WRONG MAN BUT HIS LIMITED ENGLISH CAUSES HIS ARREST | “Sure,” He Says to Everything Police Ask, and They Report His “Confession.” The limited English vocabulary of @ young traveler who alighted from a Burlington train at the Washing- ton avenue station this morning caused his arrest as a suspected fugi- tive from justice. The police had re- ceived a telegram from Davenport, Io., asking: them to head off Arno Tonolai, 21 years old, whose descrip- tion was given. He was wanted for larceny, the message said. Two patrolmen at the depot thought the young traveler answered the. description of the man wanted. “Is this Arno Tonolai?’” they asked. “Sure,” he replied, with a smile. “From Davenport?” “Sure.” “Did you steal something there?” “Sure.” The patrolmen took him to police headquarters with the declaration that he had confessed everything. He was again questioned by detectives and answered every query with a smiling “sure.” Finally when the situation dawned upon the. prisoner he said, “Me no spick, me work in foundry.” PPO NO A ODE, CRON > - ‘ S ny > yy . “ os * = J ° 7 ‘ a - » dn ree Sra Oe. 7 yA Bs eV 4 ~ « POOR i z AxK etree, a Mi | r Bey) By Associated Presa.

LONDON, Jan. 20.—German aviators last night dropped a uumber of bombs on six English towns, only a little more than 100° miles from London. While it is believed in London that a Zeppelin or several Zeppelin airships made the raid, it is possible that one eeroplane dropped the bombs. | ~ For nearly four hours, from 8:20 p. m. until about mi a5 the machine or machines circled over the towns. So far as Has been Jearned today, four or five persons were killed by these mis- sles and about as many more were wounded. ee Gee The approximate times of the visit of the airships to the several towns in Norfolk are as follows: Yarmouth, 8:20 p .m.; Cromer, 3:30; Sheringham, 8:40; Hunstartton, 10; Hescham, 10:30; Dersingham, 10:40 and King’s Lynn, 11. There has been no news so far to confirm the report current last night that a Zeppelin has been brought down on the English coast; on the con- trary, it now appears that the German raiders returned whence they came, — The dense darkness and the slight mist which prevented effective pur- suit of or successful shooting at the raiders also hindered them in their ef- : ees PS SS i forts to reach some of their apparent objectives, and also to aim the bombs =E5 ae Se Re si ee ee ee 4 with the maximum of accuracy.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Jan. 2®.—The third day of 5-cent transportation by motor cars began this morning with 15 automobiles, covering 11 different routes to and from the residence sections. The Kansas City Jitney Livery Asso- ciation held its first meeting last night, with 15 men and one woman prepared to enter the service. The woman, Mrs. Cc. M. Gibson, had choice of routes and she took the one north from the new Union Station on Main street to Twelfth street and over to the Grand avenue terminal. The organization named W. H.

Five Weapons of Attack, Addington, in his address, declared the rational agreement provided a series of weapons for use against the ‘enemies of organized baseball.”” among whom it placed, he said, any person who went c.gainst its rule. The first weapon, he said, was the na- tional agreement itself, used to keep in line the parties to it; the second was the rule regarding territorial rights, which was intended mainly for use against those enemies operating from within, though it was used also against the Federal League; the third was found in the rules regarding contracts; the fourth in the alleged ‘‘blacklist’” and the fifth styling as “‘outlaw’’ and “contract jumpers’ its opponents. The national agreement’s rule that it is indissoluble except by unanimous vote admits of but one fair deduction, accord- ing to Addington. First, that it provides against competition from within; sec- ond, that players may be held as they come and go, and third, that the supply of players may be controlled. Because the agreement gives the na- tiona] commission the right to penalize violators of its rules; gives it the power to change or add rules, and also the right to judge differences between clubs and players, or leagues, Addington de- clared, it possessed legislative, judicial and executive functions. He took issue with the affidavit in tion of players is a matter of individ- ual contract. He insisted that the Na- tional agreement covers reservation in addition to the Individual contracts. “Player Never Free Agent.” “A ballplayer is never a free agent,” said Addington. “If he progresses at all it is by being bought, traded or drafted. Even when a club releases him he is not a free agent. The contract which —~ SSS SHIN TO Be PUT IK MAN'S VERTEBRAL Operation by City Hospital Phy- sician Expected to Strengthen | His Spine. In the. effort to cure John Oprisa, of 1519 Poplar street, of tuberculosis spondylitis, or inflammation ,of the vertebrae, city hospital surgeons to- day removed a_ splinter of bone 6 inches long from one of his shin bones. This bit of bone, % to 1-10 of an inch in width, was taken in order to be inserted as a reinforcement in the vertebrae, which have been weakened by the disease, causing a spinal curvature. The spinal operation, it was said, will be performed by splitting four of the lower. vertebrae, within 5 inches of the base of the spine, and inserting the new piece of bone in the split. This, it is hoped, will strengthen the spine and enable it to bear its weight. The operation is known as the Albée operation, and takes the place of a previous method which involved the use of a plaster cast for six months or longer. The removal of the bit of bone from the shin is considered a minor operation, not likely .to have any unfavorable effect. 2-INCH BONE STICKS IN THROAT Physicians Push It Into Man’s Stom- ach; Expect It to Dissolve.

NEW YORK, Jan. 20.—With one of her: “twilight sleep twins’’ on each arm, Mrs. the first woman in Greater New York to become the mother of twins under the new ‘nainless’’ method, yesterday told of her unusual experience. “The twilight sleep is the most won--. derful thing in the world,” said Mrs. McCabe, who is young, pretty, slender and in her twenties. ‘I would advise every woman who expects to have a child to have a ‘twilight sleep’ baby. “Tl was married early last May, and from that time on was never quite weil or strong. My family doctor told me I was not strong enough to have a baby— and yet, look.

When the doctors suggested that I try. the twilight. sleep treatment I willingly agreed. @ ‘My experience is difficult to describe, but there is one thing certain about it, I suffered no pain whatever. There was a sort of numbness. I could see the doctors and nurses about me, but felt nothing at all.

PARIS, Jan. 7.—The second courtmar- tial. of the intrenched camp of Paris will soon pass on the case of Capt. H-—., who is accusea of homicide. Capt. H—— had a wife and three children, to whom he was particularly attached, but the former seems to have hindered his mili- tary career by reason of her refusal] to be separated from him under any cir- cumstances. When the avar opened she went to the South of France but, learning one day that her husband was with his _regi- ment at Compiegne, she took ‘the first train for that point. This was -at the time when the General in Chief issued a circular prohibiting all officers and soldiers from receiving their wives dur- ing the campaign. His superior officers remonstrated with Capt. H——, remark- ing. that he was compromising his pro- motion, and also was likely to spoil his chances for the cross of the Legion of Honor. The Captain tried. to bring‘ his wife to a reasonable view of the situation out she continued to delay her depar- ture. A new warning was given the Captain without effect. When the third warning came the Captain was tolu that he must act without delay or he would be cashiered. Again he sup- plicated his wife to return to the South of France, which~ she refused to do, and, in a Moment of great mental ex- citement, fearing dishonor and degrada- tion, he shot the woman he loved. The Captain will be defended before the courtmartial by the eminent head of ihe Order of Advocates, Henrt Robert. In the meantime he is being subjected to examinetion as to his mental condi- tion. The Post-Disyatch its the only evening newspaper tn 8t. Louis that receives or pub lishes news gathered by the Associated Prese | For the most part the people took refuge ir their cellars. Several theaters were emptied quickly. An unexploded bomb found in Yar- mouth weighed six pounds and is cone- chaped. Press Comment Bitter. Comment of the British press on the airship attack is bitter, many London papers assailing the Germans in the Same unmeasured language as at the time of the Hartlepool naval raid. The event is being used as a text for edi- torials urging more rapid recruiting. The Pall Mall Gazette says the only tittmg answer is the sending of fresh armies to the Continent. The West- minster Gazette characterizes the raid as a violation of the rules of warfare. The Globe urges retaliation in kind, ob- serving that there are several flourish- ing towns within easy reach of British airmen. At Yarmouth, which is the largest of the towns visited by the aircraft, the police today issued a positive statement that the raiders were aero- planes. The smal! size of the bombs and the few missiles dropped sup- ports the theory that they were not Zeppelins, as those air vessels could carry a much more formidable cargo of explosives. The night was calm, but dark and cloudy, which made it impossible for the people in the towns over which they passed to distinguish even the outline of the raiders, though the whirr of their propellers and the droning of their mo- tors could be heard distinctly. The first place visited was the widely known seaside resort and fishing town of Yarmouth. Two persons, a man and @ woman, were killed, a number of other persons were injured and much damage tc property was done by the raiders dur- ing their visit, which lasted less than ten minutes. When the attack began the authori- ties gave instructions that all lights in the town be extinguished and other pre- cautionary measures were tuken. Few signs of panic were seen during the raid. Apparently the raiders, after visiting Yarmouth, flew over Cromer, where they cropped bombs and then went to Sher- ingham and Beeston. Turning inland from there they made for Sandringham, dropping explosive missiles there and at Kings Lynn. Only yesterday Scotland yard authori- vies issued instruction concerning meas- ures to be taken by the police and other officials in the event of an air raid. The police and special constables were called upon in the instructions to hold Outlined Against Sky LONDON, Jan. ®.

It was fitted with searoh- : lights, which now and then were flashed below. - “Then came the crash of bombs. .

The report of the attack on Norfolk County caused considerable commotion — in London. Searchlights all about the city were busily engaged throughout the evening searching the sky with their rays to pick up any aircraft that might approach. Reports reaching London were to the effect that a squadron of six Zeppe- lings crossed over the North Sea and on reaching the coast line scattered, some of them taking a southerly diree- tion and others an opposite course. These reports have not been confirmed, however.

It so happened that most of the inhabitants were indoors when the raid occurred. lragments of metal, supposed to have been thrown by the bombs, are beinz found in all directions. The whole thing was quickly over and no fires started in any part of town. The first impulse of the townspeople was to rush out of doors, but many, on finding that the alarm was an air; attack by the Germans, quickly re- turned to their homes and took refuge in the basements. Troops were turned out to assist the police in the search for wounded. Another air craft appeared here soon after midnight, but dropped no bombs. The Chief Constable of Yarmouth, in telling of the raid, said: “The people stood the raid very well. About 400 special Constables were called out and arrived with the utmost prompt- itude, “All Red Cross and hospital arrange- ments proved perfect.

The General talked frankly of the @resent military situation and the pros- pects of the war, which he evidently Qoes not expect will be a short one.

He is comparatively young, as commanders go ~—the youngest of any of the leaders of the European armies, with a tremendous capacity for hard, concentrated work. Trottle of War Machine. He is at his desk in an old French Government building, which houses the German general staff from dawn until fate at night. An unbroken stream of officers ’with reports and plans calling for his decision flows a]l day long in and out ‘of the little square conference room, with its table loaded with maps. He performs the dual functions of Minister of War and Chief of the General Staff and has little time for exercise or recre- ation. He sleeps at headquarters with his hand, as it were, on the throttle of the big machine, and yet his slender fig- -§ ure is ag erect, his manner almost as vigorous as the day he flashed into pub- lic notice with his memorable defense of the German army in the Zabern debate Ain die Reichstag. “This war is not a war of aggres- sion,’’ Gen. von Falkenhayn said, taking up the causes of the con- fliet. “It is not a war brought about by _&@ military caste or military party in’ Germany, but one of self-de- Tense, As a soldier I cannot, of course, talk on the political aspects or the causes of the war, but can speak from a military standpoint. “Tt was forced o@ us by the Rus- sian mobilization, in the face of *y which we could do nothing but arm ourselves.

BRISK ARTILLERY DUELS AT MANY POINTS IN TRANCE PARIS, Jan. 20. The War office this afternoon gave out an official report as follows: “From the sea to the Somme, in the region of Nieuport, there was yesterday a fairly spirited artillery engagement, in the course of which the enemy endeavored in vain to de- stroy our bridge at the mouth of the Yser. In the meantime we were suc- cessful in demolishing a portion of his defenses at this point; also we were successful at the Union Farm, St. Georges, where the enemy had strongly organized his position. “In the sector of Ypres and near Lens there were, vesterday, artillery exchanges of varying intensity. There was also a very violent bombardment of Blangiy, near Arras, but it was not followed by an infantry attack. “Irom the Somme to the Argonne there has been nothing to report, nor has there beer any activity in the sector of Soissons or in the vicinity of Craonne, or near Rheims. “In the region of Camp de Chalons as well as to the north of Perthes and of Massiges, our artillery direct- ed a very effective fire on the field works of the enemy. “In the Argonne, in the Forest of La Grurie, the enemy delivered a a violent attack on one of our trenches. Our troops who for a moment gave way under the shock, later recaptured in two counter at- tacks all their positions and main- tained themselves therein. The first of these attacks gave us a greater part of these poéitions and the sec- ond completed the work. “At St. Hubert the Germans blew means of a mine, the north- eastern projection of our trenches, Our troops threw themselves into the excavations caused by these ex- plosions and prevented the enemy from taking possession of them. “To the northwest of Pont-a-Mous- son, in the Forest of Le Pretre, we established ourselves at a distance of 100 yards in front of the German trenches captured by us the day be- fore yesterday. At the-end of the day (Tuesday) the enemy here deliv- ered a counter attack but without success. “In, the vicinity. of Thann there have been artillery engagements in which the advantage rested with us.” . ee we Last night’s announcement said there had been no important: change." for bribery of witnesses, juries, courts, atiorneys or experts?” Milliken was asked by his attorney. fhe millionaire laughed. Forty Attorneys in Case. “I did not have to do that to ‘get rid of it,” he said. ‘‘Everyone had theéir hands out for a share. I paid more than 4 attorneys who worked on the case. I had a score of detectives scour- ing the country for evidence. I had handwriting experts in droves exam- ining wills, letters and documents. I! had medical experts by the dozen ex- amining into the real causes of Rice’s death. No, I didn’t spend any of it illegally.’’ Finally, when Milliken had, as he put it, ‘‘soaked’’ everything he owned in the struggle to save Patrick, when he faced bankruptcy and the case sragainst his relative looked worse than ever, Frank | G. Logan, his partner in the oil. busi- ness, put up $27,000 to continue the fight. This money, spent in bringing the necessary facts before Gov. Higgins, laid the foundation for Patrick’s even- tual freedom, Milliken declared. He paid Logan back $17,500 of it, he sald, all that Logan would accept. In grati- tude Milliken gave him 10,000 shares in the Milliken Oil Co,, half of the con- tribution made by fin toward the fight. Money Paid Back te Him. “Of the amount spent,’ said Milli- ken, ‘‘Patrick’s wife and his mother paid me back $28,000. The stock that Hill gave me‘was worth at that time 10 cents a share. It has had a great rise in price since that time.” Col. W. C. Newell, general manager of the Milliken Oil Co., testified that this rise was due to the work and money put into the company by *Milli- ken and himself. Hill claimed that he had only given Milliken the stock ih trust to help him in the fight. The suit was brought, he said, under the supposition that Milli- ken had not spent the value of tne stock in freeing Patrick. After all the evidence had been tak- en in the case, Attorney John B. Smith for Hill admitted that he had no case, if the statements made by Milliken were true.

A previous warning of its approach had been given by the explosion of a bomb which it had dropped between the royal village of Sandringham and Dersingham, not far from The Wash. Reaching Kings Lynn, the aerial vistior circled unseen over the town and droppped four bombs, which exploded with terrific detona- tions. People thrust their heads out of bedroom windows in amazement, ask- irg what had happened. Great flashes if light accompanied the explosigns. Une of the bombs exploded near the docks, tlrowing splinters from its shell into the market place,’ Another started a fire. After hovering over the town for 15 minutes, the Zeprelin appeared to continue on its journey along the bor- ders of The Wash. A resident of Kings Lynn told the following story of the raid: “Tt had heard this evening that a Zeppelin had visited Yarmouth, and subsequently passed over Sheringhatn, traveling westward. I kept a shar» lookout in the direction indicated. About 10:30 o’clock I heard an exposion, whieh I afterward found had been caused by a bomb dropped in Dersingham village, eight miles from Lynn, and forming part of the King’s West Norfolk es- tate. “Subsequently I learned that a Zep- pelin also had dropped bombs over. the neighboring village of Snettisham, 10 miles northeast of Rihgs Lynn, and that another had fallen on Grimston, a village on the road to Lynn. At Grim- ston the missile fell near the ammuni- tion store belonging to the _ troops camped in that district, but no damage was done by it.’ The streets of Kings Lynn are this morning virtually paved with glass and souvenir hunters have been picking up pleces of bombs. According to the police the raiders circled twice over Kings Lynn and A dropped bombs in the neighborhood of the railroad station and the docks. Three missiles fell close to the station and wrecked the sheds in which the royal railroad coaches were housed. One or more bombs were dropped along the water front among the docks and dam- age was inflicted on the hydraulic en- gine house. The cagualty list here includes four injured.

He insists that it is correct, and that he is prepared to meet any investigation which~may be made | At 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon a’ clerk from Revelle’s office delivered to Deal a statement from Revelle setting cut many details of thw financial condi- tion of the office. The clerk told Deal he had been instructed to say that statement then continued: “The statement that the expense of maintaining the department for the years 1913 and 1914 amount to $13,795.51 more than the expenses of maintaining the department during‘the years 1911 and 1912 is grossly false an@ mislead- ing. The Legislature appropriated for this purpose an aggregate of $71,000, and of this amount something like $300 was not used, leaving available for those two years the sum of $70,700, and it would be impossible for the department to have $72,064.42, as stated in the Treas- William Conway testified that he and his wife, Katherine Conavay, were walk- ing along Vandeventer avenue when Coff approached and asked Conway what he meant by insulting Coff's mother. Conway started to deny that he had insulted her. Coff struck him. His wife got between them, but Coff struck him again. Conway's father was a short distance away, going to mail a letter, accom- panied by his 14-year-old daughter, Eliz- abeth. Mrs. Conway called him. He ran up Coff struck him and knocked him Suffrage Leaders Here Unaware Measure Was te Be Introduced. Mrs. David N. O’Neil of 6500 Forsythe avenue, an officer of the St. Louis qual Suffrage League, told a Post- Dispatch reporter that the reintroduc- tion of the constitutional amendment probably was at the instance of the State Equal Suffrage Board, which has its headquarters at Columbia, Mo. Mrs. Walter McNabb Miller is president of the board. “The St. Louis Equal Suffrage League SAY IT TAUS: (ACCENT LAST BYLLABLE) Sg Revelie demanded that by 4 o'clock Deal imcorporate Revelle’s statement : into a statement of his own and issue * #t as a statement of fact. The Revelle statement referred to 's report as “the alleged report.” in one Place referring to the report. Revelle said: “It contains the follow irg false. and misleading statements.’ One statement ir Deas report was termed in Revelle’s stat«ment as ‘‘gross- ly sand misleading.” 3 Stand on His Report. At 4 o’clock a clerk from Deal’s offico delivered to Revelle the following letter addressed to Revelle: urer’s report, and the records in the Treasurer’s office will disclose that the cost of maintenance during 1913 and 1914 did not amount to what the Treas- urer reports.”’ Major Vetoes Revenge Plan. Revelle then states that several thou- sand dollars of the $70,700 was used to pay expenses of the previous adminis- tration. Continuing, the Revelie statement says: ‘‘It will thus be seen that it did not cost $13,795.61 to produce $1167.26, but, to the contrary, a \nuch smaller cost than that produced an increase of $130,-; 927.97, and these facts the Treasurer well knew at the time he made his false did not have the amendment reintro- duced,’’ she said. “It was at first thought best not to bring it up again fat this session, but Senator Craig and Senator Farris told the suffrage leaders they believed it would have a better chance this time. Senator Craig intro- duced the amendment at the last ses- sion and is much interested in it. “I know that Mrs. Miller has been in Jefferson City recently, conferring with members of the Legislature. She prob- ably became convinced that a reintro- duction of the amendment would = be advisable, though it is possible Senator Craig and Representative Roney in- down and kicked him in the side. The accusation that he had insulted Mrs. Coff was based, Conway supposed, on an incident that morning. A painter at work on the Conway porch had planted his ladder in the Coff yard. Mrs. Coff came out with a revolver and threatened to shoot Conway if it was not removed. He told her he would get out a warrant against her for the threat. Mrs. Katherine Conway and Elizabeth Conway gave the same version of the encounter. On cross-examination she denied that her father had picked up a broomstick from the gutter. She de- nied also that she: had punched holes Ee MEAG A HuRH a i ! bg A ER 4 }} THE NEXT SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH | “Your statement was handed me a’ '. few moments ago for tny examination, a: _ und after examining same I find that you made charges there!n which, if true. my office certainly needs an investiga- thon. ‘Therefore, I will say to you thet - Keourt the fullest investigation by any yi or committees and will stand i Sroarsty by my printed report. “With the kindest of feeling sogass Bae malice in- through the metal lathing that the Coffs had erected between the two Tecan statement, if in point of fact his rec- ords are correct and he really knows’! what they disclose.” In conclusion the statement says: “My regard for official dignity and my keen sense of personal sympathy pre- clude me from discussing certain per- sonal matters which may have entered ‘tas report of the Treasurer.

Corn, and not. politics, he thinks. will be the salvation of Mexico, although some things in the line of politica must just now be done, before corn can get a fair chance. Senor Dominguez is going to New York and Washington the latter part of this week to tell Congressmen and bankers of his plan for saving: Mexico. First, he proposes that the United State should stop sending ammunition into Mexico— he cares not how many guns his coun- trymen buy, so long a8 no more bullets are sold to them. Second, he wishes a pan-American tribunal, another A. B. C. mediation board, to take Mexico's af- fairs in hand, settle them and start a new order of things going. Third, he wishes American banks to help in a general land-division scheme, which shall abolish the Mexican peon by mak- ing him an independent small farmer, and which shall put the soldiers. on farme. And fourth, as an immediate, siiuetiwe measure, he wishes the United States to decide what it will do when Mexico's hungry hordes pour into Texas, as he declares they will certainly do this spring, to escape starvation. The Bel- sian relief problem will then be repeat- ed on American soil, he says, and the Texas border region can hardly be ex- pected to bear the whole burden. Eggs at 50 Cents Each. “In Northern Mexico today,’’ Senor Dominguez told a Post-Dispatch re- porter, “eggs sell at: one peso (60 cents) each, and grain is hardly to be had at any price. Corn for tortillas (native corn cakes) is growing scarcer daily. The people are already looking towari« Texas as the land of plenty, and be- tween going there and starving at home no one can doubt what they will do.” To say, today, that.the Mexican prob- lem is an economic and agrarian one, is to repeat a truism, about which there is no longer any argument, and whigh is familiar to the most casual’ reader. But Senor Dominguez was saying this long before most persons in this coun- try, and some persons in Mexico, .«re- alized that there was any Mexican problem. His story of his conversa- tions on this subject with Porfirio: Diaz, Dictator-President, and with Francisco I. Madero. leader of the revolution and later its martyr, is interesting. “I went to Diaz in 1908," he relates. “Then his administration was at the height of its apparent. power and pres- tige. I was known to Diaz through my success in raising corn, and my edu- cational work among the corn raisers of Mexico. I had talked with him sev- eral times of agricultural. matters—in fact, he had invited ‘me to become a member of hissCabinet.. But this time, I went to talk with him of the needs of Mexico, “I reminded him/that Mexico had -but two classes, the highest and the lowest, and that there was no middle class. ! country, of which so much had been said and written was confined to the large cities, and that the smaller towns and the regions off the railroad lines still were without schools, without pub- iic improvements, and in the condition of the fifteenth century. I reminded him of the hopeless condition of the peon population, working for 0 or % cents a day and held in siavery by never-paid debts to their employers. 1 told him that these peons could not be expected to show loyalty. to a country that had done so little for them. Agvoentes Dividing Great Estates. Also, I toid him the remedy. It was, to divide the great landed estates. Let the owners apportion small farms, i to 10 acres, to these laborers, and sell them on long-time payments, * .ch own- er keeping a large tract f .~- himself, then let the little fellows cu:tivate their own land part of the time, and wérk the rest of the time on the big farms for fair wages. That was the plan I wes then putting into practice on my own estate in the State of Coahuila. “The carrying out of such a plan would require a loan Bie vec millions sin constantly in convinced. Had Diaz had his way the plan would have been undertaken. Also, I firmly believe, the Madero revolution and all the subsequent troubles would have been averted. “But Diaz had his evil genius. It was Jose Yves Limantour, financier of mantour had told him I was after a Cabinet position—that I wanted to be Secretary of Fomento (agriculture) This was the position which Diaz had once offered me, and which I had de- clined. Wrote a “Nasty” Letter. “I wrote Senor Limantour a letter. It was a nasty letter. Perhaps he still has it with him in Europe, perhaps he has destroyed it. He does not need it, for no one knows better than Liman- tour himself that ‘he, more than any other one person, made Mexico what :t is today; “Tl went about in Northern Mexico speaking on the subject 6f land division. | spoke of it always as a thing to be brought about peaceably and lawfully, net by confiscation or revolution. One night a little man was in my audience. It was Francisco Madero. He remained and talked with me, trying to enlist me in the revolutionary movement which he was then planning. I told him he was kindling a fire which was likely tv get beyond control,- and which might destroy himself. He and his brothers, I told him, being the biggest landowners in Northern Mexico with one exception, had a splendid opportunity to adopt the plan of land division. I told him what I was doing, and urged him to join hands with me. But he shook his head. Even then he was hypnotized by his evil genius, the master mind which con- trolled him, the mind of his brother, Gustavo Madero.” As lately as last July, Senor Domin- guez’s name was suggested in Mexican papers for the presidency. He says he is not a candidate and has neyef been: ppempereees sad ~ 2 on —~ = Choe —— eee meee Here’s Quick Relief for Constipated Condition A Simple Remedy to Correct Constipation Before It Be- comes Chronic. Very few people go through life without some time or other eing troubled with constipation. Jhou- sands injure themselves by the use of strong cathartics, salts, mineral waters, pills and similar things. They have temporary value in some cases, it is true, but the good effect is soon lost, and the more one takes of them the less effective they become. A physic or purgative is seldom necessary, and much better and more permanent results can be obtained by using a scientific remedy like Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. It does not hide behind a high sounding name, but is what it is represented to be, a mild laxative medicine. It is so mild that thousands of. mothers give it..to .tiny. infants, and yet it is so compounded, and ‘contains such defi- nite ingredients that will have equally good effect ed er by a person -suffering from: the worst chronic constipation. ~ In faet, among the greatest endorsers of Syrup Pep- sin are elderly people who have suf- fered for vearg and found nothing to benefit them nest) they took Syrup Pe sin, t is a fact that millions of fami- lies have Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pep- the house, homes like those of Mr. H.

It is pleasant- -tasting, mild and non-griping.

Hamill of New Jersey, W. C. Beer of New York and John @. Gray of Wil- mington, Del., in procuring the appoint- ment of James M. Sullivan as Minister to the Dominican Republic were dec- scribed yesterday at the investigatioi which is being conducted by Senator- elect Phelan, of California into Sulll- van's fitness to hold office. W. 8S. McGunness of Washington, who described himself as a pérsonal frien1 of President McKinley, a ‘Republican || politician,” and “Beer's dog Tray for 20 years,’”’ testified that Beer and Sulli- van had promised him the position of Director of Posts in Santo Domingo in return for his assistance in promoting \Sullivan’s candidacy. The position was; to be.a “sinecure,’’ the witness said. He described the meetings which he said were held between Beer, .Hamiil and Sullivan in Washington, previous to Sullivan’s appointment, the subject of which Was ways and means to get the ear of Secretary of. State Bryan. Beer, it has been brought out in pre- vious testimony, was attorney for the Banco Nacional interests in Santo Do- mingo, who are charged with schemes io exploit contracts with the aid of Sullivan. Trouble Getting Bryan’s Ear. At one of these meetings Beer was very indignant, McGunness said, bs- caust Manton Wyvell, Mr. Bryan’s sec- retary, had failed to deliver what Beer described as “‘the strongest sort’’ of a letter from former Gov. Glynn of New York, presenting Beer to- Secretary Bryan. It was decided to get the ad- vice ‘of Gray, who Beer had told him was Bryan’s personal friend. Beer called him on the telephone. “T don’t know ‘what Gray said,’’ the witness testified, ‘‘but Beer asked Ham- ill to see Bryan for them, which he did, and got Beer and Sullivan in to see him.’’ Some time after this, McGunness said, he was with Beer when Hamill came in and said: ‘“T have just comé from Joe Tumulty. Word has reached the White House that you (Beer) are a stockholder and direc- tor in the Banco Nacional.”’ Beer’s re- ply was, the witness sald, that he had a right as an American citizen to in- vest his money where he wanted to. After Sullivan’s appointment, the wit- ness said, he was asked by Beer to get Lon Owens to use his influence with Senator Burton of Ohio to vote for Sul- livan’s confirmation. This he did not do, for by that time he had “‘learned what was going on.’’ “Trail Along on Edge.’ ‘“T washed my hands of the business,”’ McGunness said, “‘but I decided to trail along on the edge and see what was going on.’ He said he saw Sullivan in Washing- ton while the Minister was there on leave of absence and asked him how things were going. “They’re going fine, Bill,’ Sullivan {said, according to the witness. ‘The big chief (Beer) will not only be- finan- cial agent of Santo Domingo, but of Nicaragua as well, as John Gray has got him next to Bryan, and Gray is the closest friend Bryan has.’’ Meeting Beer a few minutes later, the witness said, he told him what Sullivan had said, and that Beer had replied: “For God's sake keep quiet about that.”’ Last summer, McGunness said, he saw Hamill and the latter appeared to be ‘‘disgusted with Beer and his methods.”’ Commissioner Phelan announced that Joseph P. Tumulty, secretary to Presi- dent Wilson, had asked and been grant- ed permission to testify. Tumulty has been mentioned in the testimony as be- ing hostile to Walker W. Vick, former Receiver-General of Customs on the ‘island, who resigned and brought charges against Sullivan. The Commissioner procured from Vick the name of the man who, Vick said yesterday, had told him a postmaster- ship had been promised the man who would ‘‘get’’ him.

Sarli will be tried in a few vays hence, on the charge of disturbing the peace. Left Stage Hurriedly. Forlani told & Post-Dispatch reporter, who saw him after the rehearsal, tha® Sarli, last week, invited him to play at a dance, and that Forlani declined to take the job. Sarli was displeased at this refusal, he said. While the orchestra was playing the William Tell overture Sunday, Forlani said, Sarli struck hfm with the clarinet. He would not go into further details, for Director Zach had asked him to say as little as possible. He told Assistan: city Attorney Seidel, who issued the suntmons, that the blow caused his lips to become swolley, and that he was so alarmed by the sudden attack that. he abandoned his place and left the Odeon hurriedly. Zach’s Version of Affair. Director Zach here offered the re- porter a limited and censored version of the occurrence, which was: “I didn't hear the.second clarinet, and I looked -over to see what was the matter. I s“uw somcthing had happened.’’ That was all Zach would say, was much more than Sarli would. say. When he was questioned he retired to the basement and slammed a door. Persons who attended the concert heard a squeaxing noise during the Wil- liain Tell number, which did not seem to fit, and it was said later that one of the musicians at the rear of the stare had accidentally struck. his tnouth on 2 music rack, while se over to pick up a sheet of music. § the clarinetists are at the rear of the stead their mov e- ments were not clearly seen. ——- Society ISS ISABEL DEVLIN and John Mi B.

Gray Said to Have Been Used to Get the.Ear of Secretary Bryan. NEW YORK, Jan. 2%.—Alleged po- litical activities of Congressman James A. Hamill of New Jersey, W. C. Beer of New York and John @. Gray of Wil- mington, Del., in procuring the appoint- ment of James M. Sullivan as Minister to the Dominican Republic were de- scribed yesterday at the investigatiou which is being conducted by Senator- elect Phelan, of California into Sulll- van's fitness to hold office. W. 8. McGunness of Washington, who described himself as a pérsonal frien of President McKinley, a “Republican “Beer’s dog Tray for 20 years,”’ testified that Beer and Sulli- van had promised him the position of Director of Posts in Santo Domingo in return for his assistance in promoting .Sullivan’s candidacy. The position was to be a “‘sinecure,’’ the witness said. He described the meetings which he said were held between Beer, .Hamill and Sullivan in Washington, previous to Sullivan's appointment, the subject of which Was ways and means to get the ear of Secretary of State Bryan. Beer, it has been brought out in pre- vious testimony, was attorney for the Banco Nacional interests in Sante Do- mingo, who are charged with schemes io exploit contracts with the aid. of Sullivan. Trouble Getting Bryan’s Ear. At one of these meetings Beer was very indignant, McGunness said, bs- caust Manton Wyvell, Mr. Bryan’s sec- retary, had failed to deliver what Beer described as “‘the strongest sort’’ of a letter from former Gov. Glynn of New York, presenting Beer to Secretary Bryan. It was decided to get the ad- vice -of Gray, who Beer had told him was Bryan’s personal friend. Beer called him on the telephone. “T don't know ‘what Gray said,” the witness testified, ‘but Beer asked Ham- ill to see Bryan for them, which he did, and got Beer and Sullivan in to see him.”’ Some time after this, McGunness said, he was with Beer when Hamill came in and said: '“T have just comé from Joe Tumulty. Word has reached the White House that you (Beer) are a stockholder and direc- tor in the Banco Nacional.” Beer’s re- ply was, the witness said, that he had a right as an American citizen to in- vest his money where he wanted to. After Sullivan’s appointment, the wit- ness said, he was asked by Beer to get Lon Owens to use his influence with Senator Burton of Ohio to vote for Sul- livan’s confirmation. This he did not do, for by that time he had ‘‘learned what was going on.’’ “Trail Along on Edge.’ ‘‘T washed my hands of the business,’’ McGunness said, ‘“‘but I decided to trail along on the edge and see what was going on.’ He said he saw Sullivan in Washing- ton while the Minister was there on leave of absence and asked him how things were going. “They’re going fine, Bill,”’ Sullivan said, according to the witness. ‘The big chief (Beer) will not only be- finan- cial agent of Santo Domingo, but of Nicaragua as well, as John Gray has got him next to Bryan, and Gray is the closest friend Bryan has.”’ Meeting Beer a few minutes later, the witness said, he told him what Sullivan had said, and that Beer had replied: “For God’s sake keep quiet about that.” Last summer, McGunness said, he saw Hamill and the latter appeared to be ‘disgusted with Beer and his methods.”’ Commissioner Phelan announced that Joseph P. Tumulty, secretary to Presi- Gent Wilson, had asked and been grant- ed permission to testify. Tumulty has been mentioned in the testimony as be- ing hostile to Walker W. Vick, ‘former Receiver-General of Customs on the ‘island, who resigned and _ brought charges against Sullivan. The Commissioner procured from Vick the name of the man who; Vick said yesterday, had told him a postmaster- ship had been promised the man who would ‘“‘get’’ him. ——— 7 Stove, Range and Furnace Repairs.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 3.—As a fi- nal step in the plan inaugureted in July, 1912, to aboligh the sale of liquor> in all departments of its organization, the Pennsylvania Railroad announced today that the bars at the Broad street station in this city and in the Penn- sylvania terminal in New York would be closed at the expiration of the re- spective licenses. The “Hole in the Wall’ in the Broad street station long has been familiar to many travelers.

NG They Differ With New York Jus- tice Who Declared Quarrels Were to Be Expected. St. Louis Circuit Judges are aghast at the dictum of Supreme Court Justice Blanchard of New York City, who last Monday ruled that fights between hus- pand and wife are about as essential to married life as children. A Post-Dis- patch reporter, in getting the views of five St. Louis Judges, who pass upon hundreds of divorce cases, did not find one who adhered to the New York Judge’s unusual attitude. | Judge Blanchard, in passing upon a divorce suit, said about half of the peo- ple of any normal] community indulge in fights, and that if he granted a separa- in New York could apply for a separa- tion on the same grounds. Testimony showed the husband choked his bride, about as often as she hit him, but the husband had charged ‘his wife was ‘inhuman and cruel’ throughout theér marriage venture of eight months. “It was only a family row,’’ Judge ‘Blanch- ard said, as he sent the couple on their way without granting a separation. Judge Kimmel’s View. Judge Karl Kimmel thought that physical force in settling their dis- putes, as in the New York case heard by Judge Blanchard, the Court might decide under the Marquis of Queens- berry rules and declare the bout a draw. When a Police Judge, Kimmel said he frequently heard facts and cir- Cunmstances under which the only ef- 1ective remedy was the application of some physical force. However, he pointed out, the law does not counte- rance a man beating his wife, or vice versa. At common law, Judge Kimmel said, a man was not guilty of assault upon his wife unless he beat hér with a stick of a certain dimension, but the common law rule does not obtain in this modern day. ,; Judge W. M. Kinsey thought 99 out of 100 cases where separation was caused by quarrels ending in physical violence between husband and wife, are not of sufficient consequence to entitle either party to divorce and could be amicably adjusted. Such fights are common, he said, but certainly are not conducive to happiness or essential to married life. It may be, Judge Wilson Taylor de- clared, that fights sometimes make life sweeter to a couple after they have kissed and made up, but he would not recommend them as a good thing. A great many divorce cases, he said, are the result of family rows between hus- bands and wives, although many mar- ried persons, who are constantly at log- gerheads, never seek divorce, but live together until one or the other dies. They are the class of persons, he said, who believe in “fighting to a finish.””’ He did not think fights essential to married life, but said they often were incident to it and occurred, notwithstanding the couple might be very devoted to each other. Judge J. Hugo Grimm said nature did not intend that persons be ugly to- ward each other, but many persons cannot help acting that way. For them. he said, the curtain of charity should be drawn. He advised persons contem- plating matrimony to try to avoid rows: Family rows are not. as frequent as the New York Judge says, at least not in St. Louis, Judge James E. Withrow finds. He thought. climatic conditions ‘might have something to do -with the great number of family rows'in New York. P “Couples ought to try to get along without jars, and certainly they should not strike each other,’’ he declared. “There is an old saying. that a man who lays his hand on a woman, save in love, is a brite. No matter what happens he should never in anger re- sort to physical violence against his wife.”’ Woman Buyer Arrives Safely in Paris.

Alimony of $800, payable in davs, was awarded to her. The young woman signalized her re- tease from an unfortunate alliance by burning every scrap of paper that bors her former husband’s handwriting, and if the truth is being told by her friends, she has received many IlIétters in the last week in which Darnell urged all sorts,of plans for freeing himself from his three love affairs. Here are some of the resolutions made by Miss Vaughn as a result of her ex- perience with Darnell: : That she will never again try to read a man’s soul through his eyes. That she will hire an attorney to put his O K on the next man who proposes to her. That she will personally attend to the filing of the marriage certificate. That she will never again mistrust her intuitions, which tn the Darnell case were at variance with her heart’s promptings. ‘T knew there was something the mat- ter,"’ she said. ‘“‘What it was I could not imagine, but I believe every woman and girl has the power of divination in some degree. “I loved ‘Jimmy’ Darnell, and it seemed to me I would have gone to the end of the earth with him. And so Tt would have if it had been any other sort of offense I was asked to forgive. Had he been a forger, an embezzler, anvthing wicked except what he is, |! believe I would have paid the pénalty and have stood by him to the end. “But Darnell’s offenses are of the sort no woman could condone. Why after our marriage I held his face be- tween my hands and stared into his big eyes and tried—tried my best to read what was in them. There was a cloud that I couldn’t see through. ‘‘Jimmy’ wanted us to begin our married life in a hotel. I1 refused—it was the woman's intuition that made me. J! told him that we would not be- fin our married life until he had fur. nished a home somewhere. I said I didn't care where it was, nor how mod- est. That was true. I would have be- gun housekeeping with ‘Jimmy’ in two rooms andthe: cheapest sort of furni- ture. “There ought to be some sort of public bureau where people contemplat- ing so serious a step as marriage could file their names and the names of those they expect to marry, say six months in advance, and have an official report before issuance of a license to marry of the mental, moral and physical fit- ness of both parties.

As soon as any sort of man wants a girl to marry him, the protecting arm is withdrawn and she is supposed to be all settled in life.’’ “Are you still in love with Darnell?’ was asked. The girl bent her head for- ward and sat picking at a fringed couch cover, as she answered in a low tone. “I’m afraid I am. You see it is hard to forget. But it is all over. I have no respect for the man. I could not en- dure him about me. He is not worthy of any good girl’s affection. I hope he will be good to Ruth Soper and the baby. That is what made me so sad- the poor little baby, denied by its fath- er.

BODY OF MISSING WOMAN FOUND IN CHEST IN HOME Deputy Coroner Says Death Was From Suffocation; No Marks. of Violence. PITTSBURG, Pa., Jan. #.—The body of Mrs. Minnie Hunter, 39 years old, who had been missing since .Monday afternoon, was found by her husband, Frank A. Hunter, when he lifted the lid of a cedar chest in thelr home, yes- terday afternoon. Dr. J. O. Donaldson said Mrs. Hunter had been dead about 20 hours. Hunter and his son had slept near the chest Monday night. According to the report of a Deputy Coroner, Mrs. Hunter's death was caused by suffo- cation. No marks of violence were on her body. Mrs. Hunter was last seen alive at 4 c’clock Monday afternoon by Mrs. E. J. Umstead, a neighbor, who talked with her at the Hunter home. A. Hunter Jr., a son, returned from éechool shortly afterward, and found the house empty. Hunter, general manager and part owner of the Hunt Saw & Machine Co., returned home at 9 o'clock, and was told by his son of Mrs. Hunter’s absence. Supposing she had gone fo a social gathering or was visiting friends, he went to bed. On awakening Tuesday morning Hunt- er found his wife was not at home. He made a futile search most of the day. At last, thinking that if his wife had gone out she probably would have worn her furs, Hunter went to the bedroom of his son, where was the cedar chest jn which the furs were kept, and lifted the lid. He found the body of his wife, fully dressed, her face dewnward, resat- ing on the knees. “Mrs. Hunter had a rheumatic heart and I have frequently been called to treat her for this trouble,’’ Dr. Donald- son said. “It appeared to me as though she had been stricken and fallen into the chest.’’ The chest is about 4 feet long, 2 feet wide and about.9 feet deep, and has a heuvy lid. Mrs. Hunter’s furs were found in it. : Despite the statement of Dr. Donald- son, the police are still working on the case, which they claim has peculiar engles. Mrs. Hunter’s body was doubled up in the box in a peculiar position, her height being 5 feet 6 inches. The police admit that mysterious circumstances surround the death, but offer no solution of the case. BETTER THAN GALOMEL — Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets are a Harmless Substitute. Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets—the substi- tute for- calomel—are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. They ere the re- sult of Dr. Edwards’ determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to banish it brought out these little olive-colored tablets. These pleasant little tablets do the good that calome! does, but have no bad after-effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel some- times plays havoc with the gums, So do strong Hguids. It is best not to take calomel, but to let Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets take its place. Most headaches. “dullness’”” and that many feeling come from constipation and isordered liver.

My trouble began with a pain in my stomach, sc severe that it seemed as if knives were cutting me. I was treated by two of the best phy- sicians in the country, and consulted anothor. None of them suspected that the cause of my trouble was kidney disease. They all told me that I had cancer of the stomach, and would die. I grew so weak that I could not walk any more than a child a month old, and I only we:ghed sixty pounds. One day my brother saw in the paper your advertisement of Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy. He bought me a bottle and I took it. They could see a change in me, so they offtained more, wt I took in all thirty bottles of Swamp-Root. That may seem a great deal, but I spent more than the cost of thirty bottles of Swamp-Root for doctor ’s. medicine, and it did not do me @ particle of good. I was so weak and run down that it took consider- able to build me up again.

A gdod-sized crowd, in the Washing- ton University quadrangle at noon to- day, braved the. weather to see St. Fatima, her king and her wood nymphs perform their annual stunt, and to hear the voice of Allah speaking to them from the towers. St. Fatima is the patron of the archi- tectural students, and her day is the Wednesday before the beginning of midwinter examinations. ‘'‘High’’ noon is the prescribed hour, and she appears regardless of “rain, shine, hail or All the architectural students take part in the stunt, most of them as wood nymphs, with undraped or scant- ily covered limbs. The air today was a little brisk for wood nymphing, and some of the students were inquiring whether overcoats would be considered un-nymphlike. Percy Ramsey was St. Fatima, and Harry Payne the king, whose kiss awakens tne saint from a year’s nap. George Simpson, in one of the towers, took the megaphonic role of Allah, who answérs the prayer of the king and the saint The prayer is to the effect that the architectural stu- dents may pass in their examinations. There are four young women students in the architecture classes, but they did not take part in today’s exercises. They looked on from the side lines.

In Russia, Servia and Japan our policy provisions protect us fully against all war risk. done little business for ten years and the age of our insured reduces the war risk 'to the vanishing point. Our war risk, therefore, is practically limited to Germany, France, Belgium and Austria-Hungary. countries policies issued prior to 1899 carry a clause which substantially eliminates the war risk. Of the policies issued at a later date there were in force in these countries at the outbreak of hostilities about 15,600 ~ held by men whose attained age—that is the present age—was between seventeen and _ thirty-nine inclusive— about 144% of our membership. We estimate the number of policies outstanding in these four countries on the lives of men between seventeen and — fe thirty and having no clause limiting the war risk, at 2,600, representing not more than 2,400 lives, or about 44 of one per « Our death losses incurred in 1914, including < an extra — of $500,000 for losses probably incurred but not reported, were 73% of the amount provided in the that year.

You may have been told that the Company would suffer because of its foreign investments. This is not true, Our foreign investments, limited as they are to Government Bends and high grade municipals, have naturally fallen in price, but not appreciably more than domestic securities. No security issued by or in any country engaged in this war and held by us is in default of either principal or interest. | If the same statement with regard to American securities could be made by this and other American Life Insurance Companies, as well as by our Hospitals, Universities, and by Trustees generally, the financial outlook would be brighter. There is no reason to believe that we shall lose a dollar, principal or interest, on our foreign The greatest single effect of the war on the New-York Life is to demonstrate, as perhaps no other" condition cain not merely the Company's strength, but its social usefulness. Since August first, last, the Company has administered an extent of practical heneficence which surpasses the limits of exact statement. In spite ‘of unprecedented difficulties—difficulties which have actually destroyed a large part of the commerce of the world, disarranged international credits, and shattered international relations—we have met every obligation and satisfied every just claim. After the first period of strangulation of credit passed, we disregarded all moratoria or othér governmental © decrees under which we might have postponed payments to policy-holders or beneficiaries. Since the first of August we have advanced money to policy-holders as loans on their policies as follows: : Amount of Loans, tet Te No. of Leans. 49,275 7,498 2,314 sues Policy-holders at home have been helped in about the same proportion to outstanding insurance that has ruled in We have all felt the war here most keenly. No considerable business has escaped. It has been the good fortune of our membership to relieve suffering humanity, without charity, over a’ wider portion of the earth than ever before—perhaps to a degree never before equaled by any human institution.

The railroads wére powerful in politics and the people acquiesced, because it was supposed _ that the failroad attorneys’ superior ability and knowl- edge of the railroaq business fitted them for the office. _No matter how honest the man, his rail- road training and association biased his mind and the railroads profited by the custom. Judge McPherson came out of the law offices of: the Chitago, Burlington & Quincy and his retnarks which differed widely from enlightened opinion and progressive legislation touching the railways. | Railroa lawyers do not now gravitate toward: the Federal bench as they did fifteen or twenty years ago. No‘matter how honest they may be, they are disqualified, dnd\ for reason. Much of the work of those tribunals relates to transporta- tion. - Mén. who: have passed their lives in the legal departments of railroads acquire a partisan- ship which nd judicial robe can conceal. Not a little of the public “hostility to railroads may be traced to the bad policy of seeking such appoint- fients from easy-going Presidents and to the mis- usé that often has been made of them.

At the inquiry in New York which Senator- elect Phelah is conducting on James A. Sullivan, Minister to Dominica, Witness Chas. A. Butlin téstified that when the Italian Minister and the British Charge d’Affaires paid an official call at the embassy one day Mr. Sullivan received them in his undershirt. The shirt-sleéve diplomacy of the United State; has w6n gratifying triumphs. Judging from some of. the téstimony in the inquiry the under- shirt kind is far from being a more intensive diplomacy of the same brand. It should be cut short. | a = = * rr BOY CHAUFFEURS. One of the critical factors in the accidént which caused the death of city Fireman Finnegan was the loss of control hy the boy chauffeur. There may: be a fender that will stop a moving automo- bile or car immediately, as claimed, but one of athe most pressing needs is the removal of tHe ‘menace’ of the boy chauffeur. A youth of 18 would not be permitted to take out a locomotive. But any youth or inexperienced person can get e ehauffeur’s license by sending a properly filled out blank to Jefferson City. The only, way to safeguard the public is to base the granting of these licenses upon. adult age. and actual tests. Each city and county should heve examiners whose duty it would be to find out, by a series of such tests, whether or not the applicant knew his machine and could drive it under all ordinary conditions. = = * re. MORE JOBS FOR THE WORKLEBS. At the Von Hoffmann soup kitchen 4137 were fed on Christmas, the number exceeding 4000 on several days late in December. Three weeks later, or last Friday, but 1987 were fed, which was aboyt the average for several other days. - That. those who applied for relief last week were less than half as many as those who ap- pliéd Christmas week is due to an improvement in émployment conditions. The Frisco has lately cngaged 700 men for out-of-town work: other railroad systems have sent away gangs ‘of con- siderable size and a number of local manufactur- ers have increased their force. Some of these jobs were obtained by men who had been aided by the soup kitchen. A- 50 per cent decrease in eh soup line must mean a gratifying percentage of increase in the sckngcaine carrying dinner’ pails. — Pe i i RIVALIN G MISSOURI'S : ROOSTER. In the course of his quests, prompted by the diversified demands of his extensive clientele, our Professor of Useful Information picks up many a curious item. The following, among the bric-a- brac of his latest gleaning, we feel sure will de- light not merely the one inquiring reader for whose satisfaction it was sought, but every intel- ligence: xX. Y. Z-—From Wesson, Mich., comes a well-authenticated story of a farmer who has not méreéely a hen which wéars five-inch fuf in place of feathers. but a reostér which is ac- cused of laying eggs. The rooster has been ehut'up in solitary confinement for two ‘weeks, and the eg& has been thére every forenoon. The hen’s wearing of a set of furs, we take it, ir a perfectly natural propensity according with hitherto observation of the influence of climatic environment on évolution in animal life. But the rooster’s performance is remarkable, a tri- umph of the unusual, properly what Darwin termed a freak, and a noteworthy contribution to qne, of the, greatest sciences. But' granting its full, yalues, the, Michigan rooster is still eclipsed by, Missouri’s world-famous . bird,. which has not only done more for the cause of natural history].

A A - = THE INVASION FROM THE AIR. — A German air fleet that included at least some England. Between 8 and 10:40 Tuesday night‘ six towns were attacked with the following result: , At King’s Inn a widow and her baby and a 1?-year-old boy were killed. At Yarmouth the deaths apparently will not exceed four. and may not be more than two. At Sandringham bombs were dropped in the vicinity of the King’s summer palace. Aside from the injured, other damage was ‘ confined almost wholly to the residences and . other property of noncombatants. As a military movement the raid was without important results except as affecting the British 7 ‘WEDNESDAY EVENING: JANUARY. 20, ‘915. | . *. “> oe kes 4. . i . eas 8 5 gi ~ ; bss BES AQIS e? .

So far as that is concerned, its sugcess was ominous. Regarded as an experiment to see what improved types of air- craft can do, it seems an alarming foretaste of what may follow. If a small derial squadron can cross the sea unopposed, find its way with ease to small centers of population and drop a few bombs, what may not a bigger squadron of scores of craft do to London and other large cities? For months England has been making elabo- rate preparations to repel aerial invasion. These preparations, to which the best minds of that and other countries and great sums of money have been devoted, appear to have been futile. The hostile squadron escaped uninjured. a > > rr COTTON FACTS FOR THE G.-D. Our morning Republican centemporary, think- ing to score a point against its political opponents iv authority at Washington, uttered this com- ment: .A question hie the Solid South: Under what Republican chief magistrates was the cotton industry so depressed as it ts at the present time. “* A Post-Dispatch reader in Arkansas “calls” the G-D. in this fashion. Under McKinley, cents. Under Roosevelt, 1904, 442 cents. Under Taft, 1911, 8 cents. Present price, 7% cents. These facts from the cotton records acquire added piquancy from the fact that no foreign war hampered cotton exports under either of the three Republican administrations cited. = = * FORTY-TWO CENTIMETER EARTHQUAKES. Dr. Alois Kaehlin, said formerly to have been a faculty member at the University of Halle and now of New Jersey, gives a scientific verisimili- tude to the cartoonists’ conception of our old planet, shaken and crumbling under the shock of war. He says that no other handiwork of man has ever caused such tremendous concussions as the Germans’ 42-centimeter guns, and he thinks it reasonable ‘to trace a connection between them and the earthquake in Italy. To assume that these discharges could cause vibrations in the earth's crust to be transmitted as far away as South- crn Europe, is, he says, entirely probable. A natural effect of their incessant continuance. on — 1897 and 1898, cottcen 4% just what has happened in the Italian peninsula. It ts a fanciful theory, but who,can dispute him? The strength of his position is in the fact that we know so little about earthquake causation and his hypothesis is as good as any’other. If ascertained tc be true, what can be done about it? How long will it be before we must expect seismic dis- asters in our own Caribbean and Pacific earth- quake zones? oe THE HIGHEST DEMOCRATIC IDEAL. In the new industrial organization of human life, built around huge, costly, complex machines, much of man’s earlier individual independence lias had to be surrendered for more effective co- operation. In the realm of mind and morals, despite many encroachments made upon ‘individual liberty at the instance of well-meaning but often_short- sighted reformers of other folks’ customs, nobody has offered a better ideal for evoking strong, self- responsibility. »& &» ii i G. P. DODSON, A QUIET HERO. The ftory of how G. P. Dodson quietly sank be- neath the water, in order that a woman, might be saved, told in Tuesday’s Post-Dispatch, is a comforting contrast with the numerous stories of selfishness and crime that shock us day by day. A. man and a woman were suddenly thrown into deep water by an explosion, she with a life preserver, he with none. “I asked him to take hold of my life preserver,” said Mrs. Murray. “If I do that,” he said, “we may both go down.” I told him it was his only chance,, but he wouldn't do it. He told me good-by and sank below the surface.” Under similar conditions, that is how any man would like to die. “Greater love hath ne man than this—that he lay down his Mfe for a friend.” ; = = = AN UMPIRE NEEDED FOR BILL SUNDAY. | This is a very free country.

They are alike in nothing but the single fact of not being entirely agreed with us. There are fewer hidebound people than narrow-minded people. This is necessarily so, for hideboundness, being of time, may change; whereas narrow-mindedness, being wholly structural, is permanent. There is nothing structurally wrong with the minds of hidebound people. Their defect is functional. A good example of a hidebound person is one who does not think this is so. He has not looked into it. When he does, he will agree with us. Not so with a narrow-minded person. We shall never agree. Broad-minded people are those who agree with us at once. They do not have to come around to it, as we say. Following broadly, they usually arrive at a given point about the same time we do, though still hailing is as guide and conductor.

To Vincent he conveyed the impres- sion of a man whose intellect was fast weakening. “I'm getting scared,” observed Rood, qin a hollow tone. “You know I always have a good deal in the way of money or valuables in the house. I believe burglars have tried twice to break in.”’ Vincent attempted to reassure Rood. He believed this idea was a baseless notion, grounded on nervous fear. He advised Rood to hire a watchman or to keep a weapon handy. Rood listlessly objected to having any- body around. As to a weapon, he had only an old triggerless rifle. “Tll loan you a revolver, accommo- datingly proffered Vincent, and brought it the next day. e made several other calls.

The dolefu! tragedy he was playihg out was reach- ing a dreadful climax. He raved in coherently. Finally he sprang up, the revolver Vincent had loaned him in his grasp. His eyes were bloodshot with a dreadful resolve. “You are doomed!” he hissed to his visitor, throwing over a chair with a crash. Then aloud, he shouted at the top of his voice: *‘Ah, Barrows! you threaten me, eh? Hands off, you scoun- drel—would you murder me!’’ Bang!

It displays a girl’s beauty to perfection. Thus it brings about love, engagements, mar- riages. The percentage of marriages, you know, has greatly increased since dress has grown more—er—more modern.” : Mrs. Ellison Fenner added with a srnile: “A friend of mine entertained a dozen young men and girls at her country house during the holidays.

THE! COMrORTS oF WOME ed —— —_— Mrs. Mouse. + Fools the Cat * RS. MOUSE told her fivg little MI ones that she would take them out for a walk and let them see the barn in which they had a hole in the floor. ‘“‘But you must be very quiet’ she told them, “‘‘and keep close to me also, for Mistress Pussy some- times takes a nap in the barn door- way in the afternoon, and she always sleeps with one eye open.’’ The five little mice danced about with glee, for they had never been out of the hole in which they lived and they had heard wonderful tales of the barn and the great bags of meal and grain that were there. : “If you are not more quiet,” said the mother, “‘you cannot go, for you will attract attention by your squeaks, and ing after you that was not the worst. of it. that is a thing that well-bred mice never do: if you wish to live in this world you must be quiet and move about with swiftness.”’ ' The five little mice sat up in a row and folded their arms while their mother washed their faces and they did not squeak as they usually did, but held still and let their mother rub as hard as she liked. HEN they were all ready she took them to the hole and looked out very cautiously. ‘‘You must keep very close to me,” she said, ‘‘and if I should run you must scamper into this hole as fast,as you can, for you may know that Mistress Pussy is in sight.”’ ‘“‘Yes, mother,’’ said the little mice, and they followed her out. First she took them to the bag of meal and showed them how to gnaw a hole in it so that it would not be seen and then she showed them how to find the grain, ‘and all the time you must’ keep a sharp lookout for Pussy,’’ she said. Just then, Mrs. Mouse glanced toward the door dnd there was Pussy coming in. She could not get her little ones back to the hole without passing Pussy, so she ran back of some barrels and told the little mice to follow her. Pussy walked around, as though she had not seen them, but she sat down right in front of the hole, where they lived. “She saw us,” said Mrs. Mouse. ‘She is a sly one, but she is not any wiser than I am, and if we can keep out of reach of her claws I think I can fool rer.’ Pussy was stretched out now as though a mouse was farthest from her thoughts, and she yawned as if she could hardly keep awake. But this did not fool Mrs. Mouse; shc well knew that the minute she moved Pussy would spring for her lige a flash. HEN I say run,” she told the little mice, ‘‘do not wait to see where I am, but get into the hole as quickly as vou can and keep away from the open- Sandman Story of the Trick She Played to Save Her Family From Pussy’s Claws By Mrs. F.

Quick as a wink Puss was up the side of the barrel and into itr, and Mrs. Mouse called to her little ones “run,’’ and they did. Now Pussy did not know what Mrs Mouse did about that barrel. There was a hole in the bottom,of it, and as Puss cume over the top, Mrv. Mouse ran ou* of the hole in the bottom and was in her home before Pussy could wink. And The barre] was deep and the sides smooth ‘and Pussy could not get out untii her master came in to feed the horse and heard the scratching. “Why are you in there?" he asked as lhe lifted her out. Puss looked foolish, and he laughed when he saw the hole i: the bottom. “Fooled you that time, didn't they ?’’ he said with a laugh. Pussy ran away for her supper, but #ne made up her mind to give special attention to that hole where the mouse family lived, and not to be fooled a second time.

B. as Trust May See Defense | Based on a New Act. | CHICAGO, Jan. 20.—Forces of organ- izeG@ baseball, attacked by the Federal League as a combination operating in violation of the Sherman anti-trust law, were ready to go before Judge Landis in the United States District Court to- day, to fight a motion for an injunc- tion sought by the Federals. Several hours were expected to be taken up in the presentation of argu- ments, by attorneys, for both sides. The le of the hearing is problematical. If Judge Landis decides to call on any of the 49 signers of affidavits as oral witnesses, e hearing, it.is expected, will continue pe several days. None of the attorneys or executives of the three leagues was of the opin- ion that oral witnesses would be called. All of those named in the charges have filed affidavits... Men identified with the erican and National League filed 3%, while the Federal lLeaguers, in maki their poe Aa presented them in 19 swo atatements. Briefly the facts in the suit are as llows: You See, It Is This Way— The Federal League seeks to dissolve organized baseball, which operates ung der the so-called national agreement, as it is alleged it violates the anti-trust law. Organized baseball includes prac- ucally every league in the nation, ex- clusive of the Federal organization. The Federals also seek to enjoin the individual defendants from interfering with players now under contract to the Federal organization and also asks that the contracts with players made by the defendants and each of them under the national agreement be declared null, void and of no effect. If the Federals are successful in the quest for temporary injunction, steps will be immediately taken to obtain a permanent order. Should contracts be declared null Yand void, it would make “free agents” of all players except such as are now signed by equitable contracts. The defense of organized baseball that it does not operate in violation of the anti-trust law, will be based on section 6 of the Clayton act, re- cently passed by Congress, it was reported today. The section which at- torneys for the defense are expected to cite reads: The O. B.’s Defense Planned “That the labor of a human being is not a commodity or article. of com- merce.” As the Federals’ bill alleges that organized baseball is a trust in “restraint of trade and commerce,” the attorneys for the defendant, it was said, will contend that as organ- ized baseball deals onhy -in labor, it eannot violate the-«law. * Arguments for the defendants will be resented ae George Wharton Pepper of hiladeliphia, ‘counsel for the National ague e will be aided by Samuel L. Clement of Philadelphia and several other attorneys engaged by the individual de- fendants. eene Addington of Chicago and Edward Gates of Indianapolis, with several assistants, will be in charge of the case for the Federals. Practically every person connected with the American, National and Federal Leagues in an executive capacity was in Chicago to attend the hearing. Several managers and players of the various clubs also were present. Meredith Can’t Run for Pennsylvania U. Before June 1,-A..A. U. Declares NEW YORK, Jan. 20.—Secretary Fred- erick W. Rubien and Bartow S. Weeks, chairman of the Legislation Committee of the A. A. U., have decided that there is no clause in the rules of the union which would give Ted Meredith, the University of Pennsylvania runner, the right to compete for his colege until after June 1 of this year, because he has represented the Meadowbrook A. C. of Philadelphia in sanctioned sports since October 1 of last year... No official opinion has been rendered as yet, but ge Weeks announced that he expects ve his opinion today. President Alfred J. Lill recently de- cided that Meredith was ineligible to run for his college in a special event, to be staged at the Boston A, A. games, on Feb. 6, President Lill's ruling bars many other athletes from representing their colleges in A.

THESE charges and counter charges, criminations and _ recriminations, now being passed back and forth be-| tween the several bodies of organized and disorganized baseball reminds us of a little affair that occurred in the kitchen the other evening. We got the = from the cook, who had a ringside sea “You are black,’’ said the Kettle, ad- dressing the Pot, they stood side- by-side on the shelf; “Very true,” said the Pot, you’re not What vena call alabaster yourself.”’ ‘‘and I notice “My complexion is dark, but I rise to remark,’ Said the Pot in acidulous tones, “That people who dwell in glass houses do well To refrain from the throwing stones.’’ of This my from the Pot made the Kettle 80 ot i That he straightway boiled over with ragé; While the Poker and Tongs sympathized in his mel Ane And attempted is wrath to assuage. But the Pepper and Salt said they both were at fault, Neither one nor the other were white: Then the Pans and the Pails tumbled off of their nails, And they all took a hand in the fight. The Mop had a hunch he could wipe up “I’m the only white He was quickly subdued in the fight that ensued. For he couldn’t make good without Soap. Then the Dustpan and Broom rushing into the room Said they’d sweep them all off of the map; But the Clock, yelling ‘“‘Time!’’ brought an end to this rhyme, And likewise the great kitchen scrap. The Organized baseball people will con- tend that they are not a trust in restraint of, trade, as labor is not a ¢ommodity. But what has playing baseball got to do with labor? ~ ° « 7 If playing baseball is labor, then carrying the hod must be a frivolous, method for frit- tering away time. e * The courts have held that singing in grand opera is labor. Sitting through a grand opera is also labor to a large class of people if they only would admit it. , Laboring under an impression that your team will win the pepnant is also high-class labor. Everybody works. m * 2 And there ts what is galled laboring under difficulties, as, for instance, cutting ice in summer, writing baseball in winter, trying to buy a $5 hat with $3.85, working in the same room with a fresh-air fiend who lowers the windows accordingly, as the thermometer lowers, etc., etc. 3 7 + + And we must not overlook that greatest of all labor problems which is called the labor of love. This is what the basebal] magnates are all engaged in. Roger Bresnahan says that the Feds were chasing him, while Steininger claifns that the Duke was a sadly disappointed man when he failed to land the job as manager of the ft. Louis Terriers. Steininger hints that Roger has a dog-goned bad memory. HENDERSON BEATS JORDAN IN CHECKER TITLE MATCH CHICAGO, Jan. 20.~—Hugh Henderson of Pittsburg last night won the Amer- ican checker championship when he de- feated Alfred Jordan, national title hold- er. The fifth and final game lasted four hours before Henderson was returned the winner with a mixed attack.

Ray Weed beat Patsy ee 15 rounds, Manchester, N. Ernest Mela 13. toe and ‘Tom Riley, Athletics will That Rough Work Will Not Be Tolerated. Rodowe Abeken, director of ath- letics for the Municipal League, an- nounced Wednesday morning that three players, who started a fight in Tuesday night’s games, had been sus- pended. Meyer of the North St. Louis Turn- ers and Dugan of the Bank of Com- merce five have been set down for two weeks, while Krueger, star for- ward of the North St. Louis Turners, has been suspended indefinitely. Krueger threw the ball at Referee Thomas Curing the quarrel. “The Municipal League will stand for no rough work on the part of the players,” said Abeken. “I have suspended this trio as a lesson to others, who might think they can ee away with tights from time to me.’ Three fast games were played by the teams of the Tuesday division of the Municipal Basketball League in the weekly triple header at the Police De- partment gymnasium. The opening contest was won by the Keen Kutters from the National Club. 36 to 22. Inasmuch as the last night's game was the inaugural appearance of the losers, they did well to hold down the league leading Keen Kutters. The Nationals replace the Southern A. C., which team was dropped for nonappear- ance on three successive occasions. The second game was the feature con- test of the evening. The play was bard from start to finish, the 20—19 vic- tory of the North St. Louis Turners telling the tale. The Scruggs five had a comparatively easy time ip the final game with the Crescent A. C, team, winning, 33 to 18. Coach George Keogan of St. University, stated that the Billiken basketball five would meet the Shurtleff College team of Upper Alton, at Meug- ge’s gymnasium, this Saturday night. Keogan anticipated the need of another game for his team before it meets the Washington University quintet a week from Saturday night. The squad is practicing daily and caprovang by large j. strides. Keogan also announced that the date of the second Piker-Billiken game Had been changed from Feb. 19 to 13, in or- der that it may be played on Saturday evening. Central Plays Soldan. This Saturday's Interscholastic League double-header at Louisiana Hall will bring together the McKinley and Yeat- man fives in the opening game and the Central and Soldan quints in the finai. Yeatman easily cefeated McKinley at the last meeting of the two teams. Central also defeated Soldan on the same night. As these two teams are now setting the pace in league they are expected to win easily, this week. The Principia Academy basket-ball five won a 45—18 victory over the McKinley High School second team on the Principla court yesterday afternoon. Forward Beckin and Capt. Kaw starred for the win- ners, the former landing 19 points, while Kaw scored seven field goals. The Harney Heights School League is the newest basket-ball organization to spring up. The first game was played Ay ype ee A after- noon, Team ‘A landing a 28—14 victory over Team — Louis: guch good men as HILE Freddie Welsh, Charley boxers are monopolizing the White and other well press-agented — lightweight championship limelight, Philadelphia boasts a young man whom his better advised rivals will all be sidestepping unless shay ‘want to do something more than tango at $2000 a tang. His name is Sam Robideau and, like many others who have gone be- fore him, he started out handicapped by the title “champion of the U. 8. navy.” Sam, however, has managed to survive this pugilistic jinx. a Tw ears ago, in this column, 5am was xploited and the suggestion advanced that his recent work seemed to entitle him to future prom- inence. Now Sam ° has ARRIVED. Monday night he performed the note- worthy achievement of knocking out Gilbert Galjant of Boston, one of the Say tat ieEn HEE acs defeated r m ne ee oan Leach Cross and Harry Stone. Has Beaten Several Stars. B’" that isn’t Sam’s case entirely. He has beaten Joe Shugrue in 15 rounds at Bridgeport, Conn., goon 18: he conceded several pounds to the Buffalo wonder, Jimmy Duffy, and three times held his own or won, he gave Willie Beecher 12 pounds and a royal trimming. In any other city than Phila- delphia, Robideau would have been on the championship m«ap with both feet. Apparently, it would have taken somebody bet- ter than Welsh or Shugrue to * nave dislodged him in that case. The best part about Robideau is that he’s a REAL lightweight. The writer undertook to find out definitely about this feature and received the following report from Philadelphia: Robideau is at his best at 133 pounds ringside. He knocked out Grover Hayes after weighing in at 128’pounds. He fought Joe Shugrue and beat him, weight 133 pounds, at 9 o’clock in the evening. Robideau's manager fight Gallant 133 pounds ringside, but the best his opponent would make was 135 pounds at 3 o'clock. Robideau then weighed in his under- wear and did not even move the beam. He is a natural lightweight, and as ‘he is fully mature, 22 years of age, it is not Mkely that he will ever crowd the 133-pound mark, while in fighting trim. Robideau is a pratege of Jack Mc- Guigan. He is said to be a boy abso- lutely without bad habits. That's the sort you can't keep down.
