By Karl H. von si Wiegand, A Staff Corresponden’ of the Post- Dispatch and the New York World. BERLIN. July 26. Fee og Hegue. July 27.—Bitterest disa ointment, bare- ly suppressed resentment, indignation and a feeliug that America is deliberate- ly taking advantage of the peeuliar sit- vation the Germ-n people find them- selves in to force its will upon Germany to the advantr~ of Great Sritain—all these mark the first reception of Presi- dent Wilson’s note by the German press and public. So fer as views are expressed in the Berlin newspapers and by such public men as I have talked with, the note has made a bad impression here. ‘‘Less than frie: ly” is the mildest characteriza- tion of the note. In a dispatch to.the Post-Dispatch on June 20 I said there were rocks ahead for the relations between the countries, and another period of squalls and stress was coming which would call for a clear head and cool. judgment on both sides. Events are’ confirming that prediction. While there is no blustering there is an almost unanimous agreement. that. the latest American document has created a grave situation. Officials Thinking It Over. There is no disposition in official cir- cles to discuss the note for publication.’ I was told: * ‘We have taken the note under consideration and are thinking it over. sad It has not been decided whether an answer will be made or what its nature will be, but the present disposition ap- pears to be that Germany will answer. There is manifest disappointment over President Wilson’s rejection of Ger- many'’s suggestion regarding a ‘sacred fleet’ for Americans. Prominent statesmen have expressed concern about the reception of the mote by the general public. Said one official: “It is impossible for us to make our itive, easily aroused people believe the fairness and impartiality of America toward Germany when you Bpeak to us in that tone and bring pres- @ure to bear only on us, when we are asked to abandon something which tn every respect is a counter-measure forced on us by England’s inhumane Starvation policy. When America exerts iteelf in a similar tone in other direc- tions to insist upon her unquestioned rights the German people will belicve that ARmerica is taking an impartial attitude for the freedom of the seas.”’ The text of the note was given to the press at 9 o'clock tonight (Monday). Thus far the papers have published only the outline and substance of the note. Virtually all the newspapers sound a note of gravity which has not been struck since the sinking of the Lusi- tania. Harden Sees lartiality. Maximilian Harden, who has not failed in his characteristic cool judg- ment to be just to America in its at- titude toward Germany, told me that while the new note might be justifiea largely in principle from America’s viewpoint, “it is very hard and could not be much harder for the German people in this hour.” He confirmed my own impression that the note had created intense feeling and added that unfortunately he could but express conviction that America’s fight for the freedom of the sea was wholly one- sided and directed only against Ger- The very indpendent and liberal Ber- liner Tagebiatt. which hitherto has taken @ strong stand for the possipbil- ity of an amicable agreement and has been — those writers and papers +h Were opposed to conceding any- thing. is much hurt by President wn.- we of ‘Count Ernext von Reventlow, ‘on and mor.) resentful in the Matt than ae ‘a gua in the 01 ye Bernard editor in chief of the | SHOWERS FOLLOWED BY FAIR WEATHER EARLY NEXT WEEK THE TEMPERATURES.

SUBMARINE HAS TWO- BRITISH SHIPS IN HAND AT SAME TIME but Germans Sink Coast Steamer. English Patrol Boats Save the Liner Turnwell. NEW YORK, July 27.—Capt. of the British steamer Turnwell, arrived today from Swansea, reported that after sailing from Liverpool on June 15 he encountered a German sub- marine 35 miles off Tuskar. The sub- marine fired several shots from a rapid firer at the Turnwell and the crew of the latter took to boats. The Germans then boarded the Turn- well, Humby said, and had exploded several bombs in the empty hold when the British coasting steamer Trafford appeared. The submarine crew then ¢urned their attention to the coaster, which they sunk. The submarine-.crew then returned to the Turnwell, but be- fore they could do any further damage to the steamer, patrol ‘boats of the Brit- ish fleet appeared and the submarine disappeared. The Turnwell’s crew returned to its vessel and plugged up leaks and, with all pumps working, the ship reached Milford Haven, where repairs were made. The Turnwell then continued tc Swansea. PRESIDENT GIVES UP GOLF FOR OFFICIAL BUSINESS Report on Sinking of Leelanaw by German Submarine Awaited by Executive. CORNISH, N. H., July 27.—President Wilson gave up his usual morning game of golf today and was at work on offi- cial business received from Washington soon after breakfast. Up to noon the President had not re- ceived from the State Department any official word of the sinking of the Amer- ican steamer Leelanaw by a German submarine nor a copy of the latest Brit- ish note on the order in council. He expected information on both subjects to arrive later. Unofficial news that the crew of the Leelanaw was given ample warning be- fore the steamer was sunk, was re- ceived with satisfaction at the summer White House, although the Presiden: would not commit himself as to whether the American Government would take any action. EXTRA SESSION DNLY IN CRISIS President Has No Intention Now oaf Assembling Congress. WASHINGTON, July 27.~Although re- ports were circulated today that the President was determined to call an extra session of Congress for the pur- pose of getting the legislation that would make possible the reorganization of the army, it is understood here that he has no such intention at the present time. The Post-Dispatch has been informed that the President has no desire to cal) Congress to Washington unless there should be such a crisis in the foreign situation as to cause him to believe that the United States was to be plunged- into the European war.

MOVE I1S OF SIGNIFICANCE England May Have Taken Cog- nizance of Communication to Berlin. * By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, July 27.—Sir Edward Gray cabled Secretary Lansing today that the British Government has in preparation another note on the orders in council and asked that the note de- livered yesterday be withheld from pub- lication pending receipt of the new com- munication. Therefore, yesterday’s note will not be published tomorrow, as had been planned. No indication of the nature of the forthcoming note was given in Sir Ed- ward's cable and State Department of- ficials have no intimation. They as- sume, however, that it is of a supple- mental nature. The development: will further delay dispatch of the American note to Great Britain on interference with commerce between the United States and neutral nations. Secretary Lansing had about finished it and it was to be sent to President Wilson at Cornish, N. H., for his approval. It will not be dispatched until the new British note has been re- ceived and considered. Secretary Lansing said the message from London stated the new note would be here in another week. In official quarters the development was regarded as highly. significant. The belief prevailed that the last American note to Germany, with its reference to the freedom of the seas, may have in- fluenced Great Britain to place herself on record as willing to take under con- sideration any new suggestions by the United States to the belligerents. Sir Edward Grey’s request that the note réceived yesterday be withheld was taken to mean, at all events, that a new situation had arisen on.that some new proposals were about to be made by Great Britain to alleviate the effects of the order in council. In view of. the development, Secretary Lansing declined to discuss the British note already in hand, but took occa- sion today to deny reports that cotton was about to be placed on the contra- band list by Great Britain. Mr. Lan- sing declared there had been no discus- sion whatsoever, between the State De- partment and the British embassy or tne British Foreign Office in London relative to a change in the non-contra- hand status of cotton, ASTRONOMER PREDICTS BIG SUNSPOT FOR THURSDAY Brother Herbert of Christian Brothers College Studying Effect of Phen- omina Upon Weather. Brother Hubert, Cnristian Brothers College astronomer and physicist, who has been amusing himself fin the vaca- tion months by studying sun spots and keeping tab on the weather, said this morning that perhage the largest sun spot of the present year would be visi- ble Thursday. Of course, it cannot be seen with the unaided eye, but a smal! telescope properly equipped, will re- veal it. It will be a mere blot—45,000 miles across—on the sun’s surface. Brother Hubert has observed that every time there is great sunspot activ- ity there is a marked change of the weather. He is trying to determine what influence the sun spots have on the earth’s magnetic field and whether it has much to do with these fluctua- tions. If they have such an influence, the astronomer thinks we should have murky, unsettled conditions the rest of this week and that we should hear of thunderstorms and possibly wind- storms by Saturday or Sunday. EIGHT MEN KILLED BY GAS EXPLOSION IN ILLINOIS MINE 15 Others Injured tm nd CHICAGO, July 27.~With the takins of.téestimony by the Coroner's jury, the first open investigation “into the capsiz- ing of the steamer Eastland started today. At the same time investigations were being conducted by the State grand jury, the Federal authorities ana the City Council. The State Publi- Utilities Commission issued an an- nouncement that it would not conduct an investigation as it had planned, the reason given being that tne matter was fully covered by other investigators. Secretary of Commerce Redfield ar- rived today and took up what he prom- ised would be a “horough inquiry. A short time later attorneys from the United States District Attorney's of- fice visited all of the men held in cus- tody as witnesses and obtained state- ments from them, at the same time subpenaing then: to appear before the Federal grand jury, which will meet Thursday. Secretary Redfield said he welcomed the most searching investigation possi- ble and that if a Federal Inspector were at fault no one was more inter- ested in it than he. State's Attorney Hoyse also was ac- tive in his investigation, and the co- operation that he ieceived today from both the Federal authorities and thie police indicated that the threatened strained relations amon these threv sets of investigators had turred intv complete harmony. Majority of Funerals Tomorrow. Hoyne said today that he was confi- dent the boat was overloaded. ‘From all accounts there were scores of chil- dren on the boat, only part of whom can be acc ounted for by the ticket stubs,”’ he said. The funerals of those drowned contin- ued to be held today, although the great majority will be buried tomorrow. The work of taking the bodies from the river continued with unabated ener- gy. The bridges around the scene of the disaster were thrown open to the pedes- trians ‘this morning, but the order was soon réscinded owing to the enormous crowd that gathered. At noon today the official list of dead and missing was: Identified dead, 822; unidentified Send, five. Missing .Western Electric Co.'s list), 393. Total, 1220. Not more than 40 bodies remain in the hull of the Eastland, according to Wii- liam Demeat, a diver whe is working on the wrecked boat. “A strong under- current has swept a large number of bodies away and they are now floating in the river or the drainage canal,"’ De- meau said. At the opening of the inquest Coroner Hoffman announced that its object was to ascertain the cause of the disaster and place the blame where it belongs. “It is the intention to make «a fair. thorough and impartial investigation,” said the Coroner. Victor A. Olander, secretary of the -guoted as denouncing the United States \Lake Seamen's Union, who had been inspection: service of lake boats, would, it was said, be a witness both before the Coroner’s jury and the grand jury. Redfield Issues Statement. Secretary Redfield, in a statement is- sued today, not only denied that steaw boat inspectors were appointed at the instance of steamboat owners, as had been charged, but also denied that Olaa- der ever brought to his attention the condition of the Eastland. Secretary Redfield, in his statement, added: ‘‘On my arrival in Chicago this morn- ing I met D. M. Hoover, deputy Super- vising Inspector-General of the Steam- boat Inspection Sérvice, and Capt. H. Westcott, Supervising Inspector of the Eighth District Both have been noti- fied to appear before the State grand jury. I instructed them to say to that grand jury and any properly constituted authority that the De- partment of Commerce and the steam- boat inspection service have nothing to fear or conceal; that it desires the full- est possible light thrown upon every detail of its work and organization that anyone anywhere may see fit to make. “They were told to lay everything in their possession and knowledge before the State grand jury or any other legal hody dcesiring information. They were instructed to say to the State grand jury that I will willingly appear befor= any body to give them any information in my possession. “They also were instructed to tell the State grand jury that since the local in- spectors at Grand Haven, Mich., who inspected the Eastland were possibly outside the jurisdiction of the State of Illinois I would at once order them here for examination by the State grand jury if that body Jesires it done. “T also instructed them to say that the supervising inspector at Cleveland who had the vessel under his care for some years snd is possibly outside the State jurisdiction, will be summoned here if the State grand jury or any other Lody or person having authority wishes it.’ Tells of Alleged “Arrangement.” State’s Attorney Hoyne déclared that Capt. Pederson of the Eastland told hiw that Federal sanction for increasing the boat's carrying capacity without change in. construction was “arranged,” and that he (Pederson) was told to go to Grand Haven, Mich., and get the certifi- cate. Etate’s Attorney Hoyne stated this morning that, from all accounts, there were probably more than 2700 persons on the Eastland when she turned over. “I have obtained the stubs of 2650 tickets, in round numbers, collected at the gangway.” said Hoyne. “All children under & years were not counted, and there were many of these. : “Of all children between 5 and 12 GERMANS BERLIN, July 27, by wireless to.

At the same time several shells were thrown into the villages of Fano and Senigallia. At the same hour two hydroaeropianes drepped bombs on Ancona.

A‘ recurring note, charging unfairness in America’s alleged manifest partiality and one-sided attitude in this and other notes, in contrast with her attitude to- vard Great Britain and indifference to- ward Engiand’s violation of internation- al law in blockade, has been struck everywhere. This alleged partiality is commented on with great bitterness in every discussion of the note I have heard in responsible quarters. “Delighted, of course,"’ said one of- ficial with cutting sarcasm. “It is an- other proof of your much vaunted square deal‘for all,. of your insistence upon your rights against one nation but utter disregard of your rights when these rights are violated by the other, and that is what you call American sense of justice.” _ ; Were J to sum up the reception of the note in words, it would be, “hard, bitter and unfriendly.” It is undeniable that there is a deep undercurrent of quiet but intense bitterness created by | the note, which in some quarters is re- solving into the firm conviction that: America's unfriendliiness is a factor which will have to be reckoned with. - Present Fiare-Up to Subside. | My personal opinion, based on know!l- edge of the situation here and of the temper, character and mood of the men who have the responsibility, is that the present flare-up will subside and will be replaced by calm deliberation before any answer or action is decided upon.

Bass, in the Daily News, says: According to reports fhe Russians have withdrawn to their last line of defense before Warsaw. These defenses are called the Blonie- Grodek line. This is half way between Warsaw and the old line of defense on the Bzura and Rawka rivers, on which the Russians and Germans have been fighting without material advantage on either side since Déc. 19. The new line at Blonie is about 15 miles from the city. It was constructed by the Russians during the winter and was just being completed when I left Russia. it was not built by soldiers, but by Pol- ish laborers employed by the Russians at 7% cents a day. The line runs from the curve of the Vistula north of War- saw at the fortress of Novo Georgevik, south through the town of Blonie, then south to the town of Grodek, then southeast to a point of the Vistula Riv- er virtually at the fortress of Ivango- rod. It is about 80 versts (50 miles) long. Last Defensive Position. This line constitutes the iast defensive position of the Russians west, of the Vistula River. I have been over part of the line and in placeé which I visited it consisted of six distinct lines of trenches, one behind another from 200 to 2000 yards apart. These trenches were constructed with the utmost care and were pronounced by the foreign military cbservers who accompanied me the best constructed trenches they had even seen. They are far better than the original de- fenses of the Russians on the Vistula and Rawka rivers. The trenches are connected by sunken passageways in different places. These afford an opportunity for the troops to retire from trench to trench. There are elaborate protections of barbed wire en- tanglements on wooden posts. Some of these entanglements project high above from Russia, j only two feet high, and are constructed in a broad ditch which prevents their being seen at a distance. As to the trenches themselves, they are deep enough so that a man maj stand upright in them and still be pro tected. They are elaborately btilt up with sandbags, and the front parts have been covered with sod. They are so situated that the field of fire is over at least 1000 yards of open, flat plain, un- obstructed by trees or any shelter for an enemy, so that a charge made by the attacking troops would have to be in plain view of every Russian soldie’ in the trenches. Guns Hidden Behind Trenches. Behind the trenches and close to them are carefully hidden gun positions so situated that the gunners get full and direct aim at any oncoming troops. Te lines are so strong that it is inconceiv able that they should be taken by direct assault from the west, and if they are abandoned by the Russians and held by them only in a rear-guard action by a few troops, it must be because the Rus. sian lines have been broken east of the Vistula in the south of Poland, near Lublin, or on the northeast from the east Prussian front. Breaking of the Lublin line would cut the Warsaw-Lublin-Kiev Railroad. Breaking of the line In the north would cut the Warsaw-Grodno-Petrograd Rail- road. The cutting of these two lines would leave only one line of cOmMmmun'- cation and retreat open from Warsaw. the Warsaw-Siedloe-Brest-Litovsk Rail- road, and render probable the capture of large bodies of troops and supplies by the Austro-Gefman forces. The defensive line south of Lublin is the weakest because the Russians did not expect to be driven out of Galicia and had little fear of the Austrian of- fensive. The line én the north is pro- tected by a series of forts which have withstood all German attacks for sev- éral months. the surface of the ground; others are —s — of the question of indemnification for the American lives lost to arbitration will perhaps be suggested. This sug- gestion was under consideration during the drafting of the earlier notes, but, if decided upon, will almost certainly not be put into operation immediately. One factor in this determination is the desire to await the outcome of the negotiations with England and regard- ing interference with American trade. The outcome of this dispute, it is be- lieved, is not likely to affect the general German. policy regarding submarines, but the tone of the American note to in interpreting the latest note to Ger- many. Officials believe thie is decided- ly brusque and not calculated to ald in the séttlement of the German-American difficulties. Sea Rights of Neutrals. Prof. Eduard Hellfron, an authority on international law, commenting in an article in Der Tag on the American note to Germany, says: “The Amer- fean hote Must produce indignation and great irritation. President Wilson's contention that American citizens may travel “where their interests upon the high sear call them is absulutely unten- able. “International law unconditionally ac- knowledges that nevtrals do not possess not a neutral ship, but a hos- of which there were strong of her being turnea Into an en Ses Ne ne rt a Tee “The insinuation of the United States that Germany should give up her sub- marine warfare so that American citi- zens could travel on British ships 1s compreiensible because it is in ac- cordance with the entire attitude of the American Government toward Ger- many. “The delivery of arms and ammuni- tions net always violates neutrality, but if the fighting power of one bellic- erent exclusively depends upon the de- livery of arms and munitions by a neu- tral Power, then it constitutes a viola- tion. Submarine Methods. “President Wilson speaks of a new and unexpected method of naval war- fare and the May note acknowledged the impossibility of submarines detain- ing hostile ships. A necessary conse- quence is the destruction of such ves- sels. Instead, Presicent Wilson demands that. Germany abandon the use of her most useful weapon to allow sume Americans to travel on the British ships instead of being eatiefied with taking passage on American, Dutch, Swedish Norwegian or Danish ships.’’ The comment of the principal previn- clal mewspapers agrees with that of the Berlin press, that the American note ts entirely unéatisfactory and leaves Germany no alternative to continuing her submarine warfare against hostile commerce, regardless of consequences unless ‘Great Britain, as a result of the fortheoming note from Washington sees | cruiser at any Moment: Serge oN 9 cle ial chen we fit to change her illegal blockade aut icy,” ~ eee bodies, but there was no one there to receive them. Insurance managers estimate that be- tween 50 and 75 per cent of those wh» died on the Wastiand carried policies. the average amount being $300. + They say $600,000 will be paid this week to families of those drowned. Severa] ot the skilled workers of the Western Electric Co. carried policies of $5000. Several Chicago representatives of the insurance companies have omitted the customary red tape and have started to pay the claims. Other Ships Unsafe, He Says. William Olander, secretary of the Lake Seamen’s Union, said today that there were many other ships on the Great Lakes as dangerous as the Eastiand because of fanlty construc- tien. He ssid the Eastland was not properly designed tu be stable and that the water ballast system was not the main fault. He charged that United States Inspec- tors under Capt. Charles H. Westcott of Detroit, chief of the Lake District, had played into the hands of the ship owners at the expense of sailors and passengers. He said this was shown by the fact that 31 ships passed by the inspectors had sunk In the Great Lakes since 190, é6everal of them taking all on board to death. This statement and others of a similar nature caused the investigators to decide | to look into the conditions of all vessels sailing from Chicago Harbor.

Members of the crew of the steamer were brought to the inquest under guard of policemen. The first witness was Robert Moore, a passenger. Moore said he arrived at the Eastland at 7 o'clock in the morn- ing and was on the boat when it over- turned. He was asked by Coroner Hoff- man to describe what he saw. “As I went on board I saw a great quantity of water rushing out of a pipe at the side of the boat. The first sign of listing I saw at about 7:1. I was at the rail on the second deck and the refrigerator in the bar tipped over. It was eight or 10 minutes from the time the boat began Histing badly until it overturned. “There was ample time, I think, to have emptied the boat had the warn- ing been given. There was no warning When the boat went over I was thrown into the water and was rescued with a number of others.” The witness said that all the decks were crowded, particularly the upper deck, and declared positively that there Was no rush across the deck before the boat overturned. “There was no excitement,” said the witness, “until the list became danger- ous.”’ * Over 7000 Tickets Sold. The second witness was Daniel W. Gee, who was one vf the committee of the Western Electric Co. employes Which arranged for five steamers to carry the excursionists to Michigan City. The contract between the Indiana Transportation Co. and the Employes’ Committee was read into the records. Gee said that 6900 full fare tickets were sold at $1 each and several hundred half fare tickets. The contract called for a rebate of 50 cents a tickét on all tick- ets in excess of 4000. “I noticed the Eastland was listing but not more than I had often seen in other boats,’’ said Gee. “I did not see the boat capsize as I was at another part of the dock at the time.”’ Gee said children under 5 years of age were to be carried free but that no list was kept of the children. One ad- ult ticket was honored for two children, he said. Walter K. Greenebaum, manager o the Indiana Transportation Co., told of chartering the Eastland from the St. Joseph-Chicago Steamship Co. for the Western Electric Co. excursion. “If a boat was loaded to capacity and the crowd surged to one side, would it cause the vessel to list?’’ asked Coro- ner Hoffman. “Yes,"" was the reply.. “We . have guarded against that listing on our boats by placing benches through the center of the boat and distributing the passengers so as to minimize that dan- ger.”’ State’s Attorney Hoyne asked: “Do you think that any boat that car- ries water for ballast and not simply for trimming purposes should carry passengers?” “Yes, under proper circumstances,”’ replied Mr. Greenebaum. o Negro Grahd Lodge K. of P.

WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT. MAYOR TELLS WHY T LOUIS SHOULD ANNEX SUBURBS Says Boston Has Taken In 16,000 Population in Effort to Be Fourth City. Speakers at the St. Louis Advertising Club’s luncheon, in the Majestic Ho- tel today, advocated a campaign to an- nex suburban territory to St. Louis, in time to get the benefit of the added population for the 19% census. The speakers were W. S. Donaldson, presi- dent of the club, Mayor Kiel, George 8. Johns, Frank M. Curlee and Charles A. Stix, The Mayor said Boston had added 16,- 000 to its population by annexing a sub- urban district, and that in this way Boston hoped to crowd St. Louis out of fourth place in the 19% census. He men- tioned also the growth of Cleveland, Los Angeles and Detroit, and said that, 'f St. Louis should lose her relative census rank, the loss could never he explained. What City Offers. et The Mayor then told what St. Louts had to offer to the suburban communi- ties, in order to get them to approve the plan. He said the city’s public build- ings, waterworks, parks and play- grounds, and other municipal assets, were worth $60,000,000 to $65,000,000, and the city’s bonded indebtedness is but $24,000,000, leaving a balance of $36,000,000 or more in the city’s favor, in which the annexed communities would share. He spoke of the water, light and sew- age questions, and said that if St. Louis will go at the annexation movement in earnest, and not in the easgy-going way in which it undertook the Parkway campaign, the movement will succeed. Johns, who is a resident of the county, told in a humorous vein of the lack of city comforts there, and said that the great present need was a system of rapid transit to the suburbs. He con- sidered the annexation movement a timely and proper one, but said the city’s great need was free communica- tion with all surrounding places, par- ticularly a cheap transportation con- nection with East St. Louis. He read a letter signed by E. C. Jen- kins, saying the Shrewsbury Park Im- provement Association would co-operate in the annexation movement. Change in Law Discussed. Curlee spoke of the legal requirements for annexation, and said that, in his opinion, an amendment to the State Con. stitution would be required. This wouk! mean a long campaign, he said, but the work of building up annexation senti- ment need not wait ofr the adoption of a constitutional amendment. He stid he believed something like the borough sys- tem would have to be adopted, to make it possible to use a different tax rate in the new and old parts of the city, and 0 give the ‘newer parts some local selif- government.

LONDON, July 27.~—The casualties in the British army and navy have reached a total of 330,995, according to a printed statement issued by Premier Asquith. - The total naval casualties up to Julv 20 were 9106, and the military casualties to July 18 were 321,889. The naval) losses were divided as follows: Officers killed 449, wounded 87, miss- ing 29; men killed 740), wounded 787, missing 274. Premier Asquith announced in the House of Commons on June 9 that the total British cagsuaities, excluding the naval division, had been 258,069 up to May 31 in killed, wounded and missing. This shows casualties in the army alone of 63,820 between May 31 and July 1%. A statement made in London, June 15. giving the number of killed, wounded and missing in the British navy up to May 31 as 13,47 evidently ‘was ar- roneouas, in the face of Premier As- quith’s statement. On April 11, H. J. Tennant, Under Sec- retary of War, announced the total of British losses since the beginning of the fighting as 139,347. If his figures were correct the British have lost 182,342 men in the last 14 weeks, an average of 13,- 000 a week. Great Britain is the only one of the PoWers engaged in the war which has announced from time to time her tote! casualties. Germany has issued at home full lists by name of all men killed, wounded -or missing, but the Government has given out no official total. No comprehensive lists of casualties have been given out by France, Russia, Austria-Hungary or Italy.

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPAT™ TRUST'S” BREAD DUTPUT DAILY PUT AT 200,000 LOAVES Independents Testify at Ouster Hearing That They Produce Only 125,000. STATE CLOSES ITS CASE Defense Is Refused Request for Postponement of Several Weeks. Assistant Attorney-General Ewing closed the State’s case in the _ St. Louis “Bread Trust’ ouster hearing at the Planters Hotel this morning, with the announcement that he wished to reserve the right to intro- duce at the next hearing some state- ments of independent bakers as to the amount of bread produced by the various bakeries in the city. He said he wanted to offset the contention of the American Bakery Co. officials that the company does only about 25 per cent of the business in St. Louis. The State's contention is that the American Bakery Co. virtually has a monopoly of the local trade. Wit- nesses thus far heard have varied widely in their estimates of the bread output in the city. Fred S. Freund, the American company’s treasurer, yesterday estimated the company’s output at 150,000 loaves daily, and the independent output at 225,000 loaves. George Manewal, an independent bal - er, in his testimony, reversed these fig- ures, and estimated the output vf the “Bread Trust” at more than 200,000 loaves daily and the combined output of all the other bakeries at about 1%,- 000 loaves. The Assistant Attorney- General said he hoped, by the final statement he will introduce, to show the exact figures on the outpst. Postponement Is Refused. Commissioner Lamm, denied permis- sion, asked by counsel for the “Bread Trust,’’ to postpone further proceedings in the case for four or five weeks. Sam B. Jeffries of counsel for the American company, after the Assistant Attorney-General announced the closing of the State’s case, said the Gefense was in doubt whether or not to call wit- nesses. Jeffries asked permission to file a de- murrer and reserve the right to cail witnesses until such time as the testi- mony taken during the last 10 days can be transcribed. The official stenogra- pher said that this would require four or five weeks, and possibly more. Commissioner Lamm would not con- sent to such delay. He said he intended to present his report in the case to the Supreme Court in October. An adjourn- ment until Thursday was finally agreed upon. The defense then may call wit- nesses or stand upon a demurrer. The Commissioner agreed that if the defense wished, it could introduce state- ments from retail dealers regarding their knowledge of the American company’s organization, and copies of advertising matter circulated by the American com- pany without the calling of witnesses. Oral A ments Ordered. The Commissioner added that before be makes his report he will insist upon ‘oral arguments by counsel. ‘I hope you gentiemen will be able to explain this trust business to me,”’ he added. Assistant Attorney-General Ewing and counsel for the American Bakery Co. held several long conferences yesterday. (These gave rise to rumors that the com- pany had made some proposal to the State which might bring about some form of settlement. After a brief after- meon session the hearing was adjourned wntil Thursday. Later counsel con- ferred again and decided to resume the bearing today, as originally planned. Morris Freund, a salesman for the Manewal Bread Co., one of the large bakeries outside the american Bakery Co., testified to his bélief that all the independent bakeries are losing money at present. He testified that all are car- rying heavy mortgages upon their prop- erty. The seven companies comprised in the American Bakery Co. are making money, he said, adding to their plants and paying high salaries to officials. 1500 STRIKERS ARE BACK AT WORK IN THE OIL PLANTS NEW YORK, July 27.—About 1500 of the men who have been on strike for several days returned to work today in the plants of the Standard Oil Co. and the Tidewater Oil Co. in Bayonne, Mayor Pierre Garvin and Sheriff Kin- kead declared that the strike was bro- ken, that by tomorrow all of the strik- ere would be back at work and. that several hundred guards who have been protecting the plants could be removed. The Sheriff said he was positive an in- crease in pay would be granted to the employes before the end of this week. About 5000 men have been idle since the strike began in the plant of the Standard Oil Co. As a result of this strike, and of disorders in which sev- eral of the strikers and their sympa- thizgers were shot and killed, employes of the Tidewater Ol] Co. quit work. It was said they did so unwillingly. MRS. KXIELY LEAVES CITY Commission Merchant’s Wife to Re- ture for Divorce Suit, Friends Say. It was learned today that Mrs. Robert M.

GRAND JURY TO BE TOLD OF VIOLATIONS County Prosecutor Also Will Complain Against Apparent Laxity of Officials. — Prosecuting Attorney Ralph of St. Louis County announced today that he would go before the grand jury next Tuesday with evidence of violations of the Sunday liquor law at Creve Coeur Lake resorts, and with a complaint against certain township and county of- ficers for failure to enforce the Sunday law. : Ralph sent an expedition to the lake Sunday to purchase beer as evidence. Two of his assistants, Floyd W. Brooks and M. T. Israel, and Justice Rowe of Kirkwood, were buying beer in Julius Tischmaker’s saloon when Deputy Con- stable Clarence Campbell of Bonhomme Township, who is also a watchman for the United Railways Co., appeared. Within a few minutes, according to Brooks, all the beer in sight disappeared and the investigators could not buy any more. Campbell told reporters at Clay- ton yesterday that he supposed Brooks would accuse him of having ‘tipped off’ the saloon keeper. Not Interested in Lid Law. “T didn’t do it,”’ he said, ‘‘but a man from Clayton did. I am not looking for violations of the lid law. I am watching out for fights and pickpockets. If I knew that thieves were_working around the lake and that saloons were selling liquor on Sunday, I would go after the thieves and when I got them I would look for more thieves."’ The Prosecuting Attorney learned of Campbell’s remarks and expressed dis- satisfaction. He said that if his assigt- ants were able to find violations of the liquor law the regularly constituted deputy sheriffs and constables should be able to do the same. He hopes the grand jury will take action which will fix the responsibility for laxity in en- forcing the lid law. The prosecuting Attorney's office has information that there are ‘‘cappers”’ in a soft drink establishment on the east side of the lake, controlled by the United Railways, to direct thirsty peo- ple to the west side of the lake, where the saloons and lid clubs have been operating in violation of the Sunday A boat line between the east and west shorcs is in continuous operation on Sundays, and the prosecuting offi- cials said they had information that the railways company got one-half the ferry fare for all passengers who visit- ed the illegal resorts. They Flee From Crowd. After the episode in Tischmaker’s sa- icon, Brooks Israel and Howe, fear- ing that they were going to be at- tacked by a crowd of rough-looking n:en congregated there, slipped out at the back door and ran through the brush and marshes nearly a mile to their automobile. At one point they had to hire a woman to row them across the neck of the lake. Ralph said that former Prosecuting Atorney Lashly had vigorously prose- cuted the viviatorsa of the liquor laws during his term of office and that he expected to pursue the same polity, even if he had to get al! of the évi- dence through his own office. Lashly was compelled to send out deputies and t» go himself to the different resorts in the county to gather evidence against the vielators of the law, as the other county officials, whose duty it was to make arrests and report violations, cid nothing to put an end to infrac- tions of the law. The three investigat- ors, besides the evidence against the Creve Coeur lake resorts, also obtained evidence of the vidlation of the law ae ies yt S PD ore wre ai Eden Park, near Meramec Highlands. OF LIDLAW ATLAKE REBELS IN HAITI ATTACK PALACE PRESIDENT FLEES Executive Takes Refuge French Legation After Two Hours of Fighting. in PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti, July 27.— The revolutionary movement against President Guillaume, which broke out under the leadership of Dr. Rosalvo Bobo, last March, showed itself in Port- au-Prince today. After several hours of fighting at the presidential residence where Guillaume made a courageous defense against the revolutionists, the President took ref- uge in the French legation, whither he had been preceded by fhe members of his family. The palace was on fire before Guil- laume decided to flee. Rebellious troops of the Government attacked the palace at 4 o'clock and continued firing on it for two hours. The President was sup- ported by a few loyal troops. Gen. Oscar, Governor of Port-au-Prince, con- tinued his resistance at the palace even after Guillaume had left it but later took refuge in the Dominician legation. Included among the victims of this at- tack on the presidential residence was the Chief of Police of Port-au-Prince. By noon the city was in the possession of the revolutionists. The movement was started by a regi- ment of soldiers who had been disband- ed by President Guillaume and who re- sented this treatment. There has been a reign of terror:in Port-au-Prince for the last 10 days. On July 17 President Guillaume, doubtless realizing that his fall was a question of a few days, started on a series of per- secutions. He caused the arrest of Hai- tiens of wealth or position and began expelling all foreigners/ He apparently recognized the fact that the spirit of revolution was grow- ing in the country, and he knew that the rebels were marching on the cap- ital. Haitien women have been arrested on the streets and taken away to prison. On July 17 a French actress, Madams Taldy, was treaten in this arbitrary manner. The prisons of the city are full and the conditions in them are do- plorable. Prisoners die daily as a result of hun- ger and the uneganitary conditions in which they are compelled to live. PRESIDENT SAID TO PLAN FINAL PLEA FOR PEACE IN MEXICO Failing, It Is Believed He Will Cause Government to Be Formed Which U. 8. Can Recognize. WASHINGTON, July 27.—Official. an- nouncement that the United States Gov- ernment would make a definite move soon to solve the Mexican problem led to some speculation here today as to what course would be pursued. The an- nouncement did not reveal the nature of the action planned. President Wilson has been giving close study to the Mexican situation, particu- larly since the heads of the warring fac- tions have failed to heed his warning to settle their differentes. The most prob- able step, it is said, will be to make a final plea to Gen. Carranza to confer with leaders of other factions in an ef- fort to restore peace. Failing in this, conferences of other Mexican chiefs would be urged. A Government formed by them might be recognized by the United States and aid given to main- tain it.

TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 27, 1915. a ttt _——_—— NEUTRALITY’ BODY FAILS 10. OBTAIN SPEAKERS OF NUTE — Invitations to Address Anti-War Demonstration at Delmar Gar- den Generally Declined. The invitations by the “American Neutrality League,” which protests against the shipments of war muni- tions to the anti-Germanic allies, to speakers of national reputation to deliver addresses at the anti-war da: demonstration at Delmar Garden Saturday, have been generally de- clined. Among the national celebrities an- nounced at various times as having been invited to speak were President Wilson, former Secretary of State Bryan, Speaker Champ Clark, United States Senator Stone, Jane Acdams of Hull House, Chicago, and Mayor William Hale Thompson of Chicago. President Wilson, through Secre- tary Tumulty, sent this response to the invitation of the league, ad- dressed to John C, Meyers, who has charge of the Delmar Garden dem- onstration: The President asks me to ack- nowledge the receipt of your tele- gram, and to sav that, while your courtesy is appreciated, he feels that it would not be proper, nor is it pos- sible, for him to attend the meeting in question. Mayor Kiel also declined the invita- tion. His secretary, Harry M. Crutcher, sent a note expressing the thanks vf the Mayor, and adding that it would be impossible for him to be present. Meyers expressed surprise that Maycr Kiel declined the invitation. Mayor Kiel said this morning that the invita- tion came in with a lot of others, and that his secretary told him he was booked to spend Saturday afternoon celebrating the opening of the Tower Grove viaduct. At that time, the Mayor said, he did not know the celebration was to be both in the afternoon an‘ evening. “I think I shall go out Sat- urday evening,’ the Mayor said. ‘‘! am too much of a German to do any- thing to offend the Germans.”’ Sryan’s Price Too High. At the office of the ‘“‘American Neu- trality League,” in the Planters Hotel this morning, a Post-Dispatch reporter was told that it was quite certain that Frank P. Walsh of Kansas City, chair- man of the Federal Commission on In- Relations, and Prof. Eugene vitations. Prof. Kuehneman spoke at the City The officials of the league declared Several efforts have Bryan, it was learned, wanted $500 and 50 per cent of the gate receipts. It was also stated by an official of the league that some of the big German advertisers refused to take space in the program if Bryan should be one of the speakers. The league has not decided whether it will charge an admission fee. A 10 cent charge for admission to the grounds has been discussed, but the league officials say they hope to make ar- rangements by which admission will be free. While discussing its anti-war day demonstration at the meeting last night, the league digressed long enough to appoint a committee to make an in- vestigation of the manufacture of war supplies in St. Louis. Albert von Hoffman introduced a reso- lution demanding an investigation of the charters of all St. Louis corpora- tions manufacturing war supplies. A committee consisting of Von Hoffman, Kort von Ruppert and Hans Wulff was appointed to obtain copies of the char- ters of the corporations from the Secre- tary of State to ascertain whether the corporations had the right to manufac- ture supplies to be used for war pur- poses. Favored Censorship on Svneeches. While the discussion of speakers was under way, Von Reppert made a speech insisting that the league should contro} the utterances of speakers. Nobody ought to be permitted to discuss any subject without the full approval of the league, he sald. He insisted that if Speaker Clark should come to make a speech, he must not say anything not in harmony with the objects of the league, one of the principal objects be- ing to prevent the exportation of arms to the enemies of Germany. A Post- Dispatch reporter was told that the other members of the organization did not back up Von Reppert in his stand, and no action was taken toward cen- soring the speeches to be delivered.

Ever since the appointment of Thomas H. Rogers as chairman of the board, certain politicians are alleged to have been making an effort to “get his scalp.’"’. At the city hall today it was said that the Efficiency Board had evi- dence that these politicians had been trying to create the impression that the examination for Warden would not b2 based on the merits of the applicants, and that a list of the questions to be asked had been given to Walker in ad- vance of the examination. Genuine List of Questions. Rogers today said he had heard of this plot to discredit the board. To off- set it he gave to the reporters at the city hall a list of the questions to be asked at the examination. This was done after the candidates had all been assembled in the examination room andl there was no chance that they could see the questions. The plot, as told about at the city hall, involved the preparation of a “rnony” list of questions to be asked nt the examination. It was said that this list was taken to a morning newepaper office and submitted for publication as being a list which had been given to Walker so that he m‘gil prepare in advance for the ex- amination About the same time politicians, using another morning newspaper as their’ medium, circu- lated story that Walker had already been selected to succeed Troll and nene of the other candidates would have a chance. Rogers today told a Post-Dispatch re- porter that despite the plot to discredit the board the action of the politicians would not be permitted to injure any- one’s chances in the examination. How Walker May Be Named. “If Walker is among the three who have the highest percentage,’’ Rogers said, “his standing will be so reported by the board.”’ The appointment of a jail Warden will he made by Public Welfare Commission- er Tolkacz after the Efficiency Board reports to him the result of the exami- ration. Tolkacz today said he would -ppoint Walker in case Walker’s name chould be among the three having the highest percentages. “T will appoint Walker because I have known him a long time and think him fully qualified for the place,”’ said Tol- kacz. ‘‘He will be my selection if he is among the first three.” Residence Destroyed by Fire.

The last Congress authorized twice as many submarines as any previous Congress snd also authorized the building of three sea-going subma- rines larger than any nation has yet constructed. We are building one submarine in the navy yard at Ports- mouth, N. H., and are securing com- petition between Government plants and private construction companies. We are expecting to get better bat- teries. Two have already been or- dered from Edison and will be short- ly installed, one in an old and one in a new submarine. Naval experts and civilians are trying to improve the motors, which are now difficult to obtain. We are planning for new submarine bases ashore and for new tenders for submarines. The perfec- tion of the submarine and the con- struction of a larger number of addi- tional ones may be said to be receiv- ing most earnest consideration by naval experts and naval statesmen. 2. The European war has em- phasized the walue of aircraft as a maval aid. The last Congress recognized the importance of air- craft and gave us $1,000,000 to begin a fleet of scouts in the air. We have estuilished at the abandoned navy yard at Pensacola an aeroplane sta- tion with school for instructions, shonps to repair machines, and the construction officers will soon have completed the plans for the construc- tion of our aeroplanes at Pensacola.

The need of fast cruisers has been emphasized, The gen- eral board and construction officers are now busy discussing the char- acter of fast cruisers and battle cruisers. Our policy in the nhavy hitherto has been to sacrifice speed to armor and guns. Now we see the need of, if necessary, sacrificing armor to speed. We must have ships that in heavy seas can make # kno.a. The types are yet to be de- termined upon. These are the big things the big war had «mphasized as the immedi- ate need in our naval program. Have we need to change our policy as to torpedo destroyers and dreadnoughts and armorf These are matters our ablest ex- perts at aome and abroad are study- ing and discussing. The general board is holding daily sessions dis- cussing these and other naval prob- lems. The number of additional of-— ficers and men is under considera- tion.

NASH 0 BE PLACED IN Mayor and Other Officials Sus. pended Pending Outcome oc" Ouster Proceedings. NASHVILLE, July 77.—Chan- cellor John Allison this morning placed Tenn, Nashville into the hands of a receiver, appointing Clerk Master Robert Vaughn to take charge of all business affairs of vhe city. A few minutes later Judge Thomas EB. Matthews of the Circuit Court suspend- ed Mayor Howse, Robert Elliott, Céme- missioner cf Water Works; Lyle An- drews, Commissioner of Finance, and Treasurer Myers. Andrews had already been removed by the City Commission and his sticcessor, Park Marshall, ap pointed, but there has been some ques- tion as to the legality of his removal. The suspension of these officials is to last until the final disposition of pro- and ouster law. These developments are the outcome of the discovery several months ago that a large number of city books had been destroyed, the discovery being made on the eve of a general city audit brought about by the insistent de- mancs of the citizens. _ Assistant City Treasurer Gone. rhe exposure or the scandal resuiting in the municipal receivership arose from the fact that the Assistant City Treas- urer, J. B. Vest Jr., did not return from his annual vacation and was reported to have fled to Australia or new Zea- land. His accounts were examined oy auditors, who found that the city’s books for 1911, 1912 and part of 1913 were missing or mutilated. . Howse attempted to remove Comptroller that he was responsible for the theft and mutilation of the books. Burns re- plied with a bill in chancery charging that “City Finance Commissioner An- drews had made an expensive campaign with the connivance of Agsistant Treas- urer West."”" Burns and Andrews were both indicted for larceny of the city records, and gave bond to answer tn the criminal courts. Burns’ answer to the indictment against himself was to file a petition in the Chancery Court asking that a re-) ceiver be: appointed for the city, and it was this petition which was granted today. He also caused the arrest of City Treasurer Myers on a charge of fraudulent appropriation of the public money. Governed by Commission. Nashville has been under the commis- sion form of government, but since the ces, Safety, Committee whose auditors precipitated the crisis by their investigation of the records. It is said that the sums lost to the ¢itv: are not large, and that they will probably the officials in question. The appoint- inent of receivers was not altogether ex- pected, as Nashville is said today to good credit, which enabled it a month premium. This is the second time Nashville has been in receivership, the first having ov- curred fn 1869.

LUCILLE F SCHULHERR Substantial reinforcement of the Post- Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund is looked for from the benefit this evening at the Ariel Airdome, 88% Mor- gan street. The benefit will be a prac- tical manifestation of sympathy for the poor and ailing babies on the part of 16 boys and girls and Mrs. W. F. Gradolph. These children and Mrs. Gradoiph have been iIndustriously engaged for some weeks in arranging detalis of the affair This will be the second benefit given "for the babies by these ohildren thig season, and the program shows the re- sult of the experience and enthusiasm obtained from continued work in the cause. The feature to which all of those engaged point with especial grati- fication is the march with figures spell- ing “P.-D. Pure Milk and Ice Fund,” a clever device, artistically developed There are many other features, such as solo and choral singing, solo and en- semble dancing, with fancy and fig spe- MAMIE. _ WHILT. sd ROSALIE and.

Bazar Promises Results. Another affair that promises a hand- some addition to the fund is the bazar to. be given at 6800 Delmar boulevard by a number of girls and boys residinz in University City. They also have been working assiduously and _ intelli- gently for several days, organizing the varied features by which the benefit en- tertainment is to be marked. There will be booths devoted to varying money-raising activities, with sales of seasonable refreshments. The children are all popular in that section of the city and have the cordial co-operation of their parents and grown-up friends, so that the event is quite likely to prove notable both from the standpoint of pleasure and benefit for the poor babies. Dedication of the Tower Grove via- duct Saturday, which will prove a big event in that section of the city, has suggested to John Weber and Mike Kitchell, two grown-ups, an opportunity for manifesting interest in the Post. Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund in a substantial manner. Weber and Kitchell have arranged to market va- rious kinds of refreshments, day and evening, all the proceeds to be contrib- uted to the cause of the poor babies. Contributions of articles to be thus dis- posed of have been made by the Man- ewal Bread Co., Tinker’s Dairy, Pola- Wave Ice Co. and Louis Fazzo, and stands for the marketing of them hav- been arranged to be set up at Tower Grove and Hunt avenues. Vaudeville Shows Nets $19. A vaudeville show at the home of Al- bertina Goessling, $27 Maryville avenue, realized $19 for the Fund. Among the many features was a playlet entitled, ‘Sleeping Beauty,” wherein Martha Timberlake and Dumont Dempsey starred. Another was ‘“‘The Goddess of Liberty,’’ in which Albertina Goessling was the goddess. In addition to these there were singing, dancing, :nstrumen- tal music, and recitations, all of the children doing their work well, having been skilifully trained by Miss Margaret Goessling. Those who took part in the entertain- ment are: Eileen and Glennon Grady, Hamilton and Suburban tracks; Dorothy and Yandall Johnson, 923 Maryville av- enue; Albertina, Herman Jr., and Greg- ory Goessling, 927 Maryville avenue; Martha, Virginia and Billie Timber- lake, 988 Maryville; Dumont and Tom Dempsey, Maple and Hamilton avenues; Harry Kramer, Maple and Hamilton avenues; William Lacy, 5590 Maple av- enue, and Freddy Bell, 943 Maryville avenue. The spirit of progress was admirably displayed by 18 young foitk who held a carnival and lawn festival at the home of Mrs. Hester, 1410 North Euclid ave- nue. This is the third consecutive year these children have engaged in relief work for the babies. The first year their efforts brought $7; last year they earned about $12, and this year they raised $13. There were many features of strik- ing interest in the recent festival, all of which were received with enthusi- asm. Those who took part are Jean Wells, Anna Hester, Grace Teller, Mar- yaret Hester, Edith Cox, Cora Blair, Dorothy McPrerson, Ada Solomon, Bil- ly Sherman, Emmett Bertz, Elmer Lutz, George de Lona and James Mc- Gollif, - Ohildren Give Penny Show. Six little girls and one boy worked ardently for a week prior to the pro- duction of their penny show, which was held at the home of Cecelia Barry, 1717 Coleman street. The performance net- ted $2.81 for the benefit of the babies. It consisted of several splendid features, among them playlets entitled ‘‘Cinder- ella,” “The Irish Family,’ “Grandma” and “Don’t Take My Loving Boy Away.” There also were songs, dances and recitations. Those who participated in the affair aro Cecelia Barry, 1717 Coleman ttreet; Lucille and Elizabeth Smith, 1715 Coleman street; Helen Foley 1723 Glasgow place: Nora Rabbit, 1718 Coleman; Kathryn Morard, 1717A Cole- man, and Joseph Murphy, 1721 Coleman.

Cornelia’s father is an officer, and his™~duties take him through the tenement district, where the tots of the poor are given their milk each day Schuermann came home one evening and told of the tragedy of these little children. This recital stirred Cornelia and she began to work. - She will not stop with the amount she has turned in, but already plans are under way fox a second enterprise for the benefit of the fund.

His execution has been postponed until Friday merning, July 30, by Deputy Warden Charles H. Johnson of the State Prison, in compliance with a for- mal request by Supreme Court Justice John Ford. Justice Ford, after an all-day hearing on the question whether Becker should get a new trial (his third) on the ground of recently discovered evidence, said he would like a reasonabie timé in which to make up his mind. The probabllities are that Justice Ford will not reach a de- cision until tomorrow, or possibly Thurs- day morning.

Fancy FORCE 47 YEARS, DIES He Was Captain of Old Carr Street District When It Was Known as “Bloody Third.” The death at St. John’s Hospital last night of Sergt. Peter Joyce ended the career of the oldest man, in point of service, in the Police Department. He was 76 years old and joined the depart- ment 47 years ago. For many years Joyce was a Captain. He commanded the old Carr Street Dis- trict, which, in his time, was known as the ‘“‘Bloody Third.’’ Later he presided | = over the Laclede Avenue District and was in charge there when the ‘‘Bottoms Gang’ was active. In 1907 Joyce resigned at the request of the Folk Police Board, the members of which considered him too old for active service. He was re-|= nstated as a patrolman a week later % and in a few months was promoted to | m@ the rank of Sergeant. Joye served as desk sergeant in the Mounted District until July 5, when he suffered a nervous collapse. Three days later he was removed to the hos- pital. In the Civil War Joyce com- manded an artillery battery. His wife died several years ago. His son, Richard voyce, is a Detective Sergeant.

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH Italy in War Being Discounte Inez Mifholfand Says Task Is Big to Keep From |AmongPowers By Inez Milholland Boissevain. (Copyright, 1915. by The New York Tribune.)

Granted the war is its inevitable sequence. is old.

Alternatives, like peace tribunals, ar- arrangements, or adjudica- tion of any sort other than war, are mostly a matter of individual enter- prise, and as such have no prestige of the sort that only natural and officia! indorsement is able to give.

War Seems Natural.

ALL DEALERS M. W. WARREN COKE COMPANY, Distributers. Per Ton $5.7 SAVER. TakKe the GUESS Out— Your FUTURE is Safe if you ere a THIRD NATIONAL who would combat the fury and stu- | pidity of war. Education, private ani public (that is, of the sort derived from the establishment of public institutions like an international parliament), is the only way to accomplish such a task. But war has already prepared the soil for the reception cf new seed; people are asking wny? to what end this waste and bloodiness? Peopie who never be- fore asked. Resentment that is as yet inarticulate is to be found in the breasts of all. Your Government-launched program for peace and mediation without armis- tice will evoke a response incalculable; will give hope to the peoples on earth who are now struggling blindly through a desert of hate, despair, bewilderment and agony; to peoples who as yet do not know they are in need of hope. Perhaps the most that they ask for is to be let aione, to do the business of hfe in peace—to live, to love, to die. Faith and vision and will are needed— and remen.brances of past triumphs of human institutions over habits that are brutish. What we will, we shall have. There is no rower in heaven or on earth strone enough to combat the force of our aggregate will. Italy Is Frank. But things being as they are, Italy, like the other nations, was swept into the current of hate, of violence and greed. For war admits all the hideous qualities and actions that ir civilized life we repvdiate. Only, unlike the other nations who have put forward one high-sounding excuse after another, Italy frankly admits that she is in the business of war for what shs3 can get out of it. Speaking from the current national and patriotic viewpoint, Italy had more “right” to war—if an inter- ested party to a dispute may be consid- ered us judge of the right or wrong of the dispute—than any other nation, ex- cept, perhaps, Germany. Italy had certain national prestige to maintain; that prestige was a thing de- termined not by internal development, but by capacity for external aggressive action according to present international standards. Without capacity for such aggressive action for the sake of ‘‘hold- ing her owr” a nation believes that her development, internal and external, is checked. Perhaps she is right, but other ways of “holding one’s own"’ have been devised and accepted. Howbeit, na- tional vanity is played upon and the be- lief in one’s “‘country'’s honor’’ comes to be sacred and second only to a belief in God. This is one of the causes of war. Italy, I do not doubt, believed that her integrity as a nation was threatened unless she swung into line. To begin with, she spoke, with excellent sense I thought, of neutrality. And I remem- bered how, in America at that time, we looked to her with eyes of admira- tion. Italy had a great role to play here in the heart of Europe—a role that we might play in the United tSates if we keep our heads and tempers. But Italy was not yet ready to play that role. So Italy went to war. Nom- inally because she had been flouted by Austria, actually because, having broken with Germany and Austria, she had nothing to hope for from France and Russia and England unless she al- lied herself with them. And she saw herself in the future, a nation dis- counted among the Powers. Pledged to Stay to End. In such a position she had no hope when the time came for dividing up booty of obtaining her share, and she particularly insists upon a share in Asia Minor. She had nothing to expect from Germany. And England guaran- teed nothing—not even Trentino and Trieste—unless she joined the alliance. So Italy joined. The terms of the alliance are, of course, unknown, but it is understood that Italy. is pledged to stay in till the end of the war, to make no separate peace and to send troops to the Darda- nelles. Such terms sound prooable, and —God help Italy. I believe she has un- dertaken much more than she can manage. Her resources will not permit of it. She is still feeling the effects of her war in Tripoli, for one thing; the crops are not what was expected, for another; the general poverty is appall- ing. But more important, I believe, than all else is this fact. Granted that Italy swung into war with enthusiasm (though to my mind the demonstrations that passed for enthusiastic had more of shysteria than spontaneity about them), will such enthusiasm last when the people who respond now to the war ery ‘Trieste and Trentino” realize that Trieste and Trentino is but the begin- ning of Italian operations and not the end? Those whom this business of war :s able to threw into a state of ecstatic fervor are stimulated thereto by the cry of “nationality” or the “liberation of the shackled people in the north’’—a libera- tion that has been dreamed and hymned. But when this liberation is achieved (and, tncidentally, it is being considerably delayed, for by now the Italians had counted on being in Tri- este, and they are not), what is to in- flame these souls who delight in war? People Will Lose Enthusiasm. Then, when the pinch of war is felt, when disease spreads and winter comes. when Austrian domination is thrown off, what enthusiasm will remain to fight the battles of England and of rance—nations for whom no love is lost in the best of times? For the ulti- mate advantages, if any, of Italy’s al- luance are too remote for appreciation by a people who believe that they march to battle with the cry of an enslaved brother in their ears and for whom the results, prophesied and actual, must be immediate. No, I am inclined to think that Ital- fans will resent their obligations to the allies; that they will feel cheated and exploited; inasmuch as the thing they believe they are fighting for is not all that will be required of them. Italy is sanguine now, but the wounded have hot begun to come in. We hear that Italian losses are heavy. Whatever else may be, there is no at- tempt to deceive the people by accounts of exaggerated victories or minimized losses. The King is in the midst of the op- erations. To a greater extent even than ie supposed. He is reported to have been nearly killed by an exploding shell; he saved himself by throwing himself on the ground—face down. A Colonel who stood next to him was killed. Very naturally his conduct at the front, his participation in the dally life and dangers of his soldiers has inspired the utmost enthusiasm, con- fidence and devotion. And I must say, it seems thoroughly deserved. The gallantry of the troops in the 7 * : Or as Ta itn pane eee a here. We are told that they are ere | sistible. Such tales are still able to bring tears of patriotic fervor to the eyes of mothers whose sons are gone. What is the unholy power of this war sentiment that makes natural and ma- ternal instincts sink into insignifi- cance? Yesterday I was told of a mother whose three sons were refused as volunteers because of physical dis- abilities. She went with them to a doc- tor. He observed that at such a time the disabilities must be a matter of congratulation. She turned on him like a fury. ‘“‘Congratulation—no, of hu- mililation. What have I to offer to my country?” I could have told her of many services she might have rendered —one of which might have been to pro- duce healthy children—for herself and others. But service is still determined by blood and danger and sacrifice, and the service of him who “stands and waits’”’ seems too tame a thing for any but a poet or a lover of mankind. Meanwhile the anxiety is growing in the eyes of those who fearfully ask for news of loved ones that are gone. I wait with a sort of terror for the mo- ment when this anxiety will deepen into a clamor! It js the first ugly aftermath of war. —_ . ee —- el —— Films to Us _It saves you waiting until you reach home, or having them de- veloped in an inferior manner.

His automobile struck Owen, started across Broadway from the east curb. Owen was knocked down and in- jured internally. The ‘taking of testi- mony was begun by the Coroner last Thursday, and was continued until to- day to give Falzone an opportunity to make a statement. His attorney report- ed this morning that he was out of the city and that it had been impossible to reach him in time for him to appear today. Finding to Be Sent to Police. Tratfic Officer Schweider testified that a statement in the police report that Owen said the accident was unavoidable was r.ot correct. He said that Owen had asked him to obtain the name and ad- dress of the driver of the automobile. He said the police stenographer, in type- writing the report, had made the error.

JOSEPH PULITZER. April 10, 1907. Post-Dispatch Circulation First 6 Months, 1915: a 350,066 204,479 Daily Average Equaled Only by FOUR SUNDAY Newspapers in the UNITED STATES —_— - sr | ee = LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE The Poor Persecuted Bakers. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. From the beginning of time bakers have been the victims of attacks (nearly all unjust) by both irresponsible parties afflicted with a deep-seated “grouch,” or by officials who take spasms in “serving the public,” aided by our valuable and unprejudiced (7) newspapers. Just at present a howl is going up about the decreased weight of bread, and it seems tNat some of our “public-serving” officials have laid the blame purely on the so-called “Bread Trust,” and forthwith proceeded to have a spasm. Isn't a 100 per cent increase in flour prices a just reason for a 15 to 20 per cent increase in bread prices, or a correspondingly decrease in weight? Do the butchers, grocers or shoemen keep down the prices when the price to them is increased? By no means, and the public says noth- ing until we bakers try to take what is coming to us, and then there is h ! Whose fault is it that the bread is higher? In the first place, the farmers have been holding their wheat for “war prices” and naturally the millers had to raise the price of flour. And yet the baker is expected to give as much for 5 cents when flour is $7.50 a barrel as he does when it is $4.60. Justice—nit! | Secondly, the public demands fresh bread, which means (to a majority) that it must still be warm and at the longest, only a few hours old. The result of this is, that many loaves are re- turned to the bakers as stale that are perfectly good and more wholesome than hot bread, and, as the bakers cannot afford this loss, the con- sumers suffer, as usual, by having smaller bread. The alleged “Bread Trust” is supposed to be operating in restraint of trade, and of bettering their profits. Well, what of .it? I, for one, think that the rest of the bakers in St. Louis should be glad that they did better their profits, be- cause, with their greater buying facilities, they could have put a much larger and better loave on the market and then—bingo!—where would we smaller bakers be? And as for restraining trade— ha! ha! The public don't have to eat their bread and neither do the grocers have to handle it. . In my humble opinion, this case will be a joke— & joke on some of our zealous officials and the _ SMALL BAKER. Go Ahead, Mr. Webster! To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. ' In “Letters to the People” Sheridan Webster . Writes he can find employment for the unem- loyed. I being one of them, would like to be informed as to how it can be done. L. J. W. Disorder at Park Concerts. To the Vditor of the Post-Dispatch _ Atan expenst of something more than $100 each, the city of St, Louis provides free band concerts for her citizens. It is but reasonable to believe 9g the authorities in charge of our parks will ee that proper order is kept, so that those who Attend to enjoy the music may not have their peace disturbed. This, however, is not the case. The largest crowd of the season gathered at Lafayette Park last Friday night to hear Prof. oepping’s band. The noise and confusion was so Free that even Prof. Poepping was disturbed. If few city policemen could be detailed to preserve order at these concerts in the place of inefficient park guards, it would add to the enjoyment and would show that those in authority were perform- ing their duty to the public. Lafayette Park seems to be a center of disturbance and it is claimed by those who frequent it that a clean sweep of those in charge would prove beneficial. “CITIZEN.” **Prosperity.’’ To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The wise men say that we will not have good times until Wilson and the Democratic party are ousted from office and the Republicans reinstated. The Democrats have been playing itn hard luck for a good many years—reaping the harvest of bad _ acts sown by Republicans. It was so with Cleve- land—it is #0 with Wilson. It is a very sad capitalistic system we have. Vigus, Mo. SIDNEY AVERILL Standard Oil’s Philanthropy. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Today's Globe-Democrat’s article on the subject of the price of gasoline being much cheaper be- cause they have discovered a process of making a larger amount of gasoline from a gallon of crude oil is rather amusing. Why is it that they are sell- ing gasoline in Philadelphia at 13 cents a gallon and here in St. Louls at 9 cents? Philadelphia is very near Bayonne, where their refineries are. The truth is, that they have the field all their own in Philadelphia and here they are trying to freeze out the small dealer. ONE OF THE DEALERS. LIVES SACRIFICED FOR DOLLARS. Assistant State’s Attorney E. J. Raber, who has questioned 100 members of the crew and other witnesses in the Eastland disaster is quoted as saying: “The Eastland was overcrowded. Of that I am convinced from stories told me. It was that overcrowding which caused the tragedy.” A letter from a well-known naval architect, written to the United States Harbor Inspector at Chicago, will be part of the evidence in the in- vestigation. It stated that the Eastland was a dangerous boat, and that the fact was well known. By all the laws of ste:@ boat construc- tion, she should have had a 4(i@h keel. She had no keel at all. Another probable factor in the disaster was that the boat had been constructed for lake traf- fic. But, when brought into the shallow Chicago River, she had to be lightened of her water bal- last, thus making her topheavy. Owners and inspectors must have been aware that this was a menace to passengers and crew. The La Follette shipping law, about which Secretary Redfield had written the EHastland’s owners, does not become effective until November. But the correspondence is significant as showing that the owners placed dollars above human life. They were unwilling to comply with that law because to do so would have cut down profits. The correspondence shows their attitude regard- ing public safety. With the various investigations as to the causes and responsibility for this shocking disaster, it is to be hoped not only that the guilt will be fixed where it belongs, but that a warning will be felt by shipping interests generally as to the | advisability of stopping their campaign against Ithe “safety-first” provisions of the La Follette : seaman’s law. It should be understood, and en- forced by the authorities, that human life is the . first consideration in all fields of commerce and industry. he > Lin A — Will there be any diplomatic poultice for the affair of the torpedoed flax cargo? i i i i A A VICTORY FOR GOLF. At Glen Echo two forces clashed. In the last ‘|analysis it was golf versus a rank, but harmless \fassumption which sometimes grows on golf courses and like weeds threatens to take the dem- ocratic fair greens. For want of a better name, the assumption ig called Social Position. Thack- eray had a harsh name for it. Though rank, it ie essentially delicate and defenseless. The min- ute you talk about it, argue or contend for it, you destroy it. On the other hand, golf is a healthy, powerful thing, before which pretense, innocent and otherwise, must go down when the issue is raised. On beha?f of Golf as opposed to the Other Thing, Mr. Lambert, good sportsman, appears to have forced a satisfactory compromise, an offer of res- toration and rehabilitation. The “freeze-out” is declared off. The truth is nobly vindicated that there are no distinctions between honest golfers except as to good and bad, which is the only distinction after all that can obtain under a free republic, in which all men are equal. ip, Ae — -~ bal A There have been many assaults on the seaman’s law, but the Eastland disaster may be a Waterloo for its assailants. = ] * ——_ DARWIN’S ADVICE ON MARRIAGE. Most young people respect Charles Darwin, if they know anything about him, as one of the world’s greatest leaders in modern scientific prog- ress. And it may be that some of them have been told that he was atheistical in his leanings and hence an unsafe guide in moral and domestic relations. Here is a delightful excerpt from his “Family Letters,” collected by his daughter and just published in England. The quotation is headed ‘“‘Notes on Matrimony.” As to this institu- tion, he wrote: Among the advantages are: “Children (if it please God)—constant companion (and friend in old age)—charms of music, and fe- male chit-chat.” Among the disadvantages: “Terrible loss of time; if many children, forced to gain one’s bread; fighting about no society.” But, he continues, “What is the use of work- ing without sympathy from near and dear friends? Who are near and dear friends to the old, except relatives?” And his conclusion is: “My God, it is intolerable to think of spending one’s whole life like a neuter bee— working, working, and nothing after all. No, no; won't do. Imagine living all one’s days solitarily in a smoky, dirty London house. Only picture to yourself a nice soft wife on a sofa, with good fire and book, and music perhaps; compare this vision with the dingy reality of St. Marlboro’ street. Marry, marry, marry. It is pleasant to know that Charles Darwin car- ried out his own advice, with the happiest results. His wife was a remarkable woman and ‘his chil- dren worthy of such parents. = ™ _ A Kentucky statesman says that “a sucker is born every minute and that many grow up and become voters.” Is it because women have nour- ished these that a woman is supposed to be un- fitted for the ballot? =~ ww Ss AMERICAN MILITARY FORCES. That President Wilson has directed the Secre- taries of War and of the Navy to report to him a co-ordinated program of national defense is good news. We suffer at the moment from too much thun- der and shouting of self-constituted captains. The military specialists are working at cross-pur- poses. The people are subjected to a bombard- ment of militant notions which confuse all and revolt the many who are devoted to our free in- stitutions, and are opposed to and afraid of militarism. This is a situation which needs to be taken in hand and ironed out by the intelligence and pa- triotic leadership of the nation. President Wilson is the man to assume the active supreme direction in this work. His office dictates it. His mental and spiritual qualities admirably equip him. No man of our time is more closely informed of American history, no man more hostile to milli- tarism, no man more devoted to the traditions and principles and what should be the service to mankind and the destiny of the American nation. We are not to settle this matter in terms of huge money expenditures. We are not to settle ‘ it on any principle of preparedness for offensive | campaigning. It is a Mefensive preparedness we are after. For the navy we must hew to the line of superior efficiency and not superior cost and bigness. For the army we must go back to the Constitution and “a well-regulated militia” is the best “security of a free state’—the best security against the insidious internal aggression of a great standing army as well as against aggres- sions from without. f i The ‘statistician who has found that disasters have killed more people jhan the wars, will find encouragement in the Edstiand details. = = * a a THAT USHER BRAY. The Post-Dispatch, which declares the story of a secret convention (between the United States and Great Britain) to be an ill-meant calumny, is the paper which, through its pub- lication of the Usher article, gave this cal- umny its widest circulation. But Usher its against Germany—which alters the case.— Translation of an editorial in today’s West- liche Post. The Post-Dispatch printed the Usher state- ment, which was used by German and American 'pro-German writers to discredit the Government of the United States, for the purpose of exposing its absurdity. to correct false impressions that might be caused by Prof. Usher’s silly utterances, the Post-Dis- patch said in part: To make such a charge betrays abysmal ig- norance of our system of government, The impossibility of such an arrangement would be exposed if Mr. Usher would try to name the authority that assumed to represent the United States in consenting to it. * * * An unwritten foreign treaty is a contradic- tion of terms, and would be worth about as much as the breath required to speak of it. A secret, unwritten alliance between the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and a President of the United States could not have the ratification of the Senate and would pos- sess exactly the value and binding force of a secret, unwritten alliance between the United Kingdom eof Great Britain and Ireland and John Jones of the Fifth Ward and no more. That the wild ass’s colt which first emitted this Pray was American does not mitigate the offense of those disloyal Americans who repeat it with the deliberate intention of discrediting their Government and dividing the American people in a grave crisis when the nation’s sov- ereignty and rights are assailed. = — SS = MR.

It is true at times he has commercialized his words, but his charities have far exceeded his sales. —EEE = = ‘ a a Se Should all St. Louis County join St. Louis, that old, old query, “What county is St. Louis in?” would still bob up every week in every part of the United States. = = i i BRITISH NAVAL PRESTIGE. Britannia still rules the waves, but with a dif- ference—explains. the eminent British naval writer, Fred T. Jane. The best case that this special pleader can make out of the record of a year’s warfare is a negative one. ‘An explana- tion of apparent failure’ shows that England has exerted the “silent pressure of sea power” de- fensively only; not in conquest or aggression. Mr. Jane reminds the world that the British navy has “saved” England—which emphasizes its loss of world prestige. In the past it has stood for something more than the defensive salvation of the insular realm. Mr. Jane reminds us that the navy protected the transporting of troops to the Continent at the crucial moment of France's peril. And the further item that Germany's heavy fighting craft are bottled in the Kiel canal remains to its credit. To its discredit we per- ceive a long list of sunken fighting craft. Nothing decisive, not even a considerable en- gagement in the way of a test, has occurred. But one big fact of the naval year stands out despite England’s exertion of that ‘silent pressure of sea power;” a fact so glaring that no explanations or apologies can possibly obscure it; a momentous result that seems to stand above England’s main- tenance of the food blockade, and to rise above the fact that the bulk of England’s fighting ton- nage remains afloat—and that is that German submarine warfare has largely punctured British naval prestige. In the matter of naval prestige alone, Germany has gained what Britain has lost. Prestige will not decide the war. Prestige not based on actual fighting ability serves an end only in time of peace. “When the true history of this war comes to be written,” declares the English naval authority, “] think it will become clear that the British navy recognized at the outset the ultra-cleverness of the brain which planned the ‘submarine block- ade.’ , It acted accordingly, and so the ‘subma- rine blockade’ has been a failure.” But as yet the world has heard only of sub- marine success; the actual defeat of the subma- rines remains to be shown. = =] * — The German 2-cent meal that appeases the most ravenous hunger may be a godsend to Europe, in the pard times after the war. = = * i i A MOTHER’S RIGHTS IN MISSOURI. Attention of the Post-Dispatch has been called to a recent law, passed in 1913, amending the “Natural guardianship of Minors” statute, and making the mother of minor children an equal guardian of such children. Under this amended statute the father has no authority, without the mother’s consent, to deprive her of their care and-custody. And vice versa. Both parents are “natural guardians,” with equal rights and duties, and Missouri is in line with other progressive states that have such laws. The Post-Dispatch is glad to call the attention of Missouri mothers to this just law. , , ~ j —_—_- —_— = wes] ——* In one of several editorials, printed | G Fete - 2a." 2 ~~ Sg 2+ “ s~,* - o4 FP > .

Thus do we pay for our ig- norance; not in one thing, but in all. This is a sad life, my friends. We grope in darkness, and suffer consequences of not knowing every day of our lives.

AOW’S that garding of yourn, Mr. Rochester?” inquired John Roch- ester’s neighbor, surveying the little strip of spaded ground over the fence. ‘‘Waal, I swan! Coming up, aln’t it?” “It’s mighty slow,” said John Roches- ter impatiently. The old man tugged at his goatee re- , flectively. “I dunno,’’ he said. ‘Planted i” those two feverish months. it two weeks ago, didn’t you, Mr. Roch- ester? You got to wait and have pa- tlence, you know. They say all things comes raound to him who knows haow to wait." He stalked away over the New En- giand flats, leaving John Rochester standing moodily in his little garden strip beside the tumble-down colonial house he occupied alone. The proverb came home to him with bitterness. All things come to him who waits! He remembered Lesbia's despair- ing cry that morning when he last saw her: “But you waited too long, John! You should have told me years ago!” John Rochester had inherited a little money from his father, the bulk going to his younger brother, who displayed that business aptitude which he had r.ever possessed. John was nothing but an author. He never aimed at anything but the scribbler’s trade, but he had that fatal fire which cannot be /yenched, though it can be dampened. or 15 years he had toiled, struggling win fame and achieve success. At 30 a little spurt of popularity with his stories had enabled him to turn to novels. But here he failed dismally. The critics roasted him unmercifully. They condemned the very qualities which John aimed to put into his book tu please the public. ‘The Sale of His Soul. OR at 30 he had suddenly grown wordly wise. Lesdia had come _ into. his life, and to make enough money to marry her he had thrown his ideals overboard, trying cnly to write the sort of tales and books the public wanted. It was a fatal error, but ex- cusable, John believed, under the cir- cumstances. He awoke to realize he had sold his soul and he had not been paid for it. For his first two nm bels were utter ‘allures, and his publishers had refused 0 accept the third. Then the iron entered into the man’s ioul. He sat down and wrote the book he had always wanted to write. He aardly stirred from his room during But when the manuscript lay before him he knew ne had at last achieved what he had always hoped to achieve. He sent it to his publishers and went to see Lesbia. He meant to tell her about his long struggle for her, to ask her if she wolud share his life, that of a failure. And he, always remembered her look, her words, sobbed out de- spairingly: "You waited too long! You should have told me years ago! I am en- gaged to be married!” At once the man’s plans fell crum- bling into ashes. He tested the bitter- ness of life in all its fullness at 35. He left the city that day and went ints New England, choosing the most se- cluded village there. He devoted the small capital that remained to him to starting a small poultry farm and gar- den. That was a year ago. He had dropped out of the lives of his asso- lates. None was dependent on him. _ Nobody would care what happened to him. And he resolved never to set pen to paper again for literary use. He kept his vow, too, though at times the old impulse was strong upon him. His “neighbors knew him only as a shy, re- served man, probably with a secret iv his life. It was no concern of theirs; ‘they accepted him for what he was. ing it. Fame at Last. HE words of his neighbor brought ag back to John’s mind al] the wretchedness of those years of struggle. Know how to wait ! And he had waited too long. The old man came toddling back ‘*o him, waving a newspaper. “Say, Mr. Rochester, there’s some- thing about you in the paper, I reckon,”’ he said, handing him the sheet. ‘They got your photograph on the front page. Hain’t done nothing, have ye?’ “No, I don’t think so," answered John, taking the newspaper. As the old man had said, his photograph stared out from the front page, and under it was his name. There was a long article accompany- It said John Rochester, the famous author, had at last been located in. Massachusetts, after the world had been honeycombed for him. He learned that his book, ‘‘Heart’s Desire,’ had been published and was one of the best sellers, both in America and in En- gland. It had been translated into sev- en languages. And John Rochester was in Massachusetts, all the while, keeving bees and cows. Here followed a long and fanciful sketch of him. John handed back the newspaper to the old fellow. “Yes, I plead guilty,” he said bitter- ly. “I wrote a book. And I suppose it’s made a rich man of me. I'll put a new roof on my henhouse tomorrow, and you can tell Biggs, the carpenter, so: That's all.”’ That night was sleepless. The: man reviewed all his past life, and over it, as a grinning motto, were the words “too late!’’ Would that this book had never seen the light! What did his fame avail him now? The Return of Lesbia. Tt postman, on his morning round, a iet off a young woman at John’s gate. “TI aln’t got no mail, Mister Roches- ter,’’ he called, ‘“‘but I guess you'll like this party 'most as well. She was in- quiring for you particular, Mister Ro- chester, and so I gave her a lift. I'll be back in half an hour, miss,"’ he adided, whipping up his horse and driv- ing away in the shaky postman’s cart. John, emerging from his cottage door, found himself face to face with a charming young woman in a new hat and fashionable dress. For a moment his heart leaped; he hoped it was Lesbia. Then he recognized her—one of Lesbia’s friends, who had been a good friend of his once, before she passed out of his life. “Why, Mr. Rochester!” she exclaimed. “And so you have been found at last. F was—was visiting some friends at Cedars, and I came over expressly to see vou on my way home, and congratulate you. And now you're coming back to town, aren’t you? Everybody is crazy to meet you and honor the famous au- thor.”’ John smiled bitterly. “I’ve done with that sort of life,”’ he answered. “No, I’m a rustic for good now. Nothing would drag me back to the city again.” “Well, I’m sorry,” said the girl. “T wanted you to meet my friend—such a nice girl, and dying to know you. There wasn't room for three in the postman’s cart, so I left her at the corner. Won't you come?’ *“No, thank you,” sald John grimly. “She gave me a message for you. She said I was to tell you a man can be too late and yet succeed. She said it’s troken off, and—O John, come and meet Lesbia. She doesn’t dare come to you. Are you a man or a stone? No, never raind your hat, John. Lesbia won't care. It’s only a few yards round that house of the funny old man with the goatee.” (Copyright. by W. G.

How do the disease germs get into the dust? These germs prefer warmth and moisture, and they develop on the noist surfaces of human beings an4 enimals, and in decaying vegetation, etc. All these places afford fertile fields for organisins, as they are often called. They prefer moist surfaces, but in time the moigture dries out and the germs, frome living and some dead, become dried and enter into the dust of the air currents, and then it is that they become a menace. On high mountains and on the sea the rir is practically free from germs, and in the wintef months, when rain and enow keep the ground more or less wet, their numbers are much reduced. A hard rainstorm tends, to a marked de- gree, to free the air of germs, by liter- nily washing them down into the sewers. and it ie possible to find them in the new-formed snow crystals.

Reba was very successful, and soon sold her things for a good price and set out toward her home. As the way lay through the woods she walked quickly, for the sun was beginning to droop toward the west. Hardly had she gone a few yards when she tripped and fell, and as she rose to her feet she heard a mocking laugh sounding as if from someone running down a Cark byway. She found her purse—al! the money she had in the world—ha‘ dropped when she had fallen and that someone had grabbed it up and fled with it. She knew that the persun must be the one whom she heard laugh. so without thinking she set out at ful speed in pursuit. VERY now and then she could see Fo a dark form flitting through the trees before her, passing lightly over the ground. At last the figure reached the bank of a broad stream ani passed over a log which rested on the bank. Reba in her haste followed and was soon on a queer island covered with high cliffs from which grew all kinds of thorn bushes. She saw the figure which she had followed climb up a lad der formed of strong vines, and, grasp. ing the round, Reba went up after the thief, but when she got to the top she was very much frightened. For before her she saw a circle underneath a clus- ter of willow trees, and in the cent-r blazed a big fire. Over the fire hung eo huge kettle, from which floated up fumes of a horrible smelling broth, an-1 around *the fire danced 13 women with tangled hair falling about their hollow, yellow faces. As they danced their rags would flap in the breezes and thev would toss their skinny arms up to the evening moon which hung low over th* trees. Reba shivered with fear.

Presentiv they began to sing a weird song whose words were these: Witches are we from over the world, Here on the breath of the gale we are hurled, l We bring stolen treasure from al] of the earth, And we shout and we dance in our wild witches’ mirth. We bifried it safe in the old hollow tree, Where never a morta) or fairy can see, But if any person should upset this pot, Why never again could we come to this spot. They took out of the tree a great chest, and when they opened it Reba saw it was full of gold and flashing gems. Then they buried it again in the hollow trunk of the tree and piled dead leaves over the spot. After that they sat down on the side of the circle just opposite the girl. Reba knew that the treasure was all stolen and that her money had been hidden in the chest. Then she remem- bered what they had said in the song. O Reba got a long pole, and, watch- S ing till the hags were slumbering in the moonlight, under an old willow, crept up and gave the pot a push, then fled out of their view some distance off behind a big oak. As soon as the broth began to spill out on the fire it set up a horrible smell, which woke the witches. Then out of the smoke and smell flew hundreds of bats that stuck on the old hags’ heads. Jumping up with wild screams, the witches clapped their hands above their brows, then set out racing wildly across the log. In a few minutes they were out of sight. The smoke cleared away and Reba ran to-the spot. It took her but a few minutes to dig up the treasure chest, and when the lid was raised, she found there was thousands and thousands of dollars worth of gold, gems and jewelry, so she filled her apron full and +.» home, What Thin Folks Should Do to Gain Weight Physician's Advice for Thin, Unde- veloped Men and Women Thousands of poopie sive thinness, weak nerves and feeble stomachs who, having tried advertised fiesh-makers, food-fads, physical culture stunts and rub-on creams, .resign them- selves to life-long #skinniness and think nothing will make them fat.

An energetic promoter rides out upon the stage in a jitney bus that has four seats and seems capable of offering ac- commodations to eight persons. A farmer is spied in the offing. The pro- moter attracts his attention by the methods known only too well by such seekers after lucre.

The campaign, originally initiated in Eastern Prussia by Winter of Koenigsberg for the instruction of a]! people, but particularly of women in the early symptoms of cancer, explained the value of the earliest possible surgical and medical treatment. When the campaign was started in the early nineties the cancer death rate of Koenigsberg had increased from 53 in 1880 to 110 in 1893. The rate continued to incredse up to 1907, when it reached a maximum of 139 a 160,000 of population. Subsequent to that year the rate gradu- ally declined to a minimum of 118 for the year 1912. Piano Strings. aap pape yo the hard, high ten- sion strand of old, the piano wire in demand today for the highest grade instrument, is tough and fibrous and of absolute uniformity, and when cut, it shows a clean, white steel. The plano makers have, by actual test, been brought to see that the softer wire has the greater artistic merit. The latter vibrate so evenly throughout, when actuated’ by the proper degree of energy, that a true fundamental! tone results, with just enough of the octave to impart brilliancy, of the fifth to im- part timber and of the third and sixth to impart richness, and will be ampli- fied by the sounding board. Airship Improvements. O* late there have been made at- tempts to construct aeroplanes of a transparent material, at least for all purposes where a canvas covering is used at present, such as the «ings and the fuselage. One of the latest ideas of the kind is said to be an aeroplane which uses un- inflammable celluloid for the wings and other parts, and when flying a few hundred feet in the air the apparatus is quite invisible, according to reports. A new muffling box on the motor serves to deaden the sound. | Qne advantage of the transparence its that observations can be made in all di- rections.

Pop Puts Over an $8000 Order. VAP why did they buy a road- ster in the first place?’ shout- ed Pop. “They're always boasting about the number of friends they have. Why do people with such hosts of friends buy a two-seated car?” “They have a very logical explanation for it,"’ elucidated Ma. ‘‘They say that they both have a great many relations in very moderate circumstances. These relations all have children. Now, they wouldn't object to taking these people out every once in a while and giving them a ride, but when peopie go out in 4 car it’s always a question of stopping to have a drink or a bite to eat—and they’d have to foot all the bills. And they say it would break them. See?” “Souf is grand!’ scoffed Pop. “The whole thing is that they’re too blamed selfish to give other people a little pleas- ure. And now when a man comes on from the West—a possible big custom- er—Green wants to ring me in as the goat and have me take the man and his wife out in MY car. I should waste MY gasoline and stand the wear and tear on MY tires for his customer, so he can make a hit. Nothing doing!” “Aren't you disagreeable, Milton?” ar- gued Ma. ‘Can't you do a favor for a friend?” “It depends upon the favor,’ retorted Pop. What business did Mrs. Green tell you this man was in?’ “Why, he owns the largest printing plant west of the Mississippi and he's bere to buy some new presses. It would mean a big order for Mr. Green if he could land it.” Pop thought seriously for a moment. “T’ll do it!’ he decided. And just before we called for the par- ty, Pop went to his desk and shoved a lot of printed slips into his pocket. “We'll let Green set the pace in his roadster,”’ he told the man from the West a little later. ‘“‘He knows which way he wants to go. There are two g00d roads.’’ So the Greens snorted off with much Electrocuting Germs. ‘ N Liverpool and some of the other cities of England milk is now served commercially which has been sterilized by electricity. In other words, the germs are electrocuted by being passed through the influence of an alternating current of about 4000 volts. The treatment is said to have its great- est effect on the harmful germs, as the beneficent ones do not seem to b:2 reriously interfered with.

On the thirty-first mile Pop slowed down a bit, giving as a reason that the engine was unusually hot. We came to a cross- roads. The horizon was bare of any ani all cars. “Well, we're up against it.” said Pop most cheerfully, “we'll take a cance and turn to the left.” Then we whopped it up for 2 miles. No sign of the Greens. ‘We took the wrong road,”’ announced Pop. “Well, we might as well stop at this interesting little inn and have a bite.”’ There were several! delectable bites and fizz, and after it was over Pop and the man from the West went strolling under the small trees, smoking. When they came back Pop was just anchoring his fountain pen and blowing on some of the printed slips to dry the ink. “I’ve been too blamed upright all my life,’"’ explained Pop, that night. “That's the reason I’m so poor.

However, all the strength lies in the Hast, Stallings’ pennant machine is beginning to ease into its true stride. Spark-plug Evers is on the job again and Sherwood Magee is begin- ning to hit. Boston yesterday won its fourth oe game by a margin of one run. They beat the Cubs 4—3 last Thursday, 2—1 on Friday, 1—0 on Saturday and 1—0 yesterday. Sher- wood Magee’s hit brought home the beachnut yesterday. About Those Phils. That's the true test for champlion- ship timber—to win the 1—0 games. It indicates tight pitching and a tighter defense. So we must reckon with the Braves. Philadelphia still holds the lead, however, but we in- sist that the going will be harder for the Phils in the West than it was at home. Away from that “band- box” park the hits will be harder to garner. Moran's men open here tomorrow against the Cards. In their present disorganized state the Cards hardly have a chance of subjugating the enemy, especially in the opener, which will be Alexander’s game. How- ever. if the Cards get any kind of pitching and maintain the _ batting pace they lately acquired, they may surprise. They’re full of surprises. Always have been.

One of the most pecullar and com- plicated plays of the season, resulting in a “triple killing” for the Brook- feds against the Terriers came in the seventh inning of yesterday's 6—6 victory for the Terriers. The win Monday gave Jones’ charges the long end of the series with Brooklyn, 83—2. It was the first series the Terriers won since their return to St. Louis. The triple play pulled by the Brookfeds came in the seventh in- ning and it was helped along by a “boner” by Babe Borton. With Bor- ton on third and Korvs on first, Drake sent a liner to Cooper in left. Kores tried to go to second and when Kores Started for the middle sack Borton tried to sneak home. Fred Smith, who took the throw was wide aw ake and shot the ball to Bradley between third and home. Then came 4 run-up on Borton. Mean- while Kores sauntered to third and Bradley tagged Kores. This put out Kores as Borton was entitled to the base. Then came Borton’s “bone.” The first sacker stepped off the bag and also was tagged ~ 1 agg 4 Um- pire Johnstone waived out and the side was retired. Eddie Plank, the star southpaw of the Terriers, was called upon to*save the game for the locals. In the eight after Crandall, who had replace ‘Watson. had been belted for a dou- ble and home run, he was chased. Plank set the Brooklyn crew down in one, two, three order after that. They’re Boycotting Brookfeds. Just because the Bakers’ Union in Brooklyn was not strong enough to furnish Owner Ward of the Brook- feds with enough men, and he re- fused to hire union and nonunion men, finally deciding against the union, a boycott has been out on his team all season. During the series between the Terriers and Brooklyn pickets were out in front of the gates every day and handing oyt books, telling union maén not to patronize the games in which Brooklyn played. Ward owns a chain of bakeries 5" Chi- cago and hires all union men. rook - lyn he tg the union leaders together and told them he was willing to sign on scale of wages if the union would furnish all the men he needed.

As Hoerr was the titleholder, the jest was not a merry one. However, Roland has several more titles left to worry over... He had just finished his successful campaign in the Central States championship, which he won with ease from Drummond Jones. He also still holds the lowa State cham- ionship, the Oklahoma State title, the issouri Valley Conference champlion- ship and he has one leg on the Mis- souri Valley states trophy. Hoerr expects to defend al! his titles this year, which ought to keep him well occupied, Last year Hoerr com- peted in five tournaments in five suc- cessive weeks, playing through all of them and resting up on Sundays only. He suffered two defeats, one by Arm- strong of St. Paul in the Valley singles and one by Clarence Griffin, the coast star, in the Ohio State championship finals. Monett, the Oklahoma player who par- ticipated in the Central States event here recently, was also put out of yes- terday’s Southwestern championship, Edward Buddy of Dallas beating him 7—5, 26, 6—2. McLoughlin to Meet Williams? The first day's play in the Longwood tennis tournament at Boston yesterday saw no astonishing reversals. All the championship factors came through all right, McLoughlin, who has two legs on the Longwood trophy, will be on hand to defend his cup in the challenge round. The event is the first of a series lead- ing up to the National championship. all of which appear to have as their climax a final between R Williams of Phila- gelpnia and Maurice McLoughlin of Cali- orn Wawever, the improvement in the work of Griffin and Johnston. other coast repre- sentatives, make them also factors. Griffin elim inated Williams in the East vs. West tournament at Frisco. McLoughlin has the better of Williams in the tourney now in progress. as he is compelled to play only the. challege round and therefore ought to be free from stress and strain when he defends his title A victory over Williams will give him per- manent possession of the: Longwood cup.

Gilmore seems to have led rather a decent life. LD MAN ‘JINX appears to have resumed his favorite pastime o batting Harry Howell about. The latest swat was administe through the agency of James Gilmore, president of the Federa About the only thing he had on his conscience was the staff of Fed umpires, for which he is en- tirely responsible. To make amends Gilmore poctaneey — slashing the umps with vigor of course, among those to re- ceive it right where his collar button annoys him, was our old friend Harry Howell. Gilmore appears also to have real-, ized, late, that he paid Coe for his whistle when he hired Umpire Fyfe. So he potted him with the same shot that killed Howell Dame Fortune Refuses to Smile. OWELL’S most important role, since he quit pitching for the Browns to train for grand opera, has been that of shuttlecock. Four times he has had opportunities to make ood, only to be kicked out of them y circumstance. At first Harry essayed the role of scout for Hedges. He was doing fa- mously when he had to go and dis- cover Gus Williams. Whereupon he turned his attention to the umpire field, and had already received the glad eye sign from Ban Johnson for an A. L. job, when up bobbed Larry Lajoie, who wanted his batting asSreus fixed so that it would pon Cobb's arry essayed to fix it oy, “seeing’’ the official scorer here. e fixed himself, right. Then the Texas League opened wide its arms to welcome Harry. Howell embraced it fervently. For, after all. a ham sandwich is better than dog- biscyit, or nothing. But after pros- pering there awhile, Harry umpired a deciding game the wrong way to suit the Waco club, whose owner happened to be the league president. Zippee! And away went Howell's hope of horning into organized major leawuedom by the minor rote. Finally came the call of the Fed- eral League, followed by the “call” of Fielder Jones, with tts subsequent finality noted above. From a liong- range view, it appears to most of us that Finneran, not Howell, Was the bov to deserve the ax. At any rate Harry is on his way. He still has his singine voice, which he will probably unmugzle at nicture show stands. pending conferring the favor of his signature to a Metropoli- tan grand epere contract. * Bill Phelon Is hahedetsnielh ILLIAM PHELON, the only sporting writer in captivity with the courage to make a pet of a squirrel, is stirring up matters as Boxing Commissioner at Cincinnati. An interviewer quotes William as follows: “All we require of fighters who accept dates in our clubs ig to go on the level and give the public what it pays for. and | they don’t feel like doing that they had better stay away, and that is perhaps what keeps so many champions and near-cham- pions away from Ciacinnati,” But it doesn’t explain, pit. no baseball champions have } in Cincy in the memory of the est inhabitants. McFarland’s Bean Working Well LI. fears that Packey McFar- land’s mind was falling, cre- ated by the several announcements that he was about to fight Mike Gib- bons, have been effectually dis- sted pelled. McFariand now states that ‘icin Must Brace or Yield Sixth | Place to Reorganized Nap Team Branch Rickey and his pitcherless cohorts are in Philadelphia today for a series with one of the two teams lower in the percentage column than themselves. And it behooves the Browns to get going or else they will be dislodged from sixth place by the Naps, who have been reorganized into somewhat of a winner.

T was toward the end of the sum- | mer bride season. Judson, the jun- ior partner, was back from his wed- ding trip. Mr. Jarr was one of the first to felicitate him on having braved all the perils of the honeymoon. The good wishes of Jenkins, the bookkeeper, and Johnson, the cashier, and all the rest followed. Judson had asked them to “call up to our little place’ at that rather in- definite date, “some day.’’ Then the office friends began to advise him as to how to steer his bark successfully through the seemingly calm = and peaceful waters of matrimony. “You want to start in from the very beginning, being kind, but firm,” said Jenkins. ‘“‘Remember, now is the time to get down to cases on a working agreement that will, through all the rest of your life, leave you a free man— that is, as free as any man who is mar- ried can be.” “What would you advise? Be spe- cifia,”” said Judson. ; *T am. going to be that. You must join a club.” “But I gave up all my clubs,” fal- tered the junfor partner. “I thought I'd have no more use for a club after I married.” “You wort,” said Mr. Jarr, “and, fur- thermore, it is doubtful if you will have the money to pay dues’’— “Let me explain this to him,” inter- rupted Jenkins. “Judson, you want a club and you want it quick!’’ “But I don’t want to go to any club, and, furthermore, I don’t desire even to pretend I want to joina club. I want to be at home; that’s what I married for.” “IT thought the same, too,” said Jen- kins, “but I was advised by an experi- enced friend. So I took Tuesday night off from the very beginning. Now I am free any Tuesday night. “But I don’t want to adopt a subter- fuge like that. It doesn't seem square." “You mean you don’t want to leave home nights,” said Mr. Jenkins. “That's the way I felt, too. The first six months my Tuesday night off was a lonesome horror to me. I was down- “gyn, bumming and disconsolate. I'd rather, a hundred times, have been home. But after six months the propo- sition began to draw dividends. Now I even call special meetings of that club at times.”’ “The club idea doesn’t go with my bride,’’ remarked Mr. Jarr. “You didn’t start it in time,’”’ said Jenkins and Johnson nodded approval. “When vou tried to do it on my advice it was then f6o late.’’ “Well. I didn’t try as hard as I might have,’ said Mr. Jarr. “But I'll tell yon what I did. I told my wife that once a week each man was expected to Stay late at the office. My wife couldn't understand why this was so, but I showed her that if the servant had a day off, men working on the wholesale line had to have a night on.”’ “Oh, that’s all right, too,’’ said Jenk- inse “That's an extra.

Go out every whether you want to or not. If you ever miss one night by saying, ‘Oh, I don't think I'll attend the meeting tonight,’ you weaken your position. An aggres- sive woman will exert pressure and make you resign from the club.”’ “But if it’s only an imaginary club your wife will find it out.” “Well,” admitted Jenkins, ‘it isn’t wholly an imaginary club; but is it somewhat nebulous. Yet it’s a good working arrangement. We call it “The Sheltering Order of Wok-Wok.’ ” ‘The Sheltering Order of Wok-Wok?” repeated Judson. “That's its name,” said Mr. Jenkins. ‘Sounds moral and beneficial, doesn’t it? It really has no meeting place and no officers, constitution or charter. But every member of the Sheltering Order of Wok-Wok is a soldier of the common good. ‘For instance,” said Mr. Jekins, “‘you are out all night sitting in a little game, say. You tel. your wife you were on the sick visiting list for the Sheltering Order of Wok-Wok that night. I drop around the next night and say our sick broth- club night | er is better—I can have him die, if you | want to get out again, you know. All this, you see, is corroborative evidence.”’ “Are you fellows joshing me?” asked Judson. ‘“‘Bven tf you're not, I think that’s playing it rather low down.” “Oh, well, rush to your doom,” said Mr. Jarr. “I’m going to be on the level with my wife,” said the virtuous young mar- ried man. ‘“But,”’ and he took out his notebook and pencil, ‘‘give me the name of that sheltering order again.”’ ORE don’t bite at all than those inclined to bite off more than they cam chew.

SOQURTH and PINE | Noises of the Night ; LLABELLE MAE DOOLITTLE, a ‘passion poetess of Puckhuddle, down in Dunklin County, sends in the following wéird vers libre. She was inspired one night when she uwoke and heard strange creakings from the doors, furniture, etc. The rhyme is called “Noises of the Night, So Gray and Bleak.”’ Here it is: When I awake at midnight, And I hear the clock ticking, Everything seems so weird-like, And little noises are so tricky, You think you hear a burglar, perhaps, Just because the door did creak. But nothing is tv be found behind it, Noises of the night so gray and bleak! My sister’s child, Teeny Ricketts, Tried to take a bath in the wash boiler, She got stuck in it, of course, And really we had to oil her. But, getting back to noises of the night, Never let them frighten you, There's Rover's leg pounding the floor. Ocar old dog! What can be biting you. Don’t Ever Let Anyone Tell You This as a New One.
