President of the Senate; Signor Marcora, President of the Chamber of Deputies, and Signor Giolitti, a former Premier, but now the leader of the party in Italy in favor of neutrality. These are the first evidences of po- litical development of the day, and they were observed with deep interest be- cause of the resignation yesterday of the Cabinet on the ground that it did not have the unanimous support of the con- stitutional parties of the country in its international policy.

LONDON, May 14.—Viscount Haldane, Lord High Chancellor, in the House of Lords yesterday intimated that the Gov- ernment was considering the necessity of departing from the voluntary system of military enlistment and resorting to universal, service throughout the king- dom. For the present, he said, the hands of the War Office was full with the men ihey possessed, but it might be neces- sary to reconsider the situation in the light of the tremendous necessities with which the nation was confronted. Many More Men Required. This appears t> confirm the idea prev- alent here that, while recruiting has been satisfactory, the very heavy fight- ing which has been taking place in Flanders, where the ‘<jermans have for almost a week been attacking with the greatest violence the British line, shows that many more men will be required if victory jis to be attained. Thus far, the British troops, accord- ing to Field Marshal Sir John Irench, have withstood all the German on- slaughts, and, while at times they have heen compelled to give some ground, their counter attacks have taken them back to the position from which they started.

By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, May 14—The Government and people of the United States today turned expectantly toward Berlin, where Ambassador Gerard had been instructed to present to the German Foreign Office a note calling the attention of the Imperial Gov- ernment to the ‘‘unlawful and inhumane’’ destruction of the Lasi- tnnia and other violations of American rights on the high seas. "Germany is asked in the note to disavow the acts of her sub- marine commanders in the torpedoing without warning of the Lusitania, a British ship, with a loss of more than 100 American lives, and the American steamer Gulflight, ‘‘as a result of which fesignations for the reason that they . preferred to et ee 3 * - exhibition o Say 'aivision th ‘Testy, © essness that she is waging against ¥ - The President has been fatigued by his constant application for the last few days to the work of preparing America’s note to Germany.

Demonstrations Over Country. Dispatches received here from ail parts of Italy set forth that the receipt of the news of the resignation of the Cabinet produced an extraordinary sen- Florence, Naples, Palermo and elsewhere its receipt was followed by demonstrations. Observers in Rome deduce from those occurrences that a large majority of the people are in favor of a policy of hostility against Austria. Dispatches from Milan say serious rioting has broken out in that city over the political situation. The adherents of the opposing political factions have resorted to the use of firearms and the situation is described as grave. The action of the Cabinet leaves King Victor Emmanuel free to choose the men he considers best adapted to guide Italy in the present grave siuation. Both Signors Marcora and Manfredi have been mentioned as possible Pre- miers. Politically the King is above all parties, and he is in possession of in- formation enabling him to form excel- lent judgment as to the feeling of the country. It is believed in some quar- ters here that the present course may bring a solution to the court better than that which might have issued from the - Clash of contending elements. According to parliamentary custom. the King has the right to accept or re- ject the resignations of the Cabinet. and this morning Rome is filled with the wildest conjecture as to what his majesty will do. Some believe he will summon the Cabinet before the Cham- ber of Deputies for discussion of its course, being guidea himself by what these @iscussions reveal. . Gilolitti'a Attitude a Factor. Others argue that Premier Salandra resigned because of the attitude of Si- snor Giolitti and that Giolitt! must of necessity take the place of Salandra. More dispassionate observers are of the opinion that neither of these courses is possible, arguing that in such a grave hour of the national life the men in power must have behind them the sup- port of at least a very large majority of Parliament. It would be impossible for either Gio- litt! or the retiring ministry, after the bitter recriminations of the last 15 days, to win such support. Consequently it is argued that the King probably wil) choose a new Cabinet of men who have not taken part in the heated exchange. It is the mission of the Cabinet, the argument rungs, to steer Italy through the existing titernational difficulties wethem recenl to political parties. Another suggestion advanced is that the day has arrived for the formation of a great national Cabinet similar to that of France, a ministry to include the leading figures of all parties, to which there shal! be entrusted the mo- mentous decision now before the coun- ery. War Fever Spreading. The war fever continues to spread Italy, and the manifes- capital are partic- Wiarly impressive. A crowd which favored Italy's intervention went last night to the hotel at which Gabriele In their attempt of Ictober and No- vember last to reach C'alais, the Ger- mans continued their attacks for six wecks but the allied force was much weaker then, and the Germans were not in the position of having to meet coun- ter offensive as they have now to the north of Arras, in the Woevre and at other points along the western front. Of these the most important is that which the French are carrying out from Arras to the point where their line joins the British and in which they con- tinue to meet with unvarying success. They report the capture—which the Germans admit—of very strong fortified positions, and one road at least which the Germans have been using to bring up reinforcements to _ their positions near La Bassee. Therefore it is be- lieved here that the French successes will lighten the pressure which the Ger- mans are bringing to bear on the Brit- ish around Ypres. Galician Offensive Continues. The Austro-German offensive con- tinues in Western Galicia, where they have driven the Russians 40 miles back from their old positions and to within 25 miles of Przmysl. The fighting has become less intense and the Germanic allies have been able to estimate their captures, which they state amount to some 150,000 men, 69 guns and 255 ma- chine guns. The small number of guns on the comparison with the prisoners would seem to indicate that the Rus- sians have made an orderly retreat. In Eastern Galicia the Russians as- sert that as a result of their new of- fensive the Austrians have begun a dis- orderly retreat. Reuter’s Amsterdam says that Turkish headquarters made the following announcement: “A portion of the Turkish fleet in the forenoon attacked an English iron- clad near Morto harbor at the entrance to the Dardanelles. She was struck by projectiles in three places, namely, the commander's bridge, amidships, and astern, and sank immediately.”’ The dispatch probably refers to the British battleship Goliath, which the British Admiralty has announced was torpedoed in the Dardanelles with the loss of more than 600 lives. correspondent has German Submarines Said to Have Appeared in Mediterrane#n. LONDON, May 14.—‘‘Owing to the re- ported presence of German submarines in the Mediterranean,’’ says Reuter’s Athens correspondent, ‘“‘the British Le- gation has issued a notice through the local press offering a reward of $2500 to anyone supplying information which will lead to their destruction.”’ French Make More Gains Near Arras, Despite Rain. PARIS, May 14.—War Office this afternoon issued the following state- ment on the progress of hositilities: “It has been raining without stop since yesterday morning. Last night, in spite of the handicap of a diffi- cult and slippery terrain, we occu- pied several German trenches to the southwest of Souchez, and we have maintained on the rest of the front from Loos to Arres all the gains re- cently made by us. “In the valley of the Alsne we yes- Qentianed om Page 2, Columa & « ee ee ae 4 Thus declared a high German Gov- ernment official to me today, when I asked what the future submarine policy would be. “Germany unaffectedly regrets ana sorrows Over the loss of sO many neu- tral lives on the Lusitania,’’ he con- iinued, ‘“‘but the responsibility rests wholly with the British. “England Would Have It.” ‘Admiral von Tirpitz told you in December that Germany did not want war to the knife, but England would have it. A nation that is fighting for its very existence against so relentless and remorseless a foe as Germany is fight- ing, also has a duty to perform to its own women and children and noncom- batants, and that is to fight for them with every means at its command. With the Italian war cloud looming black and foreboding on one side, deep resentment of feeling. against America on the other, with German soldiers fighting from Switzerland to the North Sea, from Libau on the Baltic to the Carpathians, German troops massed on the Rumanian and Italian frontiers waiting the decision of those countries, fighting in Turkey and on the Serbian fronts, Germany is absolutely calm. En route from the Dardanelles, I rushed back from Bucharest on hearing of the sinking of the Lusitania, expect- ing to find excitement and Americans in full exodus. Unnatural Calmness. Much to my surprise, I haven't seen Berlin so calm since the beginning of the war. The composure and calmness impressed one almost as icy and in the circumstances unnatural. This is so pronounced that even Americans have little worry about a possible break be- tween America and Germany. So far as the embassy is aware, nons of the American colony, which. still numbers several hundred, has left or is preparing to leave. I found Ambas- sador Gerard, somewhat grave, but not excited, seconding President Wilson's efforts. He expressed confidence that President Wilson would find a course without a diplomatic rupture. Almost like irony was the arrival at the embassy today of several American members of the Womens’ Peace Con- gress at The Hague, including Angela Morgan of New York and Rebecca Shelly of Freeport, Ill., on a sight-see- ing tour. Taking Stock of Potatoes. Following closely upon the official announcement in Vienna, restricting the sale of meat to five days, stock taking of all potato supplies in Germany has been ordered. Not only must dealers, wholesalers and growers report the quantities on hand, but all families and hotels having more than ® pounds. While I, among others, repeatedly have written that Germany is amply supplied with food, such conclusions have been basd too much upon first- class hotels and restaurants. From inquiries here and in Austria among the working classes and reports of Americans who employ labor, my im- pression is that the food questions by no means is so rosy as painted.

In New York the President will review a land parade, speak briefly at a lunch- eon given by the Mayor’s committee, attend a dinner aboard the battleship Wyoming and review the fleet. He will leave for Washington late Tuesday. In order that nothing may interfere with the plans for the review, the President has directed that power over traffic in New York harbor, ordinarily vested in the Chamber of Commerce, be transferred to the Secretary of Navy for the review period. DERNBERG IN SECLUSION, IS SILENT ON U, S. NOTE Says He Will Not “Mix With Any Matter Under Official Discussion Between the United States and Germany.” NEW YORK, May 14.—Dr. Bernhard Dernburg, former German colonial sec- retary, and unofficial German spokes- man in this country, went into seclusion at the Ritz-Carlton. Reporters called on him, but were informed that the doc- tor would not see any one. The re- porters then sent a written request ask- ing for his opinion of the note sent by the American Government to the Im- perial German Governmert. In a few minutes the messenger returned with the folowing reply in Dr. Dernburg’s own handwriting: ‘‘New York, May 14.—Sir: Ever since my arrival here I have made it a point rot to mix with any matter under of- ficial discussion between the United States and Germany. “I think it wise not to deviate from this policy, and I have no statement to make.

No time is. specified for a reply in the communication, but ‘the Government and people of the United States look to the Im- perial German Government for just, prompt and enlightened ac- tion in this vital matter.’’ President to Sail for New York Tonight. The Cabinet met today in a regular session, but no further action was contemplated pending the receipt of Germany’s reply. The Presi- dent took a short automobile ride before the meeting and will depart late tonight on the yacht Mayflower for New York to review the Atlantic fleet next week. , During the trip, which will last nearly a week, the President will be kept in touch with every development in the situation, but only im- portant matters will be placed before him. He has declined many invi- tations to events in New York not connected with the review of the fleet. Although Ambassador Gerard had been directed to notify the State Department of his receipt of the American note, no word came today from him. Officials were sure, however, that the communication h&d reached Berlin and undoubtedly had been presented to the German Foreign Office. The absence of any message from Gerard they attributed to the congestion of telegraph wires in Italy. Count Bernstorff, the German Ambassador, made an engagement to go to the State Department, it was understood, to call Mr. Bryan’s attention to reports again published today purporting to forecast a complete refusal by Germany of all the American representations and point out that the Embassy was in no way a source of them. The course to be pursued by the United States in the event of a ton- compliance with its requests and expectations, is not stated, but high officials pointed out that the conclusion of the note was intended to impress upon Germany that there should be no misapprehension in Berlin of the firm pur- pose of the United States to safeguard its rights by any means necessary. This is expressed in the final sentence, which says: ‘‘The Imperial German Government will not expect the Government of the United States to omit any work or any act necessary to the performance of its sacred duty af main- taining the rights of the United States and its citizens and of safeguarding their free exercise and enjoyment.’’ Lusitania Went to Her Grave Week Ago Today. It was just a week ago today that the Lusitania was struck by a German torpedo and sunk, with the loss of many lives besides the scores of Ameri- cans. The United States Government is the first to act. The other neutral nations, most of whom have been waiting for the policy of the United States to be revealed, are now expected to decide what representations they will make. . As the note was read today by diplomatists and officials generally, one feature that attracted wide comment was the stand taken by the United States against the use of the submarine as a commerce destroyer, the atten- tion of the German Government being called to ‘‘the practical impessibility’’ of employing these undersea craft to destroy merchantmen ‘‘ without disre- garding those rules of fairness, reason, justice and humanity whieh all mod- ern opinion regards as'imperative.’’ This was taken by navel officers versed in international law and diplo- matists to mean that not only during the present war, but in future inter- national conferences to amend the rules of maritime warfare, the Americas Government would be found aligned against the use of the submarine merchantmen.

He eaid he felt sure the people of the country would support the President in every step. Congressman Gardner of Massachu- setts said: “I call the President's note resolute and vigorous. I do not see how he could have made it stronger with- cut deliberately offering provocation to Germany.

NOTE LUMINOUS, COURAGEOUS, SAYS SPEAKER CLARK Has No Doubt President WIil Succeed in Preserving Peace With Honor. By Associated Press. BOWLING GREEN, Mo., 14.— Speaker Champ Clark prepared the fol- lowing statement on the American note May to Germany today: ‘The American note on the awful tragedy of the Lusitania will attract world-wide attention, not only by rea- son of the gravity of the situation and the importance of the subject matter, but also by reason of the clear form and dignified statement of the case.”’ “In all human probability it will rank as a great State paper. The elegance of the language in which it is clothed will cause it to be universally read. It goes without saying that the situation is exceedingly ticklish and while many of our people are prone to look upon diplomacy as of little value, neverthe- less, the fact remains that diplomacy has hitherto froned out several quar- rels and entanglements which’ seemed to presage our entrance into war. “It is apropos to cite two or three ugly. situations as illustrations. First, the Mason-Slidell case during the Civil War, when President Lincoln’s good sense prevented war with Great Britain. Second, the case of the Virginius, where Gen. Grant's good sense saved us from a war with Spain. Third, the Venezue- lan case, where President. Cleveland's firm and courageous declaration pre- vented a war with Great Britain. “T have no doubt that President Wii- son will succeed in this case as well as his illustrious predecessors succeeded in the cases named in preserving peace with honor. “The last sentence in the note, as- serting the Administration’s determina- tion to maintain the rights of America and Americans, will be moet generally epplauded. That candid, luminous, courageous American assertion is clear as crystal. One thing certai—the American people will sustain the Presi- dent in this crisis, for they doubt not hie ability or his patriotism. ‘The ringing resolution passed by the great Southern Baptist convention at Houston, Tex., and of Methodists and other religious bodies are indicative of American sentiment.” Church Soleiet Will Give Recital. Miss Bernice, Kenton will give a re- cital for the Epworth League of the O’Falion Park Methodist Episcopal Church South, at Carter and Holly ave- nues, tonight.

LONDON PAPER SAYS NOTE DEFINES A GREAT ISSUE Westminster Gazette Declares Wilson Is Acting in the Name of Humanity. LONDON, May 14.—Referring to the note of President Wilson tv the Govern- n:ent of Germany, the Westminster Ga- zette says: ‘‘The central fact is that in the name of humanity and international law the United States demands a guarantee that the rights of neutrals tv travel over any portion of the seas ir neutral or belligerent vessels, shall be respected.

We will merely take note of the fact that one of the greatest issues of the war is sharply defined in this note and that the answer, whatever it may be, must make clear to the whole world whether or not Germany definitely abjures legal sanction to the limitations of that which hitherto has been unchallenveable be- tween nations.’”’ The Chronicle says the note shows that President Wilson is adhering firmly to the spirit of his original declaration with reference to strict accountability. “Nothing less,’”’ says the Chronicle, “could well be asked than a guarantee for the cessation of the illegal] and bar- barous submarine policy.’”’ WIRELESS MAN WEDS GIRL HE MET AND COURTED ON LUSITANIA They Were Betrothed When Catas- treophe Came; She Fell From Life- boat and He Rescued Her.

TRANSYLVANIA IK WAR ZONE: NOTHING HEARD FROM HER Cunard Line Offices Say That Admiralty May Order Her to Glasgow. — NEW YORK. May 14.—No word has been received from the steamship Tran- sylvania, which left this city last Fri- day and is in the war zone today. Telé- phone inquiries from friends and rela- tives of passengers have been pouring in all day at the offices of the Cunard Line and at newspaper offices. There have been rumors that the ship has been torpedoed and sunk as was the Lusi- tania, but not one word about her has been received. A statement was issued by the Cunard office as follows: ‘We do not expect to hear from the Transylvania until her arrival in either Glasgow or Liverpool. Under her sched- ule when she left New York she was to go to Liverpool, but if Capt. John Black has received at sea orders from the British Admiralty to go first to Glasgow by way of the west coast of Ireland, the company will have no word of her until she makes port. “It has been the custom hitherto for the Cunard ships to report by wireless as soon as they sight Fastnet, but since the sinking of the Lusitania this cus- tom has been abandoned. The Transyl- vania left New York a few hours after the news of the Lusitania had been made public. There were few cancella- tions among her passengers. She is due at Liverpool on Saturday night or early Sunday morning. The Cunard office will not be surprised if nothing is heard until Sunday night or even Monday morning, if she should be sent first to Glasgow.” “= + 153 Women and Children Booked. Seventy-six cabin passengers and 300 in the steerage were booked to leave for Liverpool today on board the White Star steamship Cymric. Among the cabin passengers were 2 women and seven children, while 40 per cent, or about 120 of those in the steerage, were women or children, making a total of 153 women and children aboard. Not an American Aboard. Without an American on board the White Star liner Cymric left today for Liverpool under the British flag. She had aboard 965 persons, including the crew of 400. Her commander, Capt. Beadnell, a lieutenant-commander in the Royal Naval Regerve, said that on the way across the Atlantic the pas- sengers would have a daily boat drill and instruction in the adjustment of life preservers. Four hundred of the passengers were in the steerage. A large percentage of them were children and nearly all were Canadians. Barred From Italian Ships. Agents of Italian steamship lines here announced that instructions had been received by them to refuse passage to women or children of German, Austrian or Turkish birth. Men of those nation- alities already had been excluded. Officials of the American line have refused a demand by members of the crew of the steamship St. Louis for $20 extra pay for the trip to Liverpool on which the steamer is to start tomor- row. The offiicals declared that the risk to the St. Louis of being torpedoed by a German submarine is very small as the ships of that line have carried no contraband since the beginning of the war. Inquirers at the American Line were told that the steamship Phila- delphia, which saileq under the Amer- ican flag May 8, probably would ar- in Livorpool tomorrow aftef- rive noon. Reports that the White Star Liner Adriatic failed to sail from Liverpool Wednesday were accepted by the line’s officials here as correct. The delay was reported to be due to a strike by the crew for (tincreased wages. The Arabic Overdue. The Arabic, which left Liverpool May 5, was due here today, but had not been reported up to noon. The French Line announced a post- ponement until next Tuesday after- noon of the sailing of the steamer Rochambeau, which was to have left tomorrow for Bordeaux. A delay in receiving cargo was assigned. THINKS GERMANS SURPRISED BY LOSS OF LIFE ON LUSITANIA NEW YORK, May 14.—An officer of the Atlantic fleet yesterday ex- pressed the conviction that it was no part of the German plan to drown the passengers of the Lusitania. “T believe,” he said, “it will even- tually be found that the. intention was to destroy the vessel only—that the Germans had in mind the Titanic and the two hours she remained afloat after hitting the iceberg. They doubtless calculated that the Lust- tania would remain afloat as long, and lang being only a few miles dis- tant and the sea being smooth, there would be no trouble in rescuing all aboard by the boats on the ship or by rescuing craft which would imme- diately respond to her call for aid. “But see how all of their caicula- tions went to pot. The torpedo hit in the stokehold and blew such a hole in her side that she heeled over so fast it was impossible to lower the boats on the port side. At the same time her wireless was knocked out of gear, and, what no one could have foreseen, it was found impossible to stop the engines, and therefore many of the boats that were lowered were swamped alongside. “I believe Germany was as much Later | dumfounded over the disaster as was the reat of the world.” “WORLD” PREDIGTS APOLOGY OFFER AND REPARATION Kaiser’s Embassy Said to Hav Been Instructed) on This Course by Wireless. NEW YORK, May 14.—The New York World today prints the following Wash- ington dispatch: “Apology, reparation, but no guaran- tee of the safety of Americans afloat under belligerent flags. “This is the high light of the pres- ent attitude of the German Govern- ment in the situation created by the Lusitania’s destruction. The World last night obtained directly from the Kaiser’s embassy a definition of the present position of Germany—a defini- tion that is believed to be a precise forecast of the German answer to Presidentt Wilson’s note. ’ “The attitude set forth here is based upon wireless instructions from Berlin and has been forwarded from this point to the high officers of the embassy in New York and elsewhere for their in- formation and guidance. “The expression from Berlin is sup- posed to be kept secret and to be for the private use of the embassy staff. It is based upon the voluminous reports that have gone from hers to Germany since last Friday. Three Points Involved. “The secret precept upon which the embassy is basing its conduct is divided into three parts. The first seems (to deal with admonitions to America; the second, with disavowals of any hostile intent, and the third and most impor- tant with an outline of what the im- perial Government is willing to do to avoid war with this country. This last point is insisted upon emphatically, and whatever may have been the case be- fore, there can be no question but that Germany’s representatives in this cour- try have been instructed to put forth a sentiment of friendship and, so far as he can, the Ambassador is to avoid a contingency that would mean a sus- pension of diplomatic relations, in which he is to be backed up in the full- est degree by Berlin. “This is the prescribed tone the em- bassy takes—a tone sounded first im Berlin and merely echoed here: “Germany feels great surprise at the bitterness of the outburst of feeling engendered by the Lusitania. She in- tended her warning about ocean travel under belligerent flags to be taken se- riously. The warnings had been inspired, not as first ascribed, by a petty desire to knock off a few paltry dollars from the receipts of British shipping com- panies, but by sincere desire to prevent Americans from needlessly exposing themselves to Germany’s only sea weap- on, the submarine. They point out that the use of the submarine has brought about new conditions of naval warfare, and it was in hope of meeting this need that the warnings were uttered. “Germany feels that this bitterness has been in part at least, deliberately accentuated and emphasized by the anti- German press, and she points out that the publication of the Bryce report at this moment was unfair to her. She contends that a spirit of fair play would have caused the press to withhold pub- lication of such inflammatory assertions, which, by the way, she is soon to deny in full, until a calmer time had ar- rived, “Anything, in Honor, to Avoid War.” “Germany claims her long time friend- ship with America to be strong evidence that she wishes friendly relations to continue. So sincere, says Berlin, is the German desire for American friendship, because of the millions of sons and daughters of the Fatherland who have found their home here, that she is will- ing to do anything in honor to avoid war. “It is Berlin's firm conviction, which her emissaries are called upon to re- peat, that America’s entrance inty the war would redound only to America’s disadvantage. Germany will fignt on to the bitter end and can only be con- quered, if conquered at all, at terrible cost. “And if at; last conquered, says Ber- lin, it will mean the complete domina- tion of the British, which will mean heavy burdens and great disabilities for the United States. “Finally the instructions defining the German attitude reach the point of the loss of American life on the Luassi- tania, and this phase of the expression is held to be accurately prophetic of Germany's answer to America’s note dispatched today. “Sentiments or regret and tender of apology are made, while at the same time emphasis is laid upon the warn: ing issued which, in Germany’s eyes placed the risk squarely on those who sailed on the ship. “But in spite of the fact that she re- gards her record as clear, Germany will offer reparation for having caused the death of American citizens. This repa- ration would probably take the form ef money damages and official condo- lences. It might even include damage for the loss of individual property, not of a contraband nature. To Refuse Safety Guarantec. “Having said this word about repara- tion, Germany has said all. There is now direct information that Germany will absolutely decline to guarantee the safety of Americans who take passage on ships of an enemy country. The qualification of enemy ships carrying contraband is not made because of the impossibility, on Germany's part. of making search of the vessels. “The reason that Germany deciines to give a guarantee of safety to the citizens of the United States afloat un- der other fiags than their own ts that to do so means a complete abandon- Scene of Battle Where Germans eavy Losses to French mit SCALE OF MLES Ses G/ES 45 the German line north of Arras and to lessen the great Ger- ye French offensive at Carency is desperately striving to break man pressure against the English line in Flanders. ‘We re- gret to report the loss of many of our brave men and much material,”’ was the admiasion of the Berlin official report Thursday . (me te or team strongest, in fact her only, sea weapon at this time. It is impossible for a submarine to attempt to stop high-speed vessels, Berlin explains. The danger for a submarine for such a course puts it out of the question. “So long as Germany is compelled to continue her submarine blockade of En- glish waters, just so long must the methods employed in the case of the Lusitania be followed. They cannot be changed—they can only be abandoned, and that to Germany is unthinkable un- less Great Britain makes great conces- sions, first of all giving up the stopping of foodstuffs going to Germany. “The question is asked by Germany ae to just what concessions England would be willing to make if Germany were to be inspired by America’s protest to an abandonment of her submarine war. She realizes the fact that the point at is- sue between America and herself has no direct bearing as between England end Germany, yet she thinks she is en- titled to consideration because of the feilure of this country to utter a protest when England, with no shadow of pre- cedent or justice. dectared the entire North Sea a war area, subject to En- fiand’s domination and prescribed Chan- nels for ships to follow, under peril of being sunk if they laid their courses otherwise. Germany Has Grievances. “Germany assumes to feel herself a deep sufferer at the hands of Great Britain in the matter of broken prece- dents of international law. If she has broken any of the rules, which she does not admit having done, she is only following, she says, Fngland’s exani- ple and of the many instances alleged against England one is emphasized— that of the destruction of the German cruiser Dresden, when she had been in- terned in a Chilean port, and even after she flew a flag of truce. “On the whole, the abstract of Ger- many’s position supplied to the World breathes a more hopeful spirit of peace, that is if peace can be maintained with- out a guarantee of American safety in belligerent bottoms, for on that point Germany's present attitude is absolut and unyielding.’’ LUSITANIA QUESTIONS PURELY LEGAL, PROFESSOR DECLARES Former Vean of Columbia Law Scheel Would Have Them Settled in Intermational Ceuncil. NEW YORK, May 14.—Prof. George W. Kirchwey, former dean of Columbia Law School, and Prof>John W. Erskine of the English department, in a discus- sion of the sinking of the Lusitania, pleaded against rushing to arms at this time. Prof. Kirchwey said that the ques- tions arising were purely legal ones. and these he would have the master legal minds settle in a general council of all nations to establish a new code of warfare. “My advice to the President,” he said. “would be: Don't be too fond or too stiff about the rights of neutrais. Don't take an attitude from which you can't withdraw without war. I think there is need of a law forbidding neutrals from ealling on enemy ships carrying contraband.” Prof. John Erskine said: “I wish we could apply Socrates’ philosophy when he was kicked by an ass, and ask: ‘Why, when I am kicked by an ass, do I need to kick back? ence ment of submarine warfare, which is her | a as NTR British Merchant Ship Is Reported to Have Sunk Submarine BLYTHE, England, May 14. fA.

LONDON, May 14.—Germans and Aus- trians again besieged the American consulate, but instead of demanding protection for themselves and property, they sought the ald of the American officials to prevent their being repatri- ated ig consequence of the decision of the Government anfiounced yesterday by Premier Asquith. Most of the callers were either over or under the intern- ment age. Many were women, with their children. These persons explained that for years their homes had been in this country and that their deportation to Germany or Austria would be regarded by them as a greater calamity than internment here. The American Consul-General, Robert P. Bkinner, took their state- ments, but was unable to promise any action in their behalf further than the transmission of their requests to the proper authorities. Eighty Germans and Austrians were stricken from the membership roll of the Iron and Steel Institute today. by unanimous vote of a meeting held in London. Large numbers of persons affected by the Government's plan are surrendering hourly rather than await arrest under the internment order.

They now regard the German Grive through West Galicia as having been checked permanently. “The arrival of fresh Russians troops, which successfully engaged the German flanks, has relieved ‘pressure on the Russian center. These attacks on the German wings, in which the Russian cavalry has been supported effectively by mountain artillery, have been prose- cuted with unsgual flercencss. along the center of the Polish front in the vicinity of Sklierniewice, and Rawa, is said to have been due to Rus- sian initiative, with the object of hold- ing the Germans and their positions and preventing utilization of these forces elsewhere. , 7 The retreat of the Russian center from Lupkow is explained here as due not to pressure from the Germans, but to the exposed situation of the Russians at that point in view of the rolling back of their right flank. This wing rests on the low- er Wisloka at Dembica, ® miles due west of Tarnow. It is strongly en- trenched. With the checking of the German east- ward movement between the Vistula and the Carpathians, there are already indications of a new Austro-German of- fensive against the Russiar left, in the direction of Stry and Uzsok. Evidence of this is seen in the transfer of German troops eastward through Lapkow. In view of this new activity the Russians attach great importance te their recent successes further east in the trans- Dniester country where they occupy a 4é-mile front between Obertyn and (Czerniwitz. To the north the Ruesians have been uble to hold the Germans on a line be- tween Mjtau and Kelimo and have driven them out of Ragola, midway between hovno and Rossizna.

Government has been with the ebaracter © of the Imperial German Government and with the high principles of equity by which they have in the past been actuated and guided, the Government of the United States cannot believe thet the commarders of the vessel which committed these acts of lawlessness did so except under a misapprehension of the orders issued by the Imperial German naval * authorities. It fakes .t for granted that, at least within the practicab possibilities of every such case, the commanders even of submarines were expected to do nothing that would involve the lives of noncombatants or the safety of neutral ships, even at the cost of fa‘ting of their object of capture or destruction. It confidently expects therefore that the Im- perial German Government will disavow the acts of which the Govern- | - adopted by their adversaries in seeking to cut Germany off from all commerce, to adopt methods of retaliation, which go much beyond the ordinary methods of warfare at sea, in the proclamation of a war zone from, which they have warned neutral ships to keep away. This Gov- ernment has already taken occasion to inform the Imperial German Gov- ernment that it cannot admit the adoption of Such measures or such a warning of danger to operate as in any degree an abbreviation of the rights of American shipmasters or of American citizens bound on law- ' ful errands as passengers on merchant ships of belligerent nationality; and that it must hold the Imperial German Government to a strict ac- countability for any infringement of those rights, intentional or inci- dental. It -does not understand the Imperial German Government to question those rights. It assumes on the contrary, that the -{mperial Government accept as of course, the. rule that the lives of the non- combatants whether they be of neutral citizenship or citizens -f one of the nations at war, cannot lawfully or rightfully be put in jeopardy by the capture ur destruction -of an unarmed merchantman, and recog- nize also, as all other! nations do, the obligation tp take the usual pre- caution of visit and search to ascertain whether a suspected merchan- man is in fact of belligerent nationality or is in fact carrying con- traband of war under a neutral flag. ‘«The Government of the United States therefore desires to eall the ‘attention of the Imperial German Government with the utmost earnest- ness to the fact that the objection to their present method of attack against the trade of their enemies lies in the practical impossibility of employing submarines in the destruction of commerce without disre- garding those rules of fairness, reason, justice, and hunfanity, which all The President has spoken firmly.

In qpening the broad question of the legality and propriety of a submarine blockade, the President has abandoned the safe and firm basis of obvious and unquestioned American rights, and ven- tured upon the debatabjJe ground of in- ternational exigency and morality, and opened the way to a retort which it will be difficult for the United States to bear calmly. We may be subjected to an affront which we have invited, or forced into a position of undue and undesired aggression.

New York World: President Wil-' son's note to the German Government cannot fail to satisfy the highest ex- pectations of the American people. It is calm. It is restrained. It is cour- teous, but with a cold, cutting courtesy that gives added emphasis to every word. There can be no mistake what- ever as to the intentions and purposes of the American Government. There can be no question of its “not to omit any word or act necessary to the per- formance of its sacred duty of main- taining the rights of the United States and of its citizens, and of safeguarding their free exercise and enjoyment.” Grounding his thesis in the Falaba case, the Cushing case, the Gulflight case and the Lusitania massacre, the President in re-emphasizing the doctrine of “strict ty” drives straight we ths heart Of the ' hole issue of sub- marine note before 5 o’clock, the hour cor-. responding to that at which it was to be delivered to the German For- eign Office in Berlin, the newspa- pers were unable to print the note in their customary early morning editions.

If he is to fail in his effort, it will bé@ in good conscience and in a good cause. On this tissue the President, sustained by the unanimous voice of the greatest and most powerful of neutral nations, can say, in the words of Martin Lu- ther: “‘Here I stand. I cannot do oth- erwise. God help me.’’ New York Tribune: What he had to do, Mr. Wilson did with utmost sim- plicity, clarity, completeness. Speaking for a whole nation, he has set forth the. American case against the German Gov- ernment in language that cannot be mistaken. He has done more than this —he has drawn an indictment against the German nation which will lie for all ages to come, if the Kaiser’s Govern- ment fdils now tw meet the demands of the President of the United States promptly and surely. It is but natural that every American should turn first to these sentences in the Presideht’s message which cover the demands of the nation. In this they will not be disappointed. Those who feared Mr. Wilson would shrink from the ineluctable duty will find no con- firmation of their apprehension in the text of his message. Reading these concluding lines, many thousands of American citizens will this morning recall the words written on the stone on Lexington Green, where al] American history began: “Don't fire unless fired upon; if. they want war, let them begin it here.’’ New York Herald: The President has well expressed the unanimous voice of the great American republic. It might have been stronger; it might have been weaker. It will serve. Mr. Wil- son has overcome the influence of those members of his Cabinet who are for peace at any price. He has lived up to the very best traditions of his charac- ter. In a document which makes no threat, but which with the greatest so- lemnity states the unalterable position of the American Government, has made a request on Germany which is suscept- ible of but a single meaning. Words cannot be plainer. In the body of his message to Germany laying the ground ‘for the demands quoted above, President Wilson inflicts upon the Im- }perial German Government a castiga- tion of a whip of scorpions.

Recalling the humane and enlightened attitude hitherto assumed by the Imperial German Government in matters of international right, and particularly with regard to the freedom of the seas; having learned to recognize the German views and the German influence in the field of international obligation as always engaged upon the side of justice and humanity; and: having understood the instructions of the Imperial Ger- man Government to its naval commanders to be upon the same plane of humane action prescribed by the naval codes of other nations, the Government of the United States was loath to believe—it cannot now bring itself to believe—that these acts, so absolutely contrary to the rules, the practices and the spirit of modern warfare, could have the countenance or sanction of that great Government. It feels it to be its duty, therefore, to address the Imperial German Government concern- ing them with the utmost frankness and in the éarnest hope that it is not mistaken in expecting action on the part of the Imperial German Government which will correct the unfortunate impressions which have been created and vindicate once more the position of that Government with regard to the sacred freedom of.the seas. nificant is the President’s plain declara- |. In other words, Germany |: ‘‘The Government of the United States has been apprised that the Imperial German Government considered themselve the extraordinary circumstances of the present war and the measures to be obliged by her papers and.cargo. in the instances of which we have humanity. | si American citizens act within -_—_ -— Ee SS tll tl tl i - modern opinion regards as imperative. the officers of a submarine to visit a merchantman at sea and examine It is practically impossible for them to make a prize of her, and, if they cannot put a prize erew on board of her, they cannot sink her without leaving her crew and all on board of her to the mercy of the sea in her small boats. ' Imperial German Government frankly admits. It is practically impossible for These facts, it is understood, the We are informed that spoken, time enough for even that poor measure of safety was not given, and in at least two ofthe cases cited not so much as a warning was received. cannot be used against merchantmen, as the last few weeks have shown, without an inevitable violation of many sacred Principles of justice and Manifestly submarines their indisputable rights in taking their ships and in traveling wherever their legitimate business calls them upon the high seas, and exercise those rights in what should be the well- justified confidence that their lives will not be endangered by aets done in clear violation of universally acknowledged international obligation and certainly in the confidence that their own Government will sustain them in the exercise of their rights. ‘(There was recently published in the newspapers of the United States, — regret to inform the Imperial German Gcvernment, a formal warning purporting to come from the Imperial German Embassy at Wash- ment of the United States complains, that they will make reparation so far as reparation is possible for injuries ‘vhich are without measure, and that they wil’ take immediate steps to prevent the recurrence, of any- thing so obviously subversive of the principles of warfare for which the Imperial German Government have in the past so wisely and so firmly contended. ‘*The Government and people of the United Sta*es look io the Im- perial Cerman Government for just, prompt and e¢-lightened ac’ion in this vital matter, with the greater confidence oecause the United States and Germany are bound together, not only by special ties of <F ship, but also by the explicit stipulations of tho treaty of 1828 beti; the United States and the Kingdom 6f Prussia. ‘‘Expressions cf regret and offers-of reparation in ease of the de- struction of neutral.ships sunk by mistake, while they may satisfy in- ternational obligations if no loss of lifé results, cannot justify or excuse a practice, the natural and necessary effect of which is to subject neu-/ tral nations and neutral persons to new and immeasurable risks. ‘‘The Imperial German Government. will not expect the Govern- ment of the United States to omit any word or act necesszrv to the performance of its sacred duty of maintaining the rights of the United States and its citizens and of safeguarding their free exercise end en- joyment, : ‘*BRYAN.”’ that will restore good feeling between the two countries. * * * The question is now up to Germany. It is unneces- sary to speculate whether the American note will lead to war or peace, because the issue rests with Germany and not with the United States. The alterna- tive ig, clearly set forth. Boston (Mases.) Herald: President Wilson has never written a great state paper more exactly suited to the occa- sion. We hope most fervently that in a spirit of reasonableness Germany will coincide with the enlightened position set forth with clarity and power by the President. Boston (Mass.) Journal: President Wilson’s words are those of a patriot. We cannot believe that a nation which is bound by so many ties of friendship to this nation is so far possessed by War madness that she will fail to heed the message. Bosten (Mass.) Globe: President Wilson hag not shirked a grave respon- sibility. The American note clearly shows that Germany must relent or take whatever consequences we may decide to adopt. Boston (Mass.) Post: The note ris all that such a message from a justly aggrieved nation to the aggressor nation should be. In it is the voice of the American people at its finest and best. It is. a powerful appeal to German sanity. . Philadelphia (Pa.) Public Ledger: The’ administration has spoken, and spoken to the point. The German Gov- ernment cannot have the slightest doubt as to its meaning. Will Germany listen to the voice of prudence before it is too late? Springfield (Mass.) Republican: The Government's position in this case ig the country's position. It is not ex- treme, yet it covers the ground. Buffale (N. Y.) Courier: Right- minded men of every party will approve its tone and tenor. The clearness, the definiteness with which this presenta- tion is made can satisfy the most rigid Americanism that views large affairs sanely. It seems to meet every require- ment of American patriotism and honor. Buffalo (N. Y.) Express: There has been no backdown. Let the people’s re- sponse go out from every corner of the land. We are all Americans. Albany (N. Y.) Argus: Dignified in lives and ‘property of our people in the future, dr in what manner this coun- try will receive her refusal to, remains to be seen. It is a grave alternative; and while it is not likely to result in war, it will bring about an enmity to- ward Germany that will be full of anxiety. # Louisville (Ky.) Courler-Journal: The note to Germany meets the require- ments and is such as the Government of the United States should address to Berlin. The President leaves little room for parley and none other than mouthings or rupture remains for Ger- many. Indianapolis (Ind.) Star: In manly fashion the President’s note does not spring from the logical consequences of his position, but accepts the full sig- nificance of his attitude., St. Paul (Minn.) Pioneer Press: The American noté reached to a won- derful height of forceful diplomacy. Hoping for the best the universal American sentiment will be that Amer- ica has done its duty and the people will support the President through whatevér may he the consequences. Springfield (1U.) State Journal: It is the dignified protest of a nation, which, while feeling that its rights and the rights of other neutrals have been violated, is neither vindictive nor re- sentful. Chicago (Ill.) Tribume: Whatever the fate of our relations with Ger- many, the President undoubtedly has voiced the sentiment of the nation on the use of the submarine and ag to the rights of neutrals on the high seas. Chicago (1ll.) Herald: There is now no possibility of mistaking the position of our Government. And it is a po- sition in which the American people will sustain their Government in whatever measures may be necessary to uphold ft. The Post-Dispatch has obtained the following editorial expressions from newspapers throughout the United States on the American note to Ger- many: Philadelphia (Pa.) Inquirer: We have not always agreed with the Pres- ident of the United ‘tates, but when it comes to a question of the nation’s hon- or, the President must be upheld. The note is written deliberately and coolly. There is not a word spoken in haste. — Philadelphia (Pa.) Record: The note is in every respect a masterly document. It puts the German Government squarely in the position of choosing whether it declaration must be backe™ “\p if it costs, for every American life already sacrificed, a thousand more of .Amer- ica’s best manhood; and for each dbllar lost in the sinking of the Lusitania a million more in treasure. Springfield ‘Mass.) Union: No- hody, not even the most punctilious German sympathizer, can assert that this’ note is intemperate, granted that its premises and logic are sound, and !'we do not see how they can be contro- verted. Portiand (Me.) Press: President Wilson has taken a bold position. It behooves us to havé full confidence in the President and be prepared to give him the support he has a right to ex- pect. Portiand (Me.) Argus: The note will have the unqualified approval of the American people. The whole nation will be with Him (the President) what- ever eventually may arise. Seattle (Wash.) Post-Intelligencer, It is no jingo utterance, no ‘‘mere scrap of paper,’’ but a cool, calm declaration —an ultimatum, if you please—of this American nation, and in support of it there will be no faltering or division. Pueblo (Coloe.) Chieftain: A _ wise, strong, patriotic message free from jingo hysteria. Colorado Springs (Colo.) Telegraph: The United States should insist upon a separation of the passenger traffic and the war traffic. We should be prepared to uphold the nation’s honor at any cost. Pueblo (Colo.) Star-Journal: Tha American people, that Germany be held to a strict accountability for its actions. Denver (Cole.) Post: The Presi- dent’s note to Germany is manly and patriotic. The stand of the United States is unquestionable, notwithstand- ing the suave and diplomatic expres- sions used. The red-blooded people of the West would have preferred a note containing a little more emphasis and a little less circumiocution. But, any- how, come what will, the contents of this note and its sentiment are indorsed by the unanimous sentiment of the great Rocky Mountain regions. Rochester (N. Y.) Post-Eixpress: Courteous in tone and without biuster, the communication makes it clear to average understanding that we do not and shall not submit to war on the note fully meets the expectations of the) the loss of her citizens, but while de- manding justice, Coes so as one wh92 would render justice to all others. Sacramento (Cal.) Bee: The Amer- ican people today have rich reason to be proud of their President. Woodrow Wilson has met a grave crisis splendid- ly, facing it with firmness, without fire- works. Las Angeles (Cal.) Times: It is ap- parent that the feeling and attitude of the President and his advisors is con- ciliatory. That is the state of mind of the country. But America will, insist to the last that there be no more mur- derous attacks on merchantmen carry- ing noncombatants, women and children. Fresno (Cal.) Republican: If Ger- many is prepared to make its subma- rine blockade of England physically as well as psychologically effective, we may be sure the Imperial Government will yield to no argument except force, and we do not understand that word “act’”’ contemplates use of force; nor that the American nation is in possession of any force to use, if it were so contem- plated. Seattle (Wash.) Times: It is a tem- perate and meaningful note. Ninety per cent of the American people will stand behind the President in his efforts +o carry out those real American declara- tions of true patriotism.’ Chicago (111.) Post: The President strips the issue between the United States and Germany down to this fun- dament&l: If the submarine and inter- rational law conflict the submarine, not law, must yield. This is an absolute negation of ‘“‘necessity knows no law.” It is, necessity must know law. We too have our necessity as well as those na- tions whose sense of rights of others may be weakened by the desperation. of feeling brought by the war for exist- ence. Kansas City (Mo.) Star: President Wilson has said what was in the hearts of his countrymen. He has said it with dignity, with consideration, but with” unmistakable directness. His words em- body the idealism of the American peo- ple and the principles of high humanity which they obligation to maintain the] ultimatum .or as an opportunity of rescinding an indefensible proclamation. If she is determined to ‘continue her submagine warfare she must face at least an immediate severance of diplo- matic intercourse with this,country. If she is willing to abandon a policy of wholesale murder and cowardly assas- sination, she can do so with no loss of prestige by a simple disavowal of the acts of her naval officers.. Our protest is unequivocal and was meant to be sound, ; Chicage (Ti.) Journal: The Presi- dent’s note is even a more admirable and far-reaching document than was in- dicated by the summary sent out yes- terday. It is particularly admirable in that it makes the defense of American rights an occasion fo#-upholding the rights of humanity... It is a solemn fo- tification that enginesg of war which violate the rights of neutrals and the principles of humanity cannot be used, no matter how handy some saber-rat- tling Power might find them. Loutaville (Ky.) Post: “After a week of angry discussion the people know they have a leader whose broad human- ity is based on those national instincts which guided the course of the United States from the beginning. There are no neutrals In America now. We are all earnest supporters of the President, who, by patience and fortitude, has es- tablished his right @o lead a free people. Chicago (11).) News: Every one who_reads the note should bear in mind that the cause represented by the au- thorities In ‘Washington is not alone the cause of Americans and of all neutrals. | or accept the consequences of our “othe -er action.” Salt De we — Neratd-Repeb- Boma, st - grate ying to ty mor the | ing public opinion.

He answered many questions designed, his counsel said, “to show the dominance of the defendant” in the Repfiiblican party. Barnes denied that h® had tried to influence the votes of legislators at the time of the senatorial deadlock in 1911 and he swore that-he had néver talked ‘to’ Charles F. Murphy of Tammany Hall but once in his life. William M. Ivins, his attorney, asked him about previous testimony as to his statements about the primary law. “What I said,” asserted Barnes, was that I was against the primary law ays it then stood. I said that the opposite party could injure any man in the primaries if they desired to do so.”’ “Did you say the system of direct primaries was subversive to party in- terests.?” “It could not be.” : Met Murphy Only Once. Barnes said he had never talked with any member of the Legislature in re- gard to his vote during the election of a United States Senator in 1911. He sald he had met Charles F. Murphy once at a dinner and had. not seen him since. He declared he had not talked about the senatorship with him or -any- of--his agents. Barnes said that after two months of deadlock in the Legislature he talked with several legislators on the proposi- tion of the Republicans voting for an in- dependent Democrat. He denied he had met William Loeb Jr. in.the of- fice of J. S. Bache & Co. in 1911. “Mr. Loeb is mistaken,’ he said, but added that he had met him there sub- sequent to the election of 1912. “Mr. Loeb testified to a conversation with you about an arrangement he said you had with Mr. Murphy. Did you have such a conversation with him?’’ “I did not,’’ replied Barnes. Contradicted Roosevelt's . Testimony When on Stand Yesterday. Barnes spent two hours on the witness stand yesterday and contradicted wholly or in part various portions of the testi- mony of Col. Roosevelt. and. gave his own version of several incidents de- scribed by Roosevelt. Barnes swore that he did not talk to Col. Roosevelt about the franchise tax bill prior to its passage. He denied emphatically that he had asked the then Governor of New York not to sign the bill. With equal emphasis he de- nied that he had ever told Col. Roose- velt that men identified with big busi- ness interests contributed to both par- tles in order to gain protection and that if it was not given them they would cease to contribute—that he had urged the re-appointment of Lou Payn as State Superintendent of Insurance and that he discussed legislative and execu- tive matters with him on many occa- sions. He said he did none of these or a half a dozen other things the Colonel described him as having done. He did, however, declare by direct in- ference that he considered Col. Roose- velt the leader of the Republican party in this State from 1906 to 1910. And he said that he visited the White House in 1908 at the request of the President and was invited to see August Belmont about the racetrack bill. He quoted Col. Roosevelt as saying that the bill must be defeated. This was the bill which failed of passage because of the vote of State Senator Grattan, who, according to previous testimony changed his mind about voting for it after an alleged talk with Barnes the night before it came up for consideration. As for the statement accredited to him by Col» Roosevelt that. the people ‘‘were not fit to govern themselves,”’ Mr. Barnes declared he never said it. Tells of Political Career. During the day he painted in words a picture of his political career and gave his ideas about political organization. In this connection he said: I told Mr. Roosevelt, as have I told a great many others, that if we were to maintain In this country a system oi party Government or- ganization was necessary; that no movement could ever come to achievement unless it was organ- ized. The idea that the people can move without order or policy is ab- ‘surd upon its face. They must have leaders, or they do not move at all, and no party movement or any other movement can progress unless it is financed by people whose hearts are in the work and who are willing to give to the cause for which they stand. No or- . ganization can succeed unless at- tended by men who are willing to give their entire time to the work. i have said, as I say now, that no party, whatever it be—Republican, Democratic, Progressive, Prohibi- tionist, Socialist, Labor:or Inde- _ pendent—can move forward without proper control and guldance. ‘Col. Roosevelt seemed to be intensely interested in what opponent had to say. Occasionally he took notes. Warm Weather Luneh on Macaroni, Spaghetti, Salads, Chile; Baked Beans, etc.; large portion, 10c.

To Have Pretty Hair lar Gets Jewelry Valued a 4 reahadied the home of ae | liam E. Arnold, 2134 Benton street, in the absence of the family yesterday aft- ernoon. Jewelry valued at $130 was stolen. If your hair is not as soft, and pretty, or as fresh and full as that of some friend, do as she does—give it daily attention, just the same care you would give a plant to make it grow healthy and beautiful. Luxuri- ent hair—soft, fluffy, thick and lus- trous—is really a matter of care. If it is too thin, stimulate the hair roots and bring out the new hairs. If it is too dry and brittle, soften it up—lubricate it. If you have dan- druff it’s because the scalp is too dry and flakes off. Freshen up the scalp and all dandruff disappears. An inexpensive tonic, called Pari- Bian Sage which you.can get from Wolff-Wilson Drug Co., or any drug counter, is just what you need—it softens the scalp, nourishes and in- vigorates the hair roots, immediately removes all dandruff and makes the hair fluffy, lustrous and abundant. One application will stop itching head and cleanse the hair of dust and ex- cess Oil. Parisian Sage takes away the dryness and brittleness, makes the hair seem twice as abundant and beautifies it until it is soft and lus- trous. By the use of this helpful tonic any woman can-~easily have beautiful hair; and pretty hair will surely in-| crease charm and beauty.—ADV. 65 AMERICANS IN PERIL FROM .

Miss Laura Johnson, 32 years old, of 1418 Chouteau avenue, was arrested at Ninth and Chestnut streets this fore- noon for being intoxicated on the street and was taken to the Central District Station. Desk Sergeant Alexander was escort- ing her to the holdover when shé knocked from his arms a record book which he was. carrying, seized him by the throat and drew a knife from the “senr7g of her dress and tried to cut him. He broke away and ran and the yeoman rursued him around the hold- over tion room. A policeman and a tu.fikey seized her and took the knife from her. Matron Kintzing was called to search the woman. Miss Johnson kicked her in the face. It was necessary to have two men hold her while the matron searched her. No other weapon was found. She was then locked up. Negro Caught With Stolen Goods Escapes. A patrolman stopped a negro who was carrying three electric fans, a type- writer and a flashlight at Main and Valentine streets at 1:15 o’clock this morning.

CONDEMNS WARLIKE PRESS Declares Country’s President “Bows to Nothing but the Will of the People.’’ NEW YORK, May 14—In a _ three- column “box’ ’and in blackface type, Herman Ridder, in The Staats-Zeitung, this morning says: “Anyone who runs can gee that a large section of the press of this. coun- try has been doing its best during the last six days to dictate to the President the course which he shall follow in handling the extremely delicate situa- tion which has arisen in our foreign relations. “These papers, whose names are on everyone's lips, have sought to oppose the will of the mob to the calm reflet- tion of the chief executive of the land. They have filled their columns with in- cendiary communications, which neither represent public opinion nor have the redeeming features of logi¢ er truth. Belgian Stories Rehashed. “They have reproduced at a critical, and as they perhaps think, a psycholog- ical moment, extensive extracts from the British report on ‘German atrocities’ in Belgium, seeking by the circulation of this rehash of stories long since twice told and long ago disproved, to further inflame the passions of the people. They have, moreover, attempted to further their designs of provoking war by publishing extracts from German pa- pers commenting on the sinking of the Lusitania, intended to maintain popular passiofs in the country at white heat. ‘The people of this country are Over-/j}: whelmingly for peace, yet a large sec- tion of the press which claims to serve them is clamoring for war.

The committee expects to obtain the remaining thirteen $100) subscriptions within the next few days. This part of the campaign is in charge of a sub- committee. ~ Women Are Effective. A considerable portion of the other $24,000 already is in hand, the committee announced, and the collection of the re- yaainder is being pushed vigorously. The newly organized Womens Auxil- jsry, of which Mrs. Breckinridge Jones of 4 Portland place is president, 1s con- centrating all its effort on this work, with gratifying results. All Expected by May 28. Oliver F. Richards, chairman of the DBxecutive Committee, said today he had mo reason to doubt that the entire $50,- 000 guaranty fund would be subscribed by May 28, when the Symphony Society holds ite annual meeting at the Artists’ Guild. He said he would not disclose the names of the $1000 subscribers until the list waa completed. “When the list of 2% $1000 subscriptions is complete, it will be a comparativelv easy task to raise the remainder,’”’ Rich- prds said. ‘% Why $50,000 Is Asked For. “T have been asked why we are ask- ing for $50,000 at this time, wHere here- tofore we have maintained our orchestra with .a $30,000 guaranty.

FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 14, 1915. ‘ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH STAKEHOLDER IN A BALL GAME BEI ALSO BAGHOLDER Jury Decides, After He Pays $140 Over on One Side, He Must Pay Amount to Other. The next time Frank Payeur of French Village acts as stakeholder, if, he ever does, he will expect the bet- tors to indemnify him against being made a bag holder as well as a stake- holder. A jury in Judge Vandeventer’'s court, East St. Louts, decided today that Payeur will have to pay to Thomas Gunning $140 which he has already paid to William Gleason and Thomas Reay, and pay it out of his own pocke§g, not to mention the costs of the litigation. All of which befalls him by reason of having acted as stakeholder at an Edge- mont baseball game. On Sept. 20, 1914, the Thoene Cardi- nals and the Edgemont Regulars played at Edgemont and excitement and bet- ting ran high. Gunning bet Gleason and Reay $140 that the Cardinals would win. Gleason put up $103 and Reay $37. Broke Up in a Row. The game broke up in a row in the ninth inning and there was no decision. A week later Payeur paid over the money to Gleason and Reay on the —_—_——— — — — THE EASIEST WAY TO END DANDRUFF There is one sure way that never fails to remove dandruff completely and that is to dissolve it. This destroys it entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, or- dinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning most, if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will com- pletely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop instantly, and your hair will be fluf- fy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive, and four ounces is all you will need. This | theory that, as Gunning’s team had not won, he lost the bet. Gunning sued Payeur. At the trial an effort was made to show how the score stood in the ninth inning and what the row was about, but the Judge said that had nothing to do with the case. The question was whether Gunning had de- manded the return of his money. Gun- ning said he had. Payeur said he had not. Under the. Hlinois law a bet is an illegal transaction and either party to} it has a right to demand and obtain his money back. The finding of the jury was that Payeur should not have paid the money to Gleason and Reay and that having done so he must now return to Gun- ning $149 Mayoralty Contest Bets. Persons who made bets on the recent mayoralty race in East St. Louis fol- lowed the case with great interest Bets aggregating between $15,000 and $20,000 are said to have been made. Mollman was elected Mayor, on the face of the returns, by 27 votes. Chamberlin announced at first that he would not contest. Now he has filed a contest. Stakeholders who paid bets to Mollman supporters in the belief that there would be no contest are wondering what will happen to them if Chamberlin is found to have been elected. RECOVERY OF BANKER'S WIFE CHECKED BY A DOUBLE SHOCK Mrs. Thomas Wright, Overcome by Weakness From Recent Operation, Falis and Cuts Hand. Mrs. Thomas Wright, wife of the vice president of the Third National Bank, at St. Hospital, as the indirect result of an accident in the bathroom of the Wright apartment at the Beers Hotel, and Olive street, is seriously ill Luke's Grand avenue yesterday morning. Mr. Wright told a reporter that -while holding a glass in her hand Mrs. Wright, who recently underwent a seri- ous operation, was overcome by weak- ness and fell. The glass which she held was broken when it struck the floor and Mrs. Wright’s hand was cut. It was feared today that the shock of the fall and of the consequent injury to her hand would retard her recovery from the operation.

But ‘allow me to compliment you, doctor. Mrs. Prentice says she hasn’t felt as well for years, and so naturally is most enthusiastic over her new physician. It was fortunate for her you happened to be on the train. I thanked him coldly and he resumed: “Mrs. Hemming will call tomorrow,” looking at Jane. ‘“‘Tonight we are going to the theater.’’ , “Why, so are we,” Jane told him.

The St. Louis County Court today de- cided to refuse the application for the incorporation of a town to be known as Uniondale, including the Home Heights residence district and forming at present the northwest one-fourth of the Ritenour Schoo! Pistrict, which lies along the Creve Coeur line, five miles west of the city limits. The matter has been before the Court of Appeals, which issued a writ of prohibition. A school district fight, which has been carried on for five years, is involved in thé attempt to incorporate a new town. One of the avowed objects of the proposed incorporation was to get a better school] building for Home Heights. Home Heights pupils, in the upper grades, now have to walk two -miles to the Ritenour District School at Over- land Park. A bond issue for $14,000 for a four- room building at Home Heights and one for $9000 for additions to the Over- land Park building, were voted last Saturday, after several bond-issue pro- posals had failed. CABLEGRAM IS FINAL CHAPTER OF ONE FAMILY’S SEA TRAGEDIES ‘Two Lest on Lusitania Were Bound - for Burope on Rumor That Mother Had Survived Another Wreck. CHICAGO, May 14—The final chapter in the sea tragedies of the Mounsey fam- lly of Chicago was read today, when the following cablegram from Liverpool, lingland, was received: “It is not mother.”’ It was a rumor that Mrs. Wm. Moun- sey, now known to have been lost on the Empress of Ireland, teally survived in a mental wreck and was now known in Liverpool as Kate Fitzgerald, that caused Wm. Mounsey, his son-in-law, Charlies H. Lund, and Mrs. Lund, to sail on the Lusitania. The two men lost their lives, but Mrs. Lund survived to send her disappointed message received teday by her sister, Ethel Mounsey. Mill Creek Blasting Causes Protest.

Ded once EVENING, MAY 14, ee SE JURY RULES UNION | | CAN'T FORCE A MAN TO DRINK FREE BEER Verdict Found for N for Max Lehman, Brewery Worker, Who Refused to Visit “Sternewirth.”’ After this a m can be a member of the Brewery orkers’ Union in good standing without making two trips an hour to the “sternewirth” ‘]for beer and without taking an hour and a quarter to do a three-quarters- of-an-hour job. A jury in Circuit Judge Hennings’ court has found that &@ man who stays away from the “sternewirth” and hustles through his job is entirely within his rights, and has given a verdict for $1010 against officers and directors of Brewors and Malsters’ Union No. 6 in favor of Max Lehman of 1014 South Eighth street, because they put him out of the union and deprived him of the’ opportunity to work on that ac- count. In 1911 Lehman was employed at the Wainwright Brewery. He was tried by the Executive Board of the union on the charge of failing to make trips to the “sternewirth” twice an hour and of cleaning a 100- barrel cask in three-quarters of an hour, a task to which it had been the custom for members of the union to devote an hour and a quarter. He was not permitted to face his ac- cusers. When their accusations were repeated to him he made denial. He was fined $5 on the charge of bearing false testimony. Union Sustains Fine. Lehman appealed to the union, and at its next meeting it sustained the Executive Committee. He failed to pay the fine, and, according to the union officials, appeared at a meet- ing in May of that year and refused to pay, thereby forfeiting his mem- bership. Lehman filed suit in the Circuit Court for damages. In his petition he set up that he waa the owner of a certain valuable civis right and property right and public utility, namely, his industrial skill and his readiness, willingness and ability to work and labor as a brewer, and his right te dispose of his labor according to his will. On and before May 18, 1912, he stated, he was so engaged and had gained for himself and was enjoying the good opinion of his employers and all those who were working with him, and was earning $20 a week. After his suspen- sion he appealed to the International Executive Board. Although the local officers were ordered by the Interna- tional Executive Board to permit him to work until his. appeal had been passed on, hé alleged that the local of- ficlals coerced the company by threats and kept him from obtaining employ- ment until Aug. 13, 1912, when the executive board ordered his reinstate- ment.

TU. PRESIDENT SAYS Decigres Some Pastors Dare Not Open Mouths on Prohibition. Mrs. F. H. Ingalls, for 3% years presi- dent of the St. Louis district of the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union, in an address at the district convention of the organization at the Y. W. C. A. yesterday, condemned the churches for apathy on the liquor question. She said: ‘‘There are churches in this city where the pastor dares not open his mouth on prohibition. He preaches to the man in the gutter, not to the drinker in his own congregation, or to the member of his church who holds stock in a brewery. The church could kill the sa- loon if it would.”’ . She said the prohibition movement in Missouri was retarded by the selfish- ness of persons in local option com- munities, who ‘“‘do not care about the starving children in St. Louis, and the fact that St. Louis had to run a soup- house for destitute men last winter.’’ A bouquet of 26 roses was presentcd to Mrs. Ingalls in commemoration of her long service.

IMANY MINISTERS T0 URGE VOTE ON PARKWAY PLANS Numerous Pulpits to Observe Sunday, June 6, as “Civic Sunday.”’ WOMEN SHOW ACTIVITY They Are Arranging for a Mass Meeting in Lafayette Park in Proposal’s Behalf. Parkway Meetings Tonight. 8 p. m.—Negro mass meeting, Union Memorial Church, Leffingwell and Pine. Speakers, Moses Hartman, Albert Bur- gess and W. H. Parker. 8 p. m.—Hodgen School Patrons’ Asso- ciation, Barr Branch Library. Speaker Dr. E. O. Greer. 8 p. m.—McKinley High School. Speak- er, C. H. Heidbrink. The Citizens’ Parkway Committee an- nounced today that many ministers of various denominations had responded to the committee’s request that they preach sermons on civic problems on June 6, which has been designated by the committee as ‘‘Civic Sunday.” The pastors also have pledged them- selves to urge the voters in their con- gregations to vote June 8, at the spe- cial parkway election. ; No request was made that clergymen, in their sermons, advocate the park- Way, but they were asked to urge their congregations to vote either for or against the parkway and to vote on all civic issues looking toward the city’s progress. “Civic Saturday and Sunday.” Plans for a Civic Saturday and Sun- day, June 5 and 6, are being formulated by the Women’s Parkway Committee as a formal close of the parkway campaign. A mass meeting in Lafayette Park, in charge of the women, is one of the features planned for Civic Saturday. The parkway will be discussed tonight at the McKinley High School during a declamatory contest of four literary so- cieties. C. H. Heidbrink, chairman of the speakers’ committee, will outline the Parkway ordinance and will exact prop- ositions. An active campaign by the women was inaugurated this afternoon at a meet- ing of the Mothers’ Club of the Sherman School at 3970 Flad avenue, where a parkway primary talk was made by Mrs. O. R. Lake. St. Louis Architects Prefer More Com- prehensive Improvement. The St. Louis Chapter of the Amer- ican Institute of Architects made public today a resolution adopted by the chap- ter April 26 in opposition to the pro- posed new parkway. The resolution was sent to the Post-Dispatch in response to a published inquiry regarding the at- titude of the architects. The only reason for opposition ex- pressed in the resolution is that a more comprehensive scheme for the improve- ment of the city should be prepared. G. F. A. Brueggeman, president of the chapter, said that it had been agreed among the members that none should make any statement in addition to those contained in the resolution, and that that would be all the architects would say on the matter at the present time. The resolution follows: ‘‘Whereas, The St. Louis Chapter of the American Institute of.Architects has been requested by Mayor Kiel to in- dorse the proposed new Parkway as pre- sented by the City Plan Commission, and ‘‘Whereas, A committee of the St. Louis chapter has given several weeks’ study to the proposed Parkway with a view to ascertaining its relation to any practicable and comprehensive city plan, and ‘‘Whereas, This study has confirmed the belief that the Parkway, as pre- sented, is not the best possible solu- tion of the problem, ‘Therefore be it resolved, That the chapter regrets its inability to indorse the present proposed Parkway, and rec- ommends that a comprehensive plan for the development of the entire city be prepared in order that all future im- provements, parkways, boulevards and parks shall be properly correlated.” BiG CROWD EXPECTED AT NEW FILTER PLANT OPENING Free Transportation to Celebration at Chain of Rocks Tomorrow Afternoon. In view of the prediction or fair weather for tomorrow, the Water De- partment is preparing for a very large aitendanze at the celebration of the orening of the new filter plant, which will take place at the Chain of Rocks tomorrow afternoon. The speeches will begin at 2:3) and daylight fireworks will fcllow. The steamers Grey Eagle and Spread Eagle, which leave at noon from the fcot of Locust street, will carry mém- bers of civic and business crganizations, out-of-town visitors and others who have free tickets, distributed by the rep- resentatives of different organizations ir. the Mayor's advisory ccuncil. The harbor boat Erastus Wells, leaving at 12:15, will carry city officials. Those rot having steamboat tickets can obtain free transportation in electric cars from the Baden pumping station, near the north end of the Broadway line, or in steam traina from the foot of Grand ave- nue. The electric cars will start at half- hour intervals, and the steam trains will rur hourly, beginning at 11 a. m. Burial of Mra. Charles S. Cox. The body of Mrs. Charies S.

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH >HINA EXPLAINS ACTION IN YIELDING TO DEMANDS IN JAPAN’ $ ULTIMATUM Her Government Declares She Exhausted Every Effort to Uphold Her Rights and Protect Foreign Interests. PEKIN, May 13.—The Chinese Gov- ernment has issued ‘‘a frank and plain gtatement’’ connected with “‘the drastic action of Japan’’ in presenting its ulti- matum on May 7. Contending that China aimed at the consolidation of the friendship existing between China and Japan and was par- ticularly solicitous for the preservation of peace in the Far East, the state- ment says: “Unexpectedly, on Jan. 18 Japan adopted the unusual course of present- ing a list of 21 momentous demands ar- ranged in five groups. The first four groups were each introduced by 1 pre- amble, but there was no explanation to the fifth group. However, no dif- ference was indicated in the @vcyument between them and those embodied in the preceding grdéups. “No Reason tor Demands.” “Although there was no cause for such a demarche, the Chinese Govern- ment, in‘deference to the wishes of the Japanese ‘Government, immediately agreed to open negotiations on those articles which it was possible for China to consider. “Despite the palpableness of the whole of the demands being intended to ex- tend the rights and interests of Japan without securing a quid pro quo of any kind for China, China approached the pending conferences in a spirit of the utmost friendliness and with the de- termination to deal with all questions frankly and sincerely.” The document complains of the ques- tions raised by Japan as to the forma- tion and procedure of the conferences and with Japan’s refusal to agree to ting the minutes of the conferences and the suspensions of meeting, ‘‘obviousty with. the object of compelling compli- — FRECKLES Now Is the Time to Get Rid of These Ugly Spots.

Even when Japan dispatched large bodies of troops to Shantung province 6nd Manchuria, with the ostensible pur- pose of relieving the garrisons, it is pointed out, China, although the action caused indignation and alarm on the part of the Chinese people, exerted its influence to prevent a rupture of the negotiations. “Throughout the conference,’’ says the statement, “the Chinese Goverrv ment steadfastly strove to arrive at an amicable settlement and made every concession possible. Of the 21 demands submitted, China agreed to 15, some in principle, some textually, six of them being initiated by both parties.” There is then set out at great length the demands to which China agreed. At the first conference she accepted in principle the demand that she assgnt to the transfer of German rights in Shantung to Japan, but wished to add a clause that the matter should be left to a discussion of all the parties in- terested at a peace conference and that Japan should agree to restore the leased property to China. This, it is contended, Was not a demand on Japan, but a re- iteration of Japan’s statement in an ultl- matum to Germany last August. What China Demanded. China also asked for the assumption ‘by Japan of the responsibility for in- demnification for losses arising from the military operations; that the cus- toms, telegraphs and postoffices should be continued to be administered as here- tofore and that the military railways and telegraphs installed by Japan should be removed forthwith; that the Japanese troops, outside the leased territory should be withdrawn and those within’ should be recalled when Kiauchau was returned to China. Other demands agreed to by China were: That she should not cede or lease to any third Power any territory inland, or land on the sea border, of Shantung; that Japan should be given preference, provided Germany abandoned her privi- lege of supplying capital for the con- struction of a railway from Chifoo or Lungkow to connect with the Kauchau- Chinanfu railway in the event of China deciding to build that railway with for- eign capital, that she would open cer- tain important cities in Shantung, as trade marts, under regulations approved by Japan, aithough these privileges were additional to any enjoyed by Germany and in the opinion of China acceptance was not essential to the preservation of peace in the Far East. Later China agreed to the extension of the leases of the Dairen, Port Arthur-. South Manchurian and .the Antung- Mukden' Railway.. China’s “Bitter Experiences.” The statement ccntinues: . “Owing to the bitter experiences which China has sustained in the past in con- rection with leased portions of her ter- ritory it has become a settled policy not to grant further leases, nor extend the terins of those now in existence. There- fore, it was a.significant indication of China's desire to meet Japan's wishes when she agreed to this exceptional de- parture from her settled policy.”’ At the same conference China agreed to refrain from raising objectivns to the principle of co-operation with the Hanyehping Co., if that company should arrive at an agreement in this respect with the Japanese capitalists concerned. With reference to this question it was pointed out to the Japanese Minister that in the provigional constitution of the republic Chinese subjects were guar- anteed the right of protection of the property and freedom to engage in any lawful occupation and the Government was precluded therefore from interfer- ing withthe private business of the peo- ple and could not find any other solu- tion than the one agreed upon. Hoped for Modification. After a long explanation of the con- sideration accorded the original de- mands and the concessions made in an effort to placate the Japanese, the state- ment says: “The foregoing is an outline of the negotiations up to April 17, It was hoped by the Chinese Government that, in view of the great concessions made by China at conferences held up to this time, the Japanese would see a way of affecting an amicable settlement by modifying her position on certain points in regard to which it had become mani- fest China would encounter almost in- superable obstacels to making further concessions. “The Japanese Government, however, suspended negotiations until April 2, when they surprised the Chinese Goy- ernment by presenting a new list of 24 demanda and fequested that China ac- cord their acceptance without delay, adding that it was their final proposal At the same time the Japanese Minister stated that Japan would restore the leased territory of Kiaochau at an op- portune time in the future if China agreed to the new list of demands with- out modification. Four New Demands, “This Kiauchau offer, however, was in no sense a new proposal, as it was advanced at the first conference. But the new list introduced four new demands concerning inner Mongolia. In defer- ence to the wishes of Japan the Chinese Government gave the revised list the most careful consideration and being sincerely desirous of an early settle- ment offered new concessions in a re- ply presented on May 1, agreeing to three of the four articles relating to in- ner Mongolia.” After relating the details of the new concessions, the statement continues: “Having made these concessions, which virtually brought the views of China into line with those of Japan and ex- plained in a note accompanying the reply how difficult it was for China to make further cencessions, the Chinese Government hoped Japan would wou their reply, thus bringing the negotia- a tions to an amicable conclusion. Japan, however, expressed dissatisfaction with Ching’s reply, withdrew the conditional offer to restore Kiauchau, and intimated that if China did not give full compli- ance with the 24 demands, Japan would have recourse to dtastic measures. Exhausted Peaceful Efforts. “Upon r ceiving this intimation, Cifina, impaired ‘by a conciliatory spirit and desirous of avoidinng a rupture in the relations between the two countries, made a supreme effort to meet the situ- ation. She represented to Japan she would reconsider her position and make another attempt to find a solution satis- factory to Japan with respect to the articles China had declared could not be taken up for consideration, but to which Japan attached importance. Even cm the evening of May 6, after the Japanese Ministers had notified China the ultimatum had arrived in Pekin, China, in the interests of peace, still exerted efforts to save the situation by offering to meet Japan's wishes. Her overtures again were rejected and thus was exhausted the means at the disposal of China to prevent an impasse. “It is plain China proceeded to the fullest extent possible in making con- cessions in view of the strong national sentiment manifested by the people. Throughout the whole period of the ne- ! FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 14, 1916. —_ gfotiations, all the Chinese Government strove to maintain was China's’ plenary” sovereignty, the treaty rights of foreigh Powers and the principles of equal op- portunity. To the profound regret of China, however, the tremendous sacri- fices they had shown themselves ready to make proved unavailing and the ul- timatum was delivered by the Japanese Ministers at 3 p. m. on May 7. Sought to Protect Foreign Interests, ‘As to the allegations in the ulti- matum against China, the Chinese Gov- ernment hopes the foregoing outline of the negotiations constitutes a clear and dispassionate reply. nature of the course they should take with reference to the ultimatum, China was influenced by a desire to preserve the Chinese people as well as the large number of foreign residents in China from unnecessary suffering and algo prevent the interests of friendly Powers from being impertiled. “China was compelled to comply in full with the terms of the ultimatum. but in complying China disclaims any desire to associate itself with any re- vision which thus may be effected upon various conventions and agreements concluded between various other Powers in respect to the maintenance of China’s territorial independence and integrity, the preservation of the status quo and the principle of equal opportunity in In considering the‘ od A tem commerce and industry for all nations in China.’’ CHANGES DUE TO ELDER STATEMEN TOKIO, Japan, Friday, May 7, by mail to Shanghai, May 13.—Information has reached the Associated Press con- cerning the manner in which a peaceful adjustment of the differences’ between Japan and China was reached at a time when a rupture seemed probable. The Elder Statesmen advocated strong- by a policy of moderation and their views finally prevailed. The demands of Japan were modified and China's ac- ceptance followed. The action taken by Japan represented @ compromise. The Elder Statesmen urged, instead of the presentation of an ultimatum to China, the sending of a special mission to President Yuan Shi Kai in an effort to persuade him to accede to’ Japan's wishes. This plan was abandoned, however, in view of the aroused state of public feeling. The Cabinet held the view that pub- lic opinion demanded drastic action. The Eider Statesmen, however, felt that tv send an ultimatum demanding accept- ance of Japan’s demands in full would | ernment was justified -jn assuming. | Marquis Matsukato, former Premier, and Field Marshal Prince Yamagata of the military council of the empire, ques- tioned the advisability of risking a war with China at a time.when most of the world was in arms, ™ The Cabient was unwilling to abandon its purpose to send an ultimatum to China. It was, accordingly, decided, as & compromise measure, to waive for the time being the principal articles in Group V, against which China's chief objections were raised. This group con- templated Japanese supervision over certain military, financial and political affairs of China. The adoption of this program was finally agreed to by both the Cabinet and the Elder Statesmen, who were in complete agreement at the end. The acceptance of the program by China has just been made a matter of history.

She has trav- eled @ great deal under the chaperonage of her cousin, Miss Ida Pollard, making almost every year a tour. She Is al- ways seen at the opera and concerts, is fond of sports, is a fine horsewoman and is very much admired. No one knows just when the affair began, because since the Maffitts and the Keisers lived across the street from each other down in the 3500 block on Washington avenue and Miss Maffitt was a little girl and Mr. Keiser a young beau, they have been friends. They have so many of the same friends and both are so popular that their marriage seems eminently suitable.

Her mother was Miss Mary Skinker, and through her she ig related to the Rives, Randolph and many other co- lonial families of Virginia. Mr. Keiser is the son of the late John P. Keiser and resides with his mother at 44 Portland place. He is a nephew of former Judge Warwick Hough and is a member of almost every club of social or civic impor- tance in S8t. Louis—the Racquet, Country, 8t. Louis, Noonday, Automo- bile, Sunset Hill, the Civic League, Business Men’s League and City Club, besides being president of the St. Louis Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Infirmary, a charity institution; the Hospital Saturday and Sunday Asso- ciation, and a member of the Zoolog- ical Board, —— announcement of the en- The engagement of Miss Edna Dela- field, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wal- lace Delafield of 5028 Westminster place, and Cyrus Burnham More, is being an- nounced by means of notes, which were received today by her friends.

She made her debut three seasons ago and her first bow was made as one of the special maids at the Veiled Prophet's ball. Mr. More is the son of Mr. and Mrs. E.

Davis Declares. i} Commissioner Dwight F. Davis, donor hunself a one-time member of a team In an interview given to a Post-Dis- patch reporter yesterday Mr. Davis dis- cussed many features of the interna- tional tennis situation introduced %y the unfortunate circumstance of Wild- ing’s death at the fighting on the Dar- danelles. In substance Mr. Davis said: “Wilding was considered by many the greatest of all tennis players, although that is saying a lot. I have seen him Play and formed this opinion of him: That he combined all the best features of the English and American styles of play; and that for pure tennis ‘form’ he was undoubtedly in a class by himse!f among players of today. ‘ “Wilding was without a weak point. In McLoughlin, rated now as the cham- ‘pion of the world by most experts, the opposition has generally found weak points to attack. His backhand used to be one of these. " Wilding was a fin- ished player on every count A Champion in “Form.” “He was a strapping fellow, six feet or more tall, with a great reach. He had a severe serve, extremely diffi- cult to handle. He was not an expo. nent of the ‘soft’ game, but could varv his style to suit the opposition. Back court or net, backhan or forehand found him equally able, There was fin- ish to all his playing. I know of no player today of equal rating who could approach him in this respect. “De you consider him to have been a better man than McLoughlin or Nor- R. DAVIS’ modesty prevented him from mentioning that he MI himself, with Holcombe Ward, formed one of the tightest two-man combinations known to the game, before their defeat by the same Do- herty brothers. Mr. Davis, being left-handed, was enabled to work combinations with his partner that fre- quently threw opponents into the guess- work state of mind. “How do you rank the Doherty’s as singles players compared to the best men or today fr” H. L. Doherty’s Great Record. “Well, you can form vour own opin- ion as well as I. H. L. Doherty was a small man and his brother a large one. At the start of their international playing it was the general opinion thav Bos F., the big fellow, was the ace of the team. I always thought different- ly, as did other Americens. In fact ws astonished England by electing to play R. F., the big fellow, instead of H. L., on one occasion. That was in 12.

Brookes?” the interviewer asked. “There you go into the realm of opin- ions. As a stylist he was the superior ef both. Brookes had poor tennis form. McLoughlin is fag from being a polished player in some respects. But both are winners, Brookes by uncanny divina- tion of his opponent’s tactics, Mc- Loughiin by putting on extra speed ané court-covering power under stress. Hin endurance also is wonderful. No Certainty Who Is Best. “All these men have beaten each oth- er, in turn. To separate them would appear impossible. McLoughlin’s feat of beating both at the West Side courts, Long Island, last year seems to give him the mastery. He showed improve- ment in back-hand play and other of his weak points. Whether he could re- peat or not if a chance were possible is just guesswork.”’ “How do these three men compare with the champions of ather days— are they better than Larned, for *x- ample?’ “As to the individuals I would not like to say. It’s just the old question: ‘Has tennis progressed?” Naturally we sup- Pose that it has. Huwever, when it comes to the doubles I am inclined to believe that the greatest team in the history of international contests was that of the Doherty brothers of Er: gland. ’ Man Who Gave International Trophy a Member of Team That First Won It Larned in the singles; with his brother he defeated Ward and Beals Wright in the doubles. 1906—Defeated H.

No Cup Matches for 1916. “What is the outlook for Davis cup competition ?’ the interviewer asked. “It is impossible to guess when play will be resumed. When it does, natural- ly America has ail the better of it. The leading players in this country are young. In all other countries the stronger players are older men. Brookes. for example, is close to 40 years of age. I'm told. “There is this weakness to the Amer- ican team, at present—it lacks an ex- perienced doubles combination.

Jarr!"’ she cried, §ust so upset I don’t know what to do! And I’m just as sure as I can be that I've slopped some of it on my Gress, because after you once open them you can’t keep them from slosh- ing if you carry them!

So we picked out four cans and I brought them home, and when I opened them two of them looked white till I stirred them, and then I found they contained blue paint, and the other two contained red, and, of course, they are not re- turnable after being open. “Are you sure?” asked Mrs. Jarr in deep sympathy. “Some stores are very obliging about taking things back!” “This store won't. I tried,” said Mrs. Rangle, “and you are always so handy with leftovers and such things, I thought I'd bring them over to you and see if you could use them.”’ “Heir!” said Mrs. fully. “You say two of the cans looked like white paint till you stirred them? Why 4difd you sstir them ?” “Well, I don’t mind the 36 cents.” said Mrs. Rangle, “but you know how the men are. If Mr. Rangle finds out I’ve bought something I can’t use, just because it was cheap, you know what he’ll say” “Oh, don’t I?” remarked Mrs. Jarr. “Men think they’re smart! But never mind, dear. I hear that there is a poor family down near the coal yards, and they have had a great deal of sick- ness. Lets’ take the paint down there and give it to them. We are both inembers of the Helping Hand, you know!” “The very thing!” said Mrs. Rangle, enthusiastically, So Gertrude got an- other bunch of old newspapers and wrapped up the paint cans again, while Mrs. Jarr put on her best hat Jarr thought- | Don’t Ever Let Anyone Tell You This as a New One.

I reckon you think ‘that is a mighty funny method of earning anything, but some to- bacco has tags which are redeemable, and the machine was one of the pre- miums. Mrs. Bonham just beamed with pride as she rolled out her ma- chine. “I never had a machine be- fore,” she explained. “I just went to the neighbors when I had to sew. So, fully bad. So Frank jest chawed and chawed, and I saved every tag till we got enough, and last year we xot the mechine.
