BOSTON, Feb. 1.—The $2,000,000 residence of the late Henry H. Rogers, at Fairhavén, is being ripped to pleces.. House wreckers are tearing it apart and all its interior splendors are being sold for a mere trifle of what they cost. Mayor Curley of Boston has bought many of the magnificent fittings for a new home. He has obtained the dining room mahogany fittings, delicately carved huge white pillars of the reception hall and the white painted main starcase with mahog- any topped bannisters. The $1500 leaded glass windows brought $150. The $1000 chandelier FAILS TO AP P EAR in the dining room went for $100. Mahogany doors, which were in every one of the 85 rooms and which cost $125 each, were sold for $15 each. The house had 18 bathrooms, play rooms for children, bowling alleys and a kitchen large enough for a metropolitan hotel. “What will you realize on all the house?” the wrecker was asked. “Probably 2 per cent of its original cost,” he replied.

Rudolph Fischer, 48 years old, of 2707 was seriously last Nerth Grand avenue, wounded shortly after midnight night by a mysterious assailant who fired on him as he work as a machinist in a pit under a locomotive at the Wabash roundhouse, Hawk and Clayton avenues. The police think that who, on Oct. 16, fired three shots at him who, on Oct. 16, fired thre shots at him az he was at work in the Wabash yards, but are unable to discover the motive. Fischer was repairing a brake-shoe, assisted by Robert W. Lauber of 3848 McRee avenue, when both heard a shot and Fischer felt a stinging sensation in his right breast. He told Lauber he believed he had been shot. His chest was bared and a bullet wound discov- ered 1 Neither of the men saw the assailant. Henry Tompkins, a negro, employed at the roundhouse, said he heard the shot and saw a man run out of the round- house, but could not give a good descrip- tion of the man.

Freight Engineer Runs Past Warning, Four Cars Leaving Rails, The dynamiting of ice at Valley Park to protect bridges ana other property there caused a flood at Meramec High- lands today. At 2p. m. it was reported‘ that the river was 30 feet out of its banks, but the flood was at its crest. To add to the danger of serious dam- age in the neighborhood of the High- lands great blocks of ice were sweep- ing down the stream and piling up into dangerous floes which pressed in to- ward the shore, destroying docks and boathouses. Dynamite to Save Bridges. The dynamiting at Valley Park was done yesterday afternoon. It was feared that when a thaw came the breaking ice would be a menace to club houses and farm property and possibly would carry away bridges. Within: a short time after the ice In the dense fog which this morning continued to overhang St. Louis and SLrrounding territory, a man was prob- ably fatally injured by being run down by an-interurban car, a freight train was deraifed and there were several traffic accidents. The, two serious accidents occurred al- mest simultaneously, at about 9 o’clock, ™t Wann Tower, four miles south of Alton, where the Chicago & Alton and the Interurban tracks parallel each Other at a distance of a few hundred feet. Michael Murray, 40 years old, of 4012 St. Louis avenue, St. Louis, was walk- ing south on the car tracks. He is deaf and dumb, and did not hear a car ap- proaching from behind. The motorman, whose name is Crook, on account of the fog, did not see Murray until the car was almost upon him.

PETROGRAD, Feb. 1.—The Russians officially announce the occupation of Tabriz, Persia, in a communication from the staff of the Army in the Caucasus, The official statement says: “In the fighting below Tabriz the Turks lost four field guns, provisions, munitions and many prisoners. Hav- ing been cut off from. Tabriz and suffered heavy losses, they took to flight. On Jan. 30 we _ occupied Tabriz.”’ A communication issued last night by the general staff reports further prog- ress in Hast Prussia and desperate fight- ing on the left bank of the Vistula. In sians claim to have recaptured a trench lost to the Germans on the preceding day and declare that counter attacks of the Germans were repulsed everywhere except in one of the Russian saps. New Drive at Warsaw Li y- Russian military authorities "Seve that Field Marshal von Hindenbu planning another thrust at Warsaw, end that, In fact, he is already de- veloping a géneral attack along the Warsaw front. Especial significance is attached to the great violence with which the Germans are resuming their attacks in the Wyszogrod district at the junction of the Bzura and Vistula rivers and further south near Bolimow gradually extending their lines to--the northwest. The most» recents develop- ment in that section. is the raid across the frontier north of Tilsit where are German granaries containing large stores of rye, flax and brepdstuffs. | From the point of view of Russian staff officers, however, chief importance still attaches to the operations in the Carpathians, where the battle front is broken on account of the nature of the country. The detached engagements which are occurring at various points in the mountain passes and among the foothills southward are intended by the Russians to frustrate the evident desire of the Austrians.to carry the fight to the open plains of the Upper San.

A ROBBER DIES Edward Spilcker Was Shot When He Attempted to Search Jolin Emery. A warrant charging murder in the first degree probably will be isgued against Jack Emery, icevox saloon rob- ber, because of the death of Patrol- man Edward Spilcker; whom Emery shot on the evening of Jan. 10, at EBlev- enth street and Lucas avenue, Spilicker died in the city hospital at 2 p. m. yes- terday. Emery and his pal,-Fred Tracy, are prisoners at Police Headquarters. The policeman’s wound was of an un- usual sort, and deceived the surgeons, who thought at first that but one bul- let had enteréd his body. One bullet was removed from the patient's left side, and when he cdntinued to grow the second bullet. at the base of the spine. It had-entered. through the hole made by the first. The pullets were fired from an automatic pistol. A wife and two children, the older a boy 6 years old, and the younger 4a girl of 3 months,. survive Spilcker. His fam- ily was at his bedsi@e when he died. Spilcker’s funeral will be from the home, 1422A Farrar street, beginning at 1:30 p. m. Thursday. Buriel will be in Friedens’ Cemetery. Emery Exvresses Regret. Emery, when told of Spilcker’s death, became much alarmed for his own fate. He also expressed regret for the sor- row of the policeman‘s wife. He said he had served two penitentiary terms, and that the best he now could hope for would be Pnother long term, meaning that he would be in prison the rest of his life. , He said he shot the policeman in self- defense, after having ‘‘warned’’ him twice by commanding him to throw up The fact is, witnesses say, that Spilcker had not drawn his own revolver when Emery shot him, and that Emery would not have been harmed if he had submitted to arrest without a “gun play.” Emery and Tracy robbed a drug store at 1036 Rutger street Sunday, Jan. 10, and then walked to Union Market. Go- ing west from the market on Lucas ave- nue, they were stopped eat Eleventh street by Spilcker, who, with all other policemen, had been ordered to stop sus- picious characters and search them for weapons. : The shooting, and the flight of the two men, followed.

Schaper, president of the old company, who was named receiver after the bankruptcy petition was filed.’ Schaper would name no opening, date but said it would be soon: He said that the stock in the store on Washington avenue, which was appraised at $105,000 and bought in by attorneys for a little more than $102,000, was to be sold at the new place of*’business, and that he would have charge of the new store, at least until the directors of the new company held an election of officers. He did not state the personnel of the new company. As many former employes of the firm will be re-employed, as possible, he said. The store into which they will move was occupied by this firm prior to their moving to Washington avenue several years ago. Edward L.

This doesn’t mean that the club is about to pass out of existence or that it will soon be only an echo In this case ‘“‘twenty-three’’ is an omen of good luck. The Glen Echo Country Club has just 25 perpetual members, and they are for the club. Russell E. Gardner, one of the 23, this afternoon told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he and his fellow perpetual mem- bers are prepared to finance the club so that it may pay off its $85,000 indebted- ness and tee off on its own links in the early spring as though it had never Leen threatened with foreclosure. Each Paid $1000. The 23 paid $1000 each for perpetual membersHip, in the’ club in 1902. They are: Dr. J; Is. ogher, Gustave von Brecht, ‘G. A. Byer, D. I. Bushnell, Murray Carleton,'J. R.

In December the club defaulted on the payment of $56,000 in bonds, most of which are held by the Mississippi Val- ley Trust Co. The club also has about $29,000 of other indebtedness. Gardner today - said he had learned that efforts were being made to raise funds without consulting the perpetual members. “We helped out the club at a time when it needed money and we ought to have a chance to help it now.” he said. _ L. B. Woodward, president, and 8. T. G. Smith, secretary of a Reorganiza- tion Committee, have been most active in trying to raise funds to prevent fore- closure. Committee Appointed. The perpetual members appointed a committee consisting of Gardner, Ed- ward A. Faust, G. A. Buder, S. J. Har- baugh and W. F. Funston to Suggest a plan for refinancing the club.

Through a far-flung line of naval stations, Great Britain, he said, made the world’s shipping dependent upon her will, and through fortified points in Canada and island. possessions, controlled the entrance to the har- bors of the United States. “T invite you to take a map of thé world and follow my explanation,” said Dr. Dernburg. “Today, to com- mence at the North, the Baltic is bottled up by the English command of the sounds. The same is the case with the North Sea. It is locked in the north by British command of the Orkneys and the Shetlands; locked in the west by British command of the channel. The Mediterranean is con- trolled by the, possession of Gibraltar, Malta,. Suez and Cyprus. British pos- sessions on the coast of Africa are equally numerous. “Can Permit or Forbid Trade.” “On the way to China there is Cey- lon ang Singapore. On the coast of China you have Hongkong and Shanghai, which are practically Brit- ish, and Wei-Hei-Wei. In the South Sea there is British New Guinea, New Zealand, Fiji and the Tonga Islands. So Wat practically in all these seas Great Britain cam permit or forbid oversea trade. “Any nation engaged in mercantile shipping must take these things into ac- count, but for the United States there is a very special reason. The Panama Ca- nal is the main asset of the American overseas trade. “Now, while it is quite true that on the north there is the long Canadian frontier, that is in no way a danger to the United States, there are also in the north a number of coaling stations. They can and do control the entrance to American harbors. There you have St. John and Halifax within easy reach of New England.

Schneider, an attorney for the Union Electric Light and Power Co., living at the Buckingham Hotel and having his office in the Union Electric Bullding, Twelfth and Locust streets, was arrested this afternoon on a charge of forgery in the first degree. The arrest followed the issuance of an indictment by the December grand jury, which made its final report Sat- urday. The indictment charges that; Dec. 1 last, Schneider had in his possession 4 false and forged deed, purporting to convey to him property belonging to \John B. Rice of 1444 McCausland ave- nue.

Lubowitz opened a store on Missouri avenue, in Kast St. Louls. The active man in this company, | it was alleged, was J. L. Lubowitz,” who put his brother, Maurice, In charge as Clerk. .Greenfield came to St. Louis and opened a bank account here in the name of Milton B. Rosen- berg. Lubowitz, on the East Side, and Steinhardt in St. Louis, were confeder- ates, the Government alleges. Green; field was on the scene more or less dur- ing the entire period of operations, from October until the following June, and was said to have supervised the scheme to defraud through these two mercantile establishments. Steimhardt Told of Pian. Steinhardt, testifying previously be- fore a United States Commissioner, Phiiadelphia, after his arrest, stated he came to St. Louis, ran across Green- field, whom he previously had known, and was induced to go into the scheme the promise that 4 per cent of the proceeds would be his share. He said Sam Brown was to get 4 per cent and Greenfield 20 per cent. Lubowitz and Rotman, it was alleged, presum- ably were to share in like manner out of the returns from the other stores Greenfield was operating in like manner, as well as to receive a liberal salary. Suddenly, on June 20, 1913, after an im- mense quantity of goods had been dis- posed of both stores closed and the par- ties disappeared. Charles D. West, as- sistant manager of the adjustment bu- reau of the St. Louis Association of Credit Men, began an investigation when he found the shelves were filled with empty baxes, which appeared to have been specially made, and that less than $300 was realized on the entire out- fit left by the ‘‘merchants,”’ although it was estimated that about $120,000 worth of goods had been purchased by the two companies in the eight months preceding. Postoffice inspectors took up the case after West investigated it thoroughly, with the result that arrests were made simultaneously in many cities, where such concerns had been _ apereted and had “failed.” Horace L. Dyer, a son of Federal Judge Dyer, and Bernard Greensfelder appeared as counsel for the defendants. 22 POUNDS FOR $1.00. Best Eastern granulated sugar; | already arranged by Greenfield, upon}. ENOUGH NAMES ON REFERENDUM LS! TO DELAY PARKWAY edit) 40 Per Cent of’ Signhtures on Petitions Rejected, but * 3345 Are Accepted. Although nearly 40 per cent of the signatures to the parkway referendum petitions have been found to be fraud- ulent, the number of apparently genuine signatures will suffice to suspend the ordinance for another 30 days. This was announced today in the Election Com- missioner’s office, where the petitions have been under examination. The count today passed the 3014 mark, representing ‘two per cent of the city’s ‘{ voters, -required on the preliminary pe- tition. At ll a. m. it was announced that 3345 signatures had been accepted as genuine and 2189 had been rejected as fraudulent. This count embraced 124 petitions out of a total of 161. It is ex- pected that several more genuine sig- natures will be found on the remaining 37 petitions. In order to bring about a vote on the question, the opponents.of the parkway must, in the next 30 days, bring the to- tal of their genuine signatures up to five per cent of the total vote, or 10,549. This, it is believed, will prove a diffi- cult task. , The method of testing the genuineness of the signatures is by comparison with the voters’ signatures on Live poll books. Rv this test, some }etitions were iraudulently signed saad the top of the list to the bottom. On others, signa- tures apparently good alternated with fraudulent ones. A nickel a name was paid to the solic- iturs sent out by Patrick Fitz Gibbon, {c@per City Registrar, who obtained the numes. Each had to make affidavit to the correctness of his list. The law rrovides a punishment of $500 fine and six months in jail for fraud, and Pros- ecuting Attorney Sidener has announced that he will investigate the cases. List of 50 Names Throwna Out. One of the. lists which was thrown out in its entirety was collected. by a man who signed himself J: J. Roach. It bore the names of 50 men, of whom 46 are registered voters im Ward Seven- teen, Precinct Eleven, but none of the signatures appeared to be genuine. In- stead, it appeared that the printed list of voters had been copied by six men, who took turns writing the names. Six ditierent handwritings, recurring at fairly regular intervals, appeared in the list. One of the names signed was that of “P. Devan, 3209 Olive street.’’ It hap- pens that the name of the voter living there is P. Devore, but that by an error, the name appeared on the printed: regis- tration list as Devan. This is consid- ered conclusive evidence of fraud. M. Shaughnessy, one of the anti-park- way leaders, when asked who J. J. Roach was, said he was trying to. find out. FitzGibbon, he said, told him that he did not know Roach, but that Roach was recommended to him a& a precinct worker in the Seventeenth Ward, He received his 5 cents a name for all the signatures. The name of J. J. Roach does not appear in the official list of voters for the ward. Raider Easily Escapes.

They | Collective Bargaining Scheme Simply Absurd, John Mitchell Tells Federal Commission. NEW YORK, Feb. 1.—John Mitchell, § former president of the United Mine Workers of America, and’ now a mem- ber of the State Workmen’s Compensa- | tion Commission, today told the Federal Industrial Relations Commission that the Rockefeller plan of settling labor troubles in Colorado was “simply ab- surd.’ “No good can come out of such a pian,”’ said he. “The unorganized men can bé depended upon to select to rep- resent them only men the bosses want. may not be directly influenced to do this, but there will be an indirect influence which they cannot resist. ‘We have gone through such a thing before. The slogan, ‘We might as. well starve idle as starve working,’ will nat- urally be raised again just as it was dur- ing 1900 in the anthracite flelds.”’ Mitchell’s reference was to the plan of collective bargaining suggested to the Rockefeller interests by W. L.. Mac- kenzie King, former Commissioner of Labor of Canada, who was recently em- ployed by the Rockefeller Foundation to. conduct an investigation into industrial relations. Upholds Compensation Laws. Mitchell thaught tne referendum and ‘recall was of advantage to labor. Speaking. of compensation for work- men, Mitchell said it was effective in more ways than one. \“‘When,” said he, “it costs more to kill a man than it does to save him, the employers will save their workers.” Mitchell’ said that where men are un- organized the death rate is higher and the wage rate lower. “For instance,’ he said, ‘“‘the death rate in Colorado and West Virginia is about six per 1000. In other localities where the men are unorganized, they are inclined to take risks that organized men will-not take.’’ The witness said he didn't know, just hew much the “partial cortrol”’ cf financial interests over the industries has affected the workers. -It appeare, he said, that the financial institutions were able to ‘“‘control the _ situation’ He. cited as an example the settlement ot the anthracite coal strike of 1%” when J.

Poll Shows Supporters of Meas- ure Will Lack Necessary Two Thirds. By Wire From the Washington Be- seau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.—A poll of the House of Representatives taken by the Post-Dispatch correspondent indicates that the lower branch of Conzress. will refuse to pass the immigration bill over _the veto of the President. To do this it will require a two-thirds vote, or 283 out of the total membership of 43, if all | were present. According to the poll, 141 Democrats, 63 Republicans and 13 Progressives wil! vote to pass the bill over the Presi- dent’s veto, making a total of 217 votes. . Against this vote there will be 5S Democrats, 36 Republicans and 3 Pro-— gressives who will vote to sustain the action of the President, making a total! of 1%. There are 2 Democrats, 4 Republicans and 1 Progressive who are noncommit- tal. Besides this are % Democrats, W . Republicans and 3 Progressives absent from the city. , Will Be Called Up Thursday. The immigration bill will be called up in the House next Thursday. Repre- sentative Burnett of Alabama, chairman of the Committee on Immigration, in charge of the measure, last night pre- dicted that he would have a margin of six or eight votes to spare over the nec- essary two-thirds. Representative Sab- ath of Illinois and others who are fight- ing to sustain the veto assert that they will have a margin of W votes. A desperate fight is being made by Chairman Burnett and other advocates of the bill to hold their friends in line. It has been made ploén to Mr. Burnett within the last 10 days that the two- thirds he boasted of to paas his measure over the President’s veto has been breaking up. Senator Reed to Speak. / Congressmen who voted for the imm! gration bill urged Mr. Burnett to ca) up the bill immediately after the vet measure was received, but he said th. . many supporters were out of Washing- ton and could not be brought back in time for a vote. It is understood that many of the out-of-town Representa- tives who were expected to vote for the bill will not return by Thursday. The stayaway vote may kill the measure. Senator Reed of Missouri has. an- neunced he will speak in the Senate in support of the President's veto, pro- vided the opportunity is presented. n- ator Reed, who has opposed many of the administration measures, fought the ‘ immigration bill and was one of seven voting against it. 7 tefore the settlement of the strike. i MD a | See a “Blue: Birds” Tuesday, February 2d, 1915.

Director Zach again displayed his skill as-a program-maker by offer- ing a bill which was throughout “pop- ular’ in melody and rhythm, and yet was music of a high grade. The‘ list of dances included a gavotte in stately five-four time, played for the first time, which the audience insisted upon having repeated; a delicate “Air de Ballet,” by Massenet; “Three Hun- garian Dances,’’ by Brahms, which ex- hibited that giant of orchestration in one of his rare moods of relaxation; and the poetic tone-painting in waltz time, | “Tales From the Vienna Woods,” by Johann Strauss. The selection which the audience found most acceptable was the overture to “Martha,” by Flotow, embodying many of the familiar but never hack- neyed melodies of one of the most pop- ular of operas. The chief passages were played on the French horn. ee —— onan my ay be od hy bey oa Fmd eh ts ty he ey Sy ay A Ys A & ee ee ee ee ee | eal Baal Call Bal Lao ek ee ee ee ee any one to equal these values. ee Ml: Mele Re 7 as ‘ ci useage ——— oe — ~~= men. {4 Spools C orticelli Thread 25c SALE 100-yard 5 ydea. 10¢ Mae con a — worth 10c a vas. a ae sees oS ty Tucutay © ‘Bposis) Ap 6 yas. 7¥%ec Flannel- 24 f SMe wibdevne vbbids cvs (Main’ pee | (Basement.)

Material at Wholesale Cost ‘BRINGS BREAK IN ASSEMBLY FORCES Sponsor for Administration Measures in Senate to Oppose Proposed Law. By bei Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Feb., 1.—The fire insurance rating bill for Missouri, which has been attacked by Insurance Superin- tendent Potts of Illinois as being drawn “in the interests of the combine,” ap- parently is the measure which will bring about the long-expected break in the administration forces in the Senate and House, which so far have worked in harmony with the Governor. Senator John F. Morton of Richmond, who agreed to stand sponsor for several of Gov. Major’s measures, announced today that he would oppose the adminis- tration program of insurance legislation. He denounced the bill along much the same lines as did Supt. Potts. Morton said: “This rating bill is mis- named. It should properly be called ‘an act to enable the insurance companies to fix their own rates and invite litiga- tion thereon.’ If the Legislature passcs the bill, which I don’t believe it will, it will simply give the insurance com- panies a free hand in Missouri and the premium payers will be at their mercy. I for one am not ready to turn the State over to any private business, “IT notice that Insurance Superinten- dent Potts of Illinois says that the hand of the insurance combine can be seen in the report of the Insurance Commis- sion. I don't care who wrote the re- port or the bills. But I am interested in what the bills contain and what they propose to do. Something Underneath Verbiage. ‘The rating bill was the work of a master hand, but it contains some very beautiful language about the poyers the State will have, but if you study the mass 6f verbiage you will find some-. thing underneath the fine language. The bill really takes farther and farther away from the State the power of fix- ing rates. “Section 14 would be called a joker, if what it proposes was not so palpable. It gives the Insurance Superintendent power to make reduction of rates upon investigation. Then it invites litigation by providing for the fnsurance compa- nies to go to court and start the fight all over again upon the reasonableness of the reduction. The section then pro- vides that during all the litigation the companies shall charge the old rate, not the new rate, until the case is decided. Of course, there is provision made for the company to impound the excess premiums charged until final adjudica- tion. But can you ever remember of any company ever having to refund any- thing it impounds. “The utter absurdity of Missouri pro- posing to grant this is all the more striking when our neighbor State, Kan- sas, has recently had sustained in the United States Supreme Court its law that when 4. Pate is fixed by the State C ‘the tmgurance com- panies shall Wat rate and it shall be in often, until the court holds that it is unmreagOhable. Why should Missouri not be on at least an equal fc..ing with Kansas. The provisions relating to what the Insurance Commis- siener shall take into consideration in si fixing the rates, in my judgment, are bad, thoroughly bad, and inimical to the premium payer. In fact, if any legisla- tion is passed at all, it will have to be on a different basis than proposed in this bill which the insurance companies are backing.”’ Strong Opposition to Bill, Strong opposition has developed in both the House and Senate over the present form of insurance legislation. There is @ strong sentiment that the State should not be left without some recourse in event the insurance compa- nies should attempt to repeat. their threat of two years ago and walk our of the State. Sentiment is growing every day that the State should pass some form of an enabling act for State insurance. Mem- bers say they do not believe the State is ready to embark on State insurance yet, but they want to be ready, if the companies ever should leave again. The tnsurance program is one of the most important portions of the adminis- tration’s legislative program. The com- mission which prepared the bills was appointed by Gov. Major and made an expensive and lengthy study of insur- ance affairs. The first bomb which the administra- tlon encountered was the letter from Potts to Representative Watson de- nouncing the bill. Potts charged that the commissions report was written by an attorney for the insurance com- panies, and Saturday in an interview with a Post-Dispatch reporter charged that Edward F’. Goltra, a member of the commission, had attempted to influence Gov. Dunne of Illinois to adopt the Mis- souri report as the administration’s in- surance attitude in Dlinois. Gov. Dunne said that Goltra, accompanied by rep- resentatives of insurance companies, had called on him and discussed insurance but had not attempted to influence him. | | | i | | | 9 0 | ° IW | ° : : | : = | 20m — oO ORO _ es . 7% Hear the February Victor.

TWO | House, President Wilson’s friend and adviser, who sailed on the Lusitania yesterday, has been requested to make an unofficial report on the progress of war relief work in Europe and the con- dition of refugees. Reports have reached Washington lately which have indicated to some of- ficials that relief work has not been systematized to such an extent that as- sistance from this country, is being used to the best advantage. It is understood that the President is anxious to ascer- tain the facts and to assist if possible in relieving any weakness that may ex- ist in the relief system. The only sure way to get rid of dan- druff is to dissolve it, then you de- stroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. most, if mot all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more appli- cations will completely dissolve .and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dan- druff you may have. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop at once and your hair will be fluffy, lus- 'trous, glossy, silky and soft and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and never fails to do the work.—ADV. —_— 7 ae ed 5 ss Fe pe’ : 3 ; . on oe 2 Se hae Tig. ae 4 . we, ; oye ‘urniture reduced upwards to 4o%. ure at radical reductions. og ea All of our unequaled stock of Dining Room All of our huge stock of bedroom furni- All of our immense assortment of Uphol- tered Furniture of all kinds specially re- -..

RIFLE Kormer Millionaire | Murders Three Members of Family, Then Ends Own Life. —— YOU CAN’T BRUSH OR WASH OUT DANDRUFF Do this tonight, and by morning fine was imposed. may die tomorrow. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau Of.the Post-Dispstch, NEW YORK, Feb. 1.—Using a heavy, short-barreled magazine rifle, equipped with Maxim silencer firing so quietly that nobody knew of the quadruple tragedy until hours afterward, Herman Auerbach, early Sunday murdered his wife and his two daughters as they lay asleep. Then he stretched himself in his own bed beside that of his dead wife and blew his head into bits. He made no attempt to kill his 14- year-old son Lester, who was asleep in another room of the apartment at 386 Central Park West. No specific reason for this mercy has been found. The silencer of the large -aliber Winchester performed its function so well that even the boy, asleep a few feet from the two rooms in which the killing was done, did not awake to discover that inside of perhaps 60 seconds he had been robbed of father, stepmother and two’ sisters. Once rated as a millionaire real es- tate operator, Auerbach had suffered a financial decline in recent years. «sis deed was due, relatives and the police think, to derangement brought on by brooding over approaching penury. He left no letter to explain his deed, though he slipped a note under his son’s door telling the boy to notify his relatives. Forced to Sell Property. | Here is the list of those slain quietly in the seventh floor apartment in EIl- beron Hall, a building which Auerbach owned until his dwindling resources forced him to sell it one and a half years ago: : Mrs. Clair Auerbach, 34 years old, sec- ond wife of the slayer. Herman Auerbach, the slayer and sui- cide, 41 years old, son of David Auer- 2% West 112th st. Beatrice Auerbach, 18 years old, a stenographer; Auerbach’s older daugh- tet through his first wife. Daisy Auerbach, 16 years old, a clerk younger daughter of Auerbach through his first wife. ; Those in the apartment who were per- mitted to sleep undisturbed were: Lester Auerbach, 14 years old, a stu- dent in De Witt Clinton High School; scn of the suicide by his first wife. | Lottie Schliep, 21 years old, the maid. Bought Gun Nine Days Ago. Nine days ago Auerbach boldly brought home the rifle and the silencer. At that time he and his family were in despair over the retrieval of his lost position, and his two daughters had ob- tained work to increase the slender fam- ilv income. Auerbach almost gayly exhibited the deadly weapon. He told Mrs. Auerbach and the children that the rifle was soon to end all their troubles, but in a happy way. “I have interested capitalists in the manufacture of a rifle like this, equipped with a silencer,’ he said. “We're going to make a fortune out cf it. I'll buy back this house and you girls can soon give up your jobs.”’ EDITORS VISIT DUNNE IN BEHALF OF THOMAS WEBB East St. Louisan Indorsed for Illinois Supreme Court Judgeship by Newspaper Men.

Evenings 1 Reis Piano Co. 005 Olive St. , Open - | Victor Dealers Evenings Be Bought Only Where Ar- rangement Is Made. By Associated Prass. WASHINGTON, Feb. Bryan issued this statement: “No nation has protested against the passage of the shipping bill and it is not likely that any nation will or would sihce the bill does not ne- cessarily raise any diplomatic ques- tions. “It is not proper for the State De- partment at this time to discuss the manner in which the authority con- ferred by the bill will or should be exercised. We assume that the au-° thority conferred on the President and those who will be associated with him fn the matter will be exer- cised properly and with a due regard to the nation’s welfare.’ In administration sources close to with belligerents in Europe. Trouble te Be Avoided. President Wilson and administration could be trusted not to do anything to involve the United States in international trouble. ' Friends of the President stated today that it could be taken for granted that no ships of belligérents bought unless satisfactory arrange- ments were made. Great Britain and France have given the American Government their views on changes of registry in connection with various phases of the question that have developed since the outbreak of the war, with the seizing of the Brindilla, and the purchase of the Dacia, which has sailed from Galveston on @ test voyage, with a noncontraband cargo, for a neutral port. But,,jin ac- cordance with diplom&tic owas the State Department does not consider that anything that may have been said by foreign governments in special cases of transfer of flag or on the general subject applies to the purposes of the pending bill because the United States Government would be a party to the transaction, whereas in all previous cases considered private individuals alone have figured. While no formal expressions have come from Great Britain or France or Russia, it is believed in many well informed quarters that an equal dis- tribution of the American’ Government's purchases amvung British, French, Ger- man and Austrian ships would not meet with serious objection by the belliger- ents. While there is a general reticence on the part of the Government offi- cilals te reverl their plans, there is good reason to believe that the United States Government may never actually buy belligerent ships, though maintaining her right to do so if desired. To admit any amendment to the present bill re- stricting the President from purchasing belligerent ships, according to State Department officials, would set up a legal precedent that might embarrass the United States as well as other neu- tral governments in the future, Will Net Surrender Rights. The Washington Government, it may be stated on the highest authority, con- fident of its rights under international law, does not. intend to surrender its right to bestow the American flag on its own private vessels, bought after the outbreak of hostilities, if the trans- action is in every sense proved to be of a bona fide character. In urging an unrestricted right on the part of the Government to buy ballig- crent as well as neutral ships, it was stated by administration officials it is heped to prevent neutral. ships from being offered at virtually prohibitive prices. The case of the Dacia, while different from that of purchases proposed by the bill in.so far as the, American Govern- ment would become a party to the trans- action under the proposed law, is, never- theless, a test of the right of change of flag after the outbreak of hostilities. Great Britain admittedly has declared many such changes as legal, and her ruling in prize court on the Bacia cage will constituée an important precedent on which other Governments will argue in the future.

The rest were spurious, frauds or forgeries. Nor is the character of the opposition deter- mined solely by the percentage of spurious names on the lists. The character of the opposition leadership is exposed by the method adopted of obtaining names. ‘ They did wot go out and seek honest opponents of the Central Parkway; nor did they seek the co-operation of honest opponents of the Parkway to obtain the signa- tures of other honest opponents of the Parkway —they bought names. Having plenty of money and a contempt for public opinion, sound public policy, public morals and decency, they hired agents and cffered them 5 cents a name. They tempted their agents and solicitors to commit fraud and forgery by putting a premium They got what they paid on fraud and forgery. for—names, largely fraudulent. The character of the opposition Is now known ‘as a combination between selfish reactionaries who would sacrifice progress to unearned profit, the mercenaries and the riff-raff who have no interest in St. Louis. The signatures to initiative and referendum petitions should represent sincere and deliberate opinion. It might be wise to have the petitions signed, -as votes are cast, at designated places and received by public officers. The Parkway referendum petitions are a dis- grace to direct legislation wholly apart from the question of criminal acts in connection with them. a Le a — — A TIMELY REMINDER. Whatever else it may accomplish, the Federal] Industrial Relations Commission, headed by Frank Walsh of Missouri, has forcibly reminded Amer- ica’s industrial captains that the plain people still own the Government, and through that Govern- ment can curb industrial tyranny wherever it may be attempted.

The President is not urging the creation of a national merchant marine to gratify a personal or political whim. He is not doing it solely to meet the existing shortage in overseas shipping and the consequent high rates. Back of these causes, in themselves sufficient, is. a possibility—-some acute observers deem it a probability—that urz- ently enforces the demand forsa sure means of setting American exports to foreign markets un- der the American flag. This contingency is stat- ed in the following excerpt from an Atlantic sea captain's letter to this paper: You will readily understand that the called emergency in shipping, up to the pres- ent time, is nothing compared with what,it would become should a small squadron of ~ s0- German battle cruisers get by the British fieet and reach the Nortg Atlantic trade routesa This undoubtedly was the main ob- ject of the dash which they attempted to make last Sunday morning. You may be very sure they were not bound upon amy east coast of England bombarding expedition. I anticipate that from now on they will continue attempts to reach the Atlantic,-and when they do there will be anywhere from 100 to 300 British cargo ships sent to the bottom within a week to 10 days. Such an event would paralyze the sea commerce of the world. We ought to prepare for it—must begin at once to prepare for such an emergency. The only way to do it is to pass the Presi- dent's shipping bill-at once, so that the Gov- érnment may place orders to the full capacity of our Atlantic coast and Great Lakes ship- yards, and as quickly as possible. Today almost the only ships available to carry American goods to European or South American markets are ships flying the flags of the allied nations. If these in any considerable number be suddenly swept off the sea, our principal foreign absolutely—unless we have ready, in time, an American fleet to earry , the goods. ; | | It is well for the people to understand the exact significance of the Republican Senators’ ring opposition to thy President's Amer- bill. ett aterne, _ct : et a oi. —_—— a 4 ah —e lhe - ou Pete Be ei aoe : \ "if a).

He would have liked to kiss her portrait! Somewhere in the village, the pro- fessor remembered, he had seen the sign of a man who made a business of exterminating insects and other pests. He finally located this man. If. the fulleless professor had been an expert physiognomist, he would have noted that the rat-catcher’s eye resembled that of some of his ferrets. However, he stated his missiop . “Hum! ha! muttered the man. “One mouse? Tell you’ sir, we might be a menth finding him. Coyldn’t think of bothering with the case under $14 Do our best for that. Rid the premises if possible.”’ The professor handed out the money. “Further, sir. I'll guarantee the job on a basis of $1 for each mouse caught over 10.”’ ‘Very well,” agreed the professor. Two weeks later Prof. Fenn received a bill for ‘39 extry mice, job done neatly and guaranteed,’’ and paid it. Along; too, came a note from Miss Fetzer. She thanked the professor for clearing her premises of those an- noying pests. Nearly 50 mice found! But, thank goodness! she was now rid of them, She hoped the professor would pass his coming vacation in his home town. Which he did, and that was the be- ginning of regular calls on the lady who so interested him. Each time he visited the house, slyly, from some erratic whim, the professor moved the two portraits nearer and nearer together. He Learns His Fate. NE day he found out that he C) had been neatly tricked by the subtle rat-catcher. The latter had played successfully on the fears of Miss Fetzer. He had, in fact, caught just one mouse. The balance were felt dummies, which he showed her, but she shriekingly refused to inspect them closely. The professor told Miss Fetzer of the incident and laughed. She was relieved to think that, after all, there was only one tiny mouse to get scared at. That especial evening the professor determined to learn his fate. They. were conversing casually, when he. pointed to the mantel. He had moved the portraits nearer and nearer, until they were only a few inches a,..rt. “I moved those pictures, according- ly as each of my visits seemed to bring me nearer to you, Miss Fetzer,” he observed. His hostess blushed, showing that had progresed. He drew his chair closer to her own, and she did not seem to object. _' “Now, how do you think they really belong?” he submitted. ‘‘Won’t you show me? Shall we say this way?” and he deliberately moved them di- rectly side by side. “T—I like to see them yes,” she fluttered, shyly as schoolgirl. “Let you and I follow their exam- ple,” suggested the professor, grown bold and happy all in a flash, and he drew her to a true lover’s embrace.

It may be remembered that. last spring it was predicted that the Bal des Crinolines would sound a new note in the fashion world. It was a decided- ly new and daring note when one re- members the tight skirts then worn, but with malice of forethought the new note was sounded to be sounded again and ‘again, louder each time, until now we not only are wearing our skirts quite as wide as did the belles of 1830, but, little by little, are other features of this period being introduced. At any rate, there is hardly a doubt but that this period was chosen by the French designers to be the inspiration for the spring styles. In the Fashion Fete were exploited several designs of this period that were exceedingly ugly. So it is to be hoped that moré beauty can and will be introduced by spring.

Someone is knocking at the door,” she said. “Good evening!”’ said a cheery voice, and a gir) dressed irf white came into the room. Her dress looked like the snow, all sparkling with little crystals, and her nair fell over her shoulders like spun gold. She hurried to the fireplace and touched the dying fire with a bright staff she carried in her hand. The fire blazed and warmed the room. Then she touched with the same staff the woodbox that stood beside the fire- place and it was filled with wood. Next she went to the closet and filled all the shelves with food and when she started toward the door the house was comfortable, and there was food enough to lastgsome time. *‘Who are you?” asked Hans, who had been watching this shining creature with wondering eyes. “I am the Fairy of Faith,’’ was the reply. ‘You will do well to profit by the example Gretchen set you, and have a little more faith,” and with these words she went and closed the door. “This is all very well,’’ said Hans the next day, when he and Gretchen were sitting by the fire after a good dinner, “but where shall we get more when this is gone?’ “Oh, I hope the winter will soon be over now,’’ said Gretchen, ‘‘and the sum- ‘mer will not be so hard for poor folks.” HANS planted his garden when the spring Came, but the rain came also, and one day he sat grumbling in you hoped for?’ he asked. ‘All the vegetables will be spoiled, and we shall starve this winter.” “Do try to look on the bright side,” replied Gretchen. “I hope thé sun will come out soon, and then you will see we shall have plenty and to spare this win- ter.”’ : But Hans would not see anything but disaster ahead, and that night he ate his supper in silence, with a very black- looking face. “Someone is knocking at the door,” said Gretchen. “It is the wind,” replied Hans. ‘‘Who would be out in this rain?’’ But the knocking came again, and Hans opened the door.

In the letter McGuigan tells Westhus that Robideau is a legitimate 133-pound man and will not have any difficulty doing the figure.

Is one saying to the other: ‘Bill, if you’d play back a little to the left on that-guy you’d have a set-up every time he comes to bat?’ Nix. He’s whis- pering: ‘Say, Bill, fix your lamps on that iridiscent dream in the box, next to the second post. Some flapper, eh?’ — the recollection of a sturdy young Georgetown University athlete whom be knew had made such a mark and long before Kelly. That was Arthur Duffey, probably the most consistent sprinter that ever did better than even time. Duffey’s name and his wonderful performances have ceased to be part of the official A. A. U. record, he having transgressed quite as grievously, or more so, than the whitewashed Platt Adams. But the fact that he was the great- armory could be used. The Tigers could not come here on the earlier date as the indoor meet of the Kansas City A. C. would conflict with it. March 6 was turned down as Coach Brewer thought this was too close to the dual meet with Kansas University, which occurs on the 13th of the month. An official of the club stated this morning that the club would instead hold an open meet on one of the two dates. However, he said that he thought the C. A.

While Callahan has a draw with Mandot and a knockout of Joe Rivers to point to as evidence of his ability, it is believed that he will do well to survive this bout without taking a beating. Solsberg Below Weight. Johnny Solsberg, the hard-hitting and clever bantamweight fighter, who meets Dutch Brandt here Tuesday night, dis- proved rumors that-he is taking on too much weight for.the bantamweight di- vision by scaling 114% pounds here yes- terday. . At that rate he will be conceding a few pounds to Brandt in their match here tomorrow night at the Future City A.’ C. Solsberg reported in fine shape and entirely over an injury to his thumb, which is said to have prevented his scheduled meeting with Champion Kid Williams some months ago. On that occasion Brandt substituted for Sols- berg on two days’ notice and gave Willlams a terrific battle. Brandt, if he beats Solsberg, will prob- ably be matched for a show date in February at the Coliseum, with Frankie for money players, say, just mention a bonus or a world’s series cut-in to a married man and you have his attention for life.
