VON WIEGAND. A Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch and New York World. (Copyright, 1914, by Press Pub. Co.) POSEN, via The Hague, March 31, via London, April 13; delayed in transmission from Germany.—Here are some of the things Gen. Fried- rich von Bernhardi, whose books have been used to make out a case against Germany in this war, told me today in the first interview granted any journalist since the war began. That victorious Germany would benefit America instead of — endangering it. That he has never been an advocate of war for war’s sake. That he is not a militarist, but has merely dwelt upon the his- torical fact that the days of wars have not yet passed, and has pointed out that wars have not been without their good points in the evolution of the world and th@ development of That Germany does not and ‘ fiever has dreamed of world empire or world conquest. That his writings have been ‘misinterpreted and in some in- stances wilfully distorted. Gen. von Bernhardi has written * pome articles with his own pen in his own defense for American pa- pers, but until today has consistently , Meclined to talk to newspaper men. ‘German Victory Not Menace.’’ “Nothing could be more absurd }®han the statement that our victory be a future danger to the United in South America,” Gen. von i declared to me. “Quite ‘the contrary, if America has reason “fo fear a clash with any European | Power, that Power is England. Its .sgmarine militarism and the absolute ‘@omihion of the seas which England claims for herself, wherewith you ; rill have to reckon in time; that’s pyour danger, if England comes out | the stronger. | - Victorious Germany would coun- | terbalance, and to some extent para- ‘fJyze England, which could only be fin the interest of America. There's hardly even a bare possibility that @ Germany and America could ever be * {mvolved. You have only to look back into your history, and to watch the trend of events in this war ‘so far to become convinced that the pos- sibility does not exist of the inter- ests of America and England, which touch on countless more points than America and Germany clashing. “Quite aside from the possibility of clashing commercial interests, it is most doubtful if England, jeal- ously claiming, as she does, the ab- solute dominion of the water, will t look with particular pleasure at the growth of the great American navy; and it is most probable that America will both want and have a big navy in the future. World Dominion Not Avocated. “I emphatically deny absolutely that Germany has or does entertain any idea of world conquest or world empire, as so often represented. That {8 a false representation and a dis- tortion, so far as my writings are concerned.

S. Inventor Announces. NEW YORK, April 13-—It was an- nounced today that a new form of storage battery made for the United’ States submarine L3,s under construc- tion at the Portsmouth (N. H.) navy yard, will do away entirely with the chief danger now existing in: the opera- tion of submarines—chlorine poisoning. Other improvements are claimed for the new battery, among them being the lengthening of the vessel’s under-sea cruising radius to 150 miles. It is claimed that in addition to elim- inating the peril of poisoning, the sub- days without danger of asphyxiation to the crew. Miller Reese Hutchison, chief engi- neer at the Edison plant in Orange, N. J., who made the announcement, said that the danger of chlorine poisoning was eliminated by the substitution of a potash solution for sulphuric acid, now used in the batteries. The potash, he said, would purify the air in the submerged vessel, absorbing the car- bonic acid gas exhaled from the lungs. The lead lining of the hard rubber bat- tery jars, Hutchison said, also would be dispensed with. The only metals in the new batteries will be nickel and steel. The batteries have been tested for two years, it was stated. Mrs. John Eyre Sloan, daughter of Thomas A! Edison, will christen the new submarine. REINDEER MEAT LIKELY 10 BE PUT ON AMERICAN TABLES Alaska Now Has G5 Herds With a Total of 57,872 Antmals; 980 Native Ogrners Share Pfofits. WASHINGTON, April 13.—Reindeer meat may soon make its appearance on the American table as the result of ef- forts now being made by the Depart- ment of Interior.through the Bureau of Education to introduce it into the con- tinental United States. It is said to possess a flavor as fine, almost, as that of venison. Heretofore virtually the entire supply of reindeer meat was needed for home consumption, but recently there has been such a surplus that Government officials had decided to ‘open up this industry for the Eskimo natives. The meat has appeared on the menu in din- ing care of transcontinental ratlroads and is said to have met with instant favor. At present there are 6 herds of rein- deer in Alaska, aggregating 57,872, an in- crease of 22 per cent in the last year. From the sale of meat and hides, 989 native owners last year received an in- come of $77,934. KANSAS EARS DRINK MOVIES Censors Forbid Pictures Showing Hilarity of Drunken Men. TOPEKA, Kan., April 13.—Hilarity of the wine supper, glittering scenes of the barroom and meanderings of the old town ddunkard will have no place in the mov- ing pictures shown to Kansans while the State film censors are at work. The censors began their duties today and a film containing pictures in which a young man at a New York cabaret drinks *wine from a dancer’s slipper while she sits on his lap, was the first one to be classed as unfit. Five other films were censored because of barroom and gambling scenes. The only drink- ing scene admitted was of a man who drank from a wineglass at his dinner. One in which a drunken man appeared was stricken out. s AUTO WIRELESS FOR BORDER WA IGTON, April 13.—Through the use of powerful automobile wire- less outfits, the signal corps is plan- ning ¢o0 establish a complete line of communication by radio along the entire Texas border and across Ari- zona and New Mexico to California, so that the military commanders from headquarters on the West Coast and at San Antonio on the east, can dis- pose of their troops rapidly and to the best advantage to preserve neu- trality along the Mexican border. One of these outfits has been built here and thoroughly tested at Fort McIntosh, Tex., and has a sending radius of about 260 miles. Writes 7800 Words in Hour.

AUTO IN COUNTY NOT IDENTIFICD Coroner Finds He _ Lurched Against Wheel Guard of Machine. CALLS DEATH ACCIDENTAL Testimony Shows . Man May Have Tried to Jump on Behind Machine. County authorities have been unable to establish the identity of a man who lurched against the rear wheel guard of an auto on the North and South road, near the Manchester road, at 11:2 o’clock last night and was killed beneath the wheels. Marks upon the guard indi- cate the man was struck by it and that he had not been hit by the front of the car. After hearing the testimony of A. F. Williams of 6153 Vernon avenue, who was driving the car and A. L. Moore of 3918 Olive street and H. C. Ostertag of 2940 Palm street, who were passengers, Coroner Bopp decided death was accidental. “Three women ho were passengers in the car were not questioned. Williams said he was driving south upon the North and South road about 100 yards north of the Manchester roaa when he felt something scrape along one side of the car and the next mo- ment felt the rear wheels bump over something. He said he was positive there hai been no one in the roadway in front of the car. The other men in the car also felt the bumping of the rear wheels. The auto was reversed and the man was found lying in the roadway. He died while being carried to the sa- loon of Joseph Vorce. Men in the sa- loon said that the man had stopped there a short time before the accident and taken two or three drinks. The man was unconscious from the moment he was picked up. He appeared to be a laborer about 45 years old, about 5 feet 6 inches tall and weighing about 140 pounds. There was no money in his pockets ang not even a label or laundry mark upon bis clothing. He wore three pairs of rs and a blue shirt. There ig a large brick yard near the scéne of the accident where sometimes as many as 100 menre given* tempo- rary employment, but none of the work- ers there today could remember hav- ing seen the man who was killed. PLAYER’S AND KINSEY'S PAY $8000 UNDER NEW CHARTER Increase of $3000 Uphéld by City »- Counsellor; Old Delegates to Ask for Aldermanic Salaries. City Counsellor Baird gave an opinion today to City Auditor Sheehan to the effect that Comptroller Player and Ed- mund R. Kinsey, President of the Board of Public Service, are entitled under the new charter to salaries of $8000 yearly, instead of $6000, as formerly. In view of this, each of these officers today,re- ceived a check for $1760, the amount due under increased salaries from Sept. 1 to April 1. The opinion stated that the new charter makes such radical changes in the work of the two officlals as to amount to new offices and also that the increase was authorized by an appro- priation ordghance. Hearing of this decision, several mem- bers of the old House of Delegates de- cided to apply for salaries of $10 a month as Aldermen instead of $3 a month, as under the old charter. James B. Conroy presented a payroll made upon this basis to the auditor. The auditor has not ruled as yet upoz this effort to collect salaries as Alder- men. The total payroll presented for the Delegates is $24,562.61. This includes $3% for Andrew Gazzolo, who was Speaker of the House until December. If the Delegates obtain payment upon the basis of Aldermen they will get $895.83 each. 412-MILE ALASKAN DO6-TEAM RACE WILL START TOMORROW | Four Teams Already Entered aad Purse of $2000 Has Been Raised at a Kermiss at Nome.

URGED DUTY UPON WOMAN After Victory He Demanded That Mrs. H. B. Clark Tell of Deed of Trust. Although Republican City Chairman Johr?’ Schmoll, according to authorita- tive information obtained by the Post- Dispatch, was notified of Frederick’s crooked transaction .with the Night and Day Bank on Monday morning preced- ing the election of April 6, and was told that Frederick would have to sign a resignation before the fraudulent col- lateral would be delivered to him; Schmoll himself refused to take the responsibility of exposing Frederick, but three days after the election demanded that Mrs. Howard B. Clark and her mother, Mrs. Anna Weinheimer of 6170 McPherson avenue, make the exposure. Had Schmoll made public the facts which were in his possession tWe day before the election, Frederick probably would have been defeated, instead of being elected by a majority of more than 22,000 votes. Schmoll wag with George B. Webster, attorney for the bank, and also attorney for the Repub- lican City Committee, when the notice of Frederick’s fraudulent transaction with the bank was given to him. Web- ster was present when Frederick’s res- ignation was signed. Tells of Meeting Schmoll. Mrs. Clark told a Post-Dispatch re- porter that when she went with her mother to the city hall last Friday to investigate Mrs. Weinheimer’s deeds of trust, she was met in the Recorder’s office by former SWteriff Louis Nolte, a brother-in-law of William H. Hau- schulte, who renewed the $3500 deed of trust for the Goessels, after Frederick had been paid off. “Mr. Nolte conducted us first to the office of Assistant City Counsellor Daues,’’ Mrs. Clark said. ‘After Mr. Daues had examined the deeds of trust he said that the Mayor must be in- formed immediately. Hé ran out of his office with my deeds of trust in his hand and I ran after him trying to get them back. In the Mayor’s office I met Mr. Schmoll. I did not know then that he was Republican city chairman. “After he had heard the facts, he said: ‘“ “Mrs. Clark, you have got to expose this man, Frederick.’ . “IT asked him why I should expose the man, and told him all I was interestea in was getting my money back. “You Must Expose Him.” “*You owe it to the public to ex- pose him,’ Schmoll said. * “I told Mr. Schmoll that I owed the public nothing; that I merely wanted to get the money due on the deeds of trust.’’ “*Oh, but you must expose him,’ Mr. Schmoll continued, ‘the public must be informed about this.’ “I said that if there was any exposing to be done, that Mr. Schmoll ought to do it himself. I did not wish to let the facts. become known at that time, but was practically forced to do so.”’ Chairman Schmoll is president of the Tower Grove Bank, at Grand avenue and Juniata street, and resides at 3626 Utah place.

A. H. Frederick, accompanied by his wife, his son-in-law, H. F. Hunter, and his lawyer, Henry Kortjohn, and ‘under| guard of a detective, left Kortjohn’s of- fice in the Mefrchants-Laciede Building at 2 o’clock this afternoon,.and started in an automobile for the Municipal Courts Building, to arrange for bond for Frederick’s release. nearly three hours before the departure. Kortjohn telephoned to the Circuit At- torney’s office, shortly after 2 o'clock, that bond would be arranged’ within a short time. Circuit Attorney Harvey has insisted on $10,000 as the amount of the bond. The party arrived’at the Munici- pal Courts Building at 2:16. An hour before his departure from his home, Frederick suffered a :.ervous col- lapse, and he was unable for a time to start downtown in the limousine which the attorney had sent out Frederick, in conversation with his at- torney, indicated he expected bail to be furnished for him by Henry W. Kolk- schneider, a brewer, who led the opposi- tion to thé central parkway and who es- poused Frederick's candidacy for the presidency of the first Board of Alder- men. Detectives, upon orders from Circuit Attorney Harvey, began their surveil- iance of Frederick shortly after the lat- te? returned hdme yesterday afternoon {from St. John’s Hospital, where he had been in seclusion since Saturday eve- ning. Two detectives were conatently on duty in three relays, so that six dif- ferent detectives were with Frederick during the night and this morning. Two detectives, the first to arrive at the Frederick home, stayed from 6 to 11 Pp. m., when they were relieved. They were met at the door by Attorney Kort- john, to whom they explained their mis- gion. Kortjohn took them to a rear room on the second floor, where Frederick, fully dressed. was lying upon a bed. Frederick appeared extremely nerv- Frederick was in his lawyer's office}- cus at frst. Kortjohn introduced the detectives to Frederick, who shook hands with them, saying he was glad to see them. Kortjohn -explained the detectives mission to the family. In the house, besides Frederick and Kort- john, were Frederick’s wife, daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. H. F. Hunter of’ Milwaukee,’ and two boys The family objected to the presence of detectives in the house, and Kort- john telephoned Circuit Attorney Har- vey, who personally instructed the de- tectives he would hold them person- ally accountable for Frederick’s cus. tody. One detective agreed to wait out- side, but the other remained constantly at Frederick’s side. All the while Frederick kept urging Kortjohn to get into communication with Kolkschneider and arrange for bond for him, so0 the detectives could take their leave. Kortjohn insisted bond could not be arranged until morn- ing, and Frederick appeared to be dis- appointed. “I have instructed Mr. Frederick not to discuss his case with anyone,” At- torney Kortjohn told Detective Kaiser. The latter promised not to try to in- terrogate Frederick. Mrs. Frederick became more and more excited and finally, Kaiser report- ed, the situation became so awkward that Frederick suggested a game of penuchle. Mr. and Mrs. Frederick and a Mr. Wines, a neighbor, started to play, inviting the detective to join them. The detective declined, saying he did not know the game. Kalser, in reporting his stay at the Frederick hora, said that Frederick acted like a ‘swell gentleman,” and re- peatediy offered him wine and cigars, and occasionally asked if he did not want a drink of water.

He will be indicted within & few days for forgeries in lower d grees on several other counts. The penalty for forgery in the first degree is a minimum of ten years in the penitentiary. The maxi- muni sentence is not fixed by law, and could be for life. a He will also be indicted for forgery in the ‘Night and Day Bank’’ case. ‘- Frederick was technically arrested at his home, 6186 West- minster place, at 6 o’clock last night in advance of the return of the indictment, Circuit Attorney Harvey thinking it to take this step to insure holding him for trial | Frederick, when notified Circuit Attorney would give him until night to arrange bond, drove downtown in an automobile with his wife and son-in-law, H. F. Hunter of Milwaukee, and for ‘two and one-half hours was closeted in conference with his attor- ney, Henry Kortjohn Jr., at the latter’s office in the Merchants- Laclede Building. At 2:15 p. m. the party drove to the Municipal Courts Building, after notifying the Cireuit Attorney by telephone that Frederick was ready to give bond. 3 . The Post-Dispatch today presents exclusively the detailed inside story of Frederick's forgeries perpetrated on the Night and Day Bank, and how that bank discovered them through the Post-Dispatch’s investigation, before the aldermanic election, of similar transactions Frederick had with the Me- chanics-American National Bank in 1910. | The Post-Dispatch was informed on unquestioned authority today that Republican City | .N iol and Day Bank Monday morning, April 5, the day before the election, that ‘Frederick would have to sign a resignation before the fraudulent collat- eral, which he had pledged with the bank, would be delivered to him.

This brings the total of Frederick deeds, held to be worthless, up to oe ) The first day’s investigation by the ~~ jury of Frederick ’s ed transactions revealed these startling facts: That Frederick was required by the Discount Committee of the Night . and Day Bank, at 4 p. m., Monday, the day before the election, to sign — a resignation as President of ‘the Board of Aldermen in the event that, if elected, he did not voluntarily resign. That he had pledged with the Night and Day Bank four deeds of trust of an aggregate face value of $5600 to secure & loan of $3550, and that by the use of forged notes he had released on the books of the ~ =.

The property against which this deed of trust was issued was at the southeast corner of Jefferson avenue and Utah street. The book. in the Recorder's office showed that this deed of trust was released on the margin by Frederick June 18, 1911, and was therefore The $700 deed of trust was executed by the Jessie Morris Realty and Investment Co. to A. H, Frederick as trustee for W. E. Dearth, Aug. 9, 1911, and was record- ed in book 237, page 202. It wds given to secure also the payment of six semi-an- nual interest notes for $21 each. This deed of trust was against a 172-foot lot : Walher on Billon avenue. The record shewed that Frederick this deed of trust July 14, 1918, and that therefore it was also in six, 12, 18 and 2% months. It was issued against a 175- foot lot on the south line of Devonshire avenue, On the east bank of the River des Peres. This was the only one deeds of trust released. The records at the city hall showed that Frederick had produced what purported to be the notes described in the deeds of trust when he released them. As the genuine notes secured by the deeds of trust were pledged | with the Night and Day Bank to se- cure his loan there, there was but one possible conclusion to be drawn by the grand jury, that the notes which Frederick produced to obtain the re- lease were forgeries. .

William F. Switzler, manager of credits of the Mechanics-American Bank, followed Hill into the grand jury room, Switzler made the first discovery of Frederick’s fraudulent dealings, and he was able to supply some facts with which the president of the institution was not familiar. After President Hohenschild had told his story to the grand jury, Cir- cuit Attorney Harvey interrogated Mrs. Anna Weinheimer. William H. Hauschulte, a real estate dealer and director of the’ Northwestern Bank, took with him into the grand jury room the cancelled deed of trust on the Gossel property on North New- stead avenue, and the cancelled check for $3,626.87, which he had given to Frederick to pay off the obligation of Gossel to: him, Signatures Are Compared. A comparison of the signatures on the canceled deed of trust, which was known to be the genuine signatures of Frederick H. Gossel and his wife, Ger- tie Gosgsel, with the signatures on the deed of trust held by Mrs. Weinheimer, which she purchased from Frederick, showed clearly that the signatures on Mrs. Weinheimer’s papers were forged. The forgery of a deed of trust con- stitutes forgery in the first degree, and the statute of limitations does not run against that offense. The minimum punishment for forgery in | the first degree is 10 years in the penitentiary. . Mrs. Weinheimer was stunned when “she came out of the grand jury room. She had faintly hoped that through some technicality it might be developed that the $3500 deed of trust which she held was the genuine instrument. She dropped, almost exhausted, into a chair which stood near the door, just outside of the grand jury room, pale and trem- bling. Tears streamed down her cheeks when she announced to her daughter, Mrs, Howard Clark, that she was now convinced that her security was worth- leas. Loan From Central National. Ben F.. Edwards, president of the Cen- tral National Bank, was called to Cir- cult Attorney Harvey's office by tele- phone to discuss a loan which the bank made to Frederick! less than 30 days ago. Frederick obtained a $2000 loan from thé bank, giving real estate deeds of trust as collateral security... The bank recent- ly caused an investigation to be made of this collateral. President Bdwards told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he be- Meved the collateral was good. The bank, however, is relying principally upon insurance against forged papers to protect it against logs. Mrs. Clark and her mother were called again to the grand jury today. Hayden and Meininger, Hunsche, Buder and sev- eral other witnessés in the different banking transactions of Frederick were also wponnes again. STATUE BY BITTER | UNVEILED Gouda?

Mrs Frederick excused herself, and she called several times to her husband that it was after his bedtime; but Frederick sat up with the _ detectives, talk- ing about topics of current interest, particularly the war, never mentioning his own case or the recent local elec- tion. He sat up until nearly 4 a. m., and after that the detectives sat in a room opening into his bedroom, with the door ajar. Owing to the arrange- ment of the doors, nhe could not have left without being seen by them. Greeting to Reporters. The detectives were made welcome, one of them said, except that Mrs. Fred- erick said she thought one enough. They replied that both had been sent there on orders, and that they hoped they would not be asked to remain outdoors. She made no further objection. Reporters who knocked on the door this morning seeking information, after finding that the: doorbell had apparently been disconnected, were confronted by Hunter, who angrily bade them “Go to bell.” He later amended this mes- sage by telling them to go to Attorney Kortjohn, who, he said, was the “mouthpiece” for Frederick. ‘“‘The next one who knocks,”’ he added, “will do it at his own risk.’’ ONE OF FARSONS OUT ON BAIL Indicted With Others tn Chicago for Alleged Irrigation Bond Fraud.

HEARD OF BANK DEAL Organization Then Recom- mended Curlee for Election; Other Forces Backed Winner. , The nomination of A. H. Frederick for President of the Board of Aldermen in the primary election, March 12, marks one instance in which the people tri- umphed over the politiciana—or, ia oth- er words, broke the politicians’ ‘‘slate.”’ There were many influences which contributed to the nomination of Fred- erick. He was not supported by any member of the Republican City Commit- tee, the strength of that organization being divided between Louis P. Aloe, member of the Board of Freeholders that wrote the new city charter, and Henry W. Blodgett, former United States . District Attorney. Frederick was recommended for nom- ination by the Municipal Voters’ League, a voluntary organization which recommends candidates at each State und municipal election; the Independent Voters’ League, an anti-Catholic organ- ization; the Republicari City League, a voluntary organization; the Taxpayers’ Protective Federation, headed by Hen- ry W. Kolkeschneider, and another or- ganization known as the Independent Republican Committee. League Considered Two Men. The Municipal Voters’ League operates by sending letters to all the candidates for office, requesting them to furnish full information about themselves. They are requested to answer questions as to their age, education, business and offi- cial experience, and to give the names of three men as references. Letters are scnt to the persons given as references asking them for information as to the character and business standing of the candidate under investigation. The League, in the consideration of Republican’ candidates for President of the Board of Aldermen, confined its discussions principally to Aloe and Fred- erick. Members of the League say that ac that time there had been no intima- tton of his traffic in fraudulent deeds of trust. He had served two terms as Fresident of the Board of Assessors, and also on many commissions for the assessment of damages in which the city was one of the litigants. ~Aloe’s excellent work as a member of the Board of Freeholders was strongly urged in his favor by members of the Executive Committee. The committee was almost evenly divided between Aloe and Frederick, but the point that influ- enced tke committee to indorse Freder- ick was that Aloe, during the election last fall, was made to appear as the campaign manager of Judge Karl Kim- mel. There had been public criticism of Judge Ktmmel’s career as Judge of the Munticipal Police Court. The league refused to indorse Freder- ick for the genéral election, but indorsed Francis M. Curlee, his Democratic op- ponent. The league had received infor- mation about the Mechanics-Americar Bank transaction, and made an investi- gation which resulted in the indorse- ment of Curlee. The league sent Lu- ther Ely Smith, one of the members of its Executive Committee, to see Walker Hill, president of the bank, relative to the Frederick deed of trust. Hill re- fused to give Smith any information, as he had refused to give information t+ the Post-Dispatch, Frederick Made Explanation. The league then sent one of its mem- bers, E. A. Hildenbrandt, also a rea) estate dealer, to see Frederick about the transaction. Hildenbrandt reported to the: committee by telephone that Frederick thought that he had not been guilty of any wrong-doing in connection with the bank affair, and he had made an explanation concerning a building deal which was not directly concerned@n the bank transaction. His explanation was that he had taken a deed of trust on a plece of property on the under- standing that a house was to be built upon it, but that the contractor failed, and he was himself compelled to erect the building. Hildenbrandt was invited to attend the last meeting of the Executives Com- mittee of the league, having been in- formed by telephone that the commit. tee had decided to recommend Curlee. He merely answered that he was dis- gusted, and refused to attend the meet- ing. The league also considered Fred- 4 erick’s public statements that ‘“‘To the victor belongs the spoils,’’ and prob- ably would have turned him down ‘n the genera! election if it had not als» had information of his questionab'a dealing with the bank. The members of the Executive Com- mittee of the league, who pass upon the qualifications of candidates, are Luther Ely Smith, Flint Garrison, Dr. M. A. Bliss, Ernest W. Stix, Fred J. Herzog, Charles P. Fox, P. J. Wielandy, John A. Meisel, E. A. Hildenbrandt, Thomas H. McKittrick, Frank P. Crunden and Benjamin A. Wood. days in advance of the election.

An elderly man appeared at the Re- corder’s office a little before noon with @ $4500 deed of trust about which he made anxious inquiries. The deed was found to be genuine, but it was marked ‘‘r&leased by A. H. Prederick,”’ although the deed was not canceled. The man appeared greatly agitated, walking up and down in the corridor. He refused to give his name. The deed was to property on Newstead avenue, in city block 3615. It was mada March 2, 1912, by the Jessie Morris Real- ty and Investment Co., a Frederick cor- poration, with M. Fernich, a Frederick employe, as trustee and W. E. Dearth, another Frederick employe, as third party, It was released Feb. 2, 1913. Another man appeared with five Fred- crick deeds, sent for examination by Cashier A. H. Pinkel of the State Bank of Waterloo, Ill. Three of these were found to be all right, but two of them were marked released on the record, but were not canceled. One of the two was for $2200 on Cook avenue property, city block 3737, \gde by Esther Ellis, with Morris Fernich as trustee and W. E. Dearth as third party. It was marked on the reccrds ar “released by A. H. Fredgrick.” The other was for $2000, made by Mika Drda and wife to W. W. Nferaus, cash. ier in Frederick’s office, witn. Frederick as trustee. It was marked, Feb. 18, 1914, “released by Peter Oberman.” Another deed of trust negotiated by Frederick, on Which someone, whose name has not thus far been made known, appears to have lost $2500, was discovered this morning, when inquiry was made at the Recorder's of- fice as to a deed coverthg the property at 1739 Marcus avenue, The records showed that a loan of $2500 was made on the Marcus avenue property, Jan. 15, 1910, to O. H. P.: Grundon and wife, now of 3854 Cleve- land avenue, by W. W. Niehaus, an of- fice employe of Frederick, with Freder- ick as trustee, and that the deed was released by Rudy E. Block, July 14, 1910, ' The deed about which inquiry was made was apparently a wer been of this genuirie deed, and had never bee recorded. . Has a Duplicate Deed. Another, and perhaps the oldest yet discovered, questionable Frederick deed of trust. came to ught in the after- noon. It was a duplicate of a dead covering a $5000 loan made Jan. 30, 1907, and bore the same date as the original deed on the Recorder’s book. ° A young man, who deciined to give his name, but said he represented his mother-in-law as holder of the deed, took the document to Recorder Joy’s of- fice to be examined. The original deed was made by the Chapline Realty and Construction Co., by its president, George Chapline, to W. B. Dearth, with Frederick named as trustee. It was canceled Jan. 24, 1910, by Frank J. W. Masek, who made an affidavit that the notes had been paid and delivered io the maker. Chapline made an affidavit that five interest notes for $137.50 had been destroyed. Chapline’s signature the united vote of all St. Louis Repub- ticans.”’ What Was Said of Frederick. Of Frederick, it sald: “Successful business man; hag had public service; record unimpeachable. Experienced pre- siding officer; 55 years of age. Former president of the St. Louis, Missouri and National Real Estate Exchanges.” The Republican City League also rec- ommended H. S. Koetzky of the Third Ward, who was short more than $700 in his accounts with the Laclede Gas Light Co. last October. The day before the election sample hallots were sent to every voter in St. Louis by an organization calling itself the Independent Republican Committee, The names of the promoters of this or- ganization were withheld. Voters were urged to down the politicians. Fred- erick’'s name appeared on this ballot ag the candidate indorsed by the organiza- tion. The Independent Voters’ League char- acterized both Aloe and Blodgett as Americans, but printed Frederick's name in black-faced type on the sample ballots it distributed, and recommended his nomination. As between Francis M. Curlee and Adam Wackmann, the Dem- ocratic candidates, it made no recom- mendation, classifying both as pro-Ro- manists. The nomination of Frederick was a surprise to the politicians. Republican ty Chairman John Schmoll and Mayor 1 both supported Aloe, Frederick re- ved approximately 22,000 votes in the } election; Aloe, 19,00), and Rlodg- t. 12,00 SS was attested by H. J. Parsons, secre- tary of the company. No Certificate of Record. Recorder Joy declared that, although lt bore the registry stamp, the dupli- cate deed had never passed through his office, as it bore no certificate of rec- ord. The duplicate varied in some re- spects from the original, notably in the description of the property, in the use of “Geo.” instead of “George’’ in Chap- line’s purported signature, and it bore no corporation seal and no attestation of the secretary. The notary public who took the acknowledgements in the original deed was Alfred @ickets but Frederick was the notary in the dupli- cate. The young man said that $2200 had been paid on the note and that shortly before the present expose Frederick, out of friendship, put up collateral worth $2400, whereby the holder stands: to lose only $400. He declined to Bay anything more about the transaction. |PROPERTY OWNED BY FREDERICK A. H. Frederick's assessment for taxable property is $11,120, of which $1300 is personal property. His West- minster place home is assessed at a valuation of $4370, a lot on Bartmer avenue at $4300, a lot on Hereford Street at $150 and one on Hodiamont avenue at $1000, His personal proper- ty assessment is $1300, The assessment of the Jessie Mor- cis Realty and Investment Co., which Frederick heads, and which bears his wife’s name, is $76,740 ,on 20 pieces of property in different parts of the city. The assessment is made on a two- thirds basis, so that Frederick’s as- sets can be figured at not less than $17,600, and those of the Jessie Mor- ris Co, at not less than $112,000. In addition to these St. Louis re- sources, Circuit Attorney Harvey has been informed that Frederick owns a valuable summer home and a yacht in Wisconsin, and a farm worth about $30,000 in Illinois.

Lillian Ebeling Testifies Realty Man on Trial Turned Over Mortgage Payments to Uncle. Testimony at Clayton this morning in the trial of Beverly C. Stevens Jr., real estate dealer and Colone] on Gov. Ma- jor’s personal staff. who ts under iIn- dictment on charges of fraud and lar- ccny in a deed of trust transaction, was regarded around the courtroom as. fay- orable to the defendant, although it was furnished by witnesses for the progecu- tion. : Col. Stevens is a nephew of Beverly C. Stevens Sr., who is under between 70 and 9% indictments as a result of a grand jury investigation into his real estate transactions. Col. Stevens wae formerly an employe in his uncle's of- fice, but last summer went into business for hi if. The principal charge in the indictment is that he sold a deed of trust on some property in Home Heights upon’ the representation that it was a first mort- Kage on the property, when, in fact, there was a prior lien. The indictment charged that the deed of trust, which was sold to George H. Reichard, 2631 South ee street, bee 8 valueless. ent of His Un Abereny Tous Nolte, for ‘the defend- ant, brought out that the value of the property over and above the claims against it under the first mortgage, was more than sufficient to secure Reich- ard’s investment and that the deed of trust is therefore valid. Other testimony ‘seemed to be that Col. Stevens’ activity in the entire af- fair was that of an agent to his uncle, tc whom he turned over all payments and who signed the receipt therefore. Mrs. Lillian Ebeling, first witness for the prosecution, testified that she and her husband bought some property in Home Heights in 18 on which there was a mortgage of $3000. She offered receipts to show that her husband paid $1100 on this note Jan. 11, 1910, and $1400 June 22, 1910. The note itself was of- fered in evidence. It did not. have the Both payments, the witness said, were made to Col. Stevens, whq a handed them to his uncle. Deed of Trust Not Released, Jan. 22, 1913, Mrs. Bbeling testified, she and her husband borrowed $200 and gave a deed of trust to secure it. Pive ard. Mra. Ebeling said that she self paid the $200 to Col. Stevens July #0, that he handed it to his uncle and that the elder Stevens: gave. her a | al cetpt. The deed of trust, however, has not been released, the witness said, and she and her husband stand to lose $2700 in all. interest notes of $90 each on which ap- peared alleged forgeries, but Judge Me- Elhinney sustained an objection of the defense on the ground that they had nothing to do with charges in the indict- ment. On cross-examination Nolte obtaines an admission from Mrs. Ebeling that the property is worth $3000. The two deeds of trust againts it would make aggre- gate claims of $3200. pees Appointment of Frederick on Street Opening Commission Set Aside. . The appointment of A. H. Frederick as one of three commissioners to assess damages and benefits in the condemna- tion of‘ property for the opening of Kennerly avenue, from Clara avenue to Goodfellow avenue, was set aside today by Judge Kimmel, and Sidney Schiele was appointed in his place.

This (hold on tight) road is the most direct route (man‘overboard) to the Sunset Hill Country Club, which will be a favorite resort of automobile owners when the spring and summer (thankyemum) social season opens. Great hopes were built on the new driveway which was planned ultimately to extend all the way to Sunset Inn. Au- tomobilists who have tried the road have found that other things besides hopes also were built on it. Road Still Ig in Sectio ss. The road was constructed in sec- tions, but sectional feeling must have been running high at the time. Each section seems to be pursuing a pol- icy of its own, without*‘the aid or consent of any other nation. They are in agreement only on one point—the free and unlimited’coinage of bumps at a mileage rate of 16 to 1. As planned on paper the _ road looked all right in the abstract, but it didnt turn out so well in the con- crete, Steel binding rods which cross the road at intervals of 25 feet are caus- ing most of the trouble complained Bumps in the improved section of Gravois road, caused by the projection ether are shown in the accompanying picture. 0 job will be accepted. of by automobilists. There are two of these steel rods at each joint in the road. The rods originally were a quarter of an inch thick when they were set in the ground less than six months ago, but in places they are now worn down almost to the thinness and sharpness of razor blades, making them a seri@us men- ace to automobile tires. In building the road rods were placed in the ground be- fore the concrete was poured in. Their purpose was to prevent the road from slipping,’ as it had only a clay base and to take up the contrac- tion and expansion due to changes in temperature and thus prevent fhe concerte surface of the road from cracking. A coating of pitch was placed over each steel joint.

Besides the defective joints there are many depressions in the new road and wagon traffic already has worn two distinct ruts in the center of the driveway. Estimated Cost Is $20,000. This stretch of road, 5600 feet long and 20 feet wide was built on the petition of August A. Busch, Harry B. Hawes and George S. Johns, who have. country homes near the Sunset Hill Country Club. Busch contributed $5000 toward the cost and other property owners pledged themselves to put up a like amount. The estimated cost of the road was $20,000. The County Court agreed to authorize the county to pay half the cost, if property owners would pay the other half. The work was done by the Fruin & Colnon Construction Co., which gave a bond to turn the road over to the county in good condition. William Elbring, highway engineer of St. Louis County, today said the road would not be accepted until the defects are remedied. This, he said. will make it necessary to remove and rebuild sev- eral sections of the road this summer.

It would be such an utter mili- tary impossibility for us to maintain ourselves there; would bring all South America, not to mention En- gland and France, against us, and for what purpose? What possible chance would we have? “A legitimate commercial rivalry with the United States, yes.

Only 6 years old, and looking young- er: tall, erect, with the unmistakable marks of a thinker about his head; iron- gray hair and beard, forceful of manner —Bernhardi is a man of strong person- aifty, and still has about him the ap- pearance and air of the typical, dashing cavalry officer. Not being at the front, he was in the now rarely seen blue uni- form, the white and black ribbon of the Iron Cross his only decoration. Retiring five. years ago, he devoted himself to writing. Offering his serv- ices at the outbreak of the war, he was made Acting Commanding General in Posen, where he received me. . Gen.. von Bernhardi.denies emphatic- ally that he had anything to apologize for in his books, and there was nothing apologetic in his talk at any time. “Events have fully justified what I’ve writen,’ said he. ‘I saw from the po- litical’ coristellation of Europe that war would be forced upon us, .and- that it was inevitable, and that as far as we were concerned, unavoidable. I pointed this out in plain language. I wanted to arouse our people to a realization of the fmperative necessity for properly arm- ing and preparing as defensive meas- utes. I believe that I did my country a service. Have the much-talked-of things that I wrote of come true? “We didn't want this war, despite all that has been said to the contrary abroad. I’ve never advocated nor writ- ten of an aggressive policy toward En- gland.” War a Terrible School. Gen. von Bernhardi denied that his books. had done Germany more harm than good, or that few people in the country were of his mind. ..‘‘It has been disproved by many letters I have re- ceived,’ he said. He admitted that his books had had _ greater circulation in America and England than in Germany, and that they have been used as propa- ganda against Germany. “That is because the words of vital For instance in the English copy of my Future End,’ the Bagiish existed in. South America before thef radical militarist and glorifies war, the General said: “I am not and never have been an advocate of war for war's sake. I take the standpoint of historical facts. War is a fiery crucible, a terrible training school, through which the world has grown better. War makes for devel- oping and maintaining the power of a people; it creates a consciousness and a spirit of freedom and independence [through that power. War is a terrible thing, a national calamity as seen fron. the standpoint of the individual, but an evil that has not been without some good. “Don't misunderstand me. AlJjl wars are not moral wars or for bigh moral principles. There come times when a nation must go to war Would you Americans say that the war of 1775 against England was not a good war? That the war of 1812 was not for a moral principle productive of good? That i86l was not the beginning of a war for the highest principles of human free- dom, by which the entire world benefit- ed? Refers to Seizure of Panama. ‘Could the moral principles involved in your wars have been lasting and fit- tingly settled in any other way? Your seizure of Panama was justifiable only on the ground that the future interests of the American people are higher and greater than the abstract principles of international law.’’ “Is this the last great war?’’ I asked “No; but the wars become less fre- quent and the causes and grounds against war become more and more idealized.”’ “Is there many?” “Absurd,” said the General; emphat- ically. ‘“‘There is not, and there never ras been a specific military ,party the object of which has been war. There have been those who believed the politi- cal conditions made it necessary to arm and prepare for the defense of Germany, and events have justified them.”’ ‘“‘What would be productive of the quickest peace?’’ » “A great, decisive German victory,’’ replied Gen. von Bernhardi instantly. Beyond this, however, he would not dis- cuss the probable conditions on which Germany would make peace. Discussing Japan's position in China. he remarked that Japan’s demands were a serious blow to American interests in China. He was of the impression that America and Japan will sometime come to a clash though he is not one of those who believe that a great war between the yellow and white races is near. Speaking of the difference between En- glish and German colonization, Gen. von Bernhardi said that England is more inclined to exploit her colonies, especial- ly India and the Far East, where her people live as they did hundreds of years ago, while American and Ger- man colonization, although on a com- mercial basis, is more cultured, and does more to advance, uplift anu improve thea living condition of the natives. He indignantly denies that the famous passage in his book—“Groups of Ger- foans abroad benefit German trade, but may also be useful to us politically, aa we discover in America”’—meant that Germany could or would bring pressure favorable to her to bear on the Govern- ment where these groups live, as has been charged against him in America.

The house is upon a steep hill three miles out of town and Rose has passed many of his Sun- days, and sometimes other days there, during the last three years. “I love to sing,” said Miss Williams to the reporter who saw her at her Ozark home, ‘‘and I am a member of the camp- meeting choir.

For instance, the harsh cathartics and violent purgatives used by our forefathers to relieve constipa- tion are now known to be not only unnecessary, but really harmful. Con- stipation can be more effectively re- lieved without the discomfort and pain these old-time remedies occasioned. A combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, sold in drug stores under the name of Dr. Caldwell’s Sy- rup Pepsin is most effective, yet mild and pleasant.

Then, with- out thinking, I said to him laughing- ‘ly: ‘What's the trouble. You seem jbroken up. I guess you must be tired of our engagement or have another 'girl somewhere.’ ” | Miss Williams said that the re- mark seemed to make the Inspector decidedly nervous and-he left soon afterward: She said she felt worried and mentioned her suspicion to an old friend of the family living in Fort Smith, Ark., who at the time had a Federal position. The next she heard of the matter, she said, was two weeks later when two Post- ffice inspectors she had never seen efore, called at the farm house and aid that a complaint regarding Rose ad been made to the department. Miss Willlams said she told the in- spectors that she had met Rose about four years before at the railroad sta- tion where he spoke to her while she was awaiting the arrival of a friend. She said he told her that he was a postal inspector and was often in the neighborhood and asked permission (te call upon her the next time he was in Ozark. From that time on, she said, Rose has been a frequent visitor at the farm and has sent her two or three letters every week. Miss Williams said Inspector Rose told her he was a single man and gave her an address in Springfield, Mo., as being his home. She introduced him to all her friends and he made no se- cret of his attentions to her. She said she considered herself. engaged to hiin after he presented her with a diamond ring and a gold locket containing his photograph. Up to that time Miss Williams said she had been “‘Kkeepin@ steady company”’ with a young’ ,business man in Ozark, but gave him up in response to the wishes of the inspector. When Inspector Rose was asked re- garding the case by a Post-Dispatch reporter, he at first’ denied knowing Miss Williams and said that he had not resigned, but was home upon sick leave. Later he said that he knew the girl slightly, but would mot discuss the af- fair. Mrs. Rose said that she knew of the trouble, but did not care to say any- thing about it.

LOUIS FIRM FOR WILHELMINA CARG Prices That Would Have Been Received in Hamburg for Food to Be Given. LONDON, April 13.—The British Gow ernment has agreed to purchase the car- go of the American steamer Wilhelmina and to compensate the owners for loss. An agreement to this effect was reached today between the W. L. Green Commis- sion Co. of St. Louis and the Govern- ment, m The Wilhelmina, an American steamer, sailed from New York for Hamburg, Jan. 22, with a general cargo of food products. She was taken into custody by the British marine authorities when she was compelled to go into Falmouth because of damage suffered in a gale. Under the agreement of today Great Britain agrees to pay the price the own- ers would have realized on the cargo; had it gone to Hamburg and also to compensate the owners for the loss re- ceived in consequence of the ship being stopped. A referee to be named by Walter H., Page,. the American Ambassador, and Sir Edward Grey, the British Foreign Secretary, will determine the total amount of the payment due to the own- ers. The transfer of the cargo will take place as soon as this referee has been agreed on. The owners will unload the cargo and deliver it to the British Gov- ernment. The ship herself will then be free to proceed immediately, as there is no action against her.

The re- quest was transmitted by the German embassy in Washington to the State De- partment. A preliminary survey by experts from the shipbuilding company here disclosed that at least three weeks will be re- quired to make the Wilhelm seaworthy. The fact that the Wilhelm will require considerable attention before she can be made seaworthy, it was believed, may eventuatiy cause her to be interned. Commander Thierfelder, however, insists that he is anxious to have his ship re- paired as quickly as possible in order that he may renew his merchant vessel raiding.

Correspondence of the Associated Press. ¢ warfare. CHANAK-KALESSI (Dardanelles), March 13.—(Written five days before the battleships Bouyet, Irresistible and Ocean were sunk in the straits.) The first phase of the efforts of the Britis and Freneh to force the Dardanelles demonstrated that this task is far more difficult than was supposed at first, ac- cording to Turkish opinion. The heavy bombardments on Marc and 7 of the defense works near this town and Kalid Bahr, as well as the futile attempts to clear the channel ef mines the night of Merch #44, dhow Mat the waterway tramp the Mediterranean to Constantino- ple fs better defended than British and French authorities may have thought. For the last six days the works giving entrance to the inner Dardanelles have not been bombarded and during the last two nights no serious attempt at mine clearing has been made. While it is true that the allies have succeeded in silencing the forts of Kum Kale and Sidd-El-Bahr, and two posi- tions of minor importance near there, it would be fallacious for the allies to assume that this had lessened material- ly the proportions of their task. The positions at Kum Kale and sidd-E1-Bahr were reduced easily because it was pos- | sible to take them under enfilade fire.. In addition a slight advantage in range made it possible for the British to throw so great a weight of metal into these forts that almost from the first there was little chance that the Turks could hold them. Allies Gained Little. But the allies have gained little by this thus far. Today Turkish infantry holds the ground about the silenced bat- teries. An attempt by the allies on March 4 to occupy Kum Kale and Sidd- Hl-Bahr ended in a rout of the landing party, of whom 70 or 80 »were killed in action and others drowned. The losses of the Turks were: At Sidd-El-Bahr, four killed, 14 wounded; at Kum Kale, two killed, 21 wounded. : The landing party of the allies was supported by a heavy fire from the Brit- ish ships which ventured so close to the shore that even their machine guns could be brought into play. Two other attempts to land troops met with no greater success. Meanwhile the expenditure of ammuni- tion by the French and British has been prodigious. The Associated Press cor- respondent has been able to ascertain himself that it has led to small results. On March 6-7: the allies threw into Fort Medjidieh and other works about KIlid- Bahr no less than 854 shells, most of them of the largest caliber, without do- ing any serious damage. Only one man was slightly hurt by a flying clod of earth. Shells thrown in the direction of Fort Hamidieh on the Asiatiz shore near this town proved equally harmless. As the result of about 800 heavy shells and over 700 lighter projectiles thrown into Fort Dardanus during the last two weeks One man has been killed and one severely wounded. The damage to the fortifications Consists in the bending of ® small armor plate which for a long time interfered with the manipulation of the piece whose crew it protects. Allies Fired More Than. 4500 Shells, The Associated Press correspondent estimates that during his stay in the fire zone the British amd French have fired more than 4500 shells at the posi- tions. On the whole, the fire of the British especially has been well direct- ed, taking the artilleryman’s point of view. Whatever success the British and French have attained so far is at- tributed here to the longer range of the heavier guns and the fact that, un- molested by the Turkish gunners, owing to a shorter range of the pieces in the forts, they have been able literally to cause a rain of shells. The, ships never anchored, but kept circling about and when the shelis from the Turk forts fel] at all nedr, lost no time in getting out of range. In spite of this, the Turkish gunners. have made some very good scores in the last 14 days, obliging four of the allied vessels to undergo ex- tensive repairs. In the main the fire of the allies has been rather scattered and unmethodical. The ships entér the bay north of Kum Kale and Sidd-El-Bahr and usually be- gin to fire in all directions. For this the batteries of the Turks are responsi- ble to @ great extent. Bach day the British vessels discover that the pieces have shifted from the point where it was thought they had been silenced on the previous day. : No sooner are the British vessels with. in range than an avalanche of shells be- gin to fall close about them. This neces- sitates first of all that the batteries must be found and an attempt made to silence them.

L. F. Ottofy, attorney for the will contestants, asked Mrs. Campbell whether Lois Campbell, now Mrs. E. G.

Ottofy asked whether, in 1891 or 1892, she had a girl in her home who was represented as her daughter. She re- plied that sbe did not. Mrs. Campbell testified that in 1890. Margaret Campbell, now Mrs. Wil- liam H. Harrison of Cincinnati, ana one of the plaintiffs in the case, came to the Campbell home because she could not get along well with her stepmother. Margaret was a niece of James Campbell. The witne- de- clared that the girl stayed only three months because Mr. Campbell didn’t like her. She denied that she gave Margaret a gold watch to stay. After denying that she had undergone a surgical operation in 1892, she said in response to a question by Attorney Ot- tofy that she had always been in gogd health until five years ago, when Lois fell from a train in Nebraska. “Since then I have not been so well,’’ she said. “I have had so much trouble in the last five years, as you all know, that I have not been so well, but other- wise I have always been a healthy woman, “IT have always kept very good hours and never dissipated any; never drank or anything like that, like most women who like these things.”’ Mrs. Campbell was asked if she did not lock herself in her home at Grand and Washington avenues on one occa- sion, causing the servants to make a search for her. An objection was sus- tained. Objection was also sustained to a question whether she did not, in 1898, tie her hands and feet when in her home at Grand and Washington beautiful flowers. - We specialize on individual style in Hats at this price, as well as our higher priced ones.

See AB Nig eat sie ‘ + Bpecia) to the Post-Dispatc ' BALTIMORE, April -Pygisbon -* read with deep _ message of the Pope, as made ae through the Post-Digpatch to _ the ' + American people, calling upon them to “work unceasingly and disinter- | _ estedly for peace, to the end that the ~ terrible carnage and all its attend- and hororrs and miseries may soon cease.” “Assuming the interview with Pope edict XV is correct,” said the Car- ~dainal, “it reflects great honor on the 2 ‘ paternal heart of our father, who from the beginning of his pontificate has manifested a deep and earnest _. desire for the cessation of hostilities in Europe and the shedding of . Christian blood. ; oe “IT am most pleased to see the Pope ~ thas confidence in the power of the pe rentdent and people of this country te bring about peace. The combined Pope might have been expected to say in the circumstances. We depre- cate, however, attempts in any quar- ter to attach importance to particu- Jar words or phrases ascribed to His Holiness until we learn on some bet- ter authority that they were the words he actually used. “The favor shown to the corres. pondent by granting him an audi- ence at all, and still may be send- ing through him a “message to the American people,”’ is very exceptional, and we cannot but feel that the selec. tion for this honor of a journalist of German blood, and with pronounced German sympathies, may be liable to misinterpretation in many quarters. Interview Called Uatactful. “This gentleman has been the recip- jent of the confidences of the German Crown Prince, of the Grand Admiral von Tripitz, of Count Zeppelin, and ef the commander of a German sub- marine within the last few months. nas —Cardinal said this afternoon that he interest the Breer ; ae Bo SAT oe pct saree “ts ee i at efforts of the Pope, President Wilson ac sort tay be “That the pen, which has recorded | nie | their views upon the morality and the conduct of the war should have been permitted to announce the views of the Pope upon peace is, to say tie least, un- tactful. By singular coincidence the comments of the leading clerical jour- nals in Germany and Austria, such as the Kolnische Volk-Zeitung and the Vi- enna Reichpost, reached us simultane- ously with the first accounts from the} implements for carrying on this terri- United States of the interview. “The inference will occur to many that a concerted effort is being made to bring the authority of the Pope to bear at the fame moment upon the people of Ameri- ca and upon the German and Austrian public. A project of the kind would be entirely in accordance with the under- hand ways of extra-official German diplomacy, and the reasons why it shotid commend itself to Emperor Wil- liam are sufficiently obvious. “We should be last to take exception to the manner in which the Pope inter- prets his duties, for the discharge of which he is not answerable to any hu- man judge. Weare confident that no Christion, to whatever ‘communion he may belong, can work for peace or pray for peace until wrong has been righted, until wrongdoers have been punished and until mankind has obtained securi- ties that the wrong will not be renewed. “In this sense we can sincerely wel- come the words attributed to his holi- ness. They can but encourage the allies. for the allies are striving to shorten the war in the only way in which it ean be shortened, by securing the complete and permanent triumph of the cause of jus- tice and of right.’’ Archbishop of Cincinnati Would Put Embargo on Arms, By Telegraph to the: Editor of ispatch.

EAR ts aN 2 ‘ Shot SE as ; TUESDAY EVENING, APRIL 13, 1915, AFFAIRS OF BANK THAT SUED | McADOO UNDER INQUIRY Department of Justice Investigating Alleged Irregularities.as Reported By Comptroller— Fued On For Two Years. By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Poet-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, April 13.—In answer to the suit filed against him, Secretary McAdoo and Treasurer Burke, by the Riggs National Bank, charging perse- cution, Comptroller of the ‘Currency John Skelton Williams has given ae a statement saying “recent investigda- tions of the bank’s affairs disclosed ir- regularities and unlawful practices on the part of certain officers of sufficiert importance to merit their reference to the Department of Justice.”’ That de- partment, he says, has engaged the services of Louis D. Brandeis of Boston as special counsel in the case. Th? Comptroller says the bank is solvent, and the interests of the depositors have been safeguarded by the actions of the Camptroller’s office. The suit of the bank filed yesterday is the culmination of a two years’ feud hetween the Riggs National, the largest financial institution in the capital, an‘ the Comptroller. Former Senator Bailey of Texas is attorney for the bank. The first public break between the bank and Secretary McAdoo came a few days after the Secretary took office. He found that a young woman clerk of the bank for several years had occu- pied a desk in the inner offices of the ‘ireasury Department, and he requested her to vacate the premises forthwith. The bank officials said she had been placed there to facilitate the routine business between the department and the bank.» But gossip credited her with being the go-between through whont in- side information of the department reached the bgnk ‘even before the Sec- retary of the Treasury. Charge $5000 Was Withheld. Charwing that in defiance of law and in violation of their official oaths, Sec- retary McAdoo, Comptroller Williams and Treasurer of the United States John Burke have been guilty of a system of persecution against it in order to rnin its financiai standing, the bank obtained a temporary injunction re- straining these officials from continuing their alleged unlawful practices against the institution. Under this order they will be restrained from paying {nto the treasury of the United States $5000 with- held from the Riggs National Bank, representing interest on Government bonds, as a fine assessed by the Comp- troller for failure to make certain re- ports. The bill sets forth that as a part of the plan to embarrass the institution, the Secretary of the Treasury and the Comptroller of Currency withdrew §1,- 20,000 of Government funds deposited in the bank. It is further charged that the Comp- troller called on the Riggs National Yank for special reports wholly imper- tinent and irrelevant to a full and com- plete knowledge of its condition, there- by imposing upon the officers and em- ployes a useless amount of work. It is also alleged that the Comptroller has, ‘fin flagrant violation of law, assessed erormous penalties against the plain- tiff under the guise of exercising the authority conferred on the Comptroller Yof the Currency.’’ The bill goes on to state that on Dec. 4, 1913, Secretary McAdoo summoned the officers of the bank to his office ay charged them with having inspired cer- tain articles which appeared in a New York newspaper bearing upon the mer- ger of the United States Trust Co. and the Munsey Trust Co. “The defendant, McAdoo,” the bill charges, “in the official office assigned to him as Secretary of the Treasury, arose from his chair and advanced men- acingly toward Milton E. Ailes, a vice president of the plaintiff bank, and in great anger shouted, with a blasphem- cus oath, ‘I will order you out of my office,’ and then turning to Charles C. Giover, president of the plaintiff bank, gaid to him, ‘Mr. Glover, you know what this means to the Riggs National ran.” “ Government Deposits Withdrawnt. The bill avers that in May, 1914, Sec- retary McAdoo arhitrarily eliminated the Riggs, Bank from its’ normal share of the Dist-ict of Columbia tax moneys deposited with the other national banks of this city. When President Glover asked for an explanation of the Secre- tary’s action in this matter, according to the bill, the Secretary replied that the Riggs Bank did a relatively small commercial business, and added: “It is my purpose to withdraw all Govern- ment funds from the Riggs National Bank.’’ The bill then recites tn detail how Messrs. McAdoo and Williams ‘“‘con- spired to ‘take away from the plaintiff bank the Panama Canal funds and did effect their withdrawal in the amount of $1,158,479 and thus effected the with- drawal of nearly $2,600.00 at ai time when all banks in the United States were making strenuous efforts to hus- band their resources.” A letter addressed to the Comptrol- ler of the Currency, dated March 3, 1915, and signed by Charles C. Glover, president; M. HB. Ailes and William Fia- ther, vice presidents, and made public by the pfficials of the bank, contains this passage: “You kept the regular Bank Exam- iner for this district, with an assist- ant, employed, in an eamintaion of it from Noy. 13, 1914, to Jan. 16, 1915: and when that unprecedented examina- tion disclosed nothing which would sup- port your attack, you brought an Ex- aminer from another district, and or. dered him, in co-operation with your regular Examiner, to conduct a special examination of our officers, under oath.” In a statement issued by the officers of the bank they bave this to say: “Th break between the bank and the Comp- troller of the Currency is not over the condition of the bank or any matter affecting its assets or obligations. The solvency of the institution is beyond al! question. Its capital of $1,000,000 is backed up by a surplus of $2,000,000, an. both capital and surplus are absolute'y unimpaired.”” Brandeis Made Investigation, Replying to the charges, Comptroller of the Currency Williams made the fol- lowing statement, which represents the 7% k ; ; °] oA SN » 4 rs se #. ‘ ; ; : See . é st * “RRS +. et $5 ‘ State : 7 cx : rs b) a Se : Sie Risa SE TRS a $Seiahse te" Gs?

Asks $50,000 for Breach of Promise. NEW YORK, April 13.—Miss Blizabeth Gilmore, a young English actress, who played with Robert Edeson in “‘Where the Trail Divides,”’ has filed suit in the leging breach of promise of marriage against Seymour Guthman, who is con- nected with the novelty firm of Guth- man, Solomons & Co. In support of her claims, Miss Gilmore has placefi in the hands of her attorney 18 atdent love letters she says Guth- man sent to her. of In an affidavit she relates in detail her friendship with Guthman. Accord- ing to her affidavits she was intro- duced to the defendant last August In front of the Palmer House, Chicago, by a man named Hammersiag. Wooed Ardently, She Says. Guthman, the complaint alleges, paid her marked attention and entertained her lavishly, besieging her with tele- phone messages, letters and telegrams. In October, she swears, after promising to marry her, Guthman induced her to go to Minneapolis with him, where she remained a week. After she returned to Chicago, she says, he continued to write endearing letters, and, in Decem- ber, sent her money to come to New York, where she arrived Dec. 1%. She says she was introduced to Guthman’s friends here as his wife. In the letters in possession of her at- torney, Miss Gilmore is addressed _as “Honey Dear’’ and ‘“‘My Dearest Eliza- beth.” They are signed “Your pal, Seymour.” In a letter dated Oct. 3, “Beymour’ says in part: “It seems to me as if I have known you for the longest time, and I don’t know when I have met a girl who has so tremendously impressed me in so short a time. Honey, I don’t want to wax romantic and tell you all the won- derful things I am thinking of you, so I will defer saying them until I see you, which I hope will be on my arrival in Chicago. All dear thoughts and with a world of affection, I am, your pal, | “SEYMOUR.” “You Are a Dear.” Another letter contains the following: “To see you again and be with you will be the only thing worth while in my trip, and the full realization of what you actually mean to me strikes me full force today.”’ Other excerpts from the letters are: “You certainly keep your promises, dear, and keep them well. As for your other attainments, which are many, I could dilate upon them all day, and then what IL would say would be en- tirely Inadequate. Suffice to say that you are a dear, and that a certain young man from New York is mighty strong for you. “I have missed you more than you can imagine the past couple of days and every little while I find myself saying, “I wonder what Elizabeth is coing now, and whether you are think- ing of me? * * © Honey, need I tel) you that I miss you?

By Associated Press. : | KANSAS CITY, Mo., April 13.—Wil- Ham Rockhill Nelsen, founder,. owner ‘and editor -of the Kansas City Star, (died at his home here early today. He Was 74 years old and had been in ill- ’ health several months and confined to shis home since last December. Uremic poisoning caused his death, according ‘to physicians. Nelson’s last conference with his as- ‘gociates took place in his bedroom the ‘day before he became unconscious. It ‘pertained to the necessity of keeping up the fight for honest elections. “That is fundamenral for democratic government,’ he said. “I may not be * bere to see the fight won. But the Star il fight on with all its resources until the present rotten system is brok-n “down.” | i fong and Happy Life. » As. Nelson became weaker it was necessary to resort to artificial means *to prolong his life. He objected vig- | Orously. Last Thursday, a few hours before he became unconscivus, he pro- tested to his physicians against keeping chim alive artificially. Thursday .after- ‘BHoon he sank into a coma from which e did net rally. . During his illness Nelson continually attempted to reassure his family as to ‘the outcome, sometimes asking things jhe did not crave that Mrs. Nelson and ‘his daughter might believe him to be “improving. . A day or so before lapsing into un- ‘eonsciousness for the last time, Nelson, : zing the probability of a fatal term- ‘nation! of his illness, said to a friend: ' “Thre Lord has been far better to me ‘than I deserve. I have had a long life ‘and a happy life with great opportun- Sties for usefulness. My only regret is "that I have not accomplished more. But if this is the end, I am ready.” * Large Gifts to Charity. * Throughout the last illness of Nei- won the problem of the poor was of ‘“antense concern to him. He made large gifts to local charitable institutions and . absorbed in the work of a soup Kitchen which his daughter, Mrs. Kirk- wood, inaugurated and conducted. While no formal statement in regard to the future management of the Kan- gas City Star was made, it was an- mouncei that ‘“‘as far as is humanly possible the Star will, be conducted in @ccordance with the aims and ideas of _ (Mr. Nelson.” . Mr. Nelson took an active part in the management of the Star up until about a month ago, when his condition @hanged for the worse. Until then, ., Anembers of the Star staff gathered at | his: bedside several times weekly to discusa, with him questions of editorial Policy. At these conferences he would dictate editorials and outline ideas for artoons and feature stories. ‘Although his physicians constantly a af Kansas City Editor Who Dies After Several Months’ Iliness a | WILLIAM ROCKHILL NELSON.

During the last month, however, Mr. Nelson had been conscious only at in- tervals. At each period his mind was clear he constantly asked questions about his newspaper and the members of its staff. At the bedside at the time of death were Mrs. Nelson, Mrs. I. R. Kirk- wood, his only child, and Mr. Kirk- wood. Other relatives are Mrs. Nel- son’s sister, Miss Eva Nelson. and Mrs. H. W. Bond of Fort Wayne, Ind., and a niece, Miss Laura McCurdy of Bloom- ington, Il. Once Bridge Contractor. Although Nelson did not’ enter the newspaper business until he was nearly 40° years old, he brought to it such originality, ability and energy that he built: up one of the greatest newspapers of the country. Mr, Nelson was born in Fort Wayne, Ind., March 7, 1841. He came of two centuries of American ancestors. His maternal grandfather, William Rock- hill, settled in Indiana when that State was a wilderness in 1819, and was the first farmer in America to plant 1000 acres o€ corn. His father, Isaac DeGroff Nelson, was identified with the upbuilding of the State an took an active hand in its political life. William Rockhill Nelson was edv- eated at Notre Dame University.

JOSEPH April 10, 1907. Post-Dispatch Circulation Last Sunday: 363,504 Equaled Only aq FOUR SUNDAY Newspapers in the UNITED STATES LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE - Pullman Service and Porters. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. ' Iam disappointed in your editorial on “The Pull- _™man Company's Meanness.” You ask the necessity of the Chicago investiga- . : é & . .,tlon, assuming the public to be acquainted with _the company’s policy. I venture the assertion that ‘a thorough investigation of the “please help” ‘Wage system will redound to credit of the com- pany for the reason that there is no class of un- skilled labor to be found in any company’s em- ploy that will reflect greater credit upon them- selves and their employers than Pullman porters and this is especially true of the men long in the ‘company’s service, What the Pullman company has done with the negro in its employ in the mak- 9 oe of efficient and intelligent servants of the nt aii “nd .incidentally useful American citizens ‘ie tw ht a page in its history to be blurred by ‘theughtless comment. Their children are attend- ing in jarse numbers the public and high schools, "and many of the city’s most successful colored . business and professional men have been trained _{n public service in the ranks of the company’s You say “Gratuities!” Very well. The ‘company’s early employes were recipients of spon- , taneous. gratuities at the hand of an enthusiastic and appreciative public as an- expression of ap- of them and their employers of a sery‘ce new im fits field. and so far transcending anything pre- ceding in convenience and elegance of appoint- ments as to make. comparfson ridiculous; and in recognition of a service on the porter’s part as largely personal to it. What company’s unskilled | labor will show better living conditions, though ‘ gocially handicapped, than this company’s? “Pullman” to the American mind means excel- “Jence. The company is the country’s great- est public service corporation for the ‘reason that it is “First in Everything” for the safety and convenience of the _ trav- eling public’and at a price within the reach of the “whole people. As for the conductors, for you to assume that as a class they, “knock down” or as men of, at least orflinary intelligence, they would. have failed to protest unfair treatment is accord- ed. is to “stigmatize” a class of men that a thor- ough investigation will show are not in need of your sympathy; and will prove the thoughtlessness of your comment. READER. A Working Girl’s Appeal. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. . Why ‘1s it, will someone tell me, that positions are given to so many girls who do not need them, while girls who must earn their living are walk- ‘ing the streets day after day with no hopes? I am a good, hard-working girl, competent and experienced at any kind of office work, except . | gtenography, and have been looking for work five “months, but of no avail. Have tried advertising _and every other means to find work, but all posi- * tions seem to be filled by either girls who are _merely working girls for pin money er by girls 'who have others to support them. I think this is entirely wrong and something should be done te prevent this and give everyone a fair chance. DISCOURAGED. os Ce | The Sunday ‘‘Mirror’’ Page.

A DEADLY COMBINATION. “How many rumors as to his (Frederick’s) un- fitness reached the Republican City Committee before his election?” asks the St. Louis Times. All the facts regarding the Mechanics-American Bank transaction, which the Post-Dispatch had, collected, to say nothing of rumors as to Fred- erick’s* unfitness, reached the Republican City Committee. We saw to it that they reached the committee through Mayor -Kiel and Chairman Schmoll. We laid all our facts before them. “How many of these rumors were investigated by members of the controlling party, and what were the results of these investigations?” again asks the Times. : None of them was investigated. We asked the Mayor and we asked Chairman Schmoll to se@ Bank President Walker Hill and get from him the exact details which, for reasons of “banking ethics” (whatever they may be), Mr. Hill would not give us. Neither the Mayor nor Mr. Schmoll ‘went t6 Mr. Hill. They did nothing. Mr. Hill had the facts. He still has them. At last Circuit Attorney Harvey has Started a grand jury investigation which, had we had a Folk or a Whitman in office, would have been started days ago. And at last Mr. Hill’s facts may come out. If our neighbor, the Times, doubts that the Re- publican City Committee was given the facts, let the Times read the statements by Kiel, Schmoll and Harvey, printed in the Sunday Post-Dispatch. r Mayor Kiel said, in part: The first knowledge I received that A. H. Frederick Was suspected of being in any way involved in fraudulent deeds of trust trans- actions was given to me by a Post-Dispatch reporter whom I know personally. He told me of it at the Liederkranz Club.” : Circuit Attorney Harvey said, in part “The first information I had about the Fred- erick matter was on Friday of last week (the Friday before election) when it was brought to me by a reporter for the Post-Dispatch. He outlined to me what he knew of transac- ‘tions with the Mechanics-American National Bank in 1910 and asked me questions about some of the legal points involved. Another Post-Dispatch reporter came to me the first of this week with additional information. Chairman Schmoll said, in part: My first knowledge that A. H. Frederick was suspected of having. pledged fraudulent deeds of trust to secure loans from bariks was obtained from Post-Dispatch reporters. That was a few days before the election, after it was too late to substitute another candidate. All the information in the possession of the Post-Dispatch was given to the proper officials in the hope and expectation that they would go to the one man who had the facts, Walker Hill, and get from him full particulars for publica- tion before election.. Hill would. not talk. Kiel, Schmoll and Harvey did not act. As the result of thi’ sinister combination of practical politics, banking ethics and official lethargy St. Louis ia suffering the humiliation and disgrace of having elected a forger to high public office. alts TRAFFIC CODE SQUARE DEALS. We can’t attribute all ou® improvements to the new charter. The arrest of the 144 motor car drivershaled into court in 10 days for violation of the traffic laws is only affording the public a protection the city has always had it in its power to afford. A consistent, continuous, impartial, vigorous enforcement of these laws will insure a square deal not only for pedestrians but for drivers of automobiles and other vehicles who painstakingly Obey the regulations. = = * a a VON BERNSTORFF’S ‘‘THEREFORE,’’ Nevertheless the United States Government has not yet obtained the release of the ship nor has it after eight months of war suc- ceeded in safeguarding legitimate trade with Germany. It is, therefore, to be assumed that the United States Government has accepted England's violations of international law— Ambassador von Bernstorff'’s note. * Which is to say that the United States has accomplished just about as much by its protests against England’s illegal acts at-sea as it has accomplished by its protests against Germany’s illegal acts at sea. . But the assumption that because we have ex- hausted the resources of diplomacy with small avail, we acquiesce in England’s manufacture of international law to suit her own purposes ‘s un- tenable. That is not to be assumed any more than it is to be assumed that, because we have exhausted the resources of diplomacy with small avail against Germany's illegal acts, we accept her current output of new international law framed to suit her own purposes. Director of Public Welfare Tolkacs’s ansounce- ment that a bill will be introduced in the new ‘Board of Aldermen in line with the Post-Dis- patch’s suggestions that the city take up the fight against tuberculosis is encouraging. He will work for a fund to provide for more visiting to our city White Wigs, who may be seen any day dry-sweeping the streets.. Also, the or- dinance prohibiting spitting should be enforced. It isan uphill fight, but persistence can win it. 7 & rer WH HAVE THE BRECALL The Frederick case is a reminder that St. Louis now has a safeguard against unfit sthunicipal officers in the recall. . A petition of 20 per cent of the voters at the election is required to submit the recall. Sev- eral officers may be recalled on separate peti- tions at the same election. Three vacancies are necessary, under the char- ter, for a special election. It would not be diffi- cult to find sound reasons for creating two vacan- cies in addition to that in the presidency of the Board of Aldermen. Konetzky, who admitted a shortage in his ac- counts, which he tried to pay with a. worthless check, is fit material for the recall if he sticks in his office. Barney L. Schwartz, who as an attorney han- died a transaction in a fraudulent deed of trust which was denounced by the St. Louis Court of Appeals, would adorn another recall petition. To make the measure full Edward Scholl, — after the election, but its use would be salutary. It would serve notice on party leaders that they cannot longer put up unfits and misfits for of- fice. It would serve notice on the unfits that they cannot retain office. A revolt on the part of confiding voters would do good. ‘ + a i a rss WILLIAM ROCKHILL NELSON. It was characteristic of William Rockhill Nel- son, editor and owner of the Kansas City Star, who died Tuesday morning, thac his last counsel in. his last conference with his office associates touched upon public service which he wanted his newspaper to do. Urging the necessity of keeping up the fight for honest elections, he is quoted as saying: That is fundamental for democratic Govern- ment. I may not be here to see the fight won. But the Star will fight on with all its re- sources until the present rotten system is broken down. It was through work of this sort—persistent, in- telligent, courageous, aggressive work in the serv- ice of the people—that Mr. Nelson made the Star strong in popular confidence and support and a great power for good in its field. This was the foundation of its success. Entering journalism late in life, he had the wisdom early in his careef to understand that the fundamentals of good journalism were accuracy, sincerity, fearlessness and independence. He had the courage and force to put his principles into practice. As a result the Star has wielded great influence and has reaped rich rewards. But neith- er wealth nor the temptations of ease drew Col. Nelson from his enthusiastic interest in his news- paper and its work. He retained personal direc- tion as long as his strength permitted. Realizing that a newspaper can do its most ef- fective work in its own community, Col. Nelson di- rected the power of the Star to the developing of Kansas City. “It has grown with the growth of the city. It has expressed the community’s aspi- rations and has been in large measure the instru- ion in support of progress and improvement. Kan- sas City is adorned with monuments of the Star’s public service, under the inspiration of Col. Nel- son. 2 Conservative in his views, Col. Nelson resisted the temptation to ‘yield to modern methods of journalism, but while retaining thé old forms his newspaper exemplified their good qualities. It was always accurate and thorough, always inter- esting, always broad and progressive. The balance was heavily on the credit side. The esteem and affection of his associates testi- fy to the personal qualities of the man, but his enduring memorials are a great newspaper and the service it has performed. = = * rw THE 116 AT TERRE HAUTE. The maximum penalty imposed on the Terra Haute election fixers was that given Mayor D. M. Roberts, six years in the penitentiary and $2000 fine. ‘The Mayor was described as the “arch conspirator” by Judge Anderson. , The Circuit Judge and the Sheriff were sen- tenced to serve five years and pay a fine of $1000 each. The City Judge and several heads of municipal departments were given three years and $500 fine. Would Judges and Sheriff ever, have been punished but for Federal help? The minimum sentence was six months in the county jail and $10 fine. Thus, these trials, which directed a national attention to a condition in Terre Haute differ- ing only in degree from that in not a few other and larger cities, are having a very satisfactory ending. The merit of the appeals taken depends on the technical wording of the law, but from the broader standpoint of public policy these prosecu- tions are enthusiastically to be approved. The general Government now undertakes to enforce standards of personal conduct by prosecutions under the Mann act for offenses against indi- viduals. How much. less violence to tradition is done by Federal punishment for election crimes, which are an offense against the entire body politic, against democracy itself. The affirmation of these richly deserved sen- tences would: strike terror to crooked bosses and election workers everywhere. = = ~~ NEW YORKE’S FAST TIME—AND OUBS. Yesterday our Professor of Useful Information answered, in the last, but not least, column on this page, the query of one Bauer respecting the difference between New York's time and ours. The answer read: / BAUER.—New York time is than St. Louts time. Our Professor could have added that New York has not only a faster time, but a totally different kind of time from ours.

ANTWINE read all about the new battle ship England is going to build, and felt moved to say something. , ‘fit is cheerful to think that battleships... are to grow bigger and those we have now are to be out of date in a very few years,’’ the philosopher said. ‘‘The British have begun building them 800 feet long and carrying six or eight 15-inch guns, and I guess the rest of us will have to do the same thing. If we should have to fight ships like that with the kind of dreadnoughts we are making now, we would be sunk before we could get within range. ‘‘Nothing that the war has proven is clearer than that all modern sea fights are won by advantage on one side or the other. When the Germans had the advantage off Ohile, they sank the British, When the British had the advantage off the Falkland Islands, they sank the Germans. It is all a matter of mathematics. If the enemy has the edge, you go to the bottom. You may be brave as you will, but that won’t make your guns shoot any farther or in- crease the speed of your ship. ‘We will all have to build ships like that, and the sooner we get at it the better.

I sat among a throng and saw them not; I thought (if thought it was) upon the folly By vanity and avarice begot. A sour cynic sickness of the soul, A discontent more devilish than divine, A sense of wrong in time’s too heavy toll _Levied upon this tenenient of mine,— In short, a sullen mood wherein the worst The soul of man inherits or acquires Was on me—when a sudden rippling burst Of laughter thrilled with amorous desires; Bright eyes that read the madness in my own And mocked me’with a challenge old as time. What was it in the eyes or in the tone That set my pulses dancing into rhyme? Maid, wife or widow—ask me not—I only Was cognizant of the challenge in her eyes; I know that I was sad and mad and lonely, And I had proved life’s promises are lies.

Mr. Lind is badly stunned, but we shall soon have him back in his clear senses.”’ “How did it happen—where?” Mra Prescott managed to inquire, as they placed the injured man in bed. “It was up at the big house on the hill,” was explained by one of the four men who had carried Arthur into the house. ‘ . “Ah, I thought so!’ bobbed the trouble maker, with a mysterious smile on her face. ““Yes,"’ broke in the doctor, “and Mrs. Warrington was most kind. She de- plored the accident, the breaking of a ladder. She almost insisted on caring for the invalid herself.’’ “Naturally,”’ purred Mrs. Prescott. “You see,”’ added one of the men, “Mr. Lind had a chance to make a good bit of extra money working with us nights. It’s out of his line, and he made a misstep. Mrs. Warrington had never seen him until he wag hurt. She’s got a grand, good heart, for eahe felt so sorry for his poor wife here” Mrs. Prescott opened her eyes wide. Was her carefully reared fabric of meddlesome guesswork about to be rudely shattered? Althea had been bustling about mak- ing her husband comfortable. He was breathing more easily now and his eyes had opened several times. In mov- ing his coat something fell from one of his pockets. Mrs. Prescott bounded ferward lke a hawk. : “The pink piece of paper!” she whis- pered eagerly. “Oh, new we will know!’’ Yes, they soon knew. The little serap bore a notation of payments Arthur was making on a diamond ring for Al- thea's birthday. ; “Oh, the poor dear!” sobbed the over- come Althea. “He risked his life to buy me a present! Go home!” she add- ed sternly to Mrs. Presdott. And the old meddler with a sickly smile, passed out over the threshold of a home forever happy afterwards. Copyright by W. G. Chapman.

JIMMY FOX, Johnson to Box Kabakoff Again in C. A. C. Event Principals in Recent Sensational Amateur Encounter to Battle Again, The Columbian Athletic Club has received some good. entries for its amateur boxing shows on next Friday night and the tournament bids fair to be-a very successful one. On March 18 this club gave a tournament that was one of the best seen in this city for a long time. Many of the boys who competed in it have entered fot? next Friday night. A match that is sure to be of spe- cial interest is in the 108-pound class between Charles Johnson of the South Broadway A. C. and Harry Kabakoff of the Columbian A. CG hese boys boxed a sensational bout in the for- mer tournament, with Kabakoff being the winner by a close margin. Willig Colona, considered by many to be the best 115-pound amateur boxer in the city, is paired off: with Robert Owens. The latter is said to be a very clever boxer and is expect- ed to give Colona a tight argument. Wickert and Crawshaw Sought. It is probable that the club will suc- ced in matching Arthur Wickert and George Crawshaw, heavyweights, in a Special match. These two were to have boxed each other at the tourna- ment given by the South Broadway A. C. on last Friday night, but the bout had to be postponed on account of an injury to Wickert’s nose, sus- tained while in training.

The eighth team, which { will not even name, has a two-year lease on last place. This club has been rep- resented in the major league world for 36 years and has never yet had a chance to tug at the pennant halyards.” First Symptoms of Insanity. UT don’t you give any other club a look-in for the flag but Boston?”’ Dope was asked. “With a Lick telescope it is highly probable that the White Sox, Washing- ton, Philadelphia, Browns, et al., may get a glimpse of the flag. However, there IS a bare chance that the world’s series of 1915 may not be played entirely in Boston.”’ “rom which, we infer, you mean that the Boston Nationals are goimg to win the flag in the other race?’ “T don’t mean anything that has the least to do with George Stallings’ ma- chine.

Say, an Amazon ballet is nothing com- parea to the Red Sox for impress- ing figures. “On the other hand, we can’t afford to take figures too seriously. They lie: they all do, sometimes. Even George Washington did. George put in several hours each night lieing. That’s why I say figures sometimes lie—at least they don’t always stand up.” Cheerful for Rickey. «RB don’t you give the Browns some show in this A.

The Y teams last Saturday won the city title and Spurrier is con- fident his outfit could make a good showing against the Pittsburg aggrega- tion. Gaupel, scoring a total of 781 points, for an average of %, won the allround championship of the Y. M. C. A. Witte, with 618% points and a 69 average, was second; with Sparks, 492 points, average 65, third. Sheller was a close fourth, with Knickerbocker (fifth. Gaupel’s point total is the best ever made. The next best mark was made in 1913 by A. Bauer with 6872-4. In 1912 Herman Laubis, the star long distance swim- mer of the M. A. A., was first with 515 points. The paddlers competed in nine events, the 50, 100 and 220. yard dashes, 100-yard breast stroke, 60-yard back stroke, 440- yard swim, 88-yard swim, long plunge and under-weter swimming.

St. Louis, Chicago and New York finished last season in a regu- lar true-lover knot for closeness. Of the three teams, the White Sox is the only one that has gained notable strength. Collins should, in all rea- son, be the element that would make the White Sox stronger than either of their rivals. “But the rest of the club, while spok- en of very kindly by the critics, is Just marking time from last season. ‘The one positive assertion I feel willing to make about Comiskey’s team is that Cleveland will not beat it out.” He’s Lost Control, Men! HERE do the Yankees and Bill Donovan get off?’’ “They get off at the Grand Central station and the first division—it looks like. Some dope fiend dug up the in- formation that the Yanks last year won more games after the Fourth of July than all but three other clubs in the major league world—the Braves, the Cards and the Athletics. If the club could do that while handicapped by Frank Chance and his daily grouch, plus a battle royal between the directors and Ban Johnson, it must be SOME team. ‘The Athletics’ machine has lost about three of its nine cylinders and has pulled up by the roadside to let the pennant procession pass by, this year. “Therefore, on the “dope” shown by the last two months or so of the 1914 season, the Yankees ought to win this year’s pennant!” Not a Keeper Near! HE committee began to edge toward the door. One member whispered to the others that he thought it would be safer for all concerned if they'd ‘sic’ a squirrel on the Old Man and put him out of his misery. And there wasn’t a Keeper on the horizon. To distract the veteran’s attention and keep him from becoming violent one of the visitors asked him what he thought of this pennant talk from Washington. ‘Somebody left the window open and in. It’s just some of Clark Griff’s hot-aerograms. There is no truth in the report that Walter John- son is going to pitch 154 games, this year. If he could, the Washington club might win 100 victories—and it’ll take that many this year to cop, from Bos- ton.” By this time the committee was al- most at the front door, thanks to careful footwork, and it was observed Old Man Dope was becoming more and more reckless. It was the general feeling that George Stallings’. machine had shattered one of the brightest minds known to baseball clairvoyance. It was necessary to cover the retreat of the party effectively, so while the company was slipping out rapidly the chairman of the commissee held the Old Boy’s attention by asking where he figured the Tigers would run. “The Jennings’ machine will run just as fast as Ty Cobb and Sam Crawford can push it. The motor seems to have broken down”’—but by this time the committee to a man had evaporated to the sidewalk and beat it.

HIS story is vouched for—just as all others are. It concerns a small maid who had a way of saying startling things. Not long ago the family expected a visit from a relative—a distant cousin from the roomy West. “‘Now,’’ said the mother, ‘“‘don’t you dare say a word if you see Cousin Jim eating with his knife.’’ All through the dinner the little maid gave the visitor her closest attention. She noticed that his manners were fault- iess; that he ate as politely and correct- ly as if Kings and Queens had been his table mates. And then she turned to her mother. ‘‘Well, ma,’ she gravely said, “I guess somebody stung you, all right; he didn’t use his knife once.”’ Accent on the “‘Why.” HE greeting ‘How are you?’ doesn’t seem to me to represent any sincere and sensible inquiry,’’ re- marked the man who thinks hard about trifles. “That is true,’’ replied Miss Cayenne. ‘“‘When I meet several people I know 1 am always. tempted to say ‘why’ in- stead of ‘how’ ’’—Washington Star.
