LEXINGTON, Ky., Feb. 8.—One of the old-fashioned surprise parties, planned by friends: of a Lees County bride, turned out rather more surprising than usual Saturday. As a result, 10 young women members of the party are at their homes with gunshot wounds, while William MelIntosh, father of the bride, is in jail charged with felonious assault. McIntosh, who is a. wealthy farmer, lives in a large house, somewhat back from the road, and has been. much troubled of late by serenading parties of young men, a favorite hill-country form of amusement more cistinguished by vigor than delicacy. McIntosh jumped to the conclusion that the surprise party. was another visit dow and demanded that the party go. He was not understood, so he fired into the party with a double-barreled shot- gun.

Prominent citizens of St. Louis Coun- ty today testified before Judge McEl- hinney at Clayton as to the strong public sentiment against Beverly C. Ste- vens, former Clayton real estate deal- er, who is under indictment on several charges of embezzlement by fraudulent manipulation and duplication of deeds of trust. Stevens himself invited this inquiry when he asked for a change of venue on the ground that sentiment against him was so strong that be could not hope for a fair trial in St. Louis Coun- ty. He was in the courtroom today and heard the witnesses tell of the feeling against him. Trust Company of St. Louis County and receiver of the Stevens properties, testified that there is much unfavorable feeling against Stevens. Priest Is a Witness. Hereford said John Osgenfort, a Clay- ton lawyer, had told him that in his opinion Stevens was “not. entitled to a. trial.” The Rev. Joseph Tettemer, pastor of a Catholic church at Pine Lawn, testified that if he were summoned as a juror in the case he would decline to serve be- cause of his prejudice against Stevens. Father Tettemer said John Malone, one of his parishioners, had expressed the opinion that Stevens “‘ought to get % years."" Another parishioner, named Harrison, he said, told him he thought Stevens ‘‘ought to be hung.’’ The priest algo quoted a man named Benson as saying he ‘“‘wanted to kill Stevens.” He also said a Mrs. H. H. Mueller of Pine Lawn had been strong in her condemna- tion of: Stevens. Reporter Tells of Publicity. Joseph McAtee, an attorney, said he believed Stevens could not have a faix, trial in St. Louts County. * “~~ | - J. W. MeAlister, a reporter for the Post-Dispatch at Clayton, was ques- tioned as to the publicity which had beén given to Stevens’ failure. He testified that the Post-Dispatch had printed the first account of the fail- ure and that this account and subse- quent ones were widely disseminated owing to the fact that the Post-Dis- patch has a very large circulation in St. Louis County. He said he bélieved there ‘was strong sentiment against Stevens. WOMAN CAUSES ARREST Of FORMER STATE SUPREME JUDGE WEBB CITY, Mo., Feb. 8—Waltour M. Robinson, former Justice of the State Supreme Court, was arrested here this morning on a charge of disturbing the peace of Mrs, Lydia Willis, an employe in a restaurant, who objected to re- marks to her by Judge Robinson.

ARE BEGUN IN TRIAL nesses to Strengthen Case Against Defendants. limited to 50 minutes for each side. The Government, rebuttal, duced four witnesses in maining defendants, Samuel Bernstein, Harry A. Cohen,.all of Philadelphia. field, self-admitted ‘brains’ leader of the “Bankruptcy Trust,’’ who, cupied the witness stand the first three days of the trial, was placed upon the witness stand again. He testified, in rebuttal, that Cohen and Goldber loaned him $1000 with which he bought out the interest of Adolph Muscovitz in the reat Western Jobbing louse, 609 North Broadway. The defense made no effort to ye this testimony, and did not cross-exam- ine Greenfield. Greenfield and five asso- ciates pleaded guilty during the progress of the trial. Muscovitz, he had testified, sold out because Greeneld would not agree to incorporate the business and run it “on the square.”’ Credit Man a Witness. C. D. West, assistant manager of the Adjustment Bureau of the St. Louis Credit Men’s Association, and Postof- fice Inspector Fank Smith testified that Goldberg, in Philadelphia, Aug. 7, 1913, had admitted to them that the books of the Pennsylvania Commission Co., op- erated by Cohen and Goldberg, would not show the firm's dealings with the Great Western Jobbing House, “Goldberg, they testified, toid them he and Cohen, upon dissolving partnership, and agreed to tear from their records the pages relating to their transactions with Greenfield. After this dissolution Cohen became Greenfield’s partner in the Pennsylvania Salvage Co., in Phil- adelphia, subsequent to the rapid-fire failure of five of Greenfield's concerns in four cities within four months. A negro elevator man, employed in the building housing the Great Western vbbing House, identified Cohen and Goldberg as the men he saw in the ureat Western office three or four days before the Great Western ‘‘failure,’ June 22, 1913. That. day, he said, 23 or 25 cases of merchandise were delivered at 11 a. m. on the third floor of the building. He said they were not opened, but were readdressed and reshipped two hours later. In closing the defense, depositions of character witnesses weré read, and oth- er depositions introduced in Bernstein and Lippman’s effort to substantiate their contention that they had “tipped off” Greenfield's connection ‘with the Great Western Jobbing House to job- bers and credit agencies. Greenfield had posed in 8t. Louis as “Miiton B. Rosenberg,” a name also used by two of his associates at the same time. Said Lippman Had “Squealed.” There was consideravie amusement in the courtroom when William Skarloff’s deposition was read. Skarloff, a .« .il- adelphian, is a brother-in-law of Gree field, the self-admitted ‘‘brains’”’ anf ringleader of the “Bankruptcy Trust.” Skarleff, in the deposition, testified thai Greenfield once told him that Lippman was the only man who had “squealed” on him, and that he would have been worth $50,000 if it had not been for Lipp- man. It has been apparent at the trial that there was considerable animosity between Greenfield and Lippman. Skariloff was in Bernstein and Lippman’s store in Philadelphia one day to purchase two sweaters for some children, when he got to talk- ing with Bernstein and Lippman about Greenfield. Bernstein and Lipp- man, he said, told him of their hav- ing been “stung” in the failure of Bros., Greenfield's store at Carlisle. Thereupon Skarloff said: “He even beat me, his brother-in- law, for $9.42. Greenfield wrote me and asked me to send him a keg of herring. “I sent it. It was for $9.42. He knew he was going to fail and he thought he'd sting me for the. herring.” - Asked for Pay for Herring. When Lippman told Skarioff he was going to St. Louis to look up Greenfield, Skarioff told him to remind Greenfield to send him a check for $9.42 for the herring. ‘ / Charles V. Weinert, representing R. G. Dun in Philadelphia. in a deposi- tion, said he met Bernstein and Lipp- man onthe street several times, and that in June, 1913, they told him of Greenfield's connection with the Great Western Jobbing House. Abe M. Ellis, a Philadelphia jobber. in a deposition, said Bernstein, in May or June, 1913, telephoned him to come to Bernstein & Lippman’s, and upon arriving there, a box of stock- ings was shown to him which the firm had purchased from the Pennsylvania Commission Co. operated by Goldberg ' and Cohen. 7 OF SWINDLE CASE Testimony in the ‘“‘Bankruptcy Trust” trial was completed at noon today be- fore Judge Pollock in the Federal Court, where. the hearing had been going on for seven days, and in the afternoon counsel began arguments which the Court had intro- in an effort to strengthen its case against the four re- Jacob Lippman, Alfred Goldberg and Charles L.

Thomas Has No Right to Complain of Result of His Teaching. ‘‘A man who teaches his wife to drink has ho right to complain if she begins to drink too much,” said Judge Hen- nings in the Circuit Court today, in de- nying a divorce to F. W. Thomas, who had brought suit against his wife, Lil- lie on the ground of excessive drinking. Mrs. Thomas testified that for 10 years after she was married in 1901, she never drank, but that her husband kept urg- ing her to, and when she would atempt to take soft drinks, he would put whis- ky in them without her knowledge. The; separated Aug. 9, 1914, while living at The Judge stated that, under ordinary circumstances, he would grant a divorce upon the evidence, but that he could not for the reason that the testimon:’ showed that Thomas had taught his wife to drink, and therefore had no right to complain nc en the result of his teaching.

BURGLARS WORK ON SAFE TILL THEY ARE EXHAUSTED Fail to Get $406 After 3reaking Into Kroger Store in Web. ster Groves, Burglars exhausted themselves in an effort to break open the safe in the Kroger grocery store on Gore avenue in Webster Groves last night. The safe contained about $400, but the burglars failed to get it. The safe was carted from the front of the store into a back room. Marks showed that the burglars first used crowbars to break off the knobs, and afterwards attempted to blow it ,with an explosive. J. S.. Benson and his family, living upstairs over the grocery store, did not hear the explosion. The burglars broke into the store through the heavy oak doors in the rear, using crowbare to force them. Apparently the burglars worked until they tired themselves out. The safe is about three feet high and two and one-half feet wide. —— = Wndeaver 24 Years O14. ‘forced into precipitate retréat.

The Governor has hot worked for the appropriation, he said, because it would look as though he wanted the State to furnish him with a special train, but he is free to say that he is much in favor of it. After the State has spent $150,- 000 on a State building, he does not think that it should stand back when it comes to providing for suitable partici- pation in Missouri day’s celebration. The brass band would be a 40-piece affair and the printed matter would con- sist of 25,000 copies of the State Labor Department’s report, showing Missouri's advancement and resource’. The Gov- sawe to the Admiralty war received Sat- urday morning, when the big liner was off the Irish coast. The Stars and Stripes was then run up and the liner went yn to Liverpool. From Birmingham the press associa- tion has received information corrobor- ating this report. The dispatch says: “Passengers from the Lusitania who arrived here Sunday state that when off the coast of Ireland the Lusitania re- ceived a wireless from the Admiralty that it was to hoist the American flag. It did. so and sailed under that flag to Liverpool.”’ Ambassador Page today forwarded to the State Department at Washington a report on the Lusitania flag incident. The Ambassador informally reviews the alleged use of the American flag by the Cunard liner on entering Liverpool har- bor Saturday morning, as was related to the members of the embassy staff by Americans who had crossed the At- a belligerent to ascertain the char- acter of a merchant vessel and cargo before capture. Germany has no right to disregard this obligation. To destroy a ship, noncombatant crew and cargo, as Germany an- nounced her intentions of doing, is nothing less than an act of piracy on the high seas. Feouse Reports to Page. Col. E. M.

Upon inquiry being made by the Ambassador in London, the Britis: Board of Trade intervened in virtue of its authority In matters of shipping an’! navigation-and I am just informed that the line in question has been constrained to adopt another distinctive house flag.” In May, 1913, the American Minister to Brazil brought to the notice of the Bra- villian Government the fact that a Bra- zilian line of sailing vessels was using a house flag resembling one of the forms of the national ensign of the United States. The complaint was referred to the Navy Department of Brazil and the American Minister was subsequently tn- formed that the Brazilian firm owning the vessels in question had o an- érnor expects all his Colonels to go along in all their gold-braided glory and help him impress California and all the states between here and there with the majesty of' Missouri.

CLUB LAUNCHES BOOK SCHEME BENEFIT Ancient Device for Raising Money Put Into Operation by Professional - Compilers of “Men of Affairs” tolumes. Men of prominence in St. Louis, espe- cially those known or reputed to be wealthy, may expect, in the next few days, to be called upon by solicitors who will ask them for their photographs and the story of their lives, for publica- tion in a volume to be entitled “Men of Affairs,’’ for the Press Club of &t. Louls has launched the ancient “book scheme’ to raise money. Promoters of the scheme are profes- sional solicitors for this form of “write- up” publicity. They go from city to city compiling books of this sort for a profit. In the present instance they induced the directors of the Press Club to lend the name of the club to their enterprise, “Numerous dead and wounded cov- “bred the battlefield.

Naval officers recalled that the navy regulations permit a warship to fly an- other flag than its own, but specifically previde it must be hauled down, and the ship’s own flag must be hoisted be- fore a shot is fired. There are many incidents in naval history, where that has been done, the latest being the Ger- man sea rover Emden, which kpisted the Japanese flag just before making a dar- ing raid at Penang. It was recalled in naval circles that when Capt. Glass, commanding the cruiser Charleston on his way to the Philippines with a convoy of troops, stopped and captured Guam, he ordered the Japanese flag to be flown on his flagship and on the ships of his flotilla. He signalled this message to the steam- ers Australia, Peking and Sydney, mer- chant ships under charter to the Gov- ernment and in use as troop ships: “Passing signal station at Guam, lantic on the vessel. Foreign Office Statement, The following statement in regard to the incident was issued by the Foreign Office: The use of a neutral flag is, with- in certain limitations, well estab- lished in practice as a ruse de guerre. The only effect in the case of a merchantman of wearing a flag oth- er than her national flag, is to com- pel the enemy to follow the ordinary obligations of naval warfare, and satisfy himself as to the national- ity of the vessel, and the character of her cargo by examination hefore capturing her and taking her into a prize court for adjudication. The British Government has al- ways considered the use of the Brit- ish colors by foreign vessels legiti- mate for the purpose of escaping capture. Such practice not only in- volves no breach of international law, but is specifically recognized by the taw of this country in the mer- chant shipping act of 1894, In instructions to British Consuls in 1914, it is said:. ‘“‘A ship is liable to capture if a British character is improperly assumed except for the purpose of escaping capture.’ | As we have in practice not objected to foreign merchant vessels using SSO s EBA ie H ’ “as Aap ‘> a. 2 raats LORE PP AAI HK I i King’s Highway Neighborhood.

Count Zeppelin, the interviewer stated, lately visited a seacoast base, to ex- amine the Zeppelins which returned from the English raid, and to talk with members of their crews. When asked whether a raid on London was planned, he said the question was one for the admiralty and the géneral staff to de- cide.

Two Hebrew churches, Temple Israel and the United Hebrew Congregation, are in the district. Dr. Leon TWarrison, rabbi of Temple Israel, said he had been appointed to the com- mittee “as being presumably in sympa- thy with the movement,” but that he knew nothing of what was planned.

IN COUNTY BURNS Moore Residence, at Price and Clayton Roads, Destroyed; Hole Cut to Take Piano Out. ENGINES DRAIN CISTERN Crowd Rushes to Scene in Autos From Country Club and Houses in the Vicinity. Som Plant, Edward M. Flesh, Dwight F. Davis and George Randolph were among the well-known residents of St. Louls County who served yesterday 28 volunteer firemen, when the 14-room frame residence 9f John Moore, south- western agent of the General Fire Ex- tinguisher Co., at Price and Clayton roads, burned. Waiters from Busch’s Grove aided the wealthy fire-fighters, and $00 spectators, a number of whom mo- tored from the Country Club, watched the spectacular blaze. “We saved the trees,’ Plant remarked after the firé, pointing to some fine oaks standing near the shell of the ruined residence. Beside the trees, a $1000 grand piano and a large oak china cabi- net, with its contents, were saved. A number Of paintings and some highly valued fur rugs, bought from the Rus- sian fur exhibit at the Alaska-Yukon- Pacific Exposition in'Seattle a few years ago, were destroyed. Loss Is Pat at $30,000. Moore estimated his loss at $30,000, and said his insurance was $26,000. The fire extinguisher which he sells is an auto- imatic sprinkling device, adapted to fac- tories and warehouses, but not to resi- dences. The house, which stands on a seven- acre tract, was built by Tom P. Bar- nett, the architect, for his own use, and was sold to Moore five years ago. The furnace was protected by asbestos coverings, and Moore does not under- stand how the fire could start from tho overheating of the furnace. Moore and his wife, with Mrs. Moore's mother and sister, were walking about the premises after dinner, about 2:8) p. m., when a passing motorist called to them that smoke was coming from their cellar window. The women hurried to Busch’s Grove, and telephoned to the 8&t. Louis and University City fire depart- ments, while Moore began an attempt to use chemical fire extinguishers on the blaze in the basement. Autos Bring Many to Scene. LOLOL ELL Ie TT ?

Flannery, president of a Pittsburg com-. Pany which produces more radium than any other concern in this country, has come back to Washington to oppose the administration bill, the purpose of which is to reduce the cost of radium to hospitals which use it in the treat- ment of cancer. In a statement he attacked Dr. Joseph A. Holmes, directog of the Bureau of Mines, charging him with not keeping good his promise to produce radium at one-third the present cost. “The Radium King,” with a corps of press agents, opened his batteries last night. “Dr. Holmes has not only failed to do this, but it has cost the Government at least 20 per cent more to produce the $11,000 worth of radium recently exhibited in the House, than the pres- ent market price,’’ Flannery said. ‘‘The statement of Dr. Holmes that hé would furnish radium to the public so much more cheaply has prevented many physicians and surgeons from purchas- ec RE | WAS RUN DOWN, NERVOUS AND WEAK Cause?

One of them, Joe 4 Kartye. lost all his belongings in a fire at Busch’s Grove the night before, and he was one of the most energetic and daring of the fire fighters. He went to the upper floors of the smoke-filled house and tried to save fine dresses in Mrs. Moore’s wardrobe, but was unabivw to find them in the smoke. - George Randolph, a neighbor, was one of the first to arrive in an automobile. He carried chemical fire extinguishers, ‘which he used through the basement windows. When the extinguishers were emptied he sent his chauffeur back to refill them. Firmen Pump Cistern Dry. Engine Company 62 and Hook and Lad- der 18 arrived from King’s highway and Clayton road and the University City fire department also appeared. A cistern was soon pumped dry and then a pipe line had to be run 900 feet to a pond. Henry Busch and John O’Gorman set ‘themselves to the task of getting out the grand plano, and they cut around with axes, until they were able to re- move the instrument. The china cab- inet was taken out so carefully that not one of the dishes in it was broken... But in saving these articles, men walked back and forth over the fur rugs, ap- parently without thinking to pick them up. One of them was a silver-tip Rus- sian black bear skin, valued by Moore at $600. The family sewing . machine, however, was carried out, and a bed was taken from the second floor.: The large playhouse. Furn Fhe fire went up through the walll te the roof sc that the work inside soon had to be abandoned. Three hours after the firemen had ceased their efforts, the fire in the furnace was seen burn- ing brightly. The firemen, regular and volunteer, adjourned to suéch’s after the house was abandoned, and Plant told the city and University City firemen that he and his neighbors, members of the Clayton Road Improvement Association, would do something to show appreciation of their work. “ACTOIDS”" ACT ACTIVELY. “ACTOIDS” Cure Constipation.

Possibility of Manufacturing Such Articies in America, Is Disclosed. WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.—Probabilities are that the United States will not be compelled to look to Europe in the fu- ture for its chemical porcelain. Ex- periments by the Bureau of Standards disclose that it is possible to manufac- ture such articles from American Mmae- terials. UHeretofore virtually all chemi- Cal porcelain came from Germany. The experiments developed that porce- lain wares could be made from Ameri- can clay which were the equal of the foreign product except as to color. This difficulty, however, recently was over- ‘ eome. COMPOSITIONS AT POPULAR CONGERT Symphony Orchestra Plays “March of the Pioneers” by Ernest R. Kroeger. Two made-in-America compositions carried off the palm at yesterday’s pop- ular concert of the Symphony Orches- tra at the Odeon. They were the stal- wart and rugged “March of the Pio- neers,” by Ernest R. Kroeger of St. Louis, composed fer the* Pageant last year: and a “first-time” selection, “‘In- terlude,”” by P. A. Tirindelli, who has a chair in the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music. The audience demanded that the latter be played a second time. Max Zach’s musicians acquitted them- selves with their usual skill and spirit in the Overture to Massenet’s “‘Phedre;”’ in a sprightly and richly colored Suite, “Rete de Seville,” by Tavan-Marchetti, played for the first time, and in the Weber-Berlioz: ‘Invitation to the Dance.” As encores they added Nevins’ ‘‘A Day in Venice’ and Haydn’s rol- licking “‘Rondo all’ Ongarese.”’ Mrs. Helen Brown Read of Jackson- ville, Ill., a lyric soprano, won a wel- come from the audience, both because of the sweetness of her voice and a pleas- ant stage presence. In the middle reg- ister her tones were bell-like, though sirall: in the upper register they tended to become thin, and lose their resonance. She sang the Ave Maria aria from [\Bruch’s cantata, ‘Das Feuerkreuz,”’ two songs by Richard Strauss, “Morgen” AND PERLMUTTER” PROVES DELIGHT Clever Comedy Based on Mon- tagu Glass’ Stories Pleases First St. Louis Audience. By RIPLEY D. SAUNDERS. “Potash and HEN I reviewed W Perlmutter” for the Post-Dis- patch’s readers during the early days of its long run at George M. Co- han’s Theater in New York City two seasons ago, I characterized it as the most genial comedy then on the metro- politan stage. ‘ Since that time this faithful dramatic shaping of Montagu Glass’ famous short stories, in which “Abe’’ Potash and ‘“Mawruss’” Perlmutter first were given the breath of life, has made its way to London and other European capitals, also, with several road companies en- listed in its presentation, to many American cities, and now, finally, it comes to St. Louis, beginning a weeks engagement at the Olympic last night before an unusually: large audience and with a heavy advance sale that insures crowded houses throughout its. brief stay here. It is not now played by the original company, which included Barney Ber- nard as ‘‘Abe’’ Potash and Alexander Carr as ‘‘Mawruss’”’ Perlmutter, the only important member of its initial cast be- ing Leo Donnelly as Mozart Rabiner, but it is well played, nevertheless, and the genial quality of its homely humor. * Se ce ee ee ee Tighe ee : Sey OA eT Oe CO, el en ee OLR EO ee an, Tae Pp eT I SA ie Se ee ns 7 ~~ MONDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 8, 1915.

ROME, Feb. 8.—Red Cross workers in the earthquake ruins at Paterno Satur- day, heard faint moans, and on delving into the debris, excavated a man named Cairolo, who had been imprisoned there for 26 ays. The man, who is 35 years old, had had nothing but water during this time. Hte was uninjured, and when taken in an nutomobile to the nearest, town, was able to alight from the machine without assistance. e of the piece, is finely developed and maintained. This must needs be done by the play- ers of its two title roles, for the good and sufficient reason that “‘Abe’’ Potash and ‘‘Mawruss” Perlmutter are at all times the spotlighted central figures of its singularly faithful story of the busi- ness tribulations and domestic fortunes of the two partners in the East Broad- way (New York) cloak and suit firm, the checkered career of which gives the play its atmospheric environment. It is well done. Julian Rose realizes the part of ‘‘Abe”’ Potash, the crusty, stubborn, but sound-hearted senior part- ‘er, with admirably realistic touches ot sound character-drawing. ‘Mawruss’’ Perlmutter, the more eager, impulsive and disputatious younger member of the firm, is clearly etched. by Julius Tannen, with a certain undercurrent of deeper feeling that adds notably to the appeal of the character across the foot- lights. In the work of both there is a sus- linletimnehinnedindiimaaiaae ; ’ 7 of congenially truthful setting. The first shows the East Broadway establish- ment of Potash & Perlmutter, the sec- ond their new and more ambitious quarters on Fifth avenue, and the third the Potash home on Lexington avenue, and, in this characteristic environment the story is consistently told. It is in the main a story of purely humorous type. But there also is a touch of strong drama now and then, this being created by the disaster that menaces the kindly ‘‘Abe’? and the loya! ‘““Mawruss,” due to their championship of their bookkeeper, Boris Andrieff. wanted in Russia on a false charge of murder growing out of the Kiev mas- Sacre, and there are one or two in- stants when the emotional strain is quite tense.

The four appear in a ‘“‘melting pot’’ scene in the second act, which is the best thing in this wholesome and enjoyable play. The scene is timed on Christmas eve, and the old playgoer is likely to be re- minded of the similar setting in “An American Clitizen,’’ with which: Nat Goodwin and a juvenile player used to compel alternate tears and smiles, But in this case, instead of a solitary waif, there.are the aforementioned four chil- dren to keep the comedy and pathos of tenement life before the audience. There are Mickey O’Donovan and his sister, ‘“‘Blawnche,”’ little Elvira Vanni, who is training for the ballet, and whose dancing elicits from Mickey a scornful “Get the hook!” and Dulcie, princess of an imagined fairyland, to whom the sparrows at her window are nightingales, the corner applewoman is the Witch of Endor, and the rich, hard- hearted old woman who calls mysteri- ously is “‘a Christmas angel—in strange form.”’ The rich old woman, of course, is Dul- cie’s grandmother, whom Dulcie’s mother can hardly forgive for her treat- ment of the dead son and husband. It takes all the sympathy which results from the Christmas Eve scene, from Dulcie’s dangerous fllness, and from a new love in the younger woman's life, to bring the two women together, and to give the grandparents a new appre- clation of the “things that count’ for more than all their money. Persons who arrived 10 minutes late missed one of the best things in-.the play. This is the cautious preliminary inquiry of Mr. Hennaberry, as to when he is to get his breakfast. His two momentary appearances, and his mild ‘‘Dear me, I'm so hungry,” tell the au- dience, just what Mrs. Hennaberry is, before that firm and flinty specimen of womankind appears. The interview be- tween Mrs. Hennaberry and her sister, also coming early in the first act, is a spicy bit of character work. The courtship of Ingeborg, who emulates her mistress in firmness of purpose, and Abraham, is of. the “Man and Superman” sort. Agnes Findlay took the part of Mrs. Hennaberry, George Paige that of Mr. Hennaberry, Grace Dougherty was Dulcie and Evelyn Wie- dling was Dulcie’s mother. —— Intelligent Printing Service At Hughes.

Co.) PARIS, Feb. 8.—‘‘Soisante-Quinze day”’ Was celebrated throughout France yes- terday, the entire populace paying honor to a hero that ranks next in popular esteem to Gen. Joffre-to the famous “seventy-five” gun which has proved so succéssful in the war. An incident of the celebration was the sale of miniatures of the cannon, the proceeds being used to supply the sol- diers of France with the things that are indispensable for life in the trenches. The idea originated with the Touring Club of France, which had prepared ent forms, from a little flag which could be offered for 2 cents to medallions and stickpins for which a price in silver was fixed. No definite sum was asked for any of the mementos, paying being left to the generosity of the buyers by 100,000 or more fair seilers. It is estimated that $700,000 was raised. \ President Poincare paid $200 for his souvenir and many wealthy persons gave as much. Everybody on the streets geemed to be decorated, but a dull, rainy day made the number smaller than usual, The gun was invented in 1892,when line Premier. That administration faced the problem of how to make Parliament vote $30,000,000 for manufacturing fhe new ordnance, without disclosing the real object of the credits, and thus arousing Germany’s suspicions, and causing the Kaiser to renew his artil- lery. President Delombre and Reporter Krantz of the Budget Committee were the only ones informed of the real pur- pose of the credits, and the sum voted by Parliament was so disguised that its object never came out. Undoubtedly the Germans soon learned the secret, but never sought to imitate the gun, believing it too fragile for rea! work. Their 7i-millimeter gun is de- clared by French experts to be much in- ferior in every respect, firing only 15 shots a minute as compared with the 2 ahots discharged by the “75."’ “NEUTRALITY” MEETING HISSES AND CHEERS PRESIDENT’S NAME Chicago Organization Formed Promote Peace Praises Germany and Excoriates England. CHICAGO; Feb. 8—The American Neutrality League, ‘‘organized to pro- mote peace between the fations,” pro- moted a wild, warring meeting in the Coliseum Sufiday in which some 8000 pre-Germans hooted the mention of Sec- retary Hgyan and the administration. Rev. Jenkins Lloyd Jones, a real neu- tral, was the announced chairman. He war late and Horace Brand, editor of the Staats Zeitung, assumed the duties of chairman. He introduced Jeremiah (‘Leary of New York, president of fhe league. Mr. O'Leary attacked the allies and eulogized Germany, denounced Secretary the administration. The great crowd cheered and waved German fiags. Dr. Jones entered in the midst of the O'Leary tirade. “I thought I was to speak at a neutral meeting,’’ said he. “T see nothing but German flags. Where is Old Glory? Where is the tri-color of France and the Russian and Serbian colors?” He then spoke of the good in the civilization of all thegnations at war. “I .expected to see’ American citizens te here, not Germans, Irish, Saxons or Austrians.’’ This was recived with ercans. | Congressman Frank Buchanan was al- “most driven off the stage by the storm he aroused when he commended Secre- tary Bryan’s peacé attitude. The men- tion of the President’s name brought mingled hisses and cheers. Mr. Brand’s speech on taking the cheir was a strong pro-German effort. ‘GRADUATES MUST BE SWIMMERS Prineecton to Withheld Diplomas of Those Who Do Not Qualify. PRINCETON, N.

These imperfections, however, can hardly be detected except by an expert, and in no instance do they mar the appearance of the stockings. So few of their large output are of this kind that it takes a long time to accumulate a sufficientguantity to.6ffer to the public. On this occasion we have just 720 pairs, of which more than half is black, and the remainder white and colors. : If you have attended one of these sales in the past you know the wonderful , values they are, and we‘are stire that you will be among the first to take ad- vantage of this sale.

The Missourl Fish and Gams —eague, which has a membership among hunters and fishermen throughout the State of more than 1000, and is affiliated with the Interstate Sportsmen's Association (at members, is issuing a general appeal to hunters and fishermen to heln it save the State Game and Fish Department. On Thursday of last week a bill in- troduced by Representative Damron of Iron County, proposing to strip the de- Partment of all its deputies and leave the enforcement of the game and fish laws to Sheriffs’ offices and Constables, was reported adversely to the House by the Game and Fish Committee. The House reversed the report of the com- mittee and sent the bill to engrossment It developed in the debate that the wardens of the Game and Fish Depart; ment are bitterly resented for their in- efficiency in some parts of the State, whereas in other parts there is opposi- tion to any game and fish laws at all. This combination of resentment sufficed to reverse the committee. : Chairman Bowers of the Game and Fish Committee warned the House that to strip the department of its wardens and leave the enforcement of the game and fish laws to Sherifts and Consta- bles meant the virtual destruction of the department and nullification of thea game and fish laws, but the temper on the floor was such that his appeal was unavailing. Declares Quail Is Not Protected. pated in the debate said he had gone through two counties last fall before the quail season opened, and had foun: people shooting quail everywhere with- out anyone to restrain them. He de- clared the warden system a waste of the license money which hunters pay for the protection of game and fish, and he insisted that as the steward of this great fund the State is not doing its duty. The hunters and fishermen of the State are not apologizing for the State Game and Fish Department. They are too well aware that politics has from time to time impaired its efficiency to the point of provoking exactly such outbreaks as that which threatens the department today. Upon the other hand, they are determined fiercely to combat any such abandonment of con- servation as the bill introduced by Rep- resentative Damron means. The _ en- forcement of the game and fish laws by Sheriffs and Constables has been tried in Missouri. It was a failure. It has been tried in many states. It always was a failure. Mr. Damron partially admits this by offering rewards of $5 for information leading to conviction. This, too, has been tried. It also was a failure. Wardens Only Solution. Game and fish wardens have been the ultimate solution of this problem in every state of the Union which pro- tects its fish and game. They may be found in every one of these states to- day. This is because they are not lo- cally elected and cannot employ easy- going methods with the hunters and fishermen in their districts to advance their political interests. Any elective officer given the game and fish laws of his county to enforce can make him- self solid with his constituency in jig time. Such officers, moreover, have no time to enforce the game and fish laws. In most cases they know nothing about such things. Given the enforcement of these laws in Missouri for a few years, and, to quote Chairman Bowers of the Game and Fish Committee, “we will not have any game and fish to fight over.” There is at every session of the Leg- islature a plot of some sort to cripple the State Game and Fish Department. At the last session this took the form of knocking out the county license of $1 to hunt. This would have deprived the department of five-sixths of its revenue. It meant nullification of all the game and fish laws. Yet that bill passed the House, and only failed in the Senate. ° Same Men in Annual Fights. Usually the same men are behind all these attacks. They are behind this one. They do not especially resent the present administration of the Game and Fish Department. All the hunters and fishermen are certain of that. They are only taking advantage of the oppor- tunity which the Major administration has given them by playing politics. Their motive at bottom is to destroy the law; to throw the market open to the sale of game, and to make commerce for a brief period of what might be made to serve for sport and recreation fcrever. An emergency meeting of the Missouri Game and Fish League was held at the Marquette Hotel Saturday afternoon. It to urge hunters and fishermen every- where in the State to use their influence to bear upon the Legislature in opposi- tion to any such plan as that of House bill 602, which carries this provision. All the hunters and fishermen are agreed upon the unwisdom of this bill. Inefficiency in the Game and Fish De- partment, they say, can be corrected; but to strip the department of its war- dens means annihilation. ONLY IDLE MILL AT GARY STEEL PLANT. OPENS TODAY.

What I expec will happen is this: . We shall sail from here about Dec. 2. That will give a chance for the ice to be breaking up in the south, and we ought, with luck, to get a landing about the end of the month. If the ice had ‘ij been up north we could have landed about the beginning of December. Short ef Coal. We shall at once investigate the road 10 the south, and if Filchener’s landing place proves to be any sort of harbor suitable for the ship I shall put down both anchors and wait for her to freeze in. Then I shall know that the ship will be handy to take off the remainder of the shore party about Feb. 1, 1916. I am not going to risk them later. The ship will go north then to South Georgia. As we are not too well off for coal during the winter, our hands will be employed in skinning seals and taking blubber, which will be put in empty boxes, and this will be used to stoke the boilers.

WIFE ENCOURAGED HIM She Believed in “Dreamer” When Others Scoffed, Now There’s Fortune in Sight. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Feb. 8.—Albert 8. Janin, cabinetmaker, has taken off his apron in the shop in which he has worked eight hours a day for the last 14 years at Rosebank, S. I., and resigned his job. He didn’t quit in a huff—a fact that was plainly attested by the manner in which the foreman wrung his hand and his fellow workmen crowded around him, their faces beaming. “Congratulations,’ Al,”’ said the fore- man simply. From somewhere in. the crowd spoke one of Janin’s intimates: “The ‘Bug’ has made good.” “Well,” rejoined Janin good-naturedly, ‘it no longer will be Janin the cabinet- maker, or Janin the Bug, the dreamer. I guess the handle to my name has been pretty firmly established as ‘Jan, invent- or of the hydroaeroplane.’ ”’ Then the modest little five-room flat at 78 Clifton avenue, overlooking the broad sweep of the lower bay, was the scene of an evening celebration, the like of which had never been seen at Rose- bank. Most enthusiastic of the guests were men who, for the last 10 years, have scoffed at the strange-looking winged craft in the Janin back yard, which, the poor carpenter would some day be recognized by the Patent Office as the first flying boat. Rosebank Put on Map. Rosebank went on the map to stay last week when word was received from Washington that the Board of Exam- jiners in Chief of the Patent Office had decided unanimously that the man who made the hydroaeroplane possible was not Glenn H. Curtiss, but Albert S. Janin, land. Tor four years the powerful’ Cur- tiss interests had fought the claims of the obscure carpenter through the Pat- ent Office and‘ to its highest court—the Board of Examiners in Chief. Thomas A. Hill, a patent lawyer of Broadway, took the case out of a sense of justice, without compensation. As « former presidefht of the Acronautical Society of America, and at present a director, Hill went into the litigation. Just how it feels for a struggling workman, whose $% a day is barely enough tec provide the necessaries o? life for a wife and sven children, to suddenly find himself famous, and a fortune within his grasp, Janin tried to explain. He is still a little dazed over his good luck, and in his hour of tri- umph thinks only of the good things ip store for his wife and the now bright futures of the seven little Janins, blond- haired youngsters rahging from 3 to 74 years of age. Janin “Put It Over.” “We put it over, didn’t we, mother?’’ Janin beamed, affectionately patting his wife. “If it hadn’t been that she stuck to me—believed in me, when all the rest were poking fun and scoffing—I never would have made it.” “And if it hadn’t been,’’ Mrs. Janinu interrupted, “‘that after your hard day’s work for almost every night in the last 10 or 15 years you burned the oil at your work bench until long after mid- night, you never would have made it.”’ “The best part of this invention is that, unlike a whole lot of others, it's going to bring us money—gobs of it,’’ Janin broke in. “For years we have felt the pinch of poverty, but thanks tu Mr. Hill and his work in Washington, I guess that day is passed. You know the’ decision of the Patent Office gives me a royalty on every hydroaeroplane turned out in this country dating from the day a few weeks hence my patent is printed and issued by the Govern- ment. Mr. Hill tells me that the royalty can be fixed arbitrarily by the inventor. The failure of any of these companies building hydroaeroplanes to come tv terms, of course, would be followed by an infringement suit, but we don’t ex- pect any such difficulty. How He Will Use Money. ‘What will I do with the money? The first thing will be to get a home of our own with plenty of ground argund it for the kids to play. No more of these flats for us. But we are gcing to stay right here in Rosebank, where my wif+ and I were born and brought up. You know, we were sweethearts, even at old P. S. No. 13, around the corner. Most of the kids are now going to that same school. The oldest girl, Antoinette, whu is now 14, can realize her ambition to go to normal school and take up teach- ing, if she wants to—but she don’t have to now.” ——— Busy Bee Candies tu Valentines, Valentine novelties, appropriate designs. — Burglars Use Ax on Conrad’s Door, An ax stolen from the furnace room at 2253 South Grand avenue was used last night in an attempt to break into the store of the J.

April 10, 1907. | MR. POTTS’ VIEWS. Expert advice on Insurance legislation is highly desirable in view of the effort to devise a satis- factory insurance law for this State. On this ac- count, the Post-Dispatch has given Insurance Su- perintendent Potts ample opportunity to put be- fore the public his opinion of the pending insur- ance bill. ; ! | Following his letter, which grossly misrépre- sented the bill, the Post-Dispatch published Sunday his analysis of the measure. Some of Mr. Potts’ suggestions of improvements have value and might well be acted on, but in the main his statement is so uniformly and unqualifiedly hos- tile that the force of his statement is greatly impaired. From Mr. Potts’ viewpoint there is nothing good in the bill. He does not even see the value of the complete publicity of rates and records for which the bill provides. When he discusses a section conferring ample powerw of publicity and regula- tion on the Insurance Superintendent he objects that the Superintendent may be corrupt or incom- petent and refuse or neglect to use his powers. The incompetent or corrupt official'is a menace te the effectiveness of ail laws, no matter how ‘LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE . Lo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The worst measure now being sought to be passed through the Missouri Legislature is Sen- ate Bill No. 6, an act creating the office of State Fire Marshal. This bill is gotten up entirely in the interest of, and by the insurance companies. A» more complete spy system was never devised. It gives the “State Fire Marshal” an anrual sal- ary of $2500, plus all expenses incurred in the performance of the duties of his office. It gives him the right to appoint a deputy fire marshal at . $2000 per year, “together with’ his expenses.” . Again: It empowers “in the same manner” the appointment of “two chief assistant fire mar- shals,” who shall each receive an annual salary of $1800. . ~ Again: “They are authorized to employ such , Olerks and stenographers, and incur such other expenses ag may be necessary in the performance of their duties.” Such other and additional em- ployes can be appointed by them as they see fit. The law gives them the right “to enter tnto and upon all buildings and premises within the State.” There is not a home in this State, or any room or sanctuary in it that this crew shall not have the right “to enter into.” What more intolerable violation of the constitutional rights of the peo- ple can be imagined? Up to date we have been taught that every man’s home is his sanctuary and castle, and no entry or violation of its sacred precincts could be made, except, upon a search warrant issued by,a court of competent jurisdic- tion, and only after the exact piace where the search is to be made is gtated, and the purpose defined for which the search is to be made. Again: These officials are “authorized and em- powered (without let or hindrance) to make in- vestigations and inquiries and force disclosures, as to the amount of insurance carried on any property in this State, and when he finds (or thinks) that property is insured to an amount in excess of its true value, he shall have the right to order and compel the amount thereof reduced ® to the true value.” Think of such a provision as this, and where, is the right of ownership of prop- erty left? Why should any fire marshal have the right to investigate, or tnquire about how much insurance, or in regard to any other private contract. that a citzen of this State has, if such citizen has not been convicted of crime; and to arbitrarily say what his property is worth, or how much insur- ance he shall carry? If “the owner or occupant” ling to fortify their valuable special privileges in the several states differ in detail but are in (think of the short time ft gives a business man | Purpose identical. will not “within 48 hours” appeal from the arbi- trary decision of these irresponsible persons ‘to act) such orders of these fire marshals be- come final and shall remain in full force, unless/ government to deliver the cities, bound hand such “owner or occupant” ghall in five days, file a petition for review “with a court of eompetent “conditioned to pay all costs upon appeal.” Could anything be more impudent or tyrannical? jWhy should the citizens of this State be forced | Dill alms to enlarge the fleld for municipal own- t+ appeal from the order of these fire marshals |ership; to “protect” the people. and assistants, and go to the expense and trouble of appealing to the Circuit Court for redress?

A commission may be as corrupt and incompetent as one individual, with the ad- vantage of divided responsibility. Mr. Potts’ misleadingstatements about the pending bill and hig apparently unfounded charges that the commission’s report and the measure were> written by insurance officials, do not strengthen his efforts to show that the measure is devised wholly in the interest of the insurance companies. We want impartial advice without animus or ulterior motives. In the end the Missouri legislators must use their judgment on the merits of the bill as finally perfected. Sound. insurance legislation is an imperative need of the State. == * — = DEFENDING ENGLAND’S MONOPOLY.

The per capita cost of police departments in all the larger cities of the country will also throw light on the ques- tion.

There was a great crowd there with nothing more to discuss than equal suffrage or something else upon which nothing remains to be said, and when I came in I was importuned to speak on the shipping bill. Crites, who made the motion, said Socrates would understand it, if anyone did, and would know what was right and wrong in the mattér. He said he believed there had been more sincere difference of opinion with respect to this project than anything Congress had considered in the last decade, and he knew they would all like to have the subject clarified by one who does not occupy his time playing bridge whist. Glaucon: Pretty soft for people at the Agora, I should say. After wasting their time all week, they can go there on Sunday night and catch up on public affairs at the expense of one who conserves his time and is therefore able to tell them what they would not otherwise know. Socrates: I quite agree with you, Glaucon, It is a national habit. If it were not, we would not have in this country so many successful publications which serve in exactly the same way in which I served last night. We have more pople who swear by reviews of one kind and another than one would imagine. Glaucon: I know. Polemarchus is of that kind. He does not read the daily news and keep up on national qnestions, but buys for ten cents a week a@ publication which performs that service for him. I asked Polemarchus one day where he thought the editor of the review got all his information, if not from sources which he could command himself. Socrates: -It is true, of course. People of that a ~ —— a otengin . ee ae ue Oe egw —_ ~ e« ISPATCH wind nor what they thought, Glaucon: We may safely assume, I suppose, that most of the people who were at the Agora had not gotten their reviews for last week. Socrates: No doubg. At any rate, I did talk about the shipping bill, but I did not talk very long. It is not necessary. I said if there were anyone present who thought private interests would put an American merchant marine on the sea if the Govern- ment did not do it, I would like to have him stand up. Nobody stood up. There were plenty of people present who did not believe in the shipping bill, but none of them stood up. I then asked everybody who believed we should have a merchant marine to raise the right hand, and I think everybody did. Very well, Isaid. It seems, then, that we want a merchant marine; but that the Government plan is the only plan anybody, has for getting one. In that case, we should support the shipping bill, even at the risk of losing the $30,000,000 we would invest. It beats doing nothing about a merchant marine. Giaucon: So it does.

T WAY TO END DANDRUFF There is one sure way that never fails to remove dandruff completely, and that is to dissolve it. This destroys it entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, or. inary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp, and rub it in gently with the finger tips, \ By morning most, if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will com- pletely dissolve and entirely destroy fevery single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop in- stantly and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better, You can get liqu'? aiven at any drug store. It is inexpendive, and four ounces is all you will need.

MUNICIPAL SOCCER PLAYERS WILL BE SIISPENDED TODAY Five Football Men Who Started Trouble in Sunday’s Game to Be Punished. f Joseph and James Noonan, brothers, living at 138 Belt avenue, will be hauled into Police Court this morning to answer a charge of disturbing the peace for ettacking Player Corbett of the Sonnen- berg team, in the Fairground Division of the Municipal Soccer League yester- day. This was announced this morning by Rodowe Abeken, Municipal Athletic Director. Abeken also stated that the five play- ers of the Claxton team, who were chased by Referee Lyster for using pro- fance language; Schumacher of the St. Matthews, who knocked out Marre of the Aloes, and Rodgers of the Sonnen- bergs would be suspended ag soon as he received a full detailed report from the referees. That roughness will not be tolerated in the Municipal League was the an- nouncement made by Abeken this morn- ing. Any players who try it will be ex- pelled from the league for a length of time sufficient to cover the offense. “TI am going to work hard for a work- house sentence for the Noonan broth- ers,”’ said Abeken. “Many times it Is the faris who start the rows at the dif- ferent parks. They become enraged be- ceuse their favorites are getting de- feated and ‘start.something.’ ” Rough Play Punished. The trouble between the Noonan brothers and Corbett started when Rodg- ers of the Sonnenbergs “spilled’’ sev- eral Claxton players. Rodgers was put out of the game and then the Noo- nans jet on Corbett. They were ar- rested, though, before they were able to do any serious damage. Player Schumacher of the St. Mat- thews became enraged when Marre of the Aloes banged a goal through the uprights and knocked the latter cold. He was immediately chased, while Mar- re was able to continue after a short rest. The point proved to be the only one in the contest and won for the Aloes. Besides the numerous offerings of fisticuffs some good games, with many surprises came in Sunday's round. At Cc. B. C. the West End A. C., which is'trailing in the race, handed the lead- ing College team a 1 to 0 defeat. The Southerns defeated the Trumbulls, 1. to 0, at Carondelet Park.

The details of what happened yester- day (and this was a repetition of what happens there each Sunday) are found elsewhere on this page. The holding of such a show is not only a slap at the Sabbath-observing element of the local population, but it is flouting the Police Department openly. That isn’t the worst of it. The laxity of the club’s officials in permitting the battle royal and of extending the duration of rounds beyond the 3-minute limit is sure to result in a serious accident some day. This would compel the already lenient city authorities to close down the club and possibly the entire game, which exists on sufferance purely. Reputable clubs have worked hard to establish a clean name for the boxing game in this city. From a suspicious, menacing attitud@ the Police Depart- ment has taken on one of confidence. Its mandates have so far been lived up to. Now, for the sake of a few Sunday dimes, with negro boxers performing, the sport’s future is in danger of being wrecked. Coming at a time when two boxing bills are before the State Legislature for consideration, an accident or undue publicity to the Sunday boxing game would certainly kill whatever remote chance promoters have of interesting country legislators in the legalizing of this good sport. Drop that ax and quit chasing the golden goose, T. Sullivan & Co. i * Adieu, Kay See Feds. HE official stamp has been added to the announcement that the Kansas City Federals will be trans- ferred East. The move was exclusively forecast Saturday in the Post-Dispatch. The Kansas City lecation is an il- logical one, with respect to the Fed- eral circuit. Poor transportation and weak civic baseball enthusiasm are two strong arguments against the inclusion of this city in any major league. The Federal organization, convinced that it will have to fight the major leagues for its life, has no doubt reached the conclusion that a New York entry is imperative, if it is ever to force itself on the country as a big: league. A Federal authority told the Post- Dispatch that the “outlaws” already have a park site in New York that is better than the Polo Grounds. New- ark, however, has been hinted as the temporary successor to Kansas City. It is ineoncetvable that the Federal League would be content to lose diguity and class by en- tericg a city the size of Newark —the metropolis or nothing, it will have to be, when the trans- fer comes. That “Big league or bust’ slogan will be a vaudeville laugh, with teams in the circuit like Newark and Indianapolis. * Title Fight a Joke. ACK JOHNSON weighs 245 pounds, according to a report from the Barbados, where he has been sight- ed. Less than one month hence Jack Aas an engagement to fight Jess Willard, the medium of _ Promoter Jack Curley’s next “world’s cham- pionship” killing at Juarez, Mexico. The high weight means that Johnson, to be in condition to fight a finish battle, will have to lose 35 pounds in four weeks, a feat that seems physically incom- patible with good health and physical strength. Conjecture as to what means is almost useless. be: That Johnson is underestimat- ing Willard, That the fight is a frame-up for Johnson to lose. That Johnson doesn't expect to do better than 225 pounds for the White Hope. That he has given up hopes of getting ifito Mexico.

Magnates Bresnahan, Huggins and Herzog. Are After Players to Bolster Their Outfits. NEW YORK, Feb. 8—With reports that Roger Bresnahan, Charles Herzog and Miller Huggins three club mana- gers were on their way to New York the National League meeting here to- morrow promises to be overshadowed by an auction market for players. Manager Bresnahan; according to re- ports wants an infielder and an out- fielder. Huggins and Herzog, reports have it, are in the market for pitch- ers and fielders, who are known as hit- ters. The chief business arranged for the consideration ‘of the club owners in- cludes proposals to rescind the 21 play- er limit rule, to abolish the March 1 training camp law and a decision about exempting the class AA clubs from draft, the adoption of a playing sched- ule for next season and a thorough discussion as to the probable dissolu- tion of the national commission, which is being advocated now. : There seems little doubt that the player limit rule was recently adopted by the League will be rescinded. Also the restriction on training will probably be lifted, as the American League re- fused to er any ban on this expense. John . Tener, president o the League, probably will.be given the righ: to act with President Johnson of the American League in the question o exempting from draft all, class AA leagues.” he “aha Adopting the schedule will be only a matter of form, as the dates already have beeh arranged. ,% - A Central Y.

Records of Recruits Coming to Cerdinals NAME—TBEAM. Betzel, Columbia TOTO nt a aa ae When Manager Miller Huggins of the Cardinals threw out his dragnet for players last fall, he was not very lucky in obtaining athletes, who could swat the pill for a .300 mark, or pitchers, who could fool the opposition in startling fashion. Among the rookies who will receive a tryout with the Cardinals this spring just two hit for better than .300 marks in the “bushes” last year. They were Betzel and Long, who recently came from the Nationals in exchange for Pitcher Booth Hooper. Betzel hit.°312 in the South Atlantic League, while Long compiled a mark of .308 in the South- ern. The next best mark was made by Harry Glenn, the catcher, who wag re- called from Sst. Paul in the American Association. Glenn played with the Saints in 101 clashes and swatted for a .267 mark. He ranked with the leaders in fielding, with .971. Rolla Daringer; who is_ the only youngster coming from the minors who will try to fill Arnold Hauser’s shoes at short, hit .256 in 87 games with Pe- oria. His name does not appear in the fielding records. Daringer was able to play very little in 1914 on account of the broken leg. Betzel, the youngster who played sec- ond base in a few battles for the Car- dinals late last fall, was the best fiel:i- er in the lot. Betzel topped the middleé- station guardians in the South Atlantic with a percentage of .976. Lotz’s Record Is Best. Lotz, who last season twirled for the Oskosh club in the Wisconsin-Illinois League, made the best record among the young flingers coming to Huggins’ bri- gade. Lotz captured 24 battles and lost nine last year for a .727 percentage. This mark put him fifth among the pitchers in the organization. Another flinger, who made a fairly good mark was North, who hails from the New York State League. North was one: of the “iron men” in the New York State League, pitching in 245 in- nings. In this time, 931 batters faced him, ‘while 193 were able to aut - ge giving him an average of .207 hits time at bat. The tallies off him tota oa 101. He also was the wild.man of the league, giving 119 bases on balls. Meadows, from the North Carolina League, won 19 and lost 12> Steele, who comes from the Victoria Club in the Northwestern League, captured 18-of his 31 games. Franklin Johnson, *whé with Jacksonville - last season pitched & no- hit game, ranked “twenty-third. among the flingers in the South -Atlantic League, with 17 victories and 16 de- feats, a percentage of .515. Columbus Club ~ Beats Innisfails and Takes Lead The Columbus Club eleven sprang a surprise in the Robison Field League yesterday, trimming the Innisfalils, 2—1, and taking the lead in the league race. This is the first time this year that Finnegan's team is out’ in front. Schwartz and Cliff Brady counted the goals for the C. C., while Diedrickson’'s boot saved the Irishmen from a shutout. In the other game, the Teresas gained a 3 to 1 victory over the Manewals. 8S. King was the star for the winners, counting two goals. Mason and Roche were the other point scorers. With the St. Leos and Ben Millers making a runaway race in the Federal Park egr Hr the managers will hold a meeting this week to revise the sched- ule.. In all probability the games will be arranged so that the Leos and Hat- ters clash in the feature tilt each -un- lumbtan a my 2 Compton eHilla and Co- c playing in the other. In oth clashes, the St. Leos swamped the Compton Hills, 7 to 3% while the ) Ben Millers defeated the Co- lumbian 0. Only one point /§ separates rik . g Poly and Millers at pres- ent.
