He delivered a consoliag lecture to the*pair and suggested as a compromise that the baby should be named “Dorothy.” This name § wouid comprise all the letters in ‘‘Dodo’”’ and not hamper the child with the prehts- toric bird’s terrific atmosphere.

The distribution of free diphtheria aa- titoxin by the city to rich and poor alike Was suggested by Health Commis- sioner Starkioff today. He said he would ask the Municipal Assembly for an appropriation of 33600 to cover the expense for the coming year. At present the city gives antitoxin only to those who certify théy are un- able to pay for it. The annual cost -f this has been about $600. Under the new plan, the city would nandle all of the antitoxin needed in St. Louis and would supply it.to all reported cases of diph- theria. Dr. Starkloff said he had investigated 35 recent fatal cases of diphtheria and had learned chat in only two of these cases was ‘the antitoxin administered promptly. Ig the other cases there were delays of from three to 10 days. In sev- eral of the cases only units of the antitoxin were administe , though arn effective amount is 600 units. The delay, he believes, was causeil in most of the cases by the poverty of the parents, and this also was the rea- son for the small'amvunt administered. Many persons, through pride, will not apply to the city for free antitoxin. This condition, he’ thinks, would oe eliminated if rich and poor alike were to receive antitoxin from the city with- out cost, Reports covering Saturday and Su.- day show that 52 new cases of diphthe- ria developed in St. Louis in 48 hours. This is less than the recent overage. ONLY ONE RAID MADE BY POLICE ON “LID” DUTY Bummelkasse Found in Several Places——Many Cross to Illi- nois for Sunday Drinks.

The shortage was in the accounts of J. Harry E Edwa chief clerk int the ‘office, and was repaid by Treasurer ede, 8 w out of his personal funds. The concealment of the shortage was a typical exploit ‘of | £ capital politicians, who, to save themselves from criticism while j recting that the records of the Treasurer’s office should contain fv —— | details of the shortage, exacted promises from all *those with knov edge of it, whom they could control, to keep it secret. .. . A record of the transaction was entered in the letter fi books of the office, in which an entry was made by Joh A. Le bookkeeper, at the direction of Treasurer Cowgill giving the dat o” the shortage. Edwards, who for many years was chief clerk 1 Secretary of State Sam B. Cook, was made chief clerk i in urer’s office when James Cowgill of Kansas City took office in January, 1909.

Employes called his attention to the fact that an excessive amount of cash was being carried, and advised that he personally count the cash. They told him that Edwards was the only person in the office who had access to the cash. Cowgill replied that he had trusted Edwards with millions of dollars and that he did not consider it necessary to personally examine the cash box, Early in January, 1913, there devel- oped a discrepancy of 80 In the State’s account with the Mississippi Valley Trust Co. in St. Louis. The State Treasurer's books showed that the deposit was $5090 more than the trust. company’s books showed it to be. In an attempt to straighten out the discrepancy Edwin P. Deal, who suc- ceeded Cowgill. as State Treasurer Jan. 1, 1913, wrote several letters to the trust company. He did not receive answers to them. Edwards received the office mall, and it was not until March, 1913, when a representative of the trust com- pany took to Jefferson City a letter file which contained copies of letters ad- dreased to Deal but not received by him, that the Treasurer discovered that the correspondence had failed to reach him.

A concrete base, upon which a biege gun could be mounted, girenty hag been found there. A German two years ago bought a tract of land on the Isl@ of Orleans and established there a plant for the manufacture of concrete blogks. It is upon this property that the concrete foundation has been found. It mmands the defenses of Quebec and of the St. Lawrence channel. t summer a moving picture com- pany, the leading officials of which were German, spent the summer on the Isle.of Orleans reproducing the battles of the plains of Abraham and making film of it. They employed several hun- dred young men of the vicinity, uni- formed them and provided them with armg which they borrowed from local military authorities. They had both cannon and rifles and fired a large amognt of blank ammunition in their opergtions. The arms which they bor- rowea were returned to the authorities, but it has been reported that they took ooaline of the opportunity to land gunstand secret them in pits, which were*carefully covered.

NEW YORK, Nov. %0.—“Undoubtedly thia is the most stupid, senseless and unnecessary war of modern times,”’ said Frederick Withelm, Crown Prince of Germany, in a remarkable interview with Karl H. von Wiegand, an Ameri- can newspaper correapondent, _ tele- graphed to this country today. War not wanted by Germany, I can as- sure you; but it was forced on us, and the fact that we were so effectually prepared to defend ourselves is now be- ing used as an argument to convince the world that we desired conflict.’’ This interview was sent from the headquarters of the Crown Prince's army in France, under date of Nov, 2, by courier to Namur, Aix-la-Chapelle and The Hague to London, and By cable to New York. Von Wiegand, who was in Berlin at the outbreak of the war and who has spent much time with the German afmies, was received cordially by the Crown Prince, who éxpressed the hope that the newspaper man would find plenty to interest him and that he “Tt is. should feel fre to «0 wherever he Iiked. The Crown Prince declared that the Germans, from the lowest to the highest, knew that they were fighting for their existence, and that ne power on earth would be able to conyince the German people that the conflict had not been en- gineered solely with a view to crushing all the German people hold dear. The Crown Prince seemed to hold England responsible for the war, but he showed rone of the intense hatred or Dittermue toward the English which ts encountered everywhere in Germany. The Crown Prince had been surprised, hé sald, that Americans, up to this time, — had not seen more clearly the position of Germany. He frankly admitted that Germany had falled to appreciate the important role played by the press in world politics and International affairs, and said Germany had learned a lesson in this respect. He had faith in the sense of justice of the American people, he declared, once the actual facts could be conveyed to them, GERMAN SQUADRON FROM PAGIFIG {3 IN SOUTH ATLANTIC Ports on Eastern Coast of South America Report Movement of Supply Ships.

Austrians Driven to Cracow. “In the Carpathians on Nov. 27 we took as many as 1200 Austrians. The troops of.the enemy have retired precipitately from Bukowina. We have occupied Czernowitz, “In the region of the Mazurian Lakes (East Prussian) and the An- gerap River our troops have thrown back the Germans in several dis- tricts to fortified positions.” A review of the military operations in the last week by both sides at the rear of Lodz, as given our semi-officially here, indicates that the German army under Gen. Mackenzen, has been cut in three parts. The right wing still is struggling 15 miles west, southwest of Lodz, in an at- tempt to unite with the column sent to its assistance from Wielun. The cen- ter is 10 milés northeast by north of Lodz and atill is engaged in a desperate effort to cut its way west to rejoin the left wing, which is partly cut off from the strongest position on the Vistula. This army, the review asserts, is mov- ing ‘back before Russian, onslaughts, but is stubborniy disputing the Russian ad- vance. In this quarter the Russian advance is from Gombin, 60 miles north of Lodz. It is estimated that the centers of the three parts of the German force are at least 20 miles apart and that the middle one is acting entirely on its own initia- tive, being completely isolated from the others. It is sald that the main bodies of the line of communications to the rear, ex- tending in semi-circular shape a distance of #@ miles. Russian experts declare this situation ie almost unprecedented in the history of warfare. In the opinion of these experts, the operations will not re- suit in the complete surrounding of the Gerthians, but they declare that the pur- pose of the German campaign against Warsaw has been entirely frustrated. The alleged failure of the German plan is attributed to what is termed a reck- less attempt to cut the Russian center line. During all the operations, Lodz is said to have been under attack more than once, but the only damage suffered was the burning of the electric power plant and the suburban railway station. This is rewarded as extraordinary in view of the desperate conflicts that daily have been raging on three sides and because tof the fact that Lodz projects like a jpromontory into the enemy’s territory. The Russian council of ministers has appropriated large sums for relief hos- pital work in the rear of the Caucasian army and for the support of families of school teachers, whose wage earners are at the front. mn {Berlin Announces Kaizer In With EKastern Army.

Above all else it is plain that the first great German design has failed ut- terly, irretrievably. Whatever is to happen now, it is plain that France is not to be de- stroyed. When the great war is com- pleted, France will retain her place as a great power—her army will continue a factor in European com- binations. Four months of furious fighting have settled this. In late August, in early September, a Sedan seemed possible. At the close of November, France has escaped any real disaster, and with British re- enforcements, has checked every German offensive in the West since the battle of the Marne. Europe dominated by the Kaiser is henceforth a thing inconceivable, so long as there remains in being the ‘Grand Alliance which has been formed by three great powers and two small states to face the Austro- German combination. In the mili- tary sense it is too early to talk of a conquered Germanhy, but it is no longer premature to assert that the vision of a conquering Germany has been laid to rest. Checks on Two Sides. As October opened, Russia claimed the center of the stage. German strategy had planned in the opening weeks of the war ‘to crush France, while Austria held Russia in check, and Britain was still gathering its unready hosts. But while ,Frdnce was defeating the Germans at the Marne, the Russian armies were beating down Austrian armies, carry- ing the war into East Prussia; and far into Galicia. From the battle of the Marne to the present hour the problem of the .Germans has been the same. Always .it was their design, their necessity, to hold back the Russians until they should crush the western allies, or at least so arrange their battle line in Belgium that they could turn east and deal with the.Czar. In thie they. have doubly failed. All the. enormous corcentration of men in the west hes not availed to ad- vance their front from the position to which it came Oct. 11.. All the desperate, terrible nghting along the Yser and the Lys has left them where they stood when, Antwerp fallen,. they began a new. drive for the channe) and France. Allies Gain Strength. In.this time, too, conditions in the West have changed wholly. Day by day come reports of the arrival of British reinforcements. France, too, ill prepared to equip the setond line ‘troops needed to meet the German asses, has, in part, remedied the de- ficiency.

All through November Russian arm- they crossed the Carpathians, again they occupied Czernowitz and swept Bukowina. Today Cracow, menaced from three sides, seerm® ~ .nere island in the oncoming Russian flood, while the Hungarian plain is open to Cos- sack raiders. November, too, saw one more des- perate, daring venture of German strategy to save Galicia to Austria. Once more a German force was driv- en eastward along the Vistula toward Warsaw, made progress, then came to a halt, is now in retreat. It is not necessary to accept any fraction of Russian rumor to perceive the sin- gle essential fact, which is that the latest German venture failed abso- lutely, since it: brought no relief to Galicia or East Prussian lands. More and more it is becoming clear that German resources, great as they are, German couragé and mili- tary skill, splendid as they are, are inadequate to bridge the fatal gap between the numbers of two battle lines, while, step by step, Austrian assistance descends to the point where «Francis Joseph must become not a “shining second,’’ Dut an add- ed burden. A Problem of Numbers. Consider the whole problem of German strategy—to hold Russia back with a fraction of its armies while it crushed France by weight of numbers—and it becomes clear that failure in the East and West foreshadows the time when mere numbers will put Germany complete- ly on the defensive. Four months of effort have not availed to end the war in the west. If Germany has not reached her maximum strength in the field, she has passed the point where she can hope to retain numerical superiority on either front. Such superiority as she has had in Flanders and France, too, since the battle of the Marne, has enabled her to do nothing but hold her lines and wear out her strength in terrific assaults upon the intrenched allies. For Americans, the November campaign must inevitably sug- gest the history of the Con- federacy of 1863. As the Ger- mans have been defeated in Flanders and in Poland, so in 1863 the Confederacy failed at AFTER SICKNESS armies fell back from Galicia and. aM But the opening days of November les flowed back into Galicia. Again ° | | the South, cut off from the outside world even more completely than the German“Empire, outnumbered, _ in- ferior alike in wealth and resource, continued for two years to make a resistance which lives as the endur- ing example of what men and wom- en can do when their hearts and their whole spirit are centered in war. With Gettysburg, however, ‘the out- come of the war. ceased to be prob- lematical. It was still possible the North might weary,-it was coticeiv- able that Durope might intervéne, ‘Sut théSe contingencies apart, it was plain that Pickett’s heroic troops, who advanced as the Germans have come forward along the Yser, had touched the high water mark of southern hope. To predict a speedy termination of the war is idle. To set a limit to the time Germany can hold Belgium is futile. It remains wholly possible that political changes may save Wil- liam II, as the change in Russian Czars rescued Frederick the Great at the gravest hour in his long and perilous career. But on the mere military side, it is hard to perceive now any chance for ultimate German triumph. Every shred of evidence that comes to this*country directly from Ger- many demonstrates the depth, inten- sity, unity of German detérmination. To conquer such a nation may mean years, as it must mean tremendous sacrifice of life and wastage of capi- tal, but at the close of the fourth month of the War there is almost overwhelming evidence to warrant the assertion that German success is no longer possible, given the exist- ing political conditions. Alexandra, 70 Tomorrow, Much Interested in War LONDON, Nov. 30.—Dowager Queen Alexandra, who will be 70 years old on Tuesday, intends to have a quiet birth- day anniversary. She will nét be visit- ed by the German Emperor (her neph- ew), though he was invited to come here for this occasion before war was de- clared. Her majesty has spent most of. the year in town. In spite of the extra du- ties devolving on the King, he visits his mother frequently and tells her the war news. Queen Alexandra takes a walk nearly eV ery. day with her dogs in the grounds of M&riborough House. She keeps herself very busy with her let- ters and with the close attention she gives to household affairs. She is showing great interest fn the war, especially in the- fortunes of the officers at the front whom she has known personally. If they return wounded she visits them in the hospi- tals. oe ESS eee _—— ee — QUICK RELIEF FROM CONSTIPATION Get Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets.

Uruguay, Nov. ¥.— The recent reports that the German fleet is now in the South Atlantic appear to have been confirmed here today. It is also. rumored, that a powerful British fieet is near by. Interruption of British shipping and the outfitting vf German merchant ships with supplies were ac- cepted here as confirmatory of reporta of the approach of the German fleet, which is now believed to be off the mouth of the River Plata.° The German steamer Patagonia is be- ing loaded here with provisions, the Sierra Cordoba with coal and the Mera with coal and water.

An abstract given out by the Foreign Office lays emphasis uron the responsibilities of Austria as primal cause of the conflict and says that Germany persistently avoided every opportunity to adopt measures of conctl- iation and reach a settlement. In its presentation of the case the French For- eign Office places the responsibility fully uron Austria and Germany, and relates lthat Great Britain, Russia and France were ready to adopt means of settle- ment, but that the Teutonic allies would not consent. Germany's ultimatum to Russia is said to have precipitated the rupture. France, according to the Yellow Book, exhausted every possible avenue of con. ciliation before she decided to draw the sword to defefid her very life.

After referring to some of the battles in which the Indian troops took part, Field Marshal French says: | “Since their arrival in this country and their occupation of the line alloted te them, I have been much impressed by the initiative and resource displayed by the Indian troops. Some of the ruses they have employed to deceive the en- emy have been attended with the best eee results and have doubtless kept the superior foroes in front of them at bay. “Our Indian sappers and miners have long enjoyed a high reputation for skill and resource. Without going into de- tail, I can confidently assert thut throug- out their work in this campaign they have fully justified their reputation. “The general officer commanding the Indian army describes the conduct and bearing of these troops in strange and éw surroundings to have been highly satisfactory, and I am enabled from my own observations to fully corroborate this statement.” Gen. French goes on to say that arhile tthe whole line continued to be heavily pressed the enemy’s principal efforts from Nov. 1 had been concentrated upon breaking through the line held by the first British and the Ninth French oorps and thus gaining possession of the town | of Ypres. Three Bavarian and one Ger- man corps, in addition to other troops, were all directed against this northern line, according to Gen. French. About Nov. 10, after several units of these corps had been completely shattered in futile attacks, Gen. French continues, a division of the Prussian Guards, which had been operating in the vicinity - of Arras, was ‘moved up to this area with great speed and secrecy. Documents found on dead officers, the report saya, proved that the guard re- ceived the German Emperor's special command to break through and succeed where their comrades of the line had failed. They took the leading part in the vigorous attacks made against the center on the lith and 13th, says Gen. French, but, like their comrades, were repulsed with enormous casualties. Pays Tribute toe Haig. Gen. French pays high tribute to Sir Douglas Haig and his divisional and brigade commanders, “who, he. says, “held the line with marvelous tenacity and undaunted courage.”” The Field, Marshal predicts that “their deeds dur- ing these days of stress and trial will furniah some of the most brilliant chap- ters which will be found in the military history of our time.” High praise also is paid to the Third Cavalry division under Major-General Julian Byang, whose troops “were re- peatedly called upon to restore situa- tions at critical points and fill gaps in the line, caused by the tremendous losses which occurred.” Gen. French makes special mention of Col. Gordon Chesney Wilson of the Hugh Wawnay of the.. and Brigadier-General Fitz evous for the skill, coolness and urag : with which he led his troops.”’ Of the flying corps, the report says: ‘hy new methods are discov- s Qi pre clit i> 2 CO RMAR Aipeetgg = tite te agree Spr adges. « ee ee ee BURGLARS SMOTHER DOE AND MUSIC BOX: IN ROBBING HOME “Too Much Mustard” Started Accidentally After Barking Animal Is Suppressed. Burglars who entered th: home of Henry A. Dieinant, president of the St. eLouis Commission Co., at 5615 Water- man avenue, during the family’s ab- sence last night, found it necessary 't9 stop the barking of Mrs. Diamant's Mexican dog by wrapping it in a shvat and to smother in bed clothes the ‘“‘Tvo Much Mustard’ and “Eyverybody’s Do- ing It Now’’ which came from an auto matic music box unwittingly set in mo- tion by them. Mr. and Mrs. Diamant, returning Ahome at 11:45 o'clock, wore welcomed by the dog, which had squirmed from tho sheet in which the robbers had envel- oped it. The music box, in the form of a powder can, brought by the Diamants from Paris, was found in bed. It had broken out joyously .with ‘‘Too Much Mustard” when the lid was’ removed and had. been shoved under the bed clothing as the quickest way of dis- posing of it. It finished the “‘Mustard” and struck up “Everybody’s Doing It Now,’’ to the measures of which the robbers did their worst with the Dia- mant valuables. The house had been ransacked and jewelry and silver to the estimated val- ue of $2000 had been taken. Mrs. Diamant’s will was taken from her desk, but the robbers were more interested in quick results than in be- quests, and they threw it on the floor. Most of the jewels taken were gifts from Diamant to Mrs. Diamant, and souvenirs gathered on European travels. The most valyable piece was a diamond ‘brooch in the shape of a crown, valued st $400. Among the ether articles were three bracelets, a cameo brooch, a string of pearls and two rings. Diamant lost an Elk Club medal, gold and diamond cuff buttons and a sapphire scarf pin. The silverware taker. included a collec- tion of 40 souvenir spoons gathered in all parts of the world. The robbers seem to have been fright- ened away, because they left part of their plunder, some clothing and pieces of silver, lying on the floor.

C. Hughes, #ho is held for the murder of Isom J Bagley in 1910, a special grand jury has been called to investigate that murder and several other crimes which it is thought may be the re- sult of the Bagley feud. Three hundr witnesses have been summoned and it is hoped that the mystery of the assassination of G, 8. Cook, a real estate dealer, who was shot te death in his home in Septem- ber of this year may be cleared. The assassination of Isom Gagiey has been a mystery for four years. He was a wealthy plenter and was shot, to death on the street near the Rhea Hotel, an hour after his son Alf Bagley, had been killed in a pistol duel with Dr. Hughes. It is.claimed the shot that killed the senior Bagley was fired from a hotel window. Dr. Hughes was ex- onerated of the killing of Alf Bagley on the plea of self-defense. Dr. Bagley was arrested two weeks ago and taken to the Arkansas Peni- tentiary for safekeeping. He will be brought back for the grand jury hear- ing. The Bagley fued began eight years ago, when Lee Ridgeway, Town Mar- shal of Walnut Ridge, killed John Bazg- ley, son of Isom Bagley, while trying to arrest him. The Marshal was exon- erated and left the community. Three years later he returned and was shot to death on the street by Alf Bagley. Bagley finally was acquitted. Dr. Hughes was one of the principal wit- nesses for the State mm the trial of Alf Bagley, and it is said that at the time Bagley openingly threatened “to get’’ the doctor. A week before Dr. Hughes killed Alf Bagley he is said to have fired six shots at him. The senior Bagley was killed when he went to town to claim the body Of his son. He was 6 years old. " SUCCESSOR UNHAPPINESS Feelings Unchanged ‘Toward Former Husband, but Hopes Bride May Rece‘ve ‘Just Due.’ NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—Mrs. Katherine Ketcham Blake, who divorced Dr. Jo- seph A. Blake last Friday,’ said of his marriage in Paris the next.day to Mrs. Katherine Duer Mackey, former wife of Clarance H. Mackey. . “No matter what, his actions may be, my feelings towards Dr. Blake remain absolutely unchanged. As for his bride, T can only wish her all the unhappiness’ that is her just due. “I was forced to obtain a divorce to protect my youngest son, Francis Hayes Blake Il. I wished to make provisions for his guardianship after I am gone. I did hope that they might wait a little while—it would not have been for long— before doing this thing. I am an Episco- paHan. The idea of divorced persons re- marrying during the lifetime of their’ former wives or husbands has séeemed unspeakable to me. I never could re- gard that scrt of thing as marriage.” GRAVOIS BANK ROBBER’S SENTENCE IS DEFERRED Court Delays Action When In- formed Prisoner Is Wanted in Kansas City: George W.

Zapata-Carranza Ne- gotiations Reported. WASHINGTON, Nov. %.—Advices re- ceived at the State Department from Aguascalientes say that Gen. Pabio Gonzales, now at Pachuca, 5% miles : northeast of Mexico City, with a foree of 800 ten, had deciared himself pro- visional President of Mexico. Gonzalez, who was one of the three principal leaders of the Constitutionalist army in the campaign against Huerta, had been supposed to be unswervingly loyal to Carransa. He was Carranza’s commander of the Bast, while Villa had command in the North and Obregon tn the west. | An unofficial dispatch -reports that Zapata and Carransa are in secret ne- gotiation, and that their armies may unite. With Carrange holding the two principal seaports and Zapata holding the territory around Mexico City, it is believed that Villa would have great difficulty in ousting them if they joined forces. Reports from Mexico City say that Zapata continues to maintain good or- der there. Amertecan Excursion Steamer Ordered From Mexican Waters. SAN DIEGO, Cal., Nov. 9.—Capt. R. K. Croskey of the steamer Golden West started from San Diego Sunday with 15 American passengers for the Corona- do Islands, which are six miles south of here in Mexican waters. On nearing the islands the Mexican troopship Manuel Herrerias signaled a desire ‘to communicate with the Golden West, which promptly headed for the trans- port. When close to the Herrérias a soldier on board suddenly leveled a rifle at Capt. Croskey and shouted “Vamoose!” As the excursionista became frantic the Golden West withdrew in haste.

Aguilar here last night. “Foreigners who have been ben- efitted by 30 years of peace must not object to reverses now. Every man in the republic is on an ‘equal footing.” W. W. Canada, American Consul, w present at the dinner. : Every ship arriving brings Americans on their way back to Mexico City, not being aware that the railway lines have been cut by Carransa'’s troops in order to impede the expected march of Villa's army. Some of these Americans have little money. In order to check ‘this tide of travel Consul Canada has asked the Government at Washington to an- nounce that there is no rail communica- tion with the Mexican capital.

ATTACKS POSTAL POLITICS Postoffice Clerks’ Officer’ Com- plains of Practices. Thomas F,. Flaherty, secretary-treas- urer of the National Association of Postoffice Clerks, in an address before Local Union No. 8 at Hibernian Hall yesterday afternoon, condemned the practice in the postal service of giving the best positions to politicians instead of promoting men from the ranks of. the workers.

Both the British and French Governments ¢on- cluded that it would be good policy to combat this German wireless news cam- paign by spreading reports of their'own through the same agency. Accordingly, the French are now sending military and political bulletins on the progress of events from the French point of view from their station on the Eiffel tower. The Marconi company is. dis- seminating British bulletins se pmniustia by the Foreign Office. This news rivalry has become a sort of joint political debate.

THE HAGUE, via London, Nov. 230.— The Dutch Government has categorical- ly declined all offers of financial aid for Belgian refugees in Holland which were recently made, unofficially, by an Amer- ican charity. While deeply appreciative of the generous proposal, the Govern- compatible with the country’s honor to cllow another nation or individual asso- ciation to assist in this mercy work, and that Holland herself desires to provide for all those neighbors who are afflict- ed by the war. Of the million Belgian refugees who fled into Holland at the beginning of the war, 300,000 penniless ones remain. One-half of these are living in the two southern provinces of Brabant and Zee- land. The remainder are divided among £00 communities. Winter is approaching and these refu- gees are now being gathered togéther in specially constructed camps situated on the dunes of Heath and at other health- ful spots. For this purpose, a special budget of about $1,500,000 has been passed to cover the expenses yntil January. After that a further credit of $3,000,000 will be given. The gravest task in store for the au- thorities is the rounding up and concen- trating of former inmates of Belgian prisons, who were liberated wholesale by the Belgian authorities before the arrival of the Germans, and who now are considered a public menace. In addition to the refugees there are %,000 Belgian soldiers who crossed the border into Holland, and were interned These men also are belng supported by special camps. The expense for their maintenance eventually will be paid by the Belgian Government, according to international law. Metal Products, Co. Bankrupt.

Sanford ~ Son a Seamless Royal Should Settle Differences Be- tween Labor and Capital. Archbishop Glennon delivered the ser- mon yesterday afternoon at the annual labor services of the Catholic church at the New Cathedral. The sermon was heard by members of the Central Trades and Labor Union, Building Trades Council and Industrial Workers of the World. ° The Archbishop advocated peace be- tween. labor and capital, reaching that climax by picturing the horrors of the Eurepean war, and the wrongs of strife, either international or industrial. The Archbishop said he was opposed to industrial wars which resulted in military operations and bloodshed. He said the Catholic church believes in the workers’ right to organize, and their right to refuse to work unless under contract, and believes that labor organ- izations should have the protection of the state. He said that a higher body, composed Two Centuries in Sunday ered.

CHICAGO, Nov. #.—Arbitration of the Aifferences over wages and hours of em- oyment of 9 western railroads and eir $000 enginemen began here today before a board of arbitrators appointed under the provisions of the Newlands act. It is regarded as the most import- apt case thus far to come under the iaw. ‘wage increase sought by the men is about 10 per cent.

JEFFERSON CITY,.Nov. 30.—An inventory filed by the West St. Louis Water and Light Co. with the Public Service Commission today discloses that the net earnings of the company for the fiscal year 1914 increased 35 per cent over last year. The net earnings for 1918 were $100,518.62, and for 1914 they are list- ed at $187,780.21. There was an in- crease of $44,362.04 in gross receipts. Hxpenditures increased $7100.45. The gross earnings for 1913 were $158,- 796.38 and for 1914 $208,158.67. The amount for operating expenses, legal services, “allowances” and all other current bills last year was $58,- 278.01; this year, $66,378.46. The inventory was filed 4s an ex- hibit in the cage instituted by several hundred citizens of St. Louis County, who, in a complatnt against the com- pany, charged that they were having to pay exorbétent rates and asked that these be reduced. The capital stock of the company is listed at $1,216,100. The total amount invested in the property, as listed by the company, is $3,011,936.32. The commission instructed its en- gineering department to make an ex- amination of the property at the earliest possible date and submit their estimated valuation of the plant, so that the case could be set for hearing. NEW 12TH ST. VIADUCT TO BE OPENED TOMORROW The new Twelfth street viaduct, ex- tending from Spruce street to Chouteau avenue, will be opened formally at noon tomorrow, when Mayor Kiel, in the role of a motorman, will run a Tower Grove car over it. At the Mayor’s side will be a regular motorman. The viaduct will be roped off ate the north and south ends. These ropes will be cut at noon, after which Mayor Kiel and President Kinsey of the Public Service Board will speak. Work of reconstructing the viaduct was started 22 months ago, and has been finished at a cost of $267,000. The viaduct is about twice as long as the old structure, which ran from Spruce street to Gratiot street. It is of coricrete, with steel reinforcements. Forty combination trolley and light posts add a beauty »? the structure, which greatly resemblics the concrete viaducts on King’s highway and Compton avenue. The west approach to the free bridge, which will be built along Gratiot ave- nue from Eighth to Twenty-third streets, will run under the new viaduct. As the old viaduct stood, the free bridge approach would have created a grade crossing at the Gratiot end of the bridge. —— a The Queen’s Daughters, a charitable and philanthropic associa- tion, celebrates its twenty-fifth anni- versary at headquarters, 3730 Lindell boulevard, Dec. +—-6.

She urged that working men pay no heed to the “sacred rights of prop- erty,”’ and that they let nothing deter them from accomplishing their pur- pose, She said that war should be done away with and that the only way to do away with war was for the workingmen to do away with the capitalistic classes.

Tih S MESSAGE IP TD OFFRE SAVED FE OF ACTOR!) — Player Had Gone to Demand Surrender of Fort and Was Arrested as a Spy. HELD FOR THREE WEEKS Emperor Threatened to Kill 300 Frenchmen if Parley Party Wasn’t Freed. ee By Mail From a Staff Correspondent of the New York World and Post-Dispatch. (Copyright, 1914. by Press Pub. Co.) BERLIN, Nov. 15.~—It seldom falls to the lot of an actor to play a real sol- dier’s part. But tne German empire takes all her sons into the army fold— from Prince to peasant. So it fell out that Carl Clewing, one of the leading actors of the Royal Theater in Berlin, is serving as a subofficer with the Ger- man army at the front in France. His experiences in trying to get a French fortress to surrender is as thrili- ing as any melodrama in which he has played. After the great battles of Namur and St. Quentin, in both of which battles Clewing took part, he was sent on Sept. 2 with a small company in an automo- bile to demand the surrender of a French fortress. They carried an im- mense white flag and drove slowly, expecting to meet the enemy’s outposts. But they were surprised at not seeing & Frenchman until they reached the fortress itself. There they suddenly found themselves surrounded by an an- gry crowd of French soldiers and civi!- ians. They would no doubt have ended their journey right there had not a French Colonel appeared and taken them under his protection. Party Seized by Outposts. The commander of the fort held a par- ley with a general staff officer and they refused to accept the explanations of the Germans and Seclined to sur- render. At first the little party with the white flag were conducted out under an es- cort of French cavalry and infantry, and after they had gone a short dis- tance they were set at liberty. How- ever, they were shortly afterwards seized by the outposts under instruc- tions. The whole party was blindfolded and put into an open carriage and all that night and the next day they were driven from place to place along the Marne. At one time they were handcuffed and at another they were thrown singly into prison cells. Then they were conduct- ed to a gendarme’s barracks. After several days of this treatment it was disclosed to them that the French General did not believe that they were parley officers. If they could not produce some better evidence of the truth of their statements concern- ing their appearance at the fort, they were to be shot as spies. As Clewing put it in truly theatrical manner, “That was like a pistol point- ed at the heart,” for how could they offer explanations other than the truth, It was indeed an uncomfortable situa- tion. But the French had changed their minds by morning. From the Brigade Commander they were taken to the Commander of the division, and from him to the Commanding General of the army corps, and at last up to the Com- e™mander in Chief, Gen. Joffre. Saved by Gen. Joffre. Gen. Joffre decided that the prisoners should be treated as parley officers, but they would have to be retained for three weeks in order that they should not be able to give any information of the dispositions of the French troops, When the time of imprisonment ex- pired they were conducted under a heavy escort to a place near the Swiss frontier, where they were put down in an open fleld about 5 o’clock on a cold morning. As no foreign soldiers in arms are permitted to cross the Swiss frontier without being interned as prisoners so long as the war may last, they were compelled to find their way back to their own army as best they could, skirting along the Swiss frontier. This did not prove as difficult as it at first seemed, because they found that they were only about seven miles from the German outposts. After Clewing had rejoined his regi- ment he was summoned to imperial headquarters at Charleville, near Se- dan, and received the order of the Iron Cross from the Emperor’s own hand. He also received the unusual distinc- tion of an invitation to dinner at the imperial table. During the dinner the Kaiser said to his guest: “Do you know why you were finally released by Gen. Joffre?’ When Clewing confessed that he did not know, the Kaiser said very em- phatically: “Because after the report reached us that you were taken I had a message conveyed to Gen. Joffre through Switz- erland that if my three missing parley officers did not return safe and sound within three weeks I woukl issue an order that 300 French prisoners of war In our hands should be shot.” 7 eee IF YOUR LAND APPEALS TO THE BARGAIN-HUNTER, HE IS LOOKING FOR YOU.

OKIE. “Germany via Berlin, The i Hague and London, Nov. 30.—A pair of gray submarines lie alongside the dock where the American sonderklasse yachts ‘were moored during their las: visit to Kiel. The warships anchored in the Fiord wear war paint and have their torpedo nets rigged. A Red Cross flag was flying from the Imperial yard buildings have been blackened to prevent lights from within being seen by hostile aviators. For a similar rea- son placards in hotel rooms bear tha request that the shutters be closed be- fore any light is displayed. As a further precaution against air-| craft, machine guns have been posted in inconspicuous positions on the roofs of the higher buildings and occasionally sentinels may be seen on the tops of the high structures. A broad expanse of fortifications and barbed wire en- tanglements is traversed here and there when one is driving on the outskirts. These precautions have been taken against any possible attack on the all- important Kiel Canal by air or land. Otherwise, the Kiel of these days of warfare appears little different from the Kiel of ordinary times. In the har- bor steamers and tugs with long tows go about their customary work, and in town, although there naturally is more activity, the people seem to be pursuing their ordinary course of life. Not Concealing Plans. The sailormen in this great naval base did not maintain an attitude of undue secrecy or mystery toward the Asso- clated Press correspondent who was vis- iting Kiel for the first time since the outbreak of the war. He was taken everywhere cheerfully. He was shown through every department of the Gov- ernment torpedo factory, which, in or- dinary times, those not connected with the service are never permitted to en- ter; he was taken into the newest sub- marines, aboard the biggest battleship to watch battle practice, with heavy guns and torpedoes, and through the docks where torpedo boats and subma- rines are being refitted or are under- going their customary cleaning. All) reasonable questions were answered readily. The visit convinced the correspondént of the truth of an earlier impression: That war, for the German navy, dif- fers from peace only in the existence of an actual, insteaa of a prospective, enemy. The navy'’s normal state of preparednes was so high, for example, that virtually nothing remained to be done to the battleships and cruisers after the outbreak of war except to peel off the paint from the inner walls to obviate the danger of fire, and to ap- ply a thinner coating to the outside for a similar reason. The battle practice is carried out with little more snap and enthusiasm than in ordinary times. Some of the officers and men who were questioned said they had seen the tips of Russian masts, but they ‘had seen nothing of war except the strenu- ous outpost patrol duty in the wintry Baltic and North Sea waters, with ice covering the bows and standing rig- ging of their ships. The occasional hailing of a passing freighter furnished the only break in the monotony. But this work also is part of the customary peace routine of the German navy. Men Anxious for “The Day.” These men unmistakably are chafing for a chance to meet the British navy and find it hard work to remain pa- tient, but take into consideration the strategic grounds which govern the policy of the German fleet. They ex- press little bitterness toward the Brit- ish, but rather a desire to match strength with a worthy opponent, whom they always have admired. A large number of submarines are approaching completion or are in an ad- vanced stage of construction. Several have been put into commission since the outbreak: of the war. All of these are of the largest sea-going type. The Germans claim that already they have more of the big cruising type of sub- marines than have the British Evi- dence also is to be seen that Germany's mosquito fleet of torpedo boat destroy- ers has been considerably strengthened since the outbreak of the war in boats having a speed of % knots. Details are not given for obvious reasons. There have been a considerable number of ad- ditions to the capital ships also, An interesting feature of the corre- spondent’s visit was the inspection of two submarines. One of these, Lieut. Weddigen'’s famous U-9, was of the old type. The other was of the latest type and had just been put into commission. This latter style of submarine is able to keep to the sea about as long as the crew can stand the strain. The prob- lem of rescue in case of accident is solved by buoys fore and aft, to which chains can be attached, and a smaller buoy carrying a telephone and an elec- tric light. A complete system of water- tight compartments give the crew a chance of life, even when quite a hole has been opened in the shell. - The torpedo works have been almost | doubled in capacity since the beginning a a Sew ght a F i 5 TF Yacht Club.

It was a li- cense from the crown authorizing a private ship to wage war against and to capture any of the enemy’s vessels. In those days of wooden walls a well- armed clipper or East Indiaman was al- most a match for a frigate, but the aim of the privateer was to ravage the enemy's commerce. A lucrative pur-] suit it was, too. In one year Capt. For- tunatus Wright captured 16 ships worth $2,000,000, while from one cruise in the Spanish Main the privateer Prince Fred- erick returned to Bristol with $3,000,000 in bar silver alone, and other valuable me that he had should be so fierce in his denunciation ‘had ia feeling | that I knew where Jack) w in spite of my denials.

What does ten thousand children mean to you? Four abreast they would make a solid column from Broadway, out Olive street, nearly to Grand avenue! In single file they would form a line from the river nearly to the city limits, at the center of the city. That is only ten thousand children. Twelve thousand would make the quadruple line complete tc Grand avenue and the single line overlap the city limits, while fifteen thousand would extend the single line far into the county. Last Christmas the fourteenth annual Festival was given the children in the Coliseum. ‘There were nearly eleven thousand children there, be- sides a large number of guardian fathers and mothers.

You have made remarks about “hard times,” but you have gone warmly clad, you have been cleanly and well fed, you have had opera or whatever min- isters to your happiness, and all you love have been ministered to just as in “good times.” But there are citizens of St. Louis, heads of St. Louis homes, where live the twelve to fifteen thousand children who have little enough in good times, who would regard that winter before last suit you ‘would not be seen dead in” as a robe of honor. For such heads of families “hard times” means NO work, NO money. The wife must scrub, wash, pick pecans, sort rags, sew pants and keep the home. Each child must have a task, even if it earn but a few cents a day, and each “PLEASE' PLEASE'” neck, but Bryan seized them firmly. . “Not yet.” he declared, backing away from her; “not until our relationship is more firmly established.” In his speech, which was to a gather- ing of Presbyterians, Secretary Bryan Tsien. not dreadnoughts and siege : is to bring ~— to warring Eu- ol nations of the world have deait with each other on the basis of fear,” he continued. “The flag has represented & power of which the people have been afraid.

What sort of a Christmas day wok you ¢ it when children must fast? The poor form a shifting population. There # those who clamber up out of poverty and th are those who descend into poverty. There those who flee from hard conditions in the coum try, in towns, in other cities, to hard conditions in St. Louis, | Every year workers in the Christmas Festiv Association find little girls who NEVER HAD x DOLL, little boys who never owned a ball or” any other toy, children who never had a warm whole garment to shield them from the bitter cold. N Christmas day for the fifteenth time the Christmas Festival Association will) gather all the children of the poor at the” Coliseum and give them the gifts which belong to © them by right of their being children. Every” charitable association in St. Louis—all nations, ~ all creeds—is lending aid in extending the invi- ~ tation of the Festival Association to the children 3 who would otherwise lack a share in the season’ joy. No child who needs shall lack an invitat) to this great community feast. No narrow pré dices of race or sectarianism shall bar any chi, And when they are gathered in the Coliset™™ there will be music to welcome them. They will see a Christinas pantomime performed under the direction of the Pageant organization and the Municipal Playgrounds Association. All the well- to-do of our community will unite in ex = Christmas hospitality to those who are not so well-to-do. . There will be mothers and fathers with the littlest children. . The Coliseum will be crowded with guests, who will sing their happiness. Beside all this, baskets of food, containing enough for a family feast, will be sent to the _ homes of all the poor»that the fatheryemother and children may gather about their own table and know the exhilaration of abundance. And those men who have lost touch with pros- perity and are homeless seekers for odd jobs will be given a dinner which shall help them to bright- er thoughts and higher hope. This work is broad. It costs money. It can- not be accomplished simply by wishing it were done. A large sum must be raised through the contributions of all the well-to-do in order that the expense may be met. HE Festival Association needs your help. It needs every cent that you may give. It will not lessen your luxuries to donate money that will give that great army of children, their worn mothers and discouraged fathers a good mouthful of Christmas. The sweetness of it will thrill you and make the plenty of your homes, with its profusion of gifts, a holier joy. Give what you can. Make your gift represent your purse. Whatever the sum it will be gratefully received by the Christmas Festival Association and duly acknowledged in the columns of the Post-Dispatch. Do not give money for the festival to any person who is not known to you. The Festival Association*has no solicitors. It relies upon con- tributions gathered by men and women from their friends and sent to the Post-Dispatch. Therefore either send your contribution directly to the Post- Dispatch or give it to a friend who is making up a list. Do not let unscrupulous persons collect money which should go into the Festival Fund.
