Aboard the New York City were dispatches for the, British Consul here, placed there by officers of the Suffolk an hour: before. The Suffolk's officers told officers of the New York City they had captured a German oil tank steamer two days ago also that the Suffolk had sighted a Ger- man cruiser with a consort recently and had given chase to the ‘vessels, which had ‘ eluded her. The tank steamer captured by the Suf- folk was taken, ‘officers of the New York City said, either to Halifax or Bermuda, they did not learn which, Yesterday it was reported a Britis: cruiser was taking a German vessel as a war prize to Bermuda. The name of this vessel wat given as the Kronprinz Wilhelm, one of the big trausatlantie steamers of the North German Lloyd ine. The Suffolk was the first warship tv approach so near to New York. Half @ dozen or more British, French and Ger- man men-of-war recently have been re- ported off the American coast. A British cruiser was spoken 180 miles off y Hook yesterday evening by the talian steamer America, which reached here today from Genoa and Palermo. Lusitenta Near Liverpool. \ Cunard Line officers were cheered to- day by cable advices from London an- nouncing that ‘the crack liner Lusitania was within 300 miles of her desination— Liverpool—between 8 and 10 o'clock this morning. She should cover that during the day, officials thought, and reach Liverpool harbor tonight. Only one vessel sailed from ‘New York teday, the Italian liner Ancona, bound for Naples. She had aboard a few Ger- man reservists, the first to leave New York since England declared war on Germany. Her steerage was filled with Ttalian laborers aud their families re- turning home.

Passgge money was refunded to Germans, and they were not allowed to sail. Foreign-born passengers were obliged to produce their citizenship papers in order that the line might ef- fectually bar all Germans from the ship. Some of the reservists prevented from going aboard fought the police in a vain attempt to climb the gang plank.

Representative Farr’s resolution would direct Secretary Redfield to investigate the advance, particularly in flour. Representative Kellys resolution di- rects an inquiry as to whether the manipulation of values by speculators in the Chicago Board of Trade and elsewhere is resulting in unjust and ur warranted advances in the prices of fcodstuffs, in spite of record-breaking crops in this country, and the fact that there has been little or no exportation of food supplies.” „German Ship That “Chased” Liner Was U. S. Destroyer NEWPORT, R. I., Aug. 11.—It was not a ship of Germany's navy which was re- ported to have given chase to the Cu- nard liner Lusitania last week as the steamer was bound to England from New York, as reports stated. The destroyer Walke of the United States Atlantic torpedo flotilla, with oth- er destroyers, were manuevering off Montauk Point in night . maneuvers where the Lusitania passed close aboard of the fast-moving destroyer, which was seen from the decks of the Lusitania. Soon afterward the big ship was making all possible speed, believing it was a German warship chasing her. Those on board the destroyer state the Steamer was making great speed, es- pecially after the destroyer was mis- taken for the warship of Germany.

Most of them are officers in the German army and all of them are trusting to luck to find thelr way home from Naples.

N London Correspondent Quotes Wounded Officers to Show That Invaders Were Sent Up to Glacis of Forts to Escape Heavy Guns, Com- manders Apparently Not Realizing That Ma- chine Guns There Would Sweep Them Away. * LONDON, Aug. 11 —Dispatches and advices received from Belgium are unanimous in describing the repulse of the Germans in their attack upon Liege on Friday as a carnage. }-_ The correspondent of the Times tells what he has learned through personal interviews with German prisoners and wounded men and officers of both sides who were taken to Brussels. He says that when the German army first advanced upon Liege the officers believed the sole task before them was that of pouring in a continuous fire that would wipe out all Belgian oppo- sition. But with the men in the ranks the situation was otherwise, “Marched Shoulder to Shoulder Straight to Death.” ‘Incredible as it may seem, writes the Times correspondent, these unhappy Germans are marched straight to death almost shoulder to shoulder, The Napoleonic tactics of the sudden application of 6verwhelming masses of men fo achieve a desired victory or reach a certain objective point seems to have inspired the German Generals. Apparently they hoped to satisfy the greed of the guns in the fort by a holocaust of victims. The result of this policy, he says, was a terrific slaughter among the closely knit ranks of the Germans. When the mighty fusillades of the Belgians began, ‘avenues were opened up in the German ranks,’’ writes the correspondent. Masses of the dead began to accumulate in the green stretches that lay before the forts. Quoting a wounded Belgian soldier, the corresponde.; says: It was death in haystacks.’’ But still the Germans pressed forward. Detachment after detachment was hurled against the fortifications, only to recoil broken and scattered from the fearful fusillades. Yet still they came, more and still more of them, cattle ruthlessly driven to the slaughter as though on a time-table schedule. Seemingly no - provision had been made for any change of plans in the event of a check to the German advance. Certainly, the Belgians suffered heavily, says this correspondent, but such injury as the Germans inflicted upon the enemy was only at a trighttul sacrifice to their own numbers. At one of the forts the German troops succeaded in gaining 5 footing en the glecis right under the muzzles of the great guns, and ame they believed tbemselves momentarily safe from the massacre. It @etually seems, writes the correspondent, recounting’ hin ‘couterens tion with a Belgian officer who described this scene to him, that both the offices 34 mon had no realization of the fact that once they had passed within ths daigerou von of the heavy siege guns, ee xt bad ae them- selves open 7 the five tha machine guns. „„In a few momente the lac was swept clean of living * and its green turf was readers tb de slaughter of piles upon piles of the dend.“ Much of Rifle Firiaz at 30-Yard Range.

Much of, the rifle fring took place at about fifty yards raage, but even this was not lose enough and presently the Belgians, with 4xed bayonets, threw themselves upon th : disorganized Germans, who had been rushed right up against them. A Belgian lancer who was wounded said to the Times correspondent: It was tragic to see how these poor Germans were brought up to the guns of the forts in massed formation. They stood not five paces apart and barely fifteen paces between the ranks, thus presenting a solid front, which even a woman who never handled a gun could.not have missed. „We simply could not fail to hit them, and before our infantry ebarged with bayonets the dead lay in the field in great heaps. Hundreds Struck With Bayonets a They Ran. When our men charged, many of the Germans turned and hundreds of them were struck with lances and bayonets in the back as they ran. Of my own charge, I only know that my lance was broken as I stuck it inte some German.“ According to the correspondent, a great body of Germans was wiped out by a field mine, which Gen. Leman, commanding the Belgian forces, waited to explode until the German troops were actually marching over it. To lead them onto the mined field, Gen. Leman sent out a small detachment of Bek gian infantry, with instructions to retire before the Germans until = lattes had been led right into the trap. The invaders came on quite unsuspectingly and the whole force 90 me started to pursue what they conceived to be a fleeing body of Belgians, ‘@ag destroyed. leat them.

LONDON, Aug. 11.—The Finance Com- mittee of the American Citizen’s Com- mittee has decided to spend most of the relief money appropriated by the United States Government in helping the Amer- icans who are stranded on the Continent of Europe. Agents of the Great Eastern and Southeastern railways are being sent to France and Belgium to search for destitute Americans. Transportation thus provided will be paid for out of the London relief fund. Immediate relief of are in Germany is impossible at the present time. Americans are coming into London from Boulogne at the rate of 200 a day, but without their luggage. There is no one to handle it in France. Donald Harper says it is much safer at the ho- tels than at the stations, as there are no cabs or busses of any description running in Paris after dark. The com- mittee objects to any young Americans going out unattended at night. Passage Home Aided. Special arrangements have been made American consuls at Havre and South- Ampton, the British authorities co-oper- ming, to facilitate the passage of Amer- loans stranded there. The European agents of the Pennsyl- vania Railroad informed Consul-General Skinner that $25,000 has been placed to his credit to cash American letters of credit and travellers’ checks for the stranded and to assist them in getting to America, free transportation from home ports being promised by the Penn- syivania system to persons living along its lines. Be The Embassy staff was again busily employed throughout today and far into the night dealing with passport questions and answerigs inquiries. For this pur- pose the embassy is being assisted by Chandler Anderson, formerly Counsellor of the State Department, who is acting as legal adviser for the Department in connection with the relief money now being sent across the Atlantic. Inquiries Answered, Chandler Hale, formerly of the diplo- matic service; Augustus Peabody Gard- ner, a member of Congress from Massa- chusetts and a son-in-law of Senator Lodge, and William Corcoran Eustis, formerly the third secretary here, are giving valuable help in answering in- quiries. : Judge William H.

ARTIAL law is being more rigorously enforced in this city daily. The authorities are particularly anxious to pre- vent the escape of private news and frequently take the precaution of tapping telephone wires, calls on which can now be made only in French. It is explained that this insistence upon the use of a language famil- jar to the police has been made necessary by the fact that suspect- ed Germans were in the habit of telephoning in English. The restriction, however, is de- cidedly irksome to many English and Americans whose knowledge of French is limited. The American Ambassador, Myron T. Herrick, was cut off today when attempting to converse with friends. The diplo- mat was more amused than an- noyed. M Germans Get No Answer to Protest Against Censorship NEW YORK, Aug. 11.— Heinrich Charles, secretary of the German-Amer- ican Chamber of Commerce, said today that no answer had been received to the protest made against this Govern- ment’s placing censors in the wireless stations along the coast of the Uni States known to have been in commyni- cation with German warshtins. The protest charged that Karge was being discriminated against, in what the cables to England were open and un- censored on this side of the Atlantic. From London the protest asserted, in- formation and instructions could be sent by cable then relayed by wireless to Hritish or French warships. The cen- scring of messages sent over the Ger- man-owned radio stations, Charles as- serted, was unfair to the German people. He and his organization also maintait that the action taken by the United States was not in accordance with the neutrality laws.

England Warns of Double Set of North Sea Mines WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.—Great Bri- In, pointing the danger to neutral shipping by the placing of mines in the North Sea by Germany has indicated a purpose to plant mines in the same waters. Colville Barclay, Charge of the British Embassy, today presented to Secretary Bryan the following memor- andum: The Germans are planting contact mines indiscriminately about the North Sea in the open sea without regard for consequences to merchantmen. Two days ago four large merchant ships were observed to pass, within a mile of the mine field which sank the H. M. 8. Amphion. The waters of the North Sea must, therefore, be regarded as perilous in the large degreee to mer- chant shipping of all nations. „In view of the methods adopted by Germany, the Admiralty must hold themselves fully at liberty to adopt sim- ilar measures in self-defense, which must inevitably increase the dangers to navigation in the North Sea. But before so, they think it right to issue this warning, in order that merchant ships under neutral flags trading with North Sea ports should turn back be- fore entering the area of such excep- tional danger.“ U. S. Investigates German Reservists’ Drill in Chicago CHICAGO, Aug. 11.—Federal author- ities today began an investigation of reports that German reservists are drill- ing in the suburb of Elmhurst.

Kurt von Reiswitz, German Consul at Chica- go, warned the Germans against drill- ing yesterday, but according to informa- tion received at the office of the United States District Attorney today the warn- ing has been disregarded.

By the Military Expert of the Post- Dispatch and London Daily News. Copyright, 1914, by Press Pub. Co. (New York World.) LONDON, Aug. 11.—Owing to the check to the German forces at Liege, the strategical advantage for the mo- ment is on the side of the allies. If the Germans had succeeded in estab- lishing themselves on the Meuse and had defeated the Belgian army decisively in the field before the arrival of the French troops, they might have deployed upon the line of Brussels, Namur and Dinant. Then, making their way through the gap of Chimay into France, they could have fallen upon the French troops be fore the mobilization and concentration of the French had been completed. Then they could have given a hand to the aid of the German army, which js apparently concentrating on the Moselle at Luxemburg, Thionville and Metz. This army plans to invade France through the gap between Verdun ani Longwy. Gap Must Have Been Closed. If all this was the original plan of the German General Staff, as seems most probable, it is no longer possible to carry it out until after a pitched bat- tle for the mastery of the Meuse and Sambre valley has been fought. The gap of Chimany must have been closed some days ago by the French army and by this time the French must have forestalled the Germans at Namur. A great chance is now open to the French commander if he can so manue- ver as to join hands with the Belgian army in the field, which is now concen- trated at Louvaine. He then can force the Germans to fight with their faces toward the North Sea and their backs toward the Ardennes. If the Germans are beaten in such a battle they must bow to utter defeat, for they will be driven from their lines of communication with the Rhine into rugged country between the Meuse and the Duchy of Luxemburg. Turning to Alsace, where the fog is beginning to lift, a report comes through Rome that the French force, presumably a part of the army which occupied Muelhausen on Saturday, has captured Colmar, which lies some miles down the River III from Muel- hausen.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 11-—There are many reports about Americans being de- tained in foreign countries, but the one serious complication over the presence of Americans in Europe at this time is at Nuremberg, Germany, where Mr. and Mrs. Archer M. Huntington of New York are detained as spies. They will be released, Mr. Bryan as- serts, as soon as the Germans get the facts. He made no demand for their release, but he has asked Ambassados Gerard at Berlin to take the matter ur with Germany, and as communicatior between this country and Berlin is un- satisfactory, has requested Ambassador Herrick at Paris to take the Hunting tons’ case by way of Rome. Mr. Bryan was informed by Mr. Her- rick that the Huntingtons are not in prison but are detained at the Grand Hotel in Nuremberg. The fact that Mr. Huntington was well supplied with maps and other informa- tion about Germany caused his arrest. His friends at the National Geographic Society do not believe he has done any- thing that warrants detention longer than until the truth is known. They have so informed the State Department. No News From Germany. No news is being received from Ger- many. Censorship over the cables from Germany is so strict, Chancellor Edler of the German embassy said, that the embassy officials here and at Newport have been entirely cut off from the Berlin Foreign Ministry. Charge von Haimhausen, who is at Newport, said over the long-distance telephone that no message had been received there, Mr. Bryan expects that the Americans in Germany will be permitted to move out within a day or two, as the mobill- zation seems to be about finished. Outside of the Huntington complica- tion there is no controversy over Amer- ican citizens between the Washington Government and any of the warring nations. Secretary Bryan announces that the situation in Great Britain is clearing up all the time. Persons in financial dis- tress are being relieved. Americans in France seem to be in better condition than those in any other country, due to the fact that French undertook to adjust matters early after the confusion re- sulting from the breaking out of hos- tilities. Switzerland, where there are about 8000 tourists, reports the largest number in financial distress, and they were being relieved today from New York, where the State Department made a deposit of $50,000 in the Swiss bank to be cabled to Minister Stovall ai Berne. Secretary Garrison’s Report. Secretary of War Garrison, the head of the Government Board of Relief, said today: „„I am very much gratified to see by the newspaper dispatches and our ad- vices that those of our citizens who hap- pened to be abroad when the war broke out are now calm and unafraid of harm. We are gradually getting in touch with them. There seems to be about 30,000 who want to come home. “It looks now as if they can be han- dled by established over-sea steamship lines and brought over at the regular passenger rates. „All our information abroad is of the same general character. We are told by persons or the press of destitution, but when we run it down we fail to find a great amount of it anywhere. A few cases where Americans were caught in isolated places caused some trouble. Our messages indicate that the per- sons most in noed of attention were in Switzerland and we have been informed today that the Americans in that coun- try are going to England through France.“ of Lorraine, and that the defense of Alsace is to be left to an Austro-Hun- garian army corps. It is reported that this army corps has reached a point within 10 miles of Basel. Importance of Colmar. The strategical importance of Col- mar, the political capital of Alsace, lies ir. the fact that it is the junction of railways going north to Strassburg and east to Freiburg and Donaueschingen. The German General Staff always has set great strategical value upon this latter line as being the highway into Alsace for their Austrian allies. As a protection against the French in- vasion of Bavaria by this route, the Germans have preserved and strength- ened the old Vauvan fort of Neu Brel- sach, which lies between the III and the Rhine, about two miles from the latter river. Neu Breisach guards the main de- file through Freiburg and the Black Forest into the valley of the upper Dan- ube. It is not possible to say at present what intentions the French have in their invasion of Alsace or whether circum- stances will permit their carrying the war into Bavaria, but the news, meager as it is, seems to point to their determi- nation te do so. If they can fall upon the Austrian col- umns coming through Freiburg before the concentration of the latter is com- plete the position of the Austrians will not be an enviabie one. The Black For- est will be at their rear and the neutral territory of Switzerland on their left . — LL EL LE LLL LLL A — IN WAR ZONE GROWS BETTE ALS ACE, A WAR-SCARRED LAND WITH MANY RUINS, IS HOME OF THE STORK Birds Never Forsake Province, Though Chimneys That Support Their Nests Are Battered Down by Bombardments. The line of the present French advance into Southern Germany is through a war-scarred, war-ravaged part of Cen- tral Europe. In every mile of their march the French are in sight of a hill- top crowned by a castle that once com- manded a strategic point, but that in frontier wars waged by French, Ger- man, Austrian or Swiss was fought over, burned and destroved until today only a pile of ruins marks the spot where it stood. Alt Breisach, which Hes on their right on the march to Colmar and which tops a great Dasaltic rock that rises 260 feet from the Rhine, was formerly the key to Southern Germany and to the land which these troops are trying to con- quer. Their forefathers destroyed it in the last century and new delimitations of territory and modern means of de- fense relegated this famous old fortress to the scrap heap and Neu Breisach, Muelhausen, Colmar and Belfort, which it once protected, have now become mil- itary centers and points of strategic im- portance. In their advance they passed through two valleys. They went from Belfort through the valley of a small tributary of the Savoureuse in the protection of their own outer defense, and then cross- ing into Germany. followed a tributary of the III to Altkirch, from there they passed northward along the Valley of the Ill. The little villages along the way had all suffered much as had the old de- fenses. Most of them at some time in their history had been the scenes of bit- terly contested battles and had been so often rebuilt that few of them stand on their original sites. Bullt on a Single Street. They are generally bullt along a single street in a straggling line of houses with white plastered walls and exposed wooden cross beams, with one or two ‘larger stone buildings that are the store house and wine press. The wooden structures go up first in the flames kindled by the torch of the invader or the fire of the artillery and the stone buildings remain standing riddled with bullets that future generations show with pride as the town’s battle scars. But the soil of the valleys is rich and productive and the people always re- turn when the storm passes. So do the storks, for though the chimneys that support their nests are battered down, they never desert this part of Alsace. Altkirch, which the French captured after severe fighting, is the largest of the towns on their march to Muelhau- sen. It is picturesquely situated, and in times of peace tourists who go off the beaten path enjoy from the tower of its little old town building a fine view down the hill slope and over the valley. They can see, too, a collection of medieval relics that the Count of Pfirt has on view and then buy a few specimens of the pottery for which Altkirch is renowned. It seems easy of defense and the Germans had a line of small forts covering the eastern ap- proach. They had not maintained, how- ever, much of a garrison at this point, depending principally upon troops from Muelhausen, which was only 10% milés away, to repel invasion. Seat of Government. Muelhausen is the most important town of upper Alsace, for not only is it the seat of government for the district but it is one of the great manufacturing points of southern Germany and a rail- road center of great value both com- mercially and strategically. Its leading | goods, which was begun here as far rack as the middle of the eighteenth century. Muelhausen has for years been a good market for American raw cot- ion. Besides its cotton mills the town is also a great manufacturing place for chemicals and in recent years it has de- veloped into one of the most important points in the empire for the manufac- ture of locomotives and railway cars. Muelhausen’s principal railway is the line from Strassburg, over which much of the heavy traffic, both passenger and freight, is carried from that city to the south into Switzerland and Italy. This road forms part of the great German system on the west bank of the Rhine. The line clings to the western side of the Ill Valley, coming close to the foot- hills of the Vosges Mountains from Colmar south. But there is a subsidiary line from Colmar along the bank of the Ill that supplies transportation to the smaller places here and also passes by a line of smaller defenses that line the river bank. At Muelhausen the line bifurcates. one road going to Basel, the other crossing the French frontier and passing through Belfort into southern France. Besides this trunk line there are two small lines that run to Krith and Katzen, at the heads of valleys in the Vosges, near the French frontier, and a spur of the Baden railroad—the main line on the east bank of the Rhine—from Muell- heim, which crosses the Rhine at Neu- enburg. Of Value to Germany. The strategic value of theses roads lies in the fact that by them relief can be hurried to this part of Alsace on both sides of the Rhine; troops can be sent ta the defense of the French frontier at three points and to the protection of Rhine bridges at Neuenburg and Alt Breisach. The character of fortifications at Muel- hausen has been preserved as one of the secrets of the German army. The French works were all dismantled and in their place was substituted a line of defenses as formulated by German military en- Sineers. There are forts at Dormach, utterbach, Illzach, Habstein and Bruns- tal, which form a ring around the town. and behind these in the Hardtwald, to the west, along the course of the III to the north. South and at Sennheim, on the west, are a second ring of defenses. Colmar Less Important. Colmar lies 17 miles to the north of Muelhausen in the III valley. It is the capital of Upper Alsace, but it has neither as large a population nor so high a rank either as a commercial or manu- facturing town. It lies much nearer the foothills of the Vosges than Muel- hausen does, and is thus more under the protection of the greater line of defenses that were constructed as a pro- tection of the valley from French ad- vance through the valleys and passes of the Alsatian Mountains. Colmar, besides the main trunk line from Strasburg to Rasel, has a road running up one of the Alsatian valleys to Muenster and from there to within a few miles of the French border. It has, too, a line west- wurd, which passes through the import- ant strategic point of Neu Breisach, crosses the Rhine at Alt Breisach, and from there, skirting the Kaiserstuhl. jcins the main Baden line at Freiburg and Rugel. Colmar’s fortifications, except on the mountainside, have never been consid- ered important. Its capture would stil! leave Neu Breisach as the chief protec- tion of this part of the valley and of the bridge over the Rhine beneath the industry is the manufacture of cotton ancient fortress of Breisach. FIANCE A —— Miss Volkening III Following Letters From Fiance. Miss Charlotte Louise Volkening of 4508 Ashland avenue, whose engagement to M. Georges Henri Monnin of Beziers, France, was announced Monday night, is ill at her home as a result of the knowledge that her flance, associated with the first cavairy reservists of France, will probably see active service in a short time. Tuesday morning Miss Volkening re- ceived two letters from Monnin, at Poitiers, France. This town is located in the western part of the republic and Monnin is probably among the cavalry reservists being mobilized. Mrs. Volk- ening said her daughter met Monnin last January. Miss Volkening is the daughter of the late E. Volkening, sec- retary of a packing house machinery company. France Forbids Publication of War Casualty Lists PARIS, Aug. 11.—To prevent the Ger- man army staff obtaining an inkling of the movements of French troops, the French Government has forbidden the publication of casualty lists.

Louis for service at home, will remain at their various employments until the British blockade of the Atlantic ‘s broken. At the Austrian consulate in the Hol- land Building, attaches said Tuesday there is no likelihood that reserves will be forwarded to the seacoast from here in the near future. Mare Seguin, the French and Belgian Consul at St. Louis, said Tuesday that about 50 French re- serves living in and near St. Louis had already departed for New York and that most of them had shipped for France in all probability. There are several hun- dred French reserves in Missouri, Seguin estimates. Dr. A. F. W. Breitling, German Consul at St. Louis, said when a reporter called that he had nothing to say. It is said the French and British reserves, of whom there are relatively few in the United States, will embark as individ- uals in going to the war, and that the British Government will allege that President Wilson's neutrality proclama- tion is being violated if at any time the German or Austrian reserves attempt to leave in shiploads. *- - 7.

RECEIPTS: STAMP TAX IN PROSPECT Estimated That Yearly Falling Off of $100,000,000 in Cus- toms Receipts Will Have to Be Met. WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.—With pros- pects that the European. conflict will be Prolonged and that as a result imports to the United States will be greatly re- duced for years to come, legislative leaders are giving consideration to the question of raising revenue in order to offset the deficiency in customs re- ceipts which must follow. Representative Oscar W. Underwood, House majority leader, admits that the falling off in Government income will be such that Congress must begin to think of some other means of bringing money into the treasury. Some emer - gency measure must be enacted in order to raise the necessary revenue. Although Mr. Underwood says no def. nite plan has been considered as yet, it is believed that the stamp tax will be imposed similar to the one which was in effect during the Spanish-America,) War, when whisky, beer and tobacco, as well as checks, mortgages and other legal documents, were penalized. “There is no immediate need of pass ing an emergency taxation bill, said Underwood today, because there is good surplus in the treasury now, but before the session ends it practically 1s certain we will have to put throug! some sort of an act.“ The majority leader called attention te the old law permitting the sale of Pana- ma Canal bonds. While about $250,000,000 in revenue could be raised in this man- ner, it is believed that a war tax’’ is preferred by those in charge of the finances of the Government. Estimates by officials of the Treasury Department place the amount that woulu have to be raised on account of the fall- ing off in our European imports a: $100,000,000 a year. New York Customs Receipts Nearly Normal So Far. NEW YORK, Aug. 11.—To date the New York customs receipts have kept up to nearly normal, notwithstanding th: war. This, it was explained at the cus- toms house, is because the withdrawal from warehouses has increased as the arriva! of cargoes has fallen off. There are now in bonded warehouses here $64,000,000 worth of goods. Duty on these is not paid until they are with- drawn. Goods withdrawn yesterday brough: $336,112. As the entire receipts for the day amounted to $438,722, all that was collected on cargoes was $82,610. ESTHER: ‘‘I'll bring the diamond engage- ment wig to the camp fire picnic.

E. MURLEMANN SUES FOR DIVORGE Miss Etelka Rombauer Files Pe- tition Immediately After Re- turn From Tour Abroad. Paul E. Muhlemann has insistently de- clared that he is not the husband of Miss Etelka Rombauer but she has re- turned from a European tour and filed suit for divorce at Kirksville, Mo., where Muhleman is a student at the American School of Osteopathy. Service in the suit was obtained upon Muhlemann Tuesday, at the home of his father, Eugene Muhlemann, of 6 Old Orchard avenue, Webster Groves, where he has been spending his summer vaca- tion. The elder Muhlemann for 90 years has been general overseer at the An- heuser-Busch Brewery. The bride is the daughter of M. T. Rombauer, a wealthy coal operaten at Novinger, Mo., a few miles northwest of Kirksville. Her visions of a happy mar ried life were shattered upon her return from Wurope, where she had been for several months with her aunt and uncle, Dr. and Mrs. E.: H. Henry of Geneva, N. Y. For she learned that as soon as her marriage was announced by her mother on June 20, it was denied by the bridegroom. “All a Fraternity Joke.” Muklemann’s only explanationof his de- nial was that “‘it was all a fraternity joke.“ Miss Rombauer’s relatives, in- cluding those living in St. Louis, were greatly exercised over Muhlemann’s un- warranted position” and, took steps to prove conclusively the affair was no fraternity oke. Their tnvestigation dis- closed that Miss Rombauer and Muhle- mann had been married March ( in East St Louis, while Miss Rombauer was the guest of her aunt, Mrs. Julius T. Rom- bauer of 3438 Flora boulevard. That night they dined with Miss Rom- bauer’s aunt, but said nothing of their marriage. Miss Rombauer returned home and confided her marriage to her mother, but kept the fact from her father, fearing he would not permit her to go to Europe as she had planned. Mrs. Rombauer waited until the latter part of June and then mailed her daugh- ter’s photograph, together with the mar- riage’ announcement, to the Post-Dis- patch. She explained she wanted the marriage made public, as her daughter would soon return from Europe. Desertion Is Charged. After returning home the bride imme- diately consultéd attorneys in Kirksville. In her divorce petition she charges de- sertion and nonsupport. She states Muhlemann has denied the marriage, which hag greatly wronged, hurt, mor- tified and humiliated her.“ The case is set for Oot. 4. Muhlemann was not at home when a Post-Dispatch reporter called, but his mother said the family’s efforts to get bim to discuss the affair were unavail- ing. He is 28 years old. His bride is 2. PAPAL DELEGATE GIVES VIEWS ON SUFFRAGE May Be Good or Bad, Depends Upon the Women,“ He De- clares at Pittburg. PITTSBURG, Pa., Aug. 11.—Addresses by the Most Rev. John Bonzano, Papa! delegate to the United States; Bishop J. F. Regis Canevin of Pittsburg, Bishop Joseph Schrembs of Toledo and Bishop Joseph F. Busch of Lead, S. D., were among the principal features of yester- day’s sessions of the Central Verein. The Papal delegate advised his hear- ers to be “frugal and do not waste your money. Do not spend your savings on foolish recreations. You should profit by the spirit and thrift so characteristic of the Germans. Prepare for old age. if you are honest and truthful, if you save your earnings, you will have no fear of old age.“ Discussing woman suffrage, he said: Jam not going to say anything for or against woman’s suffrage. It may be It all dépends upon the women themselves. SAYS MAN POSING AS OFFICER STABBED HIM St Louisan Tell Belleville Sheriff of Attack on Him at East Carondelet. Sheriff Mulconnery of Belleville is in- vestigating a story reported to his of- fice by telephone from a man who said he was Louis Demper of 2703 Geyer ave- nue, St. Louis. Demper told the Sheriff that he was accosted by a man in East Carondelet who said he was an officer. Demper claims that the man and two others who were with him jumped on him, beat him with their fists, stabbed him in the side and twisted his righ' arm until the bones were fractured. Demper said that he finally begged the men to place him under arrest and lock him up, but that instead they put him ‘aboard a ferry boat for St. Louis.

WL NS OD HOME AWAITS TRAIN CARRYING HER BODY Schoolgirls With Laurel Branches to Line Streets as Pro- cession Passes. ROME, Ga., Aug. 11.— Simplicity will mark the funeral of Mrs. Woodrow Wil- son here today as it did in the services in Washington yesterday. In deference to the wishes of the President, the exer- cises here will be brief also. There will be a 46-minute service at the First Pres- byterian Church, where Mrs. Wilson's father, the Rev. Dr. Edward S. Axson, was pastor for 17 years, and an even shorter ceremony at Myrtle Hill Ceme- tery. Rome, the girlhood home of Mrs. Wil- son, today awaited in somber attire the arrival of the funeral train from Wash- ington. Buildings in the business dis- trict and many residence sections were draped in black. Traffic was closed early on the streets through which the procession was to pass from the railway station to the church and from the church to the cemetery. Special police- men and National Guardsmen patrolled the quiet streets. Favorite Hymns to Be Sung. Because of the limited capacity of the church only members of the famil? and close friends have been invited to be present. On arrival of the funeral train at 2:30 p. m. it was planned to piace the casket in a waiting hearse and the fu- neral party was to go at once to the church, where a simple service will be held. Two of the old hymns which were Mrs. Wilson’s favorites as a girl. will be sung. The Rev. Sylvester Beach of Princeton, N. J., and the local pastor, the Rev. Dr. G. G. Snyder, are to con- duct the ceremonies. From the church the funeral proces- sion is to go direct to Myrtle Hill Cem- etery. At either side of the streets through which the cortege will pass schoolgirls will stand holding laurel branches. The services at the grave also will be conducted in the strictest pri- vacy. Cousins to Be Pallbearers, The body is to be buried by the side of those of Mrs. Wilson's father and mother. Six first cousins of Mrs. Willson have been selected as active pallbearers. They are: Edward T. Brown, Atlanta, Ga. Robert Hoyt, Wade Hoyt and Na- than Hoyt, Rome, Ga.; B. Palmer Ax- son, Savannah, Ga., and Randolph Axon, Atianta, Ga. Immediately after services at the grave, the presidential party expects to return to the special train and depart for Washington at 6 p. m. Funeral Train Stops Twenty Minutes at Atlanta; Crowd is Silent. ATLANTA, Go., Aug. 11.—A silent, re- spectful crowd, the largest that has gathered at any point between here and | Washington, assembled in this city to- day to meet the funeral train bearing the body of Mrs. Woodrow Wilson to its burial place at Rome, Go., her girlhood home. The train stopped here 20 min- utes, the journey being resumed at noon. Miss Alethia S. Axson, Miss Car- rie Belle Axson and Randolph Axson, cousins of Mrs. Wilson, joined the Pres ident's party here. Absolute quiet pre- valled in the station while the train stood there. A few persons, for the n.ost Hart close friends of the family; were admitted to the platform. The thousands who stood outside the gates remained bareheaded and silent until the train left. The Mayor and Council of Atlanta sent a wreath of flowers and evergreens and many floral offerings were received from private sources. All these were taken on board. During the short time that the special remained here, all busi- ness at the State Capitol was suspended, the Legislature adjourning as a mark of rerpect to Mrs. Wilson’s memory. Since the party left Washington few persons have seen the President. He remains in the darkened funeral car. sitting beside the casket, sorrowing, silent. None has spoken to him except hi« daughters and Dr. Grayson. To the latter he has expressed his deep appre- ciation for the sympathy displayed by the people along the route from Wash- ington.

Aug. 11.—Sorrow- fully, with bared heads and tear-stained faces, the people of her native Georgia today paid silent tribute to Mrs. Wood- row Wilson when the train bearing her body crossed the State line. At Gainsville, Ga., the birth place of Mrs. Wilson, were gathered people who knew the family in days gone by. A delegation met the train and silently offered a beautiful wreath of flowers. Tears trickled down the face of more than one onlooker. The President glanced out from time to time but was hidden from view. He seemed touched by the feeling shown by the people. He and his daughters took turns watching beside the casket and it was difficult to get him away to eat and sleep. The progress of the train was made known by the constant ring- ing of the engine bell. .Church bells, some near and seme distant, tolled and in all of the towns business was sus- pended as the special Went through.

NINE LUMBER FIRMS FAIL TO PAY FINES Two That Have Not Quit State Or Dissolved Get Statement From Court. JEFFERSON CITY, Aug 11—Nine lumber firms, whose fines aggregate $130,000, have not paid the penalties as- sessed against them by the Suprenie Court for violations of the anti-trust law, though the limit fixed by the court’s decree for the initial payments, expired Aug. 1. J. D. Allen, clerk of the court, said today that two of the concerns had been dissolved, one had forfeited its charter by failing to file with the Sec- retary of State its an itement, four had removed from ‘the State and that the other two. with headquarters in St. Louis, have not been heard from. Allen today mailed statements to the Van Cleve Lumber Co. and the Co- lonial Lumber Co., the last known ad- dresses of which were in St. Louis. The former was fined $5000 and the latter company $10,000. ‘The Dixie Lumber Co. of St. 1 and the Bradley Lumber Co. of St. Louis. have. dissolved. .‘The charter of the Alf Bennett Liimber Co. of St. Louis was forfeited. by Secretary of State Roach for failure to file the an- nual statement..

SHIP MEASURE DEBATED| New Amendment Proposes Ma- jority American Ownership. WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.—The adminis tration amendment to the shipping laws to bring foreign vessels under American register was hotly debated again today in the. Senate. Senator Saulsbury proposed a new amencment to require that ships affect- ed must have a majority ownership by Americans. Senator Pomerene, another Democrat, supported it. Any measure which did not require American owner- ship would lead to foreign complications, he argued. Senator O'Gorman declared such an amendment would defeat the purpose of the whole measure: THN FOR YEARS — ä́ä — PAdES 11—18. “Gains 22 Pounds in 23 Days” „ was all run down to the very bottom, writes F. Gagnon. ‘‘I had to quit work. I was 80 weak. Now, thanks to Sargol, I look like a new man. I gained 22 pounds in 23 days. „Sargol has put just 10 b on me in 14 days, states W. D. Roberts. It has made me sleep well, en- joy what I ate and enabled me to work with interest and pleasure.“ J weighed 132 pounds when I doramenced taking Sargol. After taking 20 days I weighed 144 pounds: Sargol is the most wonderful preparation for flesh building I have ever seen, declares D. Martin, and J. ‘Meier adds: For the past twenty years [ have taken medicine every day for indigestion and got thinner every year. I took Sargol for forty days and feel bet- ter than I have felt in twenty years. My weight -has increased from 150 to 170 pounds.“ When hundreds of men and women—and there are hundreds, with more coming every day—living in every nook and corner of this hroad land voluntarily testify to weight increases ranging all the way from 10 to 35 pounds given them by Sargol you must admit, Mr. and Mrs. and Miss Thin Reader, that there must be some- thing in this Sargol method of flesh building after all. Hadn’t you better look into it, just as thousands . others have done? Many thin folks say: I'd most anything to put on a little extra weight, but when someone suggests a way they exclaim, ‘‘Not a chance. Nothing will make me plump. I’m built to stay thin.“ Until you have tried Sargol, you do not and cannot know that. this is true. Sargol has put pounds of healthy “stay there’’ flesh on hundreds who doubted, and-in spite of their doubts. Vou don't have to believe in Sargol to grow plump from its use. You just take it and watch weight pile up, hollows vanish and your figure round out to pleas- ing normal proportions. You weigh yourself when you begin and again when you finish and you let the scales tell the story. Sargol is absolutely harmless. It is a tiny concen- trated tablet. You take one with every meal. It mixes ‘with the food vou eat for thé purpose of ‘separating all of its flesh produeing ingredients. It prepares these fat making elements in an easily assimilated form, which the blood Can-Readily absorb. and carry “all-over your body. Plump, well-developed ‘persons don’t need Sar- gol to produce this result. Their assimilative machin- ery performs its functions without aid. But thin folks’ — — assi milative organs do not. This fatty pertion of their Py 7 , — “ 82 8 * : _ YA i Se = 7 * 2 7 . “hs 2 y \ . 2 —— nd Be food now goes to waste through their bodies like un- burned coal through an open grate. A few days’ test of Sargol in your case will surely prove whether or not this is true of you. Isn't it worth trying? If you want a beautiful and well- rounded figure of symmetri- cal proportions, if you want fo gain some solid pounds of healthy stay-there flesh. if you want to increase your weight to normal, weigh what you should weigh, go straight to your druggist to- day and ‘get a package of Sargol and use it as directed. Sargol will either increase your weight or it won’t and the only way to know is to try it. A single package of Sargol easily enables you to make this test. Sixty days’ use of Sargol, according to directions, is absolutely guaranteed to increase your weight to a satisfactory degreo or your druggist will refund all the money you have paid him for it. Sargol is sold by leading druggists everywhere and in St. Louis and nn by Judge &.

The Government should guarantee war risks for American cargoes. ° Set The country could well afford to spend millions in getting American products to foreign markets all over the world. Every dollar expended in this way would be a splendid investment, not alone for the immediate profit, but for future trade with foreign countries which hitherto have bought supplies from Europe. American foodstuffs and manufactured articles can find ready sale now in all foreign countries. There should be no cessation of American trade, but on the contrary a great increase in sales at good prices. Doubtless England and France at-least will soon resume ocean transportation with their com- mercial fleets that arg not needed for war pur- poses, but meanwhile American commerce is blocked for lack of ships. The great opportunity now inviting American industry and trade depends upon shipping facili- ties.

The doppelganger is a ghost who clanks chains, tramps through empty halls or up and down staircases and rings bells. There is evidently a doppelganger at the grade crossing of the Rock Island at.Clayton. The bell at the crossing rings when no train is approaching. That it is a dop- pelganger and not merely a grounded wire is evi- dent from the fact that, Sunday night, the bell rang continuously for an hour, keeping an army of motorists waiting for the passage of a train that refused to come. Nell, book and candle being no longer in use for the exorcism of mischievous wraiths, perhaps the local branch of the Psychical Research Society can commandeer a Wellston medium to oust the troubling spirit.

Very interesting, but when was Uncle Sam ap- pointed the guardian of China, and by whom? It is proper enough for Secretary Bryan to ask the other Powers to abstain from stealing any more of China’s territory, and from abusing China’s neutrality, but perhaps, before we put our army and navy back of that request, we had better wait until China asks us to.

The American Government asked First Chief Carranza to grant a general amnesty to all con- cerned in the overthrow of Madero’s presidency and in the subsequent Huerta dictatorship. Wash- ington’s purpose was to prevent if possible. the reign of indiscriminate slaughter and looting which it feared might follow occupancy of the Mexican capital by the Constitutionalist armies. Col. Carranza conceded as much, perhaps, as the responsible head of a successful revolution could concede without loss of self-respect and of the confidence of his followers, when he made this’ reply: „Excess will not bé permitted. The con- duct of the new Government will be deter- mined by what it deems for the best inter- est of all those concerned. This conduct will be in strict harmony with the laws of war and the usages of civilized nations under similar circumstances.” With this guaranty against undue excesses, nothing should and nothing will, in all prob- ebility, be permitted to interfere with the entry cf the revolutionary armies into their capital, from which, for 67 years, the Mexican people have been ruled with iron hand by military des- pots. They have won the right to enter their capital, for once, with heads erect, as free men— and we have no doubt that occasion will be bene- ficial both to the self-liberated people and ta the srandées of their capital. 1 r ANT AND MASTODON IN COMBAT. The bulletin in which Germany announced events at Liege, which, of course, “cannot in the slightest degree influence larger operations,” re called the bulleting in which London used to an- nounce unpleasant developments in South Africa. The heroism of the Belgians can be compared to nothing in recent history but the heroism of the Boers and to nothing in earlier history but the fortitude of the Swiss. * Belgium’s industrial progress during the last 50 years has been on a scale proportioned to that of Germany itself. Belgian scientists have lent notable aid to manufacture. Processes in- vented by Belgian chemists have greatly cheap- ened many valuable products. The exports of the country have been multiplied by 10 in the half century. The resourcefulness of its industry enables it, to support the population of greatest density in Europe. An enlightened principle of its Constitution absolutely prohibits wars of aggression. But it is showing a capacity in defense that will have a place in the world’s annals. The resources of ite 11,723 square miles have been opposed to those of a territory 20 times as large. Its seven millions of people have defiled Germany’s sixty millions. Its struggle unaided last week is Hugo’s combat of the ant against the mastodon with the ant showing an extraordinary ability to hold its own. CHAMBERLIN’S FINISH. Mayor Chamberlin uttered his own political obituary when, at a meeting of the Hast St. Louis Commercial Club last week, he declared mu- nicipal ownership of a water plant would be It was his last, lame, pitiful attempt to excuse “We didn’t fix rates in the franchise,” he said, Under those circumstances, had the Mayor been 2 United States always has been, and we hope al- ways will be, exerted in behalf of international justice, this country is not and ought not to be ecncerned in any scheme to “preserve a balance of power” on other continents. Uncle Sam has : eg 1 ö 7 i : z : grown rich by att nding to his own business. A heroine is a brave woman who commands ad- miration by some daring feat. Not every heroine has an opportunity to do a heroic deed while seated in a tub. But Mrs. Caddie Albrittain, president of Missouri’s Society for the Prevention of Desecration of the Flag and a member of the Daughters of the Revolution, has that opportu- nity and will seize it. She will be hoisted, in a tub—washtub or bathtub not specified—280 feet te the top of the dome of the new capitol building | at Jefferson City, Wednesday. There, with 15 men, if they can be found, she will celebrate the completion of the steel work on the new building. So far, only one man has volunteered to go in the tub with Mrs. Albrittain. John T. Fitzpatrick, Labor Commissioner, will ascend, and will climb the 80-foot flagpole on the top of the dome and nail the colors to the mast. a One fact to be noted about Mrs. Albrittain is that she is an antisuffrage leader.

There have been several engagements in the last few days. Most of these were matrimonial, but somie of the most important engagements in the peace campaign were spirited quoit con- tests between leading citizens of Elsah. Since Elsah decided to make peace on Alton, Grafton and other neighboring principalities, demobilization has been under way. A fleet of peace-ships in the harbor is taking on gasoline and other liquids in preparation for a long campaign, Elsah being prepared to carry the peace into Calhoun County at any cost. Switching the Topic. While everyone else is talking about the war, why don’t we change the subject and talk about the weather? No difference who wins in Europe, wes will still have as much weather to the square inch in America as we ever had, Weather is the only thing in the world that never wears out. Sometimes it gets pretty dry, but it never needs 4 coat of paint to keep it from rusting and all the king’s horses and all the king’s men couldn't put it out of busi- ness, even for a day. It is a much more respectable topic than war to talk about, too. Who'll start ‘er? A Way te Fix It. In Clayton there is a grade crossing bell that rings when a train isn’t com- ing and stops ringing when a train is coming, it is reported. In this it dif- fers from the wedding bells which ring all the time in Clayton. If the grade crossing danger signal were placed in the marriage license office many colll- sions which result disastrously might be averted. Frigid Figuring. Packers’ logic is difficult to under- stand. Somehow a packer can put two and two in cold storage for awhile and make five-out of them. Our market for export beef is to be cut off by the big war. Therefore, says the packer, prices for home consumption will go up. To an unrefrigerated mind it would seem that the cutting off of exports’ would leave that much more meat to supply the home demand, and that in conse- quence it should be cheaper. Our Safety Zone. No mines have been laid in the River des Peres, and it is not likely that any will be laid in the early stages of the campaign. Here, then, is a chance win maritime supremacy for St. Louis. Why not iuvite the merchant ships e all nations to find a haven of safety in Des Peres roadstead? What to do with this splendid body of water has long been a problem. The solution is at hand.

HAT night a rush dispatch from the a superintendent of telegraphs was received by Clarkson, stating that he had grounded all the wires of the service, held up seven passenger trains, delayed the Associated Press dispatches, besides embarrassing the running of three perishable freight extras. The dispatch closed with the query: “What have you got to say for yourself?” Clarkson. studied the message alter- natively with the empty water bucket, but not finding in them anything to “say for himself,“ he decided that he would sleep over the matter and answer in the morning. He went to bed, but he couldn't sleep. The image of the. “‘hobo”’ calmly drink- ing blue-tinted, saw-edged train reports haunted him. Restlessly tossing be- tween hig sheets, he considered. How fe he do it? His interior de- partme may be cyclone-proof from drinking bad whisky, but all the others were as soggy as he, and they showed the effects of the wire all right. No, there's something about that fellow's throat—his stomach— something — In another moment Clarkson was out of bed, hurrying on his clothes with the rapidity of a fireman. A dispatch to the next station brought the reply that the hobo“ had not passed there. Evidently he was still lingering in the neighborhood of the water bucket that had made him homesick. With the aid of a track hand Clarkson located his man snoring lustily under a switched freight car. He was taken into the sta- tion, and, after being securely bound, was told to go quietly to sleep, as worse was to come. The next morning Clarkson sent his answer to the superintendent's dispatch. It ran: Grounding of wires necessary to capture Bert Alvord, and fteen thousand ollar award. Send Sh eriff; am . 28 He Wins the 815,000 — ITH the Sheriff came a number W of territorial, rallroad and ex- press officials. Bert Alvord, with his pal, who had been killed at the time, had six months previously wrecked an express car, killed the messenger, shot the Governor’s nephew, and made off with the treasure box. A standing re- ward aggregating $15,000 was offered by the Territory, the Governor, the citi- zens, and the express and railroad com- panies, for the outlaw, dead or alive. And Clarkson, who had been given his station chiefly because no one else would have it, had captured Alvord and the $15,000. “It was this way, gentlemen,” contin- ued Clarkson, after the water pail joke had been explained to the officials, ‘‘as I lay abed puzzling how he could have drunk those train reports and yellow press dispatches and not turn a hair, it suddenly flashed over me that out in Hell’s Canyon there’s a pool of water that petrifies or embalms the throat and stomach of the lost cattle that drink out of it, so they lose all feeling in those parts. Why might not this ‘hobo’ have drunk of that water and got his throat and stomach petrified, so the electricity couldnt’*affect him? Then I recollected that Bert Alvord had been driven into Hell’s Canyon by the posse and lost track of. It only took another thought-and-a- half to work out the problem. The ‘hobo’ was Alvord half crazy from his terrible experience come back to civili- zation. So I hustled out and got my man; and now for that little $15,000 com- mission.“ The “hobo” nodded his head, half fool- ishly, half surlily: “My only regret is that I ever found that lost trail and got out of Hell's Canyon.

A little garden which grew in front was all that supported Peter, for his vegetables were the nicest for miles around. One day while he was working he saw something shining in the earth where he was digging, and when he stooped to pick it up he saw it was a bean, bu: very different from any Peter had ever seen. It was yellow like gold. As he turned it over in his hand he heard something rattle inside it. He crushed it between his thumb and finger, and a tiny key dropped into his hand. That was gold color also. All day while he was at work Peter thought of the key and what it might unlock. When night came he was still thinking about it, and after he finished his supper he could not go to bed, the thought of the key made him so wide awake. „I'll go into the woods,” said Peter. That is where the fairies are, and per- haps I will see them and find out about the key and what it unlocks.”’ But he did not see the fairies. Instead he walked so far that he found himself in a strange part of the country, where there were hills and mountains and rivers, and where it was daytime instead of night, as it had been when he started from his home. S he looked about Peter saw in the distance a mountain that locke ! different from the others—it was bright like the color of gold. “That is the color of the key,“ thought Climate Failed: Medicine Effective Sufferers from Tuberculosis often chink that — will not help them. air, regular habits and good food ald in restoring health, but more is often need - any have been — te healt h by Eckman’'s Aiterative, Red! eldon, Til. “Gentlemen—Through your instrumen- tality I 2 seved & prema- After being there weeks my physician informed weeks later 4 anne was hopejess.

A bright light flashed in front of his eyes, which made Peter blink, and when he opened his eyes again he saw a door in the mountain, and looking closer, saw a tiny keyhole. Peter took the key from bis pocket he turned the key and the door opened. He stepped inside and the door was closed behind him. Peter was a little timid when he realized he was a pris- oner, but a bright light and a cheery voice saying “Come this way’ soon ended his fear. When Peter came nearer the light he saw it was a lantern carried by a little man in a funny little brown suit with a long beard. “You were pretty hard to get here,“ said the little man, smiling. “I was afraid we would have to try some other way.” “I suppose I might have appeared to be more interested,” said Peter, but you see I have to attend to my garden ‘before anything, as I have to keep it in good condition. But why do you want me to come here?“ he asked. “You shall soon hear,” said the little brown man, “but first come and meet my brothers.“ H led Peter along a path and pres- ently they came to a little village. I say little because the houses were small, and the trees, and Peter saw many little men like his companion running toward them. Peter wondered what all this meant, but he did not ask any more questions When the littl men h gathered around them Peter's companion said: “Now, Peter, we have a proposition to make to you. On the other side of this mountain lives a giant who tramples on all the gardens every year and makes the people suffer for food because just as soon as they get their vegetables growing well this giant comes down from the mountain and in a single night, With his big feet, he has crushed their gardens beyond help.

He will not be able to walk without them, and as there is not enough leather in the land to make him another pair pr a long time, we think we can find some way to be rid of him before he can get another pair.“ “But what can I do to help you with a giant?’ asked Peter. “I am only a little boy.” (Copyright by the — AN Newspaper | THIS SANDMAN STORY WILL BE CON TOMORROW. and tried it. He heard a faint click as g Useless Knowledge | VY studies. For instance, there’s the one taken up by a man out in Utah. He discovered that certain birds catch fish. So he devoted a lot of time, observation and thought to the matter and came to the conclusion that these birds eat 60,000 fish every day in the year out of Utah waters. Supposing these to weigh an average of one pound each at 10 cents a pound, giving four pounds to a person, how long would they support all the students ES, there are plenty of possible new of useless knowledge in the United States? Recently it was decided to count all the birds in the United States.

The term in- delibly” is rightly used, because of all the marks of age these are most difficult to erase, and, given head- way, never can be obliterated. The throat marks are often sharp- ly defined when a woman is 2 years of age, and, again, they do not appear on some women until twice that age. A girl should, therefore, from the time she is 20 years of age begin to take care of her throat, with a view to preserving its perfect contour, smooth skin and graceful polse. Few things are more beautiful than a well poised head. Even an ugly woman with a graceful, well-formed throat will attract and hold attention, and a beautiful woman who has let tight or high collars ruin her skin and make her throat saggy, wrinkled and discolored will lose half her at- tractiveness if the throat is not cov- ered up. Open and collarless gowns disclose few beautiful necks, and this shows how generally careless women are about taking care of themselves. It is a sim- ple thing to scrub the neck with a flesh brush and hot water every night until it is clean, rub it with cold water or ice for 10 minutes until the muscles are firm and the nerves shocked into a glow of warm blood to feed the sur- face, and then, if the neck is scrawny, gently rub and pat into it olive oll of the purest character, or mutton suet, strained and refined, or some good skin food of established reputation.

Then the throat is cleansed, and the massage begins by rubbing, with a rotary motion, from the chin downward. * Our Per Capita Debt 44 O the Federal Government was $10.59, according to the computations of the census officials at Washington. This means that for every man, woman and N June 30, the close of the fiscal year, the net per capita debt of child in the United States the Govern-— ment owes the amount mentioned. The highest point of per capita in- debtedness of this Government was reached in 1865, Civil War, when it was $79.4. Owing in part to the napid increase in popula- tion, but more to the payment of ac- cruing obligations, the debt level was constantly lowered until 1890, when it reached $13.60. The Spanish-American War in the latter 90 caused it to rise somewhat, and then the reducing proc- ess started again. In 1907, during the Roosevelt administration, the record low level of $10.06 was reached. — . 0 71 HH 1 0 ie 383 Ht 7 e 9 1 ee ur CENTAUR COMPANY, | NEW YORK.

The Amerizans will meet the craftiest tacticians in the world in Wilding and ‘Brookes, if descriptions of their play are reliable. Reports of all their matches show that they work less than their opponents, scocing as many points on the enemy's errors as on their own lacements.

Here are portions of the article Mc- Graw recently released from his system: “Only four of the umpires on the Na- tional League staff know their business at all, in my opinion. Kiem is the best in the L i and I want to put in a boost for ht here. He has been umpiring — all this year, and there have been scarcely any ic — his work. It is * and Alr. „Mal Eason has been one of the worst umpires in the League this season according to my viewpoint, although three or four of them are so bad that it is hard to tell which is the worst. Beason looks vacillating and weak, par- ticularly when he is working games in the West, where the crowds ‘ride’ the umpires hard and it takes a man with considerable courage to aol close ones against the home team. ‘Then again let us consider Byron. This umpire tries to cover his own mistakes by chasing some 2 hg to the clubhouse, an old trick of the pro- fession. Here’s a Sample. „Take an instance in the final game of the series between the Giants and Cincinnati. A ball was fouled into the grand stand, and a Polo Grounds policeman caught it. 8 was waiting to go to the bat. „ Throw the ball back,’ said Byron. „Keep it,’ shouted Snodgrass to the +44 wishing to force a new ball into he game.

The Cards can handle the Big Bear in St. Louls, but he always has been able to beat them on his home grounds. He won in a gallop yesterday, 8—2. It was a nice game until Cozy Dolan lost a fly ball in the sun. There was a lot of interest in Dolan’s muff because he “lost the ball in the sun,” even though the sky was cloudy and rain threatened. There were upwards of 8000 fans in the Brush stadium, yesterd players and all, and Cozy was the on y man who knew the sun was shining in the eighth inning. If it were put to a vote we believe 7999 of those present would have voted that the sun was ob- scured by a big black cloud. But Cozy says it was the sun, so it must have been the sun. This fly, a tall lift by Meyers, would have been the third out, but before the side was retired the Giants scored four runs, making the score very decisive. “Warm” Reception for Dolan. That the Cardinals are hustling to win and fighting for every game was evinced by the reception that Dolan got whe he reached the Cards’ bench.

CENTRAL SOUTH INTEREST RATES STILL FIRM: ON EASTERN MARKET Loans Are Made at 6 and 8 Per Cent; Outlook Is Clouded. By Leased Wire From e New York reau of the P Ren NEW YORK, Aug. II. The Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial review. today says “A sharp downward reaction in today’s Wheat market, and at the present mo- ment, wheat prices rise or fall in re- sponse to influences which would have made the stock market rise or fall, re- flected an obstacle, probably temporary, encountered in the effort to readjust foreign exchange. The situation was obscure, and even our own banking com- munity was not wholly clear in mind about it. “On the face of things, the difficulty seemed to be that our wheat exporters were insisting, properly enough, on such provision for payment before clearing their consignment, while London bankers were insisting that American exchange liabilities maturing at London be some- how ‘covered’ before drafts against our grain exports will be honored. Lombard street has suggested depos- its of gold in Canada by our bankers, ainst which London can draw to meet our maturing foreign obligations; but the wheat exporter here replies that he does not see how this will guarantee him. The merits of this dispute are dit - ficult to determine, in the absence of accurate knowledge of the balance of debits and credits as between New York and London, and in the presence of the London ‘moratorium.’ The Transvaal Gold. Not the least interesting problem in the matter of London's gold reserve, is the question of getting the $15,000,000 monthly ou put of the Transvaal safe to London. hat is a long ocean passage to guard, so long as hostile warships are on the ocean. We have witnessed, during the two past eventful weeks, many quite incredible lapses into primi- tive conditions of international finance and commerce. Now we have at least the conceivable recrudescence of the ex- ploits of Sir Francis Drake in the Spanish Main. “There was in some respect a freer market for exchange on London, al- though the rates charged were prohib- itive, except for remittances which were absolutely required. The volume of business done was small and in many cases where exchange on London was offered the bankers would not take the bills without first communicating with their London agent. “The whole situation was governed by the tie-up in exchange, and the in- ability of bankers to secure sufficient credits in Europe to make it possible for them to draw at all heavily on their toreign correspondents. Not the least point of contention was the question of war risk insurance, which the British Government has not provided for, ex- cept in a very limited way. “Grain shippers have a great deal at stake, and although the foreign ex- change bankers are anxious to relieve the situation in what way they can, the negotiations of the day showed clearly that a comprehensive system of war risk protection must be provided, in or- der to make possible any free move vent of wheat or other staples which enter largely in our export trade. „There was still a strong demand for exchange upon cities in Europe where tourists were stranded, and although the situation has been- much helped by the measures undertaken by this Gov- ernnfent, the banks had to accommo- date their customers by. arrangtuz for remittances which they did not really SUSINESS PROPERTY FOR SALE MISCELLANEOUS FACTORY BUILDING—For sale or lease: @-story brick, 22,000 sq. ft. of floor space and cellar on street car line and R.

CHICAGO, Aug. 11—Wheat prices broke quickly today under a rush of selling on the part of the commission houses. The fact that no immediate out- let could be seen for exports made buy- ing power rather limited, and had a tendency to direct attention chiefly to the prospect of supplies accumulating to a temporarily burdensome extent, not only at the seaboard, but aiso at in- terior terminals. Besides, Liverpool dis- patches said that local crops were suf- ficient for present needs. After opening N to te lower, prices here suffered further decline. Rains eased the corn market. Offer- ings of reserves from country sources led also to bearish feeling. The o ning, which ranged from Ie off to e ad- vance, was followed by a decided set- back all around. Oats sagged with other grain. At the decline, however, there was considerable buying on reating orders. wer prices for hogs carried down provisione. First sales were l5c to Ne elow last night, with pork showing the only decided subsequent rally. Assertions that seaboard exporters had resold considerable quantities of wheat to Chicago handlers prevented any .important rally. The close was weak at 2½ to 2½e net decline. Eastern demand for corn was not so active as of late, and no complete re- covery took place. The close was un- settled A down to a like amount up compar with last night. Care to make because of the difficulties and inconveniences involved. Money is Eight Per Cent. “So far as the money market was concerned, the situation was relatively comfortable. There was a good demand for money from out-of-town bangs, and institutions in the cotton belt had to be accommodated with large advances. Most of the banks continued to sharge 6 per cent to their own customers for call money, but outsiders had to pay 8 per cent in many instances. This ac- tion was explained by the fact that banks in cities where Clearing house certificates carry a 7 or 8 per cent rate, would eall loans in this market if they could not get a flat 8 per cent rate for the money here. There have been instances where sc me eut-of-town banks have threatened to withdraw large sums if the borrowers here did not agree to this advance. “There was no difficulty experienced by legitimate borro vors in getting what money they needed, and most of the money that was loaned in mercantile quarters was put out at 6 per cent. Many of the banks which received ad- vices from out-of-town clients asking them to sell bonds and other securities declined to enter into any such agree- ment. “Most of the replies stated that there was no market for securities here, and that the banks did not think it wise to try to find a market for either bonds or. short term notes, under such -ondil- tions as prevailed today. There was no buying of commercial paper to speak of, and in most cases where merchants required accommodation it was secured generally through application to their own banks.’ ST.

This was due, not only to the fact that conditions throughout this section have turned to a more normal basis, but in addition to the very 8 reports which come from all other financial centers of the United States. Not only are renew- als ing cared for at 6 per cent, but some of the large downtown banks are making new loans for the first time since the recent period an. Depositors seem to be well satisfied with the action of the banks in pro- 2 both borrowers and le rs, and the feeling may be summed up in the one word better. Rates are still a minimum of 6 per cent, with no money from any source obtaina- ble at less. St. Louls has been the cheapest money market of the coun- try right along, due to the fact that the banks here — 2 — e reserve balances, but there is isposition nor does nabs seem to be any par- ticular reason for dro — the rate at the present time. ollections gen- erally are 3 as quiet.
