Smith of Brookline, Mass., Says He Has No In- terest in Property. NEW YORK, Jan. %4.—James H. Smith of Brookline, Mass., said here today that he was not a son of Lord Strath- cona, late. High Commissioner of Can- ada, but only a stepson, and that he had not claimed any interest in his step- father’s estate. Dispatches from Boston last night re- ported that Smith would seek to obtain recognition as Lord Strathcona’s son and legal heir. Smith said he was a son of Lady Strathcona by ber former marriage. Lord Strathcona’s only child and daughter, now the wife of Dr. ert Jared Bliss Howard, F. R. CG. 8. lives in London and is the heir pre- sumptive of Lord Strathcona by a spe- cial act of Parliament. | “T have no interest in the estate whatever, nor have I claimed any.“ said Smith.

Howorth, an advertising solicitor, was sentenced by United States District Judge Dyer to three years in the penitentiary and fined $2000 after he had been found guilty by a jury Saturday of having violated the Mann act. Howorth was charged with bringing Mrs. William Cox of East St. Louis and Mrs. Ethel O’Rourke of Jackson- ville, III., to St. Louis for an immoral purpose. His method, according to the ‘facts developed at the trial was to in- sert advertisements for housekeepers in newspapers. The two women from II- Unols answered his advertisements, and fell victims to his schemes, according to the facts developed at the trial. Howorth is about 45 years old, and says he has been married and divorced three times. — wind. erat, THE SUNDAY FORECAST have been fighting | 961 BILLBOARDS, =| ILLEGAL ORDERED DOWN BY FRIDAY McKelvey Sends Out Notices a Says -All Standing on That Day Will Be Demolished.

NEW YORK, Jan. 24.— With a rope about her waist, Miss Margaret Wilson climbed up the side of the WHite Star liner Majestic at Quarantine today to greet her sister, Mrs. Jessie Sayre, who returned from abroad with her hus- band, Francis B. Sayre. Miss Margaret went down the bay on the revenue cutter Manhattan with Dudley Field Malone, the collector of the port. The Sea Was a bit rough at the time and the rope was made fast about her waist as a precaution. During the rough weather that the Majestic experienced, Mrs. Sayre was thrown against the door. of her state- room, wrenching her wrist. It was necessary to carry it in a sling for a day or two, but when the ship docked today she was experiencing no ill ef- fects of the injury. After a short stay in Washington, the Sayres will go to Williamstown, Mass., where Sayre will assist the president of Williams College. Complaint of Leaky Ship. Some of.the first cabin passengers on the Majestic filed a protest with the line demanding a rebate on their passage money on the ground that water leaked into the main salon, greatly inconveniencing them. They denounced the officials for allowing the liner to sail in adverse weather conditions, and declared at times it was necessary to stop leaks with rags and towels. Officials of the liner deprecated the orfiter, that the British authorities would not have allowed the Majestic to leave Southampton unless she was entirely seaworthy.” While in the harbor of Cherbourg, after having left Southampton, Jan. 14, the Majestic was rammed by a tender, which damaged a plate and necessitated repairs. This delayed her. She left Cherbourg with a gale blowing and encountered rough weather throughout the voyage. At times heavy seas swept over her decks. Capt. Beadnell remained on the bridge most of the trip. Liner ‘Sinks a Tug. Coming up to her dock, at New York this morning, the liner struck the tug John Nichols admidships. The tug was able to make its way from the scene of the accident, but later sank off the Jersey shore. The crew was saved. WILSON WILL BE ASKED TO STOP WILD GEESE Oregon Farmers Declare Birds Protected by Fedneral Law Are Destroying Wheat. PENDLETON, Ore., Jan. 24.—Alarmed at reports of Federal investigation and possible prosecution for killing wild geese and ducks despite the Federal bird law that recently became effec- tive, hundreds of farmers and settlers in the Western part of Umatilla County have decided to appeal to President Wilson to take immediate steps to stop the ravages of wild fowl in the wheat fields in that region. Thousands of acres of wheat have been destroyed, according to farmers who say that as high as 50 acres of wheat covered with wild geese can be seen in the day time, while at night im- mense flocks of mallard ducks ravage large grain areas.

Lincoln's claims as a reserve city were presented by President P. L. Hall of the Central National Bank and other business men.

A.- The United States Steel Corporation, according to its officials, will shortly have in opera- tion the first co-operative farm in this country for supplying food stuffs as far as possible to all of its employes. The project was made public today. The land adjoins the 8000 acre farm of the steel corporation, east of this city, which was bought in 1900 with a view to erecting a gigantic steel plant. This un- dertaking was later abandoned and the big acreage was turned into a stock grazing and vegetable farm. Arrangements are now being com- pleted to supply all the lake freighters with food stuffs produced on the farm. As rapidly as possible the numerous subsidiaries of the corporation in the Central States will be included in the list, until the big farm is “‘usdlving a large portion of the corporation’s em- ployes with fresh meat and other food, A three-story brick supoly hause has just been completed by the Steel Cor- poration at Conneaut Harbor. This, as a central point of distribution, will it is said. eliminate the middlemen supplying the products of the farm to the employes. The co-operative farm, which now contains 12,00 acres, is owned by the Carnegie Land Co., which in turn fs controlled by the Steel Corpceration The manager of the farm, John Cuppies, said today: “It's a big undertaking, but so far the results have been successful.“ Two years ago the farm was stocked with several hundred head of cattle and hogs. Several thousand acres of grain and potatoes were planted.

Although only relatives and family connections of the Lamberts and the Turners were present, the guests num- bered more than 200. Miss Ernestine McNear of San Fran- cisco was bridemaid and Lady Wilfrid Peek, formerly Edwine Thornburgh, was matron of honor. The flower girl was Agnes Benoist, the 65-year-old daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. Howard A. Benoist. Lambert’s brother, Gerard Lambert, of Princeton, N. J., was groomsman. The bride wore a simple gown of white satin with a tulle-trimmed bodice The veil of point d’Alencon lace was the one worn as a wedding veil by her mother. The bridal bouquet was of white orchids and lilies of the valley, A superb string of pearls, Lambert's wedding gift, was worn by the bride. Four of Lambert's former classmates at Princeton attended the wedding as/: guests. They were George fican and Edward Dezees of New York, Lawrence Smith of Plainfield, N.

Special cil Demanding Message to Bond Election’ Urged by Post-Dispatch. >»... ASSERTS THAT THE DELAY IS A NATIONAL ies | City Executive Says Secretary Houston’s Sunt gestion, “If St. Louis Can’t Build Its Free 5 Bridge; Why Should It Have a Re- gional Bank,” Stung Hearers. Mayor Kiel told a Post-Dispatch reporter Saturday that ine! 4 | would send a special message to the House of Delegates next Tues day demanding that the Hines bill, providing for a bond issue at 0 82,750,000 for the completion of the free bridge, be reported out of the Committee on Legislation and passed. Mayor Kiel, in the interview, which followed the Post Du. pateh's demand for the passage the bridge situation as a national disgrace and a ludicroug: of the Hines bill, characterized * mon. ment to the indifference of the people of St. Louis. He said he would demand that the Hines bill be passed so that a special bridge bond election could be held in April“ If the bridge bonds should be defeated by the voters, the Mayor said, the ad- ministration would then have an opportunity to consider in ; when the annual budget of expenditures is made up, whether — | 0 tax rate should be increased to provide money for * the a structure. Mayor Kiel has heretofore assumed a neutral attitude in the bridge contro- versy, declining to advocate either the Alton & Mississippi plan or the com- pletion of the bridge by a bond issue: When he arrived at hfs office Satur- day morning, he sent word to the re- porters that he had something to say ton the bridge question. Huuston’s Suggestion. The action of the House of Delegates Friday night in voting down the Bro- kaw resolution to call the Hines bill out of the Committee on Legislation and put dt on its passage had angered the Mayor. He said that, when Secre- tary of Agriculture Houston, at the Business Men's League banquet Thurs- day -night, suggested the question that if St. Louis could not build its free bridge, why should it have a regional bank, the Secretary spoke in a jocular vein, But the Mayor declared that his words nevertheless stung, and again ¢:- rected country-wide attention to the un- completed bridge. The recent introduction in Congress of a bill to appoint a commission to devise a plan for the completion of the bridge, the Mayor said, has given the city a great deal of unenviable notori- ety. ‘Unless the bridge is completed speed- ily we might as well tear it down,“ said Mayor Kiel. “In that way we could stop the disgrace that fs ha: | city like a cloud. nang over the “Last April I vetoed a tax rate. . crease bill to give the people opportunity to vote bonds for the pletion of the bridge.

The paper that is agitating the passage of this bill was demanding the repeal of the Reber Ap- proach a year ago, and yet we are asked to hurry up and build it now when we've got other propositions pend- ing. I remember back in 1906 when the sume paper invited the citizens to come up here and tar and feather me for not reporting a bill to put the bridge at Chouteau avenue, and it demanded a bond issue of $3,500,000 to build it, with, out giving us time to consider whether that would do. Now they say it is a mistake to put the bridge where it ts, and they are asking more money ta complete.” Delegate McCarthy, chairman of the Legislation Committee, followed Gal- --Jagher in replying to Brokaw's resolu- tion. „1 don’t think the member has a richt to take this bill away fram us | im this way,“ said McCarthy. ; 6 eonsidering legislation to complete the “We are 15 _ 8 committee and all others be given time to prepare amendments, and that the committees be trusted to know how h time it takes. “Mr. Brokaw is advocating the pas- 52 of a bond issue to construct an which has been declared in- J terior to another appreach b# the city's ee Department and other engi- on in House en Nev. 21. “By a two-thirds vote, the Conference Committee which struggled with this problem all last year, recommend bills for this other approuch to us for consid- eration.

But the people do not as yet fully comprehend or appreciate what has been done. Too much of the work towards the desired end has been necessarily done more or less quietly, and today the public does not know what are our several attitudes toward this matter. Nor do they know our accomplishments. Therefore they are rightfully, insistently, demanding that they be taken into our confidence, and that they be advised of our and our purposes. lay in open discussions, further postponement of final action will lead to serious, even though un- warranted, suspicion as to our motives. I think it ie our duty to bow to a righteous public demand. I think we ought now to take thease matters from committees, where their consideration is wnavoidably more or less se- cret, and bring them before us as a body, where we can openly exchange our ideas and convic- tions, and where the interested public may learn our views. Surely none of us can fear apen public discussion. I am certain that no member of this House has any reason to fear or to avoid the widest publica- tion of his views and inten- tions. Therefore let us throw open the doors and bring forth for the benefit of all the people the results of our study, and by that means let us try to arrive at an early solution of the question that will meet with approval. Therefore, gentlemen, as we now have one bill (the Hines measure) which has been passed by one branch of the Assembly, and as that bill, Council Bill 196, has been before the com- mittee to which it was referred more than a reasonable time, I move that the said bill be re- turned from the Committee on Legislation to the House, and that it there be considered by the House as a Committee of the Whole. 1 * — n — — nr nn — * — 2 ee ee bond syndicate was satisfied, he be: Meved the compnay would accept the indeterminate franchise recommended in 1912 by the Public Service Commission in lieu of the 50-year loop grant.

President Lagarus, who was absent frem the city when the Post-Dispatch attempted to poll him on the Hines amendment, declined to express his atti- tude before the meeting, and afterward said that he was in favor of the bill and would vote for it. When pressed to say whether he adyocated action on the bill in the immediate future to clear the way for the passage of bridge bonds at a special election, Lazarus said he believed there was no need of immediate action and would consent to a truce of from 10 to % days, until the London agent of the Southern. Traction Co. eabled assurance that action would not interfere with the company’s affairs. Some Councitmen had discussed a move to forcé a report on the Alton & Missiasippi approach bill pending in Rower’s cammittee simce October, but President Lazarus and others advised against the plan. It was claimed by the foes of the A, & M. measure that a majority would have voted to kill the bill Friday but they feared such a move would lead to action on the Southern i Traction bill.

Cross is a coal merchant and is in the moving business. His wife had him ar- rested Friday night. she and her daughter testified that he cursed them and tried to strike his wife. Cross said he drank regularly, but only got drunk once a month. He had tried to break his wife and daughter of the movies habit, but had failed. He had locked them out when they went to a show. but they always managed to get in somehow. Mrs. Cross and her daugh- ter were called to the stand and ques- tioned about going to the shows. Judge Kimmel asked Cross if he thought he could quit drinking. Cross said he guessed he could. The Judge paroled him to give him a chance.

The cantract provides that such changes and extra work may be exacted of the general contractor at |@ny time after the award and the price of the new work shall be determined by the architect, subject to the usual ap- peal to arbitrators. On the ground thet this informality made it legally impos- aible to consider the lowest bid, the board ignored Dall's offer and selected alternates that made Gill's total did less than the Fuller Co. proposal on the same alternates added to the min- imum scheme. Bond Is Made . While the board was considering the bids and before the award or the legal opinion was delivered, State Auditor Gordon and Secretary of State Roach made unsuccessful attempts to per- suade Dall to agree to break his word with the only Missouri surety company and give the $36,000 bond premium afd $12,000 agent's fee to political adherents in Kansas City, who were representing foreign surety companies. Gill subsequently agreed to place his bond as requested to by Gordon, Roach and State Treasurer Deal, although he had previously arranged for his surety bond with an Eastern agency. The capital commission has split two and two over the stone contract, it is reported. Lacaff and Hiller are inclined to prefer the Carthage lime- stone, while the desire of Contractor Gill to use stone from a newly de- veloped quarry in the vicinity of Ste. Genevieve is said to be agreeable to Chairman Stephens and Speer. The director of the Building Indus- tries Association discussed the stone contract Friday before appointing the Investigating Committee. The directors said the specifications’ prepared by the New York architects were so drawn that it would be impossible for a con- tractor to cemply with them and fur- nish Missouri stone, as the law di- rects, They were informed also that the sue- cessful general bidder, whose offer was third lowest on the “minimum scheme, failed to submit samples of the stone he proposed to use with his proposal, as required by the advertised contract. Late Change in Specifications. The architects’ specifications, ap- proved and published by the board, were changed by formal action of the board within two hours of the opening of bids Nov. 18, it is said, without no- tice to all centractors of the State who might have submitted offers under the changes made. The change alluded to was the re- moval ot a clause prohibiting the use of Burlington limestone in which „orowsfeet wider than one-eighth of an inch appeared. The board ex- tended thig restriction to one-fourth ef an inch, in recognition of the fact that Burlington limestone quarried in Missouri could not be found in suf- ficient quantities to comply with the first specification. Anotheg speelfication by the East- ern erchitects that prohibits eompli- ance with the contract on stone work, is said to be the provision that, the veinings and markings shall not vary more than 16 degrees from the hori- zontal.“ Expert stone contractors have stated that they do not believe enough stone for the Missouri Capitol could be quarried in Missouri in 100 years te comply strictly with thig specifica- tion. These experts point out that un less laxity is practiced by the Capi- tol Commission or the architects In enforcing the contract, the general contractor would lose vast sums in attempting to execute the work con- tracted for, Knowledge of this must have restrained all sincere contrac- tors who estimated the coat of the stone work under the specifications, they say, while these who felt they could caunt upon lax enforcement of the contract would be in a pesition to calculate on a much lower expense for stone work, Cost Difference Great. Contractors familiar with Missouri stone say that the cost difference be- tween , the best and poorest grade of Burlington limestone that could be used on the Capitol would be at least $600,- 000, and that if it is impogsible to comply with the specifications, the vie- lation of the specifications may pro- ceed to such an extent that it would save the general contractor this huge sum. The first split in the Capitol Commis- sion arose over the letting of the sub- contract for plumbing, heating and electrical work, for which Gill nomi- nated the Hanley-Casey Co, of Chicago, an [llingis corporation doing business in Missouri under à license, Commisisoner Hiller demanded that Gill show the board what offers he re- ceived from bona fide Missouri borpora- tions for the same work before he would act on the approval of the Ulinois firm. It is reported that competitors of Gill for the general contract received lower bids from Miesouri concerns than the offer submitted to them by Hanley- }Casey Co. The Migsouri law apecifics that Missouri labor and material shall be given the preference in all work per- taining to the new capitol. As a result ot Hiller's demand, the Hanley-Casey matter has been postponed untl after stone subeontract is disposed of. Although the contract was awarded to Gin Nov. 21, the only subcontracts approved to date are for the assem- blying and erection of the steel. The contract provides that time is ita es- sence and that for every day beyond July 1, 1916, that the Capitol fs not completed as per contract, the con- tractor shall be fined $350 a day. The time ts admittedly short for the per- formance of the big task and delay in getting actual work started is cut- ting down the period to a great ex- tent. | —— — Patroiman Autbeny J. Reilly Dead.

By Associated Press. LONDON, Jan. 2.— The fact that 10, - 000 coal carriers are on strike in Lon- don was brought home to the citizens today by a severe cold wave, The men left work on Tuesday, de- manding an increase of 2 cents.a@ ton for loading coal, They were receiving 18 cents a ton. Their absence from work had not been generally noticed, as the weather has been warm. Today the pinch was felt and many residents decided to follow the recent example of the citizens of Leeds, who during the strike of municipal street sweepers, gas, electricity and water em- ployes voluntarily carried on the work until the strike was broken: Private limousines, taxicabs, landaus, darts, hand barrows and even perambvu- | lators were drawn up this morning at the various coal yards, where the own- ers loaded their conveyances with coal to replenish their supply, About 100 medical students, dressed in white smocks, loaded and carted many tons of coal to the various hospitals, Hotel employes in gold-braided uni- forme, chauffeurs, fatigue parties from several of the guard regiments, trades- men and many women were among those working in the coal yards. Indications are that the strike wil net be a prolonged one, as several, © the empleyers already a nl yielded, ATTENTION MOTHERS If You Have or Know of a Deli. cate Child Read This Letter. „My little daughter Louise, age 9 years, has always been delicate, an- aemic, had no appetite and seemed listless, and we could not seem to find anything that would help her, until we were advised to give her Vinol.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. ALEDO, III., Jan. 24.—Although Rob- ert Higgins was held to the grand jury yesterday for the murder of his wife on Jan. 5, no attempt has been mad» to arrest Julia Flake, his 15-year-old stepdaughter, for the love of whom he says the crime was committed. She has admitted her part in planning the murder with a shotgun. in their home in North Henderson, III., and her let- ters have shown that she desired to have her mother out of the way, but, in spite of this, there is doubt if she will be prosecuted. Relatives of both the slayer and the woman slain are preparing for a vig- orous contest in the courts. Higgins’ father, who insists there must be some terrible mistake, is placing his wealth at his son’s disposal, for the purpose of making an elaborate defense. As 2 step in that direction, Higgins has re- pudiated the confession he made soon after his arrest and has reasserted that the killing of his wife was accidental. Preparations are being made for the naming of a guardian for Julia Flake. She has an estate which approximates $8000, part of which is represented by the family home in North Henderson. Girl Partly Breaks Silence. The girl, who had not spoken a dozen words a day since she has been in the home of Mrs. W. A.

I wish I could undo it.” The girl is of the gangling variety and has a smooth, clear skin. intensely blue eyes and a great quantity of fine brown hair. She wears nose glasses and has pretty dimples when she smiles, which is rarely enough. She trims her conversation down to „es,“ or “No” usually. “Did you know Bob was going to kili your mother?” . „es.“ „Were you there when he did it?“ “Yes, I was there, but I didn’t see him kill her.

FACKLERS, Ala., Jan. %4,—Railroad detectives and deputy sheriffs early today with bloodhounds began search for three men who last night looted the mail and express cars of a South- errn Railway passenger train near here and after starting the locomotive and the two cars on a wild run, disappear- ed on horses. The train ran without a hand at the throttle to Larkinsvile, Ala, 19 miles away, where it stopped when the loco- motive went dead.“ The two passenger hes of the train were picked up eafly today by a train from Chattanooga, Tenn., which brought the officers and dogs. The robbers obtained a sum estimated at $100 by blowing the express car safe. Their search through the mail car fail- ed to produce anything, as only second Class matter was in the pouches. No attempt was made to molest passengers. Those who ventured out when the train was halted were sent back by a patter of bullets. The bandits did their work in a lone- ly spot.

A plea for concerted action among the advertising merchants of St. Louis to bring pressure to bear upon news- rapers to discontinue the publication of advertisements of medical quacks and charlatans was made before the St. Louis Medical Society at 3525 Pine street, Friday night by Charles A Stix, rresident of the Civic League and also president of the Stix, Baer & Fuller Dry Goods Co. Stix declared the legitimate advertis- ing suffered by being printed in the sume newspaper with the advertising of the quack doctors. Persens not fa- miliar with the personality of the ad- vertiser had to acept his printed word as the truth, he said, and when they were deceived by one advertiser they tecame prejudiced against them all. Tne retail merchants do not feel they care to have the value of their adver- tising clouded by the advertisement: of the fakers and charlatans,’’ Stix said. There is reason why department stores, which are heavy users of ad- vertising should look with scant cour- tesy upon the ads of quack doctors. Ad- vertisers generally will welcome the aid 6: the St. Louis Meaical Society in pre- venting the publication of the adver- lisements of the fakers in the news- repers. If the legitimate advertisers act- ed in concert they could give the news- papers their choice of accepting the ad vertisements of business people, or that ol the fakers.” Quack Advertisements Injurious. The meeting of the Medical Society was called to protest against the ad- vertising doctors. Stix told a reporter Saturday he had for four years com- plained that the advertisements of the unethical physicians was injurious to the cause of advertising. Me are. forming. new ideas about many things,“ said Stix. “A new code of ethics. is being developed or created among business men. Its purpose is to remove from business every taint of fraud or unfair dealing. Public senti- ment has been aroused against the doc- tors who profit by preying upon the public, and who publish misleading ad- vertisements to enrich themselves. I think in the course of a few years. at the most, the charlatans will be driven out of business in every commu- nity in the country.” “Other speakers at the meeting were Percival Chubb, president of the Ethi- eal Society, Dr. Frank J. Lutz, the Rev. Joseph Lubely, pastor of Holy Trinity Catholic Church, the Rev. Z. B. Phillips pastor of St. Peter’s Episcopal Church, Dr. Mak C. Starkloff, Health Commis- sioner, and Prosecuting Attorney How- ard B. Sidener. Chubb declared the newspaper owner who published the advertisements of medical fakers should be pilloried. The publisher should be held personally re- sponsible with the quack doctor, he said, for the harm that was done. Dr. Lutz said publishers knew wher advertisements of absolute cures fo, cancer and some other diseases were printed that they were lies. The con- sideration that moved the publisher to accept the advertising, he said, was pay- ment in advance by the charlatan. Dr. Phillips, referring to the self destruction of Dr. A. J. Miller Tuesday following an attack upon him by the New St. Louis Star, said it was a ter- rible ging to drive a man to self-de- struction, but worse to permit a mar to put thousands of others to a liviny death.

By a unanimous vote the Board of Police Commissioners Friday afternoon | tabled an affidavit made by Jeptha D. Howe, former Republican political boss, against Motor Cycle Policemen Charles Benderoth and Arthur Wander, who ar- rested Howe on a charge of automobile speeding near Sixteenth and Locust streets, Jan. 12. The board followed up this action by promoting Wander from a probationary to a patrolman. Samuel B. McPheeters, president of the Police Board, told a Post-Dispetch reporter Saturday the Police Board had ordered the Police Bureau of Ef- ficiency not to give further considera- tion to Howe's charges. ‘‘We found tle motor cycle policemen had performei their duty and we took the initiative in dropping the Howe charges, he said. Wander’s Record Good. It was only a few minutes after the board had pigeon-holed Howe's affi- Gavit that it unanimously voted to pro- mote Policeman Wander. In the or- dinary course this promotion comes au- tomatically. After probationary police- men have served one year in that grade they are eligible to promotions as va- cancies occur in the ranks of the pa- trolmen. The probationary having the highest rating in merit marks is entitled to the first promotion. Wander's year of probationary service recently ended and he stood at the top of the merit list. Acting on the board's instructions, the Bureau of Efficiency made the formal recommendation that Howe's affidavit be filed and, at the same time, recom- mended Wander’s promotion. Had the Bureau of Efficiency reported that the Howe charges seemed to have enough merit to justify Wander's trial by the board, Wander would have been suspended. As a probationary with charges against him, he could not have been promoted while his trial was pend- ing. The promotion carries with it a salary increase from $60 to $90 a month. Howe's affidavit said that his arrest Was unnecessary and that he was driv- ing only 15 miles an hour When stopped by the policemen. Judge Kimmel Freed Howe. The arrest of Howe and develop- ments which followed it have caused much discussion and comment. When he was taken to the Central District Station, Howe loudly proclaimed that the policemen lied when they said he had exceeded the speed limit. He re- peated this assertion in Judge Kimmel’s police court the following day, and de- spite the fact that Benderoth and Wander swore the law had been violat- ed, Kimmel discharged Howe. Kimmel’s action in freeing Howe aroused the indignation of Grand Jury members and of President McPheeters of the Police Board. : Mayor Kiel was called before infor- mal meetings of the Grand Jury Wed nesday and Thursday, and it was said that at this conference a request was made that he revoke Kimmel’s com- mission as police judge. After summoning Kimmel to the City Hall and having a long talk with him behind closed doors, Mayor Kiel Friday paid he-saw no reason for “firing’’ Kim- mel. 4 8 Fe N 1 2 l — * * ta Sam — fii. 1 — — ———7]˙—— REVIE SATURDAY — — AG 492K — 3 . . * 1 * EVENING, JANUARY 24, 1014. 7 * ng ‘ “a > 1 } 3 — poe — 5 SUFFERIN’ CREEK T Sufferin’ Creek, where West was A wide, A bad man stole a fellow's bride, And what ensued thereat supplied The thunder for this story.

The bride, they said, was much too fair, To languish in a pirate’s lair, And one had thought the men folk there All loved the lady madly. But such, in fact, was not the case— They only liked her pretty face, And loved to see it in a place Where life were elsewise dreary. They all cared for the lady’s twins With sundry comedy and grins, And fed them blithely out of tins With kindness never weary. One day Wild Bill, the big pooh-bah Of Sufferin’, said to their Paw: “Them kids is got to have their Maw, An' I’m a-gone a-fetch her, She‘s pinin’ somewhere in the hills Fer them two kids, an’ fore she kills Herself a-grievin’' fer em, Bill’s A-goin’ out an’ Ketch her!“ Therefore, in fine old-fashioned rage, Wild Bill essayed to drive the stage, Well-knowing that he would engage The gang which stole the mother; And when they met there followed Hell So hot that when the final shel] Was fired, their mothers couldn’t tell The dead from one another. : At ‘Armageddon perished Bill, The terrible, but not until He had the pleasure there to kill The pretty lady’s captor.

CLEVELAND’S STORY OF A CRISIS. N view of the vexatious international | questions involved in the Mexican situation, the publication in book form at this.time of an address once made by Grover Cleveland at Prince- ton University is especially interesting. It is the former President’s own story of the Venezuela boundary dispute, which, in 1885, all but plunged this coun- try into a war with Great Britain—a catastrophe happily averted by the 80 ber sense of leading public men of both countries. In importance the controversy was not outranked by any other question that arose in either Cleveland administration. In this account of it, the former Prest- dent's mental grasp of affairs is at its strongest, and the telling itself is graph- le. The message of reaffirmation of the Monroe Doctrine which Cleveland sent to Congress in 1895, was the beginning of a foreign poljcy of the gravest mo- ment. Outside of the particular matter then at issue, and in spite of the bitter- est opposition at home and abroad, this policy has been followed by succeeding Presidents and undoubtedly has caused President Wilson many sleepless nights. Its logical result has been that the Monroe Doctrine, originally intended to Suarantee weak American countries from European aggression, has actu- ally spread distrust of the United States throughout Latin America, which sué- pects in every action of our Govern- ment a determination to establish its suzerainty over the smaller republics. The first part of Cleveland’s address is a summary of the long boundary dispute between Venezuela and Great Britain. For almost half a century each country had claimed a vast strip of territory on the frontiers of Venezuela and British Guina. So long as this lend was jun- gle and desert, the contention was no! very hot, but when gold was found there, it became acute. Venezuela had often begged Britain te arbitrate, but that country refused to do s0, insisting that the countries should settle the matter between them- selves, Finally, in despair, Venesuela appealed to the United States. This Gov- ernment, under Cleveland, also tried to arrange an arbitration, but John Bull Was still obstinate. Popular sympathy, fanned by jingo- ism, arrayed the American public on the side of Venezuela. Finally the adminis- tration, of its own motion, appointed a boundary commission to determine the respective rights of Venezuela and Great Britain. Cleveland, against the wishes of many of his advisers, sent a message to Congress, reaffirming the Monroe Doctrine, The British Government replied, in substance (1) That the Monroe Doc- trine was not a part of international law, but a foreign policy of the United States, and (D That the Monroe Doc trine did not apply to the matter then in dispute. The famous Doctrine, as enunciated by President Monroe, it was pointed out, waa to prevent European conquest, and did not affect territory then owned by European countries or constitute the United States an intermediary in all Eu- opean-American quarrels. A great many lawyers and political economists in this country agreed with this view, but. Cleveland's theory was the popular one. In explaining his attitude, Cleveland, in this address, tells why he enlarged the scope of the Monroe Doctrine. Ven- ezuela was a small country, and inca- pable of resisting Britain’s claims by force. Britain had obstinately refused to submit the matter to a disinterested tribunal. It was fundamental to the peace of the Western Hemisphere that Europe understand the United States would resist with arms, if necessary, any attempt to use force in such a con- troversy. With a note of exultation, the former President points out that although it ignored our own boundary commission, Great Britain did consent to arbitration with Venezuela, and the trouble was amicably adjusted. At times with fine eloquence, and al- ways with clear reasoning, Cleveland de- fends his position that the Monroe Doc- trine is a part of international law, and that his enlargement of it was vital to the political interests of the United States. Although his ‘views were as- sailed bitterly at that time, and are as- sailed today, both at home and abroad, the monograph is a valuable contribu- tion to the bibliography of the Doctrine. It illuminates the causes which have made Uncle Sam the volunteer police- man of the two Americans. (Princeton University Press.)

Horace Blake is a great dramatist, but, becoming a scoffer in his youth, uses his talents in a cynical, utterly selfish manner. Life, to him, is noth- ing but material for the drama. And. although he has a devoted wife, he sets himself the task of accomplishing the downfall of a young woman who, as an actress, has played the part of a pretty Puritan. He does this solely that, in a later play, he may show her on the boards as a fallen Puritan. In fact, his various adventures are so diabolical tha: even his best friends doubt when told of his death-bed repentance. Not so his wife, who is faithful to the end. The picture of his repentance is well drawn, but we are left with his own doubts as ta whether, when sickness saps vitality, a change or that kind can be more than delusion. The author’s view, put into the mouth of Mrs. Blake, evidently is that Both are true, the vileness and the nobility that came out of that awful cleansing,” and that, at any rate, the Christian ought to under- stand the seeming paradox.

Mr. Benson, a lecturer at Magdalene Col- lege has written nearly a score of such books, largely based on personal ex- perience, and all of a quality that will bear reading more than once. His latest, “Joyous Gard,“ is named from the legendary castle of that nante in the Morte d' Arthur,“ the title be- ing intended to signify a condition of mind into which one may retreat from the cares of life and find there joy and beauty. It is the author’s belief that we have the power to create and main- tain such a mental state. In order to accomplish this, we may and should “feed our minds and hearts on all the great words, high examples, patient endurances, splendid acts of those whom we recognize to have been the finer sorts of men.’ The book is in- tended to show how to do this.

“Asgued With Him in Panama After He Had Declined, Then Saw New York Mayor. HE WANTS LAW CHANGE ccc ab -Surprised That Canal Builder Is to Pass Up Prospective Governorship. NEW YORK, Jan. A. —The fact that Col. George W. Goethals is now ready to accept the appointment as Police Commissioner of New York City under certain conditions, at a salary of $10,000 @ year, is said to have been due to Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, wife of the former President, more than to anyone Following this announcement one was _made by Mayor Mitchel of New York today that if the position of Governor of the Panama Canal Zone should be ten- dered to Col. Goethals by President Wil- pon, it would not be accepted. "Tf language means anything,” said the, Mayor, “Col. Goethals will become Police Commissioner of New York City, provided two conditions which he im- posed are fulfilled. I expect these con- . @itions to be realized.” When Col. Goethals was first ap- proached on the subject of the police commissionership by Mayor Mitchel no direct offer was made, but the Colonel made it known that he would not accept. Mrs. Roosevelt visited Panama soon after Mayor Mitchel departed and it is dad, that Col Goethals was consid- ering the tentative offer made to him by the Mayor. Mrs. Roosevelt at once became interested and talked with Coi. Goethals about the New York Police Department, recalling Col. Roosevelt's ge ie When he was Commissioner.

Ford Jr. of 65953 Clemens ‘avenue on account ok injuries suffered when she was run down by an electric coupe driven by Mrs. Ford! She sued for $30,000 The accident occurred Oct. 27, 1912, at Washington and Pendleton avenues, when Miss Carradine was crossing Washington avenue. She was so se- verely hurt she was taken to a hospi- tal, where, she said, she was a pa- tient several months. Her lawyer rep- resented to the jury that because of her injuries she was compelled to give up her aspirations to go on the concert stage. The injuries, he said, caused a permanent scar over Miss Carradine’s right eye, and caused a droop in one of the eyelids, The day after the accident Miss Carradine had an engagement to ap- pear as pianiste at Mrs. Harvey G. Mudd’s musicale at the Musical Ants Building. She was to have played accompanist to Mme. Hesselberg, the Russian violinist. Her place on the program was taken by Lawrence Doering. Ford is president of the Ford Man- ufacturing Co. The defense contest- ed Miss Carradine was careless in attempting to cross the street in front of the coupe.

Upon her arrival in New Tork Mrs. Roosevelt communicated with Mitchel and told him there was a possibility that Col. Goethals might accept the commis- sionership. The Mayor immediately took up the question with George W. Ferkins, with the result that Perkins went to Panama and has just returned with Col. Goethals’ conditional accep- tance. N The condition he named, and which Mayor Mitchel has announced he will make every effort to meet is that a law depriving the courts of the power to review the dismissal by the Police Commissioner of police officials be passed. Another condition named by Col. Goethals was that he be retired from the army, in which he has served 34 years. This would entitle him to part pay for life, Fol. Goethals’ Conditions. On the question of forbidding review of appeal in case of men dismissed for cause, Col. Goethals: wrote to Mayor “Attractive as your offer is, I would be obliged to decline so long as the present law remains in force by which removals from the police force are subject to review with decision based on legal evidence. In public work of any kind efficiency can be secured only when the service of those engaged in it is satisfactory to superiors, and, while I fully believe in the right of every man to have a hear- ing, the decision of the superior as co the character of the man’s service should be final. “In cases where a man whose services have not been satisfactory can be re- instated by a court of review, the effect on discipline and efficiency is most in- jurious.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 244.—White House officials stated today that the first in- timation, conveyed to them officially or otherwise, concerning the plans of Col. with respect to Commissionership of New York City. was contained in his letter to Mayor Mitchel. It was said thät Col. Goethals was given to understand in- formally, some time ago, that he would be made the first Governor of the canal zone. He has not consulted Secretary Garrison or any other official of the ad- ministration @vith respect to leaving. The White House indicated that until the subject officially was brought to the attention of the Washington Govern- ment inquiry would not be made of Col. Goethals concerning his plans.

BANKERS SAY “NO FUNDS” Trust Company Closes Store and Attaches Stock to Protect Its Claim. — — —ꝓͤ,. Neighbors of William Beck, furniture dealer, of 1821 South Jefferson avenue, who were neighborly enough to cash checks for him, are anxious to know what has become of him and hopo he will return with their money. His ab- sence is the subject of a great deal of neighborhood comment. It is not known how many of his neighbours accommedatingly cashed checks for him before he left. but all who did are having then returned from the Jefferson & Gravois Trust ©2., Jef- ferson and Gravois avenues, marked “no funds.” The trust company has attached his stock of furniture. His lawyer, Hezekiah Sanders, 717 Locust street, says Beck’s liabilities are tween $1500 and $2000. Beck, commodating neighbors, says he has gone to Chicago and will be back in a few days. Mrs. Beck says he has gone to Germany to straighten up an estate and he will adjust his obligations to his neighbors when he returns. In Business Several Years. Beck has been in business on South; Jefferson avenue several years. He Is said to have an equity in the building which he has occupied as a store and residence, his family, consisting of him- self, wife and four children, living up- stairs. Last Saturday, after the bank had closed, he went to several business men in the neighborhood and, explain- ing he needed a little money, asked each of them to cash one of his personal checks. Fred Schott, of Ohio and Geyer avenues, cashed one for $60. Otto D. Fink of 6023 Virginia avenue cashed one for $65. Others are said to have cashed * for from 320 to $50. Not Seen for a Week. Beck has not been seen by any of his neighbors since that day. Monday Fink received a letter from him, which was mailed in St. Louis. He wrote that he Was going to Chicago, but would be back in a few days and asked Fink not to tell Mrs. Beck. . Monday the stock of furniture was moved to a store at Tenth street and Park avenue, where Beck’s oldest son, William Beck Jr., was to conduct the business, but thé store there was closed under an attachment obtained by the trust company to protect its claim against Beck for $800 in loans, and a small overdraft. BOOK AGENTS FINED FOR LAND FRAUDS BY. MAIL T. H. Smart, Benjamin Lange and Albert Levy Plead Guilty; Must Pay $3900. Thomas H. Smart, a book and land agent, and two of his salesmen, Ben- jamin Lange and Albert Levy, plead- ed guilty in the United States Dis- trict Court Friday to using the malls to defraud. Judge Dyer fined Smart $3500 and Lange and Levy $200 each. Smart and 11 of his salesmen were charged in indictments with misrep- resenting town lots in Spottswood Manor, N. J., which were given as premiums with a set of books con- sisting of the lectures delivered at the Congress of Arts and Sciences held at the World’s Fair in St. Louis. The set of books was sold for $59, and a lot thrown in. It was represented, according to the indictments, that Spottswood Manor was on a railroad, within easy access of New York and that the lots were valuable. The Federal au- thorities charged that the lots were in a New Jersey swamp. GET THE 1914 WORLD AND POST-DISPATCH ALMANAC AND ENCYCLOPEDIA On sale at the Post-Dispatch counter. Price 30c; by mail, Sc.

The Post-Dispateh asked the question which heads this article in connection with the effort to have the Federal Government direct the comple- tion of the free bridge. We ask it again with re- spect to the St. Louis Historical Pageant now in course of preparation. The Hist of men who have been engaged or are under consideration to Go thé principal work for the pageant Suggests the question. The Pageant Master is Thomas Wood Stevens, professor of dramatio art in the Carnegie Insti- tuts of Pittsburg; the writer of the masque is director of the music is Frederick Converse of Poston; the stage manager is Joseph Lindon Smith of New York; the poster artist is F. X. Lyendecker of New York. We understand that Will Irwin is to be press agent with sub“ con- tributors in St. Louis who know something about the city. A Chicago sculptor is under considera- tion for the work of architectural decoration and a Chicago actor for the leading role in the masque. We have no intention of decrying the talents of these men or depreeiating their value in the work assigned to them. Nor do we sympathize with the demand that none but home talent should be em- ployed. The necessary talent should bé drawn upon regardless of place. But we do insist that, if available, home talent should have a substan- tial part in the making of the pageant and other things being equal, home talent is preferable to foreign, because it is saturated with the civic spirit, the traditions, the atmosphere of the city, which givé the tang of local characteristic and which cannot be communicated to an outsider. It must be absorbed. It is incrédible that St. Louis has no music com- poser or dtrector, no poster artist, no poet, no writer, no dramatist, no painter, no sculptor, no actor, no press agent who can offer valtiable con- tributions to a St. Louis historical pageant and masque. Is St. Louis so bankrupt in art resources that St? Louisans can not do more for our pageant than give an Indian war whoop and fill the list of “supes” and choristers? We know better. The best pageants are rédolént of the soll, in- spired by local spirit and enriched by local re- sources. They develop local taleht and local art spirit for the future. No matter how brilliant the foreign spread, it leaves the community cold and without train- ing for other similar éfforts. The pageant seems to lack a strong local di- rector-general who is capable of so blending home and foreign talent as to assure the happiest re- sults. The work seems to havé been turned over to outsiders who look upon St. Louis as a Boeotian village. _ 7 1 1 It is none too early to arrange for a vote on the new charter early in June. If 14 months is not enough time to frame a charter and prepare the people for a verdict on it, how much time would be sufficient? ‘= = „ THE “DISSOLVED” TEL-TEL TRUST. How much felief from such conditions as the Post-Dispatch has shown to exist in the Bell tele- phone lines of St. Louis is provided in the agrée- ment between Attorney-General McReynolds for the dissolutton of the American Telephone and Telegraph Trust? The telephone and telegraph fields, both occu- pied heretofore by the trust, were to be separated. we were told. The “parént” telephone company, working in its own field, was to make no more purchases of competing telephone systems. Inde- pendent systems were to have the right to utilize Bell facilities on reasohable terms. But to what extent is the combine wholly within the exclusive telephone field to be dissolved? Are any local systems already purchased, and con- trolled to be emancipated? Are subsidiaries: robbed by unfavorable contraéts and interlocking directory agreements to be guaranteed the same reasonable terms which independent systems are | uaranteed in relations 1 the parent“ Bell company? Unless some of these things are provided for, the voluntary dissolution will be hardly more satisfactory than some prior dissolutions enforced by court order. Diversions of local Bell revenues through rentals for apparatus and contracts for the lion’s share of receipts from long-distance messages are typical instances of trust exploita- tion. Subsidiaries, not only in St. Louis, but throughout the country, suffer from them. The State Commission can prevent the trust- depleted treasury of the local subsidiary from being made an excuse for new charges on the pub- lic. Its power to force fundamental edies, to compel the dissolution that really dissolves, may be doubtful. if the city government will pass the Owen pure milk bill, and then enforce it strictly, fewer Httle white coffins will go to the cemeteries of St. Louis next summer. The least s great city can do is to give the wee ones a chance to get started in life without being poisoned by dirt or adulterants in the milk which is for many the principal article of their diet. * * * Dun b VENIOE'S GAMBEI¥G operating st Venice have been returned by the grand jury of Madison County, Illinois.

N the side of a high mountain ohce upon a time there lived a dwarf. He was ugly to look at, for his head was large and his arms very long and reached almost to his feet and his legs were very short. But he was very strong and sometimes he would pick up a tree with its roots and throw it down the side of the mountain, frightening the people in the valley out of their wits. And some- times he went into the little town at the foot of the mountain and hid behind trees, and when the children came that way he would jump at them, making the most grotesque faces and tumbling about, while the children ran like frightened sheep for their homes. But he never hurt anyone, and the fathers and mothers told their little One day while he was in the village a little girl who was begging from door to door saw him hiding behind a treé and she asked him to help her, as she had not had anything to eat that day. The dwarf began to jump about and twist his face into all. sorts of dfréad- ful shapes, but the little -beggar gir) did not run away. She stood looking at him with tears in her eyes. “Aren’t you afraid of me?“ asked the dwarf at last, when he saw he could not frighteh her. No,“ replied the girl, know you would not hurt! me, and 1 am sorry for you because nd one loves you.” “How do you know that?“ askei the dwarf. “Becausé you make such terrible faces.. If someone loved you they would feel badly to see you do such things und ask you not to do 60.“ But perhaps I would do it if they did,“ said the dwarf, who had stopped his antics and was sitting on the | ground. “Tl do not think you would,” said the girl, for your eyes look kind and I am sure you have a good heart: it is a dreadful thing not to have any- one to love you.” “How do you know," asked the dwarf; ‘don’t your. father and mother love you?” 1 haven't any father or mother and I have no home, said the little girl. The dwarf sat very still for a few minutes and then he said; “Ate you very hungry?’ The girl told him she was, and the dwarf told her to come with him and he would give her food. He led her up the side of tio mountain to thé eave where he lived. He was a good hunter and had verison and with vegetables from his #ardén he soon had a nice dinper ready for the girl. While they were eating they heard a groan whieh seemed to cone from behind the cave, ang they hurried to see what it was and there, under a big rock that had fallen upon him. lay an old man. The dwarf lifted the rock as though it had been a small store and picked up the olf man and carrie! him into the cave, and then he bound herbs oh his wounds end made him &s, comfortable as he could. “You must bd very strong,” said the little girl, “to Htc 80 large a rock, and now I know was right when I said you were kind, for you Saved the old man's lifé and you kept me from starving.“ The dwatf did not feply, but the nent morning the old man “You urs the dwarf who comés into the town and frightens the childref, but you canhut be really bad or you would not have saved my its.

Benny Meyers, the St. Louis boy who was formerly with Brooklyn, and who was later shipped to Toronto, while he has not signed a Federal League contracts, is one of the younger set who believes the Federals are not only come to stay, but that in three years the league will be the strongest of the three major organizations. Only Need the Chance. The minor leaguer of today is the big leaguer of tomorrow,’’ quoth Meyers. “All they are waiting for is the oppor- tunity to ‘go up.’ With only two major Fed League Is Players’ Salvation.

Clubs with a complete set of regulars buried or hid away super- flous talent in some ‘bush’ club. “These lads and the substitutes carried on the benches, who seldom get a chance to work, will be brought out and developed by the Federals. They will now become finished prod- uct years before they otherwise might have done. “If there is a chance for the play- ers to show favoritism, the Federal league will surely come in for it, as most of us will be indebted to it for several benefits, even though we don’t happen to be employed by the in- vaders.“ * * © That No Decision Jest. ECISIONLESS boxing contests ought to go to the rubbish heap. Not only do they detract from the in- terest of the spectator, lead to endless discussion and utterly fail in the mat- ter of breaking up betting—which is the supposed reason for their existence —but they contribute to fareical shows and to misrepresentation by boxers themselves. : As a case in point, one might mention the recent lightweight contest between Benny McGovern and Cal Delaney at Cincinnati, Press dispatches to St. Louis gave McGovern the decision on points. Cleveland dispatches read that Delaney had won. Cincinnati papers were of varying opinions; one conserva- tive sheet gave the verdict to Delaney. Each fighter is now in a position to represent himself as conqueror over the other, with a newspaper clipping to back him up. * * * ND that isn't all. The bout will have to go into the record books as a “no decision” one, where all hope of gleaning information as to its outcome will be lost. A referee giving decisions from th» ring would prevent all confusion as to the merits of fighters, provide records that could be read with some hope of getting information and make certain that all boxers at all times would be doing their best. leagues in the field, opportunities were | — — Pikers Weakened for Match With Wesleyan Quint Capt.

The Pikers will inaugu- rate its first swing around the south- ern end of the M. V. circuit Feb. 1, when they open at Columbia. Before the game with the Tigers, Coach Edmunds plans a few changes. His present plans are to use Underwood at center in lieu of Modisette, while Berry will be switched to forward to make room for Maenner, who is ex- pected to have worked off his condi- tions by that time. Underwood win show against Central Wesleyan at guard tonight: French and Berryhill win Regiment Teams in Real Test at Armory Tonight Company A Must Win From Company K or Forfeit Chance for Basket Ball Title. The Company A basket ball flve will strive to even matters in the Regi- mental League when that quintet meets Company K tonight. The latter team has won every game played this season, while the former has been defeated but once. Providing Company A wins tomorrow night, the league leadership will stand a tie and, conse- }quently, a rubber game will be neces- sary. The league is comprised of six teams, the remaining fives having been entered by Companies I, D, H and A seconds, but as these teams have met defeat sey- eral times they are entirely out of the race. The struggle for third position in the standing has also created some attention, as the two contestants, I and D, ‘are evenly matched. Both are at present on even terms. assuring a hard-fought contest in that setto. The remaining teams have not proved to be of much consequence, one team, company B dropping from the league because of its in- ability to cope with the stronger companies.

The meeting today is neither ‘more nor less significant than those whic have preceded it, and none of the St. Louisans, prior to departure, would intimate developments that might re- sult from the conference, “Just another comparison of notes on progress of the clubs in getting down to business,“ was the way Walter Fritsch sized up the gathering. More can be done in one meeting than could be accomplished by a week of teie- graphing and leng-distance et he added. The fondness of the Federals for league gatherings will cost its promot- ers a pretty penny. Not less than a dozen conferences in different cities of the. Union have been held since the close of last season, while scouts and magnates of the league have been run- ning hither and thither, helping the road companies materially. Nothing that developed during tho past 24 hours has tended to show a weakening on the part of the outlaws. In fact, the organization has apparent- ly recovered from the shock of last Sat- urday, occasioned by premature reports cf impending collapse, and is going ahead nicely. Stifel the “Main Guy.” Among the developments Friday, in the Federal League world, was the re- port that Philip de C. Ball, president of the Mound City Ice and Cold Storage Co. of this city, was heavily interested in the Federals. Ball’s connection with the Federals has been active for sev- eral weeks. The extent of his interest will not be known until the new incor- poration figures of the local club are announced. One player, signed by the Federal League St. Louis club, was reported to have received advance money in the form of a check bearing Ball's signa- ture. a The lease of Handlan’s Park, accord- ing to a real estate authority, bears the name of Otto Stifel only.

Charles Weeghman President of the local Federal league club, and William M. Walker have leas- ed from Edmund J. Archambault, of Milwaukee, the block of land on the.east side of North Clark street and Seminary avenue, between Addison street and Waveland avenue, for:99 years from Jan. 1, at an annual rental for the first ten years of $16,000 for the second term of ten years $18,000 and for the remain- der of the term $20,000 The tract comprises 337.000 square feet or a trifle over eight acres. The average annual rental is $19,393, which capitalized on the basis of 5 per cent is equivalent to a land valuation of $387,850. The land will be used as a ball park for the Federal baseball club and architect Z. T. Davis has been commissioned to prepare plans for the grand stand; on which construction will be commenced at once with a view to its completion within 90 days. crete and will have a seating capacity of 25,000 people.

In the seventh, however, the Western whirlwinds cut loose and two beautiful runs gave the St. Louis pair the game and the match. Waterbury’s Serve Counts. Waterbury and Whitney were at their. best in the sixth game and, with Water- bury serving, the Easterners, by some of the prettiest play of the tournamen*, put together eight aces and ran out the game at 15 to 6. It was a dying effort, however, for although the gallery was lulled into a false security, thinking that the match was as good as won, and that the veterans were to triumph as the result of a superb rally and ““come-back.’’ Wear suddenly put on full steam ahead in the seventh game, serv- ing beautifully, so that he and his part- ner scored geven aces in the fourth hand. Nearing the end the Wasterners made their last rally, pulling up yntil the score was 10 to 9 in favor of the yisitors, whereupon Wear, by tellingly accurate Play, tallied five aces in quick succes- sion. Waterbury made a desperate ef- fort to save the game on the very last shot, barely reaching one of Wear's neatly placed drives. To the gallery it looked as if he had made a wonderful “get,” but the referee ruled “not up.“ and the match went to the Westerners. who will play in the finals today. The early match on the day’s schedule failed to materialize, for George Clark failed te show up at the appointed hour to play ro his partner, G. Courtney, against G. R. Fearing and H. W.

I fielder, formerly with the court coverer, and what he lacked in delivery his partner made up, so that although the .mewest racquet expert weakened a trifle toward the close of one of the most brilliant matches ever placed in this city, his partner came to the rescue in splendid style, and the pair showed the most convincing team- work of the present series. Davis was deadly with his back-hand strokes in the right hand court, and had an uncanny pickup that puzzled the vet- erans, Whitney and Waterbury, from start to finish. Again and again he made what seemed to be impossible re- coveries and, starting with a really easy service, was a terror once he got under way. Contest Stubbornly Played. The westerners accounted for the match by the score of -14—17, 15-4, 15—9, 14—17, 15—12, 6—15 and 15—9—a bitter con- test that at one time seemed to lie in the lap of the two Eastern ex-cham- pions. The Western team was a remarkable combination in the matter of build, Da- vis, tall and husk; Wear slender, but with any amount of staying power and a brilliant service that he cut loose at the psychological moment. Left-hander and right-hander worked splendidly in combination, showing the effect of plen- ty of practice and close study of each other's methods. Whitney and Waterbury played their usual sound game, placing beautifully to the corners and nicking the tell-tale again and again. These smartly exe- cuted strokes would have been effective against some of the best men in the country; but the team was reckoning YALE DECLINES PENNSY CREW’S OFFER.OF MATCH PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 24.—Yale’s crew will not meet Pennsylvania on the Schuyl- kill on April 11, as had been expected.

Breaking Triumph With Men- delssohn's Concerto. TWO ENCORES DEMANDED] gen, Max Zach’s Orchestra Heard in Mozart Symphony and De- bussy’s Futile “La Mer.“ — By RIPLEY D, SAUBDERS, RITZ KREISLER, soloist of Fri- le day afternoon's concert by the Symphony Orchestra at the Odeon, to be repeated on Saturday evening, won the distinetion of receiv- ing the most enthusiggtic welcome of the present musical season in St. Louis and confirmed his rank as the best-be- loved fiddler now befere the American public. The authoritative means by which he accomplished this pleasing and well-de- served triumph was his interpretation of Mendelssohn's great Concerto for Violin, Op. 66, a masterpiece of the world's violin Hterature, whieh inevi- a tably reveals the worthiness of its player or relentlessly exposes the un- worthiness. ‘ Kreisler presented it not only with | fauitiess technique but in a mood, of: such fine understanding of ite message that his performance must needs hold] 7 a place in one’s memory a4 mark- ing with a red letter of soul’s content | the day of its hearing. The blended strehgth and tenderness of this artist's work at its best was never more fully in evidence than now. He seems to stand as the very embodiment ef 2 supreme violinist, equipped at every point for the completest possible expe- sition of the virtues ef the most ase man and emotionally moving ef al mu- sical instruments, The revelation began, as @ matter of course, almost with the beginning of Mendeissohn’s score, which demands of the solo violin so early @ sounding ef the leading theme of its melodic thought. It grew in beauty with the lovely cadenza with which this first vio- lin utterance is terminated. The sec- ond movement of the gomposition, still emphasizing the solo yoice, as the tone- master dominant, intensified the appeal of music in its purest form, and from that moment until the cloge of the con- certo, the Kreisler fiddle wag the lyric throat of one of the sweetest outpour- ings of sustained song to which the song-sweetened walls of the old Odeon have ever echoed. There was little cause for wonder- Bebe” 2 Solid 5 443 1888382828844 . a 2 225 e * * 8 * > . Hebe ig 2 ee — i ine ER,, — | Yaa essing. 1 . . e Mik . Anna Gees, JACCARD’S, Broadway, cor.

Wilson, 86, 50823 Cabanne: apoplexy, BIRTHS ment at the fact that the applause which fellowed the Kreisler-Mendele- sohn triumph was so everwhelming in volume and so long maintained that the soloist of the day found himseif com- pelled to respond with two encores, his own Caprice Viennoise” and Reeita- tive and Caprice,” which added to the delight of the afternoon’s bringing. Even then, with the matinee concert terminated, the audience remained seat- ed, applauding again and again in sheer gratitude of soul. The orchestra finely distinguished itself in the songful geore of Mosart's [Symphony No. 89, in E Flat,” an old- l tashioned score not in the least ashamed of being so frankly melod- lous that it may be enjoyed for the melody’s sake alone. The interpreta- tion of the second movement, the an- dante, was especially eharming, with the famous menuetto third movement also presented at its exquigite best, and the composition as a whole was most appreciatively interpreted. 80, too, was Debussy’s “La Mer” well handled by Max Zach's men, the only trouble here being that Debussy says so little to his public. He is a mas- ter- user of the orchestra in novel ways, but novelty in the employment of orchestral instruments does not take the place of genuine musical in- spiration. Of genuiné musical inspiration De- bussy has but a meager supply, if any. A sort of mountebank audacity essays to cover this jack of creative musical thought, but at the close of a typical Debussy score such as 1 Mer,” the final impression ip that of grievous disappointment. This is due to the sorrow then felt that a com- poser should know his orchestra s0 intimately and be so beggared in his own native gifts that he can util- ize it only as a charlatan might ul ize his cheap equipment of yokel-fool- ing devices from the tail-end of a Sypsy road-wagon. In the Audience. The audience was quite an unusval one, in which were many strange faces, accounted for by the numbers of persons from nearby towns who, came for the Kreister matinee. There were a great many of young giris and boys, evidently students of the violin, who arrived with their violin cases under their arms as though they had just came from @ lesson. There were more than the usual number of blind persons who attend the concerts every week and more than the usual number of nuns, with their charges from various schools, who never fail to hear the orchestra during the concert season.

Still, as you suggested, corned cabbage make an excellen: drop a hint about what the morrow's morning repast should be? „Clara Mudridge-Smith is thinking of going away for rest and recupera- tion,” Mrs. Jarr explained. “And it just occurs to me that I need a rest, too se “From the ceaseless round of social activities?” asked Mr. Jarr.” “Yes, now the Cackleberry girls sim- ply won't go back home and I've plainly asked them to go and they only say if you knew how scarce eligible young men are you wouldn't wonder we do not care to return—so 1 think I'll have Wearing it all the time when Gladys Cackleberry wasn’t, and Gladys carried on so I had td buy one tor her—and now I have none of my own, and they are lovely to run to the door in to get the mail when your hair is up in kid curlers, for I want to tell you that these so-called electric curlers have no electricity in them and Mrs. Gratcn, who sells them, confessed to me that she simply tinctures them with ol] of pepper and asks the ladies she sells them to to touch their tongues to them and feel the electricity, because the curlers are made of solid radium, which Ln charged with electricity, and elec- ust make a jolly lark of it!“ pank Towers?“ “Well, if vou'd only Usten to a per- son trying to explain, I'd tell you that the Cackleberry girls are a visitation and not visitors any more, if they won't go away, I will, So the best thing I can do is to have a tiervous collapse and go out and spend a few days with Mrs. Jenkins at East Ma- laria.
