WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.—Immediate charter of six vessels to go’ to Hurope for Americans was agreed on today by Secretaries McAdoo, Garrison and Dan- lels and Assistant Secretary Phillips of the State Department. They will carry 8000 passengers at as reasonable rates as possible. Secretary McAdoo made this state- ment: “It was determined b¥ the relief coni- mittee to charter six vessels and put them in condition as quickly as possibile and to send them to Europe to transport American citizens to this country. Tt was estimated that:it: would take but three weeks to provision and otherwise equip the ships for this service and to get them to Europe. They will take care of about 8000 persons. “The Secretary of War will take charge of all arrangements in connec- tion with the outfitting and‘ forwarding of these ships and of getting them bacx io America. All are American ships. it has not been determined what points these vessels will touch in Burope. The/ will go to those places where it may bt later deemed the greatest relief possible may be afforded to Americans. “Under the terms of the appropriation for this purpose the Government is to be reimbursed; that is, so far as the pas- sengers may be able. The rates of pass- age will be made as reasonable as pos- sible.’’ ee Only Three Per Cent of Americans in England Are Stranded. LONDON, Aug. 13—In view of the’ nature of the cablegrams reaching Lon- don from the United States, the Com- mittee of American Residents has con- cluded that an exaggeration has been made in some cases regarding the num- ber of Americans supposed to be suf- fering. Herbert C. Hoover of California, . the chairman of the committee, said today there were not more than 90,000 Amer- icans in England at the present moment who were desirous of returning home. “Fully 97 per cent of these,” he said. “are able under the conditions now pre- vailing to finance themselves, and only ® per cent of the Americans in. England in reality are stranded. “The committee's fund is more than amply taking care of the destitute Amer- icans and it is my belief that not more than $25,000 or $30,000 of Government money will be required to provide for them. “The position of Americans on the Continent is different, a larger propor- tion of them being students or others of minor resources. When they are able to escape from .the war territory they will be virtually destitute of cash and credit. The committee, however, does not believe that these will exceed 10,000 and the number may turn out to be much smaller. The removal of these people from the Continent is a problem still to be solved.’’ Ships of All Nationalists Are Held Up at Gibraltar LONDON, Aug. 13.—A dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph Co. says that more than 50 vessels of all nationalities have been stopped at. Gibraltar and their sailing prevented. Russian Dowager, Seriously Ill, Reaches Switzerland BERNE, Switzerland, via Paris, Aug. 13.—The Dowager Empress Maria Feo- corovna of Russia has arrived here seriously Ul and, it is stated, will un- dergo a surgical operation.

The French Consulate said there was suspicion that German warships were waiting for the Rochambeau along the route she was to take and far out at sea. The Belgian bureau announced that Belgium did not want any more reserv- ists, principally because of the risk in getting them over and the length of time it would take to prepare fresh men for the field.

Firing at Sea Heard Off Isle of Shoals, N. HH. ISLE OF SHOALS, N..-H., Aug. L.— The sound of big guns, apparently com- ing from the opén sea, last evening, gave rise to reports that a naval engagement had occurred off the New England coast. The reports, however, could not be substantiated. Life savers with pow- erful glasses could make. out no war vessels in sight. Inquiry among. the coast defense developed that some mortars had been discharged at Fort McKinley, at Portland, Me., .nearly # miles away, in a northerly direction. Some color was given to the ‘stories of a battle by the statement of Cap*. Dennison. of the coastwise steamer Gov.

PRESIDENT a INTO RISE IN FOOD PRICES Attorney-General, When Directed to See If Per- sons Responsible for Unwarranted Advances Can Be Prosecuted, Orders Special ‘Agents to Collect Data. ln, WASHINGTON, Aug... 13.—President Wilson today directed Attorney-General McReynolds to investigate recent in- creages in prices of foodstuffs and to take up the question whether any per- sons responsible can be prosecuted. The President sent the following letter to the Attorney-General: The rapid and unwarranted in- créase in the prices of food stuffs in ‘this country upon the pretext of the conditions existing in Europe is so se- rious and vital a matter that I take the liberty of calling your attention to it, I would be very much obliged if you would advise me whether there is, under ‘existing law, any action which the Department of Justice could take, either by way of investi- gation or tegat process; and what Federal legislation, if any, would in your judgment be justifiable and warrantable in the elrcumstances. I feel that this is*a matter which we cannot let pass by without trying to serve the country. Certainly the country ought to be defended, if pos- sible, against men who would take advantage of such circumstances to increase the price of food and the difficulties of living. Favors Legal Action If Possible. The President took up the question of increasing prices the first thing today rand was impressed by the pressure of the situation. He at once decided that iegal. action should be taken if possible and that if there were no laws cover- ing the question, new legislation should be passed. Officials said the President considered that in many.cases the increases were wholly unjustifiable, When he returned from Mrs. Wilson's burial at Rome, Ga.. resolutions already had been introduced in the Housge calling on the Department of Commerce. and.the Department of eustice to report what action they were taking. President Wilson's fnterest in the sit- uation, .however, was wholly apart from that and he probably would have taken action before had it not been for the death in the White House. Reply by McReynolds. Attorney-General McReynolds at once replied to the President as follows: “I have your letter of Aug. 18,.in ref- erence to the unwarranted. increase in the price of food stuffs. “The head of our special agents has been instructed to give directions to his men throughout the country to begin in- vestigations In ordet to ascertain the real facts, and I am sending the: various District Attorneys similar instructions. This should enable .us to secure some definite information in respect of true conditions. “May I take the liberty of apemesting that perhaps the agents of the Depart- ment of Commerce could render valu- able assistance along the lines indi- cated? “When we have become somewhat moré familiar witn the exact situation tT hope to be able'to make you some suggestions in respect of legal proceed- ings ‘or appropriate legislation. “The departiient has for some time beer? making investigations in various directions concerning the price of food- stuffs.

Secretary of State Bryan has not reached the point where he will discuss in any way the apparent attitude of Japan. He dismissed the subject by say- ing that the entire Eastern question was under consideration. It is reported in Washington that China, Japan and the United States are preparing to undertake the mediation ef the European war, but close observ- ers slspect that Japan is preparing to seize German possessions in Africa and China. China has asked the United States to use its good offices in having Chinese waters remain neutra!. cumstance that they are entrenching themselves on the river Ourthe, are em- ploying peasants to make routes in the south of the Province of Liege, and that in Luxemburg, they are bringing up fresh troops for reinforcement of the lihe from Maestricht to Liege, and ar: withdrawing most of their covering cav- alry regiments. “Universal execration follows the Ger- man’ troops in Belgium, where all ob- servers appear unanimous in accusing them of cruelty toward civilians un: Warranted by the attitude of the popu- lation, and forbidden by the rules of war.

NEW YORK, Aug. 13.—Seyen St. Louisans were passengers aboard the Philadelphia, which arrived last niczot | from Southampton, the first boat with’ refugees from Europe since the declar- ation of war. It carried 703 cabin pas- sengers and 309 -—in the steerage. The St. Louisans abcard were Mrs, Marie Daux, Jesse W. Barrett, an at- torney; —L. A. Cooksey, treasurer of the St. Louis. Elevator and Grain Co., living at the Buckingham Annex; Mrs. Jennie Aufrichstig, widow of Alois Auf- richstig, and her son, Albert, of 3611 Lafayette avenue; Max Hisman and @ Mr. Gross, a steamship agent. The refugees, including those from St. Louis, told stories of hardships encoun- tered in reaching England from the Continent, and of the crowded condition of the Philadelphia, necessitating th» separation of men from women, and of being compelled to find "sleeping quar- ters on the decks or wherever they could. Refugees Are Cheeréd. The passengers were glad to get back to America, and cheered the mail boat, the health officers’ boat and the revenue cutter at quarantine. The crowd at the pier cheered the Philadelphia as she moved in, and for 15 minutes the North River rang with cheers and with the whistles of vessels. The port authorities waived the regu- lation which prevents a ship which ar- rives after sundown from proceeding to her dock and facilitated tht landing of the refugees in every way possible. Within an hour and a half after the Philadelphia arrived in the lower bay’ all of the passengers had landed. The Philadelphia sailed from. South- ampton a few hours after England de- clared war on Germany. Seven Frencn torpedo boats followed the Philadelphia the first day out and forced her to stop. After the French officers became con- vinced the Philadelphia was an Amer'- can vessels she was vermitted to pro- ceed. Foreed to Enter Army. Mrs. Daux, Whose husband is a nat- uralized American citizen, said after arrival that they were in France wher the war started. .She was permitted to depart, but her husband was given his choice of going to prison or entering the army. She will appeal to the State De- | partment at Washington to obtain his release from military service In France. The Daux family resides on North King’s highway. Borrett and Cooksey were stowaways ‘when the Philadelphia sailed, but ob- tained tickets after the ship left South- ampfon. They refused to tell how they got on to the ship. They said the boat was well provisioned with food, but during the latter part of the trip there was a shortage of water. Barrett said that more than 100 mea were without berths, and slept in the smoking room or on the decks. Mrs. Aufrichstig and her son went to Europe in April. They were in Ber- lin when Austria declared war on Ser- via, and went from there to Cologne, and were about to start on a trip up the Rhine when Germany declared wor on Russia. They immediately hur- ried to get out of Germany. The trains were so crowded that young Aufrich- stig was forced to stand. At Herbes- thal, on the German-Belgian frontier, the train was stopped, and all pas- gengers forced to leave it. They walked for more than an hour to reach Aix le Chapelle. Son Was Left Behind, Mrs. Aufrichstig boarded a train there, while her son began a searca for their baggage. While he was gone the train departed with his mother. He had the tickets, and boarded a train 80 minutes later, thinking he was fol- lowing his mother. He soon learned that she was on a Paris train, and he on one for Brussels. At Liege he found her on the station platform crying. She had been put off the train. They finally reached Dover with two shillings in money, and with only half their baggage. On the Phila- delphia they had to sleep in the steerage the first day. Eisman and Gross were without money in London, but a Philadelphia business man cashed their checks. They also met there Dr. Ehrhardt, an eye specialist in St. Louls, who remained with his wife at the Hotel Cecil in London. Hundreds of passengers on board the ship rushed from the interior of France and Germany. Travelers from Paris told of mobs swarming through the streets, breaking windows and looting shops of Germans. Others told of Ger- mans caught in the French capital be- ing beaten by gendarmes and the excited citizenry. The streets near the railroad stations were piled high with abandoned bag- gage. So great was the rush of Ameéri- fans from France to England that smal! steamers in the English Channel, con- structed to accommodate from 600 to 900 persons, carried 3000 men, women and children on every trip. Woman Sits on Coach Floer, . B. Blackmore of Cincinnati, one was that day. She had a first-class ticket, but was forced to occupy a third-class compartment with a crow" of soldiers and peasants.

Aug. 2 (eighteenth.day)—The seri- Italy's Hope Lies in Downfall of Austria (By the New York Expert.) While the attention of the whole world is fixed upon the Belgian plain where hundreds of thousands of soldiers of four nations are moving toward battle, everits are taking place in Southeastern Europe which are too important to be overlooked, and are not unlikely to exer- cise a material influence in the general War. Most important of all is the bombard- ment of Antivari by the Austrian fleet. Of itself, Antivari is of no real value, as a port, or as a base for naval or military operation, But with Dulcigno, it is the single tiny Slav facade upon the Adriatic, the only ‘“‘window on the sea” of the Serbs. What is even more noteworthy is that it is the only barrier between Austrian Dalmatia and that Albanian kingdom in which Austrian and Italian ambitions clash. It is this circumstance that has made the artillery of Austria on the Adriati« awaken angry echoes in Rome, Technic- ally, the Italians protest that Austrian cannon were trained upon Italian prop- erty protected by Italian flags in Anti- vari. Actually, the anger is occasioned by the fact that Austrian operations disclose plainly what will be the line of Austrian profit if the Austro-German alliance triumphs in the present war. The Triple Alliance has broken down at the dedisive moment, because there was no human method of reconciling Austrian and Italian ambitions. For- eign dispatches allege that the Kaiser offered Italy Algeria, Tunis, the Belgian Congo. But the eyes, the ambitions of Italians, are as firmly fixed upon tite Adriatic as are those of the English upon the German Ocean. What the Straits of Dover are to the British, those of Otranto are to Italy. Slavdom and the Italians pursue parallel, not conflicting, aims in the Adriatic. Apart from the sentimental alliance between Montenegrin and Italian, arising from_-the fact that the, Queen of Italy is the daughter of Nicholas of the Black Mountain, the Italians: are fully reconciled to the prospect of an extension of Ser- via to the Adriatic, to the. union of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and even a portion of Dalmatia with Servia, and the creation -on the Danube and the Save, and along the Adriatic, of a Slav state which shall permanently block Austrian advance along the Adriatic and down the valley of the Morava to Salonica. All the good harbors of the Adriatic are on the eastern side, Trieste, Pola, Sebenico, Cattaro, Valona, every na- val base of importance, lies on the Austrian side of the narrow sea, and Sun’s Military Mrs. Blackmore was faint from want of food and water. An American she had never seen before obtained both for her. A committee formed on board the Philadelphia the last day out with the expressed purpose of assisting Ameri- cans abroad, issued a statement through it» secretary, Thomas F. Gilroy of New York) | “No words can exaggerate the Jes- perate condition of stranded Americans all over Europe outside of England,” the statement says. XN all save Valona are in Austrian hands. All, too, have Italian names, Italian- apeaking inhabitants. and were a portion of the great overseas empire of Venice until Napoleon came. Trieste, like the Trentino, is ‘Italia irrendenta” (Italy unredeemed) for the newer generation, as Venice and Piedmont were for the others. Today Italy hag to consider that, if Austria and Germany win, Servia, Mon- tenegro and the road to Salonica will all become Austrian. Austrian territory will join that of the tottering State of Albania, and not impossibly Albania it- self, with Vanona, the key, the Dover of the Straits of Otranto, will pass to the dual monarchy. She has also to consider what may possibly be the at- titude of a victorious Austria toward an ally that, at the moment of battle, for reasons of her own, however honor- able, failed to take the expected place in’ line. A victory by the allies of the west, on the contrary, would have no serious result for. Italy. whipped and perhaps dismembered, Ital- lan ambition to dominate the Adriatic, to recover Trieste and the Trentino, to establish a protectorate in Albania, even to hold permanently Rhodes and the islands of the Bodecanes in the Aegean, would be easily attainable, wholly attainable with the approval of France and England, the great naval rowers of the Mediterranean, if Italy made common cause with these na- tions. Self-interest is the deciding element with nations, as with indiwiduals, and in the case of Italy, self-interest, preju- dice and popular feeling all are in one direction. This explains why, with ever incredsing insistence, despatches from Europe forecast that Italy will pres- ently enter the -ranks of the foes of the Zweikaiserbund ae of Two Emperors. The prophesy is foolish, but it is well to recall the famous words of a great. Italian diplomatist, Count Nigra, who said ‘‘Austria and Italy can be only allies or foes."" And Italy has defi- Austrian ally in the great crisis of European history now existing. Post-Dispatch Want Ads are inexpen- sive, efficient and work with amazing rapidity.

Says Water Is Wasted. “Now the consumers pay an average of between 8 and 10 cents per 1000 gal- lons for the water they use,”’ said Wall, ‘because they must make up the cost of free water furnished for street sprinkling, for sewer flushing, for ex- tinguishing fires, for parks and publi* buildings. So that they are paying just about the same price per 1000 cubic feec for water as they pay for gas, although they are much more careful not to waste the gas.”" Under the old system of chemical clarification the city was able to trout only $000, 000 gallons in a day, and when the consumption exceeded this it resuit ed in murky drinking water, Wall said. The maxtmum daily use of water grea:- ly increased this year, Wall said, indi- cating that the capacity of the enlargod waterworks will be reached in the next 10 or 12 years, instead of by 1930, as planned when the sand filters were in- stalled. amine ia lines Bathing Suits Greatly Reduced The bathing season, from the merchant’s standpoint, is nearing its end and, in accordance with the Vandervoort policy of disposing of merchandise in the season to which it belongs, we have made reductions on Women’s and Children’s Bathing Suits that should effect an immediate clear- ance.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13—The first steamship to pass through the Panama Canal—thé Cristobal—made the trip from the Atlantic to the Pacific in 11% hours. The return trip, however, was made in 8% hours, which probably marks the average time that will be consumed by merchantmen when all of the machinery of the canal is in smooth operation.

HOLDS CASE NOT PROVEN He Expresses Conviction Trade Was Not Restrained for 7 Years Before Suit. ST. PAUL, Minn., Aug. 13.—Judge Walter A. Sanborn, in his opinion dis- Senting from the majority decision yes- terday of the United States District Court here, holding the International Harvester Co. to be a monopoly in re- straint of trade, and ordering the com- bine dissolved, declares that no cass has been feund in the books, and none has come under his observation in which thé absence of all the evils against which the anti-trust law was Girected —at the time the suit was brought, and for seven years before was 80 conclusively proved as in this suit. The majority decision of the Court was given by Circuit Judge Walter IL. Smith, with which Judge William C. Hook agreed. The majority decision gave the $140,000,000 corporation 9 days in which to submit a plan for the dis- solution of the combination into at least three independent concerns. Cy- rus H. McCormick, president of the In- ternational, has declared that the case will be taken to the United States Su- preme Court. Judge Sanborn, in his opinion, gives his reasons for dissenting from the ma- jority decision, in part, as follows: “1. Because it seems to me to give insufficient consideration to the trade conduct of the defendants at the time this suit was commenced, tn April, 1912, and for seven years before that date. “2. Because the crucial issue in this case is not whether or notin 1902 or 1908 the defendants or their predecessors by reason of the suppression of competition between five or more companies, made a combination or an attempted monopoly in restraint of trade, but it is whether or not, 10 years afterwards, in 1912, when the complaint in this suit was filed, the International company and the other defendants were then unduly or unreasonably restraining or monopo- lizing interstate or foreign trade or threatening so to do, and that “8. Because the evidence in this case has forced upon my mind the deep and abiding conviction that for at least Seven years before ‘the commencement of this suit the defendants had not been and then were not either so doing or threatening so to.do.. Under Rule of Reason, “Conceding, but not admitting, that, if the combination of 1602 and 198 had been challenged in 1908 and 1904, before the actual effect of the conduct of its business by the defendants upon inter- state and foreign trade had been dem- onstrated by the actual trial of it from 190 to 1912, a court might have pre- sumed that the defendants were violat- ing the antitrust law and have so found on the gen thatthose who have the power to violate a law are presumed to yet the demonstration by the actual trial, which the evidence seems to me to present, that at the time this suit was commenceé the defendants were, and for at least seven years be- fore than time had been, conducting the business of the International com- pany and their business without unduly restraining or monopoligzing interstate or foreign trade, ought to and y mind must, far outweigh that question- able presumption. “This alleged presumption never seemed well founded or reasonable to me, and now that the rule of reason must be applied to the interpretation of the anti-trust law, and to its appli- cation to the facts of each particular Case, as well as the other laws and to the facts of other cases, I think thi alleged presumption should be deeme functus officio. “The issue in this case is not what combination or monopoly was made in 1902, 1908 or 19804, nor whether or not that combination was violative of the anti-trust law. It is, were the defend- ants in 1912 doing, threatening to do, acts which so unreasonably restrained or monopolized interstate or foreign trade that it ig the duty of this court of equity to enjoin and prevent their fu- ture performance. Jurisdiction of Court. ‘Sections 1 and 2 of the anti-trust law forbids combinations and monopolies in undue restraint of interstate or for- eign trade and prescribe punishment by fine or imprisonment, or both, for any violation thereof, and section 725 of the revised statutes bars any prosecution under these acts for such violation three years after they are committed. If, therefore, a combination or monopo- ly in unreasonable restraint: of trade was made in 1902, 1908 or 1904, the pro- ceedings to punish for the making there- of was barred many years before this suit was commenced. “Section 4 cf the act gives juris- diction to this court to prevent and restrain violations of this act, but it grants this court no power to punish past violations thereof. This suit is not @ proceeding to punish the defendants for deeds done in the past. It is a suit in equity under section four to prevent and restrain future violations of the anti-trust law. It looks to the fu- ture, not to the past, and this court is not only without jurisdiction to punish defendants for past violations of this law, but persons who at some past time combined to unreasonably restrain or monopolize interstate or international trade were not thereby deprived of their right thereafter and now to conduct such trede tn obedience to the law. 6, so at the time this suit Was commenced and for seven years pefore that time, but they establish the converse.” J born declares that the anti- tion of the ancient &@ resurrectio of —, policy e Can af tate ipa — ” » ee ae Be Las RT Ee eS ae x — BARVESTER SUIT: rule public ang by the ute B.S. constfera ton rs) uhreasonaple restraints ts to trade was and is that by unduly re- stri tition. are ey affect; 2.

Some Unfair Acts Found, “The facts, which have been recited, and other facts and circumstances to the same effect, seem to me to estab- lish the conclusion that during the 10 years of the operation of the Interna- tional Harvester Co. neither it nor the defendants were, nor are they, drawing to it its competitors’. share of the in- terstate trade in harvesting machinery. or excluding them therefrom and tha on the other hand, the Internationa company’s proportion of this trade has been decreasing and that of its competi- tors increasing. “Among the innumerable acts of the defendants and their agents in conduct- ing their vast business for a decade the Government found some that were un- fair to competitors, but they were either unauthorized acts of subordinate agents, r sporadic and exce instances, The weight of the ence of the offi-| cers and agents of their competitors, which came in large numbers to testify, | and of all witnesses upon the subject, is all so overwhelming that the genera} conduct and the almost universal prices of the defendants and their agents was and is free from all methods and acts either unlawful, unfair or oppressive tobusiness, to restrain these advances. to fendants’ conduct of their busgi-| strained vent all acts and meth- Pest oF oppressive toward und the Prices Nearly stationary. _ * he suit was brough years before was proved as in this suit, the absence of unfair or oppressive treatment of ae or unjust or opp ve methods of competition, the absence of the drawing of an undue share of the business away from competitors and to the defendants the absence of the raising of prices of the articles affected to their consumers, the ab- sence of the limiting of the product, the absence of the deterioration of the quality, the absence of the de- crease of the wages of the laborers and of the prieen of materials, the absence, in short, of all the elemen of undue injury to the public and, undue restraint of trade, together with the presence of free ogua petition which increased the share of the com- petitors in the interstate trade and decreased the share of the defendants. Neither the Standard Oil Co. case nor the American Tobacco Co. case, nor any other authonty cited seems to me to rule this case, because in none of them was there such affirmative, and to my mind, conclusive evidence that for years before the suits were commenced the defendants had prac- ticed no acts and pursued no methods, which constituted an undue restraint of trade or an unreasonable attempt to monopolize it. “In my opinion a decree should be rendered that the complaint in this suit be dismissed without zee udice to the ri ht of the Gaines tates to bring ante er suit of like character against any of the de endants, when- ever y of them is found to be en- _ nm the commission of any acts fn olation of the anti-trust statute. oF TOUR BRA GIRS ASGHON tnt o u, j and get a 4 from Lofti ree. e Nation- al } | harvesting machine was the binder.

INT SEW DISSOLUTION ER E. A. Bancroft, in in. Staiae to Post-Dispatch, Says Decree “Rights No Wrong.” Edgar A. Bancroft, general counsel of the International Harvester Co., at Chicago, following the decision of the United States District Court at | Bt. Paul, ordering the dissolution of the Harvester combine, wired the, following statement to the Post-Dis- patch: CHICAGO, Aug. 13.—To the Post-Dis- patch: The Harvester decision is re- markable in several respects. Each of the Judges files a séparate opinion. All three agree on acquitting the In- ternational of over-capitalization or un- fair or oppressive practices or exces- sive or unreasonable prices or any wrongful conduct. The adverse majority opinion does not sustain any of the Government's charges, so often and so recently re- peated in political discussions, of mo- nopolization and coercion of local deal- ers, ‘or local price. cutting to destroy competitors, or excessive prices, or Op- pressive trade practices, or destruction of freedom of competition in the manu- facture and sale of harvesting ma- chines. New Construction of Law. The adverse decision is based upon an entirely new construction and appli- cation of the Sherman law. The violation of law found arose out of acts done in the organization of the company and the purchase of its proper- ties more than 10 years ago, and not out of any wrongful acts done in the transaction of its business or any in- juries to tne public at any time. The restraint of trade which is made the basis of the decision was the elimina- tion of the competition existing be- tween the original companies which took lace when their properties were trans- erred to the International in percentage of trade controlled by the company and the competitive condi- tions existing in 1912, when the bill was filed, are wholly ignored, ae they were made the basis -of the Govern- — prayer for relief in its peti- tion. 3 ® Punitive, Not Remedial. “ The new construction and applica- tion of the Sherman law is twofold. First, where independent competitors may not lawfully agree upon terms and prices, they may not legally unite their properties in a partnership or in one corporation. The opinion says this proposition was not mentioned in the Government's brief, or suggested by Court or counsel durfng three days of Oral argument. Second, a corporation may be decrsed illegal, and its business and properties be divided on account of an illegality ‘in its organization, however remote the time, and regardless of the condi- tions at the date of the suit and de- cree. This proposition is in direct conflict with the position taken by the Gov- ernment on this question upon the ar- gument suits and decrees in equity are to redress actual wrongs, and grant re- lief against existing evils. In this case the decree is punitive, and not remedial. Some of the per- sons who did the acts here. held to be illegal, have now no present interest in the corporation or its business. Many of the parties injuriously affected ly the decree had no connection whatever, although the sole issue made by the Government was whether the Interna- tional was restraining or monopolizing tr when this:suf was filed. The” majority opinion does not even refer to that issue, but bases its de- cision upon size and the proportion cf trade acquired by the company nearly 12 years ago. Judge Sanborn’s Opinion. This company is con@éemned (for a state of facts which no longer exists by a rule of law that never existed, till now. The dissenting opinion of Judge San- born, the presiding Judge, deals directly and exhaustively with the facts bear- ing upon the real issue in the suit and approves to the fullest_the practices of the company, and says: “The evidence in this suit seems to me to present a new case under the anti-trust law. No case has been found in the books and none has come under my observati6n, in which the absence of all the evils against which that law was directed, at the time the stit was brought and for seven years before, was so conclu- sively proved as in this suit.’’ Analysis of Court Decision. An analysis of the opinion of the Court shows: 1. That the Court does -not find that any of the organizers of the company intended to violate the lAw. 2. The Court does not find that the company, in thé conduct of its busi- ness, has violated the law. 3. The Court does not find that the door of opportunity for entering or Con- tinuing in the harvester trade has been closed or obstructed by the company. 4. The Court does. not find that there is not today free, active, strong and growing competition in harvesting ma- chines. : 5. The Court does not find that any consumer, competitor or dealer is or has been, Injured or oppressed in any degree by the company. 6. The Court does not find that there was any overcapitalization and no claim is made that the company has received — or unreasonable price or prof- ts. Yet, notwithstanding this state. of facts, unprecedented in anti-trust cases. the Court applies an entirely new test and decrees the dismemberment of the business and property of the company. The defendants are vindicated and ac- quitted of any wrongful motive or any wrongful practice, yet thousands of stockholders are cruelly punished by the decree proposed to be entered under this novel application of the Sherman law, a decree which remedies no evil and rights no wrong.

By Clarence F. Lloyd. Fielder Jones, the former manager of the White Sox, was in conference with President Gilmore of the Federal League, here Wednesday. He also had a talk with John M. Ward of the Brooklyn club. This statement was made by an official of the local club. Every effort was made to keep Jones’ visit here a secret, President Gilmore stating late in the afternoon that he had not seen or heard from the former leader of the “hitless wonders.’ Gil- more returned to Chicago Wednesday evening. Jones is probably still in Si. Lovis,- but is keeping hts whereabouts & secret. The presen@e in St. Louis of the Ward brothers and the fact that they talked with Jones lead to the belief that Jones might possibly become associated with the Brooklyn club. Fhe Wards formerly sent Walter Ward, a younger member ef the, family,. on’ the trips.with the balt club. Bill Bradley the former Cleveland third baseman, is the present manager of the Brookfeds. John M,. Ward of the Brooklyn club sald he saw Jones Wednesday, but had no conference with him regarding the purchase of stock in the Brooklyn club. He said he believes the Brook- lyn celeb owners were satisfied with Bill Bradiey as manhager. President Stelninger of the St. Louis club said he had not seen Jones. He added that he understood that Jones was in St. Louis. Phil Ball. one of the stockholders in the St. Louis club, said he had never see@ Fielder Jones, not even when he plaged baseball. Jonés spent the night at the Plaat- ers Hotel. The clerks professed ignorance of the fact that he was in the hostelry. An employe of the house recognized Jones. He checked out xt 7 o'clock Thursday morning, lb high-class tion unknown. The seizure of about baliplayers, now associated with major league clubs, is all that is necessary to make the edera! ague a stronger organization, from a playing standpoint, than the American or National Leagues, in the opinion of James A.

Feds Games Faster. “In my opinion, the Federal League today is as strong as the two big leagues,’’ said President Gilmore to the Post-Dispatch. ‘‘We certainly are play ing faster ball. Our games are played in much less than two hours’ time, something that can’t be said of the other leagues. Our players are not making as many errors. “All we need to make our league the strengest in the country is about 15 players now in the major leagues. The proper distribution of these men about our et@ht clubs would give us an excellent league. The ‘ederal League today includes some excel- lent young, material that.is being de- veloped. Some of the men have lows s0 much class that our teams need only slight igh Ate plone “I said the Feds needed about 15 men to bolster our teams, and we surely expect to have them. In fact, already our agents have signed 11 of the desired players. They will not report to the Federal League mana- gers until the beginning of the 1915 season.” Would Avoid Court War. Gilmore practically admitted that the failure of the league to procure an early favorable decision in the case of Armando Marsans. the Cuban outfielder, had been a setback, and it was really because of the fear of in- junctions being procured against players that his league had decided to await ¢he coming of the 1915 scaaen before seizing any more baliplayers. Gilmore wa the Féderal League club owners realized it was a useless expense to sign a baliplayer, only to have him prevented from playing by an injunction and have his salary con- tinue througheut the season, despite the fact that he occupied a seat on the bench. Circuit Will Stand. “There is no Intention on our part of changifig the circuit of the Fed- eral League,” continued Gilmore, “de- epite rumors and reporta to the con- trary. After a swing around the cir- cuit, I find that everyone interested in the venture is pleased. We are out- drawing the opposition in five of cur eight cities. he Chifeds are out- drawing the Cubs and are about hol4- ing’ their own with the Sox, e are and better business in Brookiyn ase ittsburg than the organized here is no intention on the part a the St. Lou magnates to toss uP the sponge. hen we started the leawue, we had no intention of mak- ing a howling success of the venture the first year.

CAPTURED BY AUSTRALIAN SIAR Williams, American, Forces Play to “Deuce” Before Suc- cumbing to Rival. FORDST HILLS, Aug. 13.—The Unit- ed States and Australasian tennis teams met on the courts of the West Side Tennis Club this afternoon for the first contests of the 1914 Davis cup battle. Twelve thousand devotees of the game formed the gallery, filling every available foot of space in the tower- ing tiers of seats that rose more than 560 feet on all sides of the playing turf. The order of the play brought to- gether in the opening single <a R. Norris. Williams II, 7. Tepresenting th United States; and Anthon \id- in of the Australasian challengers, bly which from a social standpo equaled the gatherings at iebaow Brook tn June for the international polo matches. Wilding won the toss and selected the north court, forcing Williams to serve with the sun in his eyes. The Australasians were the first to score, Wilding beating Williams jn the first set, 7 to 5. a Meyers to Play Brady in Muny Tennis Finals | Doubles Championship Will Be Decided Saturday on Fair- ground Courts. The men’s municipal tennis tourna- ment is creating considerable interest, a recent match at Forest Park drawing an enthusiastic crowd of about 600 spec- tators. At O'Fallon Park Roland Meyers and James Brady will clash in the singles, to decide the supremacy of the O’Fallon Park Division, and to gain the honor of competing in the elimination contest. On Saturday at 2:30 p.m. the Fair- ground doubles title will be settled. Camp, the Yeatman high star and his brilliant partner, Kehrman, will match their skill against the strong Jostes and Drewes combination. This will, undoubtedly, be one of the most keenly contested of matches. Bill Harris, the groundkeeper at the Fairgrounds, will referee. In the sin- gles the same four are still disputing the supremacy. The time to enter the women’s muni- cipal tennis tournament has been ex~- tended to noon, Saturday, Aug. 16.

White Sox Call for 4-Game Series; o Graduate | SERIES, which will likely settle A fifth place for a time, at vib begins at Sportsman’s Park Thursday, when the Brdwnse entertain the White Sox of Chicago, in the first of four contests. This is the first vis- it here of the crew of James John Cal- lahan since the first week of the scea- son in April. The Sox are now in fifth place, a few points ahead of the Browns. A victory for the Browné to- day will see the teams shift positions. If the Browns have their way. the Sox will be lucky to grab a sina@le game here. For the Sex crimped what- ever chance the Browns had of remain- ing pennant contenders last month by taking five successive games from the Rickeyites. The Callahan gang ?im- ply played out of its head. our of the five games won were bagged by one run margins. and three went to «x- tra innings. The Browns can wisn nothing successful for the Sox. Third baseman Howard Baker of the Evansville (Central League) team has eben signed by the White Sox. The barn-storming Brownies return od to St. Louls Thursday morning after having split fifty-fifty on their jaunt to Burlington and Keokuk, After los- ing the ‘Rumler day’ contest to ‘the Burlington team, the Brownies came back and defeated the Keokuk team, the feature —of “Jenkins day’’ in that town Wednesday. bans Taylor, tne “Kansas Cyclone,”’ occupied the hill for the Browns, and although found for eight safeties by the _bushers, came through with flying colors, 87.

You may not have to give up that $25,000 subscription ~ money after all. There now seems a chance that the Cardinals will NOT win the pennant. But there’s one thing certain—as <er- tain as anything can be in baseball: It is that Schuyler P. Britton will have to come across with a certain per cent of the year’s pay roll promised the men if they run one, two, three, four, five. The Cards shied qualify for the 15 per cent extra, which goes if they fin- ish three-four in the race. They would have to be train-wrecked to lose the 10 per cent which goes with fifth posi- tiori. That the cclub will not run one, two, is figured on the basis that New York has too big a.lead, while Boston, pa oe tically as ood a club ag the Card will finish out the season with a long ho stay, besides having more games to play than the Robisonians. Huggins Handicapped. UT while this bonus scheme is fine for the players, and keeps them up to the fighting pitch as long as there's a chance to cop, in @ way it’s a bad thing for the manager. Hus- ins, for example, would like to send ack Miller back to first, but, accord- ing to dispatches, _ the “PLAYERS WON’T STAND FOR IT,” because there’s no acceptable shortstop, and experiments at this stage might cost them a position in the race, and ihe loss of a certain bonus per cent. Thus Hu ‘gins will be “prevented by his players’ from trying out men for néxt season, for fear of antagoniziog hig spgulare. who MIGHT FEBL + a HE WAS CUTTING THEM OUT OF PIECE oF COIN by tinkering with nis club. As most managérs, with the pennant practically lost, resort to playing rew material in order to get an early iine on tryout men, Huggins’ handicap, im posed by the. “bonus,” will be consid- erable. = — * Get Your Alibis Ready! HOULD those Australians lose & the Americans in their bid for the Davis cup, they'll have at hand one perfectly useful alibi. It consists in the fact that they have been IN A CONTINUED STATE OF TOURN\A- MENT TRAINING FOR SI MONTHS, and, have been at Dayis-up- playing pitch for one month. Further- more, they have been exhausted hy three elimination matches of increasing difficulty within the past three weeks. In track and other sports, it is con- sidered practically impossible to ke2p in severe training for such extendsd periods, and when one adds to the dif- ficulty the fact that the athletes In- volved are and 38 years old, respect- ively, the probability of their being fit for the supremest test of all, at the end of such a gruelling, is not en- Windine anf Brookes have been through all that. Brookes falter in his match against Froityheim, at Pitts- burg, and again against Parke, at Bos- ton. Wilding threw himself down ¢x- hausted after the deciding point of his match with Lowe. at Boston. These men have been tested to ‘he limit. and may be excused for pleading a too-trying campaign. Let's hope if they do any alibving they do it before the coming matches; not afterward<« Don’t Count Ten, Yet. HB unofficial referees elsewhere are beginning the ten count on the hopes of our Cardinals. It’s true the team is staggering under the jolt ~ received in the East. where six icetories out of 16 games was the be b’s showing. ut the téam is coming home soon for an extended rest and will have a chance to get into the running again, if it plays any such ball as it did its last homie stay. a With the ge a clubs. of the League all weakened and inefficient on attack, the Cardinals might take some such brace as did the Boston Braves, who won 23 of 28 games, for a percentage of .821, Just a little bit added to the Cardinals’ ‘punch” would suffice to accomplish thig.

ONDITIONS this season have at times handed a puncture to the swelling occasioned by pride in the belief that baseball is a e ot science. A brief glance at a few re- cent happefiings will sci tede a gam- bler that the sport ia strictly a game of chance, in many particulars. Frere lems a few points: Salice recently pitched a p°or game iz won it. Wednesday he pitched a great game and lost it, Griner, pitehing like a one to three shot, was twice beaten. Jack Miller made a 10-to-one chance atab for a bail, grabbed it, and wen a game from the Giants. Lee Magee, going after a fiy, stum- bled and fell, bases ited game lioat. Catch meant yict Umpire failed te oad play at third base; called runner e on would have been third out. lowed, run counted, game lost. The outcome of any baseball game that’s at all close is frequently deter- mined by the merest chance, entirely ‘outside the physical or mental execution of the players. , Moral: It is a game af chance and a Gandy one in which to let the other fellow do the picking. But Then Again— N the other hand, we have the Athletics. There's no chance about? their game—it's a finch. Twit, Twit!

He went to the head of the stairs and seeing no one below, de- scended a few steps. The robber stepped from a dark corner of the vestibule and fired three shots at the clerk who fisd to the office. Patrolman Guibor heard the shots an:! saw the robber running north on Sixtn street. He pursued and other policemer joined in the chase. After an exchange of several shots the fugitive was loat at Broadway and Cass avenue. The Chase Begins. His description was telephoned to every policeman on duty and about 3:6 a. m.

At the city hospital it was found the robber’s bullet had -entered Fogarty’s chin at the point, ranged downward through his neck and lodged somewhere in the region of his left shoulder. His condition was said to be serious.

There were no life guards on duty at the swimming pool in Mannion’s Park, 6600 South Broadway, when Miss Marie Ellen Garvey of 806 Hickory street was drowned at 6 p. m. yesterday, according to Patrick Garvey, her father. He told a Post-Dispatch reporter to- day that he received this information from Albert Hamilton of 4113 Laclede avenue, who accompanied Miss Garvey to the pool. Hamilton told him also, he said, that a:life guard who was about the place in street clothing’ took time to change to a bathing suit before at- tempting to rescue the girl. Miss Garvey was standing near the rope between the shallow water and deep water, when someone dared her to go into deep water. She could only swim a little, but she went beyond the rope, accompanied by Hamilton. After he had twice assisted her back to the rope he said he was going to swim across the pool. Miss Garvey tried to Hamilton persuaded Miss Garvey to go follow him.

The protest meeting of the German and Austrian societies has accomplished one desirable thing: that is; caused the Post-Dispatch to drop her mask of neutrality and impartiality and in her editorial of Aug. 10 openly state where she stands. Th of the Germans and Austrians was cause’ larly by the fact that a supposedly unbi- ased American paper showed extreme partiality in an unnecessarily offensive manner. _ The Post-Dispatch has not attempted an analy- sis of the situation, because it would have shown that there is plenty of room for an argument as to who is right or wrong. She quickly jumped Pri eonclusion as to right or wrong, and was ded by facts. This procedure has noth- to @o with the freedom to express an opinion is the equivalent to a campaign of anti-Ger- speeches. It is evident from the editorials that the Post-Dispatch is not informed on diplo- matic procedure and has not been able to digest the news; for her it is self-understood that the Ration that sends an ultimatum while the other is already mobilising, is the aggressor. England's neutrality with a lot of strings to it was no neutrality any more, and I have not noticed any other nation tying atrings to their neutrality. Stmultaneously with this letter I request the “Aistributing department of the Post-Dispatch to Continue delivery of the paper and of course will not use it as an advertising medium.

We call attention to the massing of mem- bers of the calling at the head of the Democratic city organization as a proof of that colossal ca- pacity for blundering which has characterized the local Democratic leaders for years past. One can imagine the enthusiasm with which the Democrats who are not in the liquor business will rally to the leadership of Messrs. Dwyer, Byrne and Meisner. Let the Democratic host now adopt the bottle as the party emblem and the stein song as the battle hymn. EXPORT TAX ON FOODS. New Yorkers who are fighting outrageous in- creases in food prices made with the war as an excuse, want an export tax on farm products. They urge that it would tend to keep at home things we ourselves need and that the revenue from the export tax would make up the prospective defi- ciency in import tax No doubt it would accomplish these objects, which for the moment have temporary importance. The total impracticability of the suggestion, of all suggestions of the same sort which have been re- peatedly advanced in recent months to meet vari- ous situations, is overlooked by those who propose it. Section 9 of Article 1 of the Federal Constitu- tion, which defines the powers and limitations of Congress says: ‘ No tax or duty shall be laid on articles exported from any Btate. The wise and permanent ends held in view when this clause was incorporated in the instrument will not be suspended for temporary purposes until the clause is amended, — — — > i i NOBEL PHACE PRIZE IN 1914. How the Kaiser missed the Nobel peace prize will not be one of the points of least interest when his biography comes to be written. A month ago the Swedish authorities had decided that his efforts during 26 years to prevent a con- flict in Europe had entitled ‘him to this great honor this year. Hardly more than two weeks after the decision the ultimatums and declara- tions of war with which Burope was being be- sprinkled had forever deprived him of a chance for the distinction. The prize, one-fifth of the interest on $8,400,000, may be bestowed on an individual or a society. But where in Burope is there a person or an or- ganization whose claims are not subject to the same heavy discount from former face value as the Emperor’s? Judging by the event, no effort for peace has had much efficacy in that part of the world during 1914. Compelled to look else- where for a candidate, how can the attention of the custodians of the prize be diverted from America? We have societies whose labors for peace have had world-wide inflmence. If an individual can- a ‘didate is sought, where can one be found whose fidelity to the peace ideal, ably supported by his Secretary of State, has been shown in a more practical and effective way than that of the present incumbent of the White House during all the critical months of Mexican provocation? a “— SS ~ THE PICTURESQUE UHLANS. In the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871 the Uhlan cut a fine and impressive figure. Armed with his long lance, he was the advance guard and scout of the Prussian legions and the vil- lages in which he appeared were quickly thrown into panic at the sight of his steel-tipped weapon. The machine gun was then in its infancy, and under the name of mitrailleuse was only begin- ning to be used, experimentally, by the French armies. Now, when the Uhlan makes his advance re- connaissance, though armed with sword, pistol and carbine as well as lance, he creates no spe- cial alarm. The modern machine gun awaits him and is very apt to make his entire equipment ap- pear as obsolete as it is picturesque. The Uhlan, as a cavalryman, was first seen in Turkish armies. The word “Uhlan” means boy or youth, and he was the original boy scout of Oriental armies. Dh. ~~ A STATE OF MIND. F, T. Marineti, styled “arch-priest of Futurism,” has written a book with the title “Zang Tumb Tumb,”’ depicting, in Futurist language, his ex- perfences as war correspondent in the Balkans. It is something new—a word movie of a state of mind or rather of a swift succession of states of mind. Marineti, who has a much-indented brow, a stern eye, wide nostrils, a mustache which turns up, but is withal fat and hearty, expresses in his book modern life as it is lived by the men and women who are always on the jump after the next sensation, and who have the means of keep- ing on the jump, principally because they are quite secure in.their three meals a day and a soft bed, when desired. That, of course, like the three meals program, is not always desired, because the new sensation must be had, whether meals and bed follow or not. Here is a sample of Marineti’s book. It is one of the mildest, as most of it needs a fumble of all sorts of type, placed in all sorts of odd combina- tions. It is an impreasfonistic picture of the bom- | bardment of Adrianople by the Bulgarians: Every 5 seconds seige guns rip space open with one accord tam-tuuumb 500 echoes revolt to gnash it mince it scatter it to infinity in centre of those tum-tuuumb (50 kilometres wide) leap explosions slashes blows rapid fire batteries Vio- lenee ferocity regularity this deep bass ascend strange mad frenzied acute notes of battle Fury anguish ears nostrils open expectant i os Sy a a me Sop ad 7 as a F OX effort a er taratatatata of the rapid-fires breath. . taking screeching under bites sllllaps : traak-traak lashes picpac-pum-tumb passionate leaps (height 200 m.) of the fusillade Dawn down in And so on ad libitum, or ad tumb tumb. We have a suspicion that the individuals who are responsible for the present tumb tamb mad frenzied irregularity ferocity condition of most of Europe at this moment have for some time been living in the state of mind. pictured in Marineti’s book. i he ~~ Andrew Carnegie will probably be able to bear up fairly well until Holland is dragged into the war and begins mounting artillery upon the steps of his Hague Peace Palace. = = — = AID FOR THE WAR’S VICTIMS. Never before has the Red Cross Society been as powerfully organized as at the opening of the war which will create the most urgent need for its services known since the organization of the movement at Geneva in 1863. Perhaps because of the United States’ peaceful status, our Red Cross strength is relatively less than that of most foreign countries. It hag 6000 American nurses subject to its order and some work has been done toward providing our national society with an endowment In Japan, however, the Red Crgss has already an endowment of $10,000,000; in Austria it has endowment and other property valued at more than $2,000,000; in France its endowment is $6,- 000,000; in Russia it has 65,000 members and a large property in hospitals, ambulances and other needful appliances. In fact, in practically every civilized country, the Red Cross is represented by an organization of devoted workers for humanity. Even Turkey has a strong Red Crescent Society on paper, though it was not much in evidence in the late Balkan hostilities. Whatever differences we may have here in dis- interested America over the definition of issues involved in. the war, on one point we may all reach an agreement. The permanent position of our national Red Cross Society should be strengthened. Temporary facilities for discharg- ing its obligations abroad should be provid- ed on a scale commensurate with the probable extraordinary need. Time and energy spent in bickerings over political phases of the war might better be devoted to organizing at once for this great work7 Germany can TT be so “isolated” as to be in- accessible to thé Red Cross’ ministering emissa- ries. None of the nations staggering under the burden of war(is so rich that it can make its own relief measures adequate. We can earn the gratitude of all by helpful friendliness expressed in terms of Red Cross aid. The cry from the unfortunate victims of a detestable war should have a response from us that will be worthy of the wealthiest of all countries. a, ~~ = _ That ear-deafening silence which you hear above the roar of the cannons is produced by Col.

Yet is it not a fact that all the fighters are men? And is it not the well known purpose of the militants to get control of society and set up a Government of, by and for women, a Government under which men, reduced by war to a helpless minority, shall be enslaved? Can anybody acquainted with inside facts, as all the editorial experts are known to be, ddubt for a minute that King George showed the white feath- er, exposed his fear of the future, when he released the militants from English prisons a few days ago? Here, plainly, is a feature of the situation which demands expert elucidation, a task for which we freely concede our incompetency. = = — _ S REIGN OF REASON BEGINS. The New Haven monopoly of New England transportation decides that after all 1t does not want a fight. Finding that the administration means just what it says, that big business must place itself in conformity with law, this noto- rious offender has decided that it will permit itself to be dissolved undér the direction of the Department of Justice instead of by court order. This is the first evidence of a restored reign of reason the directors have given during a dec- ade of disastrous control. They must dispose of their holdings of Boston & Maine stock with- in one year, instead of two years and a half. To their other tributary properties independence must be restored. The civil suits of stockhold- ers for damages against these unfaithful trus- tees of New Haven interests will not be af- fected. The criminal suits to fix personal guilt will be pressed as vigorously as before. Investors will profit by the agreement for ami- cable dissolution. The rehabilitation of the wrecked company will be hastened. The victory for the administration is a brilliant one, and is notice to other offending corporations that the day of reckoning has come. Defiance of the laws investing monopoly with a erimina] quality will be continued with peril. IMMIGRANT ASSETS. Complaints of a scarcity of unskilled labor on account of the cessation of tmmigration from Europe offers a lesson in economics which should enlighten the anti-immigration demagogues. The tide of immigration which has flowed from Europe to America is one of the principal factors in our progress and prosperity. Every able-bodied immigrant is an asset—a live asset. His capacity for labor adds to the wealth of the country. Educated and akilled foreigners have contributed greatly to the efficiency of industry and the un- skilled laborers have done much of the heavy work of the country. They have built railroads and kept them in repair, built houses and dug canals. The agriculturists have made the wilderness pro- ductive. The great mass of immigrants and their chil- dren become good citizens and thus strengthen the roots of national life, '.

ELSAH, Il, Aug. %—The peace which is being waged here its causing decreased excitement daily. The peace lords are having things all their own way. Alton, Godfrey, Benbow City an@ Woodriver have been notified that peace has been declared upon them and have sent messages expressing their satis- faction and their willingness to go int» peaceful action at any time. This promises to result in some very inter- esting quoit contests in the Elsah peace zone. The Foreign Secretary for Peace is giving careful consideration to a suggestion that the: peace be carried into Calhoun County. Not desiring to take undue advantage, he believes it would be best to defer any movement in that direction until assured that Cal- houn County is prepared for peace.

If the Germans have lost 2%,000 men in killed or wounded, or anything near that number, in the attempt to open the Meuse route to Paris, the three-day en- gagement at Liege will rank among thé bloodiest encounters of modern history. To rout the French at Worth cost the Prussian army in 1870 only 10,642; to storm the pitiless Spicheren less than 5000. At Gravelotte the French loss was 14,000, the attacking Germans’ 21,000. The crowning victory of Sedan was ac- complished with a Prussian loss just under 9000. Worth and Sedan together were less fatal to German troops in 1870 than Liege in 1914, if this report is well founded, The entire Franco-Prus- sian war cost on the invaders’ side only 28,000 killed and 101,000 wounded. A field of famous fights is Belgium. There will be Fonteney, in which neither side lost 8000; and Blenheim with a loss of 12,000 for the allies and @ somewhat larger one for the French, besides pris- oners; and Lingy, with a butcher's bill of 2,000 on both sides combined. Even in the great day of Waterloo, June 18, Prussians and English together lost but 22,000 men. Austerlitz, the summit of Napoleon’s military career, cost the beaten allies, besides prisoners, less than 13,000. At Gettysburg, the “high tide of the Confederacy,” Meade’s army lost only 23,000 In killed and wounded. War news desired from only one side is prone to exaggeration. But the dura- tion of the fighting about Liege, its ob- stinate character and the desperate haste of the Germans to force a road be- fore the French mobilization is complete, leave little doubt but that the combat has been sanguine. Perhaps it will not be an ill turn for mankind if the final of defensive positions to the discourage- meat of wars of aggression. FRENCH REGIMENT'S MARCH. From the Army and Navy Journal. The French troops have always been noted for their marching ability and that they are not falling off in that re- spect was shown by the achievement of the One Hundred and Sixty-sixth Regi- ment of Infantry, which though part of fort defense forces, recently did some marching that would have done credit to field regiments. Leaving the Fort- ress of Verdun at 1a. m. dune 12, the regiment took the field, and on return- ing the following day at 1 p. m. had cov- ered in the 36 hours © kilometers, or %.8 miles, across the Plain of La Woevre. An interesting feature of this march was that the' ambulance returned empty showing the staying quality of the men from the strongest to the weakest.

The Mehsion ~ of Forgetfulness Rooted Sorrow.” j A Fantastic Tale of the Room of the Purple Ray Wherein the Mere Going Into It “Plucked From Memory All By Don Mark Lemon, UR months after the salt waves = had iaid at his feet the cold form "of his Love, came the news that Munson was the possessor of @ startling secret. He had, it was stat- ed, discovered a Purple Ray that would her and destroy certain human cells of memory without injury or danger to boring cells. This rumor was fol- lowed by the still more amazing report tliat Munson had erected the Manston of tfulness, to which all who would fee their minds of a hopeless passion might repair, and in one brief hour, And, sure enough, here they came— | who loved not wisely but too well, who loved deeply but hopelessly, those who loved the Dead and could n their grief no longer—and the Purple Ray “plucked from the memory it# rooted sorrow” and they went forth ‘from the Mansion of Forgetfulness un- | gearred and fancy-free. - ‘Yet he who showed others how to for- | get would not himself forget. It was agony to know that she was dead, and | Re would never see her face again, yet he shrank from forgetfulness as the : goul shrinks from oblivion. Try as he would, he could not drag himself from | the haunted halls of memory, though he ' femembered that the world without was wonderfully fair, and other women, per- haps as lovely as she, were waiting there to love and be loved. No! Let ethers forget, he would not! Not that § lived in hope, for had he not kissed ‘the salt foam from her dead face? But ‘that memory was all that remained of a Love who was no more. Sorrow Turns to Gladness. H’ watched them come and go— watched the many, ah, too many, pilgrims arrive with sorrowful, love-haunted faces, but depart with un- concerned, care-free looks, and at times he feared that his philanthropy was a gacrilege. There seemed something up- in this sudden transmutation of grief 4nto gladness—this swift thrusting aside of the tragic presence of sorrow | they had chosen of their own free to forget a hopeless passion, and they could now return whence they came and love again, more wisely if : came, thinking to blot out other “memories than that of a hopeless love— memories of sin and crime—but the Pur- tle Ray would not be thwarted to such base purposes, and they left, abashed and disappointed. It was in winter, when the snow was Changed to crystal as it fell upon the walls and cornices of the beautiful mar- SS gtitice. or piled itself in drifts of diamonds against the stained glass windows, when a lady came alone across the vales and entered the broad gateway of the Mansion of Forgetful- ness. ‘Something in her manner—perhaps her | hesitation at the portals— moved the master to accost her. “Kind friend,” he said, ‘“‘were it not better to remember what you now seek to forget?” As he spoke he drew closer bout his face the cowl he wore to con- al his identity from the — curi- ous. “The Purple Ray Is Oblivion.” . SIGH was the only immediate an- swer, as the pilgrim leaned wearily against a marble pillar. Then came the low-spoken words: “Perhaps I may only half forget. I pometh Femember, yet not remember so } ple Ray is oblivion itself.” “Ah, well, better I kill these painful memories than break my heart!”’ “Then, if it must be so, enter and forget.” “Show me the way and let me go quickly,”” was the plea of the veiled lady. “I have come far, and the worst is only a few steps farther on.” “Come, then!’ and the master led the way to the room of the Purple Ray. An hour passed, when the door was epened and the veiled visitor came ‘forth and descended the broad stairway. She moved quickly and lightly, and at the foot of the stairs she laughed musical- ly as she again met the master. “Have you forgotten?” he asked. “Forgotten! I know that I have for- gotten something, else why am I here. yet I do not know what I have forgot- ten.’’ “So they all say!” A flush of rosy light shone from @ slender window overhead, haloing the pilgrim like a saint. , “How beautiful everything is!” she ex- claimed. “Why do I wear this veil? I will no longer!’’ So saying, she loosened it, disclosing a face young and exquisitely fair. The man shrank back as if pierced by a bolt. “My God, it is her spirit!’’ he gasped. “No, no!”’ protested the visitor. “I am not a spirit, and I fear I am too, too human.” “You are.Morella!” whispered the man, staring before him like one peer- ing through intense darkness. “TIT am. Who are you that you ask?” “Morella! I thought you dead! I kissed you for dead.and then the waves swept me away and I saw you no more.” “Some fishermen once found me on a sandy beach, where they said I had fainted. Who are you?’ All Memory Had Gone. HE man drew back his cowl. a “Took!” There was no light of recognition in the other’s eyes. “My God! the Ray has blotted out all memory !”’ “Pray tell me what you mean,.and let me go,”’ came the passionless words. A groan was the only reply, and the man hid his face in his hands. “You seem to know what I have for- gotten. Has it aught to do with you?” “OQ Morella, it were better that I thought you dead than to know that you have forgotten! Do you not recall our bethrothal? See, you have the ring upon your hand! Does it not awaken one rec- ollection of other days?” The girl gazed blankly at the ring on her hand, and shock her head. “Has the Ray blotted out every fair memory! Have you returned to life only to forget! Try to think, dearest: Do you not remember that day in Naples when we pledged eternal love for one another?” “I remember no betrothal.’”” A deep look of pity came into the speaker’s eyes when she saw the pain her words had caused. “If remembrance is so sad, why do you not also forget?” “My love,” he groaned, “you are mak- ing the world darker to me than to dy- ing eyes! You ask me to forget! You!” “You forget that I have forgotten.”’ The man groaned in utter anguish. As she turned to go he stayed her by a gentile touch. ‘‘Wait here while I, too, go and kill that memory!” He dragged himself up the broad stair- way, looking back once when he had reached the landing, then turned and staggeréd toward the room of the Purple Ray. 8 ee ae, you will wholly forget.

(Albeit, a thin disguise for all we who know her well will agree that, purposely or not, Jane Frances Winn could not have chosen two names that describe her more fully than frank and fair.) | Even her most intimate friends might be forgiven for not knowing Miss Winn as a poetess, so rarely does she mention it and so many and varied are other avenues of approach to her acquaint- anceship. Through a voluminous journalistic output continuing through 15 years, with scarcely a holiday, as a member of the Globe-Democrat staff, one group of fol- lowers may think it knows all there is. to be known of Miss Winn. Never was a greater mistake. Before coming to St. Louis she was well known in Ohio in quite a differ- ent field of endeavor. As the mistress of several sciences, botany, chemistry and higher mathematics, she was active in several societies for scientific re- search. At one time she was vice-presi- dent of the Ohio Academy of .Science. For Many Years Miss Winn Was a School Teacher N Chillicothe, O., the literary, artistic and scientific sides of her many faceted mind found a fleld to scin- tillate and reflect themselves in an in- tellectual colony which gathered there. Mrs. Wilson Woodrow, the authoress, was another of the little stellar circie whose rays have penetrated afar. For many years Miss Winn was a teacher, and several noted men, among them Dr. Frederick Dunlap, famous. in the Wylie controversy, owe their auspi- clous beginnings to this same versatile mind. In Chillicothe, too, Miss Winn was active in forming a woman’s club which became a- civic power, and there she began to assert that interest in all movements for the advancement of women in which she has continued. An intellectual equipment any one pursuit would fail to exhaust is hers, yet for all her mental achievements Miss Winn never could have become a “high-brow.” She is too essentially hu- man for that. Of late years she has come to be interested in just folks more than in books. In newspaper work one cannot be too interested in mere hu- manity’s comings and goings. And to- day Miss Winn will tell you that in her present work she has found her metier. But that very streak tn her character which manifests itself in poetry would have been sufficient to save her from the cold and calculating career of a scientist, anyway. Nobody ‘knows how many complete poems Miss Winn has written. No collection has been made of them and she winds them off on the typewriter never to think of them again. At least two per week has been the requirement of her newspaper col- umn. At that rate during 15 years in the one department they would amount to more than 1500. But that cannot represent a fair esti- mate, for when news is scarce or time presses, her poems always serve as “fillers.” I have known her to dally over one assignment until press time loomed im- jmainent, then exclaim: “Dear me, I shall have to hurry back and write a) OLIVE AT TENTH Are Making Extreme Price Sacrifices on All Remaining Dresses, Suits, The high character of the striking apparel make these excep- tional prices doubly attractive—the sale will begin Friday morn- ing—early choosing is advisable.

He Says Banks Should Be Per- mitted to Hold Bank Notes as Reserve for a Time. By Associated Press. NEW YORK, Aug. 13—Jacob H. Schiff, head of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., at a meeting today of the New York Cham- ber of Commerce, defended the proposal advanced yesterday that Congress em- Power national banks to hold bank notes as reserve, thus freeing gold for ship- ment abroad in settlement of interna- ilonal debts. In spite of the oppositivn of this plan which has developed, Schiff’s plea was permitted to go un- challenged. His remarks were applaud- od, and the chamber without further discussion took up other business. Schiff said that it was almost impos- sible to satisfy American debts in Eu- rope, because, in view of the war, the banks had concluded not to let go of anything which could be utilized for the shipment of gold abroad. He referred to the fact that large payments would gradually fall due in Europe and he deciared that either these debts must be met or American debtors would be in default.

Broomhall’s Special International Re- view cable today says: ‘Business is being done on a greatly re- duced scale, but conditions are gener- ally assuming normal. Regarding the broad question of supply and demand, ‘t is generally evident that there will be plenty of wheat. On the other hand, we have the problem of nonexistent demand from Germany and Austria. while on the other side we are con- fronted by a probable loss of the feared Russian surplus, owing to the official prohibition of exports, and on this sup- osition the total Sookie has supply s estimated at 3 000 bu., against a rospective total greed of 5 Cooking further ahead we have to con- sider the probability, owing to the war, of a greatly reduced acreage of winter wheat both at home and Continental! countries and this will affect the sup- plies next summer. North America will certainly be the relief and it is for- tunate that the crop in the United States is large and of a good quality. Broomhall cabled: “Australia—The weather is favorable for wheat, and the area planted is expected to show an rr of 700,000 acres over last yea Pinternationsl financial arrange- ments between Great rBitain, France and the United States have been more satigfactorily arranped. “India—Further rain has fallen, and the outlook for wheat has greatly improved. “Russia—The weather is alternating between great heat and heavy rain, and crop advices under normal condi- tions would show a further lowering of crop prospects in all southern dis- tricts. “Argwentine—Advices are that the wheat crop is passive generally fa- vorable. Oats are less favorable, and the yield, from present indications, will be much under last year. “Our Argentine agent estimates the wheat shipments this week at 80,- 000 bu: last week, 456,$8$; last year, 1,088,000. Corn: This week, 2,560,- 000; last week, 3,299,000; last year, 7,842,000.” The Kansas City gram last night said: “The reports of a reopening of the Gulf ports for the shipment of grain to England, France or Belgium are premature, said E. W. Shields of the Simond Shield Grain Co. “Why should these countfies go to Galveston or New Orleans with a fleet of war- ships to protect the grain when it is so easy to protect shipments from Montreal? At present Bngland’s bread supply is in no danger, Pvery . y the ans are seizing cargoes ‘grain de ined to Germany. Three cargoes that we shipped to Germany wede taken yesterday. This wheat will all be paid for eventually. I don’t expect to see Galveston and New Orleans reopen within tiree months. The grain at those ports and en route thére should be brought back to Kansas City and resold on an emergency rate, which I think the Interstate Commirce Commission would approve.

Schiff, head of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., at a meeting today of the New York Cham- ber of Commerce, defended the proposal advanced yesterday that Congress em- power national banks to hold bank notes @s reserve, thus freeing gold for ship- ment abroad in settlement of interna- tional debts. In spite of the opposition of this plan which has developed, Schiff’s plea was permitted to go un- challenged. His remarks were applaud- od, and the chamber without further discussion took up other business. Schiff said that it vas almost impos- sible to satisfy American debts in Eu- rope, because, in view of the war, the banks had concluded not to let go of anything which could be utilized for the shipment of gold abroad. He referred to the fact that large payments would gradually fall due in Europe and he declared that either these debts must be met or American debtors would be in default. Condition of aBnks, “It is said that those responsibie for this state of affairs should suffer for it. I do not believe many honest men will agree with that view,” he said. The condition of the banks ts such, Schiff pointed out, that they cannot, under existing circumstances, decrease their gold holdings largely, but there is now reason, he contended, why emer- gency currency should not be substi- tuted for a portion of the reserves. He paid the banks should be permitted to take bank notes in their reserves for a limited time. . Gold in United States. “We have more gold than any coun- try in the world—something like $1,- 606,000,000,"" Schiff said. “We are not short of gold. I tell you what we are short of: We are short of money to pay. our debts,” he added, with a touch of satire. ‘““‘We wave the American flag and say we want to help the world, but we cannot pay our debts. We want to stand back. Do we dare to do it? Do we dare to attract stigma upon gen- erations yet unborn? “It is probable that Congress may deny us the legislation to enable banks to let the gold go. If that is so, we must bow to the law. But we must not a6 it voluntarily. The old proverb that ‘honesty is the best policy’ still holds good.”’ ~— MeAdoo-Confers With Banker om Gold Situation. WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.—Plans of New York bankers to get some action under which they may facilitate gold exports without lowering bank reserves were discussed today at a conference between Secretary McAdoo, the Fed- eral Reserve Board and H. R. Eldridgs of the National City Bank of New York. No conclusion was reached, out the necessity of upholding the credit of the United States and the banks in ev- ‘ery Way was emphasized. : Tt was suggested that the board has ample authority to reduce reserves hei‘ by banks in order to help-out the finan. ments, merely vouchsafing that the uestion of gold was discussed. During e@ conference he talked with the White DENTIFIED OLD MAN ENDS LIFE BY “LEAP FROM BOAT A man abqut 7 years old killed him- pelf this afternoon by leaping into the 5: River from a ferry boat at foot of Sidney street.

Plans*of promoters to reopen the Southern Hotel, which have been under way for more than a year, have col- lapsed, and the hotel property has been taken over by the Allen Nstate, which owns it.. Improvements costing $140,000, which have been made by the promoters, and which, it is alleged, have not bee paid for by them, go to the Allen es- tate with the return of the lease. The promoters—Frank Powell, Dod- ridge Gibson and James Turley—forme:d the Ottawa Realty Co., to manage the hotel. They made arrangements wit! Frederick Boeke and W. J. Beattie to make improvements, paying for them in notes. In May the contractors took over the property on the failure of the promoters to meet the notes, but after a few days returned it to the promoters, de- ciding that the investment necéssary to complete the improvements and fur- nish the hotel would be too great. Henry W. Allen, attorney for the Allan estate, then served notice of the cancellation of the lease and, Sunday, took back the property on the failure of the pro- moters to make the payments due. The estate then put the property in thz hands of the Mortgage Trust Co., to find a renter. James Hamilton Grover. president of the trust company, Said today that a few St. Louis men had been interested in the project and that he believed that within 8 days a com- pany’ would be formed with sufficient capital to open the hotel. LACLEDE CO. AGREES TO REMOVE BIG GAS MAIN For Several Weeks This Has Blocked Work of Eliminat- ing a Grade Crossing. The Laciede Gas Light Co. notified the city today it would remove the 24-inch gas main which for more than a monih has blocked the wofk of eliminating the Tower Grove grade crossing. The re- moval work will begin at once. At the same time President Kinsev of the Board of Public Improvements announced the board would grant tem- porary permits for the gas company to erect poles for an electric lighting sys- tem outside of the underground dis- trict, which is bounded by Spruce and Wash streets, Twenty-third street and the river. Kingey sald the city’s action was not taken because the Laclede had agree't to remove the gas main, but because the gas company and City Counselor Baird had agreed the company’s right to do an electric light business under its franchise would be submitted to the Supreme Court on an agreed statement of facts. If the Supreme Court rules the La- clede company can do an electric Ngat bysiness, the company also will receive permits for laying wires in the down- town or underground district. If the ruling should be adverse, the gas com- pany will have to remove poles erecte under temporary permits. Baird already has ruled the gas com- pany cannot do an electric business un- der its franchise. His ruling, if sus- tained by the Supreme Court, would give the Union Eleotric Light Co. a vir- tual monopoly in St. Louis. Women Beat Negro With Clubs. Mrs. Dollie Hall of 8812 Laclede ave- nue and her downstairs neighbor, Mra, Mary Mitchell, armed themselves with clubs and belabored a negro they found in the shed behind their homes yester- day evening. Thelma Hall, Mrs. Hall's 4-year-old daughter, had told her moth- er the negro had tried to coax her into the shed. The negro escaped after a sound beating.

Dp PROTESTS AGAINST TRADING ON ‘CURB’ Many Securities Are Being Sold and Bought on Outside Market. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 13.—The Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial review today, says: “On Wall street, discussion of the im- mediate problem of breaking the dead- lock in exchange was superseded, today, by two other matters of controversy. One was the hot dispute in banking circles, as to provision for our bank reserve money in case We send gold to Canada as an international credit fund. The other was the. continuance of “street trading’’ in securities. Regarding the first, there ought to be no difference of opinion, in competent financial circles, over the extraordinary proposal to ask Washington to permit the counting of national bank notes as a part of national bank reserves. This is an utterly mischievious proposal, without a shred of justification, either in economic common sense or in the needs of the occasion. “It is difficult to understand how any conservative financier can have dreamed of such a thing. It is quite of a piece With the similar suggestion, made to Secretary Cortelyu in the-panic of 1907 and instantly rejected by him, that Short-term notes, sold by the Treasury as a basis of b&nk note circulation, might be counted as reserves, when the bank examiners back was conveniently turned. , The Curb Market in Stocks. ‘As to the.irregular and unauthorized dealing in stocks upon the curb, there are two opposing considerations. Thvw Stock Exchange authorities are opposing it, on the perfectly plausible argument that if it should becomé general and if some one for purposes of mischief were to offer down prices to a ruinous level, the status of a great mass of Stock Exchange collateral, pledged against outstanding bank loans, ‘would be seriously imperiled. “On the other side, there are thesa things to be said: first, that when any official market is forcibly shut down, means will infallibly be found to resume on a no-official basis, embargoed trad- ing, and that to restrict such measures long is a broom against the incoming tide; but, second, that, since this ir- regular dealing is conducted on a pure Cash basis, ‘short selling’ or artificial depression of values is impossible. “The man who sells a hundred shares of stock in this outside market must present his share certificates: the man who buys must show his ready cash or certified check. Precisely this expe- dient was employed on the Paris Bourse after the London and New oYrk Stock Exchanges had shut down; and by all counts the Paris Bourse is open today, without and cataclysm of values. The wiser course may very possibly be, for the banks and the Stock Exchange io watch developments in this outside mar- ket, without aggressive hostility, but with the closest scrutiny of methods and results. “Thus far, the very considerable trad- ing on this basis has resulted in de- clines, as compared with the last for- mal quotations on the Stock Exchange, which are wholly negligible. Bank of Bngliand Gains Gold. “A highly interesting incident of the day, was the Bank of England weekly statement, published at the usual time. It showed, as was to be expected, a large increase in gold; the week's ad- dition to the stock in the institution’s vaults is $27,800,000, mostly § arrivais from New York. The bank's note cir- culation has been increased $32,000,000 during the week, and $31,800,000 of chat increase has been placed in the reserve of the banking department, which accordingly, despite some withdrawals on home account, now stands §$27,800,- 000 above last week. ‘‘Liabilities have also increased by the enormous sum of $1382,400,000:° but the ratio of reserve, which was 14% per cent a week ago, is now 17 per cent. Last week, the total of notes outstand- ing, not covered with gold, was $42,400,- 000; today it was only $14,600,000."’ ST. LOUIS MONEY MARKET ST. IOUIS CLEARING HOUSE. learinger.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.—Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo, mons of the Senate Finance Committee and Chairman Underwood of the Howse Ways and Means Committee, at a con- ference today, decided to draft a bill to raise $100,000,000 by additional interral revenue to meet the falling off in cus- toms receipts during the European war. Senator Simmons and Representative Underwood will confer on the plan again and the Ways and Means Commit- tee will take up the task of framing the bill as goon as possible. “Several plans have been seriously considered,”’ said Senator Simmons, “but they will not be disclosed until a decti- sion is reached. It is certain, however, that there will be no addition to cus- toms duties. Any deficit must be met by internal revenues.”’ The Post-Dispatch is the only evening news- paper in St. Louls that receives or publishes mews gathered by the Associated Press, F } Chairman Sim-. a.” -_—--— Le ae See ee eh oe Y » ee . sha oar Fo AbD ge St ge NI er i it ert: LIVESTOCK. oammkimewa: 3 ano Horses and mules.

NEW YORK, Aug. 13.—The Rubber Club of America, composed of the principal! im- porters and manufacturers of rubber in the | United States, gives out the following state- ment of conditions in the rubber industry that have arisen on account of the war: ‘“‘During the past week rubber manufa-c- turers throughout the United States have been obliged to increase the prices on their manufactured products from 15 per cent to 25 per cent on account of the crude rubber situation arising from the war between European nations. The breaking down of in- ternational exchange, together with the rela- tively smal] supplies of crude rubber in the hands of manufacturers, besides the diffi- culty of rubber importers in delivering crude rubber on their future contracts through the onan cutting off of shipping facilities, have afi contributed to produce an unprecedented situation fn this branch of trade. In some cases factory forces have been reduced to conserve raw material supplies now on hand.

Broomhall’s Special International Re- view cable today says: “Business is being done on a greatly re- duced scale, but conditions are gener- ally assuming normal. Regarding the broad question of supply and demand, ‘t is generally evident that there will be plenty of wheat. On the other hand, we have the problem of nonexistent demand from Germany and Austria. while on the other side we are con- fronted by a probable loss of the feared Russian surplus, owing to the official prohibition of exports, and on this sup- osition the total akrennaones supply s estimated at 532,000,000 bu., against a spective total demand of 524,000, ,sooking further ahead we have to con- sider the probability, owing to the war, of a greatly reduced acreage of winter wheat both at home and Continental! countries and this will affect the sup- plies next summer. North America will certainly be the relief and it is for- tunate that the crop in the United States is large and of a good quality. Broomhall cabled: “Australia—The weather is favorable for wheat, and the area planted is expected to show an increase of 700,000 acres over last year. “International financial arrange- ments between Great rBitain, France and the United States have been more satisfactorily arranwped. “India—Further rain has fallen, and the outlook for wheat has greatly improved. “Russia—The weather is alternating between great heat and heavy rain, and crop advices under normal condi- tions would show a further lowering of crop prospects in all southern dis- tricts. “Argentine—Advices are that the wheat crop is passive generally fa- vorable. Oats are less favorable, and the yield, from present indications, will be much under last year. “Our Argentine agent estimates the wheat shipments this week at 80,- 000 bu; last week, 456,$8$; last year, 1,088,000. Corn: This week, 2,550,- last week, 3,299,000; last year, Kansas City Drovers’ Tele- gram last night said: “‘The reports of a reopening of the Gulf ports for the shipment of grain to England, France or Belgium are premature, said E. W. Shields of the Simond Shield Grain Co. “Why should these countfles go to Galveston or New Orleans with a fleet of war- ships to protect the grain when it Is so easy to protect shipments from Montreal? At present Bngland’s bread supply is in no danger. Pvery day the English are seizing cargoes of grain destined to Germany. Three cargoes that we shipped to Germany wede taken yesterday.
