Frisco train No. 5, known as the ‘‘Texas Limited,’’ which left Union Station at 8:32 o’clock last might, was swept off the tracks by a cloudburst near Lebanon, Mo., 182 miles southwest ot St. Louis, about 2:30 this morning. Two passenger coathes, two mail cars and the locomotive tumbled into a nine-foot lake along- side the right of way and passengers, asleep in the two submerged : cars, were drowned. _ Seven bodies, five of them of women, were pulled out of the | _)submerged chair car after daybreak. Later in the morning 19 other bodies were recovered. It was estimated by railroad men at the scene that between 35 and. 45 persons lost their lives, a great number of whom were women and children. Esti- mates of the total number of dead were to an extent guesswork, bused upon the trainmen’s memory of the number of passengers in the chair car arid smoker. It was estimated that fully 62 per- sons were in the chair car. IDENTIFIED WRECK DEAD. HENRY WAGONER, 8&t. Louis. MRS. ELIZABETH ROSTETLER, Alliance, W. W. CHILDERS, Billings, Mo.

From Aug. 23, when the allies were defeated, the French at Givet, the British at Mons, until Sept. 1, the oampaign in France resolved itself into a methodical retreat of the French right and center toward and heyond Rheims and Soissons, and a desperate struggle by the Anglo- French forces on the left to escape annihilation. and prevent the Ger- mans from interposing between them and Paris, and achieving a second and colossal Sédan. On Aug. 26, when the British stood about Cambrai, the German enveloping movement almost succeeded. But after it failed there, the left, strongly rein- forced, succeeded in fighting back in g°0d order to the very northern forts of Paris, striking back from time to time. By Sept. 1 the great flanking move. ment had failed. The allied left wag squarely on Paris, the center stretched east behind the Marne, the right pro- longed the line to the eastern barrier fortresses. Couldn't Begin Stege. For the Germans, then, there remained several possibilities. To besiege Paris was impossible, because this would take time; moreover, the allied armies were still unbroken, the Russians were com.- ing up in the Bast and carrying a)! before them, and it was necessary to destroy the French and English armies promptly and turn east. To storm Paris was conceivably possible, but the ae ee ee cna ER PORES AON AE AEE ee - - warrant. the risk while the allied armies still stood. There remainec the breaking the allied center between Paris and the barrier forts, cutting the uliied line in half and rolling up both fractions, one on Paris, the other against the armies of the Crown Prince and Gen. von Heeringen, in Lorraine. The last was the plan chosen by the German general staff. The German left, under Gen. von Hausen and Grand Duke Albrecht, was sent against the French right standing between Vitrey-le-Fran- cols and Revigny, near Bar-le-Duc. The center struck at the French center be- tween Montmirall and Suzanne. Gen. von Buelow commanded here. On the Germar right, Gen. von Kluck, aban- doning his flanking operation, turned southeast and marched his whole army across the front of, and south of, Paris. Allied Center Tested. Gen. von Kluck’s maneuver was the decisive movement. If the French and British who had fought him from Mons to the Marne had been crushed, if the garrison of Paris were too insignificent to need more than a few flank guards to hold it back, then the arrival of Von Kluck on the left of the French center, and between it and Paris, might insure a tremendous advantage-—the center might be expected fo sag, break and let the German flood go swirling between Paris and the eastern forts irresistibly. But if the Anglo-French left were not shaken, if the Paris garrison were strong enough to take the offensive, if, above all, the French high command had not been disturbed by the long train of retreats and approximate dis- asters, then, if the center held tem- porartly, Von Kluck’s army would be in deadly peril. For the garrison of Paris, sweeping out to the east toward Méaux and the Ourcq Valley, would be at its rear, and on its right flank, while the Angio- French left would be on its front. If beth took the offensive at the same moment, Yon Kluck’s army would be possibility of VIENNA IN GLOOM EMPEROR IS BUSY WITH HIS ADVISERS Berchtold, Premiers and War Minister Confer Constant- ly With Francis-Joseph as | News Comes of Russian Victories, and People Be- come Uneasy.

VIENNA, Monday, Sept. 14, 10 a. m., via Paris, Sept. 15, 11 a. m.—The Russia’s fmereasingly vic- torious occupation of Eastern Galicia is exercising a depressing influence in Austro-Hungarian official circles and among the more intelligent class- es of the monarchy, but up to the present .the mass of the people seem credulously willing to accept as sat- isfactory the meager official bulletins given out by the authorities. They grasp eagerly report that seems half way encouraging. That anxiety is felt in higher cir- cles, however, is manifested by the long audiences the Ministers of the dual monarchy are holding constantly at Schoenbrunn with Emperor Fran- Joseph. Saturday the Emepror received Count von Berchtold, thea Minister of Foreign Affairs, both in the morning and afternoon; there have been also a number of confer- ences since last Friday with the Min- ister of War and the Austrian and Hungarian Premiers. The newspapers of Vienna maintain sn extraordinary reserve concerning the progress of the campaigns in Galicia and on the Servian frontier. Papers of Sunday, Sept. 13, tarely mentioned the battle that is reported to have been raging around Lemberg for the last six days. The only journal offering any comment on the Uemberg situation was the Neue Friere Presse, which said: ‘We can say nothing muwre than tha: the high moral quality of the Austrian and Hungarian troops must eventually prove victorious.”’ A telegra:n received in Vienna from Budapest quotes the Hungarian Minis- ter of National Defense as saying: “We stand well. Our position every- where !s good; more than this I cannot say.”’ The hews of any Cis frequent optimistic public utte-- ances of Count Stephan Tisgza, the Hungarian Preinier, latterly have ceased and the official bulletins given out in Budapest are silent regarding the campaign asainst Servia. Communications Ambiguous. A report from Budapest relates thar fighting which began several days ag? has not vet ended. Sevrian troops which crossed the frontier at severa! places are arousing uneasiness among the population, but no detailed reports can be expected at this time. This en- tire Servian movement is without im- portance, the Budapest report says, but it affords ground for anxiety. Such communications, worded in a studious! ambiguous manner, and appearing in the newspapers, are making the publi: increasingly uneasy. Amidst all these terrible anxieties the aged Emperur Francis-Joseph is report- ed in excellent health. He is workin harder and longer hours than formerty. He scrutinizes keenly all reports and it is related that no news is permitted tc be made public without his sanction. The newspapers of Vienna are labor ing under great 4ifficulties.

This is the substance of the sc of- ficial communication given out this afternoon. The text of the communication is as follows: ‘‘On our left wing during the day of yesterday, the Germans offered resistance on the north side of the River Aisne along a line marked by the Forest of L’Augle and Craonne (12 miles southeast ~ of Laon). ‘‘On our center the German line of resistance was located to ihe north of Rheims and of Chalons. In order to reach Vienne, the town in the western section of the Argonne region, the forces of the enemy, which were in the ‘southern part of the Argonne, hastened their movement of retreat. In passing between the Ar- gonne region and the River Meuse their front yesterday, at the end of the day, extended from Varennes to Consenvoye. - ‘‘On our right wing the Germans were doubling back on Ftain (in France) and on Metz, Delme and Chateau Salins (all in lorraine). ‘‘In the Vosges and in Alsace the situation is unchanged. ‘‘In Belgium the Belgian army is continuing to operate around Antwerp, causing serious losses to the enemy.’ Amiens, evacuated by the enemy several days ago, has been reoceupied by our forces.

There has been no verification. The correspondent says: _“A report has reached Dieppe that the extreme left ef the allies, after making an encircling movement, by way of Roye and Ham and joining a ferce from the Boulogne district, has compelled Gen. von Kluck material.” Gen. von Kiluck has been operating en the German right wing and has consequently been opposed to the left wing ef the allies. His army has been retiring before the allies fer several days. Reye and Mam are to the southeast ef Amiens and were ecoupied by the Germans two daye ago. the pesession of the allies. ‘te surrender with, according to one statement, 14,000 men, and according te another statement, with 25,000 men, and a quantity of guns and war Recent reports shew that these towns are now in . PARTS; Sept. 15.—Some strategists find difficulty in arranging Gen. ven Kiuck’s retreat for him, while others wisely admit they do not know what destination to give te the beaten army. The prebabdility is that Von Kluck himself does net know exactly, the forces in retreat not being always master of their own mevements. _ Having passed the line ef Compeigne and Soissons, where a defense had been prepared, it was thought it could not make a stand before the, Meuse was reached. Yesterday’s communications, however, created some confusion on this point; the first saying that the allies had oressed the Aisne River and the second stating that the Germans were trying to make a stand on the Aisne. Ne doubt the line referred to in the latter communication is that from Leen to Sissonne, which is the most faverable position for a rally this side of the Meuse. A halt there, however, is accompanied by im- mense danger from a flanking mevement and the experts look fer news ef a continuation of the retreat teday. The rigid censorship leaves room for all sorts ef hypotheses. ef these is that the allies in their retreat south left a strong force at Rheims, which is prepared now toe make trouble for the armies of Gens. yon Kluck and Von Buelow or the armies of Gens. von Hausen and the Prince of Wuerttemburg, thus preventing another cencentration move- ment toward Sedan, which is considered the only chance of reuniting the entire force. One LONDON, Sept. 15, 10:15 a. m. Military critics on both sides agree that the outcome of the campaign in the western area depends on the result of the operations of the Crown Prince’s army before Verdun, but on the question of accomplished facts the divergence is as wide as ever. Berlin maintains that the investment of Verdun is now ‘complete and, therefore, expects that within two or three days there will be a resumption of the offensive along the whole German front. On the other hand, the latest official communication issued in behalf of the allies states that the Crown Prince has been driven back and has meved his headquarters from Sainte Menehould, south ef Rheims, to Montfaucon, about 15 miles northeast. Berlin admits that the weakened German right wing has been turned back, but discounts the reverse by maintaining that it will have no effect on the general forward movement to be initiated when Verdup falls. The Crown Prince’s position before Verdun is the pivot eon which the retiring German line hag swung. Allies Took Crossings of Aisne Sunday. LONDON, Sept. 15.—The Official Press Bureau issued the following statement yesterday saying the allies had secured the crossing of -the Aisne on Sunday: z “All day yesterday the enemy stubbornly disputed the passage’ of the Aisne by our troops, but, in spite of the difMfloulty of fording the river in the face of a strong opposition, nearly all the crossings were secured by sunset. “On our right and left the French troops were confronted with a similar task, in which, like ourselves, they were successful.

In reporting to Receiver Nixon of the Frisco, the engineer said he suddenly encountered a cloudburst and that a wall of water seemed to be - sweeping toward the train. He closed the throttle in an effort to stop the train, and a moment later was swept into the lake with the engine. Tracks Affected by Rain. The tracks, at the scene of the wreck, are on a 12-foot embankment. At daybreak it was ascertained that part of the embankment under the tracks had been washed away. Receiver Nixon said he understood the wreck occurred at Goodwin Hol- low, two miles west of Lebanon. From the reports Nixon had, he concluded the train had just crossed an iron bridge spanning a depression, but he did not know whether there was water in this depression under normal condi- tions. He deducted that the cloudburst must have undermined the em- vankment, causing the tracks to collapse under the weight of the train. ll employes in the baggage car, Nixon said, had escaped. Qne man in the chair car, it was reported, lost his wife and five chil- dren. When the accident occurred he was thrown clear of the descending cbair car and swam to shore. In the submerged car his wife and children met their deaths, while be stood near by unable to aid them.

The dead and injured were taken to Lebanon, but the injured will be taken to a Springfield hospital. _ -Friseo officials snid identification of the dead was difficult because many of the men passengers had removed their coats and collars, on which a there may have been identification marks.

Thousands of Wounded Arrive. Meanwhile railroad trains are bting- ing thousands of wounded inte Vienna. On twe days last. week there arrived respectively, in the capital 240 and 3200 wounded soldiers. It certainly is a fact that the total number of wounded in Vienna is more than 2,000 men. There probably are many more thousands in Budapest and thousands more at Cra- cew, Prague, Gratz and even as far as Innsbruck. The resources of gt Red Cross are taxed to the uttermost and all classes are giving aid. Mra. Frederick C. Penfield, wife of the American -.mbassador, has organ- ized a corps of workers in the embassy and already has sent 100,00 bandages te Red Cross headquarters. Thousands of Galician Poles, chiefly Jews, are in Vienna without means of support and have to beg for food and sheiter. The Jewish charitable societfes are doing all they can to succer them. Generous free meals are dispensed daily. Youths, 20, Called to Colors. The public apprehension that all has not been going wel] with Austria is ev- idenced by a military decree issued un- der laws for the natione" defense, call- ing upon youths born in 18% to join the army for home defense. Under er- dinary circumstances these young men would not have been summoned to the colors until next spring. Men born in 1882 and 1898 have thus far been re- jected when appearing for enrollment, now they have been ordered to join the army. It is intimated further that they may be called to active service soon. but someone telephoned her early in the day, telling her ‘‘not to worry about James, as he is al) right.”’ The “Texas Limited” ig the Frisoo’s oreok all-steel flyer between St. Louis and Galveston.

Precisely this is what happened. Su1- denly, on Sept. 7, the garrison of Paris struck east. The Anglo-French force moved north tewar. Montmirail and ths Marne, andi for 48 hours the fate of Von Kluck was in doubt. Fighting des- perately, he managed tt escape the blades by a narrow margin, leaving artillery, supplies and wounded behind him. But in the struggle he lost his ammunition train, and his communica- tions were severely compromised. French Right Is Firm. By tremendous effort Von Kiuck won free about Sept. 10 and started nerth at terrific speed. Meantime, in the. east, the desperate efforts of Von Bue- low had failed. The French center was not to be broken. Pushed back beyond Sezanne and Camp-de-Mailly, it steed inexpungable; as for the right, it was equally adamant. Not enly had the attack failed, but the rapid retreat of Von Kiuck opened the rear of the Ger- man oenter. Accerdingly, it must get up and go back, and after it the left, fighting east of Vitry-le-Francois. By Sept. 18 the whole German army was going north. But it was the retreat of Ven EKluck that re- mained the critical phase of the withdrawal. On his flank lay the garrison of Paris, toward his right rear French cavalry struck, toward hig left were British cavalry, directed by Field Marshal French, perhaps the greatest living cavalry leader. After it followed the British and the French, who for weeks had _ retreated, and who now, at last, knew the joy of pursuit and pleasure of revenge. That retreat continues. For Von Kluck, the problem is precisely that of Lee after he left Richmond. Ex- actly as Lee struck for Lynchburg and a new base of supplies, Von Kluck is heading for the _ north, toward the railways leading back through Belgium to Germany. To get his exhausted army ahead of his pur- suers and obtain food and ammuni- tion is the whole purpose that directs his movements. 2,500,000 in Battle. Such, briefly, was the battle of the Marne. We are told that not less than -132,600,000 fought in it, and that in the final phase 1,600,000 allies 900,000 Germans. So far as one can new judge, it rep- resents the deliberate and magnificent planning of Gen. Joffre, who calmly permitted the Germans to inundate prov- inces and ravage cities, until by the very greatness of their labors, the pri- vations and the losses in the series of battles they fought, they game upon the final battlefield weary and spent, their feod supply reduced, their ammu- nition trains outdistanced. In this situation, after a month of retreat, Gen. Joffre suddenly struck back with the full force of superior num- bers, in far better physical condition, fighting near their bases of supplies, still unbroken in spirit, and burning to avenge not merely old wrongs, but the immediate injuries of recent defeats. French Strategy Prevatiled. The German strategy Was hended in the single determination na strike one terrific, crippling, crushing blow without delay. The French, to de- lay that blow until its firet force should be lost, its weight weakened by depie- tions necessitated by Russian advance, the human element in the magnificent machine exhausted. It was the French strategy which prevailed; it prevailed because the French, with their comrades, were able to retreat for Weeks and strike in the fourth. The Battle of the Marne will hardly end the war, but on the fields where Napoleon won his last great battles and showed himself a supreme mas- ter of war, the legend of invincibility seems to have been de- olsively shattered by the sons of the soldiers who surrendered at Sedan and Mets, aided again by the same faced doggedness which. won-Wat. BELGIANS BRING MORE CHARGES OF GERMAN GRUELTY Commission Asserts Women and Children Have Been Bayoneted. LONDON, Sept. 15.—The Official Press Bureau, acting for the Belgian legation in London, has made public the sec- ond report of the Belgian commission appointed to inquire into alleged Ger- man atrocities at Leuvain and around Malines. This repert reviews incidents hereto- fore generally reperted, but it adds the documents and evidence on which its conclusions rest. It will be published later. The commission finds that on enter- ing Louvain the Germans requisitioned food and lodging. German treops took possession of the cash in all Leuvain banks, burst open houses, pillaged and committed other excesses. The report then relate with considerable detail twe alleged instances in which women were attacked by German soldiers and as- serts that there have been instances where women and children have been stabbed with bayonets and their legs cut off. One case is cited where a werkman, cevered with kerosene, was threwn into a burning house. — Of the burning ef Louvain, the repert says: “Everything tends te prove that Ger- man regiments, through mistake, fired at ene another. At once the Germans began bombarding the town, pretending that civillans had fired on their troops, & suggestion deniei by all witnesses.’’ To spread the fire in Louvain, the re- port charges, Germans entered houses and threw hand grenades. The com- mission contends that from several places in Belgium the male population has been sent to Germany and forced to work at harvesting. WEATHER WILL REMAIN UNSETTLED, SHOWERY THD TEMPERATURES.

ON BELGIANS STRIVING — TO RETAKE A VILLAGE Kaiser’s Men Apparently Consed to Defend Weerde, Between Brussels and Antwerp, and When King Albert’s Soldiers Approached, Began Destructive Fire. By E. Alexander Powell. Special Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch and New York World in Belgium. (Copyright, 1914, by Press Pub. Ce.) ANTWERP, Sept. 15.—This was originally intended to be a story of the taking of Weerde. Owing, however, to circumstances over which neither Belgians nor I had any control, Weerde remains untaken. Yesterday morning four Belgian divisions pressed forward aleng the front. extending from Aerschot nearly te Alsote, a distance something more than 30 miles. The Belgian center rested on Sempst, two miles south of Malines, its objective being the tewn eof Weerde on the Antwerp- Brussels railway, a point of considerable strategic importance.

But they rarely see him, save in street fighting or bayonet charges. Officers indicate te the men what they are to aim at, tell them at what distance to set their sights, and order them to blaze away. That was the cease at Weerde. Occa sionally, after the explosion of a par- ticularly well-placed Belgian shell, Thompson and I, with our powerful glasses, could catch fleeting glimpres of sourrying fighters in gray, but that was all. The men below us in the trenches could see nothing except the hedges, gardens and red-roofed houses of a country tewn. They knew the en- emy was there, however, from the in- cessant rattle of musketry and machine guna, and from the screams and ex- clamations of their fellows who hap- pened to get in German bullets’ way. Late in the afternoon word was passed down the line that the Germans had been put out of action, that the enemy was evacuating the town in disorder. and that at 6:30 sharp the whole Bel- gian line would advance. Dog Batteriles Trot Up. Under cover of artillery fire, eo heavy that it sounded like thunder in the mountains, the Belgian infantry climbed cut of the trenches, and, throwing aside their knapsacks, formed up behind the road preparatory to making a grand as- sault.. A moment later a dozen dog bat- teries came trotting up and took a posi- tion on the left of the infantry. At 5:9, to the minute, the whistles of the offi- cers sounded shrilly and in a mile-long bne the chasseurs In blue and the cara- bineers in bottle green swept forward cheering. They crossed the roadway, they scram- bled over ditches, they pushed through hedges until they were within 100 yards of the line of bulldings in the outskirts of the town. Then hell itself broke loose. The whole German front, which for an hour past had replied but feebly to the Belgian fire, spat a continuous stream of lead and flame. The rolling crash of mus- ketry and the ripping snarl of machine guns was stabbed by the vicious pom- pom-pom of quick firers. From every window of the three-storied chateay op- posite, the lean muzzies of mitrailleuses poured out their hail of death. high time for us to go, but in spite of the fact that a sterm was breaking, we waited to see the ninth inning.

The Theatre Francais, which in the War of 1870 remained open, is closed, and the Nouveau Cirque, where Chocolate, the black Marceline of Paris, used to dis- port in the water, is now a hospital. There is just enough of everything. az the English say, to go on with. There are just enovgh taxicabs and fiacres, just enough restaurant, three in all, and just enough hotels. In my hotel I am the solitafy guest, and I khow of two others where American friends of mine each occupy the same enviable position.

If I wanted rolls, I could nut have them, for “petit pan” consumes too much soldierly looking. It is no wonder thie Germans objeet to them in this war. |! would want them kept out of any war in which they were* against my side. They and the English in khaki always are surrounded by crowds, and when they move on to tell their tale to a fresh audience the crowd cheers them. flour, and all bread is now baked in large loaves. Every possible service Is rendered by women. When yesterday I arrived at 4 street cleaners, dragging across the bou- levards.snakelike hose on wheels. There are women on the tram cars as con- ductors. Men not strong enough for the cam- paign are in the civil Government in every capacity. A man not in uniform wears a brassard on his arm which shows he is a postman, fireman or meés- senger. As in Brussels and London, Boy Scouts are filling the positions of messengers, clerks and watchmen once held by their seniors. Flags Are Everywhere. To offset the empty streets, there .s splendid color in teousands of flags. For miles you see from every house the flag of France or the grouped flags of all the allies. They give the city a brillant holiday air. as though for some great procession she had decked her sel?. Of the many uniforms, the most pic- turesque are those native of the soldters of Algiers and Morocco, the Turcos anda Zouaves, swaggering in red fez and baggy breeches. They are splendid an4 Also it cheered, this morning, when a motor car rolled down the” Boulevard des Capucines, bearing aloft two Ger- man standards. A soldier who had sin- gle-handed captured one of them, re- ceived the, medal militaire, the highest military honor. But an hour later, when two wounded men raced by in an auto- mobile, each wearing a German spiked helmet, the people only smiled. They knew that to own a helmet, you do nog necessarily have to fight for it, and that they can be had as souvenirs, although they command a high price. But TIT find’ that few other. things command a high price On the con- trary, owing to the scarcity of money, in order to get it people ask less than usual. As, for example, my imperial suite at $1.60 a day. In days of peace it would be many times that. Not a City of Light.

AT DISCIPLINE MARVELS Describes War Duties of Noted Musicians, and Enthusiasm Throughout Germany. Albert Stoessel, 2 years old, who has ‘been in Germany during the iast year as a student of music, has sent to his father, Al J. Stoessel of 8130 North Newstead avenue, leader of a theater orchestra, a letter containing interest- ing infermation about wartime condi- tions in Berlin, and about musicians well known in this country. Among them he mentions ‘‘Kreisler,”’ who, he says, is guarding. bridges in Vienna. This is supposed te mean Frits Kreis- ler, the noted violinist.. He writes that he was in Schwanden, Switzerland, when the war began, hav- ing left Berlin just before the crisis arose. He determined te return to Ber- lin, and although he was told it would take him 10 days, he got 6 in 60 hours, sie has since sent to Switzer- land for his grandmother, believing she will be safer in Berlin during the war. His sister, Miss Edna Stoessel, is also with him. 7 Soon after his arrival in Berlip, young Stoessel writes, he went to see some Russian young men, friends and fel- low studenta.

MUCH INVOLVED President Held $250,000 in Stock and as Surity for In-|*"° dorsement of $50,000 Note When the Transac- tions Were Begun. Another remarkable story of high finance in connection with the Bank- ers Trust Co, and John B. Franklin, its president, is disclosed by the audit of Westermann, Trader & Co., and the. appraisal of assets by the committee of bankers, showing how Franklin un- loaded a Texas’ ranch on the trust company, which loaned $190,561.27 on the property and wound up with security which the appraisers hold to be valu- less. In a sertes of articles the Post-Dis. patch has shown from the audit and appraisal the details of the management of the company which led up to its collapse last May, resulting in losses - to stockholders of $4,250,000 in the mar- ket value of«their stock, The story of the ranch, otherwise the Cross S Farming Co., is one of in- volved transfers and deals between Franklin’ and the trust company. The records are not fully complete on all the transactions, but enough is disclosed in the audit and appraisal to show many of the details. Franklin Aided Company. Sometime prior to Nov. 17, 1911, Franklin, on his personal account, had furnished financial aid to the Cross § Co., which, according to the app 1, owns 40,000 acres of land in T Franklin had indorsed the company’s note for $50,000 with the National Re- serve Bank in Kansas City. In con- sideration of the financial assistance, he received $250,000 par value of the com- pany’s stock and some lots in Crystal City, Tex. Early in November the farming com- pany needed more funds and the high finance began. The company, in which Franklin held $250,000 of the stock, ap- plied to the Bankers Trust Co., of which Franklin was president, for a loan, the exact amount of which is not - @isclosed by the audit. The matter was considered at a directors’ meeting at- tended by Franklin, Charles 8S. Marsh, vice-president of the compahy, Lester S Parker and J. P. Graham. Franklin proposed that if the trust company would take up the notes of the Cross S company which had been en- dorsed, and loan the additional amount the company desired, he would turn over to the trust company the $250,000 of stock and the Crystal City lots. This proposition was agreeable to the directors, one of whom was Franklia, and the loan was made, This left the trust company with a loan to the Cross '] $190,551.27. This property — regard to the Cros a property tol- lo “The Cross 8 Farming Co. is carried on the books of the trust company at consists of about 40,000 acres of land practically in @ solid tract, but, to use an expression, is shot to pieces because a number of tracts have been sold out of it. It is carried on the books of the company at about $18 per acre. That is, it is ros ried on the books in the shape of sal equity, there being a prior mortgage on the property of $10 per acre. How this $10 per acre was arrived at we do not know, our information. being that the land cost originally $6.50. There were afterward some charges against ‘it, which made it about $8.00. a “There are people who would not pay $10 per acre for this land, but we have "no doubt it is worth thaé and if colo- nization was made, it would be worth more. Mr. Hilliard (the president of Central National Bank) saw one farm of 80 acres which was highly improve‘ with an artesian well. The land was sold at $50 per acre, but the well cost $3600 which waters this 80 acres and about 25 acres more for a neighbor. We are giving this with the idea of showing the cost of getting started on property im that section. “If the company could finance the $400,000 of notes, most of, which are in the hands of people other than the Bankers Trust Co.; and in that way protect their equity, they would get their money out of it and perhaps in- terest. Unless they can protect this equity, it is worthless because it ap- pears to us but a question of a short time when these first lien notes will mature and the property will be fore- closed on. “We believe the property is worth $15 per acre, but ft cannot be sold, in our judgment, for more than $10 er $12. The value, therefore, of the Cross S property, is wholly dependent on the ability of the trust company to protect their equity. If they can do that, the equity is worth what it is being carried at, but we don’t believe that it would be available for four or five years, and it would then require a good deal of money. We are therefore eliminating from the assets the entire amount of the Cross S property.”’ The ability of the trust company to protect its equity and the value of Franklin’s indorsement of the Cross § paper held by the trust company are greatly discounted by the fact\ that the trust company is in the hands of the State Bank Commissioner, and Franklin has turned over all of his assets to a committee of creditors to satisfy claims against him. s | ARE YOU BURDENED WITH A BIG TASK?

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 15.—The Uni- versity of Pennsylvania Museum has just received the literal translation of the newly discovered tablet containing the Sumerian account of Paradise, the flood and the fall of man. Dr.” Landon of Jesus College, Oxford, made the translation. “The tablet,”” says Prof. Langdon, “begins by describing the land of pri- meval bliss, which it locates at Dilmun, an island in the Persian Gulf, and prob- ably connected with the mainiand ‘n prehistoric times. In this paradise dwelt mankind whom Nintud, the creatress, with the help of Enlil; had created, in what way.isa not said, but the verb em- ployed in one passage suggests a fash- ioning with the hands of some sort. From other passages we might infer that men were born as the natural off- spring of Nintud and the earth-god, Eniil. ‘In paradise Enki, the water god ani lord of al¥ wisdom, rules over all man- kind with his consort, Bamkina or a Ninila. After a long period Enki be- came dissatisfied with man because ‘He did not come uhtil him,’ which I take to mean that man did not render unto the gods the homage due them. “after the deluge this King, called Tagtug the Dine—a name which is al- most probably rendered into Semitic by Muhu (god’s wrath) appeared, and so Tagtug as in the Hebrew story of Noah, plants a garden, names the trees and plants and is permitted to eat of all but the Cassia tree. “The Cassia in Sumerian documents is the herb of healing par excellence, as well as in Semitic and Greek medi- cine. The legends in regard to it prob- ably told of its being the plant which bestowed absolute immortality. Of this plant Tagtug was not to eat, for there- by he would attain eternal life. Man- kind until this time possessed extreme longevity, but not immortality. “Tagtug, however, on his own initia- tive takes and eats. He is cursed by Nintud and becomes a prey to disease and ordinary mortality. Thus in the original Sumerian story Noah, the sur- vivor of the flood is the one who eats from the tree of life. No women is con- cerned in this disobedience, which re- sulted in our loss of perfect health, peace and countless years.” ; _____TUESDAY E EVENING, hereon 1, 1914. ISTATE REGULATION. OF PRODUCTION OF COTTON 1S FAVORED Congressmen From the South Would Avert Surplus on Heels of Failing Market. eee By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Sept. and Representatives of tHe cottun-grow- ing states, at a conference last night, voted to recommend state regulation of the production of cotton next year. This step is to avert a surplus on the heels ofa failing market due to the European ‘war. The action of the Congressmen will be communicated to a conference of South- ern Governors to be held at Atlanta, Ga., in the near future, to consider the cotton situation. Some urged that the crop should be curtailed one-half and others one-third. General discussion of the possibility of further Federal legislative action in the emergency developed a strong sentiment that Congress had done all it could do in providing an emergency currency end means for the cotton growers to take edvantage of it. It was said after the conference that the Southern Governors probably would be invited to gather in Washington soon to discuss the situation with the members of Congress. 15.—Senators Stored Cotten Receipts to Secure : Insurance Premium Notes. NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 15.—Notes se- cured by cotton warehouse receipts will be aécepted by a New Orleans life in- surance company in payment of pre- miums by farmers, the company an- nounced today. The plan is approved by the State Insurance Department. It is claimed here that many Southern industrial, mereantile and financial insti- tutions will take similar steps to assist the planters in holding cotton until the price depression due to. the. European war has been relieved. Signs Cotton Warehouse Supervision War Bill. AUSTIN, Tex., Sept. 15.—Gov.

The letter was written Aug. 21, when a siege of Paris appeared to be im- minent, and this accounts for Frueh’s facetious announcement that he is rais- ing rats for possible use as food. The letter, except for a few personal para- graphs, is as follows: “Nix. We ain't dead, we ain't even shot in the toe, and we ain’t suffering from smallpox or. any of all those other things people can imagine. But Paris is dead. More than three-fourths of the ghops and stores are closed altugether. All men between 18 and 45 years are gone; so are all the horses except those that look like kins-horses to the one that stood over the door of Dr. Blattenberg’s horse surgical parlors way back in Lima, O. Most of the autos, too, have been taken over by the Government; but a few taxis are still around without the big sign, ‘Service Militaire.’ “Most of the tramways and all of the autobusses have quit. The subway runs now and then, mostly then. Women are doing the conducting. No theaters or movies—all the cafes are closed at 8 every night. No more “Gay Paree.”’ If the Germans ever get this far they won't recognize the place. They'll pass right on and get lost or shot down in the south of France. I’ve got it. Paris is ‘playing ’possum.’ “The only thing to do here is to sit around home and grow old, play soli- taire and wish that maybe some night a fleet of Zeppelins would sail in and gives a ‘Pain’s fireworks’ exhibition. We are sitting up nights waiting for them, just like we used to when a cir- cus came to Lima. “The military authorities are expect- CROWDS AT SCHAPER ‘FALL SAMPLE SALE The fall sample sale at Schaper Brothers, Eighth street and Washing- ton avenue, which began yesterday, kas attracted large crowds the first two days, the attendance today being even larger than yesterday. The fall styles in all departments of the seven floors of the building were on display, including millinery, suits and exquisite fabrics. The price range of the goods was such that it was possible for every visitor to the store to find goods to meet their desires. The long row of show’ windows gave an indication of the goods to be found within. The women’s and mis- ses’ clothing, department on the third floor was the most popular depart- ment, according to the management, where the gowns and suits in the fall styles were on display. In this department are included waists and clothing for girls. On the second floor are the men’s and boys’ cloth- ing and infants’ wear. The home furnishing department had showings of furniture, lace cur- tains, portieres and draperies. The carpet,‘ rug and linoleum departments were popular, as were the house fur. nishings and furniture on the fifth and sixth floors.

We only hear what the Government wants us to hear, all papers are cen- sored and they all read alike.

Granting that the situation warrants emergency legislation, the report says, the bill itself goes very much farther than the line of emergency, and “opens up the whole question of the develop- ment of an American merchant ma- rine by proposing an absolute scheme of Government ownership, involving an expenditure of many millions of dol- lars, which cannot fail to demand an increase of taxes which would have to be borne by the American people.”’ DR.

They scored this magnificent achieve- ment for he first time last year. If they can maintain this record until Oct. 15 they will have completed in tm- umph the great task which they un- dertook at the summer’s opening.

They will be content only when the summer cam- paign of 1914 shall have ended in com- plete and decisive victory. It is this resolute determination that now bids fair to make the membership list of the Pure Milk League a muster roll of honor so brilliantly out of the ordinary. It is not yet too late for any girl or boy to win the distinction of league membership in the present summer's campaign to save the babies. The campaign still has 30 days to run. The tenement babies need all the he!p they can get. Grim Death will menace them unceas- ingly until the frosty days of autumn shall have come. Every entertainment given by chil- dren for the benefit of the Post-Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund during this period will mean the saving of baby lives in the tenements. Every dollar earned in this manner, or by means of the little lemonade stands and other enterprises conducted] by children, will help to save the life of a baby of the tenements.

Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. — If it is right and legal for Uncle Sam to levy. hundreds of millions of protective tariff taxes on farmers for the benefit of the city capitalists and workmen; To borrow $400,000,000 to build a Panama Canal for the benefit of manufacturers, traders and ship owners; To spend $1, 000,000, 000 since 1875 improving rivers and harbors for the benefit of transporta- tien interests and. contractors: To loan $30,000,000 te build irrigation works ever the West for the benefit of desert land To set up Federal labor agencies in all the chief cities for the benefit of wage earners; And to issue hundreds of millions of “emer- gency currency” for the benefit of national bank- ere who, loan it out for all it will bring, Why is it not right and legal for Uncle Sam to ‘ Jean or temporarily invest a few millions to save the cotton farmers from ruin by ‘having to sell their 1914 crop for 3 to % cents a pound below cost of production? Why is it not right and legal for the people to use their collective oredit, through the only pos- sible agency, to save themselves from losing sev- eral hundred million dollars worth of real values which they and their wives and children have by the hardest labor created in the cctton fields? Or are we to understand that the Government can only use such powers to benefit city people? Are the farmers beyond the pale? A FARMER. | A Bridge Question. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. It seems to me the Citizens’ Bridge Committee is somewhat premature in asking candidates to pledge themselves for the completion of the bridge by an expression of support for the bond issue to be voted on Nov. 6. In the Mayor's elec- tion held April 1, 1918, each and every oné of the four party platforms pledged the repeal of the Southern Traction franchise and every vote cast in that election meant its unconditional repeal— if elections mean anything at all. Nothing has been done in the matter so far and, naturally, men who are not merely fishing for votes, will wait until the Municipal Assembly has acted on this paramount issue this fall. Besides, even to those inclined to use the pres- tige of the membership of the Citizens’ Bridge Committee for the advancement of their own can- . Gidacies, the prospect is not encouraging, except to Republicans, for I find in the margin of the letter addressed to me that the Committee on “Candidates’ Support” consists of Mr. Richard 8. : g complaints are being made about the lack the sanitary laws of this city, to mention the continued spit- g : R&2 : mostly where smoking is permitted. » the ushers in these theaters, and what doing while the law is being continually broken in their presence? The managements of the theaters take pride in the fact that their ex- haust fans will change the air in their respective buildings in three or four minutes. No doubt the air needs changing at least that often. The same law that requires janitors of public bulldings to see that the sanitary regulations are - @bserved in the premises in their care requires the : GOON LE thee TERETE: — ARB pa gsi * - ————— enn A LAW WITH TEETH IN IT. | If President Wilson signs the Federal Trade Commission bill, now before him for approval, the interstate and international commerce of the United States will be subject to regulation under a law amply supplied with teeth. It affords business men every reasonable safe- guard against injustice, by granting them the right of appeal from the commiasion’s orders to the Circuit Court of Appeals and thence, if need be, to the United States Supreme Court. It espe- elally protects them from injury by the revela- tion of their trade secrets to their competitors. On the other hand, it makes the findings of the commission, as to facts supported by test!- mony, conclusive. Appeals from the commission to the courts can be made only on differences of opinion as to the law. And it subjects all such business to absolute Governmental control, under penalties sufficiently severe to limit temptation to law-breaking for profit. Herewith is a digest of the provisions of the bill: Sec. 1, 2, 3, and 4. Organization of Commission, Definition of Terms, Ete. The commigsion is t° be of five members, appointed by the President, each to draw $10,000 a year salary, and a secre- tary at $5000. Terms of office of the first five commissioners will be 8, 4, 6, 6 and 7 years. One man will retire or be reappointed each year after the third year, and thereafter all ap- pointmerts will be for seven-year terms. Com- missioners must give their whole time to the work and any member will be subject to re- moval by the President for neglect, inefficiency or malfeasance. The commission will absorb the duties and working staff of the Bureau of Corporations Sec. 6. Method of Restraining Untatr’ Com peti- tion. “That unfair methods of competition in business are hereby declared unlawful. The commission is hereby empowered and directed to prevent persons, partnerships or corpora- tions, except banks, and (except) common car- riers subject to the acts to regulate commerce, from using unfair methods of competition in business.” When the commission believes un- fair competition is being practiced hurtful to the public interest, it “shall issue” to the of- fender a notice to attend a hearing on the sub- ject 30 days later. Finding the offender guilty, the commission will order him to quit the un- fair practice. Should he fail to obey, the com- mission may “apply to the Circuit Court of Appeals of the United States, within any cir- cuit where the method of competition in ques- tion was used, or where such person, partner- ship or corporation resides or carries on busi- ness, for the enforcement of its order, and shall certify and file with its application a transcript of the entire record in the proceed- ing, including all the testimony taken and the report and order of the commission.” Vhe offender can appes) from the commis- sion’s order to the same court, and thence to the United States Supreme Court, but only on issues of law. The act expressly provides that the findings of the commission as to facts, if supported by testimony, shall be conclusive.” ‘The Court of Appeals can “affirm, set aside or medify the erder of the commission.” This power to enforce, set aside or modify orders of the commission is vested exclusively in the Ceurt of Appeals, - . The Court is required by the act to give such proceedings “precedence over other cases pend- ing” and in every way to expedite them. “No order of the commission or the judgment of the Court to enforce same ghall absolve any per- son, partnership or corporation from any lia- bility under the anti-trust acts.” Sec. 6. Other Duties of the Commission. Author- izing the commission to “gather and compile information concerning, and to investigate from time to time the organzation, business, con- duct, practices and management of any corpo- ration engaged in commerce, excepting banks and common oarriers, and its relation to other corporations and to individuals, associations and partnerships;” To require corporations to filb with the commis- sion their regular and any desired special re- ports, “under oath or otherwise, as the com- mission shall prescribe;” To “prevent and restrain any yiolation of the anti-trust acts”’—where a final decree has been entered against a corporation in a suit under those acts, and to investigate the manner in which such decrees are being carried out, either on its own initiative or the request of the At- torney-General; To report such investigations to the President or either house of Congress, on request; To help the Attorney-General with recommenda- tions for the readjustment of convicted cor- porations, so that they may act in accordance with the anti-trust acts; To “make public from time to time such por- tions of the information obtained by it, ex- cept trade secrets and names of customers, as it shall deem expedient in the public interest,” te make annual and special reports to Con- gress and to provide for publication of its re- ports and decisions for public use and infor- mation; To “classify corporations and make rules and regulations for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this act;” Te “investigate trade conditions in and with port te. Congress thereon, with recommends- . tleas;” fee. 7. Requiring the commission tc act as*s Master in Ohanoery preparing decrees for the Attorney-General, when the courts find for plaintiffs in suits ef equity prosecuted under the anti-trust acts. Beco. & Requiring all ether departments and btu- reaus of the when d@irected by the President, to furnish the commission with facts in their possession relating te any cor- poration subject te this act. Sec. 9. Immunity for Witnesses. Giving the com- mission access to decymentary evidence of any corporation being Investigated or proceed- ed against; giving power to summon witnesses, etc. “No person,” it provides, “shall be excused from testifying or from producing documentary evidence before the commission on the ground that the testimony or evidence required of him may tend to criminate him or subject him to a penalty or forfeiture. But no natural per- son shall be prosecuted or subjected to any penalty or forfeiture for or on account of any transaction, matter or thing concerning which he may testify before the commission.” Sec. 10. Penalties Provided. Fixing a fine of less than $1000, nor mere than $5000, or im- _prisonment tor not more than one year, or both, as the penalty for refusing to testify before the commission or to furnish it with answers to any lawful inquiry it may propound, “upon conviction thereof by a court of competent ju- risdiction.” not Vixing the same penalties for “any person who | @hall wilfully make, or cause to be made, any false entry or statement of fact in any report required to be meade under this act, or who hall wilfully make, or cause to be made, any false entry in any account, record or memoran- dum kept by any ‘corporation subject to this act, or who shall wilfully neglect or fail to piers or cause to be made, full, true and ac- aS ere who shall wittehiy remove out of the jurisdioc- tion of the United States, or wilfully mutilate, alter or by any other means falsify any doo- umentary evidence of such corporation, or who shall wilfully refuse to submit to the commis- sion or any of its authorized agents, for the purpose of inspection and taking copies, any documentary evidence of such corpora- tion in his possession or within his control.” Fixing a fine of $100 a day for every day during which any corporation shall fail, after 30 dayw notice, te comply with any request of the com- mission for information of its affairs. Fixing * maximum fine of 85000 end maxtmam imprisonment ef one year for any officer or em- pleye of the commission “whe shall mak@é pub- Me any information obtained by the commis- slow without its authority, unless. directed by a court.” If the Congress will make the punishment for guilt personal, in the pending antitrust act, as it has done in the Federal Trade Commission bill, and inflict adequate punishment upon such personal guilt, it will remove a just cause of complaint against the antitrust bill in ite pres- ent form. ss & THE MAINE ELECTION. The most interesting and significant feature of the Maine election is the decrease of the Pro- gressive vote, with the division of the loss be tween the Republican and Democratic parties. The Progressive vote fell from 45,000 for Roosevelt two years ago to 18,000 for Gardiner, candidate for Governor. Curtis, Democratic candidate for Governor, received 10,000 more votes than Wilson for President and was elected. The Republican gubernatorial candidate gained 32,000 over the Taft vote. All of the Congressmen—three Republicans and one Democrat—were re-elected. No figures on their votes are available at this writing. But the success of the Democratic Congressman with the increased Democratic vote is an indication that the country will stand by the administra- tion. The Progressive vote has ceased to be a menace and has become merely an aid to the Democrats. FARMERS ON THE WARPATH. The National Farmers’ Union sent 2000 dele- gates from all the states to the union’s national convention in Fort Worth, Tex., early in Sep- tember. Northern grain farmers, $400,000,000 better off by reason of war prices, heartily indorsed the union’s demand made in behalf of the Southern cotton farmers, who stand to lose $400,000,000 or more because war has cut off markets for a large part of their crop. President Barrett of Georgia, under orders from the union, has gone to Washington to press the union’s demand that the Government either buy or loan on the 5,000,000-bale surplus, at 10 cents a pound, so as to prevent that surplus from fix- ing the price for the whole crop at the ruinous price of 5 or 6 cents. Several Congressmen have indorsed the union's > . gs poms. President Wilson has promised to give i+ careful consideration at once. Chairman Glaas of the House Banking and Currency Committee has called a meeting for Sept. 21 to hear the farmers’ arguments for direct governmental aid. Meantime, several Southern Senators are urg- ing that the Southern states shall buy up the surplus crop—which most of those states, if not all, are constitutionally forbidden to do; the Texas Legislature, in special session, has passed emer- gency warehouse legisiation and is now consid- ering Gov. Colquitt’s plan to create a great cen- tral State bank, with $50,000,000 to $70,000,000 eapital, to take over the $77,000,000 of United States emergency currency which is Texas’ share, and use it dealing directly with the farmers to save their prospective 4,500,000-bale crop from be- ing sacrificed at less than production cost. The cotton crisis will not be\disposed of by merely counseling the farmers to swallow their losses and look pleasant. They are on the war- path. + ¢¢—_______— BELGIUM AND ‘‘MILITARY NECESSITY.’’ It was the army that invaded France via Bel- gium that encountered the first serious reverse to the Germans. The present problem of the in- vaders would be far less complicated if Belgium had been left undisturbed. The world will see a measure of poetic justice in the fact that dis- asters began with this movement. The train of misfortunes that followed it is already a heavy one, and includes British participation in the war. In speculating on “what might have been,” Berlin can inventory many advantages which it would now enjoy if Belgian neutrality had been left inviolate. The invasion of the small but intrepid country was defended as justified by military necessity, | but the precise purpose of the treaty was to safe- guard it from military necessity. The treaty was of no value in time of peace.. The event shows that fts violation was so far from being 4 mili- tary necessity in this war as to be a cologsal military blunder. = = * CHILDREN’S WORE “PF MEROY. When the Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund ex- ceeds $4000, nearly all raised by the young peo- ple of St. Louis for the benefit of the sick ba- bies of the poor, it is time to congratulate these willing workers for their perseverance and pub- lic spirit. The summer has been long and torrid. Cooling showers were few and at long intervals. And yet the ratio of infant mortality, lower than in any other large city in the United States, was main- tained. When the year’s statistics are made up, it will be seen that the lives of many babies have been saved. : Up to date, the Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund is over $4400 That is a good showing, only exceeded twice in the 10 years the Fund has been in existence. But we are sure the boys and girls who have made it will go on with the work until] cold weather makes it easier for the mothers in the crowded districts to keep the babies in health.

Written for the Post-Dispatch by Clark McAdams, THE READERY WAR GUIDE. It is necessary for the reader to ret.l- ize that no such war as this was ever fought before, and that it is therefore much more @ifficult to follow the action than it usually is. However, we have simplified the matter until it is possible for anyone to follow the war with a very fair knowledge of what is going on. We first threw the geography away and cast the war maps through the window. Then we had the different armies con- test for those parts and pages of the pa- | per in which they usually fight. Thus, ' the armies in France fought on the front page every day; so instead of having them contest for places of vantage that none of us ever heard of, we let them fight for the front page. In the same | way the Russians and Austrians, who continually fight on the second page, are made to contend for that part of the paper, and so on back to those lesser and little. thought of incidents of the war which lodge wHere they will. While this knocked the map business higher than a kite, it was a plain duty we owed to our readers, and we have thus far performed it. That we have their gratitude we make no doubt. The geography of the war has been a sad mess from the beginning. Probably no- body has as yet correctly pronounced Vosges. Liege, though taken long ago by the Germans, ‘as not yet fallen cap- tive to Americans who are not quite sure how to pronounce it. We have observed that even people who have been in Liege do not know how to pronounce it, if one is to judge by the dictionary. True, the dictionary has never been in Liege, but it has heard of it, which ts more than some of us can say. However. The Weather Bird is back from another tour of the inside of the paper. He says the Germans, who have been chased off the front page, are entrenching on the second page, and that they will make their stand there, He thinks they will perish be- fore they will let the allles (drive them imte all parts of the paper, as the Austrians have been driven. The Weather Bird says a German has mere pride than that. When he goes to war, he goes to war; he doesn’t gO out to see how far he oan run bBe- tween editions. The Weather Bird says the war cry of the Austrians explains everything. It is “The last man back in the want ads is a goat!” We realize that the war is palling upon everybody, and are doing our best to give it variety. It 1s, though, a very difficult thing to do. The Japs, who are more or less picturesque, will do nothing but stand around on the fourth page and shoot now and then at the Germans in the box which we carry on that page. Everybody in the paper is saying that the Japanese are only playing politics, and that they are not fighting. We are disposed to belleve this. There isn’t a gun fired in that part of the paper once in two days. All the navies are @ great dis- appointment to us, too. They never fight. The situation seems a good deal like that in baseball, where the Phil- adelphia Athletics have it on every- body else so hard there is no con- test. The British navy is like that. It takes the interest out of the thing. If it were not for the land battles we wouldn't be selling enough papers to keep the street corners awake. Thoroughly to understand what Tur- key has done, let us take the case af Bereno BE. Payne. Turkey has just levied an import tax of 100 per cent upon all foreign goods. A country that will take that view of the tariff issue is all the heaven the senior author of the Payne-Aldrich bill would ask; but alas! Turkey has renounced all those treaties under which foreign residents in that country have enjoyed the right of ail Republicans are slain. | trial befere theiz ewnm embassies ingtead of being eubicatal to prejudice almost certain to deny them justice in courts of thé Turks. So Mr. Payne, as one who would no doubt hasten to Tur- key to avuil himself of such a tariff law, must perforce remain here and en- cure the hell of a low tariff and a Steady decline towards free trade. The Turk is unspeakable. PROSE POEM. Whe Democrats have taken Maine, and The battic while in doubt, but ended nicely it.

At a time when everyone else is out of luck and things go so awry with civilization, it is encouraging to read that the Guggenheims have struck a vein of gold in Alaska seven feet thick. The Guggenheims have prospected hard, and have endured for hope’s sake a great many hardships. They deserved ¥¥ il« Vfinally to find something, and if the vein of gold they nave struck, in addi- tion to being seven feet thick, is about seven miles long, we shall all rejoice in the assurance thet Providence still cares for the under dog, let come what will. treat is Alaska.

In one short month we witness the downfall of that great dealer in open seasons for jail birds, Gov. Blease of South Carolina, and thé resignation of the man who, with a Judge in Arkan- sas, so much desired the quashing of the Federal migratory bird law. The Fed- eral dird taw will remain om the stat- ute books and most states have made their laws conform with the Federe] rul- ing.

Frem the Chicago Tribune. The fact that only about 8 or 10 per cent of the registered woman voters attended the primaries in this city ap- pears to have surprised the politicians. But it has not surprised the leading and active women of the city. To them the expected happened in this case. There are too many rather than too few explanations of the failure of the great majority of the women to vote on Wednesday. The confusing and preposterous ballot, with its columns of obscure names, the leck of plain and definite moral or social issues; the utter insignificanee of so many of the candidates; the abserbing and over- shadowing interest of the great ‘war; the disinclination of women to empha-|, size their partisan affiliations: the ab- sence of opposition within the Pro- gressive and Socialist parties: the known fact that no special efforts had been made either by the machines or by the.civie and independent women’s organizations to bring out the femi- nine voter; the silence or palpable in- difference of influential leaders—al! these factors combined to keep thous- ands of women at home. To the hasty generalization that the women of Chicage and Illinois are not really interested in polities, that now that they have the vote they care Httie for it, few thoughtful persons will pay the slightest attention. The women are mobilized politically and have en- listed for the war. The equal suffrage campaigners in the states that are to decide thet question in November will have no difficulty in accounting their audiences fer the filincis women whe “didn’t.” WTLSow.

New York, where only one’s intimates have time for many social amenities; but we were much gayer, went out a great deal more and as time went on entertained more and more lavishly, until now, as spring was approaching, we were count- ed as among the gay though exclusive set living at the Terrace.

It t be designated as “‘the best .thing do under the circumstances.”” It is optnion—one that is logically shared @ number of minds working’ on that and that is really the basis of only our every-~-minute actions but law of the land. “Law is the. crystallization cf 5s epinion,”’ says Blackstone, the ‘legal authority.

Ens 2 Scarcity of Recruits Will Force Huggins to Make Trades This Winter. OWNERS BUY FEW MEN Club Had Prosperous Year, but Has Invested Little in New Material. Announcement from Cincinnati Monday to the effect that for the first. time in history, the National Commission would not meet Sept. 15 to hold the annual draft, means that the big lottery was held, as stated in the Post-Dispatch at the time, a week ago in Chicago. It was a tame draft this season and the clubs even at this date are loth o tell what players were won tn the raw, but it is known, though, that he Browns snared First Baseman uffman from Elmira, N. Y., a play- er who comes with a bang-up record the Cardinal it has beer rned from a reliable source, ac- qguired only two players, both pitch- 4 names not yet divulged. Two Infielders Bought. oe F So far this season the Cardinals have purchased or acquired other- wise, very few players. Shortstop Daringer from Peoria, Second Base- pen etzel of South Carolina and tcher Meadows, who affects glasses on the hurling hill, are the only pur- chased # my ers. The two pitchers won in the draft cannot be notables as the anor league talent was pretty well cked over before the drafting sea- on began. This means, therefore, that Huggins ill rely almost entirely on mid-win- er trades to strengthen his club for mext season. That the club needs further mrepgthening to be a pen- ant factor in 1915 is a self-evident act. A shortstop and an outfielder ost are indispensable. Jack Mil- er must be~returned to the initial mig ee be 9 Pag he belongs, while there’s an outside chance that Manager Hug- 5 : ns will retire. ty Winner Pays Big Here. It was thought that the Cardinals, because of their good showing this e¢eason, would snare all the available talent of prominence. It was substan- tially proved to the owners that a winner in St. Louls would yield big The 28,000 midweek crowd rofits. . “Phat. greeted the Giants established fact. But, evinced a so far, Mr. Britton has not willingness or desire to build up his pennant prospect, and unless Trader Huggins can go into the baseball marts this winter and acquire an outfielder and shortstop, besides holding such men as Perritt, Doak, Wingo and Dolan from _ the Feds, the Cards will be in no position next spring to lay claim;to the title. ere are a lot of folks disappointed ause of the club’s faflure to pick up more youngsters. Dunn to Lead Yanks? Thée fumor that Jack Dunn, man- ager and part owner of the Baltimore Internationals, would succeed Frank Q ack. You, Too, Matty? Philadelphians. ba No alibis protect the good pitchin name of Big Six, who was fairly shelled from the mound and forced to take refuge in the bomb proof, along with the benchwarmers. The wea ° ening of Mathewson is the hardes blow the New york team has felt. ESREAU is now the one winning pitcher the Giants own. His work recently has been little short of wonderful and he has time after time halted the advance of the enemy and saved the retreat of the Giants from becoming a rout. Should any- thin happen to ei 2 Jeff the club would slip down to fourth place. The club is 2% games behind and elipping. The Braves are the same margin in front and going at their best. Only the miracie that Matty, Demaree and Marquard round to their best form immediately and simultaneously ean rescue the Giants’ hopes. e + - Another War Problem.

ITCHER BENTLEY of the Wash- ington team was relieved of the swelling which had recently inflated his reputation, yesterday, when Bos- ton routed him. Bentley had startled the world by 6 gece. 18 innings al- lowing three of the games was against the Ath- letics, Amos Strunk gaining the only safe hit during the struggle. Boston shut out Bentley’s side, 3—0, yesterday, but the disgrace was rather against Washington’s support than against Bentley. He allowed six hits in eight innings, two of them accounting for one run. The other tal- lies were unearned. The “makings” may still be in this twirler. . ’ e Clear the Way—Ty’s Coming. OUR hits in four times at bat for Ty Cobb yesterdays Cobb was only 5 points out of first place last Wednesday and ought to show in the lead when the next unofficial aver- ages are printed this week. hey may give Eddie Collins the championship auto, but they wouldn't create any jealousy if they slipped another title car to Ty. oa . om to the National League race is the only conclusion, that can be drawn from the recent performances of the usually reliable Christy Mathew- ) son, who yesterday was driven from the hill by the heavy artillery of the] Te the Giants have permanently lost their grip on first place in ganization to deposit 10 cents.a week} others. used to defray surgical and medical, parently figures team harmony would be its and no runs. One| Chance Should Worry. ‘ RANK CHANCE is upholding the reputation bestowed on him by Charles Webb Murphy, when he canned the ‘‘peerless leader.’’ The human pho- nograph declared the Cubs became a great team in spite of Chance. The New York club hasn’t the same all-star makeup as the old model Cubs, so Chance stands out in bold relief as a managerial failure. He has spent a world of money ‘for Farrell, and he wants to invest still more. The Farrell money taps are closed—perhaps empty— so Chance is peeved. * * + Abandons $25,000 a Year. [*% fact, he is going’ to resign—with a $25,000 salary staring him in the face, too! For a salary of that magni- tude many of us would undertake to dig a Panama canal with our finger nails. Beside Chance, Manager Rickey of the Browns is not only game—he is a how!l- ing success. . * Trouble With the Cubs. | iho regarding the reported attempt to sign Jack Hendricks of the Indianapolis Indians to manage the Cubs has arisen among fans, who won- der why, with three capable men at hand, the Chicago owners should go to the minor leagues for a team leader. Archer, Leach and Bresnahan are all experienced men of good heads. Bres- nahan is a proven manager of the Al division. The explanation seems to He in the doubts of the club owners as to friction that might result if any one of the three old heads was put in charge of the In other words, the management ap- better preserved if an outsider took charge of the club.

There is friction between the management and the manager, the club is a hopeless near-tailender and there is ahead of it all the trouble of select- ing and breaking in a new leader. Though Frank Farrell assures us that there is no trouble and that everything is pleasant once more, it is quite cer- tain that Frank Chance will not remain with the New York club. ‘It is my present inteution to g£0 West with the club tonight, theugh % did not want to,” he said, “and my future plans depend entirely upon what is done in regard to my resigna- | tion.

Groom pitched but an inning and a half of yesterday's game, but was caught on a off day and driven from the mount, Buffalo winning the first of the series, 12 to 3, Half the runs were made off Watson after Groom had been relieved. St. Louis just happened to strike Rus- sell Ford, Buffalo's star slabster, in their first clash.of the set, and were easily annihilated, the chief Buffalo flinger retiring after the fifth inning with a good lead for Brown, one of Schlafly’s recruits, to finish the game.

The truth is that baseball is more profitable than ever—for a new winner. The country is sick- ened to death of Alibi Ike mana- gers and owners and apologetic baseball; of monopolies, like the Athletics and Giants, and of per- petual losers. The best thing that has happened to baseball in'many years fis the race in the National League, which has that otherwise would have been nil. Had New York, like the Athletics, assumed a hopeless lead, as was ex- ected, FANS WOULD BE UTTERLY NDIFFERENT TO THE OUTCOME of both the league races and to the world’s series. McGraw wonders why the hand of every fan is apparently against him. It is NOT! But opposition IS strong to the per- petuation of any champiqn—es- pecially one that has no chance to win the world’s title. O’Toole May Cut In. EASE worrying, fans. O'Toole will “cut in” on the world’s series pie, should the Giants win. He arrived with the club just in time, according to date, to be declared in. But he need not worry about what he will do with his share. ~ . o Boece finished out fairly well for Matty. .He may possibly win an- other game for the Giants, if given a chance.

GIVES WARNING TO PUBLIC OF RAISING OF $1 BILLS United States District, Attorney Tells of Six Being Found Within Five Days. The discovery within the last five days of six $1 bills which had been raised to $ or $10 bills caused United States strict Attorney Oliver today to issue a warning to the public to ex- amine all paper money. There has been no secret service op- erative in St. Louis for six weeks, but Oliver today informed the operative stationed in Kansas City of the ap- pearance of the raised bills. The work is very poor, numerals having been cut from Confederate money and pasted over the numerals on the $1 bills. They are then blackened with ink. , One of the bills was received in change at a 5 and 10 cent store by the Rev. Herman Wagner of Meta, Mo. s¢€ reported it to the police, who found the girl who had received the bills. She said it was given her by a tall, well dressed woman.

Republican Senators determined today to fight war revenue measures in any form. ‘Chairman Underwood of the Ways and Means Committee, yielding to protests of Democrats againat the tax on freight, agreed to let the caucus tonight decide. The President, Un- derwood said, was not committed to a freight tax and would not ineist upon it, and neither would he, "0 added. “The caucus is my boss,” he vaid, “and I certainly shall not try to press any measure that the caucus does mot want.” Some Democrats, like the Republicana, are opposed to any war tax. The Republican \Senators appointed Senators Smoot, McCumber, Smith of Michigan, Weeks and Sterling to take charge of the opposition and notify ab- sentees to return at once, unless occu- pied with political campaigns. ‘ Batter Seoteh Cream Sticks, Ife La.

Nobody seemed to think of Mr. Jarr at all, although he was in his bare feet, sympathy being solely directed to- ward Mrs. Jarr and the children. Little Emma Jarr, who had been safe at old Mrs. Dusenberry’s all the time, was held up to be kissed, first by her mother and then by all the other ladies. as was also Master Willie Jarr, who was. sstill trussed in the piano cover, he being lugged forward by several of those non- descript strangers who are emotionally ’ sympathetic upon tragic occasions anid turn up the next day to show dispossess retices and impose a financial claim ‘upon your gratitude. Willie Jarr was not permitted to emerge from the piano cover except so far as his head was concerned, but, still enfolded in his silken panoply, was kissed and embraced. Strong men wept, small and envious boys whistled eS a on their fingers and yelled at each oth- - er: “Hey, Izzy Slavinsky, will it be in ' de movies?” and “Hi, Gussie Bepler! - betcha Willie Jarr kin lick ya now!” Ir was all uncommonly splendid. a Meanwhile it had at last dawned upon - an efficient Fire and Police Department "that there was no fire, and they sul- lerly gathered up their implements and wnlimbered their apparatus with an air - that boded no good if they could “find - the guy responsible." They rather in. timated that Mr. Jarr was the guy responsible, _ ‘The populace now, so variable is the - mob, noted that Mr. Jarr was in his bere and tango-swollen feet and began \, te hoot him. A policeman, voicing the hostile senti- ments of all, came over and ordered i'r, Jarr to get out of there, as he was ' eausing a crowd to Collect. . Meanwhile Mrs, Stryver and Mrs. Mud- | ridge-Smith were pressing their claims | t» proffering Mrs. Jarr the hospitality _ pf their homes tn the calamitous hour. | “As soon as I knew you were in peril, | wy dear,” remarked Mrs, Stryver, “I | wld my maid to get out blankets and | £. hot-water botties.” "Why do you want blankets and hot- iter botties this weather, and esxpe- uliy after « fire?” asked the surprised | War Is H--!
