He got no further. Policeman Charles Hughes, stationed at Tenth and Olive streets, stepped up to Gilberg and said: ‘I’m sorry, but you will have to stop speaking or go inside the building. You are blocking the sidewalk in violation of an ordinance.” “Very well,“ said Gilberg, stepping down from the soap box. He went in- side, followed by about half his audience. Policeman Hughes Explains. Policeman Hughes explained to Mrs. Edith Barriger, president of the Equal Suffrage League, that he was acting in accordance with police regulations, The un-militant suffragettes of St. Louis had their first clash“ with the police Wednesday afternoon at their newly established headquarters at 215 North Tenth street. In this connection the word clash is put in quotation marks advisedly. It was the nicest little ladylike clash imaginable with no more shock of col- lision in it than there is when a powder puff dabs the end of a dainty pink nose. Although the second of a series of street meetings was stopped by a police- man there was no riot and not one of the suffragettes cried: “Qn to Downing street. r e Ne, Round in Room at 1016 N.

Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, president of „ the National American Woman Suf- 5 frage Association, led in the presenta- See sets tion of arguments for a committee. She told the members it was not the pur- pose of the speakers to convert the Congressmen to suffrage, but to con- vince them that the suffrage movement was entitled to a House committee, equivalent to a similar one in the Sen- ate. Mrs. Ida Husted Harper declared the suffrage movement had grown to na tional proportions, justifying a House committee; that the movement had not- received its just treatment and that justice required that the movement should come under the jurisdiction of the National Congress. Final Vote in Public. Helen. Gardner, Miss Jane Addams, Mrs. Desha Breckinridge, Mrs. “Mary Beard and Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt also pleaded for the committee. Rep- resentative Baker of California spoke for his resolution, which would provide tion. An X-ray examination has shown that one of the vertebrae in the neck was broken all the way through at the mid- dle. This caused a partial paralysis, which indicates to the attending phy- sicians that the broken bone is exert- ing pressure on the spinal cord. Though similar cases have been cured, it: is feared that Dr. Magoon’s age will be against him in his struggle for life. Stumbles Over Carpet, While starting to go downstairs to his office on the first floor of his resi- dence, Dr. Magoon stumbled over a piece of carpet at the head of the stair- case and fell headlong. His wife heard the noise and ran to him. She found him lying at the foot of the stairs with his head doubled under his body. Dr. Magoon after receiving emergen- cy treatment was taken to the hospi- tal, where he is attended by his son and by Dr. H. M. Pierce of 44 North Grand avenpe. Neck Placed in Plaster Cast. Dr. Magoon’s neck has been placed in a plaster cast to keep it rigid, as the slightest movement of the broken bone might sever the spinal cord and cause instant death. At Dr. Frank L. Magoon’s daily noon-hour open-air campaign Tuesday when Miss Callie Thomp- gon stood on a soap box and made a speech. Wednesday afternoon the second outdoor meeting was held. Miss Ber- tha Rombauer, one of the most en- thusiastic St. Louis suffragisis mounted the soap box rostrum and made a neat little speech in which she said women were tired of letting men do their thinking and their vot ing for them, Fifty persons, three of whom were women, assembled on the sidewalk in front of the headquarters to listen to the speeches. Mere Man's Speech Interrupted. The second speaker on the program was a mere man—Isaac Gilberg, nation- al organizer of the Journeyman Tailors’ Union of America. _ Bo long as women are driven to| LAME HUSBAND UF WOMAN RIDDEN old and a recluse, murdered in her room 8 at 1016 North Eighteenth street, was 9 found Wednesday, lying on the bed. Neighors had not seen the woman for five or six days. The skull was crushed and a man’s silk handkerchief, tied about the head, held several pieces’ of cotton batting in place over the face and forehead. Whether the cotton was used in an attempt to chloroform the woman, or Was placed on her head after the fatal blows had been struck, the police could not determine. Nothing was found with which she might have been struck. The room was in disorder and bureau draw- ers had been pulled out and the con- tents scattered. Mrs, Sarah King, the landlady, found the body when she went to collect the rent. Since Miss Dene moved into the house a year ago, she had not admitted Mrs. King or any of the neighbors to her room, or permitted anyone to look inside. The little milk and ice she 7 bought were left outside the door for and only herself and a white cat nad ever been seen to enter the room. But Mrs. Estella Cooper, who lived below her in the basement, said after the disco “I’m sure I didn’t know that,“ said Mrs. Barriger. We have no desire to break the law. I shall ask the Mayor for a permit for tomorrow's meeting.“ Just to show that there was no in feeling Policeman Hughes then signed the equal suffrage petition asking the Legislature to submit the suffrage ques- tion to a vote of the people. Chief Upholdsa Hugbes. Chief Young, when he learned of Hughes’ action, said that Hughes was right. No public meeting can be held with- out a permit from the Mayor, and even when such a permit has been granted the sidewalks or streets must not be blockaded. We would not for the world do anything to offend the women who are working in the suffrage cause, but we must see that the streets are kept clear.“ London papers please copy.

The Califor- nia Commission, Chairman Atkinson said, allowed only 2% per cent for H- cense charges. During a controversy among Bell Tel- ephone stockholderg two years ago, one group of local stockholders complained that the St. Louis corporation was “milked” by the parent corporation. Complaint was made not only against the charges made for the use of the tel- ephone sets, but the stockholders also complained that the local company did not receive a fair share of long distance earnings. It was said that while the local company had to use its operators and equipment in handling long dis- tance business, it got less than ose- tenth of the revenue. Average Increase, 88 Cents. The new rates proposed by the Bell are 75 per cent higher, in some instances than prevailing rates. Residence rates would not be increased, but there would be an average increase of 88 cents 4 month on 18,260 business telephones, giv- ing the company an additional $157,000 in annual revenue, The biggest increase in the rates would be made in the unlimited service. The present rate for a direct line, unlimited service telephone, is $6.50 a month, with a rate of $5.60 a month for two-party line service. The proposed new rate would be $10 a month for this class of service, no rate being filed to cover a two-party line service: This increase in, this class of service would be about % per cent over the present rate for iwo-party line service, and approxi- mately 60 per cent for direct line. Inerease in Unlimited Service. There would be also a big increase n private branch exchange unlimite vice. A service which now costs $19.50 a mofth would cost $27 a month under the new fates. For the ‘limited | service the switchboard rate, which is now. $14.75, would be $15.25 a month. There would be some advances in the rates for measured service, but the subscriber would have the privilege of using more outgcing messages. The two- party message rate, with 600 messages A year at $3.25, would not be changed, but the subscriber would be allowed 660 messages. The direct message rate of $8.75 for 600 messages would not be changed, but the subscriber would have the privilege of 720 messages. The 800- message rate of $% a month would be $5.25 under the new schedule, but the subscriber might use 1320 messages a year. Would Bring $157,000. The $6 rate for 1800 messages would be increased to $6.50 a month, and the num- ber of messages permissible to 1920. The company estimates that while the increases would produce a revenue of $157,000 a year, $120,000 of this would be absorbed by increased wages to opera- tors, and appropriations for employes’ benefits. 2 According to a- press dispatch from Jefferson City 900 St. Louis business men have filed a protest against the proposed incréase in rates. The new schedule recalls that in Au- gust, 1909, the Bell made big reductions | in all its rates, in competition with its local rival, the Kinloch Telephone Co. Before that time it had been charging $10.40 a month—$1M4.90 a year—for di- rect line unlimited service, and $72 a year for direct line measure service. Its unlimited service, direct line, for residences was $4.50 a month, and $3.50 a month for duplex line service. In the competition with the Kinloch, the Bell cut the direct line business rate to $72 a year, the two-party line service to $60, the direct line residence rate to $48; and announced it would at the same time install four-party line service at $2 a month, to meet a im- lar rate of the Kinloch. g Kinloch Pays Dividends. The present Kinloch rates are: Busi- ness service, direct line, $72; two-party line, $60, with $6 extra for desk tele- 2 7 7 a A N 5 1 5 8 = - poe N i : .

The documentary evidence is desired for use in the trial of 16 elettion judges and clerks in that ward, who were in- dicted on charges of making false re- turns. The indictment grew out of dis- closures in the recount of the ballots in the Dyer-Gill election contest for Congress. George B. Webster, representing the judges and clerks, objected to the is- suance of the subpena, asserting that the Missouri Supreme Court has held that the ballot boxes can be opened only in election contests. Harvey pointed out to Judge Kinsey that the Legislature has amended the election laws since the Supreme Court decision, and that the law now provides that where proper precautions are taken in exposing the ballots to prevent it be- coming known how any voter has voted, the ballots may’ be produced in court. Judge Kinsey took the application un- der consideration. LIGHT the way to love with a 1 for a Christmas gift. Credit terms. .

Otto Fiala, who shot and killed his wife, Jessie, and then shot ‘himself at the home of his wife's mother, Mrs. Henry Neustaedter, in Luxemburg. St. Louis County, at 9 a. m. Tuesday, died at the city hospital at 7:30 p. m. After Fiala had lain for. more than three hours in the kitchen of the Neu- staedter home, Coroner Bopp of St. Louls Cqunty took him to the city hos- pital in his automobile. Bopp, told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he made the run of nearly six miles in 18 minutes. Dying Man Not Treated. After Dr. Edward C. Beck of 9433 South Broadway had been;called to tha house and pronounced Mrs. Fiala dead, no treatment was administered to her dying husband until Coroner Bopp ar- rived, more than two hours later. Fiala had shot himself in the right temple, the left eye and the abdomen. Coroner Bopp dressed the wounds and put. cold applications on Fiala’s head before removing him to the hospital. Fiala. had remained where he fell in a half-sitting posture with his back resting against a leg of the /kitchen sink. An autopsy showed that the bullet which killed Mrs. Fiala entered the back and penetrated the heart. Coroner Returns for Inquest, After taking Fiala to the hospital Dr. Bopp returned to the Neustaedter home and held an inquest over Mrs. Fiala. When Dr. Beck reached the Neu- staedter home he said that nothing could be done to save Fiala’s life and that it would be of no use to give him treat- ment. Dr. Beck Explains Attitude. Dr. Beck, a short time after leaving || the Neustaedter home Tuesday, told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he had de- clined to treat Fiala when he learned of the atrocious crime which Fiala had committed. Wednesday Dr. Beck said he was un- der the stress of great excitement when he talked to the reporter. I may have said what you quoted me as saying, but if I did it was on the spur of the mo- ment,“ he explained. “I was unusually excited because I nad been deeply im- pressed by the atrociousness of the crime. The newspaper publication, of course, did not put me in a light in which I would care to appear when in a calmer frame of mind. “As a surgeon my aim always has been to save life and not to destroy it. I believe there were valid professional reasons why I should not treat that man under the circumstances, Fiala Past Medical Aid. Fiala was dying and was past all medical aid. It was no place in which to perform an operation on the brain. I feared that if I attempted such an op- eration without the proper facilities [ would lay myself open to criticism by my colleagues in the profession. Such operations should be performed under the best antiseptic conditions and in a hospital. I did not send the man to a hospital because I considered that I had no right to do so, as the county au- thorities had been notified and were on their wdy to the house.“ Coroner Bopp Wednesday said that there possibly would have been, as he expressed it, “one chance in a thou- sand’ to save Fiala’s life if he had been promptly treated by stopping the loss of blood and administering sedatives to ease the shock to his nerves. When the first news of the shooting was telephoned to the county author- ities at Clayton it was érroneously stated or wrongly understood that the man who shot and killed his wife was named George Neustetter. This name was used in a short publication in the midday edition of the Post-Dispatch but the error was corrected in all later editions. * abe ‘a — 17 * I WORRY’’ when DBoftis ros. & Co., 2 „ 208 N. 6th st., oral give me credit for my 8 presente Favor 81000 Postal Savings Deposits.

Oil Corporation and a score of inde- pendent dealers trying to hold their ground against their formidable com- petitor, is responsible for a reductioa of 3% cents a gallon in the price of gasoline and 2 cents in the price of oil within the last month. The Standard Oil Co. Tuesday an- nounced its third cut in the price of gasoline within a month. It began the price-cutting war Nov. 4, according to local dealers, when it announced:a re- duction in the price of gasoline from 17% cents, and oil from 9 to 7% cents. The second cut was Nov. ll, when the price of gasoline was reduced to 44% cents and oil to 7 cents. cut Tuesday lopped off %-cent a gallon from the price of gasoline. — Independent dealers declared that the Standard Oil price-cutting has a two- fold object: to force the local indepen- dent dealers out of the field, and to drive the independent refiners out ‘of business. There has been no reduction in the price of crude oil during the month in which the Standard has been making the cuts in the price of the re- The third ter, Miss Emilie de Mun Roberts, who have been staying at the Washington Hotel, will sai] Saturday on the Cin- einnati for Europe.

Lochmoeller, LL. D., took place Tharſtts- Siving evening at 8 o'clock in the Evan- gelical Salem Church, of which the bride's father is pastor. The bride’s gown was of ivory white crepe de chine with a tunic of embroid- ered chiffon trimmed with pearls and white fur. Her veil was of tulle, held in place with lilies of the valley, and she carried a bouquet of white roses and lilies of the valley. She entered the church with her father who performed the ceremony, assisted by the Rev. Carl Pfeiffer of Clayton. Miss Frieda Lochmoeller, sister of the bridegroom, was maid of honor and the bridemaids were Miss Alice Tisch and rheumatism and backache. “From your druggist get one ounce of Toris com- pound (in original sealed package) and one ounce of syrup of Sarsaparilla com- pound. Take these two ingredients home and put them in a half pint of good whiskey. Shake the bottle and take a tablespoonful before each meal and at bedtime.” Good results come after the first few doses. If your druggist does not have Toris compound in stock he will get it for you in a few hours from his wholesale house. Don’t be influenced to take a patent medicine instead of this. Insist on having the genuine Toris com- pound in the original, one-ounce, sealed, yellow package. This was published here last winter and hundreds of the worst cases were cured by it in a short time.

Premier Barthou was defeated by a vote oͤt 290 to 265 in the Chamber of Deputies last night on the question whether the loan of $260,000,000 should be subject to taxation or immune like the existing rentes. As soon as the vote was read, the min- isters left the chamber in a body and proceeded to Elysee Palace, where they handed their resignations to President Poincare. ‘ The ministry headed by J. Louis Bar- thou, after a long and vigorous defense, fell before the combined attacks of the recently reorganized radical party under ex-Premier Cailloux and the Socialists, led by Jaures. The Government by @ narrow margin Monday was victorious in a trial of strength against the oppo- sition, the new loan being approved by @ vote of 291 to 270. , The debate yesterday was on the ques- tion of extending to the new loan the same immunity from taxation as enjoyed by the old rentes, and the Government again made it a question of a vote of Second German Presbyterian Church of St. Louis and who resides at 4522 N. 19th St., is one of the well-known and well-beloved ministers of this city. The Rev. Kingler is a very able preacher and both he and his wife are very popular with his con- gregation. He writes the following letter to the Plant Juice man at Wolff-Wilson’s: St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 25th. To the Plant Juice Man: Again and again I have suffered from constipation and the severe headaches resulting from it, so I thought I would try the famous Plant Juice I heard so much about, and I am not sorry I took the step for it proved to be a very wise one. The results from Plant Juice were wonderful on my stomach and my whole system; it refreshes and ener- gizes the whole body.

After grippe, pleurisy, pneumonia or any illness, what you need is new strength and better blood. The most certain way to get this fs by taking Vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron preparation Mrs. M. T. Gardner, Chicago, III., says: “After a very serious opera tion I was a total invalid for nearly a year and a convalescent for months therefter. I gave the remedies of a number ef eminent spegialists a thor- Gugh trial, but without deriving the slightest ‘benefit. Vinol was recom- mended. Without the least faith in the merits of the medicine, I took it faithfully, and it seemed to bring back the old color to my cheeks and the elastivity to my step which I had despaired of ever recovering, I can say, ‘conscientiously, that for nerv- ous, run-down people, Vinol is an ‘excellent remedy.” Try a bottle of Vinol.

T may be that the young folks. of today are not as fond of Shakspeare and true sentiment as were those of the elder generation, this being the om- indus charge preferred against them, but such a fact was not evident in the audience that filled the Shubert, Theater to its capacity on Tuesday evening, when Sotif@rn. and Marlowe played “Romeo and Juliet” with un- abashed fervor and A —— tender. ness. N Gray heads and white were plesitifal in the gathering, as a matter of course when a Shakspearean .repertoire ig the order of a theatrical engagement, yet the “frosty pows’’ were outhumbered by brown heads and black, yellow and auburn, and the, youthful faces under these junior .thatches glowéd with a fine appreciation of the greatest love story ever told oh the world’s stage. It was a comforting sight: to see, giv- ing one courage to believe that Adam's sons and Eve's daughters are not yet by any means completely surrendered to the sordidly material. appeal of lite at the sacrifice of the ideal and more sin- cerely valuable things of life’s living. And it was well worth while for these younger folk to be moved by the splen- did poetry of the play then in progress of interpretation, because the interpret- ing was very competent indeed and long to be remembered for its pure beauty and unextinguishable charm. - Mr. Sothern and Miss: Marlowe bring to their playing of Romeo and Juliet“ un ever-vernal ardor ‘which. is nothing less than wonderful in its seeming of spontaneous passion, so maivelously meeting the trying demands of the two title roles that comparatively: little strain is placed upon the imgination to overcome existing deficiencies in the aspect or bearing of thosé immortal lovers. The supreme test of iltusidn to this end is encountered in the balcony scene, as always has been inevitable, and this test was convincingly met in Tues- day night's performance. The Juliet of Miss Marlowe's realization was as gen- uinely love-stricken a maiden as one could wish to see. The Romeo then and there depicted by Mr. Sothern was as forlornly heart-smitten at the scene's opening and as proudly and triumph- antly lover-Jubilant at its close as even Shakspeare’s own relentless text de- manded. The two sweethearts ot an- cient Verona, the youngest and most utterly enamored sweethearts known in all the stories of ‘earth's hearing; seemed fairly to rush toward one an- other with irresistible compulston un- der love's ,urging. 9 It was a splendid encompassing of the perhous “big moment“ of the plays ringing, and the storms ot applause with. which the Shubert Theater echoed und re-echoed testified eloquently to the audience’s appreciation of the achievement. This was repeated at the termination of that other hazardous Scene, the dawn-parting of the ydéing bride and the bridégroom in Jiiliet’s chamber—after which, woeftilly and in- exorably, the great tragedy that was so vitally joyous a comedy until then, de- scended into its especial “valley of the Shadow of death“ and never again was its earlier note of love's happy dream- ing sent across the footlights. In these final scenes of swift and over- cating calaniity, as in the play's pre- devélopments, the two stars ac- themselves with genuine distinc- tion, Miss Marlowe, however, with the br opportunity in the “potion scene” 80 blackly set among the tombs of Jull- et's ancestors,. rising to loftier heights of ‘tragic power. Nevertheless, the Ro- meo then presented by Mr: Sothern, a y desperate and fate-resentful man, Was masterly in conception and re- alization. The completed task of the two stars found each well abreast of the other in a division of the night’s fairly woh honors and their performance now ukes its rightful place among the most memorable Shakspearean presentations known to the St. Louis stage. Always, until the moment of Mer- cutio’s hapless death at the hands ot : Tybalt,” there are three stars 9 5 7 and Juliet“ if the play be well cast and well played. This was true on Tuesday evéning, the Mercutio of the performance being Lewis, an excellent actor, Who for some years now. has delighted .the Sothern and Marlowe following with the good art ot his invariable revealing. Mr. Lewis loves his work, as do all be artists, and he is peculiarly at his best in the role of Romeo's meilowly cynical and thagnificently loyal young Kinsman. 9 poetic. imagery of Mercutio’s , Mab” speech was admirably. emphasized by Mr. Lewis’ } delivery ot the beautiful. lines.

There must be genuine merit to an article that has stood the test of two generations of users. In the field of medicine none has} had greater success, nor retained that success to a greater degree, than Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, which is now being used by three generations of people.. Its use in families is constantly becoming more general. The reason, primarily, is that it has merit. It is what it rep- resents itself to be, a laxative-tonic; it does not make exaggerated claims nor use coarse language to set forth its virtnes, It is a medicine, but so mild and gentle a medicine that thousands of mothérs give it to tiny infants, and yet, in a slightly larger dose, it is equally effective for grown-ups. It is for any disorder of the stomach, liver or bowels, for constipation, no matter how chronic; for dyspepsia, no matter how severe; for bilious- ness, sour stomach, gas on the stom- ach, headaches, drowsiness after eat- ing and similar complaints arising from a clogged-up condition of the bowels... It is pleasant to the taste and does not gripe. It can be used with safety and good results by any- one at any age or in any condition of health, and that person’s health will improve. Every druggist sells it and the price is only 50 cents and $1 a bottle. WM. ROSWELL TAYLOR Thousands of families throughout the country aré never without Syrup Pepsin in the house, among them Mrs. W. A. Taylor, 717 Lincoln ave- nue, Beloit, Wis. She has five chfi- dren and gives Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin to all of them as needed. Lit- tle William used to cry half the night with cramps and pain, but since be- ing given Syrup Pepsin he does so no longer. The use of this remedy will teach you to avoid cathartics, salts, purgatives and physics generally, as they are entirely too harsh. Syrup Pepsin cures gradually, but the cure is comfortable, safe and permanent. Families wishing to try a free sample bottle can obtain it postpaid by addressing Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 419 Washington street, Monticello III. A postal card with your name and address on it will do. i ~~ FOR Ri HIS CH Neckwear In pretty individual boxes, at 35c, 50c, $1; $1.50, up to $5.

Grupp came up for the fourth round seemingly strong and willing, and any danger that manifested itself immedi- ately following his bad first round seemed now to have disappeared.

A.C, BUT WON'T Wat Cleverest Near-Lightweight Gets Final Workout for Fight With Trendall. Patrick McFarland, known as “Packey,” the best man at his weight in the world with the mitts, cleverness considered, had his final workout Wednesday afternoon at the M. A. C., for his elght-round bout with Harry Trendall. MeFarland's appearance here is the feature event of the December show of the National Athletic Club, Thursday night, at the Coliseum. McFarland arrived from Chicago with his manager, Emil Thiry, and is domi- ciled at the Hote] Jefferson. Thiry stated that McFarland was in fine condition, having been worked hard for two weeks for his bout with Jack Britton, Dec. 8, for which he is agreeing to scale 137 pounds in the afternoon. Is Doing Catch Weight. For Trendall, McFarland is only asked to do catch weight, which means he can come in at whatever figure he pleases. The discussion over MefFarland's weight induced a reporter to ask Me- Farland to get on the scales, but he declined on the advice of counsel, ‘ McFarland went through gymnasium work and sparred lightly. He seemed in good condition and the overweight, if there was any, was not apparenf in fleshiness. He looks just a big boy for the class he is supposed to stay in. Trendall practically finished his work for the event today. He is in the best shape he has known for some time, being bigger and stronger than for most of his later fights. Trendall is a different boy than when he fought McFarland in 1909. The added years’ experience have been gained against some of the best men in the since that time are Joe Mandot, a near- champion; Leach Cross, another of the near-tile brigade; Willie Ritchie, now champion; Young Saylor, who tipped over the almost invincible Freddie Welsh, Grover Hayes and others. Against all of these Trendall either won or obtained a draw, with a single exception—Willie Ritchie was said to have had the first four rounds of a six- game. Among those Trendall has fought „ 212 Oxford University to Have Team of Athletes at Pennsy Relay Games PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 3. —In a letter from the president of the Oxford University Athletic Association, received at Penn U. athletic headquarters yesterday, it was stated that the English university would accept an invitation to compete at the Penn relay games next spring. No events in which en- tries would be made were specified. It is thought. here that the four-mile relay is the particular event in which the British will try to shine. Tabor, Jackson and Rudd are three men on the Oxford team able to run the mile in 4m. 20s. or better. Tabor was formerly a Brown University star. He is a Rhodes scholar at Oxford. round contest at Pittsburg. Trendall fin- ished strong in that contest. Trendall will give a good account of nimseltf against McFarland, though even his sanguine followers do not expect him to whip McFarland. Ritchie Demands $15,000 for Match With Rivers at Los Angeles, Jan. ! Willie Ritchie, the lightweight champion. has agreed to meet Joe Rivers in a 20- round bout at Vernon, Cal., on New Year's afternoon, provided that Promoter Tom Mc- Carey will guarantee his end will be $15.000., Tt is not likely that McCarey will give Ritchie this sum, for Rivers would want at least $5000 for his end and the club of- ficials would get nothing for their trouble. Jem Maloney, manager of Rombardier Wells, writes there is considerable betting on the Wells-Carpentier fight at the National Sporting Club of London on Dec. 8, at even money. Maloney says that the fact that the side bet of $2500 is being furnished by him and Wells has been the means of mak- ing Bombardier train more faithfully than ever before.

Christmas gifts and fruits and candy are to be distrbuted to the 10,000 or 12,000 children who will be the guests of the Post-Dis- patch there.

The bills were approved by the chairmen of the committees and paid on vouchers signed for the Executive Committee by its secretary, Mr. Jo- seph J.

Besides its contribution of $250 the Post- Dispatch paid the expenses of the administration including office salaries, typewriting, postage, printing, stationery and festival expenses, which amounted to $2755.63. Thus all the money expended from the fund was applied to the ac- tual necessaries of the several divisions of the festival.

SEVEN UNION WAITERS 11 FOR CONTEMPT Seven citations were issued Wednes- day by Judge Grimm against locked- out: walters and officers of their union, charging them with contempt of court in violating an injunction restraining picketing in front of Nagel's cafe. The writs are returnable Saturday. Those against whom citations were issued are: George Miller, business agent for the Bartenders’ Union; John F. Daly, John B. Carpenter, Edward Lancaster, Al Preis, Fred Vincent and a waiter known as “Frenchy.” The complaints were filed by Walter H. Sanders, attorney for the St. Louis Catering Co. He alleges the persons named “openly and flagrantly violated the injunction. Tuesday by distributing cards and accosting customers in front of Nagel’s Restaurant.“ Edward W. Foristel, attorney for the waiters, asked Judge Grimm to impanel a jury for the contempt cases. Foristel told reporters after leaving the court- room that if a jury trial is denied Sat- urday he will apply to the Supreme Court for a writ of prohibition. Three of the four waiters who went to jail Monday to serve out fines in- flicted for violating Judge Grimm's in- junction are still prisoners. Thomas Hooper, a former Noonday Club waiter, one of the quartet, was released Tues- day after his wife had paid his fine and costs, amounting to $21.15. The other prisoners, who assert they are serving the sentences as a protest against strike injunctions, are Georg? Ringler, business agent for the Walters Union; William Heffron and Oscar Close.

Klages of the growth of St. Louis dur- ing the 52 years of his remembrances, as found in the Sunday Post-Dispatch Magazine. I was 36 years ago mail dispatcher in the St. Louis Postoffice and when I was there the Post- office was on Third and Olive streets and the building on Eighth street was not finished, was but a hole in the ground, and the buildings about it were tumble-down buildings and not to be much proud of. After several years that building was finished and we moved from Third and Olive to it. I assisted in the moving and at that time it was the best building in that neighborhood. Since that time the Postoffice has moved. The eet cars were run by mules and there was n° | to keep the mall at the depot, when the 5 railroads were too late to connect with the Weste and at one time we sent to the Pacific train alone a freight car full and the pos- tal car full and theré was a truck load that thev could not take.

Missouri law now provides an authority to pass on the equities of such proposals. The experience of the past few months indicates that this authority will devote disinterested study to the reasonableness of the proposed change and that it will be inclined tn resolve any doubts that exist in favor of the paying public. — Intelligent regulation of public utilities, a policy for which it has long contended, has never been interpreted by the Post-Dispatch as presumptive of a reduction in rates in all cases, While it has be- lieved that under the old policy of franchised ex- ploitation the utility whose rates were too low was exceedingly rare, it has never asserted that there was no such animal. If it is admitted that the Bell concern is entitled to some increase, it | does not follow that it is entities: by the full-ex- tent of relief it asks. The application lays emphasis on the conclusion at which the City Public Utility@ommission ar- rived before its dissolution. That conclusion was only contingent. The commission accepted the ac- euracy of certain' figures supplied by the company. The report itself set forth that the company's methods of accounting and itg relationship with Altune parent American Telephone and Telegraph Co. should be gone into thoroughly. These are points which should have exhaustive scrutiny from the State Public Service Commis- No advance should be authorized until a most convincing and satisfying investigation has shown that it is absolutely justified by the facts. 1 - ee A VERBAL ASSAULT. The President's policy of peace and patience in dealing with Mexico did not keep him from making a verbal assault on Huerta. Is a lingual slap a sufficient cause of war? i Ae ~~ Fr THE MUNICIPAL LODGING HOUSE. | The passage of the bill creating a Municipal Lodging House organization, for the relief of the homeless during the winter months, is a step forward. But the appropriation of $2500, of which $1320 must be devoted to salaries, was too small if the Lodging House is to be conducted with due regard for sanitation and for the needs of its guests. The proposal to house the homeless in the old Four. Courts basement means that these unfor- tunates must sleep and eat in a place that is of necessity more or less unsanitary and depressing, being in the same building with the city jail and bull pen. If no better building can be found, the Lodging House Commission should make every effort to insure sanitation and comfort. This is not the best the city can or ought to do. A building should be found, at least before another winter approaches, that would be less objection- able. The object of the Municipal Lodging House being to take care of floating labor and give it due to destitution, the food supply should be ample and sustaining, and there should be no unnecessary red tape or demands for work out of all proportion to the aid furnished. To help those who need it to help themselves should be the guiding principle of this institution. = = i i What Mexico really needs is the little red schoolhouse for its children, access to the land for tts peons, riddance of greedy concessionaires and graft-hunting despots, and a short shrift under a handy tree limb for every bandit masquerading as a patriot. i A a A A THE VITAL POINT. In considering the amount and percentage of |™ profit made by the syndicate in the Brownsville- Frisco deal, it is only necessary to take the fol- lowing sentence from the statement of Mr. Wil- liam E. Guy, which, of the varying statements given to the public, seems to be the last — cate word: . The total amount of money actually in- vested by the syndicate itself was $3,981,000. On this they realized, in the sale of all lands and the railroaG, a profit of $3,010,928.45, as- suming that all cash had been received in- stead of Frisco stock. All other details are merely matters of book- keeping and ingenious figuring. .In round figures the profit in a transaction which nets $3,010,928.45 on an investment of $3,981,000 is 75 per cent. It makes little difference, however, how much actual profit was made on the investment. The nature of the deal, with officers of the road on both sides of the trading table, stamps-it as gross- ly improper. * THE. NEW MONROE DOCTRINE. Exactly 90 years to a day after James Monroe in a message to Congress defined the Monroe Doctrine, Woodrow Wilson, in an address to Con- gress, defined the Wilson Doctrine. The former was designed to protect the Latin- American republics from Buropean colonization. The latter is designed to save these republics ‘fiom recurrent anarchy. The rule of conduct laid down by the President for the future guidance of ali Latin-American countries within the sphere of the Monroe Doctrine is embodied in these words: There can be no certain prospect of peace in America until Gen. Huerta has surrendered his usurped authority in Mexico; until it is understood on all hands, indeed, that such pretended governments win not be counte- nanced or dealt with. by the Government of the United States We are the, friends of constitutional government in America, we are more than its friends; we are its champions: because in no other way can our neighbors, gto eee ee of e friendship, work ent théir own 6 5 1601 ere : 2 DIS ate recewed ettort to in- The public, however, has the satisfaction ot temporary aid, as well as to prevent suffering . Ir G. A TOH, — the attitude of subsequent: pores — — not forever threaten peaceful ‘relations between the United States and the rest of the civilized world. If we are to protect their territory, it is right that we should demand that they protect their own institutions. ‘JUDGE SANBORN’s POSITION. We agree wholly with Judge Sanborn that it would be improper for him to discuss in a news- paper questions connected with the Frisco rail- road that might come before him for judicial de- termination. We respectfully suggest to Judge Sanborn, how- ever, that it would be highly proper and wise on his part to take cognizance as the Judge charged with power and ‘esponsibility for the manage- ment of the Frisco under receivers appointed by him, of facts brought out by the Interstate Com- merce Commission, of which he says he has no knowledge except through ‘newspaper reports, The commission brought out facts showing that officers of the railroad profited largely by deals with the railroad and were members of syndicates which constructed and sold “branch” roads for the Frisco at great profit. Thomas H. West, one of the receivers appointed by Judge Sanborn, was associated with officers of the road in a highly profitable deal. Thé duty of bringing suit for restitution, if such a suit lies in law, rests with the receivérs under the direction of the Court. We submit the new facts in the Frisco situation to the eonsideration of Judge Sanborn. e — oe Jeptha Howe says that those who insist on the equal enforcement of the law, billboard law as well as other, are “meddlers.” St. Louis needs more of that kind of meddlesomeness. DIRECT PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARIES. President Wilson’s suggestion relative to direct primaries under act of Congress for President is most interesting. It expresses the public desire for something better than the machinery of se- lection that has given us the Southern delegate, the unit rule, the organization-controlled conven- tions that have often caused President-making to sink to the level of a fight among bosses. But is the plan he proposes the best that could be devised in view of the mature sentiment of the country on the subject? Is this not a matter that should still be left to the states, as it has been since the beginning of the Government, in- stead of being directed by Federal law? The equalization of representation in Republican na- ‘tional conventions, the abolition of the unit rule in Democratic convention, the direct popular choice of delegates to all convention will do a great deal toward removing present evils. The President’s attitude will be a powerful help in working for a reform of abuses in nominating our Presidents. But with the existing system perfected and made more responsive to the pop- ular desire, demand for the substitution of a n and experimental system would rapidly diminish. — = = % a Adoption of commission charters by 23 towns in Pennsylvania attests the progress of an idea. Pennsylvania would be a splendid place in which to adapt the commission plan to State one ment. = = * A SWISS IDEA. America’s army of country school teachers, wandering from district to district and state to state, year after year, barely becoming acquaint- ed with one group of children before leaving them to manage another group of little strangers, may find food-for thought in the Swiss system. In 16 of the 24 states of the little mountain de- mocracy teachers are employed by contract for life, after a year’s successful trial. It is the Swiss idea that a teacher can do more for a child if he knows the child’s individual traits than if he deals with the child as merely one unit in a company to be marched in lock- step across the barren plain of textbook instruc- tion. oo COLLECT THE BILLBOARD TAX. While Gov. Major has assumed to suspend the operation of State law for the benefit of particu- lar interests, his dangerous precedent carries with it no weight in egal and judicial authority. Certainly no policy of law-suspension is to be tolerated in the matter of the billboard nuisance. City Counselor Baird takes the responsibility of Building Commissioner McKelvey’s failure to en- force the billboard ordinance since the resistance to it collapsed. It is not within the prerogative of either official to say what laws shall and shall not be enforced. Neither can shoulder responsi- bility for neglect of duty on the part of the other. Fifty per cent of the billboard structures now in the city are said to violate the law. They should be made to conform to its. provisions. Steps should be taken at once to collect the $400,- 000 in billboard license tax said to be in arrears. Energetic measures to compel the billboard com- st that will e WEL N ESDAY E DEOE — ́—— IM a ——— * * a =, CHRISTMAS SHOPPING 3 * eg" ye Sa > Wy ~ . “ — r , JUST A MINUTE.

Roosevelt—do you recall him?— Ended their era of bliss, But nothing they wish to befall him Could equal the pathos of this: The railroads have run out of money-—— They all of them say it is so; So far from the milk and the honey, They can’t even pay what they owe. Their incomes don’t pay their expenses, And something will have to be done To save them, despite their defenses, From perishing, every one. The rates must be boosted a little, If railroads are still to survive;, Remains not a jot nor a tittle Of that which would keep them alive. From one New Year day to another The most of them don't make a cent, And they want us, in some way or other, To save them from where they are bent. There seems to be some little question If railroading honestly pays; We dislike to make the suggestion, . But the question is one we must raiss. With grafting, rebating, freebooting, And so forth, their lot was sublime, But under reform, past disputing, , They’re having a terrible time. This is the plea of the railroads, Telling their story of woe; Once they were happy and hale roads, But that was a long time ago. / Now they are spent and despairing, The business is not worth a dam, And a lot of them now are preparing To unload it upon Uncle Sam. COMFORTING MR. DAVIS. We wish there were something tha might be done to comfort the Pa Commissioner in his loss of control over seventy acres in Forest Park. In such a big park, seventy acres doesn’t im- press us as being very much. There still remain almost twelve hundred acres outside the tract turned over to the Zoological Society from its portion. Let him theoretically stand upon sev- enty acres of tennis courts and orna- mental plants and look out upon twelve hundred acres covered with tlephants and ourang-outangs. That would show im how it must look to the other peo- ple to see him have so much unsooed j ground. It is Known as the reverse process of visualization, which is often a balm. THE VICE-PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE. Gentlemen of the Congress: I do not know that there is anything I can add to what the President has said. He seems to have mentioned everything tnat can be handled at such a time without imperiling its importance with brevity, and I will therefore content myself with saying that I concur in everything you have heard. If there were a vice-pres- ident in Mexico at this time I would give you my assurance that he is on his last legs; but there is none, and I am in consequence without any peculiar’ re- sponsibility with respect to conditions in that unhappy land. This is -unfortu- nate, I think, for I might otherwise do something great. It seems unjust that one who is so intimately associated with the President should not have apy great- er part in the opening of Congress, but it has been the lot of all those silent men who have suffered obscurity in the place since the republic was found- ed, and I can stand it if they could. In a more humane age the Vice-President will be permitted to sing something, perhaps, or to read something good he has read somewhere. At any rate, thanks, gentlemen of the Congress. Tou are ever kind. RATTLING AROUND IN BILL NYE'S BOOTS. The man Willcox, who took edi- torial management of the Laramie Boomerang some months ago and sent out notices to all State papers an- nouncing himself as the only genu- ine successor to Bill Nye, proved to be the biggest joke of all. In fact he seemed to be so ali-fired funny that he forgot to look after the finan- cial end of the game and.the paper soon suspended publication pending the settlement of a mortgage held by a Laramie bank. The Boomerang has been purchased by a new com- pany, with J. L. Kilgallen of Chicago as president and editor, and win hereafter be issued as an evening paper.—Casper (Wyo.) Press. ee APROPOS WHAT?

Mr. West's. figures make it ap- pear that the sale prices was not twice the capital advanced by the syndicate, but only about 4 per cent thereon, in addition to 6 per cent interest paid on the syndicate’s advances. Assuming the correctness of Mr, West's statement, the syndicate ad- vanced $3,981,000 of its own cash and then borrowed on secutities or other- $11,089,758. . ‘of this ‘cost was $1,- 281.000 interest paid the syndicate on its advances during the construction period.
