CAMPBELL T ERECT MONUMEN 0 FIRST HUSBAND Her Plans Told Of in Deposition of Her Former Brother- in-Law. VISITED HER RECENTLY Topeka Man Says He Called Upon Lawyer for Will De- fendants at Same Time. Mre. Florence A. Campbell, chief de- fendant in the James Campbell will contest, lately announced her purpose to place a monument over the grave of her first husband, Furrier C. Tay- lor, in Mechanicsburg, O., according to “a statement made by his brother, John P. Taylor of Topeka, Kan., in his depo- ‘sition, filed in Judge Kinsey's court today. Taylor said in the deposition, which was taken in Topeka a few days ago, that he and Mrs. Campbell had had a ‘“‘mieunderstanding’’ about the matter of a monument at Furrier Taylor's grave, and that he called, a month be- fore, at her Westmoreland place resi- dence, with a view to adjusting this misunderstanding. At the time of that visit, he testi- fied Mrs. Campbell spoke of the .Dlacing of the monument as ‘“some- Jthing she had always expected to do, and expects still to carry out.” He said he took luncheon with Mrs. Campbell and her daughter, Lois Ann Campbell Burkham, at that time, but that little was said about the suit. They talked chiefly about music, he .gaid, as he and Mrs. Burkham both have musical tastes. He said that, on this visit to St. Louis, he called on Attorney Morton Jourdan, who represents Mrs. Campbell, and that while Mrs. Campbell did not ask him ‘to visit Jourdan, she did tell him .where the lawyer's office was. Taylor said that, to the best of his recollection, his brother’s death at - Mechanicsburg occurred in 1881. He said he next saw his brother's widow -in St. Louis, before her marriage to Campbell, and again after her mar- Triage, and that he called to see his Willard Taylor. He said that, on a visit which he thought was -in 1888 or 1890, he found Willard a boy of 7 or 8 years, in knee pants. MRS. BLAIR SAYS CAMPBELL OFTEN GAVE HER MONEY Testifies He Told Her Not to Tell What She Had Heard ‘About Stepdaughter’s Child. _.dtearsay testimony regarding the par- entage of Lois Ann Campbell Burk- ham, now the chief issue in the Camp- aren will contest, was given yesterday Pafternoon by Mrs, Edith Blair of 3223 Morgan street, in the office of Attorney W. G. Schofield in Wellston, outside the jurisdiction of the St. Louis Circuit Court. This made it possible to intro- duce, without objection, testimony which might not have been admitted if a Commissioner, appointed by the Court, had been .in charge of the hear- ing. ; Mrs. Blair is the witness whom, a few weeks ago, deputy Sheriffs found it impossible to serve with a subpena. Pa. then lived at 3229 Morgan street. gehe had furnished an affidavit to L. F. attorney for the will contes- to’ be sufficient. She also pleaded ill- ness ag a reason for her unwillingness to gO downtown to give her deposition. This was one of the causes of the de- lay in the trial of the estate case. which is now docketed for next Monday in Tudge Kinsey's court. Tella of Her Stepdaughter. Mrs. Blair said her stepdaughter, Mrs. Ann Elizabeth Hicks, had told her that she was living at the Campbell home, Grand and Washington avenues, in the latter part of 1892 and the early part of 1893, and that she went in March, 1893, to New York, where in the Grand Union Hotel, a child was born to her. She said her stepdaughter told her that James Campbell arranged, be- foré the birth of this child, to take it into his home and raise it as his own, an@ that this agreement had been car- ried out. Mrs. Campbell, in her deposition, made public two days ago, stated that Lois Ann Campbell was her own child, '.whern in the Grand Union Hotel, March 17, 1898. _ Mrs. Blair admitted that she hae eye seen Mrs. Campbell or Lois bell. She said she saw her step- _¢aughter in the fall of 1898, and that the stepdaughter then told her of the THURSDAY EVENING, APRIL led mavad init | Eastern Battle Line, Showing Carpathian Mountains Where Violent Fighting for Hungarian Passes Rages 1 AUSTRO-GE = RUSSIANS. Sea the battle line on the eastern front in Eurspe’s great war extends southward in almost a straight line to the Car- pathian Mountains. The only fighting of any consequence north of the Carpathians is around Suwalki, where the northern Russian army is trying to break through for another in- vasion of Germany in the vicin- ity of Koenigsburg. The German line is holding everywhere and indications are that the offen- sive against Warsaw is about to begin with redoubled energy. It is in the Carpathians that the most violent struggle is rag- ing. The Russians are using every resource to break through the Carpathians for the invasion of Hungary but, according to today’s dispatches they have been checked temporarily by failure to capture the Beskiden and Uzsoker passes. The Aus- trian lines stretches on the south- ern slope of the Carpathians across the Bukowina which still is held by them. The possession of Uzsoker pass is absolutely es- sential to further Russian ad- vances.

After that, she said, he met her several times, and each time gave her money, telling her not to te anyone what she had heard about Wer stepdaughter'’s child. She said. she last saw Campbell in January or February, 1914, a few months before his death, and that he called at her home and gave her money. She refused to estimate the total amount she had received from him, saying it was nobody’s business. Another witness was examined in tie Wellston hearing, Samuel Boyd, who said he was employed at the Campbell home. He said that in 1894, when he was working there, Willard Taylor, Mis Campbell's son by her first marriage, was a grown man, apparently 20 vears old. Mrs. Campbell said in her deposi- tion that he was born in 1881, which would make him 13 years old in 1894. ASKS KANSAS PAPERS T0 CLOSE DURING W. R. NELSON'S FUNERAL Gov. Capper Will Suspend His Estab- lishments and Requests Other Pub- lishers to Do the Same. TOPEKA, Kan., April 15.—Gov. Ar- thur Capper has asked that every news- paper plant in Kansas be closed during the hour of the funeral of W. R. Nel- son, Friday afternoon. The Governor's own big printing establishment here and the branch in Kansas City and also at Wichita were directed to close, and the Governor sent word of his action and his request to each editor in the State. “For a quarter of a century Col. Nel- son and I were warm personal friends,”’ said the Governor, “‘“‘and it is because of my profound respect for him that I have taken this action. “Kansas editors generally have at one time or another been favored by Col, Nelson, and I believe they will feel like showing respect to their dead friend. I wish that every newspaper plant in the entire State might be clased during the hour of the funeral.’’ KANSAS CITY, Mo., April 15.—Funer- al services for William R. Nelson, edi- tor and owner of the Kansas City Star, who died here Tuesday, will be open to the public at his home, Friday aft- ernoon, it was announced today. Private services will be held at the cemetery. Pythians of Two States to Meet. BLOOMINGTON, Ill, April 15.—The Knights of Pythias of Illinois and In- diana have agreed upon holding the en- campment of the uniform rank of the two states this year, Aug. 15, at French British Casualties in Eight Months of War Are 139,347 HE total of British casualties in the war from tne begin- ning of hostilities up to April announcement made in the House of Commons this afternoon by Harold J.

In the American Civil War, of the 12 battles which earned that conflict, the name of being one of the bloodiest tn history, only one, Gettysburg, had as much as a 10,000 greater Union loss. Neuve Chapelle cost the British more men than the Union lost at either Antietam, Cold Harbor, Fredericksburg or Petersburg. The Union casualties at Shiloh and Stone River were approximately the same, and those at Bull Run and Chickamaugua were. only slightly greater. Union losses at Spotsylvania were 18,396; at the Wilderness, 17,- 666; at Chancellorsville, 17,287. The difference between any of these and Neuve Chapelle would not amount to a modern European bri- gade of cavalry.

The fact that the town of Newcastle was completely missed by the raider undoubtedly was due to the fact that all lights were put cut when the Zep- pelin was reported. 28 guns and some 12,000 Kurds and Arabs, attacked the British positions at Kurna Ahwaz and Shaiba, in Mesopotamia, March 12, They were driven off, however, leaving 200 pris- oners and two guns in the hands of the British. The British casualties, according to the report, were 92 men wounded. Advance 1500 Alsace. PARIS, April 15.—Today’s statement from the War Office says that in Alsace, to the north of La Lauche, the French made progress yesterday amounting to 1500 yards in the direction of Schnepfen- Riethkopf. In the Ailly wood a section of ground 400 yards long and 10 yards deep was won by the French. French Yards im German Chancellor Said to Have Opposed Submarine Warfare. LONDON, April 15.—The Rotterdam correspondent of the Daily Telegraph through German diplomatic sources that the German Imperial Chancellor, Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg, “was and still is opposed to submarine warfare on merchant shipping.” “The Chancellor's view,’ says the dispatch published by the Telegraph, ‘was that the trivial successes gained would not be commensurate with the detrimental effect in neutral coun- tries. Admiral von Tirpitz urged that something must be done to show the German people that Germany still possessed a sea power. “After a prolonged debate the Em- peror supported Admiral von Tirpitz, but the Chancellor’s view still has strong support. The real disappoint- ment of the German people with the submarine campaign is due to the fact that no troop snips have been sunk.”’ Auto Breaks Man’s Ankle. Jacob Bohlin, 59 years old, of 290 Franklin avenue, was knocked down by an automobile owned and driven by Louis Miller of 3639 Olive street, at Fif- teenth and Locust streets, last night. He was accompanied by his wife, who escaped injury. Bohlin was taken to the city hospital with a fractured an- kle. Miller was arrested on a charge of carelessness. ——— SOCIETY HAIR STYLES EASY 10 COPY Any of the expensive coiffures which are worn by ladies of unlim- ited means may easily be made by anyone who is blessed ‘with a heavy head of hair.

CHICAGO MAYOR T APPOINT MOTHERS 0 GITY OFFICES William Hale Thompson, Here on River Trip, Distinguishes Between Them and ‘Women.’ William Hale Thompson, Mayor-elect of Chicago, today told a Post-Dispatch reporter that nrany of his appointees to city offices will be women. “And,” he added. impressively, ‘when I say women I 1nean mothers. There is a big differ- ence between being just a woman and a mother. Single women and women without children are too apt to have radical ideas. Mothers have coninon scnse.”’ Thompson arrived in St. Louis with 4 party of personal friend, newly-elected officials and newspaper men on the chartered steamboat Kabekona ast night. They are on an “‘after-election cruise’ to Memphis. The boat is at the foot of Pine street. Yt will depart to- night. : Tella How Wife Helped. : The part which women took in the Chicago election ig a ravorite topic with Thompson. He told of his wife’s sud- den political activity, after he had cas- ually remarked to her that he expected her to see that he carried his own precinct. “I had not lived tong in the although I had represented another ward as Alderman,” he said. “All my wife needed was the word. In a character- istically feminine way, she started the campaign by giving a luncheon at her home. About 15 women were there. Throughout the campaign she gave one of these luncheons every week and the number of women attending them stead- ily increased. After dbout the third luncheon my wife said to me: ‘We are not going to restrict our efforts to just this one little precinct. We are going to carry the ward for you.’ “I said: ‘Good-by, precinct,’ but after a few more luncheons my wife told me the ward Was ag good as carried and she and her friends were ready to form a club of women which would draw its members from all parts of the city. “Women are fairly started in politics, and after observing the result of my suggestion that my wife help me carry my precinct, | am convinced that they must be taken into account in all future elections in Chicago. There are several women in the Chicago School Board now, amd I shall increase the number. And my appointees will be mothers, ev- ery time.”’ Reorganize Police Force. Mayor-elect Thompson says he will re- organize the Chicago police force. E. C, Racey, a Chicago business man, who is with Thompson on the after-election river cruise, is being addressed by pas- sengers and crew as “Chief.” It is thought to be certain that he will be the new head of the Chicago Police De- partment. Thompson says he will pursue a lib- eral policy with factories seeking a lo- cation in Chicago, and will endeavor to revive civic spirit, which he says has shown a tendency to fall off in the last 10 years. The Mayor-elect is a man of indepen- dent means. He is a noted yachtsman and indoor baseball player. FOREST RANGE STOCK INCREASES Cattle and Horses Number 1,983,775, Forestry Bureau Reports, WASHINGTON, April 15.—A big in- crease in the production of meat on the Federal forest ranges this year Is pre- dicted by the Bureau of Forestry today. The figures show that the forests will ward. , furnish forage for 1,983,775 cattle and horses, 8,747,025 sheep and goats and 64,- 040 swine. This is an increase over last year of 92,656 in the number of cattle and horses, but a decrease of 120,881 in sheep and goats. It is estimated that the Federal Treas- ury will be enriched to the extent of about $1,200,000, or an increase,of $200,000 over last year by receipts from grazing permits. Blow-outs; T) [BANKER EXPLAINS KEEPING OF FREDERICK DEAL SECRET ST.LOUIS POST-L TR a ee ——_—— L. A. Battaille, Former Cashier of Mechanics- American, in Reply to Post-Dispatch Inquiry, Says It Was Not Usual to Report Such Frauds. uw. A. Battaille of Warrenton, Va, who was cashier of the Mechanics-American National Bank in June, 1910. when that bank discovered that A. H. Frederick had deposited fraudulent securities with it and forced him to make it good, wired to the Post-Dispatch today a statement about the transaction. Hiis message was in response to a tele- gram sent to him by the Post-Dispatch, in which it was pointed out that Fred- erick had, since 1910, duped a lot of inno- cent purchasers, who had no means of knowing how he had tried to swindle the bank, because the bank kept it secret. The Post-Disptch telegram was as fol- lows: April 14, 1915. lL. A. Battaille, Warrenton, Va. August H. Frederick, who had an account with the Mechanics-Ameri- can National Bank when you were cashier tnere in June, 1910, was indicted for forg- ery in the first degree yesterday. This indictment cnarges that he forged a deed of trust and sold it to a Mrs. Anna Weinheimer. Sev- eral other forged deeds of trust have been traced to him and he will be indicted on numerous other charges. The investigation by the grand jury brought out these facts in connec- tion with the Mechanics-American Bank: That he borrowed $6871 from the bank in 1910 on three deeds of trust, one deed being for $3500 cov- ering vacant property; that he re- leased title to portions of this va- cant property, forging notes which he presented to the Recorder of Deeds to accomplish this; that this releasing of part of the property im- pairing as it did tne bank’s collat- eral, the bank obnged Frederick to take up the loan and withdraw his account from the bank; that in this transaction, of course, it became Known to you that Frederick had committed a felony. Frederick has forged deeds of trust and notes in at least half a dozen instances since the Mechanics-Amer- ican Bank discovered the forgery outlined above. He has swindled peo- ple out of upwards of $40,000 by means of these forgeries. Of course, his career of crime would have been checked had the Mechanics-American Bank prosecuted and exposed him in June, 1910. All of these facts are being made public today. Walker Hill, president of the Me- chanics-American Bank, has. said that the Frederick matter was han- dled for the bank by you; that he personally came into possession of the facts only two weeks ago. The Post-Dispatch asks why did you not cause Frederick to be prose- cuted in June, 19107 We will be glad to have you telegraph a state- ment of any length at our expense. THE POST-DISPATCH. Reply of Battaile. Battaille’s only reply to the important question why he dia not cause Fred- erick to be prosecuted was that it is not customary for a bank to report such transactions to outsiders or to other banks. Its chief concern, Battaille seems to infer, is to clean out a crooked cus- tomer’s transaction and protect itself. His reply in full follows: Editor the Post-Dispatch, St. Louis, Mo.: I have received your telegram in regard to the Frederick matter. My recollection is that it was in your paper that the statement appeared that Mr. Switzler, who was em- ployed by the Mechanics-American Bank, discovered the irregularities in that loan and reported same to Mr. Hill, president of the bank, which was true in fact, except he did not report it to Mr. Hill, but to me. There was no occasion for his re- porting it to Mr. Hill, because it was I who sent Mr. Switzler to examine the property and records, having be- come suspicious of Mr. Frederick's loan. F do not remember what first made me suspicious of him. You mentioned in your article, I think, that Mr. Switzler became suspicious because of something he saw in the Daily Record. There was no occasion for my re- porting it to Mr. Hill because I passed on more loans probably than Mr. Hill and had more knowledge of the bank’s collateral than he did. In regard to reporting tnese trans- actions in the bank, it is not custom- ary for a bank to report such mat- ters to outsiders or to other banks. Banks finding their loans undesir- able proceed to clean themselves up with such customers in order to pro- tect themselves. Demanded of Mr. Frederick a pay- ment of the loans and the closing of his account. Mr. Switzler was direct- ed by me, when he was a clerk, and that was a part of his duty, to make this examination. I judge from your account that Mr. Switzler is still In St. Louis, and, as far as I know, is still with the bank. He can give you, and also the records of the bank will show, all about the transaction. Of course, all loans are passed on daily as they are made by the Board of Di- rectors. L. A. BATTAILLE. Rattaile withdrew from the cashier- ship of the Mechanics-American Nation- al Bank in the latter part of 1910. He went from here to Warrenton, where he again engaged in business. —— ee Many Civil Suits Likely to Follow Frederick Expose Continued From Page One. hich the bank held of Frederick’s guilt in pledging fraudulent deeds of trust as collateral security. : Officials sf the bank, in private con- versation, said that Schmoll was called into the bank on Monday before the election and told about’ Ilrederick’s crookedness., One of the results of Schmoll’s testi- mony was the issuing of a subpena .by Circuit Atterney Harvey for Herman Haeussler, a lawyer. Schmoll said thai he had been informed that Hauessler, representing a client, had forced Fred- ‘rick to make good on a deed of trust, and that he requested Henry Kortjohr. tc investigate and report the facts to him. Kortjohn reported, according to Schmoll, that there was no truth In the report. Kortjohn is Frederick's at- torney. Gave Tip to Bank, Phil McDermott, Democratic City Com- mitteeman from the Twenty-eighth Ward, was also a grand jury witness. McDermott, several days before the elec- tion, told C, E. Hayden, vice-president of the Night and Day Bank, that Fred- erick had trouble with the Mechanics- American Bank in 1910. Hayden, act- ‘ng on McDermott’s tip, caused an in- vestigation to be made of the collateral which Frederick had pledged to secure t loan of $3550 from the Night and Day Bank. The investigation proved that three deeds of trust, of par value of $5200, had been released by Frederick. Circuit Attorney Harvey, during the investigation of the deeds of trust held by- Mrs. Anna Weinheimer, discovered that a $4500 deed of trust which she has cn property on Lafayette avenue, and which was at first believed to be spuri- | resulted in the election of Francis Curlee, Democrat. by M.

Frederick, in a public state- ment, has announced that he will re- sign as President of the Board of Al- dermen, and if thought best, he will first qualify. Before he can qualify he must take the following oath: “T A. H.

No effort is being made to float the Asama. Japanese officers, says the cor- respondent, declared they were awaiting the arrival of a crane ship. The correspondent asserts Turtle Bay was mined by the Japanese, that ant- munition was landed, a camp estab- lished and preparations made to land guns from the Asama. The mines were laid, the correspondent says he was told as a precaution against a German at- tack, The warships guarding the Asama were the Chitose, Idzumo and Tokioba. When the correspondent sought to get close to these vessels and to visit the Asama he says he was arrested and told by Lieut. Tomasada of the Idzumo that it was dangerous to cruise about the bay and that visiting was discour- aged. WASHINGTON, April 16.—An official statement authorized by the Japanese Embassy today characterized as ‘‘pre- posterous” reports that a naval base had been established at Turtle Bay, Lower California, and declared “there never has been any intention on the part of the Japanese Government to locate a raval base or occupy any territory on the west coast of Mexico.” Operations of Japanese warships in Turtle Bay, Embassy officials said, were sulely for the purpose of salvaging the stranded cruiser Asama. It Was stated that while detailed reports from the scene had not been received, as the Con- sul-General at San Francisco was hand- ling the situation, landing on the shoro of the bay probably had been found nec- essary in connection with the salvage work, Of reports that a naval base had been established, the Embassy statement said: “It is more than absurd; it is pre- rosterous. There never has been any intention on the part of the Japanese Government to locate a naval base. or to occupy any territory on the west coast of Mexico. A few Japanese fish- ermen, about # score in number, per- haps, frequent the waters of this bay, but they have no connection whatever with the Japanese naval establish- ment.” The Coroner's office was notified this morning that Mrs. Lulu E. Rob- ertson, 56 years old, a widow of Car- ruthersville, Mo., jumped from 4 fourth floor window at St. John’s Hospital at 7 o’clock last night and was instantly killed. Police who made an investigation today learned that Mrs. Robertson had been a pa- tient at the hospital for two weeks Ss ~ \) —, ong —— Salvage ma, Consul Says. SAN PRANCISCO, April 165. Yusataro Numano, Japanese Consul-General at San Francisco, said today that the pres- ence of Japanese vessels in Turtle Bay, on the Lower California coast, was for the salvage of the stranded Asama. “I don’t know of any warships having been there,”’ he said. ‘I know that col- liers have been there continuing efforts to float the Asama. Japanese warships cruising from the coast of Lower Cali- fornia to Honolulu may have gone in to inspect the Asama. I am confident, how- ever, that no large number of men or vessels has been there at any one time.” — Bay for OaKes Molasses Taffy, 17¢ ms Thursday and Friday Special, 512 Lecust.

LOS ANGELES, Cal., April 15.—Three Japanese warships, under command of Admiral Nakayama, with six colliers and supply ships, manned by about 4000 men, were recently in Turtle Bay, Lower California, standing by the stranded Jap- anese cruiser Asama, according to Al-| cards must be produced. “The only difference in that respect is,’ explained Herr Jordan, “that be- eause of the war we have all learned to become a little more saving than we were before, which is a good thing. after all. Nothing is wasted now, be- cause what is left over from a meal now goes to the cattle. Please tell your people in America that nobody name was not obtained called at the Coroner’s offite and said that he would return later and would claim the body. ‘? ow 45 1 ERATOR OF , “now and every stranger, ' ts not short of war ' outside sources. they recognized the salute of the secret ‘their wives have cooked may do so, and which made the most modern forti- fications, heretofore regarded as inde- structible, the laughing stock of modern war history, are being built in plenty. It is known that these very same expert gzunmakers, who surprised civilizatior when the “Schoene Berthas’’ first were planted against the encmy’s strongholds, mave succeeded in creating new engines of war powerfu!, more death-dealiig than any ever dreamed of, by the must enthusiastic artillerists. It was only after the most complete and satisfactory exhibit of credentials that the Post-Dispatch’s correspondent Was permitted to visit a part of the great Krupp plant and see it in oper- ation. Essen is a closely guarded place unless he is _vouched for by incontestable documents ‘and evidences of authority, will quickly find himself in trouble with the vigilant police. I made my way through the of- ' ficial’ cordon ‘on the plea that the Ger- man Government would find it a good stroke of policy to show an Arhetican newspaper representative that Germany materials and re- sources.

Workmen had left their big furnaces and the gun shops and many were waiting for their meals to arrive. The Krupps have provided a number of dining halls where the employes may buy their meals at very moderate prices, Those who caré to have the dinners and in order that no outsider might be able to get inside of the Krupp works in the guise of a meal car- rier, the home-cooked repasts are brought to the works by a number of wagons constructed especially for that purpose. The wagons are painted white and closed. .There is an electria heating plant inside of each meal- carrying vehicle. Kesen proper is. divided by the Krupps into a number of districts. Into each one of these a meal wagon proceeds every morning and takes up. its station about 11:30 o'clock. The, families of the men employed at the Krupp works proceed to the parti lar station inside of the re- Spective district and deliver to an attendant the meals intended for a certain man. ga dish is labeled and numbered. he meal placed in ‘the electrically heat- @ wagon and when all the meals have thus been deposited, the wagon is hur- edly driven to the works.

Every one of the big steel furnaces was in action and the monster gun works, where the heavy field artillery pieces were being turned out, proved scenes Of greatest activity. A number 4f the monster 42-centimeter sieze guns were being towed on specially construct- ed and most powerful flat cars. The shops, which in time of peace were used for the manufacture of steel rails and other non-wartike articles, had ell been transformed into places where shrapnel was being turned out by the thousand. All in all, there was every indication of greatest activity. The next official connected with the Krupps to whom the Post-Dispatch representative was introduced was Her Ernest Jordan, who spoke English quite fiuently, but who did not care to have it known that his name might readily be taken for an English one. Just now nobody in Germany cares to be related, in the very smallest degree, to anythine English. The hatred against the Brit. ish was even very pronounced here in Essen. Experts Called Back From Colors. “Before the commencement of the war,’ he explained, “we had about 36,00 men working here in Essen at the Krupp works. Then.a number of our employes joined the colors. Our expert gunmakers have all been ordered back to our plant from the front. We feel they can serve their country much better by working right here, than by facing the enemy et the front. So, with those returned to us and the additional men we have taken on, the Krupps have today 46,00 men working in day and night shifts. ‘This means that since the war we have employed more than 10,000 addi- tional forces, since you must recall there are still a good number at the tront who formerly worked for us. But experts who learned their business in our works are all here today. Our en- tire plant is turning out war material, Where formerly we manufactured band iron and rails, today we are making shrapnel and shells. “We are principally engaged in the manufacture of guns of all sizes, in- cluding siege guns, cannon, munitions of war, such as shrapnel, and, in fact, everything in that line. Our sheps ex- change watches every week, so that the force that works in the daytime this week will be busy in the night the week after this. We ‘find this works more satisfactorily than any other arrangement which might tried. As for Sundays, we try to give éverybody a day off, but then, you know, these big furnaces which you see about here must be looked after, even on a holiday.’’ Of course conversation drifted to the wonders of modern gunnery, the “Schoen Berthas,’"’ the monster siege guns which were first heard of in Bel- gium, and which last hammered against the gates and fortifications of Ant- werp. “Of course we are building these an others,”’ replied Mr. Jordan, but it was soon evident that the Krupps were noi eager to talk about that subject. Some Get Double Salary, It was learned that the average in- crease in Wages paid by the Kruppa since the beginning of the war was between 15 and ® per cent, and in some instances experts received double the salary whi they had formerly en- joyed. The Krupps look most carefully aft- er the welfare of their employes. In erder that there should be absolutely no cause for complaint, the Krupps rave organized within their walls a number of large general stores, where any employe may deal and purchase almost anything that can be had today large departmen: etores as we know them in the United States and since all original purchases were made at wholesale prices and many before the war, the Krupp em- ployes are thus able to buy at a great- er advantage at the plant than they would be elsewhere be@ suffers here from hunger, as has been reported. I am sure we even read it in your newspaper—on the contrary, everyone gets all that is desired.’’ Herr Jordan was eager to impress the writer with the fact that Essen was a real city, with 444,000 inhabitants, and the eighth largest city in Germany. “The only cities in the Empire which are bigger than Essen,’’ he said, ‘‘are Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, Leipsic, Dresden, Coeln and Breslau. As far as the Krupps in Essen are concerned, with their families and all counted in, we employ about 35 per cent of the town. There are between 150,000 and 160,000 in the families supported by the Krupps.”’ Denies Flyers Visited Essen. The correspondent asked for details about the last visit to Essen by flyers belonging to the allies. “We know reports to that effect were given out, both in Paris and in Lon- don,’’ declared Herr Jordan, ‘‘but they are absolutely untrue. Of course, we are prepared for their visits, but up to date none have appeared.”’ There are a number of anti-aeroplane guns mounted on top of the hig tower in the center of the Krupp works and watchers are on the lookout, day and night, for an unexpected cal! on the pari of bomb throwers. This arrangement is only part of the big armed camp into which the big steel works have been turned. Just at the entrance to the Krupp works is a life-sized statue of the found- er of the big gun works. A guard of honor is’ stationed there, day and night. In addition to manufacturing siege guns and war materials in general, the Krupps conduct one of the greatest pri- vate banking institutions in the world. Most of the employes make use of the hew savings bank system which pays to its depositors 5 per cent annually in div- idends. Besides, additional amounts of the earnings of the banking system are laid aside and distributed among the de- positors under a regular lottery system. The savings institution connected with the Krupp works in Essen has been ex- isting for more than 30 years. All work- men and officials of the.cast steel works at Kssen are permitted to deposit money of their own with the firm, for whieh they receive interest. The monet is paid in at the cashier’s office, where all entries are made in receipt books in the Same way as with public savings banks.: Money is drawn at the same office. The maximum deposit permitted to each sin- gle account is 100,000 marks. Workmen Bank 20,000,000 Marks. “More than 20,000,000 marks ($7,500,000) have becn deposited wita the Krupps in | GUSTAV EC ROEDER. that way: more than 5000 workmen and about 2000 officials are depositors. The money is invested in consols or stocks and kept as securities. The dirference of interest is made up by the firm, which generally amounts to more than 1 ner cent, plus the cost of administra- tion. The saving institution rests on the principle of absolute freedom to join it or not. The deposits are paid in by be- ing regularly deducted from the wages and salaries on the paydays. which ar- rangement avoids loss of time in going to the bank’s office. Herr Jordan declared Excellency Dr. Gustav Krupp von Bohlen und Hallbach, the head of the Krupps, who married Fraulein Bertha Krupp, considered the greatest heiress in the world, would be very sorry when he learned he didn't have the honor to personally have con- ducted the Post-Dispatch correspondent through the plant. There were two niysterious looking trucks at the railroad station at Essen. They had just been transported there over the private railroad tracks which connect the Krupp works with the Gov- ernment railroads. Each truck, built out of steel, was covered completely with heavy waterproof canvas, which was fastened not only over, but also under each truck, and then the entire sealed and copper fastened. Beneath these coverings were two of the monster 42-centimeter siege guns, Where they were bound for this time, nobody could tell, and as a matter of fact, nobody inquired. These very same guns,, the writer had been informed upon the very highest authority, had seen service before Antwerp and had hammered down the heavy and modern fortifications of that city. No doubt they had served elsewhere. They had been sent to the Krupps, so that they might be most minutely examined be- fore they should be called upon to give additional service at the front. They had been pronounced fireproof once more and no doubt they will be heard of again in the very near future. Busy Bee Candy Bargain Friday. Chocolates, Bonbons, Caramels, 20c Ib. HAMBURG NEWSPAPER BITTER TOWARD THE UNITED STATES Time to Ask “Are You Neutral or Are You Our Enemy?” The Nachrichten Says. AMSTERDAM, April 15.—The Ham- burger Nachrichten, the German memorandum to the State Department at Washington recently Count commenting on given out for publication bv von Bernstorff, the German Ambas- sador, declares that the United States allows England to act as she pleases and supplies her with all the war materials she requires, and contin- ues: “Many a one who has had to ob- serve this procedure of the United States has struck the table with his fist. The anger created in Europe is greater than the people over there allow themselyv es to imagine. “Our foreign office now has found the right language against France, against England, and without any sort of consideration against the United States, too. With considera- tion and forbearance we get no fur- ther forward. The German people will gradually finish with their de- clared enemies, although tremendous efforts will be required, but behind them stand our enemies who pretend to be neutral and claim from us the rights of neutrality together with every consideration, but who, never- theless, continuously and zealously support our enemies and assist them in their war against us. “Tt is time that a strong word went to Washington.

Stream Guards and Irzsh Guards from our trenthes west of the brick stacks fol- lowed and was supported by the fire from the flanking position which had been seized the previous night by the same regiments. “The attack succeeded, the brick stacks were occupied without difficulty and a line was established north and south through a point about 40 yards east of the brick stacks. : “The casualties suffered by the Fifth Corps throughout the period under re- view, and particularly during the month of February, have been heavier than those on other parts of the line. I regret this, but do not think, taking all cycum- stances into consideration, that they were unduly numerous. “The position then occupied by the rifth Corps had always been avery vul- nerable part of our line. The ground Was marshy and trenches were most dif- ficult to construct and maintain. The Twenty-seventh and Twenty-eighth di- visions of the Fifth Corps nad had no previous experience in European war- fare and a number of the units compos- ing the corps had only recently re- turned from the service in tropical cli- mates. In consequence, the hardships of a rigorous winter campaign fell with greater weight upon three divisions than upon any other in the command. “Chiefly owing to these causes, the Fifth Corps, up to the beginning of March, was constantly engaged in counter attacks to retake trenches and Eround which had been lost. In our difficult task, however, the troops dis- Played the unmost gallantry and de- votion. It is most creditable to the skill and energy of their leaders that roem able ta report how well they have surmounted ‘all their difficulties and that the ground first taken over by them is still intact and held with little greater loss than is incurred by the troops in all other parts of the line.’’ Describing an attack on the German trenches near St. Eloi, on Feb. 28, by Princess Patricia's regiment of the Ca- nadian contingent, under command of Lieut. C. E. Crabbe, the Commander in Chief says: “Lieut. Crabbe showed the greatest dash and took his party over every- thing in a trench until they had gone down it about 80 yards, when they were Stopped by a barricade of sandbags and timbers. This party, as well as others, then pulled down the front face of a German parapet. A number of Germans were killed and wounded and a few prisoners were taken. “The services performed by this corps have continued ‘to be very valuable, since I had occasion to refer to them in my last dispatch. They have been most ably organized and trained and were commanded by Lieutenant-Colone! Fk, D. Farquhar, D. S. O., who, I re- gret to say, was killed while superin- tending some trench work on Maren 20. His loss will be deeply felt.” British Relieve the French, Emphasizing the co-operation of the British and French forces and the naw role in warfare assumed by the caval- ry, the commander-in-chief writes: “During the month of February I! ar- ranged with Gen. Foch to render tho Ninth French Corps, holding tho trenches to my left, some much-neede i rest by sending the three divisions 2of the British cavalry corps to hold a por- ton of the French trenches—and each Civision for a period of 10 days alte-- nately. “It was gratifying to me to note once again in this campaign the eager readiness which the cavairy 1is played to undertake a role which Qo02s not properly belong to them, in order to support and assist their French com- rades.’”’ Referring to Neuve Chapelle and the considerations leading up to this, tte Field Marshal says: “ALout the end of February many vita! considerations induced me to believe that a vigorous offensive movement oy the troops under my command should be planned and carried out at the éarliest pessible moment. Among the mote im portant reasons, which convinced .me of this necessity were: The general aspect of the allied situation throughout Eu- rope, and particularly the marked suc- cess of the Russian army in repelling the violent onslaughts of Marshal von liindenburg; the apparent wenkening of veryv | Same hour the Garhwhal Brigade of the THURSDAY EVENING, APRIL Lay 3993. the extreme northern portion of tne| front of attack. “At 8:06 o’clock the Twenty-third and Twenty-fifth Brigades of the Bighth Di- vision assaulted the German trenches on the northwest of the village. At the Meerut (British India) division, which occupied a position to the south of Neuve Chapelle, assaulted the German trenches in its front. The Garhwhal Brigade and the Twenty-fiftk Brigade carried the enemy’s line of entrench- ment, where the wire entanglements had been almost entirely swept away by-our shrapnel fire. Held Up by Enatangiements, “The Twenty-third Brigade, however, on the northeast, was held up by wire entanglements, which were not suffi- ciently cut. At 8:10 o’clock the artillery was turned on Neuve Chapelle, and at 8:35 o’clock the advance of the in- fantry was continued. The Twenty- fifth and the Garhwal Brigades pushed on eastward and northeastward, re- spectively, and succeeded in getting 3 footing in the village.

Early in March the difficulties became greatly lessened by the drying up of the country and by spells of brighter weather. Object Was to Take Village. “I do not propose in this dispatch to enter at length into the considerations, vhich actuated me in deciding upon the Plan, time and place of my attack. As mentioned above, the main attack was carried out by units of the First army, supported by troops of the second army and the general reserve. The object of the main attack was to be the capture of the village of Neuve Chapelle and the enemy’s position at that point, and the establishment of our line as far forward as possible to the east of that place. “The object, nature and scope of the attack and the instruction for the con- duct: of the operations were communi- cated by me to Sir Douglas Haig in a secret memorandum, dated Feb. 19.” Gen.

Prisoners subsequently reported that all attempts at rein- forcing the front line were checked. Steps were at once taken to con- solidate the positions won. “Considerable delay occurred after the capture of the Neuve Chapelle j position. The infantry was greatly disorganized by the violent nature of the attack and by its passage through the enemy's trenches and the build- ings of the village. It was necessary to get the unlts to some extent to- gether before pushing on. The tele- phonic communications being cut by the enemy’s fire rendered communi- cation between the front and the rear most difficult. The fact of the Twenty-third ‘Brigade having been held up had kept back the eighth division and had involved a portion of the Twenty-fifth Brigade in fight- ing to the north out of its proper direction of advance. All this re- quired adjustment. An orchard held by the enemy north of Neuve Cha- pelle also threatened the flank of an advance toward the Aubers bridge. Lr | er emt = “I am of the opinion that this delay A> | here OTS sted = |S. would not have occurred had the clearly 1 : ~~ ed expressed order of the general officer commanding the first army been care- fully observed. Delay in Getting Reserves. “The difficulties above enumerated might have been overcome in the day if the general officer commanding the Fourth Corps had been able to bring his reserve brigades more speedily into ac- tion. As it was, a further advance did not commence before 3:30 p. m. The Twenty-first Brigade was able to form up in the open on the left without a shot jbeing fired at it, thus showing that at the time the enemy’s resistance had been paralyzed. “The brigade pushed forward in the direction of Moulin-du-Pietre. At first it made good progress, but was subse- quently held up by machine gun fire from houses and from a defended work in the line of the German intrenchments opposite the right of the Twenty-second Brigade. “Further to the south the Twenty- fourth Brigade, which had been directed on Pietre, was similarly held up by ma- chine guns in houses and trenches. The Twenty-fifth Brigade, on the right of the Twenty-fourth, was also held up by machine guns from a bridge held by the Germans over the River Les Layes, to the northwest of Bois du Bilz. “While two brigades of the Meerut Giyision were establishing therfiselves on a new line, the Dehra dun _ Brigade, supported by the Jullunder Brigade of the Lahore division, moved to the at- tack of the Bois du Bilz, but were held up on the line of the River les Layes by a German post at the bridge which enfiladed them and brought them to a standstill. ‘The defended bridge over the River les Layes and its neighborhood imme- diately assumed considerable impor- tance. While the artillery fire wes brought to bear as far as _ circum: stances would permit on this point,.,Gen. Sir Douglas Haig directed the First Corps to dispatch one or more battal- ions of the First Brigade in support of the troops attacking the bridge. Threa battalions were thus sent to Riche- bourg St. Vaast. “Darkness coming on and the enemy having brought up reinforcements, no further progress could be made and the Indian corps and the Fourth Corps proceeded to consolidate the positioa they had gained. “Whilst the operations, which I have thus briefly reported, were going on, the First Corps delivered an attack in the morning from Givenchy simultaneously with that against Neuve Chapelle, but very little progress could be made and the troops at this point did little more than hold fast to the Germans in front of them. — Artillery Work Hindered. “On the following day, March 11, the attack was renewed by the Fourth and Indian Corps, but it was soon seen that a further advance would be impossible until the artillery had dealt effectively with the various houses and defended localities which had held the troops up along the entire front. Efforts were made to direct the artillery fire accord- ingly, but owing to the weather condi- tions, which did not permit of aerial ob- | servations, and the fact that nearly all me the telephonic communications between ty, mr) x the artillery observers and the batteries is 2 \, sag § had been cut, it was impossible to do so Went with sufficient accuracy. qi LON Wie a wide o4 a i ee eR —_— ee Only large downtown exclusive shoe store that gives 2g Stampe. 4 ‘‘OUR LOCATION SAVES YOU MONEY.’’ “La Valliere” and “Peggy Pumps” Patent or dull leathers: steel or beaded buckles and black jet ornaments. —_—e oe en ete ON |New ew SuitsofSilk & aS ee 7 Astietle is Costes of Mes of Most 'Eadlnsite Mule—et oan 15 “ DPT, geet cet es tne Pr ier. ——— te sy hes SAO AD; «Soar : PEGGY PUMPS, in bronze, patent and dull leathers, All the new colored tops. $2.50 values; $2.

LOUIS POST-DISPATCH, THURSDAY EVENING, ‘APRIL 15, 1915. | THE BACK-DOWN ON COTTON. _ | Two days subsequent to the publication of Ambassador von Bernstorff’s taunting note, de- claring that “after eight months the United States had not succeeded in safeguarding legitimate trade with Germany,” the British Government sus- pended the blockade on cotton and dyestuffs. Remarkable as the text of that note seemed when measured by the amenities of diplomatic usage, it is now placed in a rather farcical light by the back-down at London. With the adjust- ment of the Wilhelmina’s case, the most serious of the causes leading to the crisis over the com- mandeering of the facilities of the seas by the English are now removed. It is still impractical to sell Germany foodstuffs and copper and other things of which we have a plentiful supply, but ample markets exist for these commodities in other quarters. The chief hard- ship is ended by taking the ban off cotton and dyes. It is a decided victory for American diplo- macy. It indicates what patience and determina- tion may accomplish, even in the face of the diffi- culties” created by war. Shipments of cotton abroad have been brisk in recent months, but millions of bales are still held in this country. The shortage pressing hard on Germany gives that country a capacity for absorb- ing cotton for the uses of peace and war that will rapidly reduce our surplus. Thus one dark Place in the bright prospect for the future is lighted. When the advance in farm products and the re cent emphasized demand for securities of all sorts be necessary to make an exception of the great Southern staple. Cotton, too, is going to quota- tions beyond anythihg so far recorded this year. The dyes will keep our textile mills in operation. Pure white or somber black will not be the pret vailing colors of the season. To declare cotton contraband is not warranted by the military advantage gained, concedes the British Foreign Office. That was what everybody was agreed on at the London conference in 1909. It was what has been persistently urged by this country. The British Cabinet was slow in finding it out. i, Ap Ar — ee THE KUHS OUSTER SUIT. Having failed to force the resignation of A. H. Kubs for profiting in a board transaction, the Board of Education took the next logical step by ordering a suit to oust him from the board. Kuhs is under indictment for the offense with which the board charges him. The statute pro- vides for ouster on these grounds. The offense with which Kuhs is charged is a violation of his oath of office. The law should be rigidly en- forced against officials of the Kuhs type. = = -—_—=S— oe EADS HOW TOO CONSERVATIVE. Disdaining Eads How as too conservative, the hobos have elected another national leader, Al- exander Law, who is thought to be “more rad- ical.”” Of course, in view of past performances, nobody disputes the radicalism of Mr. Law—oh, the irony of a name!—but that anybody should conceive How as a_ reactionary, standpatter, mossback, old-guardsman, and defender of the ancient regime proves once more that all things are relative and shows how fast the hobo pro- gresses intellectually and politically. Think of How, who hated property and pro- priety, relegated to the limbo of innocuous re- spectability and occupying the roster with Uncle Joe Cannon and his kind! A PRISON WITHIN A PRISON. From now on it will pay society to watch Sing Sing prison, where, as fast as law permits, Thomas M. Osborne is rebuilding the very founda- tions of an American prison system, on these three principles: 1. The law must decree, not punishment, but temporary exile from society until the offender has proven by his conduct that he is fit to return. 2. Society must brand no man as a criminal, but aim solely to reform the mental conditions under which a criminal act has been committed. 3. The prison must be an institution where every inmate must have the largest practicable amount of individual freedom, because “‘it is lib- erty alone that fits men for liberty.” Instead of confinement and repression, Mr. Osborne believes, there should be in our prisons the largest possible measure of individual free- dom. The question of labor lies at the basis of our social structure. If a man who can work will not work, neither should he eat; and in prison men should learn to labor. But, says Mr. Osborne, when you force them to labor that is slave labor, and there are few who learn to love work by be- ing forced to do it. In his profoundly philosoph- ical argument, which is published in ‘Case and Comment,” and primarily addressed to the legal profession, Mr. Osborne makes this illuminating exposition of his plan, which is important to be read by the public at large: If you wish these men to work willingly when they come out of prison—and you do, for with many of them voluntary honest labor is the first necessity of their reformed life® —then you should teach them while in the prison voluntarily to choose labor rather than idleness; and in order to do that you must give them liberty to remain idle if they so choose. But with idleness would come starvation; and with starvation would come crime within the prison. Exactly so; and why not? Outside the walls a man must choose between work and idlet- ness—between honesty and crime. Why not let him teach himself these lessons before he comes out? Such things are best learned by experience. Some can acquire their lesson in life by the experience of others; but most men in prison under the present system cannot do that. They are in prison for the very reason that they cannot do that. But everyore who is not an absolute fool can learn by experi- ence, and the bulk of men in prison certainly are not fools. So inside your walls you must have courts, and laws to protect those who are working from the idle thief. And we may rest assured that the laws would be made and the laws would be enforced. But how about the thief within the prison? The answer is that there must be an inner prison. There will be those who are learning their lesson without friction, and who are rap- idly coming to the point where they can re- join the outside world. But there will also be those who cannot get along even with this @thers. Had Congress considered both sides of : westion, it would have appeared as if its, vere | and it would have allayed lon that it was not working } modified liberty: so they should be placed in en inner prison, where even their modified lib@y would be modified, and where the so- slal axatem would be aven simpler: whore ibe ’ ee en ee and at higher prices are mentioned, it will no longer standards. creased with lapse of time. ge prisoner could prepare himself by the exer- cise of a little liberty for the greater free- dom of the larger prison. Human sympathy is prerequisite to intelligence in working out human problems. Mr. Osborne man has done in generations. = = " — a *‘DON’T BADGER THEM.’’ During one of the darkest and most difficult periods of the Civil War a volunteer committee isfaction with various actions and various omis- sions of the administration. To the complaint of this committee President Lincoln replied: Gentlemen, suppose all the property you were worth was in gold and you had put it in the hands of Blondin, to carry across the Niagara River on a rope. Would you shake the cable or keep shouting at him, Blondin, stand up a little straighter—Blondin, stoop a little more—go a little faster—lean a little more to the north—lean a little more to the south? No, you would hold your breath as well gs your tongue, and keep your hands off until he was safe over. The Government is carrying an enormous weight. Untold treas- ures are in their hands; they are doing the best they can. Don’t badger them. Keep si- lence, and we will get you safe across. What Lincoln said then applies with equal force to the present situation. “The Government has carried since the Civil War. ism with which the American people sustain their President and their Government. badger them!” coln died; but the lips that are now dust still carry a message of supreme wisdom to the American people. Let them heed it. Let them abide by his counsel. TWO NEEDED REFORMS. Judge McElhinney in the Clayton Circuit Court ordered the jury to acquit B. C. Stevens Jr. of a charge of fraud because the word “did” was omit- ted from the indictment. There was plenty of precedent for Judge. Mc- Elhinney’s action. If he had not quashed the indictment a judge higher up probably would do it. It saved money. Time, labor and money, however, were ex- pended vainly in the lower court because the le- gal official who drew up the document’ was guilty of gross carelessness and because the legal officials who prosecuted the case neglected to make sure that the indictment was correctly worded. Slips like this are costly and without excuse. If the code revision bill had passed this care- less slip would not have stopped the trial. The indictment might have been amended or if the omitted word did not affect the substance of the indictment or work injustice the indictment would have been valid. We need two kinds of reform—reform of pro- cedure and reform of careless and inert offi- cials. a LL — a JUSTIFYING ITS NAME. The Safety First Federation, meeting in New York City, justified its choice of a name by decid- ing not to pass judgment on the jitney until more experience of the new tool shall have better quaiified the Safety Firsters to form an opinion. i iebiecaiiceilaiescidli liad Senco CONVICT OR UNION OPERATORS? A convict school of telegraphy will be opened at Sing Sing with the co-operation of Western Union officials. All proper means of enheartening fallen men and enlarging their equipment for self-support are to be encouraged. The mental discipline of learn- ing a trade or profession will be beneficial, even if the convicts never have a chance to work at it. The Western Union, however, promises that they will have a chance to work at it. But the same company that is preparing to take on convict operators in New York is discharging union operators in Missouri. Is a convict enti- tled to more consideration than a union man with a splendid record of prior faithful service on. the company’s operating force? Is the citizen with a message to send likely to be given better service by a clumsy convict ap- prentice than by a union man of long experience and full competence? — | - oo FLYING TO BUSINESS. The announcement that the Aero Club has es- tablished a landing place in New York City for business men who wish to fly daily between their country homes and their offices in town, reminds us of Orville Wright’s recent announcement, from Dayton, that the Wright stableizer has been per- fected so as to make aeroplaning “as safe as sit- ting in a rocking chair.” With the aeroplane invading the automobile’s field, the motor jitney cutting into the trolley’s fat monopoly, and the motor truck taking increasing shares of the steam railroads’ short haul traffic, in districts where good roads abound, it is evi- dent that in transportation at least ‘“‘the old or- der passes, giving place to the new.” GREATEST ‘BEST SELLER’S’’ AUTHOR. An idea of his loss to literature is but feebly conveyed in the bare announcement of the death of Henry W. Poor, author of “Poor's Manual of Railroad Statistics” or rather of a long dynastic succession of “Poor’s Manuals.” He was a Harvard man, and so far as the lim- itations of his work permitted, he exemplified the best of the Harvard literary tradition. New editions of it appeared until the count was lost. Originally a masterpiece, it showed what the handiwork of few authors show, an improvement with each edition. Mr. Poor had no youthful literary indiscretions to do penance for and get suppressed with the aid of his publisher. It was a work of universal appeal. It evinced high While the problem concerns itself with but one problem, this averaged a problem to each page.

We shall now (5 have something more than the usual twaddle about the Frederick case. Polemarchus. Yes. Good morning, Socrates! Socrates: Good morning! you haven’t seen Schmol- Jus around anywhere? Glaucon: I saw him yesterday. Socrates: Did he say anything about the local Republican organization making good the losses on the Frederick thefts. Glaucon: Noe. Socrates: Don’t you think that ought to be done? Glaucon: I had not thought of it. Socrates: Do think of it, then. It is not usual for a party to make good the peculations of those who are associated with it, but there are respects in which the Frederick case is peculiar. Polemarchus: No doubt. Socrates: To begin, it is not customary for a party to continue running a man for office after he has been found out. Polemarchus: Certainly not. Socrates: The usual procedure in those cases, as I recall, is to drop the man from the ticket the moment he is discovered and substitute someone else. Thrasymachus: Quite right. In continuing to run Frederick for office after he had been found out the local Republican organization assumed responsibility for him in a way, and it is no more than fair that it should pay back what he stole. Socrates: I am sure of it. In continuing to run him for office after he was found out the party un- derwrote him, so to speak, and it ought to stand by its implied agreement. | Polemarchus: ‘Those are pretty severe political ethics, but like the heathen Chinee, this case is pe- culiar. Socrates: Exactly. To see just how the matter stands, let us look at it the other way round. Say that Schmollus, on finding Frederick out, had deposed him from the ticket, announcing that the organization did not intend to underwrite either the man or his works. Glaucon: That is what should have been done. Socrates: Precisely. The party would then have disclaimed all responsibility of any sort. Polemarchus: It would, too, have rendered a pub- lic service, which is sometimes not out of a party’s line. Socrates: But it did not do that. It continued to stand for Fredericks after it had found him out, im- plying that the party would make good anything he had stolen and that no voter or investor must on that account have any uneasiness. Thrasymachus: You have it, I thimk. Socrates: What the party did do, indeed, consti- tuted by inference an announcement that if anyone did have a forged deed of trust issued by Frederick he could get his money back by calling on Schmollus. Polemarchus: By jove, Socrates! There is noth- ing else for the party to do. It’s duty is clear. Glaucon: Absolutely. Secrates: I knew you would say so.

THE NEWS FROM HOGWALLOW. Slim Pickens was over to see Miss Fruzie Allsop Tuesday, but as she was busy, he was put to turning the grindstone. e 3 While cleaning out the fence corn on his farm Tuesday of this week, Poke Eazley uncovered from among blackberry bushes 2 lot of licker so old the jug had moss on it. Atlas Peck went over the same ground last summer while picking blackberries and how says it looks like everything is against him. In a discussion of the great writers, between Miss Fruzie Allsop and the Wild Onion school teacher the other day, Miss Fruzie entered a dark horse in the form of an unknown correspondent of hers. A subscription solicitor visited Tobe Moseley a few days ago, but Tobe did not subscribe for anything. He never reads. He says if a person reads anything it will upset his own idea of things. While waiting for the mail day before yesterday the postmaster gave several yaluable suggestions for changes in the way the U. 8S. mail is handled. How- ever, he abides: by the present rules and puts up the mail within a few hours after it arrives, even if he is busy planting his garden at the time. Tobe Moseley has removed his family and house- hold goods to another section of Hogwallow on ac- count of the rats. Jefferson Potlocks is patching the roof on his The one he has had on there leaks, and he was compelled to patch it as he did not have any @xtra pans and buckets to set around over the rooms. : Ellick Hellwanger took the mumps from a man near Rye Straw last week and was landed in jail. On the following day, Sim Flinders was arrested for shooting on the highway, and was sentenced to five days in jail and a case of mumps.

Karlson had had some trouble with his girl Nan, who was in love with Sim Thompson, a capable young foreman, but a man to whom Karlson had taken an antipathy. He lived near his elevator, and about 10 o’clock, finding Nan out, he strolled over in disgust to look at his crops. He had been afraid the wheat would ferment before he could get it to market. He had just got up to the top of the ele- vator when the Divide came down.

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. PARIS, April 15.—It was generally ex- pected in Rome, telegraphs the Temps’ correspondent, that the Osservatore Romano, the official organ of the Vat- ican, would deny the interview granted by the Pope to a correspondent of the Post-Dispatch, There was not a word of denial, how- ever, and the Osservatore Romano used as its leading article a strong appeal, couched in highly lyrical and oratorical words, urging the entire Catholic press to preach peace, It follows, therefore, that the inter- view must be considered accurate. Nev- ertheless, some reservations are made by members of the Vatican circle, whe say that there can be no doubt that the Pope alluded only to a desire for peace, and spoke of the work America could do in this direction, but did not supply the details given by the Post-Dispatch. It is considered highly improbable, for instance, that he mentioned war sup- plies, as any such utterance might be held as the basis of an inferred re- proach against the United States. These reservations, however, have been made only verbally by persons without direct responsibility. Neither the Pope him- self nor Cardinal Gaspari has made any denial of the interview. (In the Post-Dispatch’s interview with the Pope appeared these passages re- ferring to the United States:) “If your country avoids everything that might prolong this struggle of nation against nation, in which the blood of hundreds of thousands is being shed and misery untold in- flicted, then can America, by its greatness and its influence, contrib- ute mtch toward the rapid ending of this terrible war. “IT place my entire hopes for an early peace upon the American peo- ple and upon the influence and pow- er which it has in the entire world. Just, impartial and at all times neu- tral in’ its attitude and efforts to bring war to an end, America, when the favorable moment comes, for the initial step for a peace sugges- tion, may be certain of the fullest support of the Holy See.” (There is nothing about the export of munitions of war, and if such re- marks occurred in the version of the interview printed in Rome they were not correct.) There is a feeling of astonishment in official Italian circles that such an interview should have been granted. The Tribuna comments upon it quite severe- ly and points out that the American journalist “‘Vigand, who is really named Wiegand,” is well known because of his semi-official relations with high German officials. It is also indicated that he is a clever German journalist, who is occupied with German interests in’ America and elsewhere, the “else- where” this time meaning the Vatican. In a word, the Tribuna holds, the journalist has canonized the Pope’s pa- cific into the form he will to fill the German requirements in America. The comments made by the Tribuna have greatly impressed Rome, especiai- ly as the interview is the first given by the Pope. It is known, morover, that Wiegand did not live in Rome, but came here solely for the interview, the audience with the Pope having been prepared long beforehand by Von Wiegand’s friends, who in this case were Germans or sympathizers with the German cause. - ——— Von Wiegand Articles Veiled Enemy Propaganda, London Chronicle Says, LONDON, April 15.-The Daily Chron- icle carries the following announcement: “It has been the practice of the Daily Chronicle, in common with some other newspapers, since the beginning of the war, to acquire for its readers such news dispatches from Germany and Austria by American correspondents as appeared to have interest, and to publish this news simultaneously with its appearance in America. “It has, however, become clear re- cently that the interviews and messages sent by a particular correspondent of German name, origin, and sympathies, are in the nature of velled enemy propa- ganda. They often contain attacks on Britain and on British Ministers and as such do not merit special publicity in England. “While, therefore, reserving our right to publish any article dispatched from Germany to America which contains news and not propaganda, we have de- cided to publish no more articles by Karl von Wiegand of the nature de- scribed, nor any article by any other correspondent which appears to be a covert attack in stating conclusively the German case.’’ Rome Newspapers Call Pope Untactful im Granting Interview. ROME, April 15.—The Vatican ig in mourning for the death of Pope Bene- dict’s brother, and all audiencés have been suspended. The Pope is pros- trated with grief since he had not been on speaking terms with his brother for 10 years. Press comments on Pope Benedict's interview with the Post-Dispatch are most unfavorable. What is character- ized as a lack of tact on the part of the Pope is deplored and it is pointed out that Pope Benedict's reputation for diplomatic ability is belied, unless the interview is denied.

LETTER OF POPE READ AT EXERCISES AT UNIVERSITY Gift of $500,000 to Catholic University of America Is Highly Praised. NOTED ASSEMBLAGE THER Cardinal Gibbons Talks on Democracy at Twenty-Fifth Anniversary. WASHINGTON, April 15.—A_ letter from Popé Benedict XV was read at the exercisés today commemorating the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Catholic University of America. The !etter speaks in high terms of the work of the uni- versity and of the gift of $500,000 from the Knights of Columbus for the endow- ment of scholarships. The letter is as follows: “To Our Beloved Sons, James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Ba'timore; John Cardinal Farley, Archbishop of New York; William Cardinal O’Cornell, Arch- bishop of Boston, and to Our Other Ven- erable Brethren, the Archbishops and Bishops of the United States of Ameri- ca. “Greeting and apostolic benediction: We have recently learned that prepara- tions were being made at Washington for observing with due solemnity the twenty-fifth anniversary of the founding of the Catholic University, and that the celebration, grace’ by your presence and by that of distinguished members of the laity, would be quite in keeping with the singularly happy character of the occa- sion. That you, beloved sons and ven- erable brethren, should above all rejoice at the prosperity of the university is obvious to everyone who realizes that the beginnings and the gratifying prog- ress of this seat of learning are owing especially to your wise and timely care. And yet this joy of yours is not 80 pe- culiar to you but that we also may in some wise share it. For we love, nay we dearly cherish the American people forceful as they are with the vigor of youth and second to none in efficiency of action and thought; and as we ear- nestly desire that an ever-widening path to the highest level of human achieve- ment may open before them, so we can- not but feel the deepest pléasure at ev- erything that furthers their progress. Worthy of Support. “Still, in your tireless endeavors you aimed not merely at enriching the mind with learning; what you chiefly sought was to imbue it with that heavenly wis- dom whose ‘light cannot be put out’ and ‘with which all good things’ shall come your pastoral solicitude must appeal to every fair-minded observer as worthy of the highest commendation and deserving of the appreciatiOn and support of your fellow citizens, especially of your Catho- lic people and in -particular of your clergy. “In this connection we wili not with- hold our praise from the Knights of Columbus who, as you lately informed us, by their splendid contribution to the funds of the university have carried into effect their wisely conceived design of extending to young men less favored by fortune the advantages of a solid and at the same time a Christian education. This noble example of beneficence, which all good men approve, we hold up for imitation and generous emulation to all who are blessed with means: and we heartily wish that you yourselves, be- loved sons and venerable brethren, will advance the cause of the university by sending to it students whose superior qualities of mind and disposition give promise of the best results. In addition to other advantages which are thence to be expected, the clergy of the church in America will receive one and the same culture and training; and this—we speak to those who know by experience—means without doubt a clergy whose piety will bear richer fruit because of their more acute and harmonious co-operation for a common purpose. “This blessing we implore with prayer- ful instance from God; and as an ear- nest of heavenly favors and a token of our g00od will, we most lovingly in the Lord bestow upon you all, beloved sons and venerable brethren, upon the rec- tor, the professors and the students of the university, and upon the Knights of Columbus as well, our apostolic benedic- tion. “Given at St. Peter’s, Rome, this 12th day of March, 1915, in the first year of our pontificate. BENEDICT Xvyv, “Pope.”’ Noted Assemblage Attends. ‘The anniversary was celebrated here today in the presence of one of the most distinguished assemblages of Catholic clergy and laymen ever gathered in this country. The three American Car- dinals, eight Archbishops, 30 Bishops, 30 Monsignori, 8 heads of religious orders, 6 representatives of colleges and univ er- sities, over 300 clergy and hundreds of distinguished laymen and women from all over the United States were present. The ceremonies began this morning with solemn pontificial mass at St. Pat- rick’s Church, at which Cardinal Farley of New York was celebrant and (Car- dinal Gibbons delivered the sermon: fol- lowed by a luncheon and later academic exercises at which the letter from Pope Benedict was read, and addresses were delivered by Cardinal O’Connel! of Bos- ton, President G. Stanley Hall of the American Association of Universities. Dr. John Cavanaugh, president of Notre Dame University, and Bishop Shahan, rector of the Catholic University of America. ! Cardinal Gibbons in the course of his sermon at the pontifical mass said: “The growth of democracy does not imply that each man shall become a law unto himself, but that he shall feel in himself the obligation to obey. If the enacting power has been transferred from the will of the ruler to the will of the people, the binding, coercive pow- er has been laid with greater stress of responsibility than ever before upon the individual conscience. Unless men be taught that obedience is right and hon- to your flocks. These proofs indeed of |: * Ah Res ia ES SS cs EY : ¥ See. e: : : ; 4. Bek ' THURSDAY EVE? Torable and necessary alike for private interest and public weal, legislation will avail but little, the lawmaking power will become a mockery and the people themselves will complain that legisla- tion has been carried tc excess. “But conscience has need of a higher sanction than any merely human sense of justice. To meet the requirements of our religious, social and political situa- tion is a duty that we owe to the churen and to our country. To fulfil it we must combine our efforts, and I rejoice that in the Catholic University a center of thought and action has been provided.” Busy Bee Candy Bargain Friday.

ELIJA, Ga., April 15.—Austin Wright, who killed his cousin, John Wright, in this county, 28 years ago, has returned and surrendered himself to,Sheriff Mil- ton of Gilmore County. The Wrights were chums and in a scuffle Austin cut John in the leg, inflicting a wound from which he bled to death. Austin imme- diately left and had never been heard from until last night. He went to Ma- con County, N. C., assumed the name of John Johnson, and 19 years ago mar- ried Miss Hattie Roland. They have a son 17 years old and a daughter 9 years old.

Dr. Stan- wix was just saying to me the other day that rice pudding is the most healthful of all desserts. He said this was because there was absolutely no nourishment in it. Now, let me see; did he say ‘nourishment’ or did he say ‘adulteration?’ Oh, well, it’s all the same. So I don't wish, you to say at the table that you don’t want any rice pudding, as you usually do.”’ “That’s the wrong way,” Jarr. ‘‘Watch me!’’ “But don’t do anything to deceive the children,” said Mrs. Jarr. “I wouldn’t have their little characters warped for all the rice pudding in the world.

At last came dessert. “Il don’t want wice puddin’,” wailed the little girl. “I want ice tweam!’’ “T don’t want rice pudding,” bawled Willie Jarr. r. iT’m astonished!” remarked Mr. Jarr, ‘regarding his wife with surprise. ‘Rice pudding? Children should never be per- mitted to eat rice pudding.” But Mrs. Jarr muffled ‘he cue. ‘Why, you must not talk that way,” she stammered. ‘‘Everybody knows rice is very healthful. Foreign nations eat nothing else. Dr. Stanwix says’’—— “Never mind what.that venerable practitioner says,’’ Interrupted Mr. Jarr. “It is now well known that rice pudg- ding is poisonous for children in Amer- ica. The climate of this country puts rice pudding in the class of deadly weap- ons.’”’ “I want some more!” oried little Wil- lie Jarr. ‘“‘You are giving Emma more than you are giving me, Ma!”’ “I'll eat mine before you eat yours, Willie,”’ piped the little girl. *“‘Remember, T advise against it, moth- er,’ said Mr. Jarr. “Take my advice and banish rice pudding, the deadly upas tree of dessert, from your table now and forever. Suppose these children should die beforé our very eyes!” “Tan I die here at the table, mam- ma?’’ asked the ljttle girl. ‘‘Wite in de dinin’ woom, like a cat wiff fits!’’ “Please, don’t talk that way, Emma!” cried Mrs. Jarr sharply. ‘*And rice pud- ding won’t hurt anybody. Your papa should be ashamed of himself for talk- ing that way. Please, eat your pudding, too, papa!”’ ‘ Never!” declared Mr. Jarr solemnly. “Ain’t there any more left, Maw?” asked Willie Jarr. ‘‘Can I take papa’s, then?” But the little girl had it first, and the children were being punished for fighting over it when Mr. Jarr left the te ble.
