PRICE ONE CENT EDITION G AUSTRIA PLANS TO TAKE POLAND INTO HER EMPIRE President of Polish National Committee Tells a Post- Dispatch Man That His Country Will Become Part of Triple Monarchy if Czar Is. Vanquished. WILL HAVE ITS OWN PREMIER AND CABINET Neither German Prince Nor Austrian Archduke to Be - Ruler, but Francis-Joseph __ to Be the King if He Sur- ~ vives War. By Karl H. Von Wiegand, A Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch and the New York World. (Copyright, 1915. by Press Pub. Co.) VIENNA, Aug. 13, via The Hague and London, Aug. 15.—The hope that their fatheriand will be freed from the Rus- sian yoke inspires the Poles with intense enthusiasm. They believe—and the be- Hef seems to be well founded—that the ancient star of Poland is in the as- eendancy. Poland will be reborn, re- created on the map of Europe as a king- dom with an independent Parliament. ‘ Under this form of government Polan:l will become a third member of the Aus- tro-Hungarian domain, which will be transformed from a dual to a triple sov- eréignty. Neither a German Prince nor an Austrian Archduke will occupy Po- land’s ancient throne, but if the aged Emperor Francis-Joseph survives he will become the first King of the recreated Polish kingdom. Warsaw will be Po- land’s capital again, and, in time, re- gain its historic brilliancy as the center of Polish art and literature. But all this if Germany and Austria succeed in main- taining the present ‘‘geographical line’ in Russia and ultimately vanquish the Caer. » There patrictic aspirations were ex- president of the Polish National Com- mittee, the most influential Polish lead- ef, at the committee’s busy headquar- ters. Jaworski went into some details concerning the proposed Polish kingdom and of the government evolved for her, some of which I am not at liberty to re- péat at the moment. I am free to give part of our conversation. , Warsaw's Fall, Sign of Poland’s Rise “The fall of Warsaw marks a new epoch in events which is must promising for the Polish people, who have never ceased to dream, hope and work for the restoration of our nation,” declared Ja- worski, ‘The fall of Warsaw is a sign of the rising of Poland. That is my firm conviction. If the central Powers re- main victorious against ‘ Russia—ani there appears no longer reason to doubt that. they: will—the Polish kingdom will again find her place on the map of Eu- “The new kingdom of Foland, so far aa the present idea is cvolved, will con- sist. of what is known us Russian er ‘Congress’ Poland, with Galicia. This will constitute a nation of perhaps 20,- 000,000 people. It is to become the third member of the Austrian empire, which would then be a triple. instead of a Gual monarchy and would be under the “Hapsburg sceptre.” “Is there any truth in the report that a German Prince or an Austrian Arch- duke is contemplated as the new King of Poland?” I asked. “There is not. Neither is there any descendant from the ol Polish royal family an aspirant for the throne. The idea is a now kingdom. Poland is to be constituted on u governmental basis similar to Hungary.. The Em- peror of Austria and King of the Hun. garians is also to be King of Poland. Ii, other words, if Emperor Francis Joseph still is living, which we hope he will be, he will be che first King of the new Polish nation.” “What form of independent govern- ment is being suggested or considered for Poland?” I asked. “A periiament, with a Polish Pre- mier and Polish Ministers, along the line of that at Budapest,” Jarowski answered. “The principal Ministers will be appointed by the King. Poland will select a delegation to discuss national affairs in common with the rest of the empire, as is done now. These affairs will embrace foreign relations, military matters, the customs, railroad tarif{s. and so on. That is about as closely as I can formulate roughly the tentative idea of the new Polish nation. . @ll Depends on Cezar’s Defeat. “You must understand, however, that the recreation of the Polish kingdom un- sceptre depends on two things: First, Russia's ultimate de- feat; second, upon an agreement be- ee Germany and Aurtria as to Po-}} the creation of a Polish kingdom as a third dependant member a we Austrian Empire?’ I asked. is not opposed to recreat- “pressed. to me today by M..Jaworski,i! | |PARTLY CLOUDY, PROBABLY WITH SHOWERS; COOLER THE TEMPERATURES.

SPEEDOMETER FOR TRAINS lL fe E_gtnemen Suspended if They Run Over 60 Miles an Hour. SHARON, Pa., Aug. 16.—Passenger trains on the Mahoning division of the Erie Railroad have been equipped with a device which records the speed over the entire distance traveled. If at the end of the run the device shows that the speed has exceeded that prescribed by the rules, the enginemen are sus- pended. Trains are permitted to travel 60 miles an hour, but an engineer has a mar- gin of six miles above that speed. LABOR COLLEGE FOR KANSAS Eugene V. Debs to Be President of the Institution. NEW YORK, Aug. 16.—Eugene V. Debs, national leader of the Socialist party. announces that a national labor college, to be known as the People’s College, will be established at Fort Scott, Kan.

Francis, Newstead and Mary- land avenues, and stole a bird trap. The device, ordinarily used for catch- ing pigeons, is of Government make, constructed of galvanized netting, and is about three feet long and 15 inches high and wide. WENT TOO FAR IN CORRECTING EVIL Former President Addresses Business Men’s League at Planters Hotel. ASSAILS WALSH BOARD Makes No Reference to the War or to the Mexican Situa- tion in His Talk. Former President William Howard Taft in a speech before’ the Business Men’s League at the Planters Hotel this afternoon, laughed at his own fate in being “kicked out of politics;’’ at- tributed the present unstable conditions of business tq overreaching’ by the American people in their effort to crush the combination of corporations and posses; praised the honest efforts of la- boring men to better their conditions through unionization, and bitterly as- sailed the industrial commission of which Frank P. Walsh of Kansas City is chairman. After the Planters luncheon, Prof. Taft was driven to Union Station, where he purchased a large palm-leaf fan for a nickel and bought himself another lunch, consisting of a chicken sand- wich, a plate of. ice cream and a cup of coffee. A reporter asked if he had not had enough to eat at the hotel. “I was thinking about my speech there,’’ the former President replied, with a broad smile, “and forgot to eat much.” Poses for Moving Picture. On his arrival at Union Station the former President carried out a prear- ranged plan to pose before a moving picture camera. He left the automobile with deliberation, purchased six copies of the Post-Dispatch from newsboys who ran up to him, and distributed the newspapers among those in his party and then boarded the train. The former President, lighter by about 5s pounds than when he occupied the White House, was introduced by Mei- ville E. Wilkinson, vice president of the league at the hotel luncheon. He had intended to play golf during the morn- ing, but was prevented doing so by a lame foot. on having free golf links, and paid a tribute to the voters of the city in hav ing shown a preference for him in the election of 1912, in which he was de- feated for the presidency. The big dining room of the hotel was packed with members of the league, and with Republican leaders. Taft left St. Louis immediately after the speech, to continue his journey to the Pacific coast. Eschews War and Mexico, Those who expected to hear the for- mer President discuss’. international questions, particularly the European war and the Mexican situation, were disappointed. He did not refer even in- directly to either subject. He said that he wished to discuss domestic questions. The tremendous expansion of industrv and the accumulation of wealth, he said, incident to the progress of the country, brought about certain conditions which aroused the people to protest against evils. ‘ Monopoly followed the progress of the country and eventually there was brought about a combination between corporations and the political bosses, which nearly resulted in a plutocracy in this country. The corporations wanted privileges io which they were not entitled, and the bosses were pecuniarily inclined, he pointed out. The railroads, which had been welcomed and encouraged, had cbtained privileges from the people, and were in duty bound to serve all the peo- ple alike. But after a time they yield- ed to the demands of certain interests and granted them favors which were denied to the public. The railroads at first laughed at the efforts of the peo- ple to regulate them through the Inter- state Commerce Commission and fought its order, he recalled.

ON RECORD IN U. 8. Foreign Exchange Quotation, _.Normally $4.87, Drops to $4.69 in New York. NEW YORK, Aug. 16.—The value of the English pound sterling went stead- ily downward today until it reached $1.64 in American money, the lowest ever placed upon it since New York became a financial center. Utter de- moralization of the foreign exchange markets resulted. Francs followed suit, falling to $6.00, or the equivalent of 16 2-3 cents. Nor- mally pounds sterling. are quoted at $4.87 and francs at approximately 20 cents. Last Saturday the pound estab- lished a new low record in the New York money market by falling to $4.69. Today it opened 2 cents under Satur- day’s lowest price, a situation without parellel in the history of American finance, within an hour lost another cent and by 1 o'clock bad sold down to $4.64. Pay for Goods Demanded, The sharp fall in exchange rates was ascribed to the demand of American manufacturers for pay for the goods scold by them abroad. Within the last few days the money market has been flooded with millions of American. bills against Great Britain and her allies. It was reported that last Friday be- tween $25,000,000 and $60,000,000 of such bills were presented to one big banking house alone. Today’s demands, which sent the exchange rates to unheard-of low levels, were believed to be far in excess of this sum. With th English pound debased as never before, the American dollar was today the standard of the world’s finan- cial market. In financia! circles the rapid lowering of foreign exchange rates was regarded as presaging difficulties ahead. Ways in which England might meet the situation and maintain her credit here were commonly discussed. There seemed to be two alternative: The es- tablishment here of a huge loan or credit, conservatively put at $500,000,000 or the acquisition in Englard of a large amount of American securities to be placed here as collateral for a temporary credit. Morgan Back at Desk. Bankers with international connec- tions were in conference over the sit- uation today. The reappearance in the field of J. P. Morgan for the first time since an attempt was made to assassi- nate him, July 3, gave color to the be- lief that negotiations to end the pres- ent abnormal situation might soon be consummated. In the face of this belfef, there was a rally in the market for sterling about 1 p. m., which brought quotations back to within 1 cent of the opening. Francs likewise steadied. Other continentals also rose, in sympathy. % GULF COAST HOMES DESERTED BEAUMONT, ‘Tex., Aug. 16.—Hun- dreds deserted their homes along the Gulf Coast between Port Arthur and Galveston last night and found refuge on high ground. Government storm warnings for all in the lowlands along the Gulf Coast and an vnusually high tide are the causes of the exodus. At Sabine and Sabine Pass the water is unusually rough and already has covered the jetties and is running high on the beach. No damage is reported to ‘shipping there. UITIZEN SOLDIERS EAHIBIT WEAKNESS IN RIFLE SHOOTING Mayor Mitchel of New York Makes One of. Best Showings at Plattsburg Camp. PLATTSBURG, N. Y., Aug. 16.—A red flag, indicating that the amateur soldier shooting at a target had made a clean miss, was the most con- spicuous thing on the rifle range of the military instruction camp here today, when the men attending the school were practicing shooting. Few citizen soldiers know how to handle their rifles. Among those who made _ good scores were Mayor John Purroy Mitchel of New York, George Whar- ton Pepper of Philadelphia and Rob- ert L. Bacon Jr. of New York: The firing was done at 200 vards by-companies and squads and officers in charge said that the men were making rapid progress. Each man was given five shots kneeling and five shots prone. West Point Cadets, 500 Strong, Start on a Week’s Hike, WEST POINT, N. Y., Aug. 16.—The entire battalion of cadets, more than 500 strong, accompanied by detach- ments of the U. S. Army regulars, all under command of Col. Morton F. Smith, commandant of cadets, marched out of the summer encamp- ment today on a week's hike which will carry them into Putnam and West Chester counties. The column moved as infantry, cavalry and artil- lery with a battery of mountain how- itzers on the backs of mules. The a will return to the post Sat- urday. KIRKWOOW MAN KILLED IN FALL FROM WINDOW OF IOWA HOTEL Jese R. French, Coffee Saleshman, Had Prepared to Retire and Was in Good Spiritz. MARSHALLTOWN, Io., Aug. 16.—Jes- se R. French of Kirkweed. Mo., a trav- eling salesman for a St. Louis coffes firm, was killed here at 12:10 a. m. today when he fell from a fourtl-story window of the Pilgrim Hotel, where he had registered for the night. French had disrobed tefore he fell. His head struck an iron railing around a basement window with such force that the railing was broken. His skull and both arms were fractured and his face was crushed. The housekeeper at the hotel said she had talked with French in his room at’ 10:30. p. m., when she went there on her rounds of the hootel. He appeared to be in good spirits, she said. At that hour Frencn had mailed some letters which he had spent the evening coyp- ing. There was an empty whisky bottle on the dresser. The Coroner, after in- vestigation, said he thought death was accidental. : Mrs. French, who ‘ives at 215 East Main street, Kirkwood, received word of her husband’s death through the Marshalltown Coroner.

MAN ACCUSED BY YOUNG GIRL STL HDES HS IDENTITY ‘Appears in Police Court, Gets ‘»Continuance; Employe of Prominent-St. Louwisan. The so-called ‘“‘man of mystery” held by the police on a charge annoying two little girls in Tower Grove Park, Saturday, continued to conceal his iden- tity when he appeared in police court today On a peace disturbance charge. He got a continuance until tomorrow so as to consult an attorney. He admitted that the name ‘“Johr. Wilkirson,”’ which he gave when arrest- ed, was fictitious, and he anxiously asked if the police thought he would be permitted to sign his own bond if he would secretly make known his iden- tity to Police Judge Hogan. He told reporters he was confidential clerk to a very prominent St. Louisan and wuuld lose his position if his identity became known. When arrested !e said he was a lawyer. Today the mysterious prisoner asked the police to notify Jones H. Parker, an attorney in the Mermod-Jaccard Building. “Parker will know me when he sees me and will help me out,” he said. Parker, when notified, visited the pris- oner. Afterward Parker told reporters the prisoner was a member of a fairly wealthy family. Parker refused to dis- close the prisoner's real name, and set about to obtain his release on bond. He said the prisoner maintained his inno- cence. The man was arrested on complaint of Grace Hill, 11 years old, and Alice Nuste, 9, who said he annoyed them when they were entering the Russell place gate at Tower Grove Park. He is about 4 years old, slender, of sal- low complexion, and partly bald. His air is dark, tinged with gray. When arrested he wore a blue serge coat and a lavender striped shirt.

London Pessimistic Over Ef- forts to United States; As- semblies Meet in 7 and Greece. Germans Advance Slowly in Russia; Von Buelow’s Men Still Held West of Dvina Barrier. | By Associated Press. LONDON, Aug. 16.—Military opera- tions in the eastern field are develop- ing slowly. Both sides show the ef+ fects of the intensity of the Warsaw struggle. The German advance now centers on the efforts of Field Marshal the Dvina and eastward in the general direction of Petrograd, and the rear ap- proach of the army of Prince Leopold of Bavaria to the new Brest-Litovek defense. Notwithstanding the steady pressure of the Germans, the Russians have succeeded thus far in holding them west of the Dvina. The Balkan crisis is drawing to a lie max. The National <Assembiies of Servia and Greecé meet today, with the probability of a definite decision as re+ gards Bulgaria’s territorial demands, upon which hinge the united action of the Balkan States with the allies. In the best posted quarters here the outlook is regarded with a degree of pessimism. It is expected Servia will seek a compromise and Greece will re- ject the Bulgarian contentions. Re- ports from Athens indicate that King Constantine is insisting the new Cabi- rnet must maintain, , the effect of which would be to. united Balkan co-operation with the al- lies. Meantime there are many evidences of Austro-German preparations to deal with the Balkan situation. According to information from Bucharest, Germaa army corps have been concentrated near the junction of Hungary, Rumania and Belgrade and the activity of Austrian artillery at many points along the Dan- ube, lends support to reports of a great Austro-German offensive in the Bal- kans. The outcome of the crisis is awaited most anxiously, as determining whether the allies will receive new support from the Balkans and whether Germany's supplies of ammunition for Turkey wil] continue to be shut off by the tit barrier. Bulgarian officials do not expect an agreement will be reached, but the Servian Minister at London, M. Bosh- xovitch, told the Associated Press he believed a middie ground would ode found on which it would be possible te unite the Balkan States. RUMANIA TO CUT KNOT IN BALKANS Her Action, Says London Paper, Will Show That She Knows . Bulgaria’s Decision. LONDON, Aug. 16.—The importance of the Balkan situation is emphasized by the morning papers, which point out particularly that events there may reach a crisis within 2% hours. King Charlies of Rumania called a special meeting of the Cabinet at neers yesterday, 'o which the leaders of all political par- ties, as well as influential members of the chamber, were summoned. The Servian national assembly will re assemble at Nish today, to receive « statement from Premier Pachitch on the Bulgarian negotiations. Simultaneous: ly, the Greek Parliament will meet at Athens to oust the present Cabinet, with the supporters of former Premier Veni- zelos as powerful as ever. The papers point out that Austria meanwhile is gathering troops on the Danube and that German writers afe advocating openly an advance to the Aegean Sea. The Daily News says, editorially, that Rumania may make a sudden move which will solve the Balkan deadlock. “Devisive action by Rumania,” says tude. which is the great danger point —thus, we are driven back, as al to a rift between the Budgar and a em von Hindenburg to force troops across Greece from participating in a plan of.

Three Times Usual Prices Paid for Rumanian Farm Products, PARIS, Aug. 16.—A delayed dispatch to the Havas News Agency, filed at Bu- charéest Saturday, says Austrian ani German agents along the Rumanian frontier are paying three times the nor- mal prices’ for wheat, corn, hay, flax, peas and beans exported from that coun- try. This is the result of heavy export taxes placed on Rumanian agricultural products Saturday, following the action of the Government on the previous day in removing the prohibition against ex- porting food supplies. The export tax amounts to from 400 to 1000 francs on a carload and from 200 to 600 francs on a farm wagon load. = Weakness of German Filanks Causes Optimism in Petrograd. PETROGRAD, Aug. 16.—The military situation is viewed by Russian army of- ficers with a degree of cptimism, owing to the manner in which the Germans have been checked at the crossings of the Rivers Liewic Krasna, east of the Siedice-Lukow front, where the invaders lost 800 prisoners in addition to a heavy toll of dead and wounded. Confidence is felt here that the Russians will be able to make further eastward progress of the invaders very costly to them. Fierce battles are looked for in the district between the Nurec and Narew Rivers and at the crossings of the Bug. The immediate German objective is believed to be the double-track rail- road which roughly parallels the pres- ent fighting line, running from Osso- wets to Bialystok, Brest-Litovsk and Kovel. This road is protected by dense forests and by the marshes of the re- gion of the upper Narew. The apparent weakness of the Ger- man flanks has removed fear that the Russian army would be bottled up. Evidence of this seeming lack of offen- sive power is found in the reported re- Renewal of the German offensive against the Dvina at Jacobstadt is fo- cussing attention on the Baltic region.

Taft declared that the people who believed that the decisions of the Su- preme Court in the anti-trust cases were going to bring about a return of old conditions were deceiving themselves. He said that certain interests had de- filed the people in the belief that they were going to continue such a course indefinitely, but he asserted the people would discover the conditions that cre- ated the evils and would work out a remedy. “The trouble about this defiance of the people is that you arouse them un- til they go on a rampage, and they overreach themselves,’ he said. ‘‘The conditions complained of in the indus- trial conditions of the present tim: are merely the aftermath of the cru- sade against plutocracy. “You are now paying a part of the cost of remedying the ealuses against which the people rose up. But do not think that the people havo not the £004 sense to correct any mistakes they have made in the treatment of corporations and business.”’ The crusade against corporations and bosses brought the bosses into such disrepute, he said, that all that was necessary to defeat a candidate was to put the label of the boss upon him. “I am able to advise you on this subject from experience,” he said, laugh- ing. “The people may misunderstand, but after you get a good jolt you can climb up into an apple tree and try to take a judicial view of what has hap- pened. That is what J am trying to Go." « The former President chuckled so audibly when he made this declaration, which referred to his own defeat in the last election, that the entire audience Joined in and laughed loudly. Discussing the tendencies toward tho initiative, referendum and recall, the former President said that some peo- ple seemed to have an idea that the remedy for the evils of democracy was more democracy. They had believed that by teking affairs into their own hands they would be able to construct a fool-proof, boss-proof, corruption- proof government. The general primary system was another of the fallacies cf democracy, he asserted. He declared that the initiative, referendum and the recall, and the primary system, worked badly. The political bosses always were on the alert, he said, and would find a way to control @ven with the use of these devices of government. Before his speech Taft smilingly evad- ed references to the gout, and assur. anxious inquirers that the condition of his foot was not the result of an acci- dent, but was due to “a purely local affection.’’ Discussing the Mextfcan situation, Taft expressed the same views which he gave in the East Saturday and which were published in the Sunday Post-Dispatch yesterday. He told a Post-Dispatch reporter that ‘ea believed the administration shonid have recognized Huerta as ruler of Mexico. “Preparations to do that very thing were under way when my administration ended,’ he said. | REGISTRY DAY IN ENGLAND CAUSES MANY 10 ENLIST Government Will Now Have Full Informaton on Labor and Military Resources. LONDON, Aug. 16.—Yesterday was National Registry day throughout the United Kingdom. Every person be- tween the ages of 15 and 65 was called upon to fill out a form giving age, oc- cupation and ability to do work useful to the state. The forms, distributed Saturday, be collected today and the Government will be in possession of complete formation as to the labor resources o*% the country and the number of men available for military service. The enumeration caused remarkable scenes in all parts of the country. Many young men, believing the registry means the inauguration of compulsory service and that men joining the army hereafter will be considered conscripts instead of volunteers, went to the re- cruiting offices which were kept open all day in some towns to offer their services. On the other hand, a number of young Irishmen working in England, Scotland and Wales returned to Ireland to some counties of which the registra. tion regulation did not apply. The departure of a party of these Irishmen from the Clyde was marked by a noisy demonstration. A crowd gathered at Greenock Harbor, jostled the prospective passengers and greeted them with cries of ‘“‘Cowards!’”’ In Glas- gow particularly, a large number of young men hastened their marriages, so they could be included among those listed as married in the national regis- ter. Simultaneously with the inauguration of the national register, the National Service League has issued a manifesto and called a series of public meetings throughout the country at which every fit man will be urged to offer his serv- icés to the country and resolutions wii) be passed calling on the Governmente“to place the nation under orders.” , Sylvia Pankhurst, famed as a militant suffragist, will not comply with the na- tional registry regulations, she asserts. “I am not going to register; that’s all I know about it,” declared Miss Pank- huret at a meeting followed by a dem- onstration of East London suffragettes. “For my part I think it merely a ruse te get more power out of the workers. I am not a man so they can’t take me to war, but thty won't sentence me to n munition factcry. They know there would be trouble.” will in- Sheridan Coal Co. Strike Settica. PITTSBURG, Kan.

REOPENED: $15,000 N SHOES MISSIN Abe Ginsberg Charged With Transferring Them to Friend and Collecting for Them. Referee in Bankruptcy Coles has taken a month’s vacation. in which re wilf decide what hus become of the $15.- 0 worth of shoes which were delivered at the front door of Abe Ginsberg’s snve store at 1900 South Broadway; whether they were carted away from the back door and, if so, who carted them and where to. The testimony bearing on these points, which he is undertaking to di- gest on his vacation, was taken at three secret hearings ar prior to his departure. Ginsberg went bankrupt i 1912 and his creditors lost $10,000. The case has been reopened in an endeavor to find out who got the shoes and collect something for the creditors. ‘Ginsberg had good credit and in the spring of 1912 placed orders for $15,000 worth of shoes. In November of that year he became sick. His friends urged him to have an operation performed. He made an agreement with a good friend and fellow merchant that he would take care of Mrs. Ginsberg and the children if Ginsberg died. The agreement was witnessed by a rabbi. Wife Conducted the Store. Ginsberg was in the hospital a long time. His wife ccnducted the store. From timt to time shipments of shoes were received at the front door. There was testimony at the hearing that as fast as the shocs came to the front door they were havied away from the back door to the store of Ginsberg’s friend and fellow merchant. CATHOLICS URGED TO MAKE UNIVERSAL REQUEST FOR PEACE Report of Secretary of American Fed- eration at Convention at Trledo, 0., Also Takes Up Mexican Outrages. TOLEDO, 0O., Aug. 16.—A review of the recent activities of the American Federation of Catholic Societies is con- tained in the report of Anthony Matre of St. Louis, the national secretary, submitted at today’s session of the con- vention of the federation. A recommen- dation that the federation adopt a reso- lution urging the restoration of peace in Europe and that Catholic organiza- tions the world over be asked to par- ticipate in a universal request for peace was contained in the report. A special committee, consisting of the Rev. Richard H. Tierney and John Wha- len of New York and Henry V. Cun- ningham, the report said, had called on President Wilson and the Secretary of State and submitted to the latter cer- tified documents disclosing many out- rages committed in Mexico against the Catholic Church, priests and sfster- hoods. An extensive review of the fed- eration’s crusade against indecent the- atrical performances, moving picture shows, pictures and postcards, also was contained in the report. In this connection it was reported that the branch federation in St. Louis had suppressed 51,935 indecent and sugges- tive postcards.

That would be at the expense of Hungary, whose repre- sentation in the mutual Parliament would be reduced. In short, Hungary, at present, has one-half of the dele- gates; the number would be reduced to one-third with the creation and entrance of Poland into the empire. To overcome this opposition of the Hungarians, wno assert that they have suffered too heavy sacrifices in this war to be expected to agree to a reduction of their influence in imperial affairs, Poland, will have to content herself with a proportionately smaller delegation or some other way may be found to get around the diffi- culty when we arrive at that stage. However, these are details which we have not reached.”’ Jaworski is not one of the irrecon- cilable Polish leaders wno dream of the restoration of Poland’s former geo- graphical lines. He is a realist in polli- tics, inclined to take a very practical view of what is possible and what is not. “You speak of a Polish state of Rus- sian or ‘Congress’ Poland, together with Galicia, and not of a united Poland,”’ I ventured. “United Poland Unrealizable.” “Yes, that is one of the reproaches thrown at us—that we proposé to aban- don the German Potes. The restora- tion of United Poland is a dream, Uto- pian, unrealizable. We must see things as they are, with practical ¢yes. Cer- tainly we cannot expect Germany, after her tremendous sacrifices in the war against Russia, to be willing to cede a portion,of its territory once occupied by her peoples to a new Polish nation. “That would be a hopeless expecta- tion and something that scarcely could be asked in view of what Germany has done toward freeing Poland. We have not forgotten German Poles. We will not forget them. We do hope that the handicap of laws passed againat them will be removed, and we will work to- ward that end. But that they will be- come a part of the new Polish kingdom is out of the question.” Jaworski pointed out that Russian Poland is four and a third times larger than Belgium and has one and one-half times Belgium's population. A new Poland looks to America, but not selfishly, to help “-r to rise. to be herself again. Poland's chief industries are textile, with 1166 mills, employing 150,35 persons and Jaworski declared that many textile works have been de- stroyed in the war and expressed the hope that in the event of the creation of a Polish kingdom it would be posst- ble to get American capital to rebuild and reorganize the textile industry. “If America will loan us money for that purpose, whengsuch a time comes, it would, in turn, have a large market for cotton,” he said. to Germany and Austria as a buffer State to Russia can be instantly under- stood by any student of European poli- tics. Neither in Berlin nor Vienna is it believed that the present war, no mat- ter how badly Russia be defeated, will end the Russian danger for Central Bu- rope. . Russia Certain to “Come Back.” It is declared that a nation whose pop- vlation has increased from 62,000,000 in 1842 to 166,000,000 in 1912, and has such biological force that her annual) birth- rate is 3,000,000, or 45,000,000 in the last 15 years, as against Germany's 12,000,000, is certain to “come back.”’ The Russian professor, Mastaryk es- timates that the popuiation of Russia in 1930 will be 220,000,000; Germany 90,- 000,000, and that in the year 2000 Euro- pean Russia will have 400,000,000, and Asiatic Russia 500,000,000 as against Ger- many’s 165,000,000. These figures far-sighted diplomats and military men have itn mind when they demand that Poland be developed as a wall to stem any future Russian deluge that might overwhelm Central Europe. The whole world knows that the Poles are fighters of traditional! bravery. Nine million of the 12,000,000 people in Poland are Roman Catholics, and I am informed that the Pope is deeply inter- ested in the tenes to revivify the Polish kingdom.

PROSECUTOR FILES TWO SUITS TO TEST STATE OLEO LAWS Apparent Conflict Found in Statutes, One of “Which Forbids Sale of Colored Product. Prosecuting Attorney Sidener this morning filed two cases intended to test an apparent conflict in the State laws as to the sale of colorad oleomargarine. One of them was against William Free, proprietor of a stand at Union Market and the other against DPD. A. Blanton, a butterine manufacturer. who aupplies Free’s shop. Complaints were made by E. G. Ben- nett, State Dairy Commissioner, and R. I L. Marrs, his deputy. Marrs declares he bought colored oleorrargarine at Free’s stand that was not properly marked as such and thet he obtained a package of colored oleo from W. IL Bennington, an agent of Flanton, at the letter’s place of business. The conflict is betwecn a etatute which forbids the sale «1 colored olee within the State of M’sscuri and one which provides that ca/cred oleo shall not be sold unless it is indelibly marked as such.

STIS POST-OISPATCH MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 16, 1915. ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH MANY SCHEMES SUPGESTED T0 AID PERMANY HERE New York World Prints Let- ters in Which Writers Of- fered to Start Strikes in Munitions Factories if Ex- penses, $50,000, Were Paid. — Another Writer Suggested Buying Up Wright Aero- plane Plant; No Evidence That Embassy Took Up the Ideas. Interesting Report of Military Attache Outlining Pro- posed Trade Agreement Amongst Manufacturers to Stop. Export of Chlorine Gas to Allies. By Leased boomy From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 16.—The World to- day prints the second installment of its series of articles purporting to show the . inner workings of German agents and German-Americans who are promoting the German propaganda in this country. The article consists chiefly of letters showing that German-Americans active in promoting the cause of their father- land made several suggestions designed ultimately to reach the German Em- bassy, in the interest of the German cause: 1. A suggestion to purchase the Wright aeroplane factory and patents for $50,000 and thus deprive the allies of a source of important supplies. ,2. To promote a great mass meeting in Chicago which should adopt resolutions favoring a governmental embargo on arms. 3. An offer by an unidentified person, who asked that his offer be placed be- fore the German Ambassador, to try to foment strikes in ammunition and au- tomobile factories, the expense to be about $50,000 4.A memorandum written by Capt. von Papen, military attache of the German embassy, of steps that had been taken to halt, if possible, the ship- ment of chlorine gas to the allies, by means of a trade agreement on the part of the three American concerns engaged in its manufacture. The article does not present any evi- dence to show that any of the sugges- tions which their originators desired to get before the German Ambassador was ever carried out, and obviously the plan to stop the shipment of chlorine gas, outlined by Capt. v Papen, would be merely a matter the manufactur- ers and entirely legitimate. The letter suggesting that a strike should be started was written by one C. W. McLane, who is not identified, to C. Denacher, also not identified, who was asked to get it before the German Am- bassador. The letters follow: Received at Imperial German Embassy, Washington, Military Attache, July 1, 19 ~~ Dear Mr. Marlow: Herewith I send ' you.a copy of a letter which I received from Detroit several days ago. According to the information to whic. . §t refers, it has reference in the first place to one of the indorsers of the ceemmittee of the Ironworkers. My surety, who talked the opportunity over with the sender, is of the opinion that the last step in the situation will be te call into being a strike in the muni- tions factories of Detroit, Cleveland and Cincinnati, in so far as the necessary financial means can be secured. Ac- cording to our estimates, it could be done for about $50,000. Our friend K. will come to New York on Thursday, or in the course of next week, in order to talk over with you personally the opportunity. Until that time he will keep the sender there. “With best regards, yours devoted, Cc. DENCKER, The copy of the letter referred to in the foregoing is as follows: Dear Sir: Should you be interested in a plan for precipitating a general strike of all the automobile workers, includ- ing the allie? industries in this city, the writer would be glad to consult with you at your office or through your accredited representative here. I have reason to know that workers are very much dissatisfied with the part they are playing in the European war and that with proper handling they would present a mighty protest against the persons responsible. Wire immediately upon receipt of this communication to 2237 Dime Bank, this city, if interested. All negotiations mus: be strictly confidential. Very truly vours, ; Cc. W. McLANE The man referred to as “K.” is not identified, although the World says that he is believed to be a certain labor leader well known in the metal trades. Capt. von Papen’s memorandum fol- lows: The memorandum is dated New York, July 7, 1915, and is as follows: (Translation. ) NEW YORK, July 7. Steps taken to prevent the exportation of Hquid chlorine. This morning I had a talk with Dr. Hirschiand, the local representative of the Goldschmidt Detaining Co., Essen. and Dr, Grenstein, consulting engineer of _ the Electro Bleaching Gas Co., Buffalo, wherein the following was brought out: _ England and France have been since _ September, 1914, in the market for liquid _ chlorine and are working through a cer- tain Dalbrun (Italian). The negotia- 3 tions are being carried on with renewed | ’ since Germans used chroline gas : in the battle of Ypres, and contracts : ey ada corns are’ nekos the quantities in England.

The young heir to the Russian throne appears a likely youngster who seems to have outgrown his invalidism: York, for which Dalbrun is furnishing the receptacles. Altogether there are only three firms which produce liquid chlorine to be con- sidered: 1. Castner Chemical Co., Buffalo. 2. Electro Bleaching Gas Co., Buffalo. 3. Goldschmidt Detaining Co. The first two firms are pure American, the last one 60 per cent German, for which reason a delivery by the last one to the allies is out of the question. The Castner Chemical Co. has appar- ently closed long-term chemical con- tracts with France, and is delivering 5 to 75 tons monthly. The cost of pro- duction amounts to about 5 cents a pound, the selling price 8 cents. The liquid chlorine business would not of itself be very inviting if it were not for the fact that on the other hand caustic soda is gained, the price of which is very high. The manufacture of this preparation produces, however, almost automatically, an equal amount of liquid chlorine. While, then, the Castner.company is delivering all available’ material, the Electro Bleaching Co. has up to this time refrained from delivering, princi- pally because of the excuse that satis- factory steel receptacles for transpor- tation are not available. However, since Dalbrun has received permission from Col. Dunn (chairman of the Commission for Railway Supplies) to transport liquid chlorine in drums of one-ton capacity instead of in’ steel flasks, and after Dalbrun places these drums at the dis- posal of the company, there will be no further ground for their refusal to de- liver. Dr. Orenstein says that the firm, in view of their close personal connection with him, and in view of the German business manager, Dr. Neuhaus, has not as yet closed any contracts with Dalbrun, especially as the president of the company, Dr. Kingsley, up to this time has always met the wishes of these gentlemen. Agreement Against Allies. It will be impossible, however, for this to’go on any length of time, as the shareholders wish the profits to be derived therefrom. Dr. Orenstein, there- fore, suggests that an agreement be consummated with the Efectro Bleach- ing Co., through its president, Kings- ley, whereby the delivery of liquid chlo- rine by this country to France and En- gland will be stopped. A suggested plan is inclosed herewith. From a military standpoint I deem it very desirable to consummate such an agreement, in order to stop thereby the further exportation of about 52 tons of liquid chlorine monthly, especially in is only one factory (Rouen) which can produce this stuff in small amounts, while it is only produced in very small PAPEN. The reference to the mass meeting and proposed resolutions for an embargo on arms is written by one P. Reiswitz, who is not identified, and the person to whom the letter is addressed is not named in the World. This letter con- tains the suggestion that the Wright factory and patents be purchased. The writer suggests that this could be done with about $50,000. The letter describes at length the hopes of the writer for a great mass meeting in Chicago, and con- cludes with the paragraph: “Please be kind enough to let me know as soon as possible whether the Ambassador is interested in the matter (the purchase of the Wright plant for $50,000), and if so, whether he will see Mr. von Alvens- leben (the man who was to present all the details of the suggestion for pur- chasing the Wright plant).

The engagernent dated from before the war. After being so frightfully wounded Cantere offered to release his fiancee from her promise. She refused. Upon the official excusing the bride- groom from signing the register, the bride spoke up with charming and ten- der eagerness: ‘Yes, yes, he can sign. rather.

Ko- busch of St. Louis was indignant when asked by a reporter today whether there was any basis for the story in the New York Herald this morning that he was one of the promoters of the Bridgeport Projectile Works plant, which, it is said, is being built to manfacture shrapnel cases and ammunition on a large scale for Germany. ‘‘T never even heard of such an enter- prise,” said Kobusch at the Hotel Mc- Alpin: “No one ever suggested that I should take an interest in such an en- terprise."’ He would Refining Company Advances, Wages.

J Industrial Commission Investi- gators Criticise Standard Oil Wages and Methods. INDEPENDENCE” , “RESENTS General Manager Declared to Believe Children Should Go to Work Earlier. Bw Associated Press. CHICAGO, Aug. 16.—The report of George P. West and C. T. Chenery, who investigated the July (1915) strike of Standard Oil Co. employes’ at Bay- onne, N. J., for the United States Com- mission on Industrial Relations, was made public last night by Frank P. Walsh, chairman of the commission. The report says in part, after stating that the strike was against the Stand- ard Oil Co. of New Jersey: “The company is the most important of-the Standard Oil group, and this group is the principal contributor to the wealth, prestige and power of the larg- est estate in the country, if not in the world, that of Mr. John D. Rockefeller Sr. and his immediate family. The facts regarding the company’s labor Policies must, therefore, be regarded as of special significance because of the tremendous power wielded by the group of men who control this industry, and because of their announced intention to enter the field of industrial relations with a view to widening their influence and’ actively propagating what they deem to be the proper theories and prin- ciples that should govern the relations between employer and employe. “Findings of Fact.” The following findings of fact are to be considered in the light of the fore- going: “The Standard Oil Co. of New Jer- sey, although conducting an enormously profitable enterprise, pays Wages too low to maintain a family on a comfort- able, healthful basis. “It fixes wages, not with relation to the earning of the company, but by tak- ing into consideration Wages paid hy cther companies in the same locality end then fixing the wage as low as, or lower, than the prevailing wage in thiut locality. In Bayonne it paid common laborers less than those of two com- panies whose plants adjoin its refineries. This is in direct contradiction to the claims of the company, in a statement issued at 26 Broadway, that it has al- ways paid the prevailing wage or bet- ter. The statement of the genera] man- ager of the company that the interests of other Companies in the same loca)- ity are considered in the fixing of wages constitutes in effect an admission that the company combines with the poorest and least generous employers to fix the wage rate. “The company maintains a_ settled rolicy of refusing to deal with any la- bor organization or ‘professional labor man,’ and even refuses to permit those employes who cannot speak English in- telligently to engage an attorney a# their spokesman and representative.” Developing this last point further in the report it is stated that Paul Supin- sky, a Jersey City attorney, visited Gen- eral Superintendent Hennessy of the company, as spokesman for a commit- tee of six employes who had hired him to negotiate for them. It is further stated that Hennessy, “acting in con- junction with Mr. Gifford, general man- ager of the company, refused point blank to consider the .demands and ex- have engaged a nonemploye of the com- pany to aid them in presenting their grievances.”’ “Independence Resented.” “The men are made to understand,”’ the report continues, “that they must seek no outside assistance in their deal- ings with the management and that anv show of independence or any hint of compulsion will be vigorously resented. “The company has instituted no ma- chinery by which real or fancied griev- ances may be peacefully and promptly adjusted. The officials say that any man has access to the general superin- tendent, but the employes allege that they would be discharged before reach- ing the office. “General Manager Gifford is not a believer in child labor legislation, and, on the other hand, thinks the children should be allowed to go to work earlier. He and Mr. Hennessy apparently have little respect for the foreign-born men whose labor produces the company’s earnings and are proponents of the ex- tremely individualistic and reactionary industrial theories ._discarded by en- lightened employers and by economists many years ago.” The report then recites that the com- pany employed a detective agency of New York City to furnish guards and strike breakers. It quoted the attorney for the agency as referring to these men as,“‘a lot of thugs.’” The investi- gators added: “Their appearance am- ply justified his use of the term.” Sherif¢ Criticised. “The strike was broken by Sheriff Eugene Kinkead,"’ the report states “who first overawed and disorganized the strikers by assaulting and arrest- ing one of their leaders and then strengthened his control over them by promising to use his influence to obtain an increase in wages and by arresting 80 of the armed guards.” In another section of the report it is stated that the Sheriff's alleged assault was upon “a young Elizabeth City S»- cialist by the name of Jeremiah Baly.” The report asserts that the Sheriff had suggested Baly as a member of the Strike Committee and when the men went to the plant to draw back pay insisted that Baly should go wita them. It fs further stated in the re- port that Baly, not being an employe of the company, refused to go to the pay window and (hat the Sheriff firer ‘beat him viciously’’ and then arrest- ed him. “Sheriff Kinkead’s course had the —| cordial approyal of the Standard Oil ony : e Ee SLD ee lan atitennadl — | Co. officials who were thus enabled to pressed indignation that the men shoud) maintain their refusal to make any con- cession to the men until the men re- turned to work and had in effect thrown themselves on the bounty of the com- pany, ’” continues the report. “Two days after the men had returned [ to work, the Standard Oil Co. announced increases in wages. These increases were less than those demanded by the strikers and the rates now being paid are still below those pald by one of the other companies adjoining the Standard Oil Co.’s plant, if the common labor rate can be taken as a basis of com- parison. “The outcome of the strike const!- tutes a complete victory for the Stand- ard Oil Co. as to its vital policies, that is, its refusal to recognize or permit collective action’ or to make any con- cession to the men except of its own free will and accord.” Cause of the First Riot. The report gives a rong history of the strike and of the disorder which ac- companied it. It accused the Standard Oil Co. of urging the Bayonne police to keep strikers off the streets, and as- serts that the attempt to do so caused the first riot on July 20. The arrival] of strike-breakers from New York City, on July 21, is blamed in the report for a conflict between the police and strik- ers, and it is stated further that, as a result, the local police asked Sheriff Kinkead to send deputies to Bayonne. The report says further that the city officials notified the- Standard Oil Co. and the Tidewater Oil Co. “that they would have to make preparations for their own defense.” The arrival of armed guards is then recited and it is said that the strikers attacked the Tidewater plant July “2, after the guards had fired on men and boys who threw stones. “A few strikers had armed themselves with cheap and ineffectual revolvers with which ‘they futilly returned the deadly fire of Winchesters in the hands cf the guards,”’ says the report. It is stated that the commander of one section of the guards had been in charge of guards at Roosevelt, N. J, in January, when 20 strikers were kille+ or wounded, and that because of the July 22 riot these men were discharged by the oil companies. The activities of the Sheniff in his efforts to settle the strike are then detailed at considerabie length. Chapters of the report are also de- voted to a discussion of the use of armed guards in strikes, to the standard of living and comparative wages in Ba- yonne and to correspondence between the investigators and the oil companies.

BROWNSVILLE, Tex., Aug. 16.—A de. tachment of United States cavalry pa- trol last night from the Mexican side of the Rio Grande at Prwo- near Mercedes, about 30 miles was fired on rresso, up the Rio Grande from here. the The cav- fire and the shooting from the Mexican aide stopped. There were no casualtics among the American troopers. Reports of renewec attempts by Mex- ican bandits to reorganize their bandg in the lower Rio Grande Valley were brought here today by J. J. Sanders, captain of Texas Rangers. He said he had received reports that Mexicans were crossing in ones and tiros into Texas and that they were at- tempting to gather again in Hidalgo County, west of Brownsville. Sunday, he said, a dozen approached a ranch house near San Benito, sending twv to the house. The rancher’s wife was at home alone. The Mexicans told her did not wish to hurt her. They asked where her husband and his horses were. After satisfying themselves that both the man of the house and the horses were away, the Mexicans left. The Twenty-sixth Infantry, from Tex- as City, went on duty here today. About 7 men of the Twenty-sixth were left at Kingsville, 115 miles north of Browns- ville, and more than two campanies went on patrol at Harlingen, between here and Kingsville. Rangers and peace of- ficers are disarming all Mexicans outside of the larger towns throughout the Brownsville section. Firearms discov- ered in the possession of Mexicans in rural communities of this section is prac tically equivalent to a death warrant unless that Mexican is well known to Americans as being peaceful. Even with such a record, firearms are confiscated and a warning given not to obtain any more. There is a State law against ‘‘pistol toting,”’ but Mexicans in the country about here have avoided penalties of this law by Carrying rifles. The em bar- gO On arms and ammunition which rang- ers have put on Mexicans on the Ameri- can side is the most effective munitions embargo on record in this valley. Penal- ties for smuggling through this ranger embargo is death. airymen returned TOT WEATHER DRINK Horsford’s Acid Phosphate A’ teaspoonful added to a giase of cold tea or water, with sugar, is delightfully refreshing. TEAMSTERS' STRIKE ENDS; WAGES MORE, WORKDAY SHORTER -_ Agreement of Men and Employ- ers Due to Mediation by Father Dempsey. The freight transfer drivers. number- ing about 1000, who had been on a strike for two days, went back to work this morning, in accordance with an agree- ment reached yesterday as the result of mediation by Father Timothy Dempsey. pastor of St. Patrick’s Church, and founder of the Workingman’s Hotel. It was agreed that the drivers would accept wage increases amounting to ap- proximately 50 cents a week for each man. They had asked for increases ranging from $1.50 to $2 a week. A reduction of time also was granted by the team owners. Drivers will re- port for work at 6:30 a. m. instead of 6 c’clock, and overtime will begin at 6:20 p. m. instead of 6:35. Any fraction of an hour after 6:20 p. m. will be pala for as a full hour. Drivers will not be required to report for work on Sun- day. Any driver who is to be laid off will be so notified the night before. The agreement is for two years. Father Dempsey began his efforts toward mediation Saturday morning, when he telephoned to representatives of the teamsters’ union and the employ- ers’ organization and suggested that in the interest of the general public a con- ference should be held. Both sides agreed to this and each appoirited a Con- ference Committee. At a meeting of these committees Saturday night an agreement was reached on all points except the wage increase. The team owners were still unwilling to raise the wage scale. The result of the conference was re- ported to the men at a meeting at Cen- tral Trades and Labor Union headquar- ters yesterday afternoon and the tenta- tive agreement reached at the Saturday right conference was rejected because it did not provide for a wage increase. Another conference resulted in the team owners agreeing to a wage in- crease. Father Dempsey attended the conference and accompanied the com- mittee when it went to Central Trades Hall to report the second agreement to the men. This agreement was ratified. Father Dempsey made a speech and was loudly cheered and the strike was over. Trade Tourist Entertained in Chile. SANTIAGO, Chile, Aug. 164.—Dr. Leo 8.

The Police Department came into pas- session yesterday of one cinhamon bea- for which it had no use. This morning it was taken in a patrol wagon to the Forest Park Zoo. Up to yesterday bruin belonged te }. J. Morris of 3693 Olive street, who had it chained to a stake in the back yard. Wednesday night it got loose and start- ed for the white lights at Grand av- enue and Olive street, but was headed off by Morris and the police and tiel up. Saturday night it repeated the performance and spread some corm- sternation through the neighborhood. Morris and the police again captured it and returned it to captivity. Morris was so well pleased with the way the police performed under the trying circumstances that yesterday he notified Capt. Johnson of the Laclede Station that he was going away ani the police could have the bear. the Police Department wanted. Capt. Johnson called up the Zoo and offerei to deliver the beast free and was told to bring it out.

GERMANY AND AUSTRIA SOLD ARMS T0 BRITAIN WHEN THE BOERS COULD NOT GET ANY American Note to Austria Calls Attention to Fact — Upholds Right to Sell Munitions to Allies. By the Associated Press. ? WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.—The United States, in a note to Austria- Hungary, published today, firmly but of the “Vienna Government that the export of arms to the allies be stopped.ja The communication is in reply to the ed States, in permitting the export o lating the ‘‘spirit’’ of neutrality. politely declines to accept the request recent Austrian protest that the Unit- f arms to Austria’s enemies, was Vvio- The American note is a flat denial of that contention, and rigorously upholds the right of the United States, under international law, to export war munitions. In justification of its position, the United States recites, among other things, that international law, the prac- tice of nations, the security of the United States and other nations without large military or naval establishments and neutrality itself are opposed to pro- hibiting the export of war munitions by a neutral to a belligerent in time of war. Can’t Deny Right to Buy Here. The United States contends that it cannot deny to others the right which it claims for itself to purchase war mu- nitions from a neutral in event of a foreign attack. United States hints that it might have to buy from neutrals if attacked. The note recites the fact that Austria- Hungary and Germany supplied muni- tions of war to Great Britain during the Boer war when England’s enemies could not import such supplies; and a statls- tical table of such sales is appended. It suggests that, had Austria and Ger- many refused to sell arms to Great Britain at that time “on the ground tha’ to do so would violate the spirit of strict neutrality,” those countries “might with greater consistency and greater force urge their present con- tention.’’ Text of American Note. Following is the full text of the Amert- can reply to the Austro-Hungarian note: “The Secretary of State to Ambassador Penfield. “Department of State. “Washington, Aug. 12, 1915. “Please present a note to the Roya! Foreign Office, in reply to its note of June 29, in the following sense: “The Government of the United States has given careful consideration to the statement of the Imperial and Royal Government in regard to the exportation of arms and ammunition from the United |} States to the countries at war with Austria-Hungary and Germany. “The Government of the United States notes with satisfaction the recognition by the Imperial and Royal Government of the undoubted fact that its attitude with regard to the export of arms and) ammunitions is prompted by its inten- tion ‘to maintain the strictest neutral- ity and to conform to the level of the provisions of the international treaties,’ but is surprised to find the Imperial and Royal Government implying that the ob- servance of the strist principles of the law under the cuwnditions which have developed in the present war is insuffi- cient, and asserting that this Govern. ment should go beyond the long recog- nized rules governing such traffic by neutrals and adopt measures to ‘main- trin an attitude of strict parity with respect to both belligerent parties.’ No Obligation to Change Rules. "To this assertion of an obligation to change or modify the rules of interna- tional usage, on account of special con- ditions, the Government of the United States cannot accede. The recognition of an obligation of this sort, unknown to the international practice sf the past, would impose on every neutral nation a duty to sit in judgment on » the progress of a war and to restrict its commercial intercourse with a bellig- erent whose naval successes prevented the neutral from trade with the en- emy. “The contention of the Imperial and Royal Government appexrs to be that the advantages granted tw a belligerent by its superiority on the sea should be equalized by the neutral Powers by the j establishment of a system of non-in- tercourse with the victor. . “The Imperial and Roy:!l Government confines its comments to arms and am- munition but, if the principle for which it contends is sound, it should apply with equal force to all articles of contraband. A belligerent controlling the high seas might possess an enormous supply of arms and ammunition but be in want of food and clothing. On the novel prin- ciple that equalization is a neutral! duty, neutral nations would oe obligated to place an embargo on such articles be- cause one of the belligerents could not obtain them through commercial! inter- course. Principle Applied on Land. “But if this principle, so strongly urged by the Imperial and Royal Gov- ernment, should be admitted to obtain, by reason of the superiority of a bellig- erent at sea, ought not it to operate eyually as to a belligerent superior on land? Applying this theory of cqual- ization, a belligerent who lacks the —? munitions to contend suc- ly on land ought to be permit- ted to purchase them from neutrals while a belligerent, with an abundanve of war stores or with the power to pro- duce them, should be debarred from such traffic. “Manifestly the idea of strict neutral. ity advanced by the Imperial and Royal Government would involve a neutral nation in a mass of perplexities which would obscure the whole field of in- ternational obligation, produce economic confusion and deprive all commerce and industry of legitimate fields of enterprise already heavily burdened by the unavoidable restrictions of war. Germany Sold Munitions, “In this connection it is pertinent to direct the attention of the Imperial and Royal Government to the fact that Aus- tria-Hungary and Germany, particular- ly the latter, have, during the years preceding the present European war, In this connection, the, them suggest or apply the principle now advocated by the Imperial and Royal Government. “During the Boer war between Great Britain and the South African republics, the patrols of the coasts of neighboring neutral colonies by British naval ves- sels. prevented arms and ammunition reaching the Transvaal or the Orange Free State. The allied republics were in a situation almost identical in that respect with that in which Austria- Hungary and Germany find themselves ‘at the present time. “Yet, in spite of the commercial iso- lation of one belligerent, Germany sold tv Great Britain, the other belligerent, hundreds of thousands of kilos of ex- plosives,” gunpowder, cartridges, shot and weapons, and it is known that Aus- tria-Hungary’ also sold similar muni- tlons to the same purchasers, though in small quantities. WhiJle, as compared with the present war, the quantities were small (a table of the sale. is ap- pended), the principle of neutrality in- volved was the same. “If, at that time, Austria-Hungary and her present ally had refused to sell arms and ammunition to Great Britain, on the ground that to do so would vio- late the spirit of strict neutrality, the Imperial and Royal Government might, with greater consistency and greater | force, urge its present contention. Arms 6oel4 te Russians, “It might be further pointed out that, during the Crimean war, large quantities; of arms and military stores were fur- rished to Russia by Prussian manufac- turers; that, during the recent war be- tween Turkey and Italy, as this Gov- ernment is advised, arms and ammuni- tion were furnished to the Ottoman Government by Germany, and that, dur- ing the Balkan war, the belligerents were supplied with munitions by both Austria-Hungary and Germany. While these latter cases are not analogous, as in the case of the South African war, to the situation of Austria-Hungary and Germany in the present war, they nev- ertheless clearly indicate the long es- tablished practice of the two empire; in the matter of trade in war supplies. ‘In view of the foregoing statements, this Government is réluctant to believe that the Imperial and Royal Govern- ment will ascribe to the United States lack of impartial neutrality tn contin- uing its legitimate trade in all kinds of supplies used to render the armed forces of a belligerent efficient, even though the circumstances of the present war prevent Austria-Hungary from obtain- ing such supplies from the markets of the United States which have been and remain so far as the action and policy of this Government are concerned, open to all belligerents alike. Practical Reason for U. 8S. Attitude. “But, in addition to the question of principle, there is a practical and sub- stantial reason why the Government of the United States has, from the founda- tion of the republic to the present time, advocated and practiced unrestricted trade in arms and military supplies. It has never been the policy of this country to maintain in time of peace a large military establishment or stores of arms and ammunition sufficient to repel invasion by a well-equipped and powerful enemy. “It has desired to remain at peace with all rations and to avoid any ap- pearances of menacing such peace by the threat of its armies and navies. In consequence of this standing policy, the United States would, in the event of attack by a foreign Power, be, at ths outset of the war, seriously if not fa- tally embarrassed by the lack of arms and ammunition and by the means to produce them in sufficient quantities to supply the requirements of national defense. The United States _has always depended upon the right and power t. purchase arms and ammunition from —— nations in case of foreign at- Continued on Next Page.

Fifteen members of the Delta Sigma Theta fraternity of St. Louis Univer- sity went to the Meramec River near Valley Park this morning and resumed the search for the body of their frater- nity fellow, Richard Haines, who was drowned there yesterday afternoon whi'e playfully “ducking” a girl companion. Haines was 2% years old, lived at 1818 Rutger street, and would have been graduated in dentistry next June. The search for the body was witnesseA by Miss Norma Rausch, 20 years old, of 1614 Sourth Eighteenth street, and Miss Nell Hatfield of 26388 Accomac street Haines was with them and Albert Can- man Jr. of 6 Shaw place, when he lost his life. Miss Rausch and Haines, whila bath- ing with their companiuns, had waded out about 15 feet from the bank, where the water was not more than five feet deey Haines playfully pushed Miss Rausch in an effort to “‘duck’”’ her, and they went under the water together into a step-off about 15 feet deep. Miss Rausch came to the surface, and waited a moment for Haines. He could not swim and he never came to the surface. Miss Rausch swam into shal- low water and, with her companions, began a search for Haines. ‘ Haines’ relatives were notified. His three brothers, Fire Capt. Robert Haines of No. 1%, Fireman Thomas Haines of No. #, and Patrolman Harry Haines went to the scene and joined in the search for the body. Haines was a son of the late Thomas Haines, who until his death three years ago was a district fire chief. JUDGE REFUSES TO APPOINT RECEIVER. FOR PRINTING CONCERN Court Will Exercise Jurisdiction Over Affairs of Collins’ Company; Or- ders Salaries Cut. Circuit Judge Anderson ltuday refused to appoint a temporary receiver for the H. 8S. Collins Printing Co. at 1324 “‘Wash- ington avenue, but directed that the president of the corporation cut his sal- ary from $5000 a year to $250 a month an] to reduce the pay of certain other offi- cers and several employes 25 per cen‘. The appointment of a receiver was asked for by George C. Becht, a stockholder, who objected to the management of the business under Collins. The company’s attorney, Walter Davis, represented to the Court that Collina was capable of managing the company which, he said, has several profitable printing contracts, among them beinz one for the printing of the city directory. To appoint a receiver, he said, might be harmful. Judge Anderson said a receiver would mean additional expense to the corpora- tion for big fees to him and his attor- ney and that to save this expense the Court itself would exercise jurisdiction over the concern’s affairs and require a report at stated intervals.

The chair was tilted against the wall and Kneumann kicked it over, throwing Sil- verman to the sidewalk and upsetting the whole neighborhood. Silverman's cries for help attracted his daugher, Sadie, and his son-in-law, Max Greenfield. The latter fired a shot in the air and William Kneumann, 21 years old, a brother of Albert, ran to the Silverman home, while Miss Silver- man was holding his brother and calling for the police. The Kneumanns and _é Silvermans fought until patrolmen arrived qnd ar- rested the brothers. William Kneumann broke away and, in effecting his recapture, a patrolman fired several shots in the air. The Kneumanns were held on a charge of peace disturbance. Man Robs Ohioan of $59. Charles F.

In short, teach her properly to appreciate her mission and capabilities, and she will never think of bartering them for tinsel. In the field of education modern conditions complicate the problem. Over six million Amer- fean women “make” their own living. Then, those whose perspective forces a suspicion of ulti- mate bread-making exertion must add to their general girlhood equipment useful attainments ‘that will fit them for independence. In fact, since the greatest foe to girl life is idleness, lack of sensible occupation, and the satisfaction of use- fulness, such addition might wisely be made uni- versal. But let us not for one instant lose sight of the girl in such utilitarian processes. Though @ materially useful member of the human species, she must never step down from the platform her. The queen, though doing the needful in the slums, is still the queen. = =] i gk There is a French Corporal who is three feet six inches tall. There is danger that he may be overlooked when promotion day comes. | = = i i A MAKING HARD COAL CHEAPER. After years of unsuccessful effort in the courts, the first effective blow at the Hard Coal Trust has just been struck by the Interstate Commerce Commission. The board finds thet the freight charges on hard coal, not only to tidewater, but to the in- | terior, are unreasonably high, and orders what is called a “sweeping reduction.” It finds that preferential service has been given mining companies in which the railroads are in- terested and orders it discontinued. This finding coincides with that of every disin- terested investigation made in recent years into the causes of the excessive price of hard coal. It is confirmed by the size of the incomes, the rate of dividends and the price of the stock of the hard coal roads even in times of the greatest stringency on other roads. This oppressive trust, in which mining inter- ests and transportation interests are linked, has been in a position to control both of the chief elements entering into the cost of hard coal to the consumer—the price of the coal at the mines and the freight charge. Controlling the outlet from the anthracite region, it has preferred to make the freight charge excessively high. For the effect on the few independent coal producers it has kept the price of coal at the mines com- paratively low. The announcement ‘of the relief which the In- terstate Commerce Commission promises the pub- lic appeared simultaneously with a particularly foolish attack on the commission made by the St. Louis Republic. That paper declares that Con- gress cannot get at the commission nor can the President nor the voters. It says the man in the street would like to see the board made amen- able in some way to public opinion, which is just what the man in the street does not want to see. What does the Republic want, soap-bax regula- tion of rates with all their intricate computa- tions? Does it want popular recall of{Interstate Commerce Commission decisions? The commission in recent months has ap- proved of the confusing increase in passenger rates across state lines. In addition to the gen- eral increase of 5 per cent for Eastern and the late increase in a few rates for Western roads, it has been readjusting rates here and there when found unremunerafively low. Unqnestionably it has acted wisely and in accordance, with the best judgment on the railroad situation. But it has done this against the stubborn opposition of many business men and a great mass of uninformed public opinion unfamiliar with the problem. Regulation in accordance with the facts and not in subservance to popular clamor is the ideal regulation. Long years ago, Astor renounced his country, but he has been rewarded with no British title. May we not hope to see Sir Henry James? +e — -NO GENERALS IN SWITZERLAND. Perhaps some of the high officers who are ad- vocating the Swiss military system for the United States do not know that the preparedness of that republic is provided without the aid of any Gen- erals. In fact the provisional officer of that grade named when the war in Wurope broke out last year was the first General Switzerland has had since 1870, Possibly that is the reason why the Swiss sys- tem is so successful.

A dispatch from London states that British ex- perts take the historical view of the invincible- ness of Russia on account of vast distances and lack of roads, transportation facilities and food supplies for man and beast. The Russians make a desert behind their retreating armies. The historical view is not a good guide in this war. The modern methods of warfare have changed all military traditions. Trietschke pre- dicted that the next war would differ from all other wars because it would be fought, not by organized armies only, but by organized and armed nations with every citizen a soldier and with all the resources of the nation available for military uses. He foresaw Germany’s perfected national organization and wonderful prepared- ness as the model of future warfare. The German task of penetrating deeply into’ Russia is gigantic and dangerous, but their sit- uation is not to be compared to that of Napoleon. Napoleon took an army into Russia, depending upon Russia’s resources for forage and Ruésian roads for the movement of his troops and the transportation of guns and ammunition. The Germans depend upon themselves for sup- plies, roads and transportation. They are pre- pared for all contingencies. They have sent into Russia not only a vast army of soldiers, but a proportionate army of workers with materials for all purposes. As they move they build their own highways and railroads on which to bring up their food supplies, guns and ammunition. They carry their own resources. If the Germans suffer in Russia it will be be- cause they cannot supply enough men to over- come the Russian hordes. The Russians may be able to equip an army which will exhaust the German resources. They will not be defeated be- cause they cannot utilize the resources they have or because Russian cities are burned and Russian stores of food destroyed. Historical views of warfare must be revised in the light of modern methods, in the perfecting of which the Germans have set the pace. It might be well to send Father Dempsey to Mexico and Europe.

His Oordillera lace. MR. TAFT. R. TAFT, who is with us and carried Vermont and Utah. He probably not terribly disappointed hands with himself to recall what is still not unhappy on that score. A MINUTE DO not like Carranza— His whiskers interfere; I like that frank expression Which diplomats revere. One cannot well discover His purpose in his face, Or guess what things may lie beyond easily remembered as a rather large, good- natured person in whose keeping Col. Roosevelt left the country on departing for a hunt- ing trip in the African wilds. He subsequently ran for President against Col. Roosevelt and Mr. Wilson, father and a professor at Yale. He has greatly en- deared himself to the people of this country by show- ing himself to be a good loser and a very fine type of American citizen. If he thinks the Prtsident is right, he upholds him; and he does this without respect to party. For this we all like Mr. Taft, and if there is anybody who is more welcome to St. Louis today we don’t know who it is. As the matter stands between us and that estimable gentleman, we are all even, and there has been no great harm done. Mr. Taft has not quite that point of view which is more prevalent in . the country than it- was when he sat in the White House as the high priest of big business; but it is just as well to have people on both sides of that question, and as long as the other side domingtes once in a while as easily as it did the last time Mr. Taft ran for office, we are in no great danger. Mr. Taft became President because Col. Roosevelt, who liked him, had power enough to elevate him to that high office. He was man enough to run the job as he liked, whether Col. Roosevelt liked it or not. He was second term. One of his ability, while it is by no means small, is lucky to have been President for one term. Mr. Taft knows that very well. He is a philos- opher of a mild sort, and has no doubt often shaken though it was not particularly lasting. Caesar owed hig crown to his Uncle Julius, who took a shine to him in exactly the sams way Col. Roosevelt developed a fancy for Mr. Taft; but if the smiling gentleman whom we have in our midst did not quite rise to the sublime heights gained by Augustus, he Taft has done very well. He couldn’t‘do it again. ee get gee SONG OF MILD INDIGNATION. F III. CANNOT trust Carranza— His whiskers intervene; They constitute, believe me, A diplomatic screen.

THEY HAD NO TENOR, ECENTLY a St, Louis quartet sang at Jefferson R City, and while the singers were there they were asked to sing for the prisoners at the penitentiary. They were glad to do so, and 2400 prisdners applauded them enthusiastically when they appeared. After their concert one of the prisoners who was especially enthusiastic said to Mr. Westhus, ‘*We have tried to organize a quartet in the prison, but we have no tenor. I wish you were here.’’ It was flattering, of course; but Mr. Westhus was sorry not to feel like supplying the omission. COMFORT FOR BOAT OWNERS. BOPLE who have more or less trouble with pleasure boats will get comparative comfort from the following story of what happened to the yacht Sea Oall. Their troubles are nothing: The schooner yacht Sea Call, built at a cost of $600,000 and owned by Alexander S. Cochran of New York, is now being broken up at Lawley’s Yacht Works, Neponset. Sea Call was launched April 29 at Neponset and her only trip was a trial, from Dor- chester Bay to New London. Arriving at the latter city, she was placed in dry dock and given a thor- ough examination. This disclosed the fact that even before she had sailed a mile she was doomed and that electrolysis was working so rapidly that it was con- sidered dangerous to keep her in commission. Electrolysis was brought about by the action of the steel in her hull on the monel metal plates in the hull through the agency of salt water. The yacht was brought back to the builder's yard, but ex- perts could find no cure for the defect. The fittings are now being removed, but Mr. Cochran has not an- nounced whether he will have another.vessel of this — type built. He also owns the cup class dloop Vanitie, and both Vanitie and Sea Call wefe designed by William Gardner of New York. Sea Call is 210 feet over all length, 150 feet on the waterline, 34 feet beam and 18 feet draft. She has a 400-horse-power auxiliary steam engine, and was designed to spread 25,000 feet of sail. ge a ee ——~~_— tn A _—_ II. We salute him. atin — LECT. Thomes F. Logan in Leslie's.

How much does Willard get?’ “Well, I can't tell you that, exactly. Our receipts are split five ways, but of course he gets the largest indi- vidual] share. Tom Jones, Weber, Fra- zee and myself all have a cut of the receipts. Willard has all expenses paid, rides around in a private car with his name on the side, carries his auto around with him, and has never touched a cent of his pay from the Wild West show receipts, yet. I figure he already has over $50,000 coming to him and he'h be a rich man by fall. ‘His worst break was the illness of his wife. It worries Jess.

MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 16, 1915. RAPPED BY JUDGE: IN MARSANS CASE Federal Jurist Dyer Declares Contracts Containing It Are One-Sided. Judge D. P. Dyer of the District Federal Court ,sitting in the hearing of Armando Marsans, the Cuban out- fielder with the St. Louis Federals, to have the injunction obtained against him in 1914 by the Cincinnati Baseball Club dissolved, said this morning that the 10-day release clause might be the law, but it did not meet with his approval. The 10-day reelase clause gives the club all the better of it,” said Judge Dyer in giving his views, ‘‘The club can give a player notice of re- lease, but the player cannot give the team for which he is working any such notice. It is a one-sided affair. “It may be the law of baseball, but it does not meet with my ap- proval. This is a free country and no man can hold another to such an agreement. Of course,I am only giv- ing you my views and may change my opinion after I have looked into the matter a little further.” Attorneys for Mursans and the Cin- cinnati Exhibition Co. started argu- ments in the case this morning. C. Misadison, representing Mar- Sans, said that in sending the letter to Marsans on June 27, 1914, the Cincin- nati club violated the rules of organized vaseball, especially 19 and :0, which State specifically that if a player Jumps the team he shall be declared an outlaw and that the National Commission can- not even act uper his case for reinstate- ment tor a period of three years. _ Madison also argued that through the ietter sent by the Cincinnati club tv Marsans in 1914-he (Marsans) could not construe as 2 meaning that he report in 1915. Madison also said that the Cin- cinnati club hac sent Marsans no ex- penscs to cover the training trip. George H. Williams for.the Cincinnati cluh argued that Madison’s view of the subject were ridiculous and that the rules had nothing whatever to do with an injunction and the enforcing of a baseball contract The hearing was resumed at 2 p. m.

WITHIN RANGE OF BUTTLE-THROWERS Official Who Evoked Displeasure of Local Fans, Sunday, Was Inside Diamond. By W. J. O’Connor. The pop-bottle shower which two- bit patrons at Robison Field yester- day gave in honor of Lord Byron, the singing decision-maker, accomplished one thing, to wit: It strengthened the belief long held by out-of-town folks, especi- ally those in New York, where John McGraw too often igs quoted as say- ing that the favorite sport in St. Louis is “riding the umpire,” that 5t. Louis is a wild and woolly frontier town, with Indians running amuc and train-robbers living at the best hotels. : But the truth is that yesterdays exhibition of bottle-throwing amounted to nothing in the aggre- gate. It was provoked, if indeed there was or could be any provocation for such thing, by a rank Secision against the Cardinals. Jack Miller was called out at second base in the final in- ning of the first game, although he was safe. Bescher was on first when Jack singled. Bescher made third and Mil- ler eluded Zimmerman and slid safe- ly into second. Byron called him out. Miller protested so vigorously that he was banished for the first time this season. Miller isn’t a pugnacious gink and fans felt that he was being mistreated. Ump Is Out of Range. Somebody heaved a bottle. Then it rained bottles. Probably 200 were hurled onto the field, although at no time was anybody in danger of being beaned. The two-bit shooters didn’t have the range, but the bottles con- tinued to come until the supply Was exhausted. That Miller was not out was the opinion voiced by Zimmerman a little while later, when he too objected to Byron's decision and was effaced from the second game. After Heinie had been given the gate, he yelled to Byron: “Yes and if you want to know some- thing I never tagged Miller at second base.”” All of which primed the bleach- »rites for another disgraceful exhibition. jiowever, oy this time police had been stationed in the stands, instructed to arrest anybody who hurled anything heavier than words of condemnation. The police were pretty busy. The exhibition of umpiring as given ty Mr. Byron indeed was bad. He was impartially punk in his decisions on balle and strikes im the second game. He missed several base decisions in the first game, but it was his costiy blun- cer in the mids: of a ninth inning rally that riled the populace. Recently President John K. Tenen used up perfectly good space in the local news cclumns praising his um- pires. It is regrettable that Mr. Tener wasn’t present yesterday. St. Louis Fans to Blame. However, the outbreak doesn’t do Tener or his umpires any harm. It re- flects only on St. Louis and pretty thor- oughly establishes this town as a ruff- neck baseba!!] pcrt. But there is this much to be said about the fans: Any- thing they did was not half so unedi- fying as was the conduct of the players. The Great Zim, Bresnahan and some of the Cardinals set a bad example for the fans in the series just closed. It was a wild, weird exhibition for four days. But it did get the crowd. Over 146, me yesterday to see the Cards, a sevent place club, do battle with another-team that hardly can be considered a pennant club. And afl be- cause of the pugnacious tendencies of Bres- nahan, Byron, im and a few others. It was a grand old fight with a little baseball on the side every afternoon that the teams went into action. The Cards depart this afternoon for their final road trip, opening Wednesday in Bos- ton. where the Braves’ palatial stadium will be dedicated. This stand is the biggest in either league, having a seating capacity of 45,000. All the dignitaries of baseball will be present and the Cardinal management ex- pene to get paid for the biggest crowd ever oused in a National League park, world’s series or not.

Four-Time Golf Champion of South | Will Again Try for National Cup C This will not be Whitney's first at- tempt to win the classic. He was the first Southerner to enter the national amateur. This was back in 1908 at Garden City, when he qualified for match play but was eliminated in the first round. In 1911, at Apawamis, he did not fare as well, going out in the second half of the qualifying round. In 1912 and 1914 his efforts were fruitless, though in the former tour- nament he again reached the first round, A student of the game with the ideal golfing temperament and match player and driver of ability, Whitney has worked to correct his weakness in putting and his iron mashie shots and he has succeeded to such an extent that only last week he smashed the Shenecosset course record with a 70 Whitney began his career in 1902, when 13 years old.

He then won the title in 1913, defeating eege in the finals, and in 1914, when Perry Adair was rpg thy os In his seventh try for the title Whitney finished runner-up to Charles Dexter of Dallas at Atlantic in June. He entered the Southern this year without practice and in poor physicai condition. Two injuries, one to his right haud, prevented any golf for two months, and the other, when he was struck beneath the eye by a driven ball two weeks before the championships, were handicaps which made his play at Atlanta nigh re- markable. ye from Atlanta he contin- ued his golf and up to the time that he left for New London had made a numbe of near-record rounds on New @Qrleans courses. At New London he has won a medal in an open tour- hament and smashed the pro and amateur record of the Shenecosset course with a 70. v-t— WILLIAM AND DIRECTUM IN MATCH RACE TODAY CLEVELAND, 0., Aug. 16.—Which of the . —— — What’s the Matter With the Chauffeur? PPEARANCES indicate that the driver of the National League machiny is not familiar with his car. The old jitney rocks and sways along penuant road, et times appearing completely out of control of its chauffeur. It appears that the skipper of a ship of State ig not necessarily able to jump in and handle a big league race. Else why this continued banging into difficulties, under the guidance of former Gov. Tener? This year the Na- tional League has been ae into just one knock after another. Fights on the field, intimidation of umpires, goat-getting tactics from the coach- er’s box, pop-bottle throwing, eccen- tri@® umpiring, rowdyism among fans and other evidences of slack disci- pline have been almost a daily story. No such condition is observed in the American League, which has to cope with the same ele- ments and the same phase of human nature, but which man- ages to go on its way, sans out- breaks, bad language and fights. Baseball or Battle? M ANY fans profess to prefer rough stuff in baseball and point to the fact that a near tail-end club like the Cardinals could not have drawn close to 15,000 persons except for Zim, Byron and Roger, all “fight- ing factors.” But the management might easily have had 50,000 attendance by advertising a battle royal between the nines instead of a baseball game, if fight is what is desired. Ideals in any sport that are grounded on bad language, fisticuffa and even worse violence cannot survive. The over- hauling of the National League attitude ought to begin at once, to modernize the venerable old institution. Keeper, Look Him Over! A’ inspection at Robison Field has convinced many fans that there ig something radically wrong with Lord Byron’s works. On _ second thoughts, turning over a new leaf might help. * Back to the Bomb-Proof. LD MAN DOPE is back in the trenches again, viewing the situation through the periscope. The explosion of Maurice McLoughlin at Seabright last week drove him to cover. The defeat of the California Comet by the veteran interna- tonalist, Karl Behr, is the first fracture in the program laid out for youth, whereby it wag to trample on middle-age, in the race for the national tennis championship. Behr is in the 30s and McLoughlin is 25 or less. Also, the Comet is the ranking player of the world, while Behr is just a filler-in substitute, in international play. Yet Behr trimmed the Loughlin and was .in turn aten by Williams, who himself had _ suc- cumbed to McLoughlin only a week or so previously. Old Man Dope tried to straighten out the snarl, but said there never was any real answer to the old prob- lem of the three snakes trying to swallow each other, which the ten- nis situation seems to resemble. ‘ He thinks McLoughlin will come through and beat them all, unless something has happened to him, for the reason that the Comet is still master of Williams, The Harvard boy, being young ard reat Mc- the second best man in the game, has a chance to improve and move up to McLoughlin’s class. But Behr, being past his tennis yee. it is extremely unlikely that he will a n himse is take the measure of ain, unless the Comet slipping. ® 7 * Club vs. College Rowing. T HE wonderful showing of the Duluth Boat Club oarsmen, at theapational regatta, winning 10 of 11 starts and establishing four rec- ords, has led enthusiasts to conijec- ture how clud oarsmen would compare with collegians in a race for the national er oe A line of “dope” is lacking, since the amateur club stars have no four- mile race on their program. It is to be noted, however, that behind the Duluth wianers in more than one race were Veteran college oarsmen of knows ability. * es . Harvard and Penn Stars Lose. F°o® example, the Union Boat Club crew, one of the beaten boats, was made up entirely of former Harvard rowing stars. It was the Union Roat Ciub that won its way to the finals in the Grand Chalienge Cup Race in En- gland last season, los only after a tee race against the Harvard varsity eignt. The University Boat Club crew of Phil- adelphia, which also went down before the Duluth men, is made up of Pennsy!- vania U. stars and is trained by Vivian Nickalis, Pennsylvania's head coach. On snap judgment of this sort it appears that the club crews would at least be able to hold their own with the beat of the college eights, if coached for dis- tance rowing. One thing is certain—no institution or club ever before sent so uniformly excei- lent a squad of men to represent it as did Duluth at Springfield. Too bad St. Louls, with seven clubs, two of them with handsomer quarters than probably any _rowi club in the country, was not rep ed in the na- -|}tional races by even one oarsman. Soft Pedal on Some Fans, HILE everybody with a word to sav against rowdy baseball has been for strapping a silencer on John Evers and making him coach in the deaf mute language, there’s another side to this vocalization of baseball. Ball park owners ought te put some restrictions on certain FANS who overstep decency ia their language toward players on the field. Harmless conversation hurled from the stands at players and umpires is, of course, not meant. But occusionally a fan will be found whose speech is so venomous and whose is so im- ble that it is hard to ¢ t any baseball player to sit patiently under the lash. It is the duty of club owners to elimi- nate all such fans from their parks. They are worse nuisances to the spec- tators than to the players. —_—————— ee Rickey to Try Out New Menin Series at Home ‘Club Inaugurates Last Stand To- day After Losing 15 Out of 21 Abroad.

GERMAN WINE CROP FOR THIS YEAR T0 BE ENORMOUS ONE Uniess There Spould Be Extraordinar- il., Bad Weather in Fall Output Pro- mises to Be Largest in 20 Years BERLIN, Aug. 16.—Unlessg the late summer and autumn ~bring some extraordinarily unfavorable weather, the year 1915 promises to be remark able for the production of German wines. Not for 20 years have the prospects along the Rhine, Moselle and Saar been so glowing, and it looks as if the “19l5er’” will come to dispute honorg with the famous “1893er,” the best vintage Germany has had in many a decade. The long drouth this year in Germany was particularly favorable for the vine- yardists. Not anly does the quality promise to be the best since 1893, but the quantity will be equally satisfac- tory. For the gathering of this bumper crop there are fortunately available thousands of war prison- ers from the wine districts of France, skilled help offering a complete sub- stitute for the German laborers at the front. The war has caused much less disturbance of conditions in the wine trade than.might have been expected, In only one respect are conditions changed. While the wine drinkers are drinking as much wine as usual, they are drinking cheaper brands. Of the better grade wines there is no lack and the prices have not been raised. This ig particularly true of Bordeaux, of which, according to competent authorities, Germany pos- sesses an adequate supply for at least two years. CURRENT COINS CENTURIES OLD Money tu Use in Chimese Province Dates Back te Ching Dynasty. PEKIN, Aug. 16.—An American, who recently arrived from the far interior of China, had with him when he reached Pekin a string of copper coins with holes through the center. The whole string, two feet in length, was deemed to be worth about @ or 15 cents, for the coins were only the ordinary “cash” in current use in the province of Ehensi, from which the traverer came. Upon ex- amination by a member of the American legation, who knows the Chinese lan- guage, it was fouhd that some bore the marks of Emperors as far back as the year 24 A. D. On the string were “cash” represent- ing every reign since the beginning of the Ching dynasty, many of the Ming dynasty, and even the dynasties that precede the latter. Hard Coal te Inerease Approved WASHINGTON, Aug. ie ~The Inter- state Commerce Commission today ao- proved an income of 2% cents a ton on hard coal from the Pennsylvania mines to Chicago, Joliet, Kankakee, Peoria, St. Louis and other similar points of connection between Eastern and West- ern lines.

Villa against the James Brittingham soap fac- tory, a Mexican corporation at Gomes Palacia, has been lifted, it became known here today. Abandonment of the plan to collect the loan from the concern El Paso, through the efforts of local police, is under at- tachment served by the Sheriff in the name of Francisca Fores, plaintiff in a suit against Villa filed in the District Court.

The complaint alleged the execution of Flores broke the contract. When Flores was arrested it was said he had been given $5000 by the Villa Government, which he was alleged to have failed to expend for arms and am- munition.
