[5 NEGRO DG WF FOLK PRACTICALLY ORDERED 10 LEAVE MREYNOLDS' ROOM Counsel in New Haven Inquiry Says He Didn’t Want to Remain, Anyway. By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, May 13.—Charles 58S. Mellen, former president of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, will testify tomorrow before the Inter- state Commerce Commission in its in- quiry into the New Haven's affairs, notwithstanding earlier indications that the inquiry might be ended lest immun- ity. be given witnesses. This was an- nounced by Joseph W, Folk, chief coun- sel for the commission, after a stirring conference with Attorney-General Mc- Reynolds. Following adjournment of the hearing early in the day until next Monday. Folk and Interstate Commerce Commis- sioner McChord went to the Attorney- Generai’s office, where Senator Kern of Indiana and Senator Norris of Nebraska had preceded them. Witbin a few min- utes McChord and Folk left the confer- ence showing evidences of excitement. fnvestigation to Go Ahead, After the conference Senator Norris, author of the resolution which insti- tuted the New Haven inquiry, went to Folk..made this statement: ‘We are going right ahead with this investigation and Mr. Mellen and direc- tors of. the New Haven will be put on the stand, We are going to bring out the truth—the whole truth—no matter whom it hits and whom it hurts.’’ Senator Norris said: “In my judgment nothing has devel- oped that should change the commis- sion’s program. I see no reason why it should not push the case to the fin- Wh and put Mr. Mellen and the others on the stand. It is a matter of justice to the people that every fact in connec- tion with the rotten operations that went on for years should be brought out,”’ Folk was asked why he left the con- ference -at McReynolds’ office. When he hesitated about replying Senator Nor- ris said: “Well, I will tell you. He and Com- missioner McChord left because they practically were asked to do so by the Attorney-General. ? “Didn’t Care to ey Lor eem Folk smiled and remarked: “As the Senator has told you that, I will add that the conduct of Mr. Mc- Reynolds was such that we did not care to remain.” At the present time it is the inten- tion to proceed tomorrow with the ex- amination of Mr. Mellen. That is the judgment of the commission and that probably will be the procedure. At the outset of the conference in Mc. Reynold’s office, the Attorney-General declared that the whole matter wag within control of the commission. Reference was made to suggestions that the examination of Mellen and di- rectors of the New Haven might give them immunity from prosecution by the Department of Justice. McReynolds then read a letter sent to the Interstate Commerce Commission yesterday, in which he suggested that the commisston carefully consider the effect of the examination of Melien and others. om any criminal prosecution which the Government might desire hereafter to institute. He then said his letter expressed fully and clearly the position in the matter he always had maintained; that the question. was within the control of the commission and that he was content that it should determine upon and pur- sue whatever course it thought hect . would subserve the public interest. The letter ‘follows: “May. 12, 1914,~Interstate Commerce Commission, Washington, D.

POLICE FIND GIRL WHO WAS KIDNAPED WOMAN CONFESSES Hellas, Matler, Who Was Ab- ducted From Carr Park, Re- covered in Granite City. Hellas Matier, 4-year-old daughter of A. B. Matler of 1237 North Sixteenth street, who disappeared mysteriously from Carr Park Sunday evening, was found in Granite City at noon Wednes- day by St. Louis detectives. Shelton Cobb and his wife, Josie Savage Cobb, were arrested and brought back to St. Louis after the wife confessed she had kidnaped the child because she resem- bled a daughter who had died in Kansas City. | Mrs. Cobb, in a statement to the de- tectives, also implicated Peter King She was walking in Carr Park with Cobb and King at 9:30 p. m., she said, when she saw the child and was seized with a sudden impulse to possess her. She said she grabbed the child in her arms and hurried away from the park. Went to Granite City. With Cobb and the child she boarded a McKinley car and went to Granite City, where the three spent Sunday night at the Royal Hotel. King, she said, re- mained in St. Louis. On Monday, she said, she moved to BIA Twenty-first street, where she had remained until arrested. When de- tectives fourd her at that address, the missing girl was sitting upon her knee, apparently contented. , Detectives then went to the Ameri- can Steel Foundry, where Cobb is em- ployed, and arrested him. Cobb and his wife were taken to the Granite City Jail, where they waived extradition and were brought to St. Louis on a McKin- ley car. The child also was taken to police headquarters. Matler and his wife, assisted by neigh- bors and the police, had searched every- where in the vicinity of their home and Carr Park, without result, for the girl. The first clew was furnished to the po- lice Tuesday night by William K. Her- zog of 1947 D street, Granite City. Herzog told the police he had seen a young woman and young man board a McKinley car at North Market street about 9:30 p. m. Sunday with a little gir! who answered the description of . the missing child. He said he followed them {when they left the car at Granite City and watched their efforts to obtain a room. He described the couple. ‘ Detectives immediately began working on the clew, with the result that two of them, who were in Granite City Wednes. day, discovered the missing girl in the custody of Mrs. Cobb. Mother Hysterical With Joy. When Mrs. Matler, at her home, was told the child had been found she sank into a chair, almost in ‘a faint and would have fallen to the floor but for women neighbors who ran to her. She wept and laughed by turns, the good news having caused her to become hys- terical. Matier, who was almost equally af- fected, hurried from the house to go to the police station for verification of the reported finding of the child.

Mellen, as a witness, telling the truth, would be a thousand times more valuable to the p’iblic than Mellen could possibly be as a defendant. “The ‘situation is now as it has been from the beginning. It is insisted that all witneszes having knowledge of the matters under investigation be placed on the stand and they will be questioned without limitation as to the questions to be asked. The whole truth will be brought out if it is possible to do so, no matter whom it hits. “The great question before the Amer}- can people today is to secure honesty in the management of the railway systems of the country. The revelations already brought to light in this investigation, and the further disclosures that Mel- len and other witnesses can make, should be of immense value, and result in legislation that will cause it to be just as grave a crime to plunder the rublic through a corporation as it is now personally to rob an individual.” Mellen arrived in Washington yester- day, bringing a trunkful of papers re- lating to transactions concerning which he will be questioned. Folk went over many of these matters with him last night at his hotel, the two conferring un- til 2 o'clock this morning. Developments in Situation.

First Officer Bange, with a marlinspike, is said to have fought the negro passéngers from the steerage, who tried to jump into the sea. After the explosion there was almost complete darkness. Only the oil lan- terns were burning. Out of the steam- filled compartment four men staggered. They were attended by Miss Mabel El- liott, whose presence of mind, under frightful conditions, all the passengers joined in praising. Some. of the burned men begged to be thrown into the sea. Oth:r passengers fainted. It was due to Miss Blilictt’s efforts, as much as to those of Officer Bange, the Passengers said, that a panic was averted.

FEARED PITAL CRISIS Renewed Efforts Made to Get All Possible Americans Out of Mexico City. VERA CRUZ, May 13.—Brigadier-Gen- eral Funston need fear no trouble along his outer lines if a letter sent into the city last night by Gen. Rubio Navarrete, in command of the advanced positions of the Mexicans, is a true indication of the attitude. Gen. Navarfrete addressed the editor of a local newspaper, Los Suceso, re- garding the reported movement by his forces against Vera Cruz. “I beg that you deny this news,’’ said Gen. Navarrete, ‘‘since, in acordance with orders which we have received, all offensive movements have been stopped while the armistice lasts.”’ The Americans are informed regard- Ing the position of the Mexicans in the vicinity of their outposts and know rea- sonably well their strength. So weak ave they at present that the staff has felt no uneasiness regarding the out- come of any aggression, but they have feared somewhat the complication which might follow the harrassing of their lines by small bodies of troops. Fears of Capital Crisis. Gen. Navarrete’s assurances, although not reaching the. American headquarters in official form, have served to convince Gen. Funston that there is no intention to precipitate trouble at this quarter. There does exist here, however, a vague apprehension of important developments at the capital. Staff officers appear con- v.nced that Provisional President Huerta must face a crisis within a few days. it appears improbable that the rebeis will be in a position to attack the capi- tal for many days and perhaps weeks, but there is a growing “eeling of unrest among the residents and a few high officers in the army now stationed at Mexico City are said to have been mani- festing signs of unwillingness to con- tinue supporting a man whom they re- gard as already defeated and with whose policy they do not fully agree. Stories that Gen. Huerta is strength- ening the city against attack continue to arrive, and some are that he is for- certain positions and erecting wire entanglements. He has withdrawn to the capital more men of his army, taking troops, it is said, even from the districts between the capital and Vera Cruz. Gen. Maas hie established headquar- ters at*’Cordoba and many of his field pieces, which a week ago he had as far south at Pacho Del Macho, have been moved north to Cofdoba.. No mofe troops, so far as can be as- certgined here, have been moved in the direction of the American position. Only 3000 Mexicans Near. The Mexican outposts, while chiefly of a detached character, are almost in sight of the American lines, but it is reasonably certain that the total num- ber of Mexican troops within striking distance is less than 3000 men. In view of the undefinable fear that sharp developments at the capital may be of a character to increase the danger of Americans there, the American Con- sul here has renewed his efforts to get out, as soon as possible, as many as he can.

Tucker of Perryville, Mo., a seaman on the battleship Minnesota at Vera Cruz, writing to the Post-Dis- patch under date of May 5, urges par- ents to send words of encouragement and not expressions of apprehension for safety when writing to their sons who are with the navy in Mexican waters. ‘Parents should not write letters of pity and worry to their sons,’’ he writes. “They only dishearten the. boys by tell- ing them they are afraid they will be killed and that they never expect to see them again. Tell them you will bake a nice pie or chocolate cake when they come home on their furloughs. They will enjoy that a great deal more. Then, if you don’t get a letter for a few Give will are dead or expect to get shot. them a little courage and they come out on top with honors.’’ “Brave When 20 Miles Away.” Describing the. effect of the first land- ing at Vera Cruz, he says the Mexicat: braves “beat it four bells to the hills,’’ leaving the police and civilians to figh* “These people are brave,’’ he writes, ‘when they are 20 miles from a soldier or a sailor.”’ Other interesting portions of Tucker's letter follow: “They tried to slip something over on us by putting guns and ammunition into coffins, which they carried along the street as though they were having a very. sad funeral. ._A sailor got wise. He said the ‘spigs’ were limping instead of weeping, so he took a chance and found a lot of guns and ammunition in the coffins. The women placed ammu- nition tnto the bread they baked and sent it to their men. “Tt was a sad parting when the Mon- tana sailed for New York with our 17 heroes. All ships had their men lined up to view and respect our dead. All ships’ bands played ‘Nearer, My God, to Thee,’ and our national airs. Our colors were at half-mast, but the boys are still ready to fight and avenge the deaths of their mates. Prison Has Torpedoes, “The Minnesota .could have been blown up by torpedoes from the prison, which had four torpedoes, five warheads and two revolving tubes, eight and twelve inch guns had their eyes on them and would have sent over a little hot steel and a little gun cotton for company. This prison besrs a hard name. Maximilian was killed at this place.” Tucker enlisted In the navy in St Louis March 23, 1912, and after serving his apprenticeship at a training station he was assigned to the Minnesota.

The Constitutionalists agents as- serted Zapata had recognized Carranza as his chief and that there were among his ranks many men from Mexico City who would not countenance pillaging. Carranza’s rebels continued their at- tack against Tampico today and the Constitutional leader perfected plans fur the establishment of a stable govern- ment in the northern states.

WASHINGTON, May 18..— Nelson O’Shaughnessy, Charge d’Affaires of | the United States Embassy at Mexico City until President Huerta gave his passports to him, conferred for an hour last night with President Wiison. It is understood he told the President frankly that patience in dealing with the Mex- ican situation was regarded by the Mex- icans as vaccillation and timidity, and that vigorous action was the one thing they could understand. The diplomat, on leaving the White House, was smil- ing. “Do you think, under the existing con- ditions, that the factions now there can get together and establish a stable gov- ernment?’ he was asked as he left the White House. “No, I do not,” he replied. “Not un- less some strong man is selected and the United States gets lack of him. “There is absolutely no truth in the reports that I am in disfavor in Wash- ingtan,”’ he added. “I’ve just spent an hour with the President—a most delight- ful. hour.

Under the direction of Conductor Max Zach, the St. Louis orchestra made the o~ big hit of the saengerfest program, and, although the night was raw, damp and cold, and the Coliseum imperfectly heat- ed, @ great audience was present. The principal number of the orchestral program was the majestic ‘“‘Tannhaus- er” overture, splendidly played and heard to peculiar advantage, owing to the excellent acoustics of the Coliseum. The program also included, among other compositions, Weber's ‘‘Invitation to the Dance,” and an especially memorable triumph was gcored by Hugo Olk, first violinist and concert master of the or- chestra, in the exquisite Meditation from Massenet’s “Thala.” The S$.

[AMERICAN ARTIST KNOCKS OUT PARIS ART CRITIC Resents Newspaper Writer’s Behavior at Soiree of Distinguished Guests and Tries to Provoke a Duel. Cable te the Post-Dispatch and New York World. Copyright, 2d ae by Press Publishing Co. New York World.) PARIS, stag 13.—An American fist con- necting with the jaw of an over-gallant Frenchman at a soiree given by Kees yon Dongen, the Paris artist, Monday night, and it is likely to lead to a duel, The principals are Edgar MacAdamasa, al American sculptor, and Woldemar Georres, the critic of Le Journale. This is not the first time MacAdams has demonstrated his fistic prowess. At the Julian Academy ball, four years ago, he championed the cause of a pretty model and felled two policemen before he was arrested. MacAdams objected to the behavior of the art critic, who was one of the (0 distinguished guests at the soiree, in- cluding Poiret, the dressmaker, Mme Marvel and the futurist, Arturo Cia- nelli, “The Don Juan airs of M. Georges be- came distasteful,’’ MacAdams explainec. “Others suggested it was up to me to Special do something. I bumped against Georges’ shoulders, and told him in English, which he understands, that Il didn’t like him. When he ignored me, I hit him.” Guests say MacAdams’ modest ac- count of the episode hardly does jus- tice to his valor. The art critic did not regain consciousness for several min- utes. While being helped out of the room, Georges tried to present his card to MacAdams, but his friends restrained him. Georges says: “His blow was painful. I remained as one sleeping for 15 minutes. We do not do such things in my country.” Georges applied to his host, Van Dor- gen, for the name and address of his assailant, that he might send his sec- onds. MacAdams said he was ready to fight, and he appointed a nephew of Oscar Wilde, Arthur Cravan, and the painter, George Shepherd of Virginia, to act for him. MacAdams’ talent at- tracted the attention of Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney several years ago and she offered him an education in Paris. o-_—_- —_ ——— 9000 PERSONS GATHER | AT SHRINE OF ST. RITA Afflicted Make Chicago Pilgrim- age That Annually Brings Miracle Stories. CHICAGO, May 13.—The lame, the halt and the blind were among the 9000 per- sons gathered about St. Rita’s Roman Catholic Church here today, attracted by stories of the miraculous powers ot St. Rita’s shrine, said by the Rev. Father Joseph F. Greene, who brought it from Rome, to contain a portion of the leg bone of St. Rita. The pilgrim- eze is an annual event, always marked by stories of wonderful recoveries from affliction of some of those who attend the novena. Last year the novena developed sev- eral stories of lame persons who threw away their crutches, of the blind who saw, and the dumb who spoke. Father Greene, when asked for confirmation of these stories at the time, was careful to state, ‘‘so the patients told me."§ He did not vouch personally for *‘cures.’’ NEW ODORLESS GARBAGE PLANT READY IN JUNE City Not to Suffer if Injunction Against Our Reduction Works Is Sustained. President Kinsey of the Board of Pub- lic Improvements said, Wednesday, that the new garbage reduction plant will be ready in June and if the injunction, granted Tuesday in Edwardsville, against operation of the old plant at Stallings, Lll., became effective the city would not be embarrassed. If neces- sary, the garbage will be moved, com- mencing Saturday, to the old dumping ground about 30 miles down the river, and held there until the completion, next month, of the new plant at Prairie Dupo creek, one mile below the city on the Illinois side.of the Mississippi River. President Kinsey and Associate Presi- dent Rolfe inspected the new plant, Tuesday afternoon, and expressed their belief that St. Louis garbage would be disposed of in the most up-to-date es- talishment of the kind in the country. The plant stands on a site containing 500 acres to which a sidetrack is run from the Iron Mountain Railroad. Gar- bage will be conveyed on barges through the creek to the plant where machinery will elevate it to the top of the build- ing. Once inside there will be no odor. The garbage will be cooked into solid fertilizer and grease. GRAND JURY INVESTIGATES WOMEN’S DEATH IN CELL Inquiry Seeks to Reveal How Slayer of Man Got Poison in New Orleans Jail. NEW ORLEANS, La., May 13.—The grand jury today is trying to learn how Miss Augusta Edwards obtained the an- tiseptic tablets with which she ended her life in jail here. Miss Edwards, probably the first white woman in New Orleans ever convicted of killing her betrayer, killed herself Monday night. In November, a year ago, she shot George Riehl, a jeweler, whose ste- nographer she had been. had wronged her under promise of mar- riage. Riehl had a wife and two chil- dren. Monday the Supreme Court affirmed she decision of the court which sen- tenced her to life imprisonment. MRS. H. A.

August Hunicke, tormer member of the Hunicke-Gauss-Shelton Hat Co. of St. Louis, died last Friday in Munich, Germany, according to ca- ble advices just received by St. Louis relatives. Mrs. Hunicke’s husband died in 1886 and several years later she went to Munich. Mrs. Hunicke was born in 8t. Louis. Her maiden name was Luthy. She is survived by three children, Otto Hunicke of New York, Mrs. Miller She sald hel SALARIES ARE VOTED TO CLAYTON CITY OFFICIALS Aldermen Fix Taxes at 25 Cents on $100 and Agree Mayor Should Get $300. A tax rate of 25 cents on the $100 as- sessed valuation was fixed in an ordi- nance introduced in the Board of Alder- men at Clayton Tuesday night. It was estimated this would produce a revenue of $6980.80, which, with $1000 additionai to be obtained from licenses, would bring the total revenue to about $8000. It was agreed that $1500 should appropriated for fire plugs and $1000 fo- the Fire Department. As this tax rate will produce an abundance of revenue. the Aldermen deduced it would be un- dignified for city officials to labor with- out salary. Accordingly, $300 a year was voted fo- the Mayor, $150 for the City Attorney, while thegAldermen allowed themselves $1 for each meeting they attend. There are two meetings each month. The City Engineer will get $900 a year: Clerk, $480; Marshal, $240; Health Department, $150; Treasurer, $50, while $500 was ap- propriated for incidentals. The city will receive from the countrr road fund 65 per cent of the amount paid to this fund by Clayton property own- ers. This will amount to $5200, whic will be expended on the roads and streets. he A Refreshing Luncheon. 30 different Sandwiches, Salads, Deli- Giotis Pastry and Soda Fountain drinks quickly served in our 2d fl.

Ralph Pulitzer, who was the guest of honor, made a brief speech in which he thanked those present for the loyalty they had shown, and said that he hoped they would find in the future the World all of as they have been to it. In their talk of the past most of the speakers paid tribute to the life and work of Joseph Pulitzer. Many of those present had first come to the World as boys.

LETES IN TRAINING for the honor pic Games of 1916. Ten years ago it is doubtful if 3000 athletes other than wrestlers or gym- nasts could have been found in all the Empire, The wonderfully increased in- terest in track and field sports is due to the influence of the Olympic Games. And back of the success of these looms large the figure of Uncle Sam, who has put the Olympics on the map and/ kept them there. Quantity, Not Quality, Now. HE 3,000,000 athletes referred to are probably composed largely of turn- ers. Only a few will be able to benefit by special coaching of hired American experts. They cannot possibly constitute a team to compare in efficiency with the carefully selected men who will repre- sent this country. But with 3,000,000 in raw material to draw on, the Teutonic athletes promise to become a factor within the next decade that will make the United States hump itself. Breaking a Precedent. O far as can be observed the chief tory in the Na@tienal ‘League champion- ship race appear to be Ed Konetchy and precedent. Big Ed is supposed’ to make a cham- pionship club out of the Pirates, while popular superstition has it that no team can win four successive pennants, BE- CAUSE IT HASN'T BEEN DONE IN 30 YEARS! Ed Konetchy is a rousing good first baseman when all goes well with him, and a much less effective one, at times. At his best there is nothing so superlative about him that he can add enough to a weakened Pittsburg club to make it a championship fac- tor over the team that won the flag last season. + 7 To even up things the Sunday, - gecond division, ate revenue ¢ Mr. s T. intérests. “Wrecked’’ Phillies Die Hard.

MeGraw will have the “hig four” of last year; and if the rest of the club stands up for him, his crew ought to come right back and smash the Pirates,. despite “precedent.” . o *. A LEAD of four or five games, such as is owned by the Pirates, is imma- terial in a 154-game scramble, when but 20 games have been played. It only serves to make the opposition hustle harder throughout and be more danger- ous than ever at the end. It does away with lack of confidence that might have rulnmed MecGraw’s men; had they started a-flying. As for that precedent stuff, why, anything’s a precedent until it’s beaten. Besides, from 1885 to 1888 inclusive, this despised burg of St. Louis won four in a row, and one world’s championship to boot. So that the ‘30-year’ precedent just barely exists and that’s all. Its a grand little time for John Mc- Graw to smash the hoodoo about four- time winners. . . What Ails the Braves?

Early this year Stallings was figured a contender for a first-division berth; but now his club appears to have collapsed. We'll have to blame some of it, at least, on the Feds, who wrung from him a good pitcher in Jack Quinn, one of the tightest catchers in the league, Rariden, an inflelder, Smith, and another pitcher, Dickson. In getting Evers for Sweeney, Stallings pulled a big stunt, one that fig- ured to help his club considerably. Stallings is not the boy to hold down a last place berth.

C.’s Contract Ends June 2. By Clarence F. Lloyd. The National Athletic Club has been unable to obtain a date for a boxing bout at the Coliseum this month and as a result the club has practically passed out of existence. Unless the club obtains new quarters, it will have no home, as its contract with the Coliseum Building company expires June 1 and according to re- port, a renewal of the lease will be denied. - Efforts were made to obtain a date after May 15, when the club expected to schedule its final boxing entertain- ment of the season. Application was made to Frank N.. Robinson, ma-ager of the Coliseum building, who says that May 14 and 15 (Thursday and Friday), are the only dates obtain- able. As the club could not arrange a performance on such short notice it means that no boxing will be offered at the Coliseum later. The building is booked solid for the remainder of the month, according to Robinson. “Il wrote a letter to Henry Blod- ga Mondayy’.said Robinson to the ost-Dispatch, “saying that the N. A®C. could have the building May 14 or %6 but that the club would have to notify us immediately if either date was desired. As no reply was re- ceived, workmen have already begun to install fixtures in the building for a gas convention at the Coliseum next week. “We offered the building to the N. A. C. provided a flat rate of $350 rent- al was paid, the payment to be made in advance of the show. We wrote to Mr. Blodgett, as the building company has been doing no business with Frank Bishop.” No Renewal Asked For. When asked if the N. A, C. had made application for a renewal of the League, Robinson replied that it had not. He ventured the opinion that no boxing would be held at the Coliseum if the city took over the structure. While Frank Bishop, secretary of the N. A. C., has at different times bobbed up with the report that another boxing ‘entertainment would be offered to N. A. C. members,some time this month, Ollie Kirk, boxér, and co-promoter with Bishop in the N. A. C, bouts, has been keeping a daily vigil at the Coliseum —— _ = NATIONAL LEAGUE. Standing of the Clubs.

Kirk says he has seen Bishop but once since the night the police prevent- ed the Harry Trendall-Leo Kelly bout at the Coliseum, April 23. According to Kirk he has been ‘“‘stung’’ in a finan- cial way in the last two performances at the Coliseum. It is said it has cost Kirk between $500 and $1000 for his brief dabble in the promoting business. “Bishop had.planned te. hold.another show,” said Kirk, ‘‘but he does not seem to be having much success in getting the building or the ‘boxers: We lost $500 on the Trendall-Britton bout while the police crimped the Trendall-Kelly show. “Of the receipts of the Trendall- Kelly show, $350 was paid for the building along with other expenses. [ don’t know if Bishop will pay back some of the money that members paid to see the proposed Trendall- Kelly bout. By referring to the list of applications, he could learn most of the members who bought tickets. I have been: at the Coliseum every day, but he hasn’t crossed my path and I don’t know what his plans are.” After the Trendall-Kelly fiascq Bishop said he would hold another show and credit each member who had bought a ticket with an allow- ance of 50 per cent on his ticket for the next bouts. If he couldn’t obtain a date, he said he would refund half of the money paid, figuring that the members had been provided with some entertainment. Bishop has refunded the forfeit money to Joe Genail, who was dis- qualified in his bout with Jimmy Foley at the last Coliseum show. Genail, however, says he was not paid the promised $75 for his services. SIX PIKER TRA MEN TO COMPETE IN VALLEY EVENTS Coach Edmunds Expects to Score in Conference Athletic Meeting. Washington University ts to have a track team in the Missouri Valley track and field championship, to be held at Francis Field May 29 and 30 after all. A report was spread that the “Pike- way track team was a myth” and that the school would no? be repre- sented in the big event. Dr. Edmunds is still on the job un- tis his year is over. even though he has resigned. Coach Edmunds, al- though men will land in the win column in the meet, does think that he has men who can score, which is pretty goo4, considering the talent entered. Edmunds says that he will start six men in the meet. one of the best men on his squad. He thinks that Phillips has a chance to score in both the high jump and the shot-put. He is good for about 56 feet 8 inchessin the high jump, and over 40 feet in the shot-put. He is also said to be sors in the discus & powerful lad, as yet inexperienced but quick to get the knack of jumping or pitching throw. He is a b the weights. , Nelson Good at Weights. Paul Nelson has entered in the shotput and discus throw. He is good for 43 feet in«the shotput, which ought to place’and possibly win the event for him. Luke Stites is entered in the high jump. He can teap 5 feet 7 inches. Modisette is entered in both the high jump and the broad jump. The big basket ball star is good for over 20 feet in the broad jump. De Vorkin is entered in both the dash events. He is good for 10 2-5 seconds in the cen- tury run. Harold Keysor is entered in the middle distance events. He is best at the 440-yard race. An effort’ is being made to induce William Bau- man to compete for the myrtle and maroon. He is said to be a good per- former at the half mile and mile distances. Edmunds says that he has been so busy coaching the baseball team that he has had little time for the track team. After the present trip of the baseball team the old Michigan star will endeavor to whip the track team into scoring shape.

SPECIAL MEETINGS CALLED House to Meet Today and To- morrow; Signing of Tax Rate _ Bill Is Postponed. Instead of ending the tangle over the appropriation bill, the House of Dele- gates Tuesday night started a second budget measure on its course, and post- poned signing of the $2.35 tax rate bill until Friday. City employes will not get their April pay until June as a result of this move. The Council sent the.old budget back to the House in the afternoon with an opinion from City Counselor Baird to the effect that it was. the duty under parliamentary rubes, for the House, making the first amendment to a bill, to ask for a conference in case.of a dis- agreement. Notwithstanding this opin-’ unanimously to send the old bill-back to the Council for the third time.. Chairman McCarthy. of the Ways and Means Committee said the Council had made the first amendment of the bill by adding the Coliseum and Payne tract items after the joint committees of both branches had agreed upon a bill, and were therefore bound even under Baird’s opinion to seek a conference or file the bill after a disagreement. Second Budget Bill Introduced. McCarthy introduced a second budget measure Tuesday, and the House will meet Wednesday morning and Friday afternoon to give it three readings and pass it in time for the next meeting of the Council Friday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock. The McCarthy budget includes $150,- 000 for the remoyal of ashes and rub- bish instead of the $150,000 Coliseum item favored by the Council. It also includes the $75,000 Payne tract item favored by the Counci, and omits the $16,000 item‘*for elevating houses at Tow- er Grove grade crossing which was rec- ommended by Comptroller Player and approved by the Council. Councilman John F. Hines, Democrat, who is in the house moving business, asked House Democrats to omit the $16,000 item in order that his profession might make contracts with the house owners to do the work privately. The tax rate bill already passed by both bodies will die May 2%, the last date on which the new rate may be fixed under a charter provision, unless Speaker Gazzolo signs the measure. In response to a vote of the House, Gaz- zOlo twice has refused to sign, and it is Teported that Law Department officia)s Supreme Court’s Decision. The Missouri Supreme Court once held the signing of bills in St. Louis to he merely a ministerial duty on the part of a presiding officer, which he could be compelled to perform by mandamus pro- ceedings in the courts. This decision was overruled by the Supreme Court and it was held to be a legislative func- tion instead of a ministerial act, which the presiding officer could determine at his will without interference from the courts. Mayor Kiel said he has not asked the Law Department for an opinion on the point, and will not consider it unless necessity arises. The new rate may be established before the fourth Monday in May, and fatling that, the rate for the previous year becomes effective. The old rate was $2.22, which is 8 cents less than the rate recommended by Comptroller Player and 18 cents less ion, the House of Delegates voted. fare agreed that Gazzolo has the legal, right to withhold his signature as a leg- OTC Ob nese | i , p > = ‘ —— ° 0 | 9 f 0 H O 9 O | ° O | ° 0 ° O | | ono o ne 001010 St. Louis Headquarters for Banc ee if ~ f é Pageant & Masque in which the history of St. Louis f ‘will be presented, are on sale at the prices named by the commit- a |e ms ph [/ ] fz fa {7 4 aim /, / ‘ \ —the great spectacular occasion 2 I | LN Vi Y, A 3 ta y Y ¢ A ~ ~ . uw Tash ES eR ARE ge Es. aoa . om. tee r at — * ‘al 3 4 -% eP Ee C6 OR OS " = : ” é . a bi itt uk . ” ¥ - os tr Sen : Lp ie : r __ . % Jed " ‘ *, A a> % ¥ : L 3 i 4 é “= : 4 ‘ s s . 7 Seta : nf =" 3 2 3 a : —F , 3 ca ” = ~ J * we vA : FE % 3 4 3 Js, Pa i pt . .

GIRL, 11, AWAKENS INSPECTOR REPORTS 10 PERSONS WHEN AROUSED BY FIRE Ethelda Hamilton age Through Smoke Filled:Halls on | 3 Floors of Rooming House. - When Ethelda Hamilton, 11 years old, was awakened by smoke at 3 a m. Wednesday at the home of her grand- mother, Mrs. Cora Hamilton, 1635 South Grand avenue, she ran through the house, roomers. Sleeping on the third floor with her were Adele Crawford and Ida. Stevens. She awakened them first. The smoke each room on the first and second floors, but she ran through the halls scream- ing, “Fire!” On the first floor were Mr. and Mrs John Edwards and their 20-months-old baby. Mrs. Edwards telephoned a fire alarm and then ran out to the fire alarm ' box and sent in an alarm from there. In her excitement she bad left her baby in the house and rushed back frantically to see if it was safe. Miss Cora Hamilton, a granddaughter of Mrs. Hamilton, who had been sleep- ivg on the second floor, had carried the baby to safety. Others on the second floor were Forest King, John Thomp- son, Waldo Dora and Mrs. Hamilton. King is a locomotive fireman. He was partially awakened by smoke some time before Ethelda Hamilton gave the alarm, but went to sleep again. Ethelda Hamilton had dreamed earlier in the night that the house was on fire. She had been nervous about fire since Sunday night, when a towel caught fire from a gas jet. The fire started in the bathroom and is attributed to a defective flue. It was extinguished by Edwards with water and a hand extinguisher before the f+a- men arrived. The damage was $200. _— SAFETY FIRST. St. Louis Union Trusz: Co., 4th & Locust.

He said great progress had been made in enforcing the law as to it has lately been difficult for the smoke inspectors to find evidence to warrant them in bringing a prosecution against a factory.’ Hoffman stated, in his report, that some complaints as to inactivity on the part of his department had been made, but he declared the record shows this charge not to be well founded. During the last fiscal year, Hoffman stated, his inspectors made 34,928 ob- servations of railroad smoke, and 871 observations of stacks. The number of letters written to individuals and firms, warning them of prosecution for violat- ing’ the smoke ordinance, was 4178, and the number of cases taken to police court Was 249. In 184 cases police court summons were issued and in 90 of these cases fines were imposed. There were § acquittals and in the remaining % basis of obedience to the ordinance. Hoffman stated that, while the great- est progress had been in regard to fac- tories, satisfactory progress was also being made as to railroad smoke. Sixty- one per cent of all locomotives entering the city are fitted with consumers, he said, and this includes nearly all the locomotives of the Terminal Association.

It filustrates the force and aptness of “President Wilson’s description of the measure as “a gun behind the door.” The action of the House was due wholly to the power of public opinion, expressed through the initiative petitions. The House combine which had resisted every popular influence brought to bear upon it to provide for the building of the city’s approach recognized in the successful initiative campaign the proof not only that the people wanted the Reber .approach bonds sub- mitted, but that they had the power to force their submission. The combine surrendered. The exposure of the Troll-Scherrer A. & M. spec- ‘ulation demonstrated the sound judgment of the people. : The fight for bridge completion has been long and arduous. Leaving out of account all pre- vious efforts to pass bond proposals, the present campaign to submit bonds has continued nearly five months. Since the Post-Dispatch opened the bridge completion campaign in January the struggle has passed through many phases. Pub- lic opinion was first informed, then organized ‘land finally crystallized. The committee of 100 | representing 87 civic organizations did effective work in erganizing the people, arousing public sentiment and concentrating it on the House combine. When it became evident that the in- itiative was necessary the committee’s extraordi- nary campaign for signatures proved the capacity and the willingness of St. Lonisans to get to- gether and work together for the public welfare. The victorious culmination of that successful | work ts. the action of the House. All obstructions to the completion of the bridge are swept away. The bonds will be submitted to the people in accordance with the demand of more than 40,000 voters. The result rests with the people. If they want the bridge completed they can accomplish it by the most economical and efficient plan. The vote will record their will. | In the bridge bond and charter elections citi- zens of St. Louis have two golden opportunities to clear the way for progress. They can de termffie the future of the city—whether it shall go forward on the path of achievement or stop in the slough of inaction. A PROSPERITY THEME. In the opening of Mississippi River navigation on a business basis and the construction of standard shore terminals, Gov. Major had a prosperity thenie whith taxed even his command of gidwing Jangtiage. St. Louis business men should realize the possibilities of cheap river traffic. The breaking down of the river barriers to Eastern traffic is of prime importance to St. Louis, but it is no more important than the re- vival of river transportation on a modern, efficient basis. There is unlimited expansion of trade in this condition. = = * '-~ Fr IF MEDIATION PAILS. Some American newspapers are already assert- ing that mediation of the Mexican problem is a failure. And, in some cases, the wish.seems to be father to the thought. Jingoes and fire-eaters may rest assured that if mediation fails and “On to Mexico” becomes the order of the day, what has gone before in the way of forcible intervention will be no criterion of what is to come. Those who think that, be- cause Gen. Mass left Vera Cruz to its fate, so that we took it with a score or so of casualties, the Mexicans are cowards and will-not fight, are destined to be undeceived. The march to Mexico City will be no mere summer’s day jaunt. And, before the war thus begun can be ended, horrors may crowd on horrors until even the fingoes are satiated. There will be neither time nor opportunity for ceremonial display and funer- al.orations over the bodies of heroes returned to their native sofl. It may well be that hundreds jcan never be brought back. The Mexicans, too, have machine guns and shrapnel. If we must fight, we must. But not until medi- ation has had its utmost test. Only barbarians will attempt to discourage the mediators.

A wider use of St. Louis school buildings is authorized by the Board of Education just in time to make them available. for public as- semblies during the new charter campaign. The practical value of thé idea in serving the con- venience of the community fs certain to have larger appreciation as discussion over the Free holders’ handiwork proceeds. The unanimous action of the board in placing the schoolhouses at the disposal of the: public brings success to a movement whose benefits have been repeatedly brought to attention by the Post-Dispatch. A real need is met by the plan. The only conditions prescribed are that ‘organizations utilizing school property for their meeting places must not oppose law and order and must not permit utterances likely, to provoke breach of the peace. The facilities' of the school- to public service. . terchange of ideas will be promoted by this ex- cellent policy of the board. To make it élear that the individual and the educational system are not to be divorced as soon as the school age is passed, that costly plants established by the taxpayers are not reserved exclusively for the school purposes of youth, will have the advan- tage of bringing the community as a whole in closer touch with the schools and the school ate tccate RO = = = S = NO SCUTTLE POLICY AT WASHINGTON. Public scrutiny of acts at Washington having lessened as scrutiny of events in Mexico has in- creased in intensity, sidestepping Congressmen urged an interruption in the party’s program of legislation apportioned to the present session. It was proposed that the Clayton anti-trust bill; the Covington Interstate Trade Commission bill and the Reyburn Railroad Securities bill, brought forward in fulfillment of specific platform pledges, should be consigned to the uncertainties of the future and an adjournment voted immediately after the passage of the supply measures. Floor Leader Underwood was contending for party fidelity and honesty in opposing the: plan. Last night’s caucus properly put the stamp of con- demnation on this congressional policy of evasion and scuttle. To throw over to the next session work definitely assigned to this would mean a congestion of measures and hasty, perhaps care- less, work during the remaining life of the present administration. Why Congressmen would sacrifice the general interest to their own personal interest is easily understood, But they will find that their chances of re-election will be much more improved by re- maining to carry forward the work in hand than by scurrying home to open their campaigns. De- linquency at this date should not mar the fine record already made. The Mexican issue, made an excuse for negligence, furnishes all the more reason for diligence at the Capitol. If a foreign war results its regretted coming should find our house in order and our domestic program well advanced toward completion. a a i a se The man who carried the message to Garcia must have had a safe, comfortable trip compared with Col. Fabrio de la Garza, who carried the mes- sage from Villa to Zapata. = =" _ re Se SENDING BACK TO BELLE PLAIN. Just 50 years ago anxious Washington was be- ing enheartened by reading a famous letter for- warded by General Grant from the wilds of Spott- sylvania County, Va., which letter ended as fol- lowss | I-am now sending back to Belle Plain all | my wagons for a fresh supply of provisions | and ammunition and propose to fight it out on this line if it takes all summer. The fight for a greater St. Louis is unquestion- ably being made along the right line. We must have freer, amplified communication with the territory on the east side of the river. We must put betterment on physical St. Louis. We must remove obstructions that now hamper movement. We must have an improved plan of municipal government. New stores of energy for prosecut- ing the effort for these things will be supplied by sending back to Belle Plain—by returning to the starting point and recalling the conditions that gave rise to our pending struggles. In spite of criticism, inertia, deadlocks, delays, impediments artificially placed, “Cap” Trolls, hindrances of every sort, we must fight it out on the present line if it takes all summer, if it takes more than one summer. A MOVEBS’ TRUST. It’s a moving tale,’ this of the St. Louls movers forming a trust of bosses and men to charge the moving public $2 an hour for moving, instead of so much a load. The idea is money making. All good movers should move a vote of thanks to the mover whose brain created it. But what will poor movers do, if the banded movers succeed in car- ‘I rying it out? Moving is a service. Charged for by the load, the public could in some measure protect itself by insisting that the load be a full load.

Walker. AND MRS. MOUSE lived iny a field and their children were taught to look out for all the dangers that surround the life of a field mouse. But now that they were growing old- er, Mr. Mouse told her husband she thought they should go into a house for the summer. “We ought to give.the children all the advantages that we can, and living ina house would teach them many things,’ she said. “They have never seen a trap, and they would not know a cat if they met one.” And so it was decided that the family should move the first time there was an opportunity. . The little mice were very much ex- cited and could hardly wait for the time to come. A heavy rain delayed them, but one night the’ moon came out and cleared away the clouds, and Mr Mouse said: ‘‘My dear, this is the time to change our abode.” Mr. and Mrs Mouse ran along through the fleld with the little ones beside them. It was quite a distance to the nearest house and they had to take great care not to “I shall be very glad to assist you,” said puss. “What can I do?” “If you would roll a stone or two into the water,” said Mr. Mouse, “it would stir it, and the motion would send our boat to the other side.” “I can get to the other side before they can get away,” thought puss, and I can catch one, and perhaps two.” Se she answered: “Yes, indeed, I am al- Ways glad to lend a helping hand.” Mrs. Mouse gathered her little ones around her, trembling as she did so, but she knew that her husband was a wise fellow, and she trusted him. Puss rolled one stone into the wate~ and the boat moved along. Then she rolled the second, and this time the boat glided to the edge of the water. Puss flew around the pool, but Mr. and Mrs. Mouse ran, and so did the litt! mice, and when puss reached the other side she saw their tails disappearing under the steps of the house, and as there was not a hole large enough for her to enter, she knew that she had los: them.

P Gebabed YORK lawyer tells of an English widow who, by reason of certain legal complications, found it necessary to retain a distinguished at- terney..to represent her in the adjust- ment of her late husband's estate. “You will,” said the attorney, dur- ing the course of their consultation, “you will get your third ‘out of the es- tate.”” “Oh,” exclaimed the widow aghast. “How Can you. say such a thing, with ‘ered his voice: mind about suffrage,” said my dinner partner, a rather tall, noncommittal person, in a gown, “Well, no,’’ I admitted frankly, ~-i can't say I have. Perhaps it doesn't make so much difference either way," { added warily. But at this moment someone broke in and I was saved. After dinner I was presented to an ethereal girl, with spangles, who plunged into eugenics at once. “‘Wasn’t it dreadful about Wisconsi™ going back on its: own law!” she gasped “Of course, you must believe in certifi- cates. Think of one’s getting married without one. How do you stand?” “Can't say I've made up my mind yet,’’ I replied, noting that the woman back of us was eyeing me suspiciously “I agree with both sides,’’ I continued, with a weak smile. She was borne away. My next was a woman whose personality you could feel jutting out. of her in crags. “Yes,” I said, “of course, the judi- ciary ought to be reformed. But the danger lies in being too revolutionary Not that I am reactionary,” I protest- ed; “only that~—well, I haven't quite made up my mind yet. There are two sides. It’s really a very important ques- tion.”’ I managed to get away from her. “What is your opinion about crea- tive evolution?’ said an old, slim gir', with a tortoise-shell face extension, as she grabbed: me in passing. “I bave none,”’ I stammered. “! mean, of course, that both sides have merit; that is, the arguments either way are highly impressive.” Making my escape, I met the husband of my hostess, quietly smoking in an alcove of the piazza. “Why home so soon?’ he asked. “To be candid, old man, I am getting away from all these high-brow women your wife is so fond of. I’m afraid ‘f I venture an opinion I may guess wrong and get mobbed.” “Not quite so bad as that,” he said “At the very worst it amounts to this: If you disagree with one she insiste upon trying to convert you. If you agre« with her then she enlists your services to help the cause.”’ “Isn't that enough?” I groaned “What's the use of knowing such peo- ple, anyway?” “There's no choice among women now - adays.
