By ASSOCIATED PRESS CHALONS-SUR-MARNE, via Paris, Sept. 21.—-The Germans continued bombarding the principal buildings of Rheims last night. BORDEAUX, Sept. 21.—-The French Foreign Office today forwarded to neutral governments a protest against the German bombardment of the cathedral of Rheims in the following terms: “Without being able to invoke even the appearance of military necessity, and for the mere pleasure of destruction, German troops have subjected the cathedral of Rheims to a systematic and furious bombard- ment. At this hour the famous basilica is but a heap of ruins. “It is the duty of the Government of the republic to denounce to universal indignation this revolting act of vandalism, which, in giving over to the flames this sanctuary of history, deprives humanity of an incomparable portion of its historic patrimony.” Germans Regret, but the French Fire Came That Way BERLIN, Sept. 21, 1:60 p. m., Via London, 4:05 a. m. N the official statement, issued early today, the German War Office said: “Rheims was in the battle line of the French and the Germans were obliged to bombard it. We regret the necessity, but the fire of the French came from that di- rection. Orders have been issued to save the cathedral. Great Church ‘Target fer Germas | Says London Paper. LONDON, Sept. 2imThe Rheims cor- respow4ent of the Daily Mail sends this story ef the damages wrought in the cathedral there: “The magnificent cathedral of Rheims, which was a national monument of uni- | versal fame, is now no more than an empty shell of charred and blackened walls. It is not yet known to what extent its stonework has been weakened by the flames or whether jt can be later restored, but it will neifr be what it was before. “The fire started between 4 and 5 o'clock Saturday afternoon. All day large shells had been crashing into the town. by German artillery fire, according to an announcement made today by M. Louls Malvy, Minister of the Interior. Other structures, which, official re- ports stated, were partially or complete- ly destroyed, were the Archbishop's pal- ace, the Church of. St. Jacques and the city hall. The bombardment of Rheims was be- gun Friday, according to reports reach- ing Bordeaux tonight. The great siege guns of the Germans, firing from six miles to the north, found the range andj soon began to pour in shells with deadly effect. At last reports, much of the city was in flames and its population was in flight toward the southwest. It is Geclared that 400 inhabitants were killeu by the German artillery. The ministry declared that the de- struction of the buildings indicate that the Germans considered their situation desperate. The following editorial from the Ger- man paper, the Frankfurter Gazette, published Sept. 8, is quoted: ‘‘Let ug respect the French cathedrals, especially the Cathedral of Rheims, which is one of the most magnificent basilicas of the Middle Ages, and is par- Rulldings Take Fire. “& whole quarter of the city, several hundred yards square, had taken fire, and street after street was lined with blezing houses and shops.

The feefings of those of the inhabitants that remained may be im- agined when, on the morning of Sept. 4, the Germans reappeared, and, over- taking the French rear guard in the hilly and thickly wooded district to the south of Epernay and Pierry and Brugny, opened fire. A running fight followed, without great effect except that several farms and country houses were destroyed. During that afternoon a larger body of Germans who had crossed the Marne at Reuil, eight miles west of Epernay, marched on the town by the Paris road. Save Wine Cellars. Some leading citizens went out to treat for the safety of the town, no duubt having in mind what a general sack-of the world-famous wine cellars would mean. The commandant was brought to the Mayor and at once de- manded supplies of tobacco and cham- pagne for his troops, and 40,000 rations This was impossible, and a curious bargain was struck. The cost of the supplies demanded was estimated at 180,255 francs ($37,001). This sum in gold Was paid over by the Mayor and five municipal councillors. One of them, the editor of the Reveille de Marne, told me the story. Hostages were held, but the chief wine maker, M. Chandon, happéned to have a German General billeted upon him, and complained to him of the unfairness of the exaction. Another influence wage even more valuable.

Three hours after the Germans had passed the river a body of French chasseurs entered Eper- nay and they were speedily followed by cavalry and infantry regiments. The inhabitants cheéred them loudly. and brought branches of flowers to show their delight. In a short time a bridg» was thrown over the river and fighting on the road to Rheims began.

The correspondent of the Times near Soissons, continuing his story of the operations on the Aisne after the a)- Hes had successfully crossed the river, says: “Tuesday, Sept. 15, a severe attack was made by the enemy, who evidentiy had been reinforced, and was deter- mined if possible to break through the allied lines between Vic-sur-Aisne and Soissons, that is, between the British and French forces. “This attack was heralded by a tre- mendous outburst of heavy artillery fire followed by a systematic advance of infantry and machine guns.

Here, evi- dently, the Austrians had prepared to cross the Vistula River. “The seizure of Krsheshov, which is the point where the Austrians would have crossed the river, is of great im- portance. Krsheshov is a small on the San River between Jarosliau an: the confluence of the San and the Vis- tula.

(Copyright. 1914. by Press Pub. Co.) PETROGRAD, Sept. 21.—An authorized spokesman of the Russian Government in an interview with the Post-Dispate! correspondent here declared yesterday that it “‘might be desirable” after the cessation of this war to follow the Emperor's plans for world peace as ex. pressed in the calling of The Hague con- ference, by establishing the ‘United States of Wurope,” an organization which would have the power to control armaments. There was no indication, however, in the speaker's words that there was any near chance of peace. There is an immutable, determination the Russian Government’s spokesman said, that the present allies maintain their alliance, and after peace is re- stored should agree upon such terms that would prevent Germany from ever again becoming an arsenal of explosives, threatening European civilization. LIBEL SUIT £DISMISSED Demurrer Sustained in Fight of Rival Musicians’ Unions. Circuit Judge Grimm today sustuined a demurrer filed by the defendants in the $40,000 libel suit of Fred W.

The plaintiffs, who are members of a vival organization of musicians, known as the American International Musica! and Theatrieal Union, Local No. 2, al- leged that the defendants had caused a circular to be issued setting forth that the plaintiffs’ organization was on the “We don’t patronize list’ of the Central Trades and Labor Union. The demur- rer of the defendants contended that the plaintiffs did net have the legal right to sue and that the petition did not state a cause Of aetion. FKeth of these conten- tions were upheld by the Court. ANOTHER TYPHOID CASE Man Taken to City Hospital: Four Patients~ Discharged.

German’s Heavy Guns Superiors The Germans. he says, have a number O. their hea howitzer guns placed in naitiienn from which they can shell the ailied lines at a distance of {rcm seven .o eight miles. No big guna the allies have can shoot effeetively, at such a range, consequently it jg_i pessible to reply to this fire until Germans approach within rafige of the British or French artillery. Thesgetrow- itzers have inflicted great dam to the allies, but the field guns of the ja ter have proved, he says, far sul t» those of the Germans. I Much fighting has osmusvet. ais night, the Germans making many fierce ate tacks under cover of darkriess, but they have not achieved any great success in any of these attacks and in somééof them the consequences to the German troops involved have been di 6. The frontal attacks made by the British and French in reply have been marked by great coolness and gallantry, tioaigh. undertaken under most difficult condl- tions. Both the allies and the Germang are still full of fight, despite the bad weéeth- er and the lack of rest. Many of.the soldiers, the Standard man says, have not had more than one hour's si a mght and the Germans are a aiming to achieve by the physteal accomplish in the actual fighting.

On the other hand, the extremely bad weather, making roany of the roads almost irapassable, especially those east and north of tha Aisne, has seriously int with the col responding length of the munication.

The German funds are very massive and highly ornate, often engraved ajgng «| ~ the barrel with laurel and oak leaf lands, surrounding some characte German motto, such as “Deutséhland Ueber Alles.” This one. facetious French- ~ man altered with a chisel “Deutsehland Unter Allies.” Essential parts of the firing or breech mechanism had been removed from all these guns before they fell into the hands of the al- lies. Many officers’ sabers have been captured also, and they have excited attention owing to their elaborate hilts and tassels depending therefrom. But their blades are not equal to the French or British swords, it is declared, as they do bend easily, and when bent do not revert to their proper shape, showing an inferior quality of steel. Trophies of 1870 Seld. The desire among the habitues of the boulevards to possess themselves of these small trophies of the war, such as awords, helmets, caps etc., led to as amusing incident a couple of days ago, — the correspondent writes. The police followed a man who, with a mysterious air, was circulating among the cafes, telling how, owing to private Influences, he had been able to witness certain bat- tles and had picked up many ing relics on the battlefielé was disposing of at prices thathnetted him a good profit.

Here, however, is where the nitrinsic merit of the offering receives ‘s final validating stamp. May de Sousa is admirable in its title role and ie heads an organization of players, ‘ingers and dancers distinctly above the LvVerage. Then, too, the reinforcing strength of . big and thoroughly competent orchas- ra, among whose members Frederick lischer and certain others of our own =ymphony instrumentalists loomed up in the best of moods, also must be noted. bert’s providing was delightfully inter- preted, the orchestra work being more than once the star feature of the per- formance. Ably seconding the opera-bouffe sparkle of May de Sousa’s singing and playing of the part of Celia Gill. a roguish moving-picture star who en- traps Josiah Clutterbuck, an artifictal- food millionaire, into a position where he can not longer sanction or finance his wife's crusade agdinst the ‘‘movie vice,”’ is the low-comedy work of Har- ry D. Ward in the Clutterbuck role. which he makes richly diverting and steadily cumulative in its laugh-pro- voking quality. Well abreast of these two is the stut- tering Billy Hilton, moving-picture di- rector, of Frank Crumit’s shrewd pre- senting, a role that at times takes first place in the amused liking of the audi- ence, especially when Mri Crumit sings “Girls, Run Along,” in the second act. The Crumit “hit” is very pronounced indeed, and is based on sound fun well brought out. A number of other well played and well sung parts add to the value of the performance. Among them are the Croker, old-school comedian blighted by the ‘‘movies,’’ of Charles Mitchell's depicting; the Mrs, Clutterbuck of Hel- en Roi Raymond, the gracefully danc- ing Anne Clutterbuck of Stella Hoban, the voung Baron Victor de Gardennes, “movie’’ leading man, of § Barrett Greenwood, and the Bobby Lopp, scion of an old New England family, in love with Anne, of John Estevan. These several principals are congeniallty cast and they help to keep the story mov- ing in the snappiest spirit. So, too, is the big chorus unusually animated and alert for the general en- tertainment, but there are one or two de@mcing numbers in which nothing worthy is gained by the overly generous exposure of feminine figures. Song hits are plentiful, and the Brazilian maxixe danced by Stella Hoban and Barrett Greenwood in the first act {s notable for grace and charm. The instrumental and vocal beauties of *the score were effectively empha- sized by the conductorship of Musical Director Al. Ellis. The scenic setting of the three acts, showing an hall in a great hotel, the drawing-room of Celia Gill's reaidence and the exte- ter, are attractively picturesque. by the knowledge and experience > others are wisest—‘‘canniest.” asa the Scotch say.

Te the Bditer of the Post-Dispatch. I would like to give a word of encouragement te “A Discouraged Unfit.” Remember, my dear friend, that “it is always darkest just before @awn.” Nail on your masthead the motto, ‘‘Never say die.” You will then not have to leave this good old earth for a long time to come yet. The writer had to struggle through a jungle of op- pression and knows just how you feel. TI, too, came near plunging into the abyss of suicide. Just what it was that dragged me back when my feet were slipping out from under me, I do not ezectiy know. My ‘‘good angel” was surely not far away on the three ocasions when I attempted to kill myself. I am convinced that it was noth- ing but my wiTl te live and to triumph over ob- stacles which saved me from a suicide's grave. Haven't you probably-been reading too much? People who read a great deal and do not mingle with the world, often become pessimistic, losing faith in mankind and God. I, too, know how this feels as I was at one time atheistic. That's what the trouble is with many who turn self-murderers, Permit me to suggest that if you will devote as much ttme to thinking yourself out of the present eituation as you have been doing in reading books, you will soon find a way to change things for the better. . You have no right to take your life, no matter if some matertalistic writers and “philosophers of pessimism” do say so. Brace up, brother! Think of your noble mother: of her feelings if you should shake off this mortal eoil] by your own hand. It would surely sadden her declining years. Besides it would not alter your mental state, but would really make it worse in the future life. Ne man is down and out unless he himself thinks #0, and then he is only down because he thinks it must be so. It is up to you to change it. There is a place for you in the world—"go fcrth and find it.” There is work which we all want you to @o for us—seek it out. We want you to stay here. Don’t go. It will make the whole town sad. 0. 8. CARR, 219 North Fourteenth street. DAILY 9 nm wmeecronmen | Cars for Cold Weather. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I would suggest that the United Railways he- gin to put in the windows on the Natural Bridge ears now while the weather is pleasant. If Capt.

While Wast this summer I noticed in many cities thie excellent idea: A neat, but prominent sign, on an iron standard by the curb, gives this warning to automobile drivers: SCHOOL HOUsSP®T 100 yards ahead of you I believe it would be a good idea to display similar signs in St. Louis. Also I noticed, out in the country, other signs which said: “Sharp turn to the right 100 yards ahead. Slow down!” “Steen hill Just ahead. Slow down.” “Railroad crossing just ahead. Slow down,” All sorts of necessary warnings are liberally posted. BAY STATE. ~ Union Labor on Free Bridge. To the EBditer ef the Post-Dispatch. If I were an expert bridge builder, owned my own home and paid taxes on @, and the city of St. Leuts dectded that only “s10n labor could be used @ complete the free bridge, what redress could I nave, if, being a non-union worker I was turned down when I applied for a job? Could I maintain, when the tax collector called, that the city could not look to me for my pro-rata because public policy kept me from the very em- ployment that enabled me to pay as assessed” What's the answer? FREE BRIDGE. Answer to ‘‘A Oripple’s Appeal.’’ To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The article in Thureday evening’s Post-Dispatch from “A Disceuraged Unfit" has caused me to send him some hepe. In his article he says that life is good, but he should have written it “Life ie God.” and things equal to the same thing are equal to each other; hence “Life is God.” And God never dies. God fills all space; so does good, ao does life, henee there can be no place for sin. sickness nor evil of any kind. Please read “Science and Health,” by Mary Baker Fady, with Bible.

The Clayton anti-trust bill, revised in joint con- ference of the tWo branches of Congress, is re- ported almost ready to be put on passage. A few changes have been agreed upon in conference. The Senate is not to be allowed to go so far as it wished in mutilating the House bill. The House and the President will not get all they desired in the final draft. Prohibition of price discrim- ination, which the Senate struck from the House bill, has been restored. Thus the measure, with this exception, remains substantially as it was when the Post-Dispatch editorially reviewed it at length on Thursday, Sept. 10. It is not likely many or important thanges will be made in it between this date and the day it goes to the President. Particulars in which the bill fulfills pledges given by the Democratic party are: 1. Limiting the power of Federal Judges in respect to labor injunctions. 2. Making it a felony for officials of com- mon carriers to embezzie or misapply funds in their charge. 8. Authorising Federal Courts to appoint receivers for corporations convicted of anti- trust law violations, and to sell or otherwise dispose of their properties so as to assure actual competition thereafter. 4. Prohibiting price discrimination as a means of crushing competitors and creating a monopoly. All of the foregoing items undoubtedly repre- sent a popular as well as a platform demand. They are sufficient to guarantee the passage of the bill and its favorable reception by the country, despite its not less conspicuous faults of omission. Among the latter may be cited: 1. Ite fafiure to assure prison terms for con- viceted monopolists. Under the Clayton act, as heretofore, convicted monopolists will pre- sumably be punished on conviction only by a 85000 fine, which they can, as heretofore, re- assess on the people in higher prices for their products. It may he taken for granted that no Federal Judge will exercise his option to send a convicted trust magnate to prison until the people make !t mandatory. Guflt in such cases has been “persona.” since 1890, under the Sherman law. It is only the punish- ment for guilt which has not been personal; and {t was perhaps the most emphatic promise of the Democratic party, in 1912, with respect to the trusts, that it wonld, if given power, ‘provide a punishment for convicted monopo- fists which they could not pass along to the people.” This the Clayton bill, as it stands and as it seems likely to pass, emphatically does not do. It does not, on this head, ad- vance an inch beyond the Sherman law of 1890. 2. Its failure to prohibit, {tm dovwnrig"t terms, the holding company, that handiest tool im monopoly’s toolbox. 8. Ite virtual exemption of common car- riers from the rule prohibiting interlocking directorates. 4. Ite failure to prohibit stock and bond watering. 5. Its weak and ineffective pretense of prohibiting those contracts by which officials of common carriers and other great corpora- tions have notoriously, in the past, evriched themselves unjustly at the expense of their stockholders. In brief, much has been gained; much remains to be gained. Word comes from Washington that it is the administration’s purpose to take up the problem of stock watering at the December ses- sion. At the same time, if it be now too late to cure the Clayton bill’s gravest defect, the Con- gress should without fail fix the punishment of a convicted monopolist at not less than two nor more than five years in prison. Because, as Judge John M. Duncan of San Antonio, whose sharp criticisms of the pending bill were quoted at length by Senator Reed a few days ago, said: ‘*The only things now left in this country which trust conspirators fear are a trial by jury and a term in prison.’’ On Aug. 17, editorially denouncing the Senate for weakening the House bill, the Post-Dispatch said: ‘Missouri will be glad to hear from her famous trust-hating champion of the people on this prop- osition. Speak up, Mr. Reed, your home folks are listening.” Senator Reed spoke up to such good purpose that he chiefly is entitled to credit for that sec- tion of the bill authorizing appointment of re- ceivers for law-breaking trusts. Under that sec- tion it will be much easier than it has been for the Government actually to dissolve trusts which defy the law, and to enforce genuinely competitive relations between their dissevered constiuent com- panies. The specific fault for which the Post-Dispatch criticised the Senate on Aug. 17 was the elimina- tion of the clause enabling trust victims to use Government testimony, taken in obtaining trust convictions, in suits for threefold reparation. That clause has been restored to the bill. a wr N MR. DEPEW’S SAPE CONDUOT Chauncey M. Depew’s mutton chop whiskers saved him from vast annoyance while he was a war refugee in France. Instead of being taken for a spy, he was taken for an Englishman. The French everywhere cheered Chauncey and those whiskers and speeded him on his way as one of “our dear allies.” Kighty years of shameful reproach and ig- nominy in order that one’s whiskers may serve as « safe conduct during a war that might never uve come and in a country in which one might Was it worth while? = = * _— SOCIALIST POLICY ON WAR. The European Socialists, who, in Austria alone, have a million and a half voters and in the other European countries enough to make a total of about 9,000,000, all pledged by their principles to abolish war, were to have held an international convention whose purpose was to call a general strike with the object of putting a stop to the threatened war between the Great Powers. The convention now appears to have been rendered impossible by the outbreak of war. There would have been much hope of success in the outcome of such a convention, if it were not for the fact that the Socialist parliamentar- lans in the various countries involved have, in the past, made the mistake of fostering militarism under the mistaken idea that vast military estab- lishments would hasten the day when Socialism will triumph. According to Yves Guyot, former French Min- | iaiceeiteh tats Saag aia silicate REC RETOE GIA 55 5 om ee ROE os a eS oF Tt Fee ae ee eae 5 : segs Peg. as 5 x : OP iF ey, ig et sine ae it acd Se Ae 5 ge ape a er, : ae Ray be explained. sale markets for cotton fabrics in the world. is located most favorably with reference to the cotton-growing sections of the South. That the likely to result in at least some loss? development from. the would be a “build-a-mill” movement. ister of Public Works and well known economist, the German Socialist leaders have been in the habit of enthusiastically supporting fiscal meas- ures involving vast augmentation of armaments. In France and other countries, Socialist leaders have adopted the same policy. They look upon it as a means of confiscating fortunes and as a series of steps towards collectivism. Having pursued this policy—having given their aid in creating a Frankenstein that in the end must cripple the state, it is too late to try to tie the hands of the monster and render him helpless. The history of the human race in the past and the developments of the few weeks since war became a menace ought to show them their mistake. Their peace propaganda has been frustrated by their illogical support of militarism. hi, Lh an ~~ = PIRST AID TO INJURED TRADE. It is gratifying to learn from high authority in Washington that if the Government goes into the shipping business to meet the pressing de- d for o¢ean transportation for American products it will buy the best ships possible, regardless of whether they are owned by Ger- mans, French English, and will seek ship- ments to and from all nations. This assurance puts an end to reports of the intention of the Government to refrain from buying merchant ships which have been flying the flags of belligerents for fear of violating neutrality or of offending opposing nations and that it would refrain from shipping to mar- kets where the need may be greatest, because opposing belligerents do not want the necessities of their foes supplied. The Government of the United States has a right to buy ships wherever they are offered for sale and to ship goods not contraband of war wherever it is possible to ship them. A port cannot be blockaded by proclamation or protest, much less a nation. If an attempt is made to add to the horrors of devastation and battle slaughter, which mark the present war, the Savage cruelty of wholesale starvation the is- sue should be met at once by the one great na- tion which retains its sanity. Let us make it clear that we do not believe in visiting death upon millions of innocent and helpless noncom- batants who have nothing to do with war and cannot control it. There is no cause for offense in this stand and no civilized nation can afford tc make it the cause of offense. The United States cannot go out of business because Europe is engaged in a mad war of destruction. It is our duty to minimize the effect of the war upon our own industry and commerce. In doing this we minimize the de- structive effects of the war upon other peoples with whom trade is still possible. The Govern- ment is in the best position to give prompt aid to injured commerce. It has ships that can be utilized for commercial transportation. It can buy more and use them untfl private enterprise in this direction gets upon its feet and is in position to take care of the business. The Gov- ernment merchant shipping bill should be passed. a. — SS THE ‘‘BUILD-A-MILL’’ MOVEMENT The suggestion that the establishment of a cotton mill in St. Louis should be one of the results of present conditions in the cotton mar- ket is logical and sound. St. Louis participants in the “buy-a-bale’ movement are urged to ac- cept the stock of such a company in amounts equal to the value of such purchases of cotton as they are now making to relieve the market. How this city escaped being the seat of an important textile industry can with difficulty It is one of the greatest whole It location here of one mill would be certain to demonstrate advantages so strikingly as to be followed by the establishment of other plants has been repeatedly pointed out. Why not obtain some gain from a situation A natural “buy-a-bale’’ movement a ss & — — a TRISH HOME RULE A LAW. The Irish home rule bill has been signed by King George and goes onto the statute books. While it was assumed months ago that the fight for it had been won, it happens that of all the critical stages which it survived, the most critica] was the final stage following compliance with the requirements prescribed for passage under the suspensory veto act Resistance through appeals to religious prej- udice in the North of Ireland was prompted by politics of a despicable sort, but was nevertheless most formidable. The crisis of the resignation of many army officera, including Gen. French, and the crisis resulting from the shooting of Dublin gun-runners, while Belfast's gun-runners went unpenalized, might have wrecked many another ministry. Premier Asquith’s admission in the House this week that coercion of Ulster was unthinkable shows the peril in which the measure wag in- volved, even after all parliamentary obstacles had been passed. Perceiving their advantage in en- couraging rebellion, the opposition would consent to no agreement for exempting Ulster. With neither exemption nor coercion, how would the bill have been put in effect? . Happily, this hurdle, like all others since the date when the upper House was reconstructed, has been surmounted. The operation of the bil] is postponed by a full year, after which must come a further period of delay while elections are held and the local Government set up. But this is of small consequence. The British Isles are now virtually under martial law and the civil author- ity subordinated to the military. With the Welsh disestablishment bill, as we} as the home rule bill, enacted, the great Libera) program of legislation, one of the most im. portant ever undertaken by any party under rep- resentative government, is practically completed. Will a votes-for-women bill be added as a fina) feature of the old program or the first feature of a new one? With the disappearance of intoler. ant local differences which has come with the war. it is reasonable to believe that the Liberal party will not be unmindful of its exceptional! oppor- tunity for according this measure of right and justice.

It is dangereus business to attempt any forecast of what will happen in the paper this week, but some assur- ance is, we think, necessary after the pillow fighting we had in the paper last week. It is our intention. to get the War over as soon as possible, and we shall therefore press it a little more than we have. If we must fight, it ovght not to be dragged out any longer than is necessary to establish by force of arms the complete justice of some- body’s cause. If the armies on the River Aiane do not engage in definite action today, we shall transfer that action back to our river column, where it is calm and quiet. We can always fight the Russians on the front page, others failing to fight up to the mark in that conspicuous position. We are not for the Russians particularly, but we like their disposition to get the war over as quickly as possible, and we wil! do anything we can to t them. Almost nothing definite Bappened on yesterday. The French and English went through the French center on ths first page for small gains, but thev were invariably held on downs.

At the rate both sides are heing reinforced, it is not easy to see how either side ever can whip Written for the Post-Dispatch by Clark McAdams. the other. The armies are too big to fight, and when they clash there is no more than a long series of incidental gains and reverses. Any one of these may be as big as the battle of Water- loo, and the result may be as decisive in that part of the line; but it does not materially affect the situation. I looked in yesterday’s paper as if peace might become compulsory for this rea- son. Little armies clean one anather up, but big armies cannot much hurt one another, apparently. At any rate, defeat is out of the question.

From Pearson's Weekly. The guns used by the French army are turned out by the hundreds at the famous Creusot works. The history of these works, as well known as those of Krupp in Germany, or Armstrong’s in England, reads like a romance. The first mention of Creusot, under the name of the ‘Villa de Crosot,’’ occurs as early as 1238. It was then a simple farm. It is now a town of 30,00 in- habitants. In the sixteenth century coal was dis- covered at Creusot, though it was not unt!l| 200 years later that a company was formed to mine it. Gradually iron works were erected there, and the man- ufacture of guns started. In 1838 the works were bought by the brothers Schnelder, and it is a signi- ficant fact that the German name of Schneider was to become the great rival of Krupp, the great German gun mak- ers. From that date down to the pres- ent time, the Creusot guns began to become famous, The great superiority of the French gun lies in ite stability, and in the fact that it will stand extreme hard wear. To show its wonderful stability it may be mentioned that a glass of water placed on the rim of the wheel of the gun remains unspfilled after the shot has been fired. This extraordinary feat, impossible in the case of most guns, has been made possible by the clever applicetion of * special recoll brake which Krupp al- ways declared could not be fitted to field artillery. It was adopted at the Creusot works, however, and that is one point where the French guns are superior to the Germans’. Another feature of the Creusot guns is what is known as the _ recuperator, which causes the gun to return to its firing position. The force used is com- pressed alr, posscesing the advantage over many of the Krupp guns, in which springs are used, that it never wears out or loses its ‘spring.’ Creusot guns were used in the Bal- kans, and army officers declared aft- erward that the guns were as good at the end of the campaign as before it. Only a short time before the German experts had criticised the famous gun as being too complicated and delicate for use in actual War. The accuracy of fire of these guns is simply marvelous. Once the angie is set the gun continues to belch forth death with unvarying aim. French officers, too, are so expert {n their use that they can split @ tree three miles away after a couple of shots to get the range. ‘sible. NC APPEAL FROM WAR’S DECI- SIONS. From the New York Sun. One of the most exasperating things about war is that, as it is a trial in the highest mundane court, there can be no appeal against its tncidental errors and aberrations. The protests of one belligerent that another is not fighting aceording to the rules is as vain and impotent as the prisoner's complaint that the case against him is not being conducted fairly. Some tmpression may be made on the minds of individuals, but counter pro- tests will generally influence an equal number, and the effects, anyway, will be controlled by antecedent bias. Thus the complaints are not only without practical results, but even fail to create a dominant public opin- ion. It is only in case of an overwhelm- ing victory that punitive measures can be taken for what may be called super- erogatory hardships inflicted by a bel- ligerent. In this age and with present methods of warfare, it is doubtful if either side would be apt to win such a sweeping victory as to make such measure pos- The only penalty to be dreaded by the rutheless ones is the verdict of so much of history as may be impartially written. BENEFIT OF COTTON FUTURES. From the Philadelphia Record. The South, for the most part, has been clamorous for the suppression of trad- ing in cotton futures for many years, but the Cotton and Cotton Oil News of Dallas, Tex., takes the same view that has been expressed in this paper, that the cotton, grower !s now suffering chiefly from the closing of the exchanges. It says: “Even a blind man can see that the closing of the exchanges an4 the elimination of speculators have closed the cotton markets and have put the cotton grower entirely at the mercy of a few spot buyers for the mills. The cotton grower is forced to accept any price offered him."’ Not quite; he can refuse to sell. But he needs the money and closing the exchanges hag driven off the multitude of buyers. That's pre- cisely what he has been clamoring for ond it is exactly that which is ruining him. “Even a blind man can see” that, but can the cotton growers of Texas and other states see it? OUR FOREIGN POPULATION, From the Philadelphia Inquirer. According to the statistics gathered 1n 1910 there were in this country 16,500,- 000 persons of foreign birth. As imml- gration has been unusually heavy since that time, it is estimated that there must be at the present time about 14- 000,000. Those with both parents foreign- born numbered over 21,000.00). and with one foreign-born parent an additional) 6,000,000. Thus over 36,000,000 out of 92,- 000,000 four years ago were either for- eign-born or had one or more parents born abroad. This is more than a third of the population, and the ratio is prob ably greater today. Noe Her Pte. From the Hartford Timep.

It had been one last-minute trips to New York to do some shopping, decided be- her a | present of a 50-doller bill which, with her bidding, ‘thrown a few clothes into her traveling the money she had already laid aside, was sufficient for her to make the jour- ney now instead of later as she had intended. The matter of the money which her husband had given her was merely one of the odd little surprises he was generally lavishing upon her, and she had stuck the bill with a pin into the pin-cushion and decided then and there not to postpone her trip any longer, and had begun packing immedi- ately.~ Settled at last, the hurry and excite- ment of the last hour seemed to fade to a mere nothing, and changed from a bit of annoyance memory. | the scenes to a rather pleasant Reminiscently she rehearsed in her mind. She remem- bered how flustered she had been, how she had ordered the how literally she had j bag, how she had taken a most hurried ; ™ minute snatched up 4 : S { ; : train, mother and two small W leave of her husband. She could re- member distinctly having at the last the 650-dollar bill from the pin cushion and thrusting it loose into her handbag. And now, after all the confusion and excitement and worry, here she was safe aboard the and apparently none the worse for the rush. ~ There were not many people in the car. Two middle-aged gentlemen sat three or four seats in front of her, heatdly discussing the war. Opposite was a rather young woman, oddly dressed, whose eyes seemed to wander restiessly through the car. Behind, a children were conversing tiresomely, the mother en- deavoring to answer patiently the ques- tions of a very talkative son. The Bill Was Gone! HEN the train started Mrs, Rockwell purchased a Magazin6 and-.passed an hour or two in in its perusal. Theh becoming thirsty she started down the aisle for the wa- ter cooler, and it was while drinking a glass of water that she remembered having left the handbag in the seat \jand she realized that this was a care- i 2 §there, less thing to do as it contained all her money. Hurrying back she saw with Some relief that the bag was still and sitting down, Mrs. Rock- -tiwell, obeying some strange sudden im- pulse opened the bag and looked in. | §The 50-dollar bill was not there!

She a@nced about her cautiously and found s he eyes of the oddly-dressed woman ‘= ; es ois 7 her; when Mrs. Rockwell looked her she immediately glanced away. Mrs. Rockwell was not a woman of ry decided character, and was rath- easily excited. She lacked the acu- en which enables one to act quickly, ia she lost muct time sitting rather edly gazing ahead of her. She was a loss what to do. There was noth- ig particularly suspicious in the atti- jes of those near her, yet the only per- on who could possibly have had the time nd the chance to look into her hand- ag was the woman across the aisle. ut Mrs. Rockwell did not relish the of accusing her openly, and had t decided to cal) the conductor and xplain the circumstances to him, when he lady across the aisle arose and went 9 the water cooler for a drink, leaving black handbag behind in her seat. éting on a strange swift impulse Mrs. ockwell took a long chance, the Regains the $50. P™ LANCING through the car she saw the woman with the two children was very busily engaged th them, and that the cw mom ahead maid about to do. By Wilson C. Missimer. were at the height of their argument. So she noiselessiy slipped across the aisle, picked up the handbag, snapped it open and there, thrust in hurriedly amongst a confusion of other things lay her 50-doliar bill. Mrs. Rockwell took it, returned to her seat, and calmly ueposited it in her own bag before the lady returned. The success of her impulsive plan did not surprise ber so much as did the extreme boldness of the other woman. She had heard and read of the hun- dred and one little robberies that oc- cur aboard trains, but she had always believed them with rather a shade of doubt. That an ordinarily good-look- ng young woman, whose wearing ap- parel, to say the worst of it, was of rather an odd selection, should be so daring as to actually try to com- mit robbery in the space of time required for one to pass down the aisle and take a drink of: water was indeed astounding. She could readily appreciate that it was merely because the time was so limited that the woman did not ransack the whole bag and strip pat of its moneyed contents. When the woman returned to her seat, she rather carelessly pushed her bag to one side and picked up a book which she had with her and began to read, leaving Mrs. Rockwell to wonder what kind of a criminal spe was. As she studied her, Mrs. Rockwell thought the woman had a hard face. There was nothing about it by which one could judge her age. The lack of the faintest trace of wrinkles might lead one to think she was young, but the lips were too thin and the eyes gazed about too calmly and too care- lessly for a person of inferior age. Her easy Manner too, gave one the suspicion that she had seen lots of the world, and that it would take a great deal to throw her off her guard. Yet there was something about the face that at- tracted Mrs. Rockwell, and she found herself at times almost pitying the poor creature, and even going so far as to sibly she was a victim of kleptomania. Her Act Was a Grave One. i} had committed, or the possible con- sequences of it should she be ap- prehended, did not once occur to Mrs. Rockwell. She was one of those women who move upon impulse and never stop to anticipate possible results, and it never occurred to her that if she had been caught in the act of going through the other’s hand bag her own story of having first been robbed would not have been credited by the conductor, and the other woman had only to tell a simple little lie to put Mrs. Rockwell in a very compromising position. However, she had not been detected: she had made a really lucky move, had recov- ered her $50 bill, and was inwardly con- gratulating herself that she had done a clever thing. And the rest of her journey was divided between patting herself on the back and watching the movements of this woman across the aisle. In New York the money went fast enough, but even with what she had saved it was quite inadequate to com- plete the list she had made out. How- ever, when one runs short of funds there is nothing to do but to return home or go somewhere where the funds can be replaced, and Mrs. Rockwell returned home. She telegraphed her husband, and he met her at the train. There was an odd little expression on his face when he kissed her, and a certain reserve in his voice when he asked what kind of a time she had had, both of which im- pressed Mrs. Rockwell as peculiar. “And about your shopping,’ he said, suddenly. “You didn’t do much, did you?’’ “Indeed I did,’’ Mrs. Rockwell replied. “You did!” her husband exclaimed rather wonderingly. “‘Why, what on?’ “Why, on the money I had saved, but rrincipally on the $50 you gave me, dear.”’ ¢ Rockwell stared aghast at her. ‘‘The $50 I gave you. Why, my dear, don’t you know that you forgot that $50 and left the bill pinned to your pin-cushion, where I found it the morning after you had gone?” HE gravity of the act she herself .

It seemed to occupy his mind as well as his time, and we had little time to discuss the market. He had not made up his loss, but had made a little on the last deal. Mil- dred was perfectly disgusted with the information I gave her, and made no attempt to conceal her chagrin. “I don’t see how Jack can buy mo- tors, if he doesn’t make more; have information that is worth more than you tell me!’’ she grumbled. “I do wish he would get something really good, and then let Ned carry enough for him to make it worth while!” “That would be lovely!’’ I enthused. “But ‘Jack gets no information since that Cc.

Mother and I] had been sewing for the children, and they were fairly well equipped. But I must have summer dresses, and all the dainty accessories that a fashion- able woman has in her trunks when she takes her vacation. I went to Loraine, told her where i was gvuing, and that I wanted some lin- gerie frocks and other things, leaving it to her to see that I had what was right for the place. Doing exactly as i should have done had my husband been independently wealthy, instead of beings, as he was, a broker's clerk. Motber insisted upon staying wita Jack, and it was really amusing to hear them plan of the good times they were going to have. Before I left home I cautioned Jack about letting me know of any informa- tion he received about stocks, reminding him of his promise. I tqld Mildred that I would either telephone or telegraph her. anything Jack might hear. “T don’t expect anything for a long time, Sue,” Jack replied, ‘‘the big m@n are all away. Cosgrove has gone to Europe."’ ‘Well, if they have, I should think you would know enough by this time io make something on your own initia- tive!’ forgetting I had found fault witna him for doing that very thing when he lost. “Perhaps I will,’’ was his answer. The inn was delightful, and I made many new acquaintances. Norah took entire care of the children, who were perfectly well, and who ip no way inter- fered with my pleasure. I was safisfiei with my wardrobe; that is, after I had wired Loraine to send me a sports coat. She had suggested it before I left; but thinking I had others that would an- swer I had refused. to take one i! hadn't been away two days, however, before I saw that she was right, and that it was the one thing I did need. “Jack Wanted Me Home.” ACK wrote once a week, mother J eftener. Jack had taken a “flyer,’’ as he expressed it, and lost. He wrote an anxious letter, saying that our capital was becoming depleted, and hint- ing that I should come home to stop expense—a hint to which I paid no at- tention, thinking that he, as always, was foolishly alarmed. Mother wrote that he was very nervous, but evidently she knew noth- ing of his losses. The garage was finished, and the runabout tn it. Jack had taken her out frequently and they were having a very pleasant time together. When I answered Jack's letter, I told him I should remain the month as we had planned. I had made en- gagements that would keep me there; and I also told him he would have to make my next check larger as I had to have many little extras that the regular hotel price didn't cover. Jack sent me the larger check as I requested, but said very little. Ned Rosebushes girl whose gift from the fairy eventually made her a princess.

The fairy wavel her wand a second time and there on the other side of the door was a bush of red roses. “And your third wish,’ said the fairy, “what is that?’ “I wish that bloom,’’ said Elsa. “It is granted,’’ said the fairy, and she waved her wand over the bushes three times. When the weather began to be cold Elsa thought her roses would. stop blooming, and one morning as she gath- ered them she said: ‘You beauties, I shall miss you when the frost and snow come.’ of my door,”’ asked they might always AVE you forgotten your wish?’ said a voice.

How much money do you want for them “Oh, I could not sell my rosebusnes,”’ Elsa replied; ‘‘indeed I could not. But I will pick you a bunch of their blos- s0ms.” “Do you get a big price for them?’ asked the young man. ‘You must sell them or you would be willing to sell the bushes to me.” PY H, no, sir,” Elsa replied, “I give them to the sick and the old people who cannot get out to enjoy the beautiful world.”’ “You give away roses that you might sell and become rich?” said the young man. ‘‘Why, how foolish you are. I am the King’s son. Come, sell me these bushes and I will give you any amount you ask.”’ “T will not sell my roses to the King himself,” replied Elsa. “You cannot buy them.’”’ The King’s’son rode away, and when he reached home he told his father: “She can do more than we can; for she reach- es the hearts of the people and she thinks more of making people happy than having gold for herself.” “Make her your wife if she will have you,” said the King. ‘There is not an- other in all my kingdom who is more worthy to be Queen and it will not be long before you are King; I am an old man.’”’ So the Prince went back to Elsa and asked her to marry him.

This was the final and* deciding event of a three-game series. The attendance at the first was 45,000, at the second 6,- 000 and at yesterday’s over 20,000 more. The figures of yesterday were made reasonably certain when check- ers with registers went through the crowd, previously subdivided § into sections in order to _ facilitate the count. Thus the total at this amateur game Was more than twice the attendance at any single world’s series game in his- tory. In this remarkable success of the Cleveland Amateur Baseball Association may be seen the em- bryo of a new “big league’, made up of material that may justly appeal to civic interest and pride. Chance for Home Talent. HE growth of municipal baseball in Cleveland, St. Louis and other cities, and the launching of the Nation- al Amateur Baseball Association cham- pionship this year ts sure to result, tn a short time, in the establishment of a national league, THE ELEMENTS OF WHICH WILL BE teams consist- ing strictly of home talent. St. Louis, for example, will not be made up of a pitcher from Kennebunk, Me., a catcher from San Diego, Cal., and a shortstop born on the Vistula River and recently outfitted with a suit of citizenship papers. Instead, men living in St. Louis, developed in this city and previously put through the fire of win- ning a local championship will repre- sent us and furnish a reasonable ground for enthusiasm and local pride. - Even Owners Not Local. T present the foundation of Diz league clubs is purely mercenary. The bat boy is usually the only “home talent’’ with the club. In some cases even the owners of the team and fran- chise are neither natives nor permanelrit residents of the cities-in which they own the club property. Can’t Hurt Professionalism. UT the “pro” magnates need not worry. THE BEST OF AMA- TEURISM WILL NEVER CROWD OUT PROFESSIONALISM, for the sim: ple reason that amateur baseball can- not be made a daily event and, further. could not supply the degree of excel- lence demanded by the baseball-going public. The amateur championship may rival the big league games, for a few Sun- days, during the play-off for the title. This will mean not more than eight games in each city of sufficient impor- tance to bother the attendance at big league contests. . > ° ’ * “Pro” Leagues Needed. 5 tegen glamour of the professional, with its daily struggle, and the world’s championship as a grand climax carn mever be displaced by any weekly amateur sessions. The only pity is that the profes- sional teams could not be made more nearly representative of the cities invelwed, in the make-up of their teams. Home Talent Too Weak. HE plan of building professjona! teams in the various cities made up of strictly home talent has been many times considered and always abandoned, for the reason that MOST OF THES REAL BIG LEAGUE TALENT ORIGI!I- NATES IN CITIES THAT HAVE Nw MAJOR LEAGUE REPRESENTATION. Thus a league made up of teams com- posed of purely home professiona! plav- ers would probably not average class A in strength, and would present man; inequalities in caliber of teams. = * » What Is Princeton’s Move ? i Princeton Tigers are to spring “something new" in fcotball. ac- cording to reports from the East: but what this “‘something’’ will be has been carefully veiled in accounts of the mat- ter.

Roger Peckinpaugh,-- the. peppery Shortstop of the Yankees, may inherit the managerial toga doffed by Frank Chance, if the Yankees continue to play the snappy ball they have shown since Chance withdrew. The New York club put up a smart game under Peckin- paush's direction yesterday and have blayed genuinely good ball since Pevk- inpaugh assumed command. The club is far from a joke. With such men as Maisel, Cree, Cook, Boone Mullen and Peckinpaugh it probably is the fleetest organization in the Amer- ican League. The infield is a great de- fensive machine, but the club lacks solid hitting strength. Withal the Yanks managed to win their first series a the temporary leader, beating the Ox, Cobb Rocketing to Top. It's positively a shame the way Ty Cobb treats his earnest competitors each fall. During the long, weary sea- son Ty coaxes Collins and Jackson along just to make the race interesting, but when the time comes to tighten up Tyrus cuts loose a burst of speed that kills off, all competition. He had six hits out of nine times up yesterday, a triple, two doubles and three singles, gaining consi.lerable ground on Collins, who got two out of four, and Jackson, who got one out of four. McGraw’s Squad Totals 50. Despite the fact that his forces out- number any other army in the League, John McGraw is having his troubles with the traditional jinx that pursues a teant seeking its fourth straight pen- nant. However, McGraw is equipped with enough talent to win, e’en though he isn’t. The New York squad now totals 30. with more recruits coming. Besides the regulars, with whom the fans are fa- miliar, McGraw has on his bench at the Polo Grounds these days the followinz: Pitchers Palmero, Verbout, Ritter, Kir- mayer, Erickson, Huenke, Cook and Royce; Infielders Holke, Brainerd, Beat- ty and Bues and Catcher Smith. Tne chances are that vou already know about Schupp, Schauer, Piez and Dyer. They have been around for some time. Yingling No Outfielder. Manager Herzog of the Reds, whoo seems to possess the best little tail-end- er in the National League, has given up hope of making an outfielder out of Earl Yingling, a southpaw. Yingling annuag!- ly ranks with the best batters in the League, so Herzog tried to convert hin: into a fly chaser. However, he couldn't judge the line drives, so he has been recalled to the bench.

O’Connor, This has been a vear of form revers- Western clubs carried the into the Eastern enemy's land, for the Oc- teams in the _ intersectional war. The Cardinal collapse probably the most startling. After winning en out of eight from Pittsburg Cincinnati, Hug’s team crossed Boston and started a losing streak a tie, 1—1, the Cards are doing no worse than which threatened a week ago to rally and possibly save Clarke’s record of go, then four with the Cardinals. Doak j never having finished in second divi- sion. The Pirates have lost five 1 is out for a new record of consecutive defeats, having put together 15 at this date. Means Pennant for Braves. This total collapse of the West prob- ably spells the pennant for Boston. New York has shown some improvement, and it was MecGraw's earnest hope to cut down Boston's lead by having the Braves beaten in aw occasiona: battle in the big series. However, the best the Giants could do last week was to gain one-half a game by beating the Reds, while the Cards deadlocked with the Braves in a 12-inning, 1—! affair. The schedule now favors Boston. New York has two more games with Chica- and Sallee are sure to cause trouble for the Giants. while Cheney may knock MecGraw's favorites over in té6- day’s game. On the other hand, Bos- ton will be picking on the cripples from Cincinnati and Pittsburg, and surely should enhance its pennant chances, es- pecially at the expense of the Reds. May Yet Pass Cubs. Hug’s team is making itself cornfort- able in fourth place, a berth the Cardi- nals should hold unless the present los- ing streak continues. There’s an out side chance that third place may be at- tained by winning four out of six games from the Cubs at the close of the season here, but the fall-down of the Cards in the Boston and Philadelphia series has done nothing to strengthen the belief that the club belongs any- where but at the bottom of the first division. The punch isn’t there. The pennant race promises to be de- cided in the last week of the season, when the Braves move to New York for five games, two double-headers. If McGraw can start this series with only two games separating him from first Right now the Braves are choice among the Hubtown is Boston's a 6-to-10 bettors. iecnmennemel Perritt Signs With Feds? One of Polly Perritt’s close friends in- formed the writer Sunday that Polly had signed with the Pittsburg Feds for two vears and would transfer his al- legiance to Reb Oakes’ team next spring. | ‘“T've seen the contract,” sald our in- formant, ‘‘so 1 ought to know. Polly gets a small bonus and a fat salary for jumping, and if Tl’'m not mistaken he has been signed with Pittsbu for more than a month. So far as I know hes the only Cardinal who has jumped, al- though Cozy Dolan and Ivey Wingo are wavering.” . The loss of Perritt will be a jolt te the Cards, but not a staggering biow. They can better afford to lose a pitcher than a catcher or outfielder, and the fans earnestly mg, that Sky Britton limits his loss to Perritt. Until better material is obtained the club cannot afford to lose even Cozy Dolan. 2 E. S. BROWN WINS BIKE RACE AT FAIRGROUND E. 8S.
