Wilkinson, who was struck and severely injured by an Erie Itailroad train in Bloomfield last year as he was driving a milk wagon across ene tracks. Wilson's hips and several ribs were broken and he was injured internal- ly: his wagon was smashed and the mules which drew it were killed. He claimed the train approached with- out proper warning. The company in its counter claim alleged that by careless driving he struck “the locomotive and “bent, broke and destroyed divers slats or frames of the pilot and cowcatcher and bruised, abraised, mutilated and destroyed paint and polish on the locomotive.” The road asked $100 damages.

BIRTH IN HOTEL DENIED BY CLERKS Two Tesfify in Will Contesi They Never Heard of the Occurrence in 1893. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, March 11.—B. A. Birge, assistant manager of the Belmont Hotel of New York, the first witness today for the plaintiffs in the depositions be- ing taken in the James Campbell will contest, ‘testified that during his 20 years of employment in the Grand Union Hotel, from 183% until 1906, he had never heard of a birth in the hotel. Had one he said, he would have. beén apt to hear of it. Attorneys for the Campbell heirs contend Lois Campbeil Burkham was born in the Grand Union Hotel, March 17, 1893. Births in hotels are most unusual, Birge said. In his nine years at the Belmont there had been but one birth, which all the ernployes generally heard about. As far as his knowledge went, Berge} said, no woman had been brought into the Grand Unicn Hotel from the street in March, 1893, to become the mother of a child. He said he was familiar with all the hotel’s furniture and that there was no infant’s cradle in the ho- tel at any time, as far as he knew. Ann Mahoney . previously testified she had first seen Lols in a cradle in Mrs. Campbell’s room in the hotel. Berge apparently surprised L. Frank Ottofy, plaintiff!s counsel, by testifying there were 18 or 20 guest rooms on the ground floor of the hotel, this being contradictory to the evidence of Engi- neer McMahon, given yesterday, who said there were none. He corroborated McMahon, however, to the extent that the kitchen could not be seen from any of the guest rooms, nor would a guest entering from the street pass a kitchen in going to a room. In cross-examiriation Morton Jourdan, representing Mrs. Campbell, brought out the fact that the dining room was visible from the office and could be seen by incoming guests, and that in saying Mrs. Campbell had not been a guest at the hotel, Berge meant that he did not remember she ever had been. Birge, on direct examination, had tes- tified Mrs. James Campbell was never te his knowledge, a guest at the Grand Union Hotel. Birge had been employed at the Grand Union Hotel in various capacities, but in March, 1893, he was night room clerk. He has held his pres- ent position at the Belmont Hotel fer nine years. Michael Toner, a clerk at the Grand Hotel, where he has been employed com tinuously about 34 years, was the seo ond witness. He started as fireman, became night clerk, and fipally day clerk, Which he was in -1898, and has beer since. He had no recollection of a woman with a one-day-old infant be- irg brought into the hotel; that had such an event happened he would, In all rrobabili-y, have known of it, it would brave been so unusual. He was asked if he recalled a James Campbell of St. Louis having ever been a guest of the hotel. He said he remem- bered many Campbelis and asked for a picture of the late banker. Ottofy produced one, taken prior to 1888. The witness said he could not remember the pictured face by name, but that it was that of a man he had seen. In cross examination Toner was sure he would remember if a woman with a new born baby came in when he was on duty, but he was unable to say what his hours of duty were on any day in March 1888. He also admitted he would not have inquired as to the age of any infant that might be brought in in the arms of its mother or a nurse. He also admitted he could not recall the name of any guest who came to the Grand | Hotel in March 1898. There are no rec ords of the nets's guests in existence he sali. A new phase entered into the case with the appearance of William Otis Badger Jr... representing George H. Robinson, a nephew of Mr. Campbell. j who is in the insurance business tn New York. — WILKINS ARRESTED, WARRANT CHARGES WALKERS MURDER Accused Man Taken Into Cus- tody at His Real Estate Of- fice in Louisiana, Mo. TO BE ARRAIGNED TODAY Alleged Slayer Is Said to Have Faced Trouble Over Note Transaction. By a Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. LOUISIANA, Mo., March 11.—Fred Wilkins was arrested here today on a Warrant charging him with the murder of Col. Alten M. Walker, former Mayor of Louisiana and member of Gov. Ma- jor’s staff. The warrant, which was issued by Justice of the Peace Omo- hundro at Bowling Green, county seat of Pike County and based on the sworn complaint of William Brazier, was served by a Deputy Sheriff. The arrest was made at Wilkin’s real estate office, while Eugene Pearson, one of Wilkin’s lawyers, was there. It was planned to ‘take Wilkins to the county seat on an afternoon train for arraignment before the Justice who is- sued the warrant. If he waives pre- liminary examination, McGinnis has stated, he will be held without bond. If he is ready to stand preliminary ex- amination, the Justice will have to de- cide the question of bond. In case confinement is required, it will probably be in the jail here, as the county jail at Bowling. Green -is. quar- antined because of a case of smallpox. Warrant Once Refused. As was told in the fine: edition of yesterday’s Post-Dispatch, the sworn complaint was first laid before Justice Sullivan of Louisiana by Prosecuting Attorney McGinnis, who asked. that a warrant be issued. Sullivan declined to issue the warrant, and McGinnis then went to Bowling Green and got Omo- hundro to act. Walker was shot March 2 and died two days later. Walker told a physician, in summoning him by telephone, that he had shot himself, but when the phy- sician arrived, he said Wilkins had shot him accidentally in Walker’s office. He repeated this statement to several per- sons. Wilkins has ‘“‘stood pat’’ on this Statement of Walker’s, although other circumstances have developed which have brought it {In question, both as to place and as to circumstances. Wiikins and his wife declined to testify at the Coroner’s inquest, and the Coroner’s jury recominended that Wilkins be held. Investigation by the Post-Dispatch correspondent in Hannibal has shown that Wilkins was confronted by the alternative of raising $800 quick- ly, or facing trouble in connec- tion with a loan transaction. De- mand had been made by City Attorney Lewis O’Connor that Wilkins come to Hannibal and make restitution. Wil- kins had been given to understand that he might expect to face a serious charge unless he straightened the mat- ter out. The transaction took place in October, 1914. Wilkins had traded to Mrs. Ida Derouse of 1500 Fulton street, Hannibal, a farm in Ralls County for three pieces of city property. One piece was a house and lot at 900 Booker street, title to which, after Wilkins obtained it, was placed in the name of his wife, Mrs. Diana’ Wilkins. In the latter part of October Wilkins obtained from Miss Ann Doyle a loan of $800 on this prop- erty. Signature In Dented. Wilkins told her, she says, that the money was wanted for Mrs. Ethel M. Wooten, wife of Elmer C. Wooten. Miss Doyle was given a note bearing the names of Diana Wilkins and Ellen M. Wooten. Miss Doyle supposed it had been signed by Mrs. Ethel M. Wooten. When the interest became due and was not paid, Miss Doyle went to Mrs. Ethel Wooten. She denied that the signature of Ellen M. Wooten on the note was hers. Miss Doyle went to "Morris An- derson, who had been named as trustee without his knowledge or consent. He made inquiry and found that before Wiikins borrowed the $800 from Miss Loyle a deed of trust had been exe- euted on the Booker street property and the two other pieces of property by Mrs. Wilkins **® Mrs. Eliga Jackson, mother-in-law of Alton M. Walker, for $2700, and that the Jackson deed had been recorded at Palmyra before the Dovie deed was filed. Anderson made efforts to get Miss Doyle’s money, but did not succeed. “Vhen he was elected Prosecuting At- torney he did not want to occupy the position “of using the authority of his office and at Miss Doyle's suggestion turncd the matter over to O’Connor. The latter consulted with the Hannibal at- torney who had been representing Wil- kins and it was arranged that Wilkins should come to Hannibal within a féw days. If he failed to make restitution action was to be taken against him. It was as‘he was facing this situation, that Wilkins after buying a railroad ticket at Louisiana, Tuesday, March 2, in the presence of Walker, disappeared, afterward telephoning from McNellys’ grocery and inquiring if everything was all right. It was three hours later that } Walker telephoned from his office that he had been shot. Investigation by the Post-Dispatch correspondent after Walker's death on Thursday disclosed that Wilkins had teen assisting Walker who was in distress from the direction of Wilkins’ home to Walker's office. Further investigation following the in- quest resulted in the discovery that he had called a telephone number contain- ing the figure 5 between 5:30 and: 6 oclock Tuesaday evening, and the tele- phone number’at W Ba Le Bn Bn tn in i ie i a ee i ee a, Harry Thaw’s Mother Going to Court; One of Her Daughters | EEE eEeEEISer aero © Amerctcan Press Assn MRS. THAW, MOTHER of HARRY K THAW, and MRS. CARNEGIE, hrs SISTERS SANITY QUESTION BARRED BY JUDGE | Justice Rules Out Testimony on That Point; State Completes Conspiracy Case. NEW YORK, March 11.—Harry K. Thaw’s attempt to get evidence concern- ing his sanity into the record of his trial for conspiracy to escape from Mattea- wan failed today. Justice Page ruled out all testimony of this character except just enough to «how that Thaw had the mental capaci- ty to enter in a conspiracy with his five co-defendants to escape. He held that injection of testimony designed to prove Thaw’s sanity was improper in this case, which was purely to try an indictment charging the existence of an illegal con- spiracy to effect the escape. The State brought its case to a close and the defense immediately made the usual motions to dismiss the indictment | rels between boys in his school. on the ground that the State had failed | method, he said, to prove its contentions. The motions were al] denied except one in behalf of Mike O'Keefe, made on the ground that there was no evidence adducd to connect him with, the alleged crime. Justice Page discharged O'Keefe. Objection to Sanity Testimony. The sanity question came up during the testimony of Bernard Kelsey, the New Hampshire deputy, who brought about Thaw’s arrest in Canada. He was asked whether he thought Thaw was rational, but the prosecution’s objection was sustained, and the attor- neys argued on the admission of lay tes- timony regarding Thaw’s sanity. In arguing for the admission, John B. Stanchfield sald it was Thaw’s idea that. if he should not get away from the asy- lum, he might by association become in- sane. “As an act of sefl-preservation it was necessary for him to escape as he had exhausted all legal means tu effect his release,”’ said Mr. Stanchfield. “There was no criminal intent, for, as I said, the escape is no crime.” Thaw Has Bad Cold, Justice Page asserted that the release +l have been effected according to Thaw was suffering so severely last night from’ a cold and rheu- matism that he was allowed to sleep in the office of the Warden of the Tombs Prison on a couch, loaned for that purpose by Justice Page. Mrs. Mary Copley Thaw, mother of the prisoner, and her daughter, Mrs. George Carnegie, a sister of Thaw, are attending each seshion of the trial and ‘frequently have joined in langhter at the remarks vePherd some of the witnesses.

Fist fights between pupils of the Gar- field School, in Pine Lawn, St. Louis County, are ‘“‘pulled off’ occasionally under the auspices of Principal C. W. Robinson, in his private office. This developed today when it became known that Louis Oelger of Hollywood, father of a boy who was “licked’’ in an en- counter of this kind, had made com- plaint to the Normandy District School Board, and was talking of laying the matter before the Prosecuting Attorney. Robinson, who lives at 5946 Ridge ave- nue, St. Louis, told a Post-Dispatch re- porter of the novel method which he has evolved for settling long-standing quar- This has been used at the school several times, and the latest in- stance was the fight between Oliver Oelger, 14 years old, and John Benson, 13, in hig office, Feb. 24. Benson scored a knockout. Punishment Does Little Good. “It sometimes happens,’’ said the prin- }cipal, ‘“‘that two boys have a long-stand- ing grudge against each other, which is go complicated in its origin that the teacher cannot get to the bottom of it, and determine which boy ig to blame. It does little good to punish one boy, or both. Every teacher knows that the best way in some cases—not in every case—would be to let the boys fight it out. Well, I have just carried out that idea in.a few cases, where the boys seemed well matched physically. Now that there has been complaint from a parent, I don’t know whether I shall use this method again or not.” The principal said that F. B. Miller, superintendent of schools In the dis- trict, was in his office when the Ben- gon and Oelger boys were brougnt in. They had a quarrel over the ownership of some pigeons, and neither the prin- cipal nor the superintendent could make head or tall of the argument. “Let Them Have It Out.” “We'd better let them have it out,” said the principal, and he says the superintendent agreed. So the table and chairs were moved into a corner and the boys were told they might peel their coats and begin. A ring- side report of the event Is not avail- able, but Robinson says the bout was a decisive one, with the younger boy as winner. Samuel FE.

Interesting Question Raised. Whether the action of the captain of the Prinz. Eitel has placed his Government in a dilemma by sinking the American grain ship William P. Frye was much discussed in official quarters today. Assuming that the Frye’s cargo was not consigned to the British Government, one view is that the German Government either must repudiate the action of Capt. Thierichsen-and pay for the Frye and her cargo or withdraw its protest to the State Department against the British assumption of the right to seize food cargoes bound from a neu- tral country like the United States to the civilian population of Ger- many. It was believed possible that Ger- many might seek a middle course by adopting the British view that goods shipped “to order,” as was the Frye’s cargo, are not entitled to the same NEWPORT NEWS, Va., March 1L— The story of the sinking of the Amer- ican sailing ship William P. Frye, by the German commerce destroyer Prinz Eitel Friedrich—probably the most se- rious incident of the wa: in its con- cern to the United States—was being slowly unraveled here today. Chased to the haven of an American port by cruisers, the Prinz Eltel lay at anchor and her commander had re- cetved from the port authorities the usual notice to leave within 2% -hours. That, however, was a mere formality required by law, for after seven months’ of sea roving, during which she sent 11 prizes to the bottom, the German auxiliary needs repairs which will take weeks. The crew of the Frye was released The Post-Dispatch je the onty 28g" Rt. oa cinta | tied NEWPORT NEWS, Va., March 11.—Oapt, Thierichsen of the Prinz Eitel Friedrich late today formally informed Collector of Customs Hamilton that it was not his intention to interne his ves- sel, and that unless the United States refuses to grant him the — necessary time for repairs and restrains him, the converted cruiser — will attempt to continue its voyage of adventure, WASHINGTON, March 11.—The foliowing statement was iss eRe ets adie so ‘‘The President, when asked regarding the sinking of the American sailing ship William P.

It is not considered likely, however, that the attack will be pressed until land forces occupy both sides of the straits. That such land forces are almost ready for this task is indicated by the report that a «reat French transport fieet has bees sighted off «alta. In an Admiralty report issued. early yesterday, it was said that the German submarine sunk by the destroyer Ariel was the U®, one of the newest under water craft. Now, however, it is learned that the vessel was the U12, one of the smaller and older submarines, which had paid more than one visit to British waters since the war began and had done considerable “damage to British shipping. Of her crew of 28, 10 were saved. This makes the seventh subraarine sunk by British warships, but it is be- lieved in London that as many more have been sunk by merchantmen or met with accidents.

GERMANS MOVE ON PRZASNYSZ AGAIN PEBTROGRAD, March 11.—A regroup- ing of thé German forces in Northern Poland and the commencement of a new attempt upon Prazasnysz has been noted by the general etact of the Russian army. This movement is being made in con- siderably greater strength than was the reeent operation in the direction of Preasnyss which terminated in not only local defeat for the Germans, but in the general retirement of all the German forces toward their own frontier. The discontinuance of operations along the Niemen River makes it possible for the Germans to sénd a. largé number of troops from this district to reinforce the men advancing from Korjile in the general direction of Miawa and Przasn- yss. This transfer, as usual, has been effected with lightning-like speed by means of the German railroads and the forces in their neighborhood has been further augmented by drafts of the 1915 recruits, Having accomplished a re- grouping of the forces and leaving only enough men in the Augustowo district to protect the left bank of the German army besieging Ossowet, an important battle already is under way on a long front paralleling the Narew River. One of the German motives of this new alignment of forces undoubtedly is to stréngthen their postition hefare Osso- wetz. In the absence cf official in- formation concerning Ostowets, it is as- sumed that this engagement is still go- ing on without « decision having been reached. Furthermore, it is not im- probable that in the near future the battlefield in the vicinity of Przasnysx > ng will become the scene of new con- ts.

AGAINST SINKING OF FRVE LIKELY U. S. Never Recognized Right to Destroy Vessel Because She Carried Contraband. FEW PRECEDENTS FOUND Frye Had No Chance to Present Evidence——American Case Considered Strong. WASHINGTON, March 11.—Discussion in official quarters today of the sinking of the American ship Wm. P. P. Frye by the Prinz BHitel was taken to fore- shadow a strong protest to Germany. The contention of the German com- mander that because the American ship had contraband of war aboard her de- struction was justified has been set up as a plea in other cases, but never has been recognized by the United States. The fact that the Pring Bitel Fried- rich was commanded by a German naval officer, under commission from the Ger- man Government, and the fact that no lives were lost when the Frye was sunk, transferred the case from the realm of criminal proceedings under the Federal statutes, on a possible charge of pi- racy, and made it a subject of diplo- matic negotiations with the ‘United States on the subject. of conditional! con- traband and foodstuffs, with the ob- ject of gaining reparation for the own- ers and a disclaimer of unfriendliness. That the United States would ask for damages and an explanation from the German Government was regarded as certain. When Ships May Be Sunk. Precedents in international law reveal that the circumstances under which neutral Governments have acquiesced in the destructions of their vessels in time of war are very few. The general rule applied is that a bel- ligerent warship must take its prizes into port unless there are compelling reasons, such as_unseaworthiness, lack of a prize crew, danger of recapture and the presence on board of a cargo of con- traband, which would make certain its condemnation by a prize court. The commander of the belligerent vessel must preserve the neutral ship’s papers and bring them to a prize court for the entering of a decree. In the Russo-Japanese war the United States protested to Russia against the sinking of the British steamer Knight Commander with an American cargo. The crew testified that the vessel had been sunk for want of coal to proceed to Viadivostok and the United Staten considered that the sinking of the ves- sel was not justified by the bare facts that there was contraband of war aboard. The fact that wheat is conditional contraband, that a ship would be liable to condemnation only if it were proved that its cargo wae destined to the bel- ligerent forces of an enemy and that ro opportunity was afforded for the furnishing of evidence make officials believe that the case of the United States against Germany is a strong one. During the Russo-Japanese war Great Britain maintanied a long and vigorous correspondence with Russia on _ the right of a captor of a neutral ship to -gink it if it was difficult or impossible to take it into port. Great Britain de- clared such measures ‘‘would occasion a complete paralysis of all neutral trade’ and characterized them as ‘‘con- trary to acknowledged principles of in-« ternational law’’ and “intolerable to all neutrals.’’ J. Bassett Moore’s Opinion. John Bassett Moore, former counselor of the State Department, in reviewing those discussions, said the correspon- denee served to “emphasize the poten- tally important relation of the ques- tion of contraband to the question of destruction.’ “When publicists have spoken of the rresence of contraband,’’ he wrote, ‘ays justifying or excusing the destruction of a neutral ship that could not be brought in, they have no doubt had in raind cargoes composed of things spe- clally adapted to use in war and con- fessedly contraband, such as arms and ammunition, and cannot be assumed to have contemplated the subjection cf neutral commerce to general depreda- tion under an extension of the cate- gorles of contraband.’’ It was believed this would be the posi- tion assumed by the United States in its correspondence with Germany. If the destruction of the Frye were considered an unfriendly act, it was un- derstood the Unifed States probably would seek the usual honorable amends, as well as reparation for the owners. Since the warship and her officers are under the jurisdiction of the United States, owners of the Frye and her cargo can Institute libel proceedings to recover for loss of their property, It was pointed out that wheat was not contraband unless consigned to a bel- ligerent Government or some agent of such Government. The Frye’s manifest showed her bouna| for Queenstown “for orders.” Officials explained that this declaration in the manifest was not unusual and added that circumstances s0 far pointed to the fact that the Frye, as a vessel of a neutral nation engaged in a legitimate voyage, was not subject to seigure or destruction. t | Officers and crew of the Pring ml ee will be interned for the war by the United States Government if the vessel itself is interned.

Clause on Contraband, The owners of the destroyed ship Frye took out a policy for $11,500 with the Government War Risk Insurance Bureau “last October and this may play a part in determining he: status as a carrier of cargo not subject to seizure. The Frye’s policy contained this clause: “Warranted to the best of tha knowledge and belief of the insured, no shipment of absolute contraband will be loaded and that no conditional con- traband will be loaded when the articles constituting such conditional contra- band are destined for the use of the armed forces or of a Government de- rartment of a belligerent state, or are consigned to the authorities of a bellig- erent country who as a matter of com- mon knowledge supplies articles of this Lind to a belligerent state or are con- signed to a fortified place belonging to o belligerent or other place serving as a base for the armed forces of a bellig- erent.” Another clause declares the policy void if the vessel insured carries sup- plies to war vessels of belligerents. When the owners of the Frye agreed to A policy with these clauses, officials here presumed that her cargo:was not consigned to the use of a belligerent nation. The Navy Department issued the fol- lowing statement based on a report to Secretary Daniels’ by Rear - Admiral Reatty, Commandant of .the Norfolk Navy Yard: “Pring Witel Friedrich, German navy, transferred crew from command of gun- boat in China. Officers are regular German officers. The crew came {from the Kaiserin Lutz. The Captain said that the merchant captain is on board now.

EDMUNDS. Professor of International Law in St, Louis University. N the destruction of neutral vessels, | it may be said generally that the Opinion of the United States has been reflected in the British law, from which the great mass of our interna- tional doctrine is traditionally colored. The British view up to the time of the Declaration of London, 1909, is expressed by Oppenheim as follows: “The British practice did not, as re- gards the neutral owner of the vessel, hold the captor justified in destroying a vessel, however exceptional the case may have been, and however meritorious the destruction of the vessel may have been from the point of view of the Government of the captor. For this rea- son, should a captor, for any motive whatever, have destroyed a neutral prize, full indemnities had to be paid to the owners, although, if brought into & port of a prize court, condemnation of vessel and cargo would have been pronounced beyond doubt. The rule was, that a neutral prize must be aban- doned in case it could not, for any rea- son whatever, be brought into a port of a prize court.”’ But the practice of other states has been in conflict with this rule and the London Naval Conférence proposed a compromise in which the only justifica- tion for the destruction of a neutral prize is danger to the captor or his op- erations at the time of capture. But the vessel must be liable to condemna- tion through guilt in one of the three following conditions: 1, Carrying contraband the value of which forms more than half the value of the cargo. 2. Rendering unneutral service un- der the direction of the enemy Gov- ernment, 3. Breaking a blockade. But in no cases in which a neutral vessel is not liable to condemnation may it be destroyed, and in all cases in which destruction is justified must the safety of crew and passengers be pro: vided for and all the ship’s papers pre- served for subsequent adjudication in order to determine the legality of the capture. If the captor fails to estab- lish before a prize court that he de- stroyed the prize in the face of excep- tional necessity, the owners of vesse. and cargo must receive full compensa- tion, without any regard to the ques- tion as to whether or not the capture itself was warranted. Russia’s Extraordinary Precedent, In the Russo-Japanese war Russia is- me « i eee eee Internatioual Law Authority Says This Course Is Permissible Only When No Other Is Practicable and Prize Court's Con- demnation Is Certain. .war time.” sued regulations concerning the destruc- tion of prizes without distinction be- tween encmy and neutral, justifying them on the following cases: 1, When the vesse) is unseaworthy. 2. When the capturing vessel is in imminent danger. % When the captured vessel is of litéle value, 4. OWing to the remoteness of a prize port. 5. When conducting the captured vessel to a prize port would interfere with the success of raval operations. But when Russia began to put this extended code into operation and sank a number of British and German ves sels, it was met by prompt and vigorous protests. The Knight Commander, the first British vessel that was sunk, was carrying foodstuffs and railway sup plies to Kobe, Japan. sier crew and papers were preserved by the Rus- sian cruiser. Mr. Balfour, the Prime Mihister, speaking in Parliament on the subject, said: “If, as our information leads us to fear, she was sunk by a cruiser of the Viadivostok squadron, on the ground that she carried cortraband of war, in our view it is entirely contrary to the practice of nations in The St. Kilda, another British ves- sel that was sunk, carried provisions from Honkong for Japan. Her pro- visions were appropriated before she was destroyed. In this case, as in that of the Knight Commander, the British Government sent the Russian Government a strong protest with a demand for reparation. Russia paid damages in évery case where her prize courts failed to adjudge the capture valid. The case of the St. Kilda, which resembles most nearly that of the Willlam P. Frye, the American vessel sunk by the Pring Bitel Fried- rich, resulted in compensation to the owners. However, since the cargo of wheat on the American Vessel was not consigned to the British Government, or t» the armed forces, there is no pre- sumption that it was contraband at all. Jr the first American note of protest to jreat Britain, our State Department S&vs: “Mere suspicion is not evidence and doubts should he resolved in favor of neutral commerce, not against it.” 7 Mere Possibility Not Enough, The cargo is reported to have been shipped to England ‘‘for orders,’’ indi- cating that no sale had been made, but : ie es aaa eee alate ga “are — = wea , ¥ ¢ agers Sia oe ane ae api BP is Th eae BE Be Ey oy APN ws age oF Ste et pee Pre : Dae 2 29 a ee a cg seives of the best inoheet i might have been sold Government or for the use furces is not enough.

By WALTER SCOTT MERIWETHER, ‘A Staff Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch and the New York World. NEWPORT NEWS, Va., March 11—From the time that she put out from Tsingtau seven months ago until she brought her weary keel to rest in the waters of Hampton Roads the career of the Prinz Eitel Friederich has been as exciting a romance as that inscribed im the log of the Emden, in whose company she traveled for the first few weeks of the campaign. But during ail of that period no direct word of her doings had been received, except some vague. reports that she had been sighted off the Chilean coast and the more definite fact that she had put in at Valparaiso to coal and land prisoners, to clear out again within the stipulated. 24 hours. While the Captain has not made any announcement of the length of his in- tended stay here, there is good reason for believing that her career as a sea raider is at an end. engineers, I learned that it will require at least six weeks to effect the neces- gary repairs to her engines, and by that time the allies will doubtless have a patrol force off the Cape sufficiently mumerous to prevent any dash for the open sea. é «It was shortly after 1 o'clock yester- day morning that a dark shape running without lights camie up the Roads and enchored about half-way between Fortress Monroe. and Newport “News. Dawn showed. the dingiest looking craft that had ever ridden into the waters, grimy black sides, streaked with rust. a full 12 feet of her underbody showing above the waterline, this space thick with barnacles and marine growth. Her once yellow funnels, now painted a lus- terless black, were streaked with crust- ed spray, and. her once bright yellow and white superstructure had been daubed over with dark maroon. Fro / bow and stern gaped 3-inch and 5-ir 7 rifles, while on her main deck an i- ships were six automati¢ guns, three on a side. Name Had BHeen Painted Out. All who looked upon this. strange eraft wondered what she was; on bow and stern her name had heen painted cut. And’ while. those on store were training marine glasses on the mys- tery, eight bells struck on the various harbor craft, and up from the stern of the stranger floated the biggest of German naval flags. Then it was real- ised by the initiated that she was’ one of the German sea raiders, but at_first mone guessed her real identity. The correspondent passing up the Roads on the Old Dominion liner Prin- cess Anne, saw the vessel get under way and herd in for Newport News, | and followed her there from Norfolk. A young officer received the corre- spondents on board. He spoke English very. well, but on the way to the Cap- tain’s quarters let it be known that‘a!l questions should be reserved until the Captain was reached: Captain a Courteous Officer. Capt. Theirichens was engaged with the German Vice-Consul when I was ushered into his presence. He is of the yegular German naval service, and you The vessel was but a week out of port when she sighted a steamer and gave chase. Fresh from traveling on her tegular line, the LEitel's bottom war clean then and her engines in go00é condition. So it took her but a short time to overhaul the stranger, which roved to be the British steamship gost.

The €vrmoran, they said, was hidden in a river, with topmast doused and foliage wreathed about her funnels. The Ejitel made a quick departure. Later they heard they had not been too goon in their getaway. They also heard that the Cormoran, in serious peril that night, had managed to escape, but by the closest shave. “Another interesting circumstance,” the Second-in-command added, ‘‘is, two ships captains we captured are brothers- in-law. One commanded the Floride, the other the Pierre Loti. They had not met in years but at last they met here on our decks on neutral ground,’’ he added with a laugh. “As a final word, you are at liberty t» mingle with any of the passengefs (he did not call them prisoners) and ask them about their treatment on board. I believe they will bear me out in the statement that they have had everything that we have had in the way of food. Officers Measseq With Officers. “The officers have messed with our officers and the seamen have messed with our seamen. Not a thing of their personal property has been touched, and they were allowed to bring with them everything they claimed to be theirs.”’ His prophesy of what the “pas- sengers’’ would say was borne out by subsequent inquiry. Not one, at least not one of the score or more whom I questioned, had any complaint to make cn the ground of food or treatment. Capt. Kiehne.of the Frye frankly ad- mitted "that he had had the best of treatment, that he and his family had been accorded a large stateroom, and that the food was such as was served to commanding officers’ quarters. Their two little sons Herman and James, were disporting about the deck and ap- peared to be general favorites with the ‘| possibly could make it. Stripped of all unnecessary trimmings with none of the luxurious fittings cof her days as a palatial passenger carrier in evidence, and with grim weapons of raval warfare mounted upoa her su- perstructure, she presents a formidable appearance.

The crew of the Eitel numbers 350. Nohe of the bluejackets wear the Eltel hatband, but many of the Tiger and Luchs were seen. Both officers and men seemed extremely young, their average age, I should judge, not being more than about 21. One is particularly impressed with the very cheerful demeanor of all hands; all saving the serious-eyed children, look as if they have been having the greatest lark of their lives. Even the officers, who must have been under a tremen- dous strain guiding the vessel through her many perils, showed none of the wear of it. All seemed exceedingly good humored, most all were smiling, and when I finrolled a bundle of papers which I had managed to cbtain, there was an immediate crowding around and in a few minutes there were dozens of little groups gathered about central fig- ures engaged in reading the news an translating it into German. My last glimpse of Commander Thie- richsen was when a launch of the im- migration service had drawn up to the gangway to receive the women of the cruiser. Then the commander, who had retired to his stateroom for the rest he needed so much, came to the gangway, ard with a pleasant word for all, bade farewell to each as they departed from his ship. And these in turn had a pleas- ant word for the commander. _ It was the Captain’s birthday, too. Upon his table was a miniature battle- ship, made of brown bread, and float- ing upon a miniature sea of parsley.

WASHINGTON, March 11.—Senor Riano, the fpanish Ambassador, in- formed the State Department today that four Spgniards had been assasin- ated in Mexico City, and presented reports of the looting and burning of private residences in the outskirts. He made no specific request for action. Gen. Carranza’s reply to the Amer- ican note was laid before President Wilson today and afterward it was administration circles that the situation looked more en- couraging. Continued efforts, how- ever, will be made by the United States to assure unbroken commu- nication between Mexico City and Vera Cruz and for the cause of the destitute in Mexico City. In his reply as given out at Vera Cruz, Gen. Carranza promised that foreigners in Mexico City would be afforded pro- tection. His assurances to that effect, officials here confidently believed would make it unnecessary for the American Government to-take any steps beyond those already taken. Although officials said that the food situation in the Mexican capital con- tinued to be serious, some of them ap- pear to believe that there had been an improvement in a general way. Word of Gen. Obregon’s evacuation of Mexico City was being awaited and official ad- vices say that the American note had a good effect in that city. Vryan to Get Supplies to Capital. Secretary Bryan said he was working at Mexico City and Vera Cruz for speedy admission of supplies to the Mexican capital. Assurances were re- ceived from Gen. Carranza that foreign- ers would be allowed to use the railroad as soon as the evacuation’ was com- pleted. It is understood that he was encouraging them to withdraw and so to a place of safety. : Up to Tuesday night it did not appear that the capital had ween evacuated ani Bryan had no further knowledge on that point. The Carranza agency here issued a statement giving the substance of a dis- patch from Gen. Carranza saying he had placed 300 railroad cars at the dis- posal of the Mexico City Chamber of Commerce and the Municipal Council for use in transporting supplies and that Gen. Obregon also had given 500,000 pesos at his order. No requests from Americans in Mex- ico City to the State Department for transportation facilities, in response to the warning to quit that city, have been received. Promises to Protect Americans. Gen. Carranza, in answer to the pro- test addressed to him by Secretary of State Bryan through United States Con- sul Silliman, regarding conditions in the City of Mexico, denied the responsibility of the Constitutionalists for a situation which is considered alarming for for- eigners, but expresses the hope that Americans and citizens of other coun- tries will lose no time in departing from Mexico until tranquillity shall be re- stored, The Constitutionalist chief pledges himself to provide every facility for the exodus which he reeommends. He suggests that if foreign residents do not desire to leave the country they should seek safer places in the republic. Gen. Carranza declares that he al- ways has tried to safeguard the interest of Americans and other foreigners and intends te continue this course. The charges that Gen; Obregon Jelib- erately has fostered disturbances in the City of Mexico are denied by Carranza, who: declares every possible effort has been made to distribute food supplies. He contends that the present situation has been aggravated by the conduct of merchants who have protested against the imposition of a humanitarian relief |Z tax.

HOUSE By a Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispateh.. JEFFERSON CITY, March 11.—The Senate at noon today went to the aid of the Democratic insurgents and Re- rublicans in the House in their effort to defeat the administration’s plan to pass the Cornelius bill continuing the contract labor system in the peniten- tiary. : The Senate, as a club over the House, took up for consideration the House resolution to adjourn the Legislature March 16, which would leave only four days for further consideration of billls. In this time would have to be passed all of the big appropriation bills, which would permit very little time for other legislation. Many of the House members who are standing by the administration in the penitentiary fight are “dry’’ members who wish the session to continue until at least March 22, in the hope that some of the dry legislation will be passed. “Read Out of the Party.” The adjournment resolution was called up by Senator Greene of Kansas City, after Speaker Boyd, in an impassioned speech in the House, had “read out of the Democratic party”’ those Democrats who had supported the. Senate prison bill, which is opposed by the adminis- tration. IT Dei | Senator Carter charged that Greene's action was prompted by the “wets” and that the calling up of the resolution was a scheme of the “wets” to have the Legislature ad- journ without acting on any vol the “dry” bills. While there is no doubt nae the “wets’’ would be glad to get an ad- journment, the real reason for call- ing up the resolution this morning was to attempt to force the House to accept the Senate prison bill. ‘Ingargents Join Republicans. The administration had its hardest fight of the session on the prison bill. At the beginning of the morning ses- sion enough insurgent Democrats joined the Republicans to overrule Speaker Pro-tem Fulbright, who had ruled that Representative Ing of But- ler County could not offer the Senate prisOn bill as a substitute for a sub- stitute offered by Representative Cor- nelius to his bill in the House. The Cornelius substitute had been adopted and was up for engrossment. The in- surgents and Republicans carried their appeal from Fulbright’s ruling by a vote of 68 to 66. This eso startled the administration forces that they sent a hurried call for Speaker Boyd, who was sick in bed at his room at the Madison Hotel. Boyd hastened to the House and immediately upon arrival there began a bitter attack on the Democratic members who had voted with the Republicans. He charged that they were disloyal to the party. It was following his attack that the Senate tock up the adjournment reso- lution. Busy Bee Candy Bargain Friday. Black Walnut Nougat, Asst.

On thé eve of tomorrow’s aldermanic primary election the city is being flood- ed with sample ballots sent out by sev- eral voluntary organizations which have undertaken to make siates or selections for the guidance of voters. The Municipal Voters’ League is mail- ing out tts report and recommendations to voters. They were published in the Post-Dispatch yesterday. In addition there is an organization which styles itself the Republican City League, with Joseph McCoy, former secretary of the Republican State Committee, as itg chairman; another organization which calls itself .the Republican Citizens’ Committee, and' the Taxpayers’ Protec- tive League. There are many sample ballots being ciroulated also by the Democratic and Republican City Committeemen. A. He I'rederick is recommended for President of the Board of Aldermen not only by the Municipal Voters’ League but also by the McCoy organization, the Republican Citizens’ Committee, and the Taxpayers’ Federation, which is backed by F. W. Kolkschneider, a North St. Louis brewer. McCoy said his organization had un- dertaken to select a list of candidates to represent all factions of the Republican party. As a general proposition, he said the movement was a revolt against the Republican City Committee, which had made up a slate of candidates. McCoy said the City Committee had exceeded its authority in framing siates, and that it was time the people were getting together and smashing the slates. The city organization, he said, was supported principally by’ a lot of municipal job holders, who were making a profession of politics and attempting to dictate to the people who their alder- manic candidates should be. The members of the Recommendation Committee of :the McCoy organization are: N. N. Tracy, president of the Da- vid Nicholson Grocer Co.; Leon G. Had- ley of the Hadley-Dean Glass Co., Gus- tay W. Nieman, capitalist; Dr. George A. Krebs, James Claussen of the Her- riott Shoe Polish Co.; P. J. Cunning- ham of the Cunningham Woolen Co., ‘and Edward A. Bokern, real estats dealer. Kolkschneider has made up both a Democratic and a Republican slate. His Taxpayers’ Protective Federation rec- ommended Adam Wackmann for presi- dent of the Board of Aldermen on the Democratic ticket. Wackmann is “one of the strongest opponents to the Park- way, and is being supported by Kolk- schneider and his organization for that reason. Frederick said Kolkschneider’s sup- rort of him was entirely voluntary, and that he had entered into no agreement with the brewer respecting his candi- dacy. | Kelkschnelder for McCarthy. Kolkschneider is also supporting John FP. McCarthy, Democrat, for member of the Board of Aldermen from the Six- teenth Ward, and James F. Ford, Dem- ocrat, in the Eighth Ward. Both Mc- Carthy.and Ford are members of the House of Delegates. The Democratic Business. Men’s Con- ference is conducting a campaign for the 28 wards members which it has in- adérsed, and for Francis M. Curlee for president of the Board of Aldermen. The Conference is also fighting the four Democratic members of the House of Delegates,who have filed for nomi- nation. They are Edward Deffaa, Seyv- enth Ward; James J. Ford, Bighth Ward; John R. McCarthy, Sixteenth Ward, and Charles Stuart, Twenty-sev- enth Ward.

Johnson. This announcement was made after a conference participated in by the Governor, Lieutenant-Governor Esh- leman, Rudolph Spreckels, a San ‘Francisco filaancier, who originated the plan, and Charles 8. Wheeler, an attorney, who has appeared as coun- sel for the Western: Pacific in special cases. The movement was started, it was said, on the theory that California's ownership of a trans-continental rail- road would render the State independ- ent of privately controlled railroads. Gov. Johnson has approved the plan, which will be immediately taken up, it is said, with a view to legisjative action and the possibility of a special State election before the end of the year to submit the pro- posal and an issue of bonds to the people. The oe contemplate an exten- —— ere It is believed by the promoters of the project that the railroad coulda be purchased for approximately $50,- 000,000 and that the State would de- rive a net income which would ma- terially reduce .taxes. A thorough study of the possibility of legal ob- structions has been made and it is said that none exist. “If it can be shown that, without overstrain, the State can embark on this venture, I shall present the en- tire scheme to the people of our State for their determination,” Gov. Johnson sald. hed Stomach A 4] Nine-tenths of all cases of trouble nowadays are caused by much acid, In the beginning the stom- ach itself is not diseased, but if this aci@ condition is allowed to continue, the acid is “very likely to eat into the stomach walls and produce stomach ulcers, which may render a radical surgical operation necessary even to prolong life, There- fore, an “acid stomach’ is really a dan- gerous condition and should be treated seriously. It is utterly useless to take pepsin and ordinary stomach tablets. The excess acid or stomach nreeresaety must be neutralized by the —— ee see ne ACTION OF SINGLE ‘SPOONFUL SURPRISES MANY St. Louis people who bought the simple mixture of buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc., Known as Adler-i-ka, are sur aoe at the INSTANT effect of a SINGLE SPOONFUL.

The Mayor said to a Post-Dispatch reporter today that he had decided upon this step reluctantly, as he believed in giving the children a chance to play. MecPheeters Makes Objection. When Police Commissioner McPheet- ers heard of the proposed abandonment of the plan to keep the street closed for one hour, he declared that the plan should not be abandoned at once. He got the Mayor on the phones and told him that reports had reached him which made him convinced that the great ma- jority of the signers of the petition are not really opposed to the children using Governor Plans to Submit Bond Proposition for Purchase of Railroad.

A direct order was then sent to Chief of Police Young by McPheeters to see that the street was kept closed, no mat- ter what other report regarding the matter he may have heard. Opposes Hasty Action. McPheeters said to a Post-Dispatch reporter that in giving this positive or- der he did not wish it understood that he was in conflict with any of the other city officials. He said he knew the Mayor and others were in favor of giv- ing the children the use of the street and he felt that hasty action should not be taken such as would jeopardize all future plans. In New York, McPheeters pointed out, 49 streets are now closed for three hours daily for the use of the children, and the residents of the districts where the streets are closed are so pleased with the working of the plan that they have taken up subscriptions to engage addi- tional play directors for the streets. He said he believes opposition to the plan here will disappear when the residents of the district begin to see how the idea works out. The police, said McPheeters, are charged with the safety of the thou- sands of children in the city and they know the great number of street acci- dents. At the same time it fs practically impossible to keep a large number of children off the streets after school hours. That, he pointed out, is the dan- ger time. || eats % Garden grown and packed whole. W%lb Ceyiée and In- An Appetising Meee |: | > dia Blend Ten.

Your cartoon “Neutrality Wobbling” is bully! te sequel sheuld one of the wob FRIDAY’S PRIMARY. ‘The Post-Dispatch has designated the members of the A. & M. combine running for nominations to the Board of Aldermen as candidates who ought to be defeated. They were obstructionists opposing the completion of the municipal bridge, on plans favoring public interest and supporting plans for the benefit of a gang of speculators. They are not the kind of men to entrust with responsibilities and duties of the first Board of Aldermen under the new charter. The leaders of the combine were DR. FLETCH- ER in the Council and JOHN R. McCARTHY in the House. The other combine members running are, on the Republican ticket, EDWARD SCHOLL, HENRY F. EBRECHT, NATHAN H. HALL, CHARLES A. GROESCHEL, On the Democratic ticket, EDWARD DEFFAA, JAMES F. FORD, CHARLES STUART. In order that voters may understand the exact ground upon which we urge the defeat of these candidates the History of the A. & M. combine is printed elsewhere. For the president of the Board of Aldermen, Louis P. Aloe was a member of the Board of Freeholders and did good service in framing the new charter. He is in sympathy with the spirit and. purpose of the charter. A. H. Frederick, ‘lwho is a man of good character and reputation, ig supported by reactionary elements. Henry |W. Blodgett. is a man of ability and was a fair official as United States District Attorney and Election Commissioner. He has not been iden- ‘Itified with municipal work. . Another member of the Board of Freeholders and an excellent candidate is Clinton E. Udell, ‘lalSo a nominee for the Republican nomination in the Twenty-third Ward. Of the Democratic candidates those selected by the Democratic Conference Committee are preferable ‘to their opponents, who represent ward organizations and factions. Many of the conference candidates have no opposition. Vote for the best available candidate for each Ward. a aS ovo —_—_eo EFFEOTIVE IRONY. State Senator Gibson of Texas, advocating a compulsory education law: “IT have always thought jt was the duty of the parent to provide for the child, but the opponents of this measure have almost convinced me that the child should support the parent.” = = 7—~_—=_ | WAKE UP, GOV. MAJOR. Gov. Major declares that if the Legislature fails to act on the prison labor problem, he will wait until the present contracts expire, on Jan. 1, 1916, and then keep the convicts locked up during his entire last year in office. He says the money cost would be much-less than the $200,009 cost of ‘a special session; but does not speak of the great- er cost in demoralized idle convicts. He adds: After such action as that I think the people would awaken to the fact that we have a grave problem to handle there. But the people long ago awakened to the fact. The Governor, his appointees and his adherents in the -Legislature are the only ones that need awakening. a _ ball _PILE-GNAWING BOSSES SHOULD QUIT. Senator Reed, en route home from Washington, voiced in St. Louis his own protest and the pro- test of intelligent Missouri against the bill wreck- ing direct nominations. The reform of the primaries was followed by re- sults in this State°giving the highest incentive for carrying the movement further in the perfec- tion of the system in details and the addition of the short ballot. But reactionary machine bosses who have been gnawing a file ever since the in- troduction of the new principle, have planned to destroy these results and force unwilling voters to return to the old method. Here is a part of Mr. Reed’s statement on the fatuity of this attempt: I very earnestly desire and insist that United States Senators shéuld be nominated in State-wide primaries, which afford all citi- zens the amplest opportunity to express their choice fully. This is in accordance with the spirit of the constitutional amendment which provides that Senators must be elected by direct vote of the people. The right was gained after a struggle which lasted nearly a century and which was waged with great vigor by the leaders of advanced thought for the last 20 years. The new method has al- ready borne fruit: of the most satisfactory character. The Senate today is fully as repre- sentative of public sentiment as the House. Senator Reed is right. His statement, which is in harmony with the spirit in which he conducted his own campaign for election, should end all effort in behalf of this obnoxious bill at Jefferson City. Senators are not the only officers for whom citizens should have the amplest opportunity to express fully their choice. In jamming the bill through the Senate the Democratic leaders took an action worthy of an Aldrich-Cannon reac- tionary. Even Penrose no longer dares to deny .tthe value of primary reform. ee 7 PUBLICITY ’S GREATEST VICTORY. Just about the time the British authorities had become convinced that conscription was inevi- table, they decided as a tentative and unpromis- ing substitute to resort to advertising. Summaries are now being made up on the astonishing result. Under the direction of a publicity expert, England’s need for fighting men was advertised as a kodak, a breakfgat food, a 1915 motor car model, acorn cure, might be of that inquiry.”’ haven POST-DISPATCH, ‘(THURSDAY EVENING, MARCH 11, 1915. ping them. All conscription projects have been] abandoned as hopelessly out of date. Such an outcome of the war as would show that the goods-delivering liner can safely replace na- tional regimentation, that the display “ad” can render militarism’s burdens unnecessary in time of peace, would be particularly gratifying in this. country. Why worry about national defense when our “adcrafters” are the most gallant-and capable and resourceful in the world? England was not forced to experiment with the lure: of the trading stamp. That is a recourse we have in reserve. THE FRYE’S CASE. With regard to the sinking of the American ship William P. Frye by the German auxiliary cruiser Prinz Eifel, President Wilson covers all. pre- liminary ground when he assures the country that “a most searching inquiry will be made and what- ever action is taken will be based upon the result The cargo and destination of the ship, with the conditions under which the vessel was sunk, will determine the legality of Commander Thierichens’ act. On the face of the first statement of the case the act seems to be a violation of interna- tional law, but final judgment should await in- vestigation. In view of Germany’s protest against Great Britain’s treatment of grain destined for German civilians, as contraband, the sinking of an American ship freighted with grain appears whol- ly unwarranted. The facts should serve as a basis of a sound conclusion. Having taken strong ground in our note to Ger- many with regard to the sinking of neutral ships, we must act in the light of the facts: We must protect at any cost American ships, crews and/ passengers from lawless destruction. = = rv CLEVELAND’S EXAMPLE. Cleveland’s municipal electric light and power system is selling current to 10,000 Cleveland con- sumers at 3 cents per unit, or less, down to 1 cent for 150 large consumeys. Its competition has forced its rival, the Cleve- land Electric and Illuminating Co., to reduce rates to large users of power sufficiently to save them between $800,000 and $1,000,000 yearly. Its service lines are being extended throughout the city, and more consumers every week are taking its 3-cent service in preference to the pri- vate company’s 5-cent to 10-aent service. These and other facts concerning Cleveland’s latest experiment in municipal ownership, were reported in the Post-Dispatch Wednesday, in an article by a staff correspondent, who visited Cleve- land and got them at first hand. Frederick W. Ballard, Cleveland’s city light commissioner, is here as the guest of St. Louis civic societies, telling St. Louis audiences how Cleveland did it, and what more Cleveland intends doing. This subject should engage the close attention of all St. Louisans. They should be especially interested in Mr. Ballard’s statement that St. Louis can buy coal for making electric current 12% per cent cheaper than Cleveland. If Cleveland can pay for a $3,000,000 electric plant. with sales at rates ranging from 3 cents per unit down to 1 cent—and the Cleveland plant, its principal station opened only seven months ago, is already on a paying basis—why cannot St. Louis, with cheaper coal, enjoy a similar benefit?

VOTE FOR 28 CANDIDATES, FOR ALDER- MEN, AND FOR ONE CANDIDATE AS PRESI- DENT OF THE BOARD. >= = * —_— ae A-BUCCANEERING IN THE FIRST CABIN. No official log is required to picture the seven- months voyage with but one. stop of the Hitel Friedrich. One can see her splashing her swift way over sunny seas with every awning stretched. The 350 passengers, officers and seamen she has taken from captured merchant vessels form vivacious groups on her decks, tango, fox-trot, sing, absorb cooling drinks and delightfully pre- pared lunches, for there is much good fare aboard. | Night and day the fine German band under the awning pushes ravishing sounds out over the water—“Mrs. Van Winkle,” “My Wife’s in Europe,” “Follow the Crowd,” “She Wore a Tulip and I Wore a Rose,” " perhaps “Nights in Bur- gundy,” for the band on a German liner is of cos- mopolitan tastes and even in war time would not disdain alien enemy themes. Oh, this dashing cruise of the Hitel will live long years in fiction as well as in history. What impromptu amusements went on under moonlit tropical skies, with gaiety and love-making and the beginning of veritable romances under cir- cumstances the strangest since the world began! And the expectancy! Always there was the chance that a prize might be sighted. That meant a thrilling incident, and how an incident, even an unthrilling one, provided it adds variety to experi- ences, delights those on shipboard. A prize, too, may supply delicious things for the bill of fare, and, better still, new and charming personages as companions in the revels of the red rovers. The probability that a\hostile cruiser with guns just a little bigger and propeller that turns just a little faster will come up some day and end the fairy cruise by shooting the Eitel full of holes is just strong enough to add the spice of danger. - Why couldn’t we all have been captured end captivated by the Bitel, and taken on one of those long sea voyages our physician recommends? What attraction will the costliest transatlantic ferry line hereafter have to offer one who has gone a-buccaneering as a first-cabin passenger on a 265-knot, 30,000-ton, twentieth-century free. booter with electric lights and wireless?

By Egbert Warring. ITHIN the space of a brief flit- WW ting minute, Doctor Aber- nathy spoke half a dozen words that pronounced the seeming doom of Walter Thorne. Within an hour the young man in question had analyzed the situation and was philo- sophically resigned to it. Then he pro- ceeded to his office and called in his confidential bookkeeper. “Close up everything,” he ordered briefly. “I am going out of business.” The man of figures gasped. He was familiar,’ however, with the peremptory Ways of his employer, and made no re- mark. “T shall turn our commissions over to Jones & Co.,”" proceeded ‘Thorne, “and they probably will re-employ the office force.”’ * Within the week Thorne saw a new mame on the glittering plate-glass win- dows, paid up all his debts, sent to his unele in another city the capital he had supplied to start him in business, and gave up his elegant club. A _ friend came to see him at the hotel where he _ ‘Was stopping temporarily. “What's this I hear, Thorne?” he chal- lenged. “You are going to leave us?’ “Must,” assented Walter in his char- acteristic, sententious way. ‘For good?’ “Forever,” was the solemn response. “Oh, going to get married?’ Walter smiled at this. Scarcely! And he shook his head in positive negation. “Going abroad?’ “No, not that far. You see, my phy- sicilan has given me just six months to hye. Something wrong inside of me.

He counted up his resources, amounting to some $20,000. He had donated half of that to a school for indigent juveniles. Five thousand dollars he had sent to a poor, remote relative. He calculated that $1000 would be abundant to die on, and the other four went in indiscriminate c 3 $ Walter finally settled on the Ozark mountain region as a final destination He approached the same by slow stages. The last 100 miles he made on foot. He felt weary at times. The lack of hope and ambition gave him a mo- tiveless sensation. One thing he no- ticed, however: He was eating with an +) appetite now, a rarity for 10 years past. Another discovery was the fact that kie mind acquired a new vigor in a “healthful groove. Where before busi- ness and ite driving cares had been all- absorbing, he commenced to take a rare interest in his surroundings and in hu- manity in general. Walter envied the ruddy health and strength of the owner of some little farm. where he stopped for a drink of water or a meal. The singing brooks, the happy birds, the blooming flowers y) charmed him. His mind grew serene, his soul clarified. One evening he was belated by a gtorm between towns.

Walter experienced renewed interest as he saw a common hand cart appear. A girl —— it, a strap running har- nessiike from the propelling handles across her shapely shoulders. In the weird, flickering light about her she was a rare picture of earnest, healthful industry. There was a cheery token of duty and vitality in her beauti- ful face that enchained Walter. He asked a man who she was. “That's Netta Oliver,’”’ was the reply; “the sweetest lassie on Beaver Creek. Her father and mother are both ill, and she has buckled down to keeping the flour barrel full, like the jewel she is.” Walter stopped at a hotel that night. He could not get the face and name of the girl he had seen out of his mind. The next day he made some further inquiries about the Oliver fam- ily. He found that they were too poor to afford a horse and wagon. He pit- ied the girl, who night after night did the service of a beast of burden, dragging the racketty hand cart over the uneven country roads. He made a whimsical resolve. Two mornings later, seated in a stout, light wagon with a sturdy horse attached, he drove into the yard of the little 20-acre farm where Netta Oliver lived. She was among the vines, wearing & neat, cover-all apron. Her radiant eyes somewhat abashed him as he asked for her father. He found the latter and his wife seated comfortaBly on the porch of the little cottage, con- valescing from an attack of chills and fever. “T’ve heard of you, Mr. Thorne,”’ spoke Walter. “I am an invalid in quest of health. I like this spot. Could you board me for a few weeks?” A Well, Sound Man, Again. ND then Walter went on to tell that he had a little money, but that he would give the rig he | bought for a month's board. For 3 golden days Walter Thorne found a new interest in life. He be- camé a real worker—and a lover. Day by day thé gentle, lovable Netta grew more and more précious to him. Her parents were up and about now, and the one desire of the father was to ob- tain an additional 80 acres of land. It would mean a fortune in time, ha claimed, and then Walter was sorry he had given away his money. One day Walter went to town. He proceeded to tMe office of the leading physician. He left it with an eager, hopeful face. “You are a perfectly healthy man,” the doctor had said. ‘“‘Whatever threat- ened you two months ago, your new life has neutralized.

COMBING WON'T RID HAIR OF DANDRUFF The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ouncés of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retir- ing; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. Do this tonight, and by morning most, if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more ap- plications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every 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 at once, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store.

Kelly overtook one of the fugitives at Jefferson avenue and Mills strect. He said he was John McCartny, 19 years cid, of 3222 Magazire street. He and Frederichs admitted having taken six pairs of socks from the display case. They also admitted being implicated in a robbery’ at the Novelty Theater, 2530 Faston avenue, last Friday.

Mayo Denies Through Lawyer That Scranton Woman Even Was His Wife, NEW HAVEN, Conn., March 11.—1l ais is Virginius J. Mayo’s reply to ths charge made in Scranton, Pa., by Mrs. Fiorence Mayo of that city that he mar- ried her in Binghamton, N. Y., and 15 years ago in New York City deserted her and their three young daughters: “The woman referred to is not now and never was my. legal wife.” This explanation—the only one given —did not come from Mayo directly. It was made public by Benjamin Slade, his attorney. “Neither Mr. Mayo nor I will say anything more than that this so-called Mrs. Mayo never had any legal claim upon him,’’ Slade declared. ‘““When I quote him as saying that*she is not now and never was his legal wife I want to emphasize the ‘never was’ in order that it may not be thought that perhaps he once was her legal husband and a divorce separated them.” Suffer From Piles no matter how long or how bad—go to your druggist today and get a 50- cent box of Pyramid Pile Remedy.
