WASHINGTON, June 21—The Su- preme Court today reversed the Federal Court in New Jersey, which dismissed the Government’s Sherman law and commodities clause suit against the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Rail- road, and the Delaware, Lackawanna Western Coal Co. The Government charged that the con- tract by which the railroad sold its coal lands to the coal company was not a bona-fide transaction and violated both the anti-trust law and commodities clause of the Hepburn rate law. It is the second suit of the Government against the railroad under the commodi- Justice Lamar announced the Court’s unanimous decision and sent the case beck for proceedings. He said that while it had not been proved, it was evident the railroad could at least af- fect the price of coal in New York and so still had an interest in ‘the coal af- fected by its action. The case was re- manded without prejudice to any points which the Government had not yet raised. HIGHEST WATER IN HISTORY KANSAS CITY, Mo., Junc #.—The crest of the Kansas River at Kansas City was reached today when the stream mounted to 24.8 feet, according to an an- nouncement by Weather Observer Con- ner. Unless further heavy rains prevail today all danger of a flood in the west and east bottoms of Kansas City has vassed, Conner said. The river is falling at Topeka, Wamego and at other points in the Kansas Valley. The highest water ever known at Clay Center, Kan., was reported this morning. The Republican River, which already has broken the dikes west of the city, has reached % feet. The crest will be several feet higher. Thousands of acres of lowland are inundated. The Blue River, which has been out of its banks several days, was receding north of Manhattan. There was a slight fall in the Missouri River at St. Jo- seph over night and the reading of the Same stream at Kansas City this morn- ing was 26.9 feet. STRAWBERRIES BRING $294,982 JOPLIN, Mo., June 21.—J. W. Stroud, secretary of the Ozark Fruit Growers’ Association, has completed figures which show that from 21 towns the association has shipped 377 cars of strawberries, for which was received $294,962.94 by the growers, in the season just closed. This constitutes about two-thirds of the total shipments from Southwest Mis- souril, as about one-third of the straw- berry growers are not affiliated with the Ozark Association. ba} The Golfer’s Dream Air like wine, greens like velvet!

The Turkish losses are somewhat low- er, although the Turks now are con- stantly on the offensive and they make bayonet attacks almost every night. “Field Marshal Liman von Sanders, the German commander, is highly op- timistic regarding the outcome of the operations. He declared to the Asso- ciated Press correspondent that not only are the British unable to make progress but they are losing ground daily. “With the British fleet unable to as- sist in the land operations, because of the submarine menace, the British hold on Avi Burnt apparentiy is not as se- cure as it was.“ „ Prince and Princess von Radolin Ban- ished te Estate in Posen. PARIS, June 21.—Prince von Radolin, former German Ambassador to France, and the Princess von Radolin, the Petit Journal says, have not been formally arrested, as was reported from Milan last week, but have been banished to their estate at Jarotschin, Posen, which they are not allowed to leave. From Lemberg Is Said to Have Begun, LONDON, June A. — An exodus of considerable proportions has begun at Lemberg, says the Morning Post's Petro- grad correspondent. Exodus German Report on Gen. Mackensen’s Successes. BERLIN, June 21.—The buletin giver out by the War Office yesterday de- scribed the situation around Lemberg es follows: “The armies of Gen. von Mackensen have taken the Grodek position. Early yesterday morning German troops and the corps of Field Marshal voh Arz com- menced an attack upon strongly in- trenched enémy lines. After stubborn fighting, lasting until afternoon, the enemy trenches, one behind the other, almost along the entire front, extend- ing over a distance of 3% kilometers, 24 miles north of Janow, 11 miles north- west of Lemberg), Bisputa and Obe- dynski and southwest of Rawa Ruska miles northwest of Lember), had been stormed, “In the evening the enemy was thrown back behind the highroad to Zolkiew, north of Lemberg and Rawa Ruska. Under pressure of this defeat, the enemy also is weakened in his com- munication. Between Grodek and the Dniester marshes the. enemy is hard preased by Austro-Hungarian troops. “Between the Dniester marshes and the mouth of the River Stry the enemy has evacuated the southern bank of the Dniester.” _ A of Ceatinues te Galicia. | At the beginning of May Runsiane their further advance over the southern plains appeared to be comparatively easy. The portion of this position along the Carpathian Mountains ran nearly east and west, while the portion to the north ran nearly north and south. This right angle bend in the line gave Ger- man leadership the best opportunity it has had so far to demonstrate whether it is worthy of the faith placed in it. A better place than Cracow, with its splen- did railroad facilities, would be hard to find at which to concentrate the enormous force that was to make the drive. It was near to and directly in front of that part of the Russian north and south line which invited attack. Running to the east and connecting Cracow with Przemysl were ample rail. roads for supplying the driving force during its advance. To the north was the Vistula River, affording a large measure Of protection for the left flank of the advancing Germans. And, final- ly, the drive involved no great risk. If it suc hg results would be de- cisive. If it falled, the German strate- gic situation would be none the worse for the effort. The chances were great- m fayorof success. So great was the Gpportunity that it scarcely could have been improved had the Germans delib- erately led the Russians into the trap. The advance began about May 3. By June 3, Gen. von Mackensen, with the assistance of his Austrian allies, had fought his way for 125 miles eastward of Cracow. The Russians opposed him most stubbornly but unsuccessfully on three successive strong natural lines formed by the Donajec, Wisloka and San rivers. The last of these positions was greatly strengthened by the fortress ef Przemysl, but this also was captured, not by slow siege operations, but by im- petuous assaults extending over some days, which recall the spectacular tak- ing of Antwerp earlier in the war. In the meantime, the extreme eastern wing of the Russian army in Bukowina was gaining victories against the Austrians on the Pruth and Dniester, in an effort to relieve the pressure on the Russian line in the Carpathians and farther to the north. But the Germans did not permit this to divert them from their main purpose, and the Russian east wing finally became involved in the gen- eral defeat and retreated north and east. A united and victorious German and Austrian army is now advancing on Lemberg from west and south. Berlin Admits’ Mimor Reverses in Western Theater of War. _ RPERLIN, June 21.— The official com- munication issued by the War Office today says: “In the western theater: The front to the north of Arras our antagonists rescued themselves chiefly with the fre of artillery. An infantry attack to the north of Souchez was repulsed by us. To the west of Soissons a partial night attack by the French against vur po- sitions to the west of Moulin-Sous-Toui- vent resulted in failure. “On the western border of the Ar- gonne we opened the attack. The Wuei- temburg and the North German land- turm took several lines of .dafense works situated behind each other over a front of two kilometers (a mil» and dne- fifth) and inflicted heavy losses «un. the French during the unsuccessful counter- attack. The prisoners and booty taken in this fighting amounted to six offi- ‘cers and 623 men, three machine guns and three mine throwers.

A British soldier who had been lying wounded for many hours without food, far from the British trenches, was given bread by a Turk. Prisoners who have escaped from the Turks all assert they were well treated.” 18 ARRESTED IN “VALLEY” RAID East St. Louis Police Ordered to Clean Up Former Segregated District.

LONDON, June %.~—The capture of the heights around Mortenero, north of Tolmine, on the eastern side of the upper Isonzo Valley, by the Italiana, is described in a special dispatch to the Chronicle from Turin, “After the Italians had captured the topmost point, 7486 feet high.“ the cor- reapondent says, “they dragged moun- tain guns thither, but their position was endangered by successive reinforcements of the Austrians on the northern ridge, two peaks of which are known locally as Monte Potoce and Monte Kozliak. „At midnight of June 14, in pitch dark- ness, two battalions of Alpinier removed their boots, swathed their feet in linen and armed with rifles, bayonets and hand grenades, began in the silence to scale the perilous and almost perpen- dicular crags of these peaks. “By 2:30 in the merning they had crept, quite unobserved, within three yards of the enemy's trenches. An or- der was whispered around, and with one Special a bound the Alpini leaped over the para- pet, bayonetting the occupants, whe were helpless from surprise, many of them being knocked over with the butts of rifieg and chunks of rock. “Two whole companies of outpests were put out of action almost without noise, and two more companies, which came to relieve them, walked unsus- pectingly into the Alpini and were bay- onetted. Not a shot was fired, but the — were seen coming up on the run. “The Italians kept close and quiet until! the Hungarians had advanced to the slopes just beneath them, when they started a small avalanche of boulders upon them and followed with a volley which scattered them in confusion. “Monte Kosliak was captured Uar fashion by two columns 3 o'clock in the morning and two heights 9 prisoners and two chine guns, with a large ameunt munition, while the Italians counted in — Storm Damages Many Buildings Around St. Louis — Centinued From Pege One. — 3 broke away from its anchorage at Mera- mer Highlands.

The Louisville & Nashville train from Nashville, Tenn., due at 7:4, did not arrive and on account of wire trouble between St. Louis and Evaneville, Ind., where the dispatcher’s office is located, no informa- tion could be obtained about it. There was no report, either, on the Southefn Railway train from Mount Vernon, Ind., due at 10:0. The Missouri, Kansas & Texas train from Sedalia, due at 7:08, was three hours late, and the Texas train of the same system, due at 7:51, was marked to arrive at 9:20.

~ SOME COMPROMISE ost-Dispatch Correspondent Says Forthcoming Answer Is Unlikely. to Be Final Word, but Probably Will} Be in Direction of Finding Compromise. — GUARANTEES F FROM U. S. ARE WANTED Alleged Misuse of Neutral Flags and Attempted Ram- ming of Submarines Causes | Demand for Continuation, of Undersea Warfare. By Karl H. von Wiegand, A Statt Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch and New York World. (Copyright, 1915, by Press Pub. Co.) BERLIN, via The Hague, June 21.— Germany's answer to America’s note is unlikely to be ready to be given to Am- bassador Gerard before the beginning or the middle of next week. That is what I was told today in quarters which habe to do with its preparation. The course for arriving at an amicable understanding ‘acceptable here and sat- isfactory to America is by no means clear yet, nor in smooth water. There are rocks still ahead. It need not be surprising if another period of squalls and stress will have to be weathered, and call for clear heads, calm judg- ment and a steady hand at the helm in both countries to pick out a course that will avoid difficulties for the Govern- ment here and at the same time appease America. The Govérnment appears to be more or less in a quandary. So far as I am able to learn, no decision has yet been arrived at as to what the nature of the answer will be, but I can say that it is unlikely to be Germany's final word, but rather more probably in the direc- tion of finding some compromise. Firm for Submarine War, The press never “played up'“ news about the war more than during the last week. The announcement that Capt. Weddigen, commander of the submarine U29, who, next to Gen. von Hindenburg, was the greatest popular hero, was lost through the misuse of a neutral flac by a British tank steamer, with other insthnoes published yesterday and today of the misuse of neutral flags and at- tempts to ram submarines when they attempted to stop British merchantmen, ‘plainly indicates the military and pop- ular attitude. This attitude toward America’s de- mand is not making the question anv easier for that portion of the Govern- ment which might welcome some com- promise. Count von Reventlow points out that acceptance of any dictation from Amer- “tea placing restrictions on submarine warfare would be laying down a dan- gerous precedent, the consequences of which might be far-reaching in the fu- ture. The National Zeitung, basing its arguments on the alleged violation of international principles by Great Brit- ain in the death of Weddigen and his crew through the misuse of a neutral flag, also calls for no weakening; no concessions” in the submarine war. Following the surprise and relief that President Wilson's note was not in the belligerent tone forecast from London, there has come what is more or less a reaction, which is not wholly unfavor- able to conciliatory measures toward «-merica, but is strongly opposed to any compromise affecting the effectiveness of submarineism against erent Brit- ain, ‘ 4 Gerhard in First 1 Dr. Anton Meyer-Gerhard yesterday had his first conferences with the For- eign Office. It appears that the For- eign Office has not yet had any ex- tended conferences with the marine min- istry on the answer to sident Wil- son's note. This probably will take place within the next few days. How to se- eure the safety of Americans crossing the Atlantic is the question bothering the Foreign Office, the giving up of submarineism is not being considered. Talks I have had with persons close to the Government indicate that all propo- sitions return to one, that the American Government shall report ships on which there are Americans and guarantee that such ships are unarmed and con- tain no arms or munitions or Canadian Consideration of this proposal seems to have gone so far that unofficially it is being discussed whether such 4 proposal should contain the words no ammunition,” no war materials” or no contraband.” . The disposition appears to be to ac- cept President “Wilson's offer to medi- ate with Great Britain regarding the blockade and submariue warfare, but it is doubted whether Germany will make any suggestion to be laid before En- gland, on the ground that Germany has shown her good will and intention by twice having made such suggestions, only to be rejected by Great Britain. AGREEMENT WITH : PERLIN EDITOR SH “AIRMAN WHO WAS KILLED IN A FALL RAJ WARNEFORD ENGLAND TO GIVE Wi WARNEFORD, AIR HERO, A PUBLIC FUNERAL PARIS, June 21.—Arrangements for the funeral service at Versailles for Henry Beach Needham, the American writer, and Lieut. R. A. J. Warneford of the British Royal Navy Flying Corps, who were killed in an aeroplane acci- dent last Thursday, have been cancelled and the bodies have been brought to Paris. Needham's body is being held awaiting instructions from his widow, who is in the United States. Lieut, Warneford’s body will be sent to England tomorrow, where a public funeral, befitting the man who was hailed as a hero for his recent destruc- tion of a Zeppelin airship, will be held. Gens. Gallieni and Gallopin and many other officers of the French army and notable people sent large quantities of flowers to be placed around the coffin containing the bodies of Warneford and Needham. A small aeroplane composed of flowers was laid on Warneford's coffin by the officers and men of the English hospital. justing the * with America. He tuld: Jam convinced that a complete un- derstanding between America and Ger- many is desirable, possible and probable. i believe this, because I am convinced that President Wilson has a sincere de- sire and the honorable will to arrive at an understanding. No sensible person desires with in Germany war, or even bad relations, the great American nation. Since, therefore, both parties have an honest desire to maintain peace and friendship, there must be a way in which both can walk to reach the common goal. “Of course, the Wee be- tween America and Germany must proceed from mutual respect, which, as a matter of fact, they have for one another. However, one undoubtedly rightly may assume that some new proposal will be found which will be suited to the state of war in cer- tain waters. All the less will the gifted American President want to think of wresting from the hands of the German people, which is en- gaged in a hard fight for existence, the best naval weapon it has. He can hardly have thought of such a thing, since it would, of course, be just as little possible for him to take from the other warring Powers their best weapons. But if the expected new note of the United States to England should prove of such a character as is con- jectured in America, and if it should be sent off soon and should bring about certain modifications in En- gland's conduct of war at sea, in that case I can not believe that we could not arrive at a mutual understand- ing regarding the differences now ex- isting between America and Ger- many.” ————— —— Have you infants and children in the family?

June 21.—Frank O’Leary, one of the five Marshall men indicted for the murder here Feb. 3, 1915, of William Black, an anti-Cath- olle lecturer, was acquitted in District Court here today by an instructed vor- dict. The prosecution previously hed sought dismissal of the case on the ground that there was not sufficient evidence to convict O’Leary. The de- fense insisted on a formal acquittal by a jury. O’Leary was not called upon to make a statement. John Copeland, George Ryan, George Tier and Harry Winn are the other men indicted in connection with the killing. The dates of their trials hive not been fixed yet. Black was shot here shortly before he was to deliver a lecture entitled “Romanism a Menace to Civilization.” O’Leary was not present at the shoot- ing, according to testimony at the exam- ining trials last winter. Black’s lecture was advertised by means of hand bills in which he was de- -eribed as one who knows.“ The hand bills contained charges against Catholi- cism and cartoons and alleged oaths of the Knights of Columbus and aroused great feeling. About supper time Black went to his hotel room where he was joined by the other members of his party, Clarence F. Hall of St. Paul, Minn., and Miss Sadie Black, a girl whom Black had adopted at her home in Arkansas a few days previously. Three Marshall men, John Rogers, John Copeland and George Ryan, called on the Black party. According to testimony at the ex- amining trials, all three callers were members of the Knights f Columbus, They asked Black not to deliver his lecture. Black replied he would de- liver it. Black was shot near the heart and killed. Rogers also was killed, and Copeland was shot three times. Several persons rushed through the hotel tow&rd Black's room. O'Leary, a city fireman, asserted he started from the fire engine house near by at the sound of the shooting and ran to the hotel, not knowing what was happening. Indictments were returned by. the grand jury charging murder against the following Marshall ‘men: John Copeland, George Ryan, George Tier, Harry Winn and Frank O'Leary. Pub- lic testimony did not develop the cir- cumstances of the alleged connection of Winn and O’Leary with the kill- ing. Clarence F. Hall of the Black party appeared before two grand juries, but was not indicted. AUNT REGAINS CUSTODY OF SON OF PETER OAKES’ Probate Judge Overrules Action of Guardian in Placing Boy in Another Home. Miss Lottie Brooks. recovered custody cf her nephew, Louis, Peter Oakes, 6 vears old, orphan son of Peter Oakes, candy manufacturer, in the Probate Court today. In overruling the action of the boy’s guardian, William K. Roth. in removing Louis from the aunt’s home a month ago, Judge Holtcamp said that the evidence showed that the aunt had taken good care of the boy and that the change was not necessary. Roth had placed his ward in the home of William Boefer, 2831 Rutger street. The evidence was that Miss Brooks virtually had reared her nephew since the death of his mother, who died when the boy was an infant. The father died bout two years ago. In his will he left $2000 to Miss Brooks in consideration of her devotion to his son. The latter in herited $30,000 and has been getting $8 a month by order of Court for his support. Judge Holtcamp asked Louis whether he had any choice as to where he should five. He said he was well treated in his new home, but preferred to be with his aunt. — — Only Extra Long Wear Conquers Empire REDS Because they’re better made of better rubber Empire REDS are not susceptible to common tire troubles.

The discovery yesterday afternoon of the body of Clifton W. Hess, 28 years old, the bridegroom who disappeared Friday morning after his marriage the evening before to Miss Edith Speers of 5225 Wells avenue: has left the police as mystified as ever over the case. The body was found floating in the Forest Fark lagoon near the boathouse near the Union boulevard entrance. No relative, member of his own family or of his bride’s family and no inti- mate friends has made public any pos- sible clew to the strange affair. His sister, Miss Katherine Hess, who lived with him and their mother at 4737 New comb place, could offer no solution of the mystery. “T have recalled that frequently in the past when we have discussed suicide in the family.“ Miss Hess said, he has remarked that nobody would destroy himself who was in his right mind. Al- though he appeared outwardly calm for his wedding, we who knew him realized that he was greatly excited and suffer- ing from nervous strain.“ Excited During Ceremony. Dr. Grant A. Robbins, pastor of the Union Methodist Church, of which both Hess and his bride were active mem- bers, observed during the ceremony Thursday afternoon that the bridegroom was very much excited. That, how- ever, is not unusual, for many clergy- men have found that the bridegroom is usually more excited at a wedding than the bride. Hess and Miss Speers had been sweethearts for about five years. Thev were both active in the Epworth League of the church, Hess being treasurer of it. After the wedding céremony the pair spent the night at the bride’s home. Hess arose at 6 a. m., telling his wife he was going to run over to his moth- er’s house to tell her good-by. He stopped in the Hess home only a few minutes, no longer than was nec- essary for brief farewells to his mother and sister and to fill a small bag with personal belongings. His sister re- marked that he seemed to be a happy bridegroom as he kissed her good- by. Nobody saw him leave the house, but later the bag was found in a hallway. The next his relatives knew of him was when the body was found yesterday ee ride Is Prostrated. The hele was identified by the Rev. Mr. Robbins and S. L. Dillon, 1459 Ar- Ungton avenue, a brother-inJlaw of the dead man. Hess’ watch had stopped at 8:18. That would about represent the lapse of time, the police say, necessary for the young man to walk from his mother’s home to the lagoon. He fre- quently had visited the lagoon with Miss Speers in their courtship days. The young man’s mother, Mrs. Mar- tha E. Hess, 72 years old, and his bride are both prostrated and deny them- selves to all visitors. SULTAN IS SAID TO BE UNDER CARE OF GERMAN SPECIALIST Prof. Israel Sent From Berlin; Nature of Turkish Ruler’s Illness Not Disclosed. BERLIN, via London, June 21.—Prof. James Adolf Israel, widely known Ger- man specialist, is at the bedside of Sul- tan Mehemed at Constantinople, accord- ing to the Tagesblatt. He was com- missioned by the Turkish embassy here on June 11 to go to Turkey. Prof. Israel is the Sultan’s guest at the Yieldiz Kiosk, where he will remain until the end of next week. The na- jure of the Turkish ruler’s ailment has not been disclosed. City Attorney Drops Case Against “Georgie” Williams Continued From Page One. that she did not respond. Miss Carr’s name was not on the information as a witness. Then he dismissed the case. “I made a very careful inquiry because of Williams’ reputation.“ Garesche told a Post-Dispatch reporter this morning. “When the woman did not appear I was convinced she was an unwilling witness. It is true that I could have issued a subpena for her, but it is doubtful if she would have made a good witness fer the city because she had previously failed to appear.”’ If someone had been injured, Garesche said, he would have insisted on having Miss Barber brought into court to tes- tify. Never Saw Revolver. Garesche was asked if he saw the re- volver, with its three empty shells. Hoe said he did not see it and never had heard of it. Deputy Marshal G. J. Stop- pelworth got it at police headquarters Saturday morning and signed a receipt for it. He gave it to Deputy Marshal Henry Nepper, who handed it to Deputy Marshal Emil Hartman. Hartman is the docket caller in Judge Hogan’s court. He said he might have failed, in the rush of court, to mark on his docket that the court was in pos- session of evidence in the case. Hart- man returned the revolver to Nepper and got a receipt for it. Chief of Police Young, when asked if an effort would be made to reinstate the Williams case, said the disposition of al police cases was in the hands of the City Attorney, who had authority to dis- miss any case. : Chief Young said the police depart- ment could not enforce the attendance of a witness in police court unless or- dered by the City Attorney to do so. He said the City Attorney, in many previous cases where the evidence had been considered insufficient, had taken a continuance in order to strengthen the 1 8 case. BRITAIN'S DEFICIT BECAUSE OF WAR Call for New $1,250,000,000 Loan Recently Authorized, to Be Issued Tonight. made today by Reginalé McKenna, Chancellor of the Exchequer, that the ioan of £250,000,000 (51. 250.000 000) author- ized by the House of Commons last week for war purposes, would be issued to- night. The new loan will be put out at par and will bear 4% per cent interest. Chancellor McKenna’s announcement was made in the House of Commons The Chancellor said the State would have the right to repay the loan at par in 1925, but in any case it must be re- raid in 30 years. The Chancellor emphasized the fact that, in addition to putting forward a business transaction, he wished to ap- peal to the patriotism of the country to “use its gigantic resources to carry on the war successfully for ourselves and cur allies.’’ Holders of both the old war loan and consols will have the right to convert their securities into the new loan. The conversion of consols will be on the basis of £75 of consols for £50 of the new loan. In moving a resolution to authorize he Treasury to borrow th _ requisite money, Chancellor McKenna said: “The time will come when the necegsi- ty of a further loan will become appar- ent, and a prompt decision is required, as it is uhdesirable that a big loan should be kept hanging over the mar- ket.“ The Chancellor stated that the total realized deficit between revenue and ex- penditures up to last Saturday amounted to 518.000, 000 (52, 590, 000, 000). The dailv war expenditure now amounts to nearly 13.000, 000 ($15,000,000) and is still rising. The loan is to be issued in small bonds of from £5 to £25 ($25 to $125) which will be obtainable through the postoffices. “LAUGHING GAS” ESCAPES “laughing gas’’ escaped today in the office of Val H. Fredericks, dentist, on the sixth floor of the Century Bullding, some person with no sense of humor turned in a fire alarm. There was some excuse. The floor was filled with smoke and it did not look like a laughing matter. When the firemen arrived a man who had been affected by the gas said the laugh was on them. Fredericks explained that a rubber tube eonnecting the retort with the laugh- ing gas tank became disconnected and the gas escaped. 6 $9 590.000-000 LONDON. June 21.—Announcement was] When a tankful of what is known as RADE CROSSINGS ARE FIRE MENACE SHINGLEY SAY Tells State Commissioner There Where City Wants Changes Made. Director of Public Safety Swingley, in testifying today before Eugene McQulillin, State Public Service Com- missionr, in regard to the effort of the city to have grade crossings of the Wabash and Rock Island rail roads removed at Maple avenue, Lin- dell, Union and Delmar boulevards, and some other streets, said that in his opinion these grade crossings con- stitute a serious fire menace. Within the district affected by the crossings the director said there are nine fire houses. The men and apparatus are foreed under orders to halt at all railroad crossings at grade whether a train can be seen or not, and this delay, the director said, is a source of considerable danger to property owners. Speed in getting to fires is a vital point with the department,” said the director, “and a delay of even one minute often tecomes a very DOr tal matter.” The hearing was held m Parlor A of the Planters Hotel. President Kin- sey of the Board: of Public Service was questioned regarding the loca- tion of the crossings and asked to state what portions of the surround- ing district form part of the city and which are under control of the county. He said that traffic is heavy at all of these crossings. WHEN FAGGED OUT Take Horsford’s Acid Phosphate Restores the phosphates necessary to re- cuperate overwork body and brain. A healthful tonic.

: ARE F ORMIDABLE F 4 OF ENGLAND AT HOME Trades Organizations Paralyze War Munition Plants at Times—Drastic Action Needed to Curb Convivial Workers, To learn at first hand how England is standing the war pressure, the BY EWAN JUSTICE. Sheffield is a great industrial and manufacturing center and may be regarded as an average English eity. One of the greatest employers of §abor in that district said to the Post-Dispatch that he had made a special investigation of conditions in the district in which he was especially * i He said that drinking had increased perhaps 10 per cent in the distriot, and that it was due largely to the men seeking relaxation from long hours "of overtime and because of the increased wages they were making because Of the war. Drinking, he said, took place mostly on Saturday afternoons and Sua- E. A days among the workmen; on Mondays with the women, many of whom ‘Were wives of soldiers, and on Tuesdays with the mothers of soldiers. It is not unusual to see from 10 to a dozen women in the public houses in the _ district on these two days. From the public houses selected for * observation on a Saturday night in May, es oF the 67 persons turned out at clos- - ins time—9:30 o’clock—23 were drunk—l3 men and 10 women. In addition to this, 2 on “our streets in the neighborhood there ae 2% drunken men, 13 drunken women four drunken soldiers, a total of 63 4 en persons in this district. From aer pubs in neighboring streets 167 persons, 14 of whom were women, were Turned out at closing time! Of these, men were drunk and one woman No condition varies more with locality — occupation than that of drink.

It is not surprising that the war is taken so light-heartedly by pꝛople who Were never 80 prosperous before in their ives. Those who are addicted to drink spend their money in this way. largely in treating one another, because they have the means in their pockets and know of no other way to spend it. Conditions Improved on Clyde. The effect of this is really a hin- drance to the output of munitions. On the Clyde there is direct evidence that at times it has been most serious, but under the pleas of Government offi- cials conditions are much improved. Men in both the Clydeside and Tyne- side districts have been found drunk in the workshops. The pre-eminence of Glasgow and the Clydeside district in drinking is because spirits are the staple drink. Beer is drunk, too, drunk on the Tyne, but in different proportions. Broadly speaking, .the further north the more spirits take precedence over beer, and drunken- ness prevails in proportion.

The workingmen of the Clyde- side and Tyneside need a shock to con- Vince them that a dreadful war is being waged in which individuaal effort must be made. Drastic action of some sort must be taken in the munftiéns areas in order that the drinking minority may be kept from hindering their more pa- triotic brothers. Restriction without being supple- mented with constructive action would de a worse failure than absolute pro- hibition. The suggestion for canteens in the works is the most feasible. They would be appreciated by the men who live at a distance from the factory and would have a beneficial effect on their health and efficiency. The Messrs. Armstrong have built a large dining room for the girls em- | ployed in their plant,’ and it is highly successful. It is managed by a local Women’s Committee. Men who live near enough to their work usually go home to dinner and those living at a distance carry their own dinner, but if they could get it at a canteen at cost prices undoubtedly they would take advantage of it. In any case, they could have freshly cooked food and lighter beverages could be sold. Lost Time a Problem, Lost time, is a vexed question of much importance. In whatever degree it is caused by drink or associated with drink, it will not be cured by any measure dealing with that alone. Work is now cerried 6n continuously in the munitions areas, night and day, seven days a week. Labor is divided into two shifts, averaging 12 hours each, with time off allowed for meals. Usual- ly the day shift is 11 hours and the night shift 13 hours, the shifts ex- changing every other week. Sometimes there is not enough work for particu- lar men to occupy them the whole day, but, on the other hand, overtime is often worked. Men undeniably suffer from the con- stant strain. They are not necessarily exhausted, but get track sore.” Work on the furnaces and rolle, in the forges and foundries, is physically exhaust- ing; in the machine shop it is not. Turning shells is light work. But the length of hours kept up, week after week, becomes intolerable. It has been found by experience that three shifts pay better in continuous work than two shifts because of the freshness of the men. It is not possible to work three shifts in this emergency because of the scarcity of skilled labor. In the case of the girls employed at the armament works in Elswick they originally worked in three snifts, du: at their own request were changed to partly because they could earn more money in two shifts and de- cause the three shifts disturbed domes- tic arrangements. The men must have time off. Em- ployers generally feel that to work the men on Sunday is a mistake. There should be one day of complete rest in every seven. If the men do not get Sunday off they should have some other day. In some yards on the Clyde the ren are given every fourth Sunday off, tut in most of the plants operating on Government contracts the men have no day off. Extraordinarily good time is being kept in Sheffield. The men there have attained some unusually high averages. Some had to their credit 8, 90 and even 1620 hours in a week, but they are ail obliged to take off at least one day a week. The real reason for England's slack- ness in production ‘of munitions of war is not drink or bad timekeeping. It is hecause of the restrictions of trade unions.and the failure of the Govern- ment to properly organize its industries. Trade union restrictions are primarily the cause of the limited supply of mu- nitions of war. These, together with strikes and labor disputes, undoubtedlv have caused more harm to the produc- tion of British plants than drink. 305 Strikes in Nine Months. Statistics prepared by the Labor Bu- reau of the British oBard of Trade show that in the nine months of the war— from August, 1914, to May, 1915—there were 305 strikes in England, affecting 76,124 persons and entailing a loss of 1,514,600 working days. Of the 306 strikes recorded 227 of them were for advances of wages. Of the 905 strikes 1841 of them were in industries engaged in getting out Goverument contracts. The engi- neers or skilled mechanics led the list with 36 strikes in nine months, the transport workers and shipbuilding em- ployes being next with 31 and 8 strikes respectively. In the four months ending April , 1915, increases of $667,000 a week had been granted to employes by employers. During the same period in 1914 30,046 employes suffered a decrease in their weekly wage of $30,000 Until the trade unions remove their restrictions of production, the employ- ing of unskilled, labor and other union rules Engiand’s emergency production will be seriously hampered. Few persons in England have a sound- er knowledge of the liquor problem than Arthur Sherwell, a member of Parliament and secretary of the Temperance Legislation League. J do not censider prohibition in the munitions areas as practicable,” said Mr. Sherwell to the Post-Dispatch cor- respondent “The workmen would not stand for it. 1 anticipate small practical success so long as reforms are opposed by pri- vate interests in the trade, and not until the Temperance party is pre- pared for constructive measures provid- ing efficient counter-attractions to the saloons.

SEARED GAA LOA EOE AED A ROR Das = EON IER GHB “!Sunspots Suspected as Cause of Queer Weather — Christian Brothers College Professors Rec- ords Show That After Recent Disturbances a Batch of Specs Has Appeared. 1 Virtually convicted of monkeying with the static and putting St. Louis wireless telegraph instruments out of business. the spots which have been specking the face of the sun until it looks as though it had the chicken pox, are Strongly suspected of having caused All this mussed up June weather. Brothen Hubert, sunspot expert at Christian Brothers College, admitted yesterday that he had been ‘keeping cases on the sun for several months, und declared that circumstances point strongly to its guilt. His official log“ certainly reveals some striking coinci- Gences. Within a day or two after every recent important weather disturbance the record shows that a new batch of spots has appeared, and within a day or two after the spots have begun to wane in activity, the weather has begun to clear up. The Brother says he has not sufficient scientific data to warrant him in draw- ing up an indictment. But he has his suspicions and he doesn’t care if any- ‘ody knows it. It must be remembered, however, that ine Brother is naturally prejudiced. His rarticular delight and hobby is the wire- ess apparatus at the college. And the sunspots certainly have done their level best to make life unhappy for the wire- less students. They keep shoving the “arth’s magnetic field around in such a wanton and shameless manner that no self-respecting operator could help re- senting it. Scientists are not agreed as to what causes sunspots, but they know beyond question that they cause great magnetic disturbances. When- ever a magnetic wave strikes a gas, it has a tendency to ionize it, and, as the upper stratum of our atmos- phere is supposed to be made up largely of hydrogen—a gas easily lonized—it may be that the effect of the sun’s acticity is to make of it a blanket which is such a splen- did conductor of electricity that it almost ranks with the earth itself for “grounding” purposes. Extraordinary activity on the sur- face of the sun is indicated by the sunspots. It is, naturally reflected in the earth’s magnetic field and that is what causes all the trouble with the wireless. That it might also be responsible for unusual weather conditions is a suggestion Brother Hubert thinks is worth ex- tensive study.

By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, June 21.—Several army and navy aeronautical experts went to Alexandria today to witness the first test of the giant Richardson hydroaeroplane. Naval officers appear to believe that this machine. which was invented by R. 8. Richardson of Low- ell, Mass., embraces features which eventually may go far to revolutionize flying over water. The Lowell machine is the largest hydroaeroplane ever constructed ani several of its features never have been tried out in this country. The arrange- ments of the planes is unique. Virtual- ly all of the hydroaeroplanes now in ‘use have two planes on each side, abovo each other. The Richardson has four planes on each side, placed in sections representing four sets of tandems. Be- tween the planes there is a platform upon which the inventor purposes to build a cabin for passengers. If the theory advanced by the in- ventor is established in practice the machine will be more stable than any now in use, and it will be virtually im- possible to ‘‘rock the boat.’’ The pilot’s seat is directly underneata the front engine and here are the levers and devices that control the ascending and descending planes, as well as the steering gear. Behind the pilot’s seat and between the two engines is a plat- form 6x10 feet, which is the space to be used in carrying passengers or cargo. 8 styles. * NN VAY * PTs yA TRUER | * 1 ah Ae \ Aline ali TATA Striped Voiles |W, GARLAND ——————— 409-1113 Broadway Timely Purchase up to $6.75, Whee alias nne uv 1 J. * . e Ane rt Candy Stripes Dotted Voiles Hairline Mulls Trimming of embroidery, lace, ribbon, girdles, etc. lar ideas, new blouse effects, long or short sleeves, tiered, flounced and ruffled skirts, bordures, bayaderes, etc. Choice, $3.95.

Gelege Just ag the recently completed Inter- scholastic Baseball League season, un- doabtedly surpassed all others, since the formation of the league, in both in- terest stimulated and financial results, the quality of play displayed was well in keeping. The league championship was not decided until the final game of the season. The crowds at all of the games were banner ones. However the usual aftermath—the choosing of an all star team—is now in order. The task is difficult because unusually brilliant quality. Although the McKinley High School nine defeated Central for the title; the mid-city 4eam is awarded as many posi- tions on the mythical aggregation as are the South Siders. Each team re- celves four honors, Yeatman fills one position; while Soldan for the third successive year fails to land a place. Rehagen Star Pitcher. He who attempts to select the classiest pitcher of the “‘prep’’ organization, dur- ing the past season, undoubtably in- vites trouble. There were two twirlers in the league, who were among the best moundmen that have been developed in the -high schools in eons. Rehagen of Central and Menze of McKinley both pitched cleverly. Rehagen is-given the position, because he pitched every game on the Central schedule, winning six and losing three. Menze was not defeated once, but pitched only one-half of the McKinley zames and had a better team behind. Wallace of McKinley and McQuoid of Soldan also pitched cleverly. Schleicher, Rehagen’s battery mate, is given the job of maskman, over Coates of McKinley. It probably was Schleich- hagen the pitcher he proved to be. He also eM an excellent throwing arm ‘and allowed fewer thefts than any other His hitting was a feature of the Central offense. At first base, Fuerborn of McKin- ley draws the assi nment over Shan- ley of Yeatman. Shanley was the in- itial cushion guardian last year, but during the past season he took a de- eided drop in hitting, while his field- ing was not up to the usual standard. Fuerborn led the league in extra base smashes, and also played a sterling defensive game. Best Batter Loses Out. Kamp of Yeatman takes base by right of his round play. Turnbull of also did well at the keystone sack. The novelty of a league batting lead- er not getting a place on the all-star nine is enjoyed“ by Jones of Cen- tral. Jones was a fairly good field- er, but lacked consistency on the de- fense. Regan of McKinley, on the other hand, was the center of the South Siders’ defense, and the fielding sensation of the league. He also hit well. Larmore of Central has the call of the third baseman. He won a name by his opportune hitting, and was no less consistent in his fielding. Lar- more was probably the most improved player in the league over his 1914 form. Conly of McKinley and Wil- liamson of Soldan also did well. An outfield composed of McElwee}: of Central and Menze and W. Coates of McKinley would furnish a set of gardeners satisfactory to any scholas- tic nine. McElwee in center covered a world of ground for the mid-city team, and also furnished a punch to the attack by his faraway slugging. W. Coates was a flawless fielder, and showed a capability to get on base often. Menze, when not itching, drew the right field job, and held it. second ) good, all- McKinley worth came in his hitting, which was probably the strongest on the crimson nine. Whittbread of Central and Leo Shanley of Yeatman are little below the class of this trio. Cards Show More Fighting Spirit This Year Than They Did in 1914 HAT the contributory causes mean to the Cards’ success is entirely a matter of conjecture, but those who have. felt the pulse of the team lately say that something has happened since last fall to tone up the aggressiveness of the club. Artie Butler’s improved short- stopping may have induced this. And then, again, it may be Ham Hyatt's first basing. Or, perhaps, it is Johnny Miller/at second or Betzel on third, but os it what it may, the Cards are fight- hey use their elbows and shoulders a little and this helps. Last season the other fellows had a monopoly on the fight.

PART from the almost unparalleled success of the Cardinals, success which yesterday culminated in the fourth straight win over the world’s champions, the tenth victory in the last 12 games, local fans are interested in the individuals who made it possible. To single out one man and concede of him the major portion of the spoils would de the quintessence of folly.

We wish. to introduce,- ladies and gentlemen, Rob- ert Connery, an tvory hunter. Please stand, Bob, and take a bow. It was Connery; in the quest of ivory in the wilds of the South Atlantic League, who found Lee Meadows, the greatest .bespectacied pitcher in the world. Connery also is to blame forthe presence on the Cardinal club of Bruno Betzel, said by the wisenheimers to be the original Nervy Nat“ of this year’s. crop of recruits. Can you think of.any two better rea- sons why the Cardinals today are in second place, a scant game and one-half removed from the lead, than Meadows and Betzel? . The Case of Meadows. Meadows has just forged the seventh link in a chain of victories that has him anchored in first place among the Na- tional League pitchers. Betzel is in there playing ‘such ball that Zinn Beck, recognized by many this spring as the best third baseman in the circuit, has almost been forgotten.

Fielder Jones. rh TEAM’S STAFF ai ——eEOO EE MEADOWS’ record for the season, which shows seven victories and one defeat, is one that has improved steadily from the start. He was used only as relief’ in April, but he showed uggins enough to start him as a regular in May. His first full game Was on May 2, when he beat the Reds. He was knocked out only once, on June 9, when the Giants made eight hits and eight runs off him in four frames. The Cards came on and won, however, al- though Meadows doesn’t get credit for the victory. Meadows now ee oe league in eo nr + FF ²˙ꝗ -N — ²ẽům-L˙LB '.

ELI CREW’S RECORD BEST Coach Nickalls’ Stalwarts Have A Defeated Pennsylvania, Cor- nell and Princeton. By Albert H. Barclay. Eastern Rewing Authority for the GALES FERRY, Conn., June 21.—When the Yale and Harvard varsity crews go to the starting flags for the big race next Friday afternoon, it. will be, in so far as anyone can forsee, under more equal conditions than have existed at any time in the history of Yale-Harvard rowing. By this it is not meant that there have been no close contests be- tween the Blue and Crimson in this branch of sport in the past. The close oontests of former years, have as a rule not been forecast by con- ditions well known before the race. The history of Yale-Harvard rowing has been for the most part one-sided, by reason of the fact that when one university has been at its best in this sport the other usually has been on the down grade. So long as Bob Cook was at Yale his personality as a coach was the factor that in the great majority of cases de- cided the race. After Cook, Johnny Kennedy was a success at Yale until Wray developed at Cambridge. Then Wray had things his own way untilip Guy Nickals came to Yale in 1914. The present year finds Harvard still with the advantage of a well-defined policy in rowing, which has been de- veloped during the past dozen years, and with the advantage of the material which success brings and good coaching develops. 5 Yale Owns Unique Record. Yale, on the other hand, has been pulled out of a chaotic condition in rowing by a master hand and her crew has already achieved this sea- son that which moe fermer Yale crew has been able to aceomplish—name- ly, to defeat Pennsylvania, Cornell and Princeton before going te New London. Guy Nickals has done this with ad- mittedly inferior material and has had the additional misfortune of losing prac- tically all the first week of training through a careless and inexcusable blun- der in the Yale kitchen which poisoned the varsity and freshman eights. Nev- ertheless, the success of Mr. Nickals in 1914, coupled with the victories of his crew this year, make Yale an equal fa- vorite with Harvard in any forecast of the big race. A good deal has been written this year describing the strokes as taught by Mr. Nickals and Jim Wray. This year Harvard has reached the Thames much further advanced in her work than usual, in that she had her stroke lengthened out before leaving Cambridge. Mr. Nickals attributed this to the ef- fect of the trip of the Harvard second crew to Henley, last July. This is cer- tainly reasonable, because the inevita- ble result of American crews going to England has been that they in some de- gree copied the stroke. There are other reasons for conclud- ing that Harvard was further advanced in her work than usual this year, when she reached Red Top. One of the rea- sons is the fact that Harvard was able 2 defeat Cornell this year for the first me. Certainly in appearance this Harvard crew shows the earmarks of having been selected with the greatest care from a large amount of first-class ma- terial and pushed right through the year in its work in order to be ready for Yale. This is only natural, after Yale's unexpected victory in 1914, It is, therefore, generally conceded that this is a better Harvard crew than the 1914 eight. Likewise Yale is satisfied that she* has what Mr. Nickals has termed a stronger, heav- fer and faster combination than that which represented Yale in the var- sity boat a year ago. This, then, raises the question that supposing there was practically no dif- ference between the Yale and Harvard crews in 1914 except a few feet at the finish, which crew made the greater improvement over last year’s form? Yale Has Improved More. The logical answer to this question would be that it is likely Yale has made the greater improvement because this is Mr. Nickals’ second .year, be- cause he has the advantage of last vear's experience behind him and be. cause he has this year had the united support of both graduates and under- graduates, whereas a year ago he was sishting his battles with a disorganized crce, So far as the material is concerned in the two boats, Harvard has the advan- tage. Wray has always demonstrated his ability as a judge of men and as usual he has had three times as good material to pick from as Yale has. The only thing that saved Yale this year is the wonderful ability of Mr. Nickals as 4 1 — 5 ot men. He has not been able to find as well-rounded a physical ma- chine as Wray, but he has picked men who have brains and power. He has not been able to mould his men into a perfect crew but he has taught them to row well and to get speed out of their boat. Tale men sighed when Jack Apple- top graduated last year for another stroke like him; but Mr, Nickals has produ in Morse & stroke who appar- ently is better than Appleton. It ts impossible for any man to say with any degree of certainty that one ef these big crews is certain to win. If Yale should win it will be due to Mr. Nickals and not to any advantage in the way of terial. If Yale loses there will be no‘one who will not be satisfied that the Blue has got every- thing that it deserves out of the rowing situation that has existed at Yale this year. There is one thing which {s certain, and this is that Yale has raised her opinion of this Harvard crew tre- mendously since Harvard reached the Yale's rowing men have The annual five-mile river ewim of the Western Rowing Club wil] be held July .

Angeles’ ‘Mission Is Peace, Another That He Has Broken With Chief. By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, June 21.—Rumors of. a new peace move by prominent Mexi-. cans with Gen. Felipe Angeles, formerly Villa's military chief as “its moving spirit, held the attention of officials here today. Various reports from the border said Angeles had crossed into the United States but none agreed as to his mission. Border agents of the Govern- ment reported that he was on his way to Boston to visit.his family. One story was that Angeles was to confer with Mexicans who have taken no part in the revolutionary activity but who recently have been planning to form a coalition with some of the forces now in the field to enable them to get the “active moral support which Presi- dent Wilson recently announced the United States would soon give some group unless the warring factions could agree among themselves. Another ex- planation was that Angeles had left Villa because of personal differences with him. The armored cruiser Colorado has ar- rived at Guaymas with marines and reports all quiet in the Yaqui Valley, where Americans had been threatened by the Indians.

By the way, what is an “alliance in sentiment?” Would an authority on international law be able to recognize one of the mysterious things when he saw, it? But after several trial starts of this sort, the professor suddenly shoots off.in a direction in which he lea ves all facts behind. He says: Are we not doing nearly everything we can to help the allies and to hurt the Germans? Could we, if we had an offensive and de- fensive alliance with spines be asked to do more? : Perhaps we might be asked to do a little more than we did at Chicago Saturday when 26 men were arrested on suspicion of having been recruit- ed in this country for the English armies. Of many. totally unreliable and mischievous public statements made by, the professor, this is prob- ably the least excusable and most harmful. If we should reverse his question and ask, Are we not doing nearly everything we can to help Germany and hurt the allies?” less violence would be done to truth. There has been tio such | propaganda in behaif of the allies as American gitizens have conducted in behalf of Germany. The so-called “neutrality” leagues throughout the country whith have sanctified every German mo- tive and wildly applauded every German act, even placing Germany before the United States, have had no counterpart in elaborately organized effort to hely the allies. “Could we, if we had an alliance with England, be asked to do more?“ quoth the professor. Con- sidering that the allies control the sea, the fault- lessness of our néutrality is shown by the fact that the question has more poiut put in this form: “Could we, tf we bad an alliance with Germany, be asked to do more?” With the allies in command of the sea we could have done many things which we have not done for them. But as long as that command continues we could not do mapy more things than we have Gone Yor -Germany. ‘= = 81 eS NO “MORE ITURBIDES. Washington hears the administration favors Gen. Edouard Iturbide, grandson of the Emperor Iturbide, who ruled Mexico for a year in the early ‘s; as “the man to rescue Mexico from her present chaos. We doubt it. The first Iturbide betrayed his countrymen. His grandson is 4 member of the Cientifico party that bled Mexico to desperation, crushed popular liberty and stamped out the pub- lic schoo] system, during the 30-year Diaz despot- ism. He is now an exile. — e GONE TO THE WRONG PLACE. We note with misgivings that an elderly lady reformet of St. Louis has had herself @ year and a day to Leavenworth Prisbi iu oer ent she may study criminology and penology. But the inside of a prison is rather the place to study good behavior. There she will find only intensified morality and the reward of patient. merit. She will find honor systems and prayer meetings and proprieties. She will find the most highly polished conventionality in the world, model decorum and impeccable table manners. The places to study criminology and penology are all outside. If possible our well-meaning lady student should obtain admission to a caucus of municipal bosses, look in on a few of the saloons where the “boys” foregather, attend the directors’ meetitig: of u soulless corporation, take in a few pool roome, breeze up and down Broadway, New York, ‘by lamplight; affect the tango life, smell the cabarets, dine with a couple of lobbyists, cul- tivate some private detectives and read the cur- rent ee and then fumigate herself. ‘= = „ : STANDARD OIL’S GOLD MEDALS. The Standard Oil Co. has been awarded two gold medals by the Panama-Pacific Exposition—one for “conservation of natural resources,“ the other “for its works and policies.” Viewed from the standpoint of cold efficiency alone, the Oil Trust merits these honors. . The’ German army is not more perfectly: ergiiilacd and directed—to get results for its controllers. _ Unfortunately, not all of the Standard’s “works and policies” were exhibited at San Francisco. One would have liked to have the judgment of the jurors upon the relative efficiency of the Rock- efeliers in preventing waste in their refineries, and iu suppressing personal liberty in their Colorado mining camps. Recent events have given mankind the feeling of being rather fed up on mere regimental efficiency. There appears to be a growing demand for less of that and more of the old-fashioned individual t thought, of speech, of opportunity for advancement in industrial fields freed 12» — | trom the smothering control of “benevolent” over- ee have deen battles between submarines .} in the past, the world knows nothing about them.

Slaton’s action accords with the common mind of men which is averse to capital punishment in convictions upon. circum- stantial evidence.. Life imprisonment is an illogical compromise, jfor it is predicated upon the same degree of cer- tainty of proof, and positive conclusion of guilt, that the death sentence was based on. But it is a compromise dictated by considerations of hu- manity and insures the State against an irretriev- able and revolting mistake. The mistake of bury- ing a human being alive is not more repugnant to civilized instincts than the execution of an in- nocent man. Cases of execution upon stronger circumstan- tial evidence than Frank’s case disclosed have in after years been shown to be ghastly blunders. Whether or not time shall clear up the Frank mystery, his guilt was not proved beyond a. rea- sonable doubt in the minds of that great. jury. at large—the reading public. He was saved from death -essentially by the force of public opinion and the American: sense of fair play. = * i i THREE IN SECOND PLACE. For a day at least St. Louis had three baseball clubs iu second place in the three major leagues. The Browns were in the second place from the bottom. 819181 r EDUCATING THE POLITICIANS, There is complaint in some quarters over the fact that politicians controlling state govern- ments are meddling with state universities—using their grip on appropriations: to enforce adoption of their economic views—or rather of the eco- nomic views of the privileged interests which they represent—by university professors who en- tertain contrary opinions. From Arkansas, Colorado, Kansas and Wiscon- sin particularly comes word that the politicians are trying to compel the universities to abandon the theory that the earth is round like a ball, the new-fangled notion that the earth revolves around the sun, etc. , The professors surprise us. We should have thought they would welcome the opportunity to educate the politicians. Somebody, has to do it, and nobody else is in better position to do it than the state university professors. All they need do, whenever the politicians go too far; is to state the facts plainly to the people—and the voters will do the rest. Moreover, there is always the bare chante that the politicians may be right, and the professors wrong, with regard to a few minor propositions in practical political economy. — — = a ~~ Vo JUSTIFIABLE IN ONE CASE. While the Schramms' practice of exacting resig- nations in advance from office holders merits the severest condemnation, it must be admitted that one case can be recalled in which it would have worked with expelient results. That is the case The curtain that fell on little Luxemburg the first week of last August is lifted in the Post- Dispatch account of a visit to the unhappy little Grand Duchess of the country made by her former tutor, Retta Malmburg. These have been agoniz- ing months for the 300,000 humiliated, exploited, starved people of the once proud little principality. Here is a glimpse of the Luxemburg of today: In the Place de la Constitution, the soldiers are receiving their rations. Here and there you observe young children and old men and women, their trembling hands outstretched for a piece of bread. A German orderly comes along with a black whip in his hand. The in- experienced, the young as well arf the feeble: old beggars, are whipped out of range until they are scattered down the avenue. Luxemburg's martyrdom was less bloody than Belgium’s because she had less warning. Before she could organize for resistance, the treaties guaranteeing her neutrality were scraps of paper and her people were under the coercion of the bayonet. = = —r =. FIREWOOD FROM FOREST PARK. It is estimated that 4200 wagonloads of brush and Branches broken from trees in last week’s storm have been collected in Forest Park. When the debris now piled in a huge mound is dry, it is planned to have a big bonfire. In most European cities such a quantity of fire- wood would have large value. At a slight cost in labor it could be converted into fuel to keep many poor families in St. Louis warm next winter. The saving in coal to the Provident Society would pay some part of the expenses of the city’s. Forestry Department. A ES Gea | NOVELIST WELLS’ CRITICISM, ~ The impression that the allies show lack of foresight at critical times and insufficient inttia- tive at all times has had hesitating expression by disinterested observers in this country. At this distance appearances may be deceptive and facilities for an accurate judgment too meager. But it is precisely this view which, one of the most distinguished men of letters in the British Isles, H. G. Wells, makes public in emphatic language. He says the Dardanelles adventure “has been throughout nforeseeing and uninven- tive.” He complains of a lack of correlation and illustrates his point with the aerial service. | Individuals in this service have done most use- ful, even magnificent work, but there has been no energy in organization.

Glaucon: I do. I have always said that while there was perhaps little to say for Taftius as Presi- dent, we did have fine weather. Socrates: Exactly. Since the Democrats have been in, we have had two drouths and one flood. Wilsonus is a fine man, and he no doubt knows more about the theory of government than any President we have had since Jefferson; but he knows nothing about weather. It has been going from bad to worse ever since he got in. You re- member last year? Glaucon: Vividly. ‘And the year before that? 10 Truly. Then there is this year. _Zounds! Glaucon mess. Glaucon: Isn't t it? Socrates: I have often thought about the weather we had when Taftius was President. It seems that the law cf compensation always applies. We had almost nothing to do with the Government, which was run by the trusts; but we did have an equable distribution of moisture, and 1 never knew the seasons to alternate with finer precision. Polemarchus: I . ‘wish Taftius were Presi- dent now. Socrates: I sends wai it, myself last night, when it seemed the world would be washed away. It seems that we cannot have everything at once. If we want *Wilsonus in this particular crisis, and we need a man of his sort badly, we must expect to give up some- thing else.

This will give us a quiet opportunity to think of our duty to the respective St. Louis teams. There is no doubt in the world that we are having a fine lot of baseball in our midst. Two of our teams are running in second place in their leagues, and if the summer keeps cool we should win at least one pennant. A great many ot us have not attended baseball games in a good many years. We got tired of seeing nine men from somewhere else chase nine men from here all over a park. It seemed to the more thoughtful of us that what our teams needed was to have the parks to themselves a while for the purpose of figuring out, without interfer- ence from us, some system of play that would beat the other teams. As a result of that feeling a great many of us quit. We were still conscious of the game, and. sometimes felt like going out; but as a rule we did not, believing that the time must come when we could go back and see a local team win. This was a drastic movement upon the part of the community, and it hurt the clib owners; but year after year the local teams had their opponents pretty much to themselves inside our parks and we felt there could be but one end.to that. It is well known that even a jack rabbit will fight When it is cor- nered. So much fog the plan. What has happened? We have baseball again, One of our teams is not yet ready to invite us back, but the other two are, They have nothing for which to be ashamed. It must therefore be our duty to go out and see the baseball game again. We may like it. One cannot tell. After period of years in such ’ quiet pastimes as golf, one doubtless will find base. ball a little rough; but it is so exciting—or used to be. ,, eT ee We have been waiting—that is all. — THE NEWS FROM HOGWALLOW. —

A threatening demonstration in the City Court of Granite City this forenoon friends of Frank Bauer and George Rauth, on trial for the murder of Alex Ory and George Papp. caused Judge M. X Sullivan to hastily adjourn court and order the courtroom cleared. State’s Attorney James M. Bandy, be- lieving the demonstration was directed against him, called out to the Judge that his life was in danger. He then - gent a call for all the police and deputy sheriffs in Granite City. 2 vw The demonstration, which came near’ being a riot, started during an argu- ment between Bandy and C. C. Ellison and John D. Harris, attorneys for the defense. When the trial was resumed this morning after an adjournment from Saturday on account of Ellison’s iliness, Mrs. Etta Emerson took the stand. She said to have stated out of court that she had been directed in a trance to testify that Bauer and Rauth were innocent and that the men had been killed by another person. On the stand she denied the story of the trance, but said that Ellison and Harris had gone to her last week and told her that if she would testify for the defense they would take good care of her and see that she lost nothing finan- cially. Ellison and Harris wanted to be sworn so that they could deny the woman's statement. Bandy objected. While they were arguing there was a stir among the friends of the defendants in the back of the courtroom, voices were raised and there was a threatening movement for- ward. Bandy called out to Judge Sullivan that he believed his life was in danger and the Judge ordered the jury taken to their room and adjourned court. Po- licemen and deputies later cleared the courtroom. —— — MEE ds BRY 1S ‘NOT DEAD an account yesterday of a $150,000 ha made recently to the Beers Hotel, Grand and Olive streets, the Post-Dis- patch erroneously printed that Louis Bry, former owner of the property, was dead.

Ta OF LIQUOR LAWS PASSED BY STATES THIS YEAR Statutory Prohibition in Two In- stances, Question Submitted to People in Eight. NEW YORK, June 21.—A 3 by the Associated Press of legislative ac- tivity this year in the State lawmaking bodies of the country, most of which have adjourned for the summer, shows that among the subjects which received notable attention was that of the pro- hibition or the regulation of the liquor traffic. The legislatures of two states enacted statutory prohibition, to become effec- tive this year, and eight voted to submit the question of statewide prohibition to a referendum of the people. Of the lat- | licenses to 3 outside of cities and villages. Licensing Officials Elective. The only action taken by the Ohio Legislature was the passage of a law- making state and county liquor. licens- ing officials elective instead of appoint- ive, thus decentrallzing' the licensing system. Massachusetts passed a bill to prevent the shipment of liquor from license to no license communities, but it was vetoed by the Governor. A bill forbidding the use of inclosed booths in restaurants where liquor is sold became a law. California. a local-option State, passed a measure forbidding the sale of liq- $ * 2 Sm — —ͤ —— . . —— their pee or white persons 0 tng with them. The Legislature defeated, | however, a bill creating a mile dry zone around normal schools and uni- versities.

Four states where prohibition is alread# effectivé passed additional re- strictive laws and two of the ve states, where, under constitutional amendment, prohibition is to go into effect next year, enacted necessary statutes for its enforcement. In six of the so-called “wet"’ states, statewide proposals met defeat. In others questions of local * tlon, transportation and licensing acted upon. The two states where direct prohibi- tion laws were passed are Florida and Alabama. Those whose legislatures voted to submit the question to the peo- ple are Idaho, Iowa, Montana, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont and the territory of Alaska. In Iowa the legislative resolution, according to the State Constitution, must be passed by the next succeeding Legislatrre be- fore the people can vote on it, but the State returned to statutory prohibition meanwhile, through the repeal of the so- called mulct law. Idaho was also mad- „dry“ meanwhile through statutory en actment. In Utah the bill was vetoed b the Governor after the Legislature ad- journed. In South Carolina the vote will be taken at the election this year, in Montana. South Dakota, Vermont and Alaska in 1916; Idaho in 1917. It will be thus seen that as a measure of the progress of the cause of prohibi- tion the 15 states already in the ranks have this year been reinforced by four and the legislative way cleared for six others, including Alaska, to join. In the latter event nearly half the country will have placed the ban on the liquor traffic. States Strengthen Present Laws. The four prohibition states which decided to strengthen their present laws were Kansas, North Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia. The Kansas measures approach the unique in prohibition legislation. Two were passed, one providing that the muni- cipality where liquor is sold is lable for damage for injury to persons or property resulting from intoxication. The other, which is aimed at those who permit so-called “keg parties” to be held on their premises, imposes similar liability upon the owner of property where liquor is sold or given away. North Carolina passed shipping act, known there as the “anti-jug” act, which forbids the shipment to and receipt by one one person of more than one quart of spiritous liquors and five gallons of malt beverages every 15 days. Tennessee, where the prohibition laws have not been strictly enforced in the larger cities, it is said, passed an ouster law, modeled after a Kansas statute, which provides for the removal from of- fice of State, county or city officials (other than holders of constitutional of- fices) who fail to enforce the laws of the State. Liquor Barred From Clubs. The Legislature also enacted meas- ures forbidding social and fraternal clubs to dispense liquors or maintain lockers for members; placing the super- visfon of soft drink stands under the Pure Food and Drug Department and forbidding them to sell beverages con- taining more than % per cent alcohol and prohibiting drug stores from selling intoxicants except on bona-fide prescrip- tions given to persons who actually are II. West Virginia enacted amendments to the Yost prohibition law limiting ship- ments of liquor into the State and for- bidding a person to have mquor in a public place even for his own use. Nor hereafter can anyone in West Virginia give a drink to another except in his own home, being specified ag a perma- nent place of residence, not a hotel or other public place. All attempts to revise the prohibition laws of Oklahoma were defeated. In Oregon, where prohibition becomes effective in January next. as the result of previous action by the voters on a constitutional amendment, the Legisla- ture enacted a law to enforce the amend- ment. A law for a similar purpose was en- acted in Colorado, where a prohibition amendment goes into effect the same date. The Legislature of washington “where prohibition: is also effective in January next, ignored Gov. Lister's request for an appropriation of $50.000 to enforce the law. The liquor traffic in Arkansas, having been banned by the previous Legislature with a law which likewise takes effect in January, was not up for considera- tfon this year. Virginia, which goes into the dry“ column in November, 1916, held no legislative session this year.
