This account makes it appear that Dr. Woodsen apologized to the judicia: council of the association for ‘the wrong of advertising,’ and promised not to repeat his offense.

By Leased Wire From the New York ‘Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 7.—With the verifi Cation of the fact that Mra.: Evelyn Thaw is. not to testify againat her hus- band, it is regarded as exceedingly like- ly that Harry Thaw will be set free within a few days. In fact he may be able to start for the Panama-Pacific Ex- position at San Francisco early next week. ~ A body attachment was issued by Justice Hendrick today for Evelyn Thaw. When the court proceedings Opened Dr. Bernard Livingston, Mrs. Thaw’'s physician, was called to the Stand. He said he had found: Mrs. Thaw run down and in a nervous con- dition and advised her’ it would be uns wise for her to testify. Justice Hendrick interrupted the witness and said that if the Attorney-General desired that Mrs. Thaw be present he would ‘igsue hody. attachment. -Beputy — Attorney- General Becker asked.that such an at- tachment be issued. The State’s case actually simmers down now to an expression of opinion by experts and the testimony of Thaw himself. All dependg on Thaw’s ability to withstand such an examination as Deputy Attorneys-General Cook and Becker see fit to put him through. His attitude on the witness stand, too, has only to impress Supreme Court Jus- tice Hendrick as the jury’s verdict in the case is not binding on the Justice; who has the final decision ag to whether Thaw is sane. Sanity at Present In Question. Ostensibly, at least. the presént pro- ceeding is brought to determine whether Tnaw is sane at the present time. To date the State has not produced one sin- gie witness wiio fertiffed as 16 his con- dition now or in the recent past. * Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, supended in the Adirondacks, came to this city yester- day, bought a new hat and returned to the camp in the Adirondacks owned by her dancing partner, Jack Clifford, at 9:% o'clock last night. She will not appear as a witness against her hus- band, Harry Thaw, in the trial of the latter's sanity now in progréss before Justice Hendrick and a jury, she said. Why She Was Not Called to Stand. It develeped that while hére Mrs. Thaw had a conference with Deputy At- terney-General Cook, who is in charge of the State’s case against Thaw. Mrs. Thaw said afterward that Cook had de- cided that she had no new testimony of value to give. ANTHONY COMSTOCK KEEPS JOB * WASHINGTON, July Comstock of the New York Society fur the Suppression of Vice has not lost his job as postoffice inspector, accord - ing to a statement made today ‘by’ Chief because of friction with officials in New York. © It was learned that Comstock recently visited this city and had @ conference “| with Postmaster-Generai.

Morgan, the wireless crackled a Warning over the Atlantie, telling of hie threat té blow up’ a ship and thé mystery of his Wife was cleared away with his positive {dentification ‘as Erich Muenter, the alleged Wife murderer, who fled from Harvard University in 1906. Nothing more dramatic in the last few crowded days of Holt’s life has come to light than’ the’ warning ‘of destruction ‘that was uncovered aftér his death. His confession that he placed the bomb in the Capitol‘at Washington last Friday, his attempted assassination of Morgan, the growing belief that he was Muenter, alléged murderer of his wife, culminat- ing today in his positive identification— in death—as Muenter and his sensational suicide by leaping 18, feet from the top of ‘his cell to the floor formed a series of events to which the threatened de- struction of the Philadelphia or the Saxonia fitted as a startling climax. The powerful] wireless stations of the Navy Department were enlisted in the efforts ‘to prevent the thregtened dis- aster at gea. In answer to the warning there was received today a messgge from the captain of the Philadelphia which said that everything abodrd had been identified and that all was well. The Saxonija had not replied. Her fall- ure to do so was attributed to the weakness @f her wireless batteries. Holt advised his wife tn a letter which was received by her at Dallas. Tex., on or before yesterday of his plan to blow up a ship. .This Jetter, Police Commis- sioner Woods of the New York City Po- lice Department announced today was taken by Mrs. Holt and her father to a lawyer, who communicated with Maj. Pullman, head of the Washington (Dr C.) police force, and Maj. Pullman at énce' transmitted the information to the United States Navy Department and po- lice headquarters here. The text of Holt’'s letter telegraphed to the Navy Departnient was ‘as fol- lows: “A gteamer leaving New York for Liverpool should sink, God willing, on the 7th. It ts the Philadelphia or the Saxony (€ax- onia), but I am not quite sure, as these left on the second or third” On the margin of the letter “was written: “Tear this off until etter this | bappens.” Letter Sent to the Vesegelis. The substance of Heit's letter was sent- by radio to the commanders of the two vessels, as well qs the de- partment’s report that it had been unable to verify that explosives had been put aboard one ship or the other. Other transatlantic liners left New York about the same time and navy officials expect that they also would’ pick up the message and make investigations. The vague na- ture of Holt's message made it possi- ble, officials thought, that some steamer other than those he named, | POSCe m eo GO ttn, Rigi PF ag Fe a we ' Saxonia and Philadelphia to steer to- ward each other. Later thé American Line received a wiréless message from the captain of the steamship Philadelphia saying that evé & aboard had. been identified and that a!l was well. Saxonia Is Four Days Out. “The failure of the Saxonia to reply was not regarded as of especial sigs nificance as it was thought that she might have passed out of the wireless zone of commuynication. She is now four days out and it was said it might be difficult for her to have a wireless message rélayed to shore. The Saxonia has 3% passengers aboard, of wHom 115 are in the cabins. The Philadelphia has aboard 611. Of these 26 were in the first cabin, 26 in the second and 300 in the stee At both the American and Cunard offices it was said that it would be practically tmpossible for anyone to pass the many lines of guards at the piers and to place explosives aboard the ships. The Cunard Line stated that there were six lines of guards protects ing its vessels from intruders. The fact that a letter had been writ- ten by Morgan's assassin, presumably prior to his attempt on Morgafi's life, was known to the police at 9 o'clock yesterday morning, but noe public an- nouncement wes mede of it until today. The’first word of his letter came from Glencove. Its contents were divulged by a@ man who hed talked with Holt in his cell for a long time yesterday. This man refused to permit the use of his name, but, because of his standing, there was no doubt as to the authen- ticity of his assertions. The authorities of Nassau County joined the New York City detectives today in a painstaking search for 3 pounds of dynamite known to have been delivered to and unaccounted for by Holt. The trunk foupd liast night in « storage room ebove a livery stable and garage in West Thirty-eighth street, conteined 134 sticks (67 pounds), out of 300 sticks of dynamite known to have been shipped to and received by Holt ander the alias of C. Hendricks, a: Syosset, L. I... recently. Three sticks were used, according to Holt's state- iment, jn making the bomb placed in the Capitol at Washington, and three others were found in @ suit¢ase and‘on the lawn of J. P. Morgan's estate. This would leave @ sticks, or # pounds, of the explosive unaccounted for. » District Attorney Smith of Nesseu County said detectives connected with his office had discovered today that there hed been a few explosions in the woods near Central Park, L. 1. where Holt made his temporary headquarters.

Scarcely had the guard gone 20 feet around the corner of the tier when he heard a noise and ran to the cell door and looked in. The prisoner was not there. Then he looked over the railing that surrounds the tier walk to the con- crete walk of the floor below. There he saw Holt’s body lying on the floor. He was found to be dead, his skull fractured. A search of the cell later revealed a letter written in lead pencil upon a sheet of manila paper, unaddressed, vut apparently intended for his wife and relatives in Dallas, Tex.

Gould of Chicago University that he had identified Frank Holt as Erich Muenter, the following facts have been discovered: The police description of Muen- ter after his disappearance in 1906 was that he was about 35 years old, 5 feet 9 inches tall, weighed about 150 pounds, was of florid complex- ion, dark brown eyes with slightly inflamed lids, dark hair, thin face, slanting forehead, good teeth, walked as if somewhat loose- jointed, was soft of voice and Slightly slurred the English “r.’’ Holt was described as 45 to 48 years old, 5 feet 10 inches, weighing 150 pounds, long, thin face, slanting forehead, dark brown hair, good teeth, walked as if somewhat loose- jointed and spoke in a soft, culti- vated voice. Loren C.

British Exports Decrease. The amount of goods exported from Great Britain in the first five months of 1915 is $731,869,000, a decrease of $317,- 278,000 when compared with the first five months of 1914, before the war began. The re-exports from Britain show a de- cline of $41,610,000 In the same period. The imports, however, have increased $173, 264,000. Two-thirds of this increase in imports represents food, drink and tobacco. The items of wheat, grain and flour alone amounted to $39,500,000 more than in.the same period in 1914, not counting other cereals. Cotton amounted to $13,322,000 more, and wool to $12,062,000 more. The increases were in things urgently needed for provisioning and clothing the British army, and they were the very things which the British blockade has been excluding from Germany. The bulk of these supplies come from the Chicago Educator Says He Identified Holt as Prof. Muenter. CHICAGO, July 7.—Positive identifica- tion of Frank Hoh, the assailant of J. P, Morgan, as Prof. Erich Muenter, the missing Harvard professor, Who was al- ‘leged to have murdered his wife, is -made by Prof. Chester H. Gould of the University of Chicago. Prof. Gould, in a statement made pub- aah today, admitted that he had identified ienter, who was a former student at the University of Chicago, while at Cornell. University last November. He " sala he decided for several reasons not “tO expose the man, as he seemed to be “getting along nicely and “I thought it ‘was better tc let well enough alone.”’ ~ Prof. Gould's statement in part fol- lows: “When I arrived at Cornell Univer- sity Iast November to engage in re- gearch work I was introduced to Dr. Frank Holt, but paid little attention to him at that time.

A little bungalow on the outskirts of Central Park, a secluded hamlet six miles from Syosset, and about 12 miles from Glencove, is where Holt, under the pseudonym of Totten, conducted his ex- periments. He left there on the morn- ing of Friday, July 2. That night the capitol was dynamited. and the next morning the financier was attacked. Constable McCahill examined the place last evening and the interior re- vealed that it had been used as a bomb factory, or at least as an experimental laboratory for the making of bombs.

NEW DETAILS OF. | GERMAN REPLY ee Tentative Draft of Some Sec- tions Contains a Proposal of Compromise on Subma- rine Warfare, Against Which America Has Com- plained. WILLINGNESS SHOWN TO MAKE CHANGES Fact That Provisions Were Submitted to Ambassador Gerard in Advance Is Con- sidered Encouraging in Of- ficial Circles. -" WASHINGTON, July gages from Ambassador Gerard were today transmitted to President Wilson at Cornish, N: H., outlining the point of view of the German Government on Submarine warfare, as embodied in a tentative draft of the German reply to the last American note. The dispatches tended to show that Germany is anxious to bring about a compromise on the question of her sub- marine campaign and there were indi- cations in official quarters that the proposals in their present form are not acceptable to the United States. Much encouragement is being drawn from the fact that a tentative draft of the note was submitted to the Amer- ican Ambassador. This, it was believed, indicated that if the preliminary draft was not satisfactory changes might be made, designed to meet the American point of view on submarine warfare. 7.—Further mes- Four Proposals Made by Germany. Those portions of the German note which were received here appeared to be prepared as the basis for a com- promise between the two governments on questions involved in the submarine warfare campaign. It is understood that Germany's note as forecast in yesterday’s extracts, will present these four proposals to the United States Government: A repetition of Germany's request that the President use his good offices with Great Britain for the purpose of inducing the allies to give up their present program of starving out thea German people. If Great Britain con- sents to give up this starvation pro- gram Germany will end the submarine warfare and thereby all questions at issue will be solved. If the United States will keep Amer- ican citizens off ships carrying contra- band, Germany will not attack vessels carrying American citizens. If Great Britain will disarm all mer- chant and freight vessels and will com- pel the masters of these vessels to heed the warning of German commanders, the vessels will not be fired upon or torpedoed until the crew and passen- gers are safely in the boats. American Inspection Proposed. The establishment of a system of cer- tification whereby the United States will inspect all vessels leaving American ports and will advise Germany which are subject to destruction as carriers of contraband and which are not subject to attack. Official Washington is convinced ab- Folutely that Great Britain will never give up the starvation policy. Exclud.- ing the other advantages which Great Britain hopes eventually to gain from this system they point to the fact that ruch a step on the part of Great Britain would tend to heal the breach which ‘een Berlin and Wash. itain, they insisted, is is breach as wide as as long ‘as the present war ington. anxious to keep possible, lasts. In all the German correspondence the T'resident has maintained a single posi- tion in relation to the rights of mer- chant vessels and noncombatants on the high seas. If he accepted the German suggestions he would be compelled to shift his position, officials say. In his note of Feb. 10, protesting against Germany's plan of destroying merchant vessels in her prescribed war zone, the President said: “It is, of course, not necessary to re- mind the German Government that the sole right of a belligerent in dealing with neutral vessels on the hich sens is limited to visit and search.” Warned by President. In the same note he stated: “If such a deplorable situation should arise (re- ferring to the destruction of an Amer- ican vessel and lives) the imperial Ger- man Government can readily appreciate that the Government of the United States would be constrained to hold the imperial German Government to a strict accountability for such acts of their naval authorities and to take any steps it might be necessary to safeguard American lives and American property and to secure to American citizens the full enjoyment of the rights on the high seas.”’ In the first Lusitania note of May 13 the President took the position that it is the duty of naval commanders to protect the lives of passengers § and crews and that no circumstances can be used as an abridgement of the rights of noncombatants. He again said that the American Government ‘‘must hold the German Government to a strict ac- countability for any infringement of these rights, intentional or accidental,” and added: “Mantfestly submarines cannot be used against merchantmen, as the last few weeks have shown, without an inevit- able violation of many sacred principles of justice and humanity.” 23 his. second note on the Lusitania the President did not demand that Ger- me@ny cease her submarine warfare en- thely, but he reaffirmed his declaration that the lives of neutrals must be safe- guarded and insisted that the old rule of ‘visit and search" is the only rule recognized by fustice and humanity, The message from Mr. Gerard. was ecmewhat garbled in transmission.

RECENTLY WAS DIVORCED Nephew of Financier Used Gas, Acid and a Razor to Kill Him- self in Apartment. Friends today explained the self-in- flicted death of William R. Scullin, 34 years old and a lawyer, who killed him- self last night in Paul Dillon’s apart- ment, 18 North Taylor avenue, as the result of despair over his disabled con- dition. Both his legs were cut off above the knee by a freight train on the Levee, 17 years ago, and he had feit the loss increasingly as he grew older. He was in the immense crowd gathered to see the gunboat Nashville when the train backed into him. His closest acquaintances did not be- lieve that the divorce lately obtained by Scullin’s wife was the cause of his act, but rather tnat the divorce an! the suicide were due to the same cause —his -continued despondency over his Physical condition. He was able to move about w'th. artificial legs an‘ canes, but this was slow and painful, and he often said he could not carry such a burden to old age. Scullin’s despondency, his _ friends knew, had caused him to drink heavily, and to gamble. Most of the $20,000 which he obtained as damages for the loss of his legs is said to have been lost by him at the card table. Scullin was the son of James Scullin of 1231 Hamilton avenue, formerly City Marshal, and tne nephew of John Scul- lin, millionaire steel manufacturer and railroad builder. He had been staying in Dillon’s apartment during the sum- mer absence of Dillon’s family. Dillon, returning to the apartment about 8:30 p. m., found the windows closed, and gas ecaping from several jets. Inside, he found Scullin’s body, with a carbolic acid bottle and a razor near. The contents of the bottle had been swallowed, and the razor had been used by Scullin in slashing his wrists. The accident which changed the cou:se of Scullin’s life occurred when he was a student. He recovered $20,000 from a railroad company for the loss of hie legs, and he studied law diligently, op- taining admission to the bar when he was 21. In 19% he sought the Demo- cratic nomiration for Congress in the Twelfth District, but was defeated by Colin M. Selph, now Postmaster. He was counsel for labor unions, and repre- sented these bodies in several strikes and in coirt procedure growing out of them. He was married in 1906 to Miss Jose- rhine Salorgne, and they had two chil- dren, Josephine, now 5 years old. and Richard, 4. His wifd sued for divorce last winter, chargin, desertion and non- support. She obtetme the decree in March, with the custaby ot the chil- dren, and lives with thom -\t 6561 Clem- ens avenue. Randolph Scullin, who was sta‘’ing with his brother at the Dillon apart- ment, said Willlam Scullin often spoke of the handicap placed on him by the loss of his legs, an? the pain of using artificial legs.

DEFENDS DEATH PENALTY Priest Criticises Modern Jails With Marble Baths and Turkey Dinners. The Rev. Father Victor Stepka, pastor of St. Joseph’s Catholic Church at Clay- ton, who for weeks has been the spirit- ual adviser of William Sprouse, has re- fused to sign a petition asking that Sprouse’s death sentence bo commuted tu life imprisonment. Sprouse will be hanged at Clayton July 16, for wife murder, unless Gov. Major intervenes. The priest todav, when seen by a Fost-Dispatch reporter, said his refusal to sign a petition, presented to him by tormer State Senator B. L. Matthews, did not mean that he was assuming to pass upon thé guilt or innocence of the condemned man. “If Sprouse is innocent, he should be at liberty,’’ Father Stepka said. ‘If he is guilty, he should ge hanged.”’ Father Stepka said he believed in cap- ital punishment for two reasons: first, it is a State law and asa citizen he was bound to uphold the law; second, there vas the old Mosiac law, found in che Bible, which stated that if a man took a life. his life, in turn, should be taken. Doesn’t Believe in Serving- Turke;. “It is laughable to think of how our reformers are providing modern fails, with marble baths, fina recreation srounds and other comforts for crimi- nals, comforts which many law-abiding citizens do not hav:2,’’ Father Stepka said. “I do not believe in dungeons, but I don't believe in serving turkey and giving entertainments as a forn of punishment.” Every Tuesday Father Stepka visits the condemned prisoner at the Clayton jail. Yesterday, he said, Sprouse still maintained he was innocent. He said Sprouse insisted that he did not have an opportunity to present the testimony f Illinoisans, as he did not have funds to pay their expenses to come to Mis- sour! to testify at his trial. This, it is telieved, is one of the grounds upon which petitioners will ask Gov. Major to commute Sprouse’s sentence. Sprouse was convicted solely on circum- stantial evidence. 1500 Have Signed Petition. The petitions have been signed by 1500 persons, Mrs. Serge L. Halman of Webs- ter Groves, one of the leaders in the inovement in Sprouse’s behalf, hopes to have 2000 signatures before the petitions are sent to Gov. Major. Both Mrs. Halman and Paul Bakewell Sr., a lawyer, have called upon Father Stepka to learn what Sprouse has said about his innocence or guilt. The priest tcld them he could not disclose what Sprouse had told him in the confes- s:onal. Publicly Sprouse had maintained his innocense. Mrs. Halman does not believe in cap- ital punishment. “Society’s Cruel Revenge.” “It is soctety’s cruel revenge,’ she said. ‘‘It is the law that dips the finger in human blood to write in violation of the commandment, ‘Thou shalt not kill,” and it is that impious law which makes mankind lose its faith in hu- manity, when it strikes the culpable and causes one to doubt God when it smites: the innocent.”’ Mrs. Halman has been denied admit- tance to the Clayton Jail since Sprouse has been under death sentence. For- merly she visited the jail each Sunday and conducted services for the prison- ers. She is a singer and has taken much interest in the prisoners and their fam- ilies. Sprouse’s Father Dies at 82 From Grief Over Son's Fate, MOUNT VERNON, Ill., July Elisha Sprouse, 82 years old, dled a few days ago on a farm near Kell, in Marion County, after grieving over the fate of his favorite son, William Sprouse, who is under sentence to be hanged for wife murder at Clay- ton, Mo., July 16. He had been taken to the farm owned by his daughter, in the hope that he would forget his son’s troubles. The elder Sprouse, with his wife, attended the murder trial at Clayton and since has spent all his time dis- cussing the evidence and insisting his son was innocent. His other son, John, is serving a term in the Ches- ter penitentlary for dynamiting a house near Mount Vernon in an effort to kill his divorced wife. Domestic troubles, which wrecked the lives of his two sons, played no part i=in Elisha Sprouse’s career, for he had lived happily with his wife for more than 50 years. He was a Civil War veteran. = $12.50—Niagara Falls—$12.50 And return. July 17th, via Clover Leat Route. 211 North &th St. y Zu ZU to your grocer man —and get a spicy, gingery feast. F uture of the Indicated m First Year Events Great War as ee American Ammunition Big Factor. Copyright, 1915, by by a blunder has continued as a the reduction the forts without in little more than casualty lists. Yet it is fair to say that the Darda- nelles expedition did contribute largely to enlisting Italy, it has had an enor- mous effect upon Bulgaria, and seems t» have brought Greece almost to the point of casting her lot with the foes of Ger many. An Italian expedition to Gal- lipolil, now discussed, would only ac- centuate this situation and the entrance of Bulgaria would close the history of the Osmanli in Europe. In thinking of the Dardanelles operation it is natural to recall the Sebastopol campaign, which was along failure ending in complete success. If the all‘es have as yet made no real progress toward the capture of Constan- tinople, they have recalled Turkisn troops from the Caucasus and Egypt, and have shaken the Balkan fabric t) its foundation, and the slightest pros- pect of actual victory must inevitabiv enlist new allies and threaten not Tur- key, but Austria. It is well to recall, too, that th: Constantinople campaiga ‘s only a side issue for the allies, but for the Turk it is a matter of life and death, and for Austria it is almost as import- ant as the Galicia campaign. Too Much Was Expected of Italy. As to the Italian operations, preset disappointment of partisans of the allies rests chietl:: upon undue expectation. Austria hoids the gates to Northern Italy. She bas spent years and millions in fortifying them. Until these fortifi- cations, flanked by mighty “mountains and protected by Alpine torrents, are reduced, Italy can do little. Against them she rust throw her main forces, because unless these gates are taken shv has to fear an eventual German ertp- tion wholly similar to that which has just cleared Galicia. Venice, Verona, even Milan, the whole Po Valley, may be swept by a new drive if Italian effort does not block the Adiga gateway. On the other hand, the entrance of Italy has been the great factor In the war since the German drive to Paris broke down. More and more the pressure of a fresh million of men upon a new frontier w:ll demand German and Atts- trian attention. Ammunition, men, ar- tillery will be recalled from the Eas: and the West to defend the South. Six months from now the Italian influence will be felt appreciably, whether Italian forces are then fighting in Flanders or Carniolu. Again, Italy’s extrance puts the destiny of the Mediterannean into the hands of the allies. The prizes the gmaller nations of Eastern Europe ‘tong for are now within the gift of the anti- German alliance. To Rumania, Greece and Bulgeria only money can be given wy Germany end Austria, but to Greece anJl Bulgaria tue anti-German alliance can give portions of the Turk’s estate. Germany’s Two Hopes of Winning. It is well, then, in taking an account of stock at this time to avoid attach- ing too great importance to the incidents of the month or even the year. We shall do well to accept as the basis of all our computation the fact that German victory can only be achieved after one of two things happens—if Germany suc- ceeds in obtaining a complete decision over one of her foes, or if one or more of the nations allied against her grows weary or makes a separate peace. Twice Germany has sought a decision in the East. Both times she has failed The Russian military power has not Leen crushed or eliminated. Mer effortg at the Marne and in Flanders were equally unsuccessful. France was not disposed of, suffered Itncidenttal defeats mnd came back when German offense siackened and Germany had to turn cest. So we may expect Russia to come back if German effort Going back to the Civil War, it will be recalled that Lee twice sought a decision while Confederate prospects were atill favorable. Both times he penetrated into hostile soil, both times he won incidental successes. But he could not destroy the army of the Potomac at Antietam or at Gettysburg. and to win he had to destroy the army: al! occupation of territory else was of no avall. In 1814, in the campaign in France, Napoleon defeated the sev- eral invading armies one after another. But he failed to destroy them. When he turned from one to another the teaten army rallied and returned. Prospect for Continuance of War. As the last month of the first year opens, then, it is clear Germany has nowhere achieved a decision over any enemy, and nowhere seems to have a decision within her grasp. As for any evidence of weariness on the part of her foes, not even the Germans claim this, and the coming in of Italy shows what the Italian statesmen who risked dessert.

To undertake the aid of land forces and depending It proved, too, The naval attack ended The their nation’s fortune on the throw actually thought. But a complete decision or a separate peace must be obtained or Germany will ultimately be beaten, not in one year, perhaps, not in five. This is a question of arithmetic, of men, money, ammunl- tion. Twice—once before Paris, once about Lodz—decision was within Ger- many’s grasp, but she missed it; she seems to have missed a third time in Galicia and in the meantime acquired a new enemy; instead of decision elimi- nating one great Power, she has had to face a diplomatic defeat, bringing in a fourth great Power. Napoleon and Frederick the Great both faced great coalitions’ possessing better armies and themselves superior Generals, but with resources and num- ber against them. Napoleon succumbed to the last coalition because he could not obtain a decision against one nor make terms with one. Frederick was saved in the hour of deadliest peril be- caused the death of a Russian sovereign removed Russia from the battle line of his foes. The South, in the Civil War, against great odds, won victories that prolonged the contest, but they could not win a decisive victory. Thus, in the end, numbers and resources told. In all three cases the lesson is the same. We Americans will also do well in judging German official and public opin- ion to remember that with some justice Germans believe that American ammu- nition is contributing to prevent the at- taining of the decision. Ultimately France, Great Britain and Russia will be able to distance Germany and Aus- tria in the production of ammunition. But thanks to her foresight, Germany had the advantage at the start, still retains it. By this advantage she plainly hoped to obtain a decision. But if American ammunition bridges the gap, keeps the allies supplied until they have mobilized their industry, then, in a sense, American ammunition has saved the allies. More than this, later, when Germany begins to feel the shortage of men, she will have to keep many thousands in the factories to make ammunition, while the American production will re- lease French and British, Russian and Italian soldiers to work in the trenches. Unquestionably, the Germans have cried out long in advance of real injury. The amount of American ammunition act- ually exported as yet amounts to noth- ing, but unless the export is prevented it may be a deciding factor a year or two hence, and Germany thinks in terms of the future.

The members of the Efficiency Board have made up the list of questions to be answered by the applicants. One of the first to file notice of his intention to take the examination was Henry lL. (Hank) Weeke, Re- publican City Committeeman for the Eighteenth Ward. Tom L. Johnson, former hotel inspector, also has en- tered the contest. Among the others who have filled out application blanks are J. E. John- son of 4630 McMillan avenue, an in- spector in the building department; Patrick H. Clark of 3205 Park ave- nue, former Sheriff; Michael Lang of 2236 Olive street; Robert Walker, 523 Market street, former Justice of the Peace; Caspar J. Wolff, former faliler, and John M. McCulley, a newspaper reporter. The salary of the city jailer is $1500 a year. In addition he is given an apartment in the jail to live in, with provisions for himself and fam- ily. City Jailer Troll, who has just tendered his resignation, to become effective Aug. 1, also filed for the examination, but later withdrew. The principal reason, he said, ig that his family has to walk through two iron doors to reach the jaitler’s quarters, and it makes them feel as if they were living in jail. “ACTOIDS” ACT ACTIVELY.

Leahy Says. John S. Leahy, one of the principal attorneys in the receivership of the Internationa! Fire Assurance and the Continental Life Insurance companies, Promoted by Harry B. Gardner, gave reasons this morning why the five years of the receivership has not .seen a distribution of the assets among the stockholders. A motion for an order of court for the distribution has been filed and it has been disclosed that vari- ous attorneys, referees and commis- sioners have drawn $60,000 in fees. According to Leahy the assets include approximately $600,000 in notes and some $60,000 to $65,000 In cash. The notes for the most part were given with cash in subscriptions for stock. 75 te 100 Suits Prosecuted. Receiver Matt G. Reynolds, Leahy said, in settling the affairs of the twin companies has prosecuted between i165 and 10 lawsuits, some of which are pending. One suit for $90,000 against the Third National Bank, is now before Jo- seph Zumbalen as referee; the evidence is all in anc a report is expected sooa. Other suits, one for $15,000, one for $10,.- 000 and one for $40 have gone to the higher court on appeal. In addition there Is a suit in which the receiver obtained a judgment for $113,000 against Harry B. Gardner. Gard- ner filed a counter claim of $130,000 and has appeaied. “Buppose,’’ said Leahy, ‘“‘we should distribute the assete and then gup- pose the Supreme Corrt found againet us in the Gardner case on appeal and gave him judgment for $130,000. We do not think that likely, but if it aid happen and the assets were already distributed, Receiver Keynolds would be responsibie for the amount on his bond.”’ Ex s to Pay 60 Per nt, If the receivership is Pose in all of its suits, the assets of the twin com-~- panies will amount to somewhere near $800,000, Leahy said, and this would be distributed among the stockholders. As things stand, the receiver expects to be able to give the stockholders © per cent of their investment. In taking charge of the notes, Leahy says he thinks the receiver has ef- fected a great saving to the stockholders, as they are being converted into cash as rapidly as possible. They have been kept #0 that their value may be re- turnable to the makers in part, at least, when the final distribution is made. In Leahy'’s opinion, the $60,000 paid out.in fees has not been excessive. Ags things now stand he declares it repre sents an expense of only 8% per cent tu protect the interests of the stockholders through a vast amount of necessary liti- gation. “It is the firat case of the kind on the books,”’ he said, “‘where a receivership has been put through, the assest pre- rerved and the company wound up.” All fees had been allowed by the. Court, Leahy declared, after a hearing in which evidence was submitted and disinterest>d experts had testified as t» what would be a reasonable charge fn each case. — THREATENING LETTER TO WOMAN The police and postoffice inspectors are trying to find the sender of a threatening letter received by Miss Emily Feltes, who lives with her moth- er, Mrs. Mary Stremmel, 8 years old, at 820 North Market street. The letter declared Miss Feltes had been making complaints of Sunday law violations by saloons in the neighborhood and of the smoke from a factory near her home; that her house had been saved from burning three years ago, but if she didn’t quit making complaints it would be burned down. Capt. Hanna of the North Market Street Police Station says his office has no records of any such complaints by Miss Feltes. The police think the letter may have been sent by some erank in the neighborhood. The Well-Dressed Men Bee non Olive street are making their way to success.

NORTHERN FRANCE, June 14.— So far as the actual operations are concerned, war holds no place for the elderly man. More than ever, per- haps, actual fighting is the business of youth. A British officer, slightly wounded and returning to the line, was talking on that subject the other day. “I am 386,” he said, “and I have al- ways exercised and tried to keep my- self fit. But I know I'm not standing it as I would have five or 10 years ago, say. The strain and the hard- ship in the trenches tell on a man, and his weakest point goes bad. it was digestion, in my case. Even be- fore I was hit there were several days in which I was not of much use to the army. Then there is rheumatism. which begins to get almost all the men who are subject to it between 36 and 40. They’ve raised the age limit for line troops to 40. In my opinion they will get little use out of the extra men they enlist by that method. Fighting age is the athletic age.” It happens that not all of war is the fighting in the trenches. There is work, stiff work, to do behind the lines in supplying those hordes which make up modern armies, in providing them with munitions, in getting out the wounded. That is work for intelligence as well as muscle; that is work which an earnest middle-aged man may do without en- dangering a company or a batallion by his physical stiffness due to advancing years, and that is where the middle- aged men, among the world wanderers, the lost legions of England, come ‘in. Which is one reason why this British base, so far behind the line that we can hear the cannon only when the wind is very favorable, has become one of the most interesting places in all Europe. World Wanderers. Those wandering Englishmen of the upper class—one who lives on the out- skirts of the world need not travel far to know the type. We had them by the hundreds on the range in the Western States in the old days when cow punch- ing was really cow punching. They were in the Klondike with the earliest rush. They were among the first who ever broke into the unknown country about the headwaters of the Amazon. They ride the bush in Australia and the veldt in South Africa. And when the war broke they came with one accord to the defense of England and the greater ad- venture under the guns. In the early days of the war I met them on all my ocean crossings hurrying home in the hope of a commission, but ready, if the commission failed, to shoulder a musket with the ‘‘Duke’s sons, cook’s sons,” who make up the rank and file of the new British armies. At least the younger ones. There were those grown stiff in the legs and griz- zied in the hair to whom none would give a commission or a musket. Yet they couldn’t keep out of it, of course. One by one the men of this class found work, according to their capabilities and training, in these activities which have to do with supplying and feeding and renewing an army. They put on the khaki, and without fuss or parade they buckled down to a routine of hard work which would tax the powers of any man of their years. It fian’t etiquette to mention names, and, besides, the censor doesn’t per- mit; but there is one whom I shall cal! Smith-Jones. He happens to be very rich, and yachting is his hobby. His yachting is practical; he loves to take the tiller himself. And he has raceil and cruised in all the seven seas. He knows New York harbor as well as he knows Southampton, and the New York Yacht Club as well as the Royal Yacht Club. His permanent or impermanent home is a chateau in France, now be- come a hospital, and he talks perfect French, which adds a premium to the service# of any Britis. officer in this war. ; It happens that he has spent most of his working life in the business of rail- roads—his is a great ‘‘transportation’’ ‘family. So now he wears khaki with the three stars on the sleeve which des- ignates him as a captain, and he is helping to keep that network of rail- roads which run between base and line from tangling and stopping. Brown-Robinson and the Initials. Then there is Brown-Robinson. He is perhaps 55. He is quite stout also, in spite of an active life, and inclines tuo baldness. Brown-Robinson ought to be Irish, what with his wit, but he is, as a matter of fact, blue-blooded English. When the war came he was somewhere in South America, where he was prob- cbly preparing to mingle in another rev- olution. There is no age limit in South American troubles. Now he is a T. C. O., which means transport commanding officer. As such he has charge, supreme charge, of a train. He may be gone four or five days toward the line, during which he works his brain like a Wall street broker and his body like a longshoreman, and sleeps in what the army calls a ‘flea bag.’ There follow two or three days during then he is off again. I suppose that, like all raconteurs, he touches up his best stories; it seems impossibie that so many ridiculous things could come wun- his latest: The special officiale in the British army, and also the service corps of the British army, are cursed with clumsy of- ficial designations. If the army stopped to pronounce them all in full there would be no time left for fighting. Sv they fell back upon initials. The Royal Army Medical Corps becomes the R. A. M. C., the Army Service Corps, the A. 8. C., and so on. Now it appears that a bewildered civilian showed up the other - o the Tommies; but I understand that if you would drop in unexpectedly you would find him upstairs, like as not, dining with the officers and surgeons. After all, artificial rank can be carried only so far. Blind Example of Courage. Kinally, there is the most nobly pa- thetic case of all. When I first saw him he came suddenly into sight from a door- way, clad in full Highland uniform, even to the sporran at the belt. I re inember catching my breath—he was such an extraordinary figure of a man. He stood a full six feet two, and it was Six feet two of muscle and sinew at that. He was broad-chested and yet lithe, with that athletic litheness of your fit Englishman. He had a fine face, strong and clean-cut and spiritually clean, too. And over it all was that kind light which comes into human faces only from affliction nobly borne. For both eyelids were closed—sunk down into the eye sockets. He was stone blind. They told me about him later. As a Captain,in the Boer war, he won the Victoria Cross, but during that feat of arms he’ took a rifle bullet straight through the temples. It cut both optic nerves. But he has gone ahead with his life. When the war broke he asked for something to do. He had learned to run the typewriter by the touch system, and so they put him to writing letters for the wounded. “Though that isn’t his main use,” said the great surgeon who told me about day at a railroad. He had business there—something to do with army sup- plies—but his papers were irregular and the army intelligence men arrested him and took him before their chief. “Yes,’’ said the chief, “I am the C. I. O. I suppose you are all right, but you must straighten out your papers. See the A. P. M.. You will find him on the ground floor of the R. A. M. C. headquarters—next office to the C. M. O.

Also he brings us always the latest news from a curious social situation at one of the railroads. He and two offi- cers are associated, as they have been by a quirk of fate associated ever since the retreat from Mons. One has charge of transportation and the other is a military functionary with police pow- ers over the soldiers and civilians of the district. Both are extremely efficient officers. When men are so closely asso- ciated through hard and adventurous times, they end either by becoming bos- om friends or bitter enemies. In this case the thing hag gone the wrong way.

CHICAGO, July 7.—“Get a million new members and $1,000,000 for missions,’’ is the slogan of the twenty-seventh Inter- national Christian Endeavor conywention which opened here today. The call for millions was the theme cf an address which was to have been read by the Rev. Francis E. Clark, president and founde: of the society. He was un- able to be present, however, because of illness. Delegates were urged to enroll a mil- lion new members, a million signers to a peace petition and a million pledges to make the country a saloonless nation by 1920. Selection of the next convention city and election of officers was the chief business before the delegates today. ‘Christian Endeavor is stronger today than ever before in its history,” said Lehman. “China is facing the greatest epiritual awakening she has ever known. In India, Korea, Africa; in every mis- sion field, we find that there is a new and growing interest in religion. Africa has the largest Christian Endeavor So- ciety in the world.”’ Daniel A. Poling, superintendent of the Temperance and Citizenship Department of the society, said in the course of his report to the trustees: ‘We are fully persuaded that the At- lantic City resolution, ‘a saloonless na- tion by 1920,’ now the unanimously adopted fighting slogan of the temper- ance forces, will become a fact of his- tory. The next 10 years of this de- partmi@at: should, we believe, be more positively constructive than the preced- ing two. “In the direction of temperance and rrohibition we would recommend con- tinued activity along the channels al- ready opened. We would specifically recommend the continued promotion of by four girls of the South Side. They organized a ‘“‘show’’ at the home oz Catherine Kennedy, 1222 South Eight- ecnth street, the features of which were singing, recitations and comic sketches all of their own devising. The amvunt realized was $2.35. These little girls were Catherine Kennedy of the South Cighteenth strect address; Lillian Wise, 1915 Park avenue; Sophia Nennert, 1224 South ighteenth street, and Elsie Ho- fer, 1919 Park avenue. Seven smal! boys and girls huve or- ganized themselves into the ‘‘Four Leaf Clover Club,”’ the better to help poor bahies. On the afternoons and evenings of July 14, 15 and 16 they will hold a bazar on Heil’s tennis court, 3111 Allen avenue. Several features of striking in- terest ar@ being arranged, including a “fish pond,’’ ice créam and other re- freshment stands. These children have been among the supporters of the Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund for: several years, and promise that this year will witness their greatest achievement in the raising of money.

Welsbach Company Gets Highest Award at Panama-Pacific Exposition, A dispatch from San Francisco an- nounces the award of the Grand Prize— the highest honor within the gift of the Exposition—to the Welsbach Company of Gloucester, New Jersey, for their en- tire exhibit of gas mantles and lighting appliances. According to the schedule of prizes, the Grand Prize is awarded only to exhibits considered 100 points ex- cellent—or perfect. The Welsbach dis- play is in the form of a bungalow, di- vided into several rooms, in which the principles of correct artificial lighting are exemplified The distinctive excellence of the new types of Welsbach lamps is due large- ly to the recently developed Welsbach kinetic principle of burner, construction.

There is no novelty in the excite attention. For it is with the aid of German pris- oners that French soil is being prepared for the harvest. Thousands upon thou- sands of them, all through the country, are helping to make up the deficit in agricultural labor caused by the ab- sence of hundreds of thousands of French farmers and their employes. Of course the prisoners of war are not sufficiently numerous—just how numer- ous they are is a very closely guarded military secret—to fill the places ‘eft vacant on the farms. Besides their la- bor, there are the women and children, the workers at industries wnich have been closed down by the war, and a goodly cohort of soldiers of the terri- torial and reserve of territorial forces granted leave for vaying peiods so that, they may till their fields. Women Accustomed to Work, If the farmers of the United States were called to the colors as the French have been, American agriculture woald suffer far more severely than that of France, because women and children always have been accustomed to work on the land in France. A French farm- er’s wife and daughters wouldn’t wun- derstand their American sisters’ min- ner of living. To them it would appear aristocratic luxury. Permission to territorials and reserve territorials—men whose duties do not take them into the firing line—to return to their homes, if these be in country districts, was authorized by the Minis- ter of War a few days ago. The aver- age leave that may be obtained is 15 days, but in special cases a longer pe- riod is granted. The corvalescent wounded also may help in the fields if they so desire, and such is the inherent industry of the Frenchmen that these war victiins, without being asked to do it, are vol- qjunteering for this purpose all over the country. Just outside Tours I saw a soldier with a brand-new wooden leg hoeing a potato patch. He told me his leg had been amputated two morths be- fore and that he had had to remain ‘dle for quite a while because of the diffi- culty oO; 4 Mom a wooden leg. Finished as Soldier : “Of course I’m finished as a soldier,"’ he remarked cherfullyy, “but I can still get along very well among my pota- toes.’ While there is no re uler system of vacations for the troops in the trencnes, leave is occasionally given a man who has done particularly good work. For instance, if one is mentioned in the or- der of the day, one has a good chance of getting half a month’s holiday. Farmer-soldiers almost invariably de- vote a reward of this kind to laboring on their land. Being pre-eminently a country of small holdings, France is full of peasants who take the keenest personal interest in their own acres. Their sense of proprietorship is such that in some instances they have re- fused to permit German prisoners to work their soil in their absence, on the ground that the mere presence of the Boches might prove a baneful influ- ence. I was assured by the officer un- der whose guidance I inspected the prison camp in Tours that this feeling was general even among those who asked for prisoner labor. Well Supplied With Grain. The most important agricultura] move recently undertaken by the French Government undoubtedly is the seizure of grain. Superficially this act would seem to duplicate that decreed in Ger- many last February, but in reality it is wholly different. While the 1914 crop was excellent, the loss due to the invasion of 10 departments in the north and the difficulties of harvesting created a total shortage of wheat of about 970,000 tons. : All but 20,000 tons of this was made up by importations, the United States treaking all records in furntshing 500,000 tons. The customs duties on wheat, flour, bread, oats, barley in grain, beans and-lentils were suppressed in the first weeks of the war, and as the Argentine Government long ago removed its em- bargo on the exportation of wheat, irance is taking advantage of the bump- ead Argentine crop. The imports of flour alone jumped up 14-fold in the first six months of war—from 6000 tons for the same period in 1913 to 88,000. Of this amount 23,000 tons came from the United States. Thus, the French seigure of grain ts not directed against economic disaster or starvation as that of Germany is. It is rather financial in character, being designed to prevent speculation, regulate distribution and, consequently, prevent a rise in the price of bread. In conversation with M. Le Bour- don, Prefect of the Indre-et-Loire De- partment, of which Tours is the capital. » learned that in the firat four months of this year France actually exportec £9,000 tons of wheat as against 80 tons in 1914. The explanation is that Switzer. land had to call on France for wheat and the French supply was sufficient t. respond to the call. Without this aid, of which the genera! public is quite unaware, Switzerlard would have faced a most critical short age of food. The imports of wheat from the United States to France in the same period were about 400,000 tons, as arzainsr ubout 60,000 tons in the same period in 1914. This 400,000 is in addition to the half a million tons brought in during the last half of 1914. I asked the Prefect a question I had | The Pust-Dispatch to answer the question, ; printing @ series of articles by a trained observer sent to examine condt- change in the life of France, the wonderful cheeriness with hich he) people are meeting the tremendous task and ifs manifold sacrifices, are being told in interesting detail by a man who has lived with the people of France during peace and war and who has seen the change come. By Lincoln Eyre. TOURS, June 24.—A long file of German soldiers has just passed my hotel, returning from work in the fields outside this city. French territorials with fixed bayonets surround them as they march. street urchins have ceased to assault the captured enemy with cries vi ‘*Dirty Boches,’’ or words to that effect. As a spectacle, this somewhdt gloomy procession has long failed tv But as a factor of greatest economic significance it is always keenly interesting to the French. | grain “How About France?” is New York World. The remarkable The prisoners gaze dis: the townsfolk display the same in situation for either element, and ev: y previously asked several other agricul tura] authorities, viz.: What effect the possible entry of the United States into the war would have upon the wheat situation in France. His reply tallied with that of my other informants. I* was, that the effect would not be great, beeause the store of wheat on hand is ample and the approaching harvest promises to be a good one. Crop Area Not Much Reduced. There are no accurate statistics as to whether or how much the area of production will be reduced this summer, but certainly the reduction will not be great. Scanning the fields from the windows of a train or close at hand, one finds few evidences of any falling off either in the number of acres under cultivation or the ef- ficiency of the work done. _Apart from the absence of young men, particularly marked in small com- munities, a characteristic French vil- lage would seem to have altered very little in 10 months of war. The roads may not be quite so good, although they are not by any means being permitted to go to rack and ruin, and there will be less activity in the trading on the mar- ket place. Housewives will purchase meat sparingly, and a good pullet will be a rare sight. The increased cost of chicken, curiously enough, is due to la- bor shortage rather than fowl scarcity. Raising chickens requires too much in- dividuality to make it much of a war- time industry. Vineyards to Yield Well. The vineyards of France, equally im- portant with her grain, will yield as much as ever, but the difficulty will be in disposing of the vintage at a profit. That is the way the situation in the wine trade was summed up for me at Bordea'x by M. Daniel Guestier, presi- dent of the Chamber of Commerce in that city and one of the biggest wine merchants in the world. He also ex- pressed the opinion that the vintage of 1914, which with stocks on hand totaled 1,600,000, 000 gallons—500,000,000 gallons above that of 1913—will in turn be ex- ceeded oy that of 1915. ‘‘While our rate of production remains normal, our sales are only about 580 per cent normal,’’ M. Guestier observed. “There was trouble at first in finding enough sulphur for the vines and fer- tilizer, but this has been overcome and so have labor obstacles. We have im- rorted a great deal of good labor from Moroceo. Then, the people’s give-and- take spirit is marvelous. If I have two horses and temporarily need four, I bor- row two from my neighbor, and when he is short I repay by lending him mine. Thus, we get along quite well, so far as harvesting is concerned. Wine Markets Lost. “It’s another story about disposing of cur wine stocks, hewever. Germany took 33 1-3 per cent of our exports and England and your country another 4 per cent. Well, Germany is cut off for a long time to come, the consumption in Izngland has decreased enormously in the last few months and the prohibition movement in the United States, plus - cere LT aad FARMER'S WIFE 100 ILL TO WORK A Weak, Nervous Sufferer Restored to Health by Ly- dia E.

For a time it seemed as if even our British ally was going to in- clease our difficulties, but, fortunately, the British Government has seen fit to drop its proposed heavy taxation of wines. “You see, it costs money to keep wine your temperance advocates stored while you are waiting to sell it. insurance, etc., are very considerable.

O’Connor. -It must be Branch Rickey’s hunch that the Cardinals will win the pennant this season, thereby crabbing the an- wal fall frolic with the Browns. Branch hesn’t said as much in so many words, but he tipped his mitt yesterday when he released *Harry Hoch to Syracuge. Hoch’s job ig to pitch against the Cardinals. And he was rounding to nicely, tapering off his work so as to be at top speed on Oct. 4, but Branch has given him the gate and now the Browns have nobody but Weilman, Ham- ilton, Lowdermilk and James to use in the Cardinal series. However, the Browns are not bibbling about this year’s schedule, any more. They're preparing for 1916, thereby lead- i all other alleged smart teams by getting a head-start for the next season. Almost every year the Browns start preparing for the subsequent season sooner than anybody else. That's be- cause the Browns back away from the pennant pace quicker. However, this is ood baseball. It must be because Mr. Fredges’ team does it every season. The White Sox appeared here Monday a little track sore. They had lost three straight to the Tigers and the Browns went out Monday and grabbed off a pair of games, games that sizzied and ho _ with good plays. Prospects were brig t for a local winning streak. The White Sox seemed in for a good trounc- ing, as they were due for a slump. "But what happened yesterday? You'd never guess in 10,000 years. No use trying. Just lend us an ear: Perryman Lost His Key. Rickey sent Key Perryman to the hill, thereby crossing everybody in the park, including Perryman. Rickey sent Key out there, but he couldn't lock him on the hill. So Key didn’t stay long. Only long enough to let Jacques Fournier lift one into the bleachers for a home run. Then Key came back where he belonged—on the bench. But that served to get the Browns off wrohg. They were rivht Monday and still right Tuesday until the first inning. After that they were all wrong, Garibaldi, all wrong. And if there’s one man more guilty than another. it's B. Wesley Rickey. His excuse for sending Perryman to the hurling hill is, perforce, too elaborate to find space here. ou know lawyers are prone to be verbose. Rickey’s a lawyer. But let's never assume that Perryman is a pitcher; nor the Browns a winning bal! ciun. However, they're preparing for next sea- son—and just as they do every year on July 1. Can there be smarter tactics? There were college players galore in evi- dence yesterday. Ernest Koob of Yplisanti (Mich.)

His Standing. Welsh in the ring merely to A crafty old ring fox, Welsh is too clever to be hit vitally while in possesion of his strength and men- tality. As it stands now, it is doubt- ful if anybody will be able to put the finishing touches to Welsh inside of 25 rounds, or some pe- riod of sufficient duration to seriously sap his speed, strength and mental poise. Because Welsh and _ others have adopted the “safety first’’ methods referred to, the 10-round decisionless bout of today has come to be a joke. But, of itself, it is all right. It is the fighters themselves who have put it “in wrong.” Let any two men get together and extend themselves aggressively for 10 rounds and it is probable that in 75 per cent of the cases a decisive result will have been attained. But fighters of today are al- together too cautious and lack- ing in fighting pride and pride. In the Good Old Days. It was not so in other times. As told a few days ago, many championship fights have teen fought and won in less than 10 rounds, among them some of the famous battles of history. Gans beat Erne in a round; McGovern defeated Palmer in a round; Young Corbett stopped McGovern in a couple of rounds; Kid Williams beat Coulon in three rounds: Harry Forbes beat Danny Dougherty in three rounds; and so or, indefinitely. These fights ended this way, in a ma- jority of cases, not on flukes, but be- cause the battlers were both aggressive 000 for C. White, HAT Charley White failed to knock out Freddie Welsh need not be held against his reputation for possessing a good-night punch. With stay the 10-round limit, at all costs, there was a real chance for the Chicago Hebrew to land a sleep-producer on a vital portion of the Briton’s anatomy. and willing to meet each other half- Way Dcubtless had Welsh seen fit to fight. instead of clinch and play it safe, a fin- ish would have resulted at Brighton Beach Saturday, for Mr. Anchowitz— White is only his war name—had the Welshman hunting cover more than once during the contest. The unfortunate part of it is there ig no way to stop Welsh from holding up the world with this ftmitation fight stuff, ex- cept to boycott him. He de- serves this, for he is tieing up a title that probably does not be- long to him, and copping all the change as a “champion,” in the meanwhile. Let’s Have Decisions. The New York boxing law is an accessory to this crime, since it puts an embargo on Official decisions as fights. The “no-decibion” feature is perfectly innocuous. It stops no betting, because the wagerers sim- ply agree to leave the verdict to some third party and go ahead risk- ing their coin as formerly. If the referee were empowered to hand down a decision, Welsh and other stallers would have to fight to retain their honors. The no-decision fight at Brighton Beach’ surely robbed White of a de- served title. The only way he can now get one will be to meet Welsh in a 20-round contest in some local- ity permitting decisions. After his recent experience, Welsh will probably raise his schedule for 20-round bouts from $15,000 to $25,- ~~ a — eee Oe ee ee ee 10 Days, After Jack Coombs, the former ‘“‘iron man” of the Athletics, who has been pitching good ball for the Superbas this season. will be out of the game for possibly 10 days, owing to a strained ligament in his right leg received while twirling against the Braves yesterday. With two out in the fourth, Coombs stepped into a hole and was forced to retire. Coombs, though, was not the only player injured during the thrilling double bill in which the Superbas took both ends, 3—2 and 4—3. Dick Rudolph sprained his knee dodging a throw to second; Moran was hit on the left ankle and forced to quit: Schmidt retired after being hit on the right arm by two wild pitches, while Gowdy also was forced to leave the battle after hurting his throw- ing arm. Wilbur Good, Cub outfielder, spiked Ivan Olson sifding into third base in the seventh inning of the second clash between the Reds and Bruinga Olson became peeved and took a punch at Good. The pair mixed until Um- pire Quigley grabbed Olson and carried him to the bench. Both players were banished. The Cubs won the first clash, 5—4, while the second ended in a 2—2 draw. A T—@ defeat at the hands of the Tigers yesterday shoved the [ndians down to last piace.’ Walker and Harstad, who did the flinging for Fohl’s outfit, were wild and in- effective. St. Louis Boat Turns Turtle in Hannibal Race “Mark Twain’’ Goes Down While Fighting for Lead in Feature Event. HANNIBAL, Mo., July 7.—St. Louis lost its last chance to-score in the Mis- sissippi Valley Power Boat Association's regatta here yesterday, when “Mark Twain,” a %-footer, turned tur- tle and sank while battling for the lead. Driver Walter Beauvais and his mecha- niclan, George Gaston, were picked up by other contestants and neither suf- fered any injury. Beauvais explained that his boat was caught in a wave at the turn and went down. The event, a 20-mile free-for-all, was won by the Buffalo Enquirer. Time, 86m. 2%.

The Phillies clouted Rube Marquard for 12 bingles in a little more than seven innings. but scored only one run. This came in the first of the eighth, when Cravath clouted out a home run.

The two clubs have bat- tled 16 times, each winning eight. Gri- ner also twirled high-class ball yester- day, allowing only five safeties. Miller Huggins’ charges had their bat- ting eyes in good shape, but could not bunch their hits# In a little more than three innings against McQuillan, the Cards punched out eight hits, but count- ed only one fally, this coming in the first. Butler and Huggins singled, but Bescher hit into a double play. Mil- ~ 1 a aesitaain with a hit and Butler tal- lied. The lone count off Griner came in the sixth, when Carey singled, Collins sacrificed and Baird tore off a triple. After the clash, Huggins and his ag- gregation moved on to Boston, where tomorrow they will open their Eastern invasion. The little leader has high hopes that his tossers will make a clean- up of the series. When the Cards and Braves met the last time at Robison Field, Huggins’ men captured straight. Braves Badly Crippled. When the Cards hit the Hub City they will run into a crippled band of world’s champions. Four of Stallings’ players were forced to retire in the double bill with the Superbas yester- day on account of injuries. They were Dick Rudolph, First Baseman Schmidt, Hank Gowdy and Herb Moran. Probablv the worst injured of the lot was Rudolph, He~= sprained his knee dodging a throw to second base. It probably will be several days be- fore he is able to take up his place on the hill. Gowdy was forced to quit with a sore arm, which means that Whaling will do the catching. Moran and Schmidt were hit’ by pitched balls, and probably will be in the lineup tomorrow. ronars| F TABU NATIONAL LEAGUE. Games TEAMS. » Pet. Win. Lose.

The dope seems just as strong FOR them, this year, as it appeared AGAINST them last season. — “As usual, Dope will get it right where it lives, probably. So it’s me for the trenches.” + o a An Unfair Practice. [ELDER JONES and Ernie Johnson were suspended for the run-in with the umpires at Kansas City. Perhaps they deserved the setback. But in any case there’s a practice prevailing in baseball that is entire- ly un-American, becnuse it involves the presumption that a man is guilty before he has a hearing. It goes fur- ther and imposes sentence on the al- leged offender before he opens his head in explanation. The complaint of an league president of certain acts on the part of a’ baseball player will result in suspension by the league officials without a hearing being granted the alleged offender. This makes the umpire right in all cases and admits of no defense by the ballplaver. From what we know of umpires— but there. Let it go at that. It is enough that no man ought to be set down financially or otherwise with- out having a sayso. “Suspension pending investiza- tion” is still a suspension, It is unjust to club and player alike. The Players’ Fraternity has sought to have this condition modified without result. That it is wrong doesn’t take the optical equipment of Cerberus to detect. « — 4+ College Titles Clear.

It is to these qualities and to the personal strength of the Yale timber that credit is due, not to the “English stroke.’ For over at Pennsylvania Vivian Nickals, brother of Guy, is handling the Pennsy crew and using the same system as employed at Yale, without succéss. The results have not been forth- coming, although the British coach at Penn has had several vears in which to get his ideas working.

- JONES AGREES TO REMAIN IN CHARGE OF THE TERRIERS ~. Phil Ball, Sauer. of the Club, Announces He ‘ Has Persuaded Team’s Suspended Leader to Continue as Manager. FTER a four-hour conference today with Owner P. DeC. Ball, Man- A noon for Pittsburg in command of his club. Federal League did not attend the conference. After their session, Jones again 8e- cluded himself and left Ball to do the talking. Ball limited his conversation, first announcing through his stenog- rapher that Jones had reconsidered his determination to quit. Ball then issued this signed statement: I am very glad to say that Mr. Fielder Jones has reconsidered his resignation and will stay with the St. Louis club and try and bring the flag to town. PHIL DeC. BALL. Whether Jones’ return was condi- tional cannot be learned. It also is a question when his indefinite sus- ension will be lifted. Neither he or all would discuss this phase of the case. Later in the day Mr. Ball was seen by the Post-Dispatch but he refused to throw any light on the matter. “T succeeded after much persuasion in getting Fielder to stay with the team,” said Ball, “and fT think it’s a good day’s work. I believe we have a ager Fielder A. Jones of the St. Louis Federal League club withdrew his resignation and announced his intention of departing this after- President James Gilmore of the pennant with ® good chance for the ready to Jones as manager and I’m fight for him at all times.” The Terriers departed this after- noon for Pittsburg for a three-game series with Rebel Oakes’ pennant pre- tenders, returning here Sunday for a single game before opening a long stand against the Eastern enemy. The Pittsburg series almost ig as im- portant as the Kansas City clash, just finished. The Terriers won three of, their last five fZames from. the Packers, holding a scant lead over Stovall's men. Jones will be badly needed to handle his men in the Pittsburg series. Close triends of Fielder Jones were not surprised at his decision to re- turn. One man who knows the “Build- er of Champions” intimately, says that while Jones was sincere in his intentions of quitting, he: soon was won over when he realized in what a yredicament the St. Louis club would e left if he resigned. His antipa- thy for the mean intent of the ineffi- cient umpires was neutralized by his loyalty to his employers. ; SE S wa out it. B.V.D.Closed Crotch Union Suits (Pat.

T00 STRONG FUR RIVAL, AL THOMAS Rugged St. Louis Lightweight Batters His Opponent in Six-Round Feature. By Harry S. Sharpe. Heferce for Future City A. C. and the Post-Dispatch’s Boxing Authority. Regardless of a very small attend- ance, Tommy Sullivan put on his boxing show at the Future City Athletic Club last night and afforded those present some entertainment. The show was something in the nature , Of a tournament for local boxers, and none but those who live in St. Louis had been engaged to participate in the five bouts that were scheduled. When it Came time to start the entertainment several of those who were to appear failed to present themselves, and it was necessary for Sullivan to hastily secure substitutes. This he succeeded in doing and managed to put on two four-round bouts and three of six rounds each. Rugged Kelly Batters Thomas. Paddy. Kelly and Al Thomas appeared in the main event, and Kelly literally battered his way to the winning post in six rounds. Thomas had the boxing sci- ence, but Kelly wouldn’t let him use it. Kelly just lowered his head and walked wath both hands going, regardless of ainas punches, and then pummeled Le : i, Harry Sharpe’s Decisions ADDY KELLY vs. Al Thomas, six rounds at 126 pounds.— Kelly the winner on points. “Young” Jimmy Foley vs. Georgie Witt, six rounds, at 116 pounds.— Foley the winner; Witt forced to quit by accident to leg in fourth round. ; “Young Leach Cross’’ vs. Arthur (‘‘Battling’’) Smith, six rounds at 122 pounds.—Cross the winner on points. Joe Sontag vs. Harry (‘‘Kid'’) Paul, four rounds at 122 pounds.— Sontag the winner; Paul quit in first round. Jack Rainey vs. Jimmy Turner, four “rounds at 116 pounds.—Rainey the winner; bout stopped by ref- eree in fourth round. away, some of his punches not travel- ing more than two inches. Then Thom- as would clinch and hold, but Kelly Kept poking with either hand that happened to be free of Thomas’ clutch, at the same time leaning forward and giving Thomas no chance to strike or break away without being hit. It was about the same style of battle he recently fought against Leo Witt and won It is rough sort of allling. but is fairly within the rules so long as the boxer is doing no holding, and requires the sort ‘of strength and ability to assimilate punishment that Kelly is noted for. Thomas landed some hard punches and uppercuts during the bout but they had but little apparent effect, and Thomas was forced on the defensive most of the time and had to do a lot of holding. It was announced that Monk Fowler of Memphis. Tenn., and Charley Arenson of Kansas City would appear in the main event n next Tuesday night. r Dr. L. B. Fowler was then introduced by Biz Kenney as the manager of Fowler. Just as the doctor mounted the platform some facetious spectator made reference to the medicine man’s luxuriant hirsute adornment. , The doctor then addressed the crowd and made an eloquent defense of whiskers. | ‘It’s the only Barry I ever pulled,” said Biz. _—__ @—__-— Say “Cornwall’s Health Drink” To your grocer.

But other teams have met almost the same’ fate, especially Cleve- land, that has won only four out of 15. Detroit alone has the bulge on Rowlan’s men, winning 10 out of 15.

July anxiety was felt in official circles today aver the situation in Mexico City, from which place no word had come of the tesults of the fighting said to be in pro- gress between the Carranza and Zapata in the outskirts of that city. 7.—Increasing forces Meager official advices received here reported a renewal of tne fighting, but save no indications of how it was pro- gressing. With reports at hand describing con- ditions in the Mexican capital as ‘‘piti- ful” and rapidly growing worse on ac- count of the shortage of food, officials today anxiously awaited the outcome of the latest fighting becatise of its possi- ble effect on the safety of forcigners ihere. It was hoped that United States Con- sul-General Shanklin and Charles J. (’Connor, in charge of the American relief measures in Mexico City, would be able to arrange for the transporta- tion of food supplies to aid the famine- stricken population. O’Connor, the Red Cross representative, reports that the relief problem is an immense one. Accidental Verdict in Boy’sx Death.

The members of the Finance Committee Were on hand in the Mayor's office at 9 o’cloek. Gilbert and Orr did not appear with the orders, and Gilbert told a Post-Dis- patch reporter that he did not under- stand that a meeting time had been fixed definitely, and that he was in dotibt if the checking up was necessary.

As the National Board of Censors appear to de- vote very little time to the moral atmosphere of the moving pictures, I would like to call their at- tention to a few ‘“‘dont’s” for the movie ‘Society man.”’ Avoid the shaven neck haircut, and the bunches of hair on the temples. Don't wear hat on side of head, nor silk one on back of neck. Shun the fedora for winter and Panama for summer. Eschew jewelry, especially lodge buttons, watch charms, and finger rings. Handkerchiefs should not peep from top pock- ets, nor shirt sleeves over one-quarter inch from coat sleeves. Suspenders should disappear when sleeves, and garters on sleeves—ye gods! Fear the fur-collared overcoat, and don't wear overcoat and hat into the drawing room; not even carry them therein. A FAN. in shirt The Price of Flour. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Inclosed clipping headed, “The Diminished Lwaf,” must come from people that think they know more about bread business than their own business. The price of old flour still is high and ‘now wheat flour will not be ready to use, owing to so much rain, till September. L. A. MANE WAL. East St. Louts, Ill. ‘‘What to Do With the Boy.’’ To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I wish to thank you for that splendid editorial in today’s edition “What to Do With the Boy.” ‘Tt is a most excellent stimulus for thought to parents who have a son or sons. This is a vital question and weighs heavily on the indulgent par- ents. Not very long ago I was asked to address the Madison County Medical Society at their an- hual banquet. Women being present, I eliminated all “shop talk’”’ and spoke on “the boy in the doc- lor’s family.” I simply state this as evidence of my appreciation of your editorial. ; DR. F. REDER. Arms Embargo an Unneutral Act. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, An embargo on munitions would help Germany and hurt England. That is why L. W. Plehn and ther Germau sympathizers want it put cn. Here fv the proof: On April 21, 1915, L. W. Plehn said in print, over his signature, “Nor would I and others, perhaps, be quite so insistent in urging an embargo if we were entirely indifferent as to the outcome of the war.” In plain English this greans that he wants the embargo put on so that Germany can win. His humanitarian plea is, therefore, not disinterested, nor is it logical. If supplying arms to kill our German relatives -_is wrong, is refusing arms to our allied relatives to save themselves from being killed right? Ger- man military service is compulsory. Every man is a soldier, fully equipped. Germany hae been preparing for the present struggle and accumu- _ supplies for over 40 years. Enmrlish serv- tee, like our own, is voluntary. Such soldiers are equipped when needed, partly from other neutral fMations. Germany concedes our right to sell war Supplies to the allies. To refuse to do so, in the midst of the war, would be an unfriendly act. JEFF MACKAY. Three Weeks of Noise. Teo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Last night the United Railways Co. worked a Gang of men all night putting in a new switch at Sarah and Olive. The din and noise was some- thing terrific, making sleep impossible, not only for residents near, but for a radius of several blocks in every direction. According to the pa- pers the company is about to rebuild their line from Fouth street to Boyle avenue and in order to complete the work in three weeks propose to work both night and day. Are the people who are so unfortunate as to live along this route to be Rept fram sieep during this time or have we éaftain fapiits that this company is hound to respect?

Germany’s effort to find out what terms would satisfy the President before formulating her re- ply to his submarine warfare protest is a good indication, but it should not be necessary. Germany knows what we want and what we, with other neutrals, are entitled to. She should answer the President’s note with a frank avowal of wrong-doing and an unqualified admission of ovr rights and of her legal obligations. She should assure Washington that American rights, international Jaw and the rules of humanity will be observed. Nevertheless, the effort to satisfy the President is proof of an amended disposition and a corrected standpoint on the part of the German Government. Germany sees the force of the President’s statement and feels the effect of that moral judgment, that awakened world opin- ion, which the Wilson notes expressed and crys- tallized. The Kaiser and his advisers have found that they cannot treat the rights of neutrals and the obligations of humanity with defiance or in- difference. We are making progress. | arrive at a satisfactory agreement hold out hope of a peaceful and friendly solution of the sub- marine controversy. In any event, much has been accomplished. As Prof. Ludwig Stein aptly ex- pressed it, President Wilson is rehumanizing war. “He has brought thinking minds back to the con- sideration of humanity.” To do this is to revive civilization. beginning of the work of peace. = = = — a HOLT’S SUICIDE. : Poor Holt! Himself diseased in mind, he was a symptom of a diseased public thought; a par- ticipant in and victim of crazy propaganda ugainst this Government and this country’s peace. And his end is ominous of the self-destruction which must be the only force of the propaganda. sa LL ~~ SS SS DOOTORS AS PEACEMAKERBS. A couple of St. Louis doctors suggest that an armistice be proclaimed by the warring nations, during which a commission composed of the most eminent physicians and scientists shall formulate terms of peace. Men, for instance, like Dr. von Behring, discoverer of diphtheria antitoxin; Dr. Paul Ehrlich, discoverer of Salvarsan; Sir Edward Gr: vhysician to King Edward; Dr. Fritz von Olberg, chief surgeon to Kaiser’ Wilhelm; Prof. Metchnikoff, Sir William Osler and others. Proponents say: “Those having the authority to continue war or conclude terms of peace trust their lives to their physicians; why not, then, place the lives of those in the field in the hands of a body of men whose professional learning and scientific achievements have fitted them to deal with the problem of life saving?’ and so on. Simple and sensible. But just now Europe is neither simple nor sensible. If an armistice could be brought about, peace might be almost in sight. However, as the doctors made no move to pre- vent the war, they hardly deserve to be given scle authority to terminate it, even if they were willing to do so.

But it is pleasant to think that the captain did not die in vain and that when his dead hand was swept away the wheel was grasped by the hand cf a brave son. Has a victory been won at great- er odds during the war? Capt. Parslow was worthy of the English merchant skippers in the old Elizabethan days who defied Spanish man-o’- war men. The British navy seems to need re- cruiting from British merchant skippers of this stripe. __ ~~ - A CROSS-STATE HIGHWAY. The meeting next Friday in Kansas City to pro- mote the improvement of the Old Trails road across the State interests all Missourians. Of course, it will immediately benefit only the peo- ple of the cities and counties it will serve as a highway, but the construction of one good road from the eastern to the western border will stim- ulate road building throughout the State. The Old Trails road confects St. Louis and Kansas City. It passes through some of the best counties in the State, including St. Louis, St. Charles, Warren, Montgomery, Callaway, Boone, Cooper, Saline, Lafayette and Jackson. Improved with a hard surface, it will be a great artery of traffic across the State, which in time will be connected with many brahch feeders. The people of the cities and counties through which the road passes are deeply interested in the propect and should co-operate heartily in carry- ing it to completion. About one-half of the road is improved with macadam, so that the undertak- ing is not very great. Each county can well af- ford to contribute its full share. It will pay. Good roads, particularly through highways, are vital factors in progress and prosperity. They open the way to markets or to steam and trolley roads which reach markets. The usefulness of steam and trolley lines is greatly curtailed with- out good roads as feeders. The opening of im- proved cross roads will follow the opening of great highways and thus all the peopke .of the State will be served. Until the Government undertakes the construc- tion and maintenance of national highways, the states must build and maintain interstate roads. The Old Trails road is a section of a national highway planned to cross the continent. Parts of it are now completed in Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana. Vigorous co-operative work on the part of the people on the line of the road will soon assure the completion of the Missouri section. Lp. dr i i HUERTA HUIMPERS. No less ambitious than Alexander the Great, who waxed lachrymose over his limitations, Vic- toriano the Little weeps in the jail at El Paso. “IT gave my word of honor that I would not at- tempt to leave El Paso and I aiso gave them bail,” he whimpers, ‘“‘yet I am forced to occupy this cell. There is one thing no man can say, and that is that I have ever broken my word.” We would be profoundly moved by these tears and the wounding of the sacred, highly sensitized honor if his back-from-Elba business were not so fresh in mind. As it is, we are obliged to reflect that the security of France and Europe would have been improved if they had put a ball and chain on Napoleon when they had him. ,_ The “word of honor” pleasantry is a little out of date among the would-be conquerors, the first fami- lies and upper circles of Europe having set the fashion of sneering at such things as being mere scraps of paper. ++ --—— SPIES WITH AMERICAN PASSPORTS. The trial in London of Robert Rosenthal as a naval spy deserves the close attention of the United States Government. When arrested he had in his possession an American passport, said to have been issued by the American Embassy in Berlin. Several German spies have been caught in En- gland who held forged and fraudulent American passports. The practice of using this means of protection for spies seems to be recognized in certain quarters in Germany. Rosenthal is re- ported to have confessed that a Captain in the German Admiralty office has a full equipment for manufacturing American passports. After repeated instances of this kind, it is time that the Washington authorities take definite action. The treacherous use of American pass- ports for purposes of espionage is an attack upon the rights of American citizens. If there is evi- dence that the German Government or any of its agents has resorted to this expedient, it should be called on to make an immediate explanation. Washington cannot be indifferent to the facts. a + & rv ‘‘TEMPERAMENT’’ AND DIPLOMAOY. Senator Phelan says that the trouble with James Mark Sullivan, our Envoy Extraordinary and Min- ister Plenipotentiary to Dominica, is tempera- mental. From the Minister’s name and the pictures of him printed in the press, it may be judged that the diagnosis is correct. But then our foreign service has often been long on temperament. One would think that Dominica was just the place for a Minister with temperament, but you never can tell. Brand Whitlock is supposed to be a man with considerable temperament, and it seems to be just the right thing in the right place for a coun- iry overrun by Germans and for securing proper respect. On the whole, however, it is something to be mixed most sparingly with diplomacy. If it was not temperament that plucked Harry Lane Wilson from Mexico City and a distinguished career in the use of language for the concealment of thought, what was it? The collective stock of temperament possessed by the Bellamy Storers has gone into the record with the “Dear Maria” correspondence. Some have wondered what it was that ailed our George Fred Williams when he presented his credentials as Minister to the King of Greece and started up the peninsula to the hinterland to begin the instant organization of the United States of Europe. It was tempera- ment, of course-—temperament in excess, super- fluity, overplus. Temperament is a liability that has overbal- anced assets in the case of men even higher up in our foreign service. It is suspected of having recently created a need for the appointment of oe . it? ’ S *® . a ai . rf $ *s wt ri ior ee © . ny *"?, oe ‘ge &) Ey s iJ E-os Ge 2 e ‘Seas. ed i Fas é “se Soe AN Sede er t “ . oF ah » ad ee ~ 3p © vied | JUST A MINUTE OUR OWN WAR EXPERT. HE allies continue to gain slowly in the Dar- fe danelles, their rate of progress appearing to be about ten feet per day. At this rate they will take Constantinople in about forty years, which is probably as soon as they will take it. Every mili- tary expert who has ever seen the Dardanelles has been impressed by their impregnability, and they are justifying anything that has ever been said for them. The allies there are in much the same position they are in on the Aisne. The Turks are enh- trenched, and they are not to be dislodged until they run out of supplies. In spite of the frequency with which Turkey has gone to war in late years, there are still a great many Turks. The allies encounter them in almost overwhelming numbers whenever ad- vance is attempted. The fleet is doing about as well under Mr. Balfour as it did under Mr. Churchill. The war on the Russian border is the same moving spectacle it has been for weeks, with the Russians moving not quite as lively. The Germans seem unable to resist the temptation to chase them, though military men everywhere doubt the wisdom of it, and it is our own opinion that when they coine back the Russians will be hot on their heels. The temptation to keep it up when you find someone you can whip is going to be the undoing of someone in this war before we have peace. It has almost wrecked the Russian army, which found it could whip the Austrians and ventured too far from its own ammunition factories; and now the Germans are do- ing the same thing. They think it will result in Russia being crushed beyond any danger of a re- bound, but Napoleon thought the same thing. It re- mains to be seen if Mackensen has anything under his hat that the little Corsican hadn’t. Don’t let our own opinion, which is merely personal, affect your judgment, but we are betting he hasn't. In France and Belgium the war is a draw. The combatants think not, but it is. There are coigns of vantage on that front which change as regularly as the ball does in a football game. Now the allies have it—now the Germans. Now the allies take it back; now the Germans capture it again. We are told by some of the British that the turning point in the war is taking place, but we can’t see it. It looks to us every day like the same old seven and six. The chemistry of the one side or the other seems superior at times, but it is all even in the course of time. They are all winning—they are all losing. They are all even. Unless we are mistaken, the turning point in the war will come somewhere else. Probably it will come when the Russians turn. The Italians seem to be doing nothing more than spending the Summer quietiy in the Alps. Prof. Holt would have saved himself a lot of misery by having chosen to be an instructor in international law.

Homeless, hungry, hunted from pillar to post, Tim braced up for an appeal for food. He knocked at the door, removed h's dusty, ragged cap and prepared to be polite, but insistent. Miss Nellie Burton, a little girl, viewed the stray caller gravely. She drew tho door wide open. “Come in, man,”’ she directed with due dignity. ‘‘My ma has gone down to the store and I'm all alone getting lunch. Are you hungry?” “T am that, ma‘’am,” assented Tim, and the little girl, flustered at the ma ture designation, courtsied him to a seat at a table. ~ they set at work to make a new home. The village cemetery had suffered no great devastation. At the end of a week a little white tombstone bore the simple name, ‘‘Nellie,”’ above an empty grave. It was some days after the great fire that a man, hobling along on a home- made crutch, passed through the little graveyard, leading a little child. Her hands were full of flowers. . She sud- denly paused before the new white tombstone. “Oh, look! look!” she cried. “My name —just the same! Maybe it’s some poor little child that was burned up in the big fire—just as I’d have been if it hadn’t been for you, dear, dear Uncle Tim!” ’ Uncle Tim? Yes, otherwise Frowsy “T can’t cook yet,” she explained, “but») Tim—and Nellie, in life and reality! I’ve got lunch and you can have some.”’ Tim’s face was on a broad grin. The oddity of the situation entranced him. The child poured him out a cup of tea and placed a plate of cheese and anoth er of bread and butter before him. Then, her chin resting in her hand, she sat studyng him, alarmed as slice after slice of bread disappeared, yet over- whelming him with questions. He told her of his wanderings with the birds as his companions and the flowers as his friends, weaving quite a fairy story for his entranced auditor. Tim Disappears. RS. BURTON, coming home, bare- IVI ly suppressed a scream and turned white and trembled as she caught sight of the burly stranger 1t the table. But Tim reassured her. His eyes were wet as he thanked his little hostess for the meal. “T had one like her once, in the dead long ago,” he said huskily. “I'll never forget this bit of kindness,” and was gone. Every morning for a week after that Mrs. Burton found a bouquet of flowers First it was butter- cups, then violets, then May apples, The morning dew held their freshness and she guessed ‘the donor, who had ram- bled the woods in the early dawn to pro- cure these humble offerings. Tim did not impose upon their kindness by calling again, but they heard he had been ordered away from the isolated timber town and had disappeared. He left behind him a vivid memory, however. In that hour when he had been the guest of little Nellie he had filled the child’s mind with new thoughts of nature. Tramp, derelict as he was, poor Tim would have been a poet had not strong drink wrecked his life. His ardent Mstener had inspired him to di- late on the symbolism and romantic beauties of the wildwood. For weeks Nellie talked of him, her head full of flower fairies, dew dia- monds, starshine pixies, all the quaint conceits°on which Tim had dreamed in his long rambles in the woods, The wild flowers had helped the illusions un- til they ceased to come. It was three months later, and falling leaf and faded flower had succeeded to the opulent bloom of the rich forest land. The little isolated settlement among the pineries was dozing daily in the haze of the smoke film borne down upon them lightly, but warningly, from ‘ the usual wood fires to the north. “Nellie Is Lost.

There was but one course of action open—to flee the town and take to the lake a mile to the east. Friendly neighbors had joined in the search for little Nellie.

When they were married they were a very congenial couple, because they forgave each other all their short comings. Forgiveness is the foundation of mat- rimony. It is so easy to for- give when love is the keynote of exis- tence; as it is, was and always will be world without end, Amen and " women. This pair, after 1 IRENE LOEB. the honeymoon stage was over, and they came right down to earth and earthly things, found many things they eyident- ly had not seen before while Cupid was on the job. In other words the adjusting process had set in, as it must do when pecople are joined together “until death do them part.’’ Thus the woman found many seem- ingly little trifles that accumulated and jarred on her; the way John held his cup when he drank his coffee, leaving his cigar etumps on the parlor mantel- piece or wherever he happened to be, the little twitch of the nose when he was angry and so on. John on his part hated the large figures on her kimono, and got tired of cold coffee, and hearing about Mrs. Nieghbor’s quarrel with the house- maid. Now it happened that this family had a. good friend, a woman who had known both of them long before they were mar- ried; and they would pour into her ears the grievances each held against the other; trivial in themselves, but in real- ity the invariable mountain that grows out of the mole hill. The friend would suggest this to the one and that to the other, constantly urging the path of give and take, which is the only one upon which double har- ness may pull together toward the happy highway of matrimony. 3 It worked for awhile, but at last the crash came. Wherever the fault was they’ could not ‘“‘gee’’ together. There was a big quarrel which as usual orig- inated with a trifle. They parted. She went home to mother and he went about his business. The friend who loved them both was grieved at this, and wanted to help mat- ters, as friends like that generally do. Being the mutual friend each aired their troubles to her, and she, in the guise of peacemaker, well meaning, of course, carried the woes of one to the other. But also, as wusuai there was pride on both sides, and sometimes when the peacemaker told John what Mary said about John, and vice versa not be- ing fully aware of all that went before, instead of helping matters she HURT them. Every word carried assumed propor- tions and significance that would have lost their force if the two most con- cerned had been facing each other. To make a long fable short, the hus- band and wife met. Since fundamentally they really cared for each other they CASTORIA For Infants and Children in Use For Over 30 Years age rege | Signature of fixed it up. But in comparing notes of what “she said to me’! (the peacemaker) the latter seemed to be the one upon whom all the blame was placed. There is something unexplainable about human nature by which the peace- miaker always gets the worst of it. Secmehow he or she is rarely forgiven for interference, no matter how well in- tentioned. The couple resolved to “cut out’ the peacemaker and in the future to settle their own quarrels, which, after all, is the only way. But the kind soul who had their inter- est at heart lost two good friends for her trouble. Moral: The friend who interferes between husband and wife usually loses their friendship. | SOME NEW RECIPES. | Pork Steak—Better from the ribs.

Tommy had lived at the mill for 10 years, ever since his parents died and left him an orphan. But the old miller was a cross man, who was always scolding, and Tommy often had a hard time oif he wanted to go fishing. One day as Tommy sat whistling he saw a wizened little man ride up on a donkey. When the miller came to the door the small man asked if he could have a sack of meal ground at once. “No,” roared the miller, who was in a bad humor. “Get off my place. I know you mountain gnomes for a set of pestering thieves, and I will not do any work for you.” The gnome said not a word, but turned his donkey and riding down the road| a bit, alighted. and sat under a tree to eat a bit of lunch. Presently the miller was called away from home and Tom- my was left in charge of the mill. With- out waiting a moment he ran to where the gnome sat and told him to bring his sack of grain back and let it be ground. So the gnome came, and in a few mo- ments the great-wheel was grinding the corn into fine meal. In another moment the glad gnome was trotting home hap- py on his donkey. HE next morning a strange thing T happened—there was not a drop of water coming down the stream to turn the wheel. The miller was speechless with astonishment and could do noth- ing but wring his hands in \despair. Every day the miller got poorer and more unhappy, for his machinery stood idle and there was no work done. His clothing grew shabby and his table had on it little to eat. One morning as he stood talking to Tommy the lad had an idea, but said nothing to the miller what he thought. “Tf I can make the water flow again as it did before,’’ said Tommy at last, ‘“will you give me a half interest in the mill ?”’ “Certainly, certainly,” said the poor miller. “I will be glad to do it. As things are now the mill fs Idle, there is no work for me, and we will soon starve.” After dinner ‘Tommy set out for the mountains. He knew the gnomes lived up there among the rocks, and guessed that the tiny men had some- thing to do with the water being gone. At sunset the lad found him; self in a pretty hollow within a wail of high rocks, and just before him lay the gnome whom he had seen at the mill, asleep. Tommy woke the little man up. “Our millrace has gone dry,” ex- plained the boy, “‘and there is nothing with which to turn the wheel. I can- not grind and will soon have nothing on which to live.” The little gnome went up to the lad, patted him tenderly on the back and replied: “T will not only turn on the water again, but will give a bag of our sand in the bargain. Follow me, and we will fix this up at once.” . P the mountain Tommy followed the gnome, till they stood on the bank of a stream flowing swiftly down the other way. It had been dammed with stones and sand from running down to the miller’s place, and was thus sent down in another direction. Tommy and the gnome set to work, and in a few moments the water was rushing down its old course to the mill. “Fill your pockets full of _ this sand and look at it in the morning,” said the gnome. “And remember, in most cases, as in this, it pays to be kind. Mean people generally meet what they give out to others. Good- by; I will call next year to see how you are getting on;” and with this the little man was gone. Tommy filled his pockets’ full of the, sand, then ran home. In the moon- light he could see the water gushing over the wheel and the miller stand- ing at the window looking at the joyous sight. In the morning he found the sand in his pockets was gold. (Copyright by the McClure News- paper Syndicate.

It was not part of my plan to let Jane xenow I was learning until I could dance as well as Lucius Hemming. I thought she would be delighted and anticipated a great deal of pleasure in surprising her. One day going home from my calls I happened on the lake drive. Look- ing ahead I saw Jane anc Lucius Hem- ming strolling slowly along. I called to them and Jane immediately said: “Will you take me home, George? I'rn very tired.’’ “Why, of course! I am finished with my cails,” making it appear—as I in- variably dic—that had I not been I would have refused her request. “You'll excuse me, Mr. Hemming,” she said gayly to her escort. “It’s not often I ride with the doctor.” “I’ve noticed that!” and he laughed, i thought disagreeably. ° Jane and Hemming.

He would tell you that he likes your breast milk best— he tells you now—as best his little voice can—that at about four months breast milk is not enough for his growing bones and body—that he wants something more—as nearly like that breast milk as he can get. And your mothers and grandmothers knew that what their babies needed was Nestlés Food If Your Little Baby Could Talk —— He would tell you that he does not want cow’s milk that settles into lumps on his little stomach—that makes the long, hot, close days of summer feel like a modified, so that the curd is soft and fleecy as in mother's milk. All that your baby needs and the calf doesn’t is added. It comes to you in a tight can — you add only fresh water. And — there you have NESTLE’S on which three generations have grown healthy and strong.

Chapter LI. “I can't] | My Wife's Husband A Domestic-Life Serial. and as Jane was particularly fond cf this dance I worked hard trying to per- fect myself. I had promised to call at the theater for her, and it was time to go before I realized it. I insisted upon taking Miss Reese to her home, and, in my hurry, forgot to restore the talking ma- : Upon our arrival at the house Jane went immediately to the library. “Why, where's the machine?” she asked. “I thought the room looked strange when I first came in, but ! couldn't wiink what was the matter.” “It’s in the office,"’ 1 answered, an- noyed that I had been so careless, aad disappointed that Jane should find ont I had been learning to dance, ani s spoil the surprise I had planned, i “What in the world have you heen Goirg with it in the office—playing ie some of your patients”” ‘aughingly. “Ss seems to me you would have been morg comfortable in the library.” i *‘Perhaps,”’ I evaded, “but I preferre the office.” 1 (To be continued.) Big Inventions That Hang Fire | The American Trolley Car. N 1847, in a Connecticut newspaper, | the following appeared: “The Pittsburg Journal has exam- ined an invention made by Mr. Lilly of that city in connection with Dr. Colton. which seems to challenge attention, not only for the ingenuity which it displays. but the useful results which it promises The machine is a small locomotive, an is placed upon a circular railroad, around which it is driven by electricity. ‘The power is applied, not fo the loco- motive, but to the track, and herein econ- sists the novelty of the invention or dis- covery. Two currents of electricity, negative and positive, are applied to the rails, and from these communicate with the engine. The latter is provided with two magnets, which, by a process of alternate attraction and repulsion, drive the car over the track. “‘A piece of lead was placed on the lo comotive, making in all a weight of about 10 pounds, and on the application of the battery, the machine moved with astonishing rapidity up a plane inclined about five degrees. Heretofore the pro- pelling power has been used on the car itself—in this instance, however, the power is placed in the rails, and an en- gineer might remain in one town, and with his battery send a locomotive anc train to any distance required.” Remember, this was in 187. Not untif the early '%s, or more than # year§g after, was the perfected trolley car pug into use in the large American cities. a em ee OO ee a ew ee eee ee : Don’t Hide Tnem With a Veil; | Remove Them With the Othine Prescription. This prescription for the removal of freckles was written by a promi- nent physician and is usually so suc- cessful in removing freckles and giv- ing a clear, beautiful complexion that it is sold by druggists under guar- antee to refund the money if it faild Don’t hide your freckles under a veil; get an ounce of othine and re move them.

MISSOURI PACIFIC READJUSTMENT INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT I In their letter dated January 20, 1915, to the stockholders of The Missouri Pacific Railway Company, the Proxy Com- mittee, consisting of Messrs. Alexander J. Hemphill, Otto H. Kahn, Seward Prosser, James N, Wallace and Robert Winsor, by whose votes the present Board of Directors were elected, recommended a program which contemplated the extension for one year of the $24,845 doo of Six Per Cent. Notes maturing June 1, 1915, and thereafter the submission to the security holdérs of a plan for the readjustment of the finaticial structure of the Company, to be carried out by voluntary action, if practicable. Pursuant to this pregram, the Board of Directors invited the holders of the above mentioned Notes to extend them for one year. This offer has met with a highly cooky response. Notwithstanding the inaccessibility of a considerable amount of the Notes held in Europe, more than $23,400,000 face value thereof (94% of the total outstanding issue) have joined in the extension. Accordingly, unless there shéyld be unexpected litigation holders of unextended Notes, the first and most pressing step in the program may be considered as having been accomplished. The Directors therefore new address themselves te the second problem, which urgently and imperatively calls for solu- tien, name! the readjustment ef the financial structure of the Company, and to that end t ey have invited the co-operation of Messrs. Kuhn, Loch & Co. and of the Committees representing bonds and stock. II The Missouri Pacific System, including the lines of the St. Louis, Iren Mountain and Seuthern Rail Comeany,* comprises 7,009 miles of r#ilroad (excluding about 274 miles leased or operated under trackage contracts) adeatrats raat 9 geographically and strategically in a territory which ig one of the richest and mest fertile in the United States. The property is in good physical condition and its management under President Bush is efficient and popular. The capitalization of the System, based en securities outstanding in the hands of the public, is at the comparative! low rate of ATL per mile, but of that capitalization $40,245 (about 77%) per mile is in fixed interest bearing ebligetions aan only $11,825 (about 23%) in stock. For the year ended June 30, 1915, notwithstanding the oy 4 of retrenchment which was pursued, the earnings of the System (last two months partly estimated) fell short of its total charges by approximately a million and a quarter dollars. During the next five and a half years prevision must be made for the followine obligations maturing within that period: Missouri Pacific Company Extended Three Year Six Per Cent, Secured Gold Notes due on or before June 1, 1916. $24,845,000 Little Reck Junction Railway First Consolidated 6s, due April 1, | ag (Iron Mountain) 4 ' é 14,375,00¢ Collateral Trust Ss, due Vanuary 1, 19 ret 4s, due February 1, 1919 (Missouri Pa 3,459,006 2 hyn je eee ee eae eeeee eee eeeeeeeeeesene $79,308,000 Total. .cccncecscccseseseseeeereere eter ereee esse teers eee eee eeeees ses seers eeeeseeeseseseseceses In its present position the Missouri Pacific System has no means of raising the money needed to meet these obliga- tions, while existing mortgage provisions forbid the extension of maturing bonds. Its free collateral is practically exhausted. ts eredit is so impaired that the market price of its Four Per Cent. Gold Lean Bonds and of its Five Per Cent. Refunding onds has fallen to about 40%, and even its bonds secured by underlying liens and maturing: in 1917 are selling on an interest basis of about 11%. Under these circumstances it would be impossible to raise capital by the sale of bonds, apart from the fact that it weuld be pursuing a fondementally unsound financial policy toe further accentuate the enleting tion between capital stock and funded debt. Ii? Prominent among the causes to which the present plight of the Company is due, are unremunerative freight and pas- senger rates, both loca! and interstate, from which the Company has thus far been unable te obtain material relief: heavy increases in taxation and wages, and many burdensome requirements imposed by public authorities; and large investments in the securities of other railroad soutpantes which, althou n they may have been justified at the time they were made, have since became unproductive. The amount invested in such securitics aggregates about $40,000,000 and entails heavy interest charges with no counterbalancing income frem $ er interest, Iv Under these circumstances a readjustment is essential in the interest of the seeurity holders of all classes. of Directors, in co-operetian with Messrs. Kuhn, Loe Co. and the several Committees respectively representing Cent. Geld Loan Bonds, Five Per Cent. Refunding Bonds and Steck, have adopted the Plan of Readiystment new submitted. It is urgently hoped and advised_that the Plan be promptly carried out by the veluntary action the rity holders con- eerned. Failing this, the foreclosure of mortga and « compennry reorgenization, involving, as it necessarily must, serious expense, delays and complications, cannot possibly be avoided, *Ineludi also 43.69 miles af Pee owned by Boonville, St. Louis and Southern Railway Company, substantially all of the stock of which Company is owned by, the Missouri Pacific Company. e Boards our Per V The main burden of the readjustment in its immedimc effect must necessarily be borne by the stock end by the two junior issues of bonds, viz., the Four Per Cent. Gold Loan Bends and the Five Ber Cee. Refunding Bends, bat it is hoped that the returns from the contemplated development the préperty will such as to more than compensate for tire modification in their status to which their h are now asked to vonsent. It has been deemed fair and logical to treat the two issues of bonds alike in the allotment of new securities. While the Five Per Cent. Refundin c order to ob by prior requiremen i t is : Missenri ec eously for either pr s for thé requirements af 4 ore than twice 4¢ much mile as the mortggge hey would not obtain the ts of the money to be ra the present Plan cereus the proposed ssourt Pacific stock, nor of the proposed retirement of the $29,425,000 of -% Mountain Six Per Cent. Bonds with their heavy sinking fund requirements, nor ef the provision for dealing with the Iron Mountain endorsement on $1,741,000 Texas and Pacific notes and fer psying the Iron Mowntain flcati debt. In other words, the Four Per Cent. Gold Bondholders would in that case become commen st ‘on Iron Muuntain Company saddled with the burden of financing it, instead of being, as they will be under the reet Pad. preferred stock- holders in the whole system with its financial needs adequately provided for. While it is deemed absolutely indispensable to convert these twe bond issges inte preferred stock (or income bonds if conversion into preferred stock should be found impracticable), it should be particularily observed that the proposed readjust- ment (except only for a portion of the money raised) places no lien ahead of them which does not rank prior to one or the othe? of them mow; in fact, upon the one consummation of the Plan, the chargés ra oe es of the new securities to be given to holders of Four Per Cent, mn Bonds and Five Per Cent. Refunding Bon (taking the a 8 whole) will be less than the charges ahead of them now. ent. . VI The terms of exchange offered te various bonds maturing within the next few years and te bonds secured sectiona) liens, are the result of careful study. Although the security for certgin issues of these bonds eonsists of lines which are ol strategic importance to the System, yet several of these lines fail to earn fixed charges and would be still less remunerative if they had to depend upon their own earning power as independent lines, with the increased expense and other ye of separate administration. Moreover, if the present to raise the funds required far the System es @ whole should ° the separate enforcement of the sectional mortgages would necessarily impose upon the holders of the bonds secured thereby the burden of providing the moneys required for these disjointed lines,—a burden lik to be increased by the delays ond complications incident to foreclosure proceedings and by the physical deterioration to which the properties would in the mean- time be exposed. The stockholders cannot be ex ed te provide the large amount of new money required fer present pur- poses unless provision is made in the Plan to take care of the obligations maturing in the near future, so as to afford reason- able assurance that the Company will be free from serious fimancia!l problems and thus protected against the risk of having te meet large cash requirements at an unfavorable time. It is believed that the Plan of Readjustment takes fell and fair account of the respective equities of the various bond issues, and that by consenting to the e & proposed the holders of such bonds will fare materially better than they possibly could by the enforcement of their respective liens. VII The principal advantages which will result frem the groposed readjustment, and which should more than compensate the security heldere for the changes in position which the Plan invelves, are the following: (a) Provision of new money, the payment or Nn of the obligations maturing during the next few years, and the consolidation into large issues of various minor bend issues. These minor bend issues have at present but a limited mee, which affects their saleability and, as a consequence, tends to injure the credit of the Company, whereas the new issues shou command a ready and active market. | (6) Fixed charges so reduced as to come well within the earnings ef the System even under the adverse conditions prevailing during,ythe past two years. (c) Reduction in the amount of fixed interest bearing securities by ever $60,000,000. (d) The new First and Refunding Mortgage, ———., as it will, a lien upon the entire Misscuri Mountain System, subject to prior liens aggregating only about $18,328 per mile upon the completion of the re affords a security which, it is believed, will not yee meet the requirements ef the present Plan tut ean be marketed, as occasion may require, to provide for obligations of later maturities and for the jerete tures which will be required frem year te your for improvements, betterments a additions. [ the for the fiscal year end June 30, 1918, the net income efter meeting prier lien charges is nearly three times interest on the new First and Refundin Mortgege 5% Bonds, 2 the balance then available is neatly two and times the interest on the new General Mortgage 4% Bonds. (e) The re-establishment of the Company's credit and the anticipated strengthening of the Company's position. Vill There is every reason to hope that with the prompt co-operation of the security holders the seadjustment can be seeom- plished in a comparatively short time. The property is in good physical condition. The present management has gone far in regaining for the Company the goodwill of the public im its territory. The System is not burdened with unprofitable leases and no levee sum is required in the near future for rehabilitation or the acquisition of additional property. With its financial structure suitably readjusted and its credit re-established and with the progress towards the resteration af reasonable rates, which may now fairly be expected, the Missouri Pacific System should be in « gpa oe te meet the demands of the rapidly growing territery which it serves and, in norma! times, earn a fair return upon securities previded for in the Plan of Readjustment. The gratifying recognition, which is becoming more and more general, that the interests of the public and of the rail- roads are identical and that both are benefited by socsprocatty. fair treatment, justifies the hope that in the task of : and re-vitalizing the Missouri Pacific System the Board of Directors and the Readjustment Managers may count support of the communities it serves and upon the co-operation of the public authorities at Washington and in the various States in which its lines are located. Holders of the various securities dealt with in the Plan are earnestly urged to deposit their holdings subject te the Plan and Agreement with the respective depositaries and sub-depositaries.
