WASHINGTON, July 31.—While offi- dials here today awaited further details ef the fighting between Haitians and the ferces under Rear Admiral Caperton at Port au Prince, in which two American bluejackets were killed, additional ma- rines were being put in readiness to be rushed to Haiti. The battleship Con- necticut with 500 marines aboard sailed today from Philadelphia. In addition, the naval transport Hancock at Phil- adelphia also will go to fiaiti carrying other forces, it was said. The Navy Department has decided to No further casualties to the American forces have been reported, but the of- ficials have come to the conclusion that the American occupation will continue for some time. Natives Being Disarmed. “The Navy Department issued this istatement: “Rear Admiral Caperton reports from Port au Prince that the disarming of soldiers and civilians is still going on, and a quantity of arms and amunition already has been collected and placed under guard in the palace. Due to the large area covered by the city, it will take sometime to complete disarming reports that the " emaive Bobo.

ENGLISH WOMEN ARE ASKED ' TO GIVE UP THEIR LUXURIES War Savings Committee Suggests That They Walk and Wear y~e Year’s Gowns. LONDON, July 31.—The men of En- gland, having been urged to go on the water wagon for the remainder of the war, the women of England are to be asked to sign a pledge against the use of luxuries, the sug- gestion coming from the Parliamen- tary War Savings Committee. H. E. Morgan, assisting in the propoganda, has made these sugges- tions: Wealthy women—Don’t use your motor cars for private purposes, De- vote them to public uses and WALK! Young men—Don't take your sweethearts to restaurants to dine. Eat at home and save money. Young women—Ignore the new fashions. Wear last year’s gowns until they are no longer serviceable. Chorus girls—Eschew taxicabs and you can donate the fare saved to war relief funds. Cooks—aAbstain from extravagance in the kitchen. Foods heated over are palatable. Morgan explains that men can take the pledge against extravagance. The trouble with Great Britain, he says, is that half th of eTTratTor persons, while the other half gobs to 43,- 000,000. STEEL PLANT SERVES MEALS IN FIGHT ON STRONG DRINK Posters Told of Evils of Liquor; Chicago Saloon Men Said Cold Lunch Was Bad, Set Up Free Food. CHICAGO, July 31.—Officials of the Illinois Steel Co., in South Chicago, have started a campaign against drinking among their employes. Signs and post- ers telling the evils of strong drink were displayed in all parts of the plant, and the officlals were beginning to con- gratulate themselves on the good effect of the campiagn, when the saloonkeep- ers established elaborate free lunches and posted signs telling of the bad ef- fect cold lunches had on digestive or- gans. Here is one sign: “Don’t come in to drink. Come in to eat.”’ Thecompany came back with the es- tablishment of a restaurant in the plant. Today the men will eat their first meal, with the following menu: Bowl of soup, 2 cents; roast beef and potatoes, 5 cents: tomato, 1 cent; pie, 1 cent; coffee, 2 cents; ham sandwich, 2 cents; beans. 2 cents; ice cream, 2 cents. / “JERICHO” HORN ON HER AUTO Woman Denies Causing Anything to Fall, but Must Muffle It.

BIG BRITISH FREIGHTER One American of Crew Killed When Iberian Tries to Get Away. THREE OTHERS LOSE LIVES Sixty-One of Crew Saved—Ves- sel Had Carried War Supplies From America. WASHINGTON, July 31—Only one American, a muleteer named Whyley, was killed when the British ship Iberian was shelled and sunk by a German submarine. American Consul Frost, at Queenstown, reported today that the Iberian disregarded the submarine’s warning to stop. Later the German com- mander gave the crew time to take to the boats before firing a torpedo. Whyley died of shock and ‘wounds from shells. Consul Frost’s report said: “Steam- er Iberian submarined. Whyley, American muleteer, killed. Ship sur- geon of the Iberian, an American citizen, states that submarine did not shell Iberian until the latter disre- garded signal, Gave time to take boats. Whyley died from shock and superficial wounds. No other Ameri- cans injured.” LONDON, July 31.—The Leyland liner Iberian has been sunk by a German sub- marine. Five members of the crew were killed, two died aboard a rescue boat, and 61 were landed safely. The casualties on board the Iberian were caused by shell fire. The sub- marine then torpedoed the Leyland liner and the vessel went to the bottom. The ship was attacked off the south coast of Ireland Friday. She was bound from Liverpool for Boston. The Iberian, 5223 tons gross, sailed from Boston July 7, for Manchester, where she arrived July 2. She was 437 feet long, with a beam of 48 feet, and was built at Sunderland in 1900. On her arrival] at Boston from Man- chester and Liverpool, July 2, members of the Iberian’s crew told of being chased by a German submarine when only a few miles from the mouth of the Mersey. Capt. Jago maneuvered his ship out of danger, however. The Iberian has been used for several supplies between the United States and England. The Norwegian steamship Trondh- jemsfjord was torpedoed and sunk yes- terday by a German submarine. The Belgian steamer Prince also was sunk by striking a mine. The crew of both vessels were saved. Eight more Lowestoft trawlers have been sunk by German submarines. The crews were saved. = —-—--—— -- Danish Crew Testifies Steamer Was Sunk by German Torpedo Boat. LONDON, July 31.—A Copenhagen dispatch. to the London Post says: “The crew of the steamer Nogill tes- tified before the Maritime Court that the steamer was sunk by a German torpedo boat and not by a submarine. The trpedo boat was one of a flotilla of eight ships of a new type, 327 feet long and mounting four 8.5-centimeter guns. The Nogill’s sailors said they were told by the German crew that they were re- turning from a i10-days’ cruise in the North Sea, and that they had no fear of an enemy’s fleet because of their speed and unusually heavy armament.” The Danish steamer Nogill, bound from Gothenburg, Sweden, for the Riv- er Tyne, laden with railroad ties, was reported July 27 to have been sunk in the North Sea by a German submarine. The crew of the steamer was landed at Wilhelmshaven. Nationality of Most of the Horsemen and Hostlers in Doubt. BOSTON, July $1.—About eighty horse- men and hostlers, many of them from Boston and vicinity. sailed on the Iber- jan when she left Boston for Manchester and Liverpool on July 7. The steamer carried 600 horses and a general cargo, but, according to advices received at the Boston office, was bringing back only a small consignment of bales goods. It was not known here how many of the horsemen were returning to this coun- try with the vessel. Of the men shipped here some were American citizens, but the nationality of the greater number is in doubt. The name Whyley does not appear in the list of horse traders who sailed from Boston on the Iberian, as given out at the Leyland Line offices here. The nearest approach to Whyley is Mark I. Wiley, who booked in the capacity of assistant foreman of the horsemen. His home ts in East Bos- ton.

Director of Streets Talbert is going to try again to convince policemen that it is not beneath their dignity to oper- ate a semaphore, with red and green lights, for the guidance of traffic. Up to now the policemen have taken the position that if semaphores are to be operated the thing to do is to put switchmen on the job. When a semaphore was placed last winter at Twelfth and Locust. streets, the policemen who were put in charge of it struck. They were willing to stand in the middle of the street and wave their arms this way and that, because there was something authoritative about that, but they were rot willing to stand there and turn a handle that controiled red and green discs by day and red and green lights by night. In spite sof the disapproval of the ;olicemen, Director, Talbert still thinks the semaphore is a good thing. He is going to ask President McPheeters of the Police Board to approve the placing of one at King’s highway and Delmar boulevard. In New York, the traffic police have recently adopted the Talbert method of semaphore signals, where the traffic is heaviest, and the plan there has been pronounced successful. Director Talbert is confident the police will approve the semaphore signal if it is given a thorough trial. He said it will work to better advantage at the King’s highway-Delmar crossing than at Twelfth and Locust streets, as most traffic at the latter point turns into or cut of Locust street, instead of pursu- ing a straight-ahead course. In mak- ing a right angle turn, a driver is more iikely to become confused by a sema- phore, as both the open and closed sig- nals are faced in making the turn.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex., July 31.—The re-occupation of Mexico City last night by the Consittutionalist troops under Gen. Pablo Gonzales was reported in a telegram received here today by Sam uel Belden, legal representative of Gen. Carranza from Jesus Acuna, Minister of the Interior. Saturday, July 24, by wireless from steamship City of Tampico to Galveston, July 3i1.—Paul Hudson, president of the Herald Pub- lishing Co. of Mexico City, an Amer- MEXICO CITY, lican citizen, together with members of his family and the staff of his paper. are prisoners in Mexico City and threat- ened with courtmartial. Hudson is a Topeka (Kan.) man and is well known in Kansas City. The charges against Hudson have not heen set forth,.and it is not known what fate awaits him. Allan Mallorey, an American, has been «assaulted by followers of Zapata, while carrying diplomatic correspondence. At the time of this attick Mallorey was carrying an American flag, which was torn and insulted by his Mexican assail- ants. Zapata personally destroyed the correspondence taken from Mallorey. He broke the legation seals, saying at the fame time that the Americans were fools. The Brazilian Minister made an ef- fort to obtain the release of Hudson, but he was openly flouted. Govern- mental control is lacking in Mexico City and terror prevails. Swiss and Spanish citizens have been removed in automobiles and ordered executed. Res- ident foreigners are greatly alarmed Zapata is quoted as having said that he intended to kill the local Spaniards. | The foreigners feel that their position is ‘particularly precarious for the rea- son that they are unable to appeal to any authority. The food situation in Mexico City is Jesperate. Starvation is abroad and the people are eating cats and dogs. Even some of the foreign residents are starving. Certain Mexicans are appeal- ing to the Brazilian Minister for inter. vention by the United States. Bands composed of followers of Zapata and Villa are extending their control ‘hroughout the interior of the republic and almost all of Central Mexico is to- day virtually without any constituted government. The followers of Gen. Car- ranza are fleeing toWard the coast citles. The above dispatch, delayed a week in transmission, gives further details of incidents in Mexico which have been ‘ecorded in the last week. President Directs That Steps Be Taken in Hudson's Behalf. CORNISH, N. H., July 31.—President Wilson is devoting much time to a study of the Mexican situation. He received from Secretary Lansing word of the rote sent Thursday night to Generals Carranza, Villa and Zapata, making urgent representations that the railroad between Vera Cruz and Mexico City be kept open in order that food might be sent tc starving people in the capital. The President is understood to feel that firm measures must be taken to carry out this object. Appeals were made te the President in behalf of Paul Hudson, the publish- er, under arerst In Mexico City. The President directed that everything pos- sible be done in Hudson's behalf. Carranza’s Agents Say Hin Army Will Again Occupy Capital. WASHINGTON, July 31.—First results cf the joint warning from the United States to Carranza, Villa and Zapata. that the rallroad from Vera Cruz to Mexico City must be kept open for transportation of food to the starving in Mexico City, became apparent today. Carranza’s agents prepared for confer- ences with administration officials to sive assurances that a Carranza army will again occupy the capital and keep the railroad open. The army evacuated the capital two weeks ago. It was dis- closed officially today that Carranga’s army occupied the capital against the ‘udgment of the military commanders, because the United States asked Car- feel they will be able to keep ihe capita! jand set up a government. 7 ranza to do so.

CIVILIANS LEAVE CITY: FALL EXPECTED HOURLY we Demand for Conscription Renewed in England, Where Events Are Viewed With Alarm— Russian Press Feels Allies Should’ Have Ex- erted Greater Pressure in the West. By the Associated Press. LONDON, July 31.—Austro-German cavalry have entered I.ublin. Official announcement to this effect from Vienna, supple- menting German claims of last night that the Russian grip along this southern front had been broken, indicates that the important Lublin-Chelm railway now is strongly held by the invaders under Field Marshel von Mackensen, — off one line of retreat for the Russian forces in Southern Poland. Meantime, Gen. von Buelow continues his drive toward Viina, secking.. to cut the Northern Railway from Warsaw to Petrograd and the predica- ment of the Russian armies seeking to withdraw intact from Warsaw, unless the main forces already are out of the district, becomes more perilous. = Warsaw’s 800,000 inhabitants, laden with such household articles and supplies of food as they can carry, are fleeing the city toward the East, and every dispatch from Russia makes guarded reference, though quite colorlessly, to some phase of the evacuation of the city. Problem of Holding Russian Wings More Acute. Official announcement of its abandonment, which even now may be a fact, has not been forthcoming, however, although the slender hope of the entente allied countries that the Germans might be held on the threshold is dissipitated and military writers are confining themselves to debating Grand Duke Nicholas’ chances of extricating his armies from the hard pinched triangle without disaster. Besides the capture of Lubin and the seizure of the railway, the German forces have crossed the Vistula: River between Warsaw and Ivangorod and the problem for the Russians to held their wings north and south of Warsaw while the center retires, becomes more acute. It was argued that the conduct of this retreat without great loss would entail the necessity of the Lublin-Chelm front holding firm. Now that it is broken quick action on the part of the Russians becomes impera- tive as also does the stemming of the increasing German forces driving from Kovno and Suwalki toward Vilna, the capture of which would cause the northern line to retreat. With these developments, Great Britain is greatly concerned. Some sections of the newspapers are seizing the opportunity to emphasize Rus- sia’s task and press for conscription here as the best proof to give Russia that the Western allies purpose to stand by her in exerting all the pres- sure possible in the west. Russian Press Feels Allies Should Have Helped. The Russian press, according to special dispatches reaching London, feels that the Western allies should have initiated some movement in France of in Belgium to relieve the strain on Russia, as Russia did by her invasion of East Prussia. : With events shaped as they now are, it is realized here that Russia has lost the initiative for the remainder of the summer, which will enable the Central Powers to strike hard at either France, Belgium, Servia or Italy. Grand Duke Nicholas has decreed, according to a Reuter’s Petrograd dispatch, that no property in Warsaw shall be destroyed unless such « step is imperative from a viewpoint of military necessity. Owners of property and growing crops which are destroyed will be indemnified by the Russian Government. Special routes have been designated for the uge. of the inhabitants of Warsaw, who are leaving the city. Austrian Cavalry Entered Lublin Friday. VIENNA, via London, July 31.—Austrian cavalry entered Lublia Friday afternoon, according to an official statement issued at the Austrian war office. By the occupation of Lublin, 95 miles southeast of Warsaw, the Aus trians have cut the Russian all-important means of communication con- necting the whole southern Russian front between the Vistula and the Bug Rivers. The Russians have battled desperately to prevent the Teutonig allies from gaining possession of the Ivangorod-Lublin-Cbhelm Railroad, which for some distance parallels the Vistula River, : The Russians rushed to the front new reserves and veteran troops whose ranks had been recruited to full strength. These forces administered serious checks to the Austro-German forces although exposed te a merct- less artillery fire. The German Field Marshal, Von Mackensen, has be) successful at last in forcing an advance. , Control of this railroad will afford the Austro-Germans a means of quickly massing troopa at any point desired and will deprive the Russians of one of their main avenues of retreat.

REDFIELD ASKED 10 ORDER WIDER EASTLAND INQUIRY Secretary,’ Stirred by Charges, Promises Department Investi- gation, if Warranted. CHICAGO’ July 31.—Secretary of Commerce Redfield stirred up criticism of his inquiry into the steamer East- land disaster by I6cal public officials, declazed today he would make a thor- ough investigation of the entire United States steamboat inspection service if proper charges against individual in- spectors or the department are filed. The Secretary said that both he and the Federal officials whose duty it was to ‘“‘give a square deal to all” had been prejudged and “not given a chance” by Chicago officials and others. The statement made by the Secretary followed a demand by Lieutenant-Gov- ernor Barratt O’Haera, acting Governor of Iilinois, that the Federal inquiry be widened ‘‘to cover every activity of the United States steamboat service during the last 15 years.” : ‘Albert L. Thurman, solicitor of the Department of Commerce, replied to the acting Governor's request in a heated speech in which h said: “It cannot be done; it is impossible—this request of the Lieutenant-Governor. The statutes does not allow it.’ Conference Is Planned. At the close of the morning session, Secretary Redficld adjourned the in- quiry until 10 o’clock Monday morning and said that tefore that time a meeting would be held as Lieutenant-Governor O'Hara had suggested, to consider ways and means for widening. the investiga- tion. After detailing the manner in which he became connected with the inquiry as a membor of the civilian advisory cemmittee and stating that he was act- ing as a representative of the labor interests at Secretary Redfield’s re- quest, Lieutenant-Governor O’Hara said: “Tt may be that the highest monument that we can construct to the memory of the Fiastland dead will consist of re- vieed laws covering the U. S. steamboat inspection service. “It took the deaths of hundreds of persons to render safe Ciuicago theaters and it is my purpose in suggesting this new inquiry to do the same thing for lake boat passengers. “T ask, as Acting Governor of the State, that the Chicago press and Chi- cago citizens refrain from oxpressing criticism of Mr. Redfield and of his in- vestigation until that investigation has been completed. “T ask the Secretary of Commerce to call as witness at this new inquiry, if such an inquiry be instituted, represen- tatives and members of organized sea- men and glso allow interests employ- ing seamen to have an opportunity to testify.”’ Premises Inquriy if Warranted. Solicitor Thurman adv Secretary Redfield that the law 4 not author- ize any such investigation. Later he said: “We will investigate the whole De- partment of Commerce, from the Sec- retary to the most humble deputy, :f proper charges, charges containing facts, are lodged with the Washington authorities.” Secretary Redfield then said: “I am in entire accord with Mr. O'Hara on ie gubject.

One of the first witnesses called before Steamboat Inspector such a wide-open | the jury wus S. G. Jenks of Port Huron, Mich., member of the firm which con- structed the vessel. Public funeral services ‘attended bv more than one thousand persons were held in the suburb of Cicero today for Willie Novotny, 7 years old, one of the Eastland victims, whose body lay in a morgue for six days before it was identified. Willie’s father, mother and 12-year- old sister, who also were drowned in the Eastland, were buried with him. The only member of the family left is Wil- lie’s aged grandmother.

NEW BRITISH REGULATION Masters of Neutral Ships Visiting British Ports Must Have Iden- tification Papers. By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, July 381.—Germany will deny that any agent of the Gov- ernment has ever had a hand In forging American passports and will advise the State Department that, if such statements have been made by holders of passports, they are absolutely false. in effect, was the opinion ex- pressed by officials of the State De- partment this afternoon. The evidence on which the State De- partment’s complaint was made to the German Foreigyg Office is based on the testimony of two German spies, ar- rested in London, who confessed that they had received the passports from agents of the German secret service. It is the belief of the State Depart- ment that Germany will contend that these men made these aggertions in hope of saving their lives and that the Ger- man Government cannot be held re- sponsible for thelr statements. Officials today called attention to the fact that it is against the policy of a government to support its spies when they are caught in acts which are in any wise calculated to make trouble with friendly countries. Nev- ertheless, officials of the State De- partment believe that agents of the German Government have been mak~ ing improper use of American pags- ports. Consul-General Skinner at London to- day notified the State Department of a new British regulation requiring mas- ‘ters and sailors on neutral ships vis- iting British ports to be provided with passports or identification papers, and to present such papers for registry if remaining more than 2 hours in British waters. Until the order is in full force temporary landing permits will be issued. A large proportion of the crews of American ships are neither native Americans nor naturalized Americans, and cannot receive passports from the United States. That -presents a diffi- culty which may be an embarrassment to American trade. It was explained that the order was aimed at German sples. | President Is Much Concerned Over Haiti Fatalities Continued From Page One. vened yesterday.

He expressed con- gern and directed that all information obtainable be forwarded to him from Washington. In answer to questions corncerning the Yaitian situation, the President said he knew no more than the public generally and that he could add nothing to the facts already published.

PHILADELPHIA, July 3h—The battle- ship Connecticut, with nearly 500 ma- rines on board, sailed from the Phila- delphia Navy Yard today for Port au Prince, Haiti, where the sea soldiers will reinforce those already on duty there. As the Connecticut drew away from her dock, sailors and marines on board the battleship Minneseta and cruisers Brooklyn and Columbia, lined the rails and the bands played ‘The Star Spangled Banner.”’ The marines, many of whom saw serv- ice at Vera Cruz during the American vecupation of the Mexican city last year, are commanded by Col. E. K. Cole of the United States Marine Corps. Capt. BE. H. Durell is in command of the bat- tleship, which is expected to reach Port au Prince in four or five days.

AFTER FALL OF WARSAW Germans With Freshly As- sembled Masses Expected to Launch Big Attack. MAY BE AGAINST ITALY) London Papers Admit Defeat of Russian Army Is Serious for Allies. LONDON, Juiy 31.—The London morn- ing papers generally devote their leading editorial space to the ‘Warsaw crisis, expressing British sympathy for the Russian vecple and the hope that Grand Duke Nicholas, commander in chief of the Russien forces, will be able to ex- tricate hig armies successfully. At the samé time there is a general inclination on the part of the papers to ask what the effect of the German achievement in the east will have on the western line. Many of the papers call attention to a Petrograd dispatch which quotes Col. Shumsky, military critic pf the Bourse Gazette, as follows: “For the.English and French a oriti- cai junctuge is approaching when the Germans, ; hurling themselves with freshly assembled masses on France. will force a decisive battle which will séitle the issue of the campaign on thé French front and at the same rtimep prohably the issue of the whole war.” Kaew Werst in Few Days. A characteristic editorial is that in the Daily Telegraph, which says in part: “The whole heart of this nation goes out in sympathy and gratitude to Rus- sia, whose armies have withstood for three months the most gigantic efforts of an army overwhelmingly superior in numbers and equipmen:. German &trat- egy achieves a striking success as the result of plans conceived on a gigantic scale and carried out with supreme determination at the price of incal- culable losges. It remains uncertain to what extent the latest developments of the German plan, espcitily in the north, may have interfered w:th he Russian dizpositions, tut in a fev days we shall know the worst and the best.’’ The military correspendent of the Times, discussing the ypossibillities. of disaster to the Russian armies in re- tirement, says that ‘i: will be a diffi- cult retirement.’’ “The security of the whole line,’”’ con- tinues the Times correspondent, ‘‘de- pends upon whether Gen. von Buelow can be prevented from forcing a pas- sage of the Sventa River (Kovno Prov- ince), on its 40-mile front, and march- ing on Vilna, and whether, at the same time, his cavairy masses can be pre- vented from cutting up the communi- cations rther afield. The natural course would be for Grand Duke Nich- olasto reinforce his fifth army from, reserves at Brest-Litovsk, and end the Northern menace. If he does not, Gen von Buelow will throw a ring around Kovno, clear the east bank of the Nie- men, pass the Tenth German Army Corps across and establish himself at Vilna and astride the Russian commu- nications. Retirement Will Be Difficult, “There is a fair chance that the re- tirement may be successfully carrie1 out, but the moment it begins all Ger- man armies will throw themselves upon the Russian rear guards like packs of wolves. “From Warsaw to Brest-Litovsk is 120 miles, or 12 days’ march, and the arduous duty of the Russian staff will be to so order the retreat that no de- tachments may be cut off.’’ Discusaing the probability of a re- tirement of the Russian army from Warsaw the London syatee Says eai- torlally today: “The Russian wings must hold on un- til the center from Serock, Novogeorg- ievsk and Warsaw comes abreast of them, and unlegs the Niemen and Bobr front hold firm there will be trouble. “An interesting poirt is whether the fortresses of Novogeorgievsk, Warsaw and Ivangorod will be retained or evac- uated. Railways Germany needs ‘or a further advance pass through these fortresses, but if Russian garrisons are left they may absorb 100,00 men who may never be seen again.” Warsaw Important te England. The Chronicle believes Germany i'l be content to allow the Russians to re- tire to a new line’ meanwhile occupying themselves with fortifying their newly ‘captured pogitions. “It is possible,’’ saya the Chronicle, ‘that the Germans will not try to break through the new Russian i!nes which gives them in turn a short and easy line to defend. Then they can promptly transfer their huye surplus forces io another area*‘for un offensive against Italy, Serbia or the Anglo-French front. Before autumn one of the three is likely to be hammered hard and signs point to Serbia or Italy as the first to be at- tacked.” “Warsaw touches us in England very nearly ard sharply,” says the Mail, in an editorial. “We shall feel the loss of the city even more than the Russians who have limitless space in which to retreat. We hope authoritative means will be taken to inform the Russian Duma at its sitting tomorrow that Great Britain stands firm with Russia in this struggie."’ TOM RANDOLPH JR. .

Moraht of the Tageblatt, in Review of Oper- ations of First 12 Months, Sees Improved Prospects of Austro-German Victory. “BERLIN, July 31.—Maj. Ernest Mo- raht, the military correspondent of the Berliner Tageblatt, reviewing the 12 months of’ the war, for the Associated Press, says: “A year ago a coalition with a power- ful numerical superiority decjared war on Austria-Hungary and Germany. The hostile countries have a tar larger pop- ulation than have the two central pow- ers and their combined armies originally outnumbered those of the latter. Ths central states, however, have known how to improve this difficult situation by alternately taking the offensive and defensive on the western and eastern fronts. “In the west the German armies in a rapid, triumphant advance, carried thei; standards within 50 miles of Paris, and have kept them flying there since mid- September. Even though the right and left wings of our wide-flung battle frout in France and Belgium have been bent back since then (because there was nv other method for the time being of counteracting the numerical superority of the British, French and Beigians), still we hold the positions, fortified dur- ing the nine months, firmly in our hands, so that almost all of Belgiur: and the Northeastern Departments of France have been occupied by the troops of Germany. Campaigns in the East. “In the East the Autro-German armies first held up the Russian millions on; the Galician frontiers, and then were forced to retire before a manifold nu- merical superiority, to intrench them- selves on the crest of the Carpathians and to beat back until May 1 the Rus- sian assaults with heavy losses. Mean- while Field Marshal von Hindenburf, in East Prussia,~was able to destrov several large Ssian armies, and free East Prussia; to occupy conjointly ‘with Austrian troops Poland almost to the Vistula River and in the northeast to carry the war into the Russian prov- inces. } “While the positions in the war in the West continue to and fro, and three great attempts made to break through our lines in the winter, spring and summer were repulsed with awful losses to our enemies, the German and Austro-Hungarian armies on May 1 launched a great offensive against the Russian armies in Galicia. “In a series of battles and under constant pursuit, the Russians were hunted “out of 43,470 square miles of Galicia, the principal force was sev- ered at several places and they were driven eastward and northward. “The west bank of the Vistula in Poland has been cleared of Russian armies. The siege of Warsaw is about to begin, and Field Marshal von Hin- denburg in the northward has pressed forward against Riga, and now has reached the vic'nity of the city, after numerous victories. The successes of the Germans have ,Cost the Russiar army many millions in dead, wounded and prisoners. “The Russian Empire possesses only/fragments of its mighty armies and no longer can supply these adequately with arms and munitions Their fate will be decided very shortly. The Russian forces will be destroyed or forced to flee deep into the interior to the eastward. In the Weat and the Dardaneties. “The battles in the West have cut s0 deeply into the French strength that now 18-year-old lads must bear arms. Great Britain’s original army has been destroyed and only enough substitutes can be raised to hold a 4-mile frotit in Belgium. The British losses, partic- ularly those of officers, have been very heavy. The army of 3,000,000 men which Lord Kitchener promised six montha ago has not yet appeared, and our op- ponents in the West never again will be able to raise superior forces to ex- pel the Germans from the country. “The action in the Dardanelles, which has been in progress for months against the Turks, shows results for the British and French only in great losses of men, ships and war supplies of all kinds. The Turkish army stead- ily is improving in numbers and qual- ity. The Turkish fortifications are quite as strong as they were at tha outset. The prospects of the attackers reaching Constantinople, therefore, have vanished, and since none of tac Balkan States are willing to enter the Anglo-French service and since the Russian army which should have par- ticipated from Odessa has been de- stroyed in Galicia, it is difficult to see any chances for France and Great Britain. Italy’s Part in the War. “Should Italy send an army to the Dardanelles, it will find a superior Turk- ish army ready to receive it. Italy, after conducting mobilization secretly for nine months entered the fleld against Austria- Ifungary at the end of May. An Italian army, 1000,000 men hc. has been at-| tempting for two months to sweep over the fortified Austrian passes and to crogs the Isonzo River, behind which the Austro-Hungarian defensive army occu- pies strong positions. All the attempts of the Italians up te the present have been unsuccessful. The cost of the at- tackers has been hundreds of thousands in dead and wounded. Austrie-Hungary its valiant struggle is a difficult one against Italian superiority in nymbers, it will be able to bar the way to the coastiand and to Trieste and Tyrol. ‘Meanwhile Italy has lost her entire colony at Tripoli te the Arabs and ap- parently is about to declare war on Tur- key. “The Servian Army, after great louses in the winter, has undertaken no mili- tary operations, being content to guard the frontiers of ite country on which there no longer is an Austro-Hungarian army. Balkans and Greece. | “The other Bajkan states are about to decide which side they shall take in the war. Since Rusgia’s forces have been driven back badly beaten and u« German and Austro-Hungarian army has been arrayed near the frontier of Rumania, Bulgaria bas come to an un- derstanding with Turkey, and Greece remains the opponent of Italy, and an increase in the number of our enemies under control of the Entente allies no longer is to be anticipated by Austria- Hungary. “The Germans have every reason, therefore, at the end of the first year of the war to consider their sacrifices in blood and treasure have been reward- ed. We are well prepared for a continu- ance of the war. Our nation still pos- sesses determination to conquer and to make the neecssary sacrifices. Our sup- plies of war material are assured by ef- ficient organizations. Our finances are far from exhausted and there is no lack of provisions. Our fleet, déspite a few losses among the cruisers, is ready to be thrown into the struggle at the prop. er moment and in full strength, and our submarines in all the seas are the dread of our enemies. Thus their offensive has changed to a defensive and the pros- pects of eventual victory for the Centrai Powers is materially increased.” Germany's Reserve Forces. In a recent article in the Tagebiatt Maj. Moraht said: “Germany has only just now trained and placed in service its 1915 levy, young men who reach their twentieth birthday in. this year. We possess an important reservoir of men fit for service in the untrained landstrum. As is well known so long as peace existed, we did not en- roll In the army many ten’ of thou- sands yearly, because there was no place for them. . But now, levies of 2 years, Inciting men fri ® to 4 years oid, 1 furnish a great new army of usable men. In addition to this comes a mass of many hundreds of thousands of su- perfluous men—that is, those who be- cause of economic reasons, were not taken from their families for military service. “Finally 1,600,000 volunteers came for- ward at the very beginging and later more than 560,000 more. Austria-Hun- gary has already extended its landsturm law from the forty-second to the fif- tleth year and thus created eight fur- ther annual levies of men, capable of bearing arms. A high percentage of its agricultural population is fit for service and many tens of thousands have volunteered. The war against italy has caused almost the entire male lation of Tiroland and other Alpine pakstots to hasten to arms and, as in days of Andreas Hofer, the beard- less boy stands besides the gray bearded sharpshooter. “In Turkey the number of men capa. ble of bearing arms is growing as a result of the revised defense law and the human material that streams in from the deserta of Asia and Africa is not yet exhausted.’’ Sanitation Contrasts. Great was the expert's praise of the superior sanitary service of the German armies. He drew a distheasing picture of inadequate facilities in the allied camps, especially British and Russian, and said: “Now for the other side. The Germaa ministry has just given out « table in which is stated just how y m.mbers of the army in all the home war hospitals of Germany were restored to duty, how many died and how many were temporarily furloughed. Accord- ing to this table at the beginning of the war 8.8 per cent of all wounded werv eventually able to return to the front and only 3 per cent died; 12.2 per cent were furloughed as temporarily or per- manently unfit. In the course of the war thesc favorabie figures have become even more favorable, so that in April, 1916, 91.2 per cent became fit for duty, only 1.4 per cent died and 7.4 per cent were listed as unfit for duty or ab tem- vorarily unfit.” JURY IN TRIAL OF WARD FOR WIFE'S DEATH FAILS TO AGREE Eight Jurors for Acquittal in West Piains Cane; Defense Ready fer a Second Trial. | SPRINGFIELD, Mo., July %1.—After 17 hours deliberation, the jury in the trial of George W.

Polivanoff, Russian Minister of War: “My opinion in a few words, after one year’s duration of this war, unprecedented in the world’s an- nals, is as follows: “The enemy is strong ané cruel, and that is the very reason why Russia and her heroic allies must continue the war—should it last for several years—until the enemy is completely crushed.” Neutrality Leader Maps His Vision of “New Germaay” Ceatiaued From Page One.

Miss Charlotte Rumbold, whose resig- nation as Supervisor of Kecreation in the Park Department became effective today, announced to associates- at the city hall, in taking lehve of them, that she is about to enjoy her ‘irst summer vacation in the eight years she has de- voted to municipai work hy taking a dip in the Atlantic Ocean Miss Rumbold assured Park Commis- sioner Cunliff that she regretted her inability to retain her post in the face of the Board of Aldermen's refusal to Place its approval on her work by in- creasing her salary from $1800 to $2500 a year. Miss Rumbold tendered her resigna- tion to be effective July 1, but Com- missioner Cunliff persuaded her to re- main until the busy July period on the playgrounds had expired. Her post will be left open until next April, when the city’s fiscal year begins, an1 the appro- priation for the recreation division will be made by the Board of Alijermen. City officiais are inclined to believe that the activity of Miss Rumbold’s friends forced her resignation. As an argument in behalf of an increased sal. ary for her, they had warnei Aldermen that the city would lose he, services if her salary was not raised. This ar- gument was based on Miss Rumbold’s announcement, tast winter, that she would accept a position in the same field at New York, untess she got a higher salary here. The New York posirion. it was learned after this an- nourcement, paid $4000 a year, and was governed by civil service inws, so that it could only be awarded after. com- petitive tests. Miss Rumbold, however, asserted her friends hai siven her practical assurance that she would be appointed if sne took the examination. After tiie Aldermen finally refused to grant a salary increase, Miss Rumbeld wavered for a few hours between re- taining her position, at the old salary, or resigning. The Park Commissioner, the morning after the salary increase was denied, ennounced “iss Rumbvold had decided to remain in tis depart- ment. In the evening he changed his announcement and saic Miss liumlold had resicned. effective July 3), A movement was then starte:] by Miss Rumbold’s friends to induce the Alder- men to reconsider their acti'-n. This they refused to do. METAL UTENSILS ARE SEIZED Prussian Province Expropriates Skillets, Pots, Pans and Kettles.

Thomas H. McKittrick, former presi- dent of the Hargadjne- -McKittrick Dry Goods Co., a $6,000,000 corporation now in process of Nauidation. filed an answer in the United States District Court today to the suit filed several weeks ago by Peter J. Byrne, a stockholder, asking for the appointment of a. receiver. The Hargadine-McKittrick Co. was wrecked as the result of its acquisition and cperation of the Williatm Barr Dry Goods Co. for several years and the promotion ani erection of the 21-sory Railway Exchange Building. In his answer McKittrick denies that he ever personally undertood to plan or erect the Railway Exchange Building in his cwn behalf, but that in everything he diggin the’ acquisition of ground leases "and the construction of the build- ing—he was acting in behalf and for the benefit of the Hargadine-McKittrick company. He denied that any of the money of the MHargadine-McKittrick company was used to the payment of his own obligations, or that he or any other officer or director of the company ever made one dollar of persona! profit out of the acquisition of the leases and the construction of the building. Conceived Building Plan. He admits that he conceived’the plan of the Railway Exchange Building and aided in its construction, and that every- thing he did was with the full sanction of the directors of the dry goods com- pany, and for the benefit of that cor- poration. The corporation, in conferring powers upon him, was acting within its charter rights, he asserts. He denied further that any of the property of the Hargadine-McKittrick Co. was ever illegally held from the stockholders. He asserted that he used his personal credit for the the company, and that he and several other officials sacrificed their entire pri- vate fortunes in their efforts to preserve its assets and make money for the stockholders. McKittrick denied taking any commis- sions or profits of any kind in connec- tion with the erection of the building, and stated that the only moneys he ever received from the Hargadine-Mc- Kittrick Co. for any purpose was for his salaryias president of the company —his salary being $13,500 a year—and for dividends on his stock. He never re- ceived any salary, commissions or other profits from the Railway Exchange Building Co., the Wildjam Barr Dry Goods Co., or the Railway Exchange Building syndicate, he dsserts. He never at any time refused to tell the stock- holders of the dry goods company what hecame of the assets, he states, and none of the assets were wasted, ’ Credit Refused to Company. The answer states that the dry goods company, finding on March 15 that the vanks - would not extend it the credit necessary to continue busi- ness, decided to liquidate. Dis- satisfied stockholders at that time threatened to suit for a receiver, it is stated, and had their petition prepared and signed. They, however, agreed at a meeting to the appointment of a liqui- dating committee, MeKittrick and the other members of his family holding offices in the company, resigning. E. C. Simmons, George M. Wright and Walker Hill were named as directors, to sugceed the three McKittricks, and the new hoard, March:22, appointed a liquidating comunittee comprised of Simmons, Wright and R. MoKittrick Jones. The answer states that the liquidating committee made an advantageous cash sale of the entire stock of goods, and some of the fixtures, to the Ely-Walker Dry Goods Co., this deal having been negotiated by McHittrick himself. The price obtained for the stock of goods was not stated. The answer recites that collections of the outstanding claims of the company have been made so that 85 per cent of the creditors’ claims, aggregating ap- rroximately $3,000,000, have been paid. The company still has outstanding bills receivable amounting to $800,000, which it is stated, are being collected by the Ely-Walker company. - The company owns the entire capital stock of the Railway Exchange Build- ing Co., having par value of $2,000,000: $250,000 of the first mortgage bonds of the Railway Exchange Building Co., and the stock of several factories. McKittrick asks the court, upon this showing to dismiss the suit filed by Byrne, so that the liquidating committee may proceed with its work of winding up the business of the company. The answer was filed by Attorneys Paniel G. Taylor and Jacob Chasnoff. Woman Told in Note to Keep “Kids in Own Yard.” Mrs.. Mary Schueller of 2733 Dodier street found on her front porch ‘this morning a package containing three red pills and a note which read: “Take these pills and croak. Keep your kids in your own yard.

The realestate men suggested that all of that’ section ef the county east of Denny road should be annexed to the city. ; ' Charles Z. Trembley, the president, suggested that many of the citizens liv- ing in the county had business in the city,, and that an appeal to their civic pride ought to induce them to favor an- nexation. He suggested further that saloons could be kept out of the county towns by the people themselves, just as they are kept out of certain residence dis- tricts of the West End. The county leaders who have dis- cussed the annexation prcposition de- Clare that it would be necessary to an- nex the entire county and to give the county towns local self-government be- fore any annexation scheme would have any chance of being approved by the voters of the county. Local self-government is -desired to keep saloons out, and the county resi- dents object to the annexation of th most populous and wealthy sections of the county, leaving “the farming sec- tions to bear the entire burden of main- taining a county government. PROPOSAL OF GLEN ECHO “INS” NOT ACCEPTED BY THE “OUTS” Offer Turn Back Club Property tf Receiver Could Be Appointed Expires. The proposal made by the trustees of the new Glen Echo Country Club, by which it agreed to turn back to the old members the clfb property on condition that a receiver be ap- pointed and another sale of the prop- erty be authorized, expired at noon today. It was not accepted. Frank H. Sullivan, an attorney em- ployed by members of the old club to straighten out the controversy, is ready to begin legal action if another attempt to effect a compromise with the trustees is unsuccessful. Of the 135 members of the old club who were excluded from the in- vitation list, of the new club, 16 at- tended a meeting at the Washington Hotel last night. Oscar E. Buder and Lon O. Hocker, invitéd members, also were there. At a meeting at the Planters Ho- tel last Monday 25 members author- ized a counter proposition by which the trustees were to be reimbursed the property and the club was to be reorganized without a receivership or another sale. This proposition was rejected by the trustees on the ground that they could not consider it while their original proposition was still pending.

ROME, July 31.—an appeal for peace, Wwhigh is remarkable fur its eloquence, but contains no practical proposal as t how the war can te ended, is made by Pope Benedict in « letter published today in the Osservatore Romana, offi- cial organ of the Holy See. The letter is addressed to the Lelligerent: peoples and their rulers and.i¢ dated July 28, the anniversary of the declaration of war by Austria on Servia. In the Pope's entourage the impres- sion prevails that his letter practically amounts to an offer of mediation and a proffer of arbitratio:, which, pos- sibly, has been solicitel by subjects of his church in Austria and Germany. It is said in some quarters that the Pope is willing to assume the initiative, if aided and encouraged by the lovers of peace throughout the world. Would End “Horrible Slaughter.” After alluding to the rorrors of war und his efforts to’ letren them; the Fope, in his letter, warmly appeals for peace. He exhorts the fighting nations Yo end “the horrible slaughter which is dishonoring Europ.” Pope Benedict points our that violence ia the end accomplishes nothing, be- cuuge the complete destruction of na- tions is impogsible and that after na- tions have »een humiliated and op- rressed, thcy prepare for revenge, hatred being transmitted through gen- erations, Suggesting direct and indirect ex- changes of views with the object of examining the rights end aspirations of the contending nations, in the hope of arriving at a peaceful solution, the Pope asks the pezce advocates of the vorld to join with hirn and invoke God's intercession towards reconciliation. Sad Anniversary of Outbreak, The Pope declares fiat “‘it is our firm determination to devote ‘every activity to. a reconciliation of the people now en- gaged in this fractricidal struggle,’’ and continues: Today, the sad anniversary of the outbreak of this tremendous confla- gration, a more ardent plea arises from our heart for ‘a sudden cessa- tion of hostilities. The longer we cry for peace the more loudly may this cry reach the people of neutral coun- tries and their rulers, inducing them to higher counsels. Brotherly blood is being shed on land and sea. The most beautiful gardens of Europe, this garden of the world, are strewn with dead and ruins. Where once smiled factories and vineyards and fruitful field re now only the frightful guns ona: pouring forth their ruin and dea You are assuming before God and man tremendous responsibility. O, you warriors, heed our prayer. Hark to the paternal voice of the Eternal and Supreme Judge before whom all shall be called to account. Again the Pope declares: It must not be said that this con- flict cannot be settled without armed violence. Put away mutual desire for destruction and reflect that na- tions do not die; if humiliated and oppressed, they prepare to retaliate by transmitting from generation to generation hatred and a desire for revenge. Why should not a direct or an in- direct exchange of views be initiated in an endeavor, if possible, to ar- range aspiration so that all should be contented This is our cry for peace and we invite all friends of peace to unite with us in our desire to terminate this war and establish an empire of right, resolving hence- forth to solve differences, not by the sword but by equity and justice. * * * “Why Not Begin Now?” | Why not begin now to exchange views with the idea of ending the conflict? Blessed is he who will first raise the olive branch. The abundant wealth wherewith the Creator endowed these lands en- ables you to continue the war, but at what a price? Thousands of young lives are being snuffed out daily. Let the ruins of so many cities and vil- lages and monuments erected by genius in commemoration of the faith of our forefathers answer the bitter tears shed within the privacy of home or the foot of altars. No, that. cannot be. The price of the struggle is too high.

The Pope also says: “We impart our apostolic benediction also to- those -not yet belonging tc the Roman Church.’ . Little Hope Through America. It has been declared here that the Pope would be willing to tender his géod cftices to end hostilities and that his holiness only decided to make the ef- fort after realizing that the offer of arbitration from President Wilson is im- possible of acceptance because the Eu- ropean war may involve America. Pope Be adict feels in duty bound, it is asserted, to attempt to bring about peace. In sore quarters it is thought that evidently the Pope has some rea- eon to hope that his appeal will not fall on deaf ears, for it is thought to be inconceivable that his holiness would zppeal if he knew his efforts were uoomed to failure. - Pope Benedict merely proposes to bring the peace agencies of the bel- lbgerents into contact with each other, even if only indirectly, since he-is con- vinced that peace is possible if the first and greatest difficulty of initiating the negotiations ig overcome. Pope’s Plea Finds No Response in British Press, LONDON, July 31.—Pope Benedict's plea for the “arranging of aspira- tions” finds no response in the Brit- ish press, which rejects, as the West- minster Gazette puts it, the “impli- cation of the Pope that we all equally are involved in a fratrictdal struggle and that all in equal degree are r¢- sponsible for the origin and outcome of this strife.” “We had no choice in the matter in 1914,” the newspaper says, “and we have no choice in the matter now.” After citing examples of what it describes as the “terrorism and des- potism” perpetrated by Germany in the year of warfare, the Westminster Gazette says: “There is no conceiv- will meet our view short of an issue which will make a repetition of these events impossible in the future.” The Pall Mall Gazette, writing in a similar vein, while not questioning the Pope’s sincerity or impartiality, remarks: “But until victory definitely rests on the banner of our alliance, the Pope’s wish cannot be realized without the deepest wrong to the cause of right and liberty and peace itself.” Milan Papers Say Peace at Present Is Impossible. MILAN, Italy, July 31.—The entire press of this city, commenting on the Pope’s appeal to the belligerent coun- tries, says it shows the Pontiffs ar- dent desire to see the conflict ended. The Corriere Della Sera, however, remarks that any intervention in favor oy peace will find an insurmountable ob- stacle, namely, that the conflict cannot end except with a victory for the en- tente allies, the conflict being for them a defensive war inspired by pure idvals of liberty and justice. Thus, the con- demnation of the Pope, says the news- paper, strikes at those who for ambi- tions and desire for predominance un- chained war. The Secolo goes further, stating that peace now impossible because it would be advantageous only for Ger- many, occupying, as she does, Beigium, part of France and Russian Poland, while every day which passes wears out Germany’s forces, augments the re- sources of the allies and renders the intervention of the Balkan States more probable. The newspaper continues: “It is useless to speak of rights and just aspirations, as the Germans do not understand. They know only the arguments of force with which they must themselves be thrown back within their frontiers, reduced to impotence.”’ BOY DROWNS IN OUARRY POND, UNSEEN BY NINE COMPANIONS Mother of Henry Turner Raliies After Collapse and Watches While His .Body Is Recovered.

HE Germans and Austrians before Warsaw have experienced- the usual difficulties and delays getting into a big city. They have found the suburban facilities poor, and the trains infrequent. Nevertheless, they have persisted, as we all must under such conditions, and have finally effected an entrance. Contrary to expectations, the Russians are not destroying the city in giving it up. The Germans were so thorough in this sort of thing at Louvain and other places that the Russians decided to trust them to do it if they thought best. It is all one with the Russians; who have already taken out everything but the gas meters. matter with the Russian army. It has finally been explained to us what is the It is saving itself. The Russian generals can see no reason for risking battle at this time, when they can be sure of win- ning one later on. They are proceeding on the theory that they have more men than the enemy, and that if they both keep on losing at about the same ratio the side which has the greatest reserve in men is finally going to prevail. We do not know much about Russian philosophy, but if that is a sample of it, it looks pretty good. The western theater of war has been without a performance almost all week. What ails the allies in that quarter at a time when it would seem they ought to be able to take advantage of the campaign against the Russians is beyond conjecture. Our explanation that there are probably more Germans than anybody thought is the most plausible to date. A good many military critics have accepted it, and there have been few efforts to show how reasonable it is to sup- pose that a military nation like Germany would con- ceal its true birthrate. Still, we remain open-minded, though the idea is our own. Loving rock-bottom logic, we have not as yet advanced it as a truth, but as a suggestion. We are careful about those things. In a war like that im Flanders, which is chiefly a mental exercise, one must be able to split hairs four or five ways or keep out of the debate. We hear almost nothing from the Dardanelles. Some American sailors who have just been through Eastern waters on one of our cruisers say the losses of the allies have been beyond anything we have heard. We have guessed as much. When the British have a bad job on their hands they can be the stil- lest fighting people in history. The German equa- a - tion is what is Turks defended cleaned out long the difference. The Germans not catching the us on that score. not catch them, up to something, J best. It looks as if be a twesome.

UDGING by the following from the Calhoun County (Ill.) News, the pearl market over there is active enough to require speedboats: Frank Welling, a shell fisherman, while shelling in Light chute, just north of Hardin last Thursday found a thirty-one grain button pearl that he sold to O. CO. Bartholomew, the pearl buyer of Kampsville, the same day for $110. Mr. Welling found the gem in the morning and immediately came to Hardin, called up Mr. Bartholo- mew by phone who arrived here in his speed boat shortly after dinner and in less than thirty minutes the buyer became the owner of the pearl. It is a nice piece, perfect in shape and the luster is of the Several smaller pearls have been found around Hardin during the past few weeks which have re- alized the finders several dollars. —_—_>S— the Glen Echo Club would have to orangec, She was swollen so she could net walk, and she was under th for weeks.

Elizabeth Kenis0y Martin, 4 years old, the wife of James H. Mar- tin, an attorney. Mrs. Martin was hacked to death with a hatc het in her home here at 2 o'clock yesterday after- noon. The excitement seemed to have died down this afternoon, and the prisoner probably will be brought back here from Harrisburg late today. Fellowing the discovery of her body Deberry, a house servent. whose parole recently from the Stute Reformatory Mrs. Martin had been instrumental in getting, was arrested. later, when a mob of 500 men was forming near the jail, the Sheriff took the rrisoner away in an automobile. Sister Discovers Body. Mrs. Martin’s body wa3 discovered ‘on the second floor of her home by her sister, Mrs. Amelia K. Smith, and daughter, Mrs. Fred M. Rolens, who said that when they «appeared at the Martin home Deberry was greatly ex- ‘cited and did not have oo a shirt. Mrs. Martin was unconscious ond died a few minutes later. There was evidence in the room of a Mrs. Martin's skull -had been crushed. Botn forearms had deen broken and were lacerated. One hand had been split through the palm. A middle finger of the left hand had been severed. Mre. Martin evidently had been lying on a lounge in her room when he assailant entered. She had rushed into avother room, where furni- ture was overturned in her struggle with the intruder. Officers found Deberry’s shirt in his room, bearing, they said, stains thi looked like blood, A handax with red _ gtains on the handle, was found in the yard of the Martin home. | Attempts had been made to remove these stains. Before Deberry was placed in jail he denied knowledge of the murder, and stil maintains that he is innocent. News of the murder and subsequent flight of officers with the prisoner spread by telephone to neighboring towns. Jatled at Harrisburg. Members of the mob, in automobiles, pursued the officers who were fleeing with the negro. The officers first went to Marion, where they hoped to put the negro in jail, but they encountered a mob there. They hurriedly turned their machine and started for Harrisburg. At ll. oe’clock the negro was jailed at Har- risburs. : Once Robbed Martin Home. There are two theories here as to the motive for the murder, one that Mrs. Martin was attacked and the other that she surprised her assailant in the act of robbing the house. A neighbor who heard screams from the Martin home shortly before the dis- covery of the murder sent her young gon to the Martin house to learn the cause of the disturbance. He said De- verry told him Mrs. Martin was asleep and could not be digturbed. Mrs. Smith said that upon her’arrival at the Martin home Deberry told her she had better go upstairs as Mrs. Martin was badly hurt. A Martin said the negro had been in his He said the negro home and was paroled seven months ago, When the negro was released he reemployed him.

The hot weather is sapping the vital- ity of babies even in the homes where are found means of providing and pre- serving prope: nourishment and where those means are lacking the situation is one of pronounced peril for the lit- tle ones. Mothers daily appeal to the Post-Dispatch for aid in saving their infants. In every instance the call for help is promptly referred to the St. Louis Pure Milk Comzaission, which at once taxes steps to dc whatever is hecessary to be done. To obtain pure miik mothers need only to apply at any of the Pure Milk Commission's branch stations, with s certificate from a physician that milk is required and the applicant is without means to pay for it. How to Gbtain Free Ice, To obtain free ice, application to the Polar Wave company will bring a book of coupons. Deliveries of free icé are not made. Where there is no way of getting the ice through personal deliv- ery, application should be made to Mrs Nellie T. Melick, 5958 Kingsbury place, whose Bell telephone is Cabany 5366W. Mrs. Melick is visitor for the Free Ice and Diet Circle of King’s Daughters, who for more than 2 years have been ministering to the needy people of the city along this line. She will, in every case found worthy, have ice delivered free daily, the bill being paid monthly through the Post-Dispatch Pure’ Milk and Free Ice Fund. Physicians of the city should familiar- ize themselves with this admirable sys- tem of affording relief, in order that dangérous delays in receiving it may be averted. The brand of weather prevail- ing is not one against which ailing in- fants should be compelled to take chances. Big Benefit This Evening. This evening there will be given the benefit performance of “Turandot, the Princess of China,”’ at the Victoria The- ater, Delmar boulevard, east of Grand avenue, It is a production in which about 50 girls and boys will take part, and they have been rehearsed by capa- ble specialists in dancing, singing and stage business for weeks. The task of training, ordinary difficult and wear- ing, has been largely a pleasant pastime in this instance, for the boys and girls have from the first evineed an en- thusiasm that has literally lifted them into prompt mastery of their respective roles. Many of them entered upon the mer years in the same cause. Tickets for this evening’s benefit are only 10 and 20 cents, with 25 cents for reserved seats, and those who lend their persence at the Victoria may go with assuranc3 that the entertainment will be worth far more than the admission price.

PARIS, July 31.—After having won the cross of the Legion of Honor on the battlefield in 1870, Father Malaurie lived a peacef.! life as chaplain at a hospital in Algiers. The war came, and although more than 70 years old, he felt he was still vigorous and full of courage and so volunteered as stretcher bearer. There were three chaplains in the army to which he was attached and two were killed. Father Malaurie excaped and has been named in the order of the day: ‘Military Chaplain Malaurie (Jean) of the group of stretcher bearers of the Thirty-fifth Division of Infantry, com- batant in 1870, wounded at Sedan, has not hesitated to face the fatigues of war despite his Tl years, and has given to all during the hard fighting around Ypres the finest example of coolness and feourage In bestowing care on met eee ‘| week a BY | L.C.

Holman Day is fond of the open road. and the woods and fields. The educated tramp, who has taken to the roads be- cause of some great disappointment or family trouble, a who loses his ‘“grouch"’ and, by becoming interested in some great wrong he encounters, takes up life’s activities once more, is a favorite character with him. In “The Landi6éper” such a man is the center of interest. His buried faculties come to light and he wins fame, for- tune and a charming wife, when he a@- lows his sympathies to be aroused in be- half of the children and the men and women of a factory town who are dying from typhoid as a result of a poisonous water system. He tries in vain to save the life of a child to whom hig affection has gone out. This failure nerves him into engaging in local politics, to de- stroy the gang and those back of it who have control of a state’s water system. In this fight he is ably helped by the pretty girl who afterward, having es- caped the toils of the villain of the story, becomes his wife. There are a ‘number of quaint and odd characters in the story that furnish the necessary ele- ment of humor. “The Red Lane” is built on somewhat similar lines. It is a splendid picture of life on a border settlement whose peo- ple are of the old French Acadian stock. Highly melodramatic are both these tales, but sweet and wholesome. Mr. Day evidently believces in the good, old-fash- loned way ofthe one man and the one maid, who may have a strenuous court- ship and, by feason of the hostility-or wickedness or others, may achieve theiv goal with great difficulty, but who then will live happily, because they are devoted to duty as well as to love. In short, the Holman Day stories have more decent people in them than most romances of the period. They might be sneered at by the decadent as improbable and. a little crude, not in art but in sen- timent, For they glorify self-sacrifice, honesty and purity. Dickens, we believe, would have found delight in them. (Har- pers.) MY LAND, MY COUNTRY, MY HOME NE of those imaginative stories O that harks back to “The Prisoner of Zenda” days is “My Land, My Country, oright. My Home,” by Ad Al- it is highly fictitious from the beginning, with the hero appearing as a much to be pitied farm lad whoge drunken father beats him for using his wonderful singing voice to aid with a church musical festival. The boy and his mother leave the Quaker community and he becomes a business success and finally is identified as the lost heir of a Balkan throne and goes there to re- fuse the crown. After a series of tragic incidents he accepts, but the tragedy does not end even then. There are some very well told incidents and some rather tiresome descriptions in the book. One of the best parts is that devoted to the praise of the hero’s foster mother. For the person who likes imaginative, involved stories, it will }prove an exciting bit of litera- e. (C. F. Williams & Son.) DYKE’S AUTOMOBILE ENCYCLO- PEDIA., NEW, revised and enlarged edi- A tion of “‘Dyke’s Automobile and Gasoline Engine Encyclopedia,” has just been iSsued, the first entirely revised edition in two years. To the original mass of information in the volume chapters have been added n electric starters, generators and lighting systems; valve timing and ig- nition timing; repairing and complete instruction for Ford machines. The book contains no less than 319 full-page charts, illustrating every phase of auto- mobile building, assembling, repairing and operating. It is unnecessary, of course, to state that this automobile en- cyclopedia has cammended itself to own- ers, buyers and the trade generally by its thoroughness and simplicity as ai instructor. In its revised and enlarged form it will be found invaluable to any- one having anything to do with motor carriages or-gasoline propelled vehicles (A. L,. Dyke, St. Louis, publisher.)

CHAMBERS, who can} write had pages of interesting dia- logue all developed about the = quest of a young lady for a giass of water or the time of the day, shows in “Athalie,”” his latest collection of con- versation, that growing years have not diminished the fluidity of his pen tor stultified the charm of his “talk fests.” “Athalie” is a good deal like ‘The described as ‘399- pages in which they threaten but don't,”’ with this difference: in “Athalie” they make the threat good. Is a man justified in seeking happi- ness outside of the pale of convention? | This is the problem of the latest Cham- bers book. The hero fs miarried to @ cold, impossible woman. He loves Atha- lie and she loves him. After miles of conversation Athalie agrees to forget that he is a married man. Athalie is a country-bred girl who has the gift of clairvoyance. She can see far enough ahead to get others out of trouble, but not herself. Chambers pictures her, on her entrance to New York City as the purest type of rustic maiden. About two days after her arrival he has her smoking cigarettes. Chambers’ women all smoke cigarettes. He makes the habit useful. Whenever Rervine lights a cigarette. Whereupon a conversation ensues as to the value of cigarette smoking. When this is fin- ished Chambers has recovered his wind and the dialogue that preceded the cig- arettes is done all over again in differ- ent words. The plot of “Athalie’’ has nothing to commend itt. The book is interesting because of the dialogue—that’s all. (Ap- pleton. ) v CITY PLANNING. MERICAN cities, like Topsy, have A suet growed,”’ They were not planned. The result is that our cities, as a rule, are ugly and unattrac- tive. Visitors ¢o this country never fall to remark on this. Judging the Amer- ican people by their cities, the yisitors from abroad concluded long ago that Americans are prosaic, that art has no appeal to them. Fortunately, a whole- some change has come of late. We are beginning to beautify our cities. Many cities have commissions whose business it is to do city planning. St. Léuis has such plans on hand now. Responding to the demand of the time, the Russell Sage Foundation has caused the subject to be studied all over this .country. The results of such studies have .been put in-a book with the title “Carrying Out the City Plan.” As the carrying out of such plans has important legal phases, Filavel Shurt- leff of the Boston bar has done most of the work dealing with the legal aspects The other branches of city planning are covered by Frederick Law Olm- sted, leading landscape architect.. The material contained in the book is well arranged and the book is indispensable to any study of city planning. (Survey Associates.) THE SORROWS OF BELGIUM, HAT art and partisanship cannot go T together has again been demon- strated when Leonid Andreyev wrote ‘‘The Sorrows of Belgium.”’ This well-known Russian writer has done some work of a real artist. But in this piece of dramatic literature he has failed utterly. The six scenes are a series of incidents. There seems to be no central theme. Even the dramatic scene, or what should be a dramatic scene when the characters intended to represent the Belgian King and Maeter- link, is weak and coloriess. The translation is made by Herman Bernstein, who is a personal] friend of Andreyev. He would have done him a real act of friendship had he advised him not to publish this work because it does not do Andreyev any credit from an artistic point of view. (Macmillan). STORIES OF RUSSIAN LIF®. NDER the title “The Steppe,’’ a | collection of stories by Anton Tehekhoff has been gathered. The stories move slowly, as Russian fic- tion generally does. But one is ly repaid for following them. Tchekh is an artist. His art does not consist so much In creating situations as in araw. ing characters. Some of the most lov- able characters are to he found in these stories. One forgives the absence of plot on that account. In these stories, too, one learns a great deal about the Rus- sian people. The author knows them well and portrays them sincerely. While reading these stories one feels as if he were living among the Russians. Such books are particularly timely since the Russian people are such an important part of the world tragedy now being en- acted. (Stokes.) T poets. A BELGIAN POET. HE sorrows that have befallen Bel- gium have resulte1 in a great deal of interest In the work of her Among these, Emile Verhaeren cecupies an important place. He is 9 leader tn “verse libre,’’ having been cne of the few who revolted, against cld forms. His poems reflect’ the mist and flood which formed the environ- ment of his childhood Kuyt here and there he: forgets the “iong, unending threads, the loung-drawn ratn’’.and turns to some of the pleasanter moods of life. The translations are made by Alma Stretell, who also wrote the biographical introduction. The selection should have been more complete, giving particularly some of his early works. A _ portrait by John S.. Sargent enhences the value of the volume (Dane) lJ other vo'ume to -his fine gallery. This time he devetes himself to nature, and he knows how to describe her many moods. He sings of stars und spring and beautiful women and free men. But most of the time hesings of earth and sky and sea. (Mactiligy = a PICTURES AT HOME.

PARIS, July 8L—Emperor Francis ‘Jo- seph’s chief cook, a Russiah by the name of Persky, continues td prepare the aged ruler’s favorite dishes, despits the fact that his country is at war with the country of his employer. Rumor has it that at the outbreak of the war the celebrated culinary chef— and he is a real celebrity tn the worié of gourmets—sent i his resignation, stating that, although he was too old to serve in the acttvs army, he believed that his place was in his native land. The Emperor, so declares gossip, would hear nothing of it, and threat- ened, should Persky persist in his atti- tude, to send him toe «a concentration camp. Persky preferred the kitchen of Schoenbrunn Palace. Then the Emperor's suite began « campaign against the Russian artist of the pot and pan, asserting that not only was it unseemly that a subject of ‘an enemy country should oceupy a post of such eminence in the imperial heuse- hold, but that it would be dangerous te_ entrust him with the preperation of eae intended for the Emperor's tabl “If I-ean trust my army te my Gen- erals, I can cenfide my stemach to Persky,’’ the aged Emperor is said to have declared when the courtiers be- continued’ to “serve the: Gelleaeies thet ntinu © serve the del have endeared him to the saat ee hee by Despite the confidence EB th since y 4 sn nates and - not permitted to communicate with any- body outside the palace.
