Is it true? If so way and one in front of the elevator shaft. One box and barrel were found in the front portion of the second floor. An- other barrel was found by the elevator shaft on the third floor and a box and a barrel alrast cohsumed on the top floor. The Acting Chief told the reporter that the fact that gasoline was still found in the boxes and barrels was due to the quickness. with which the fire- men responded to the alarm. He said that hose was playing upon two floors within three minutes of the alarm. Burlap Soaked in Gasoline, One of the boxes in which gasoline was found appeared to have been con- nected with one of the barrels by a strip of burlap, the slightly-burned ecges of the box and barrel indicating to the Acting Chief the place where Fad rested the ends of the gasoline- soaked strip found on the floor between them. In the cellar of the building investiga- tion yesterday showed that at the time of the fire the outer door of a brick vault in the front part of the cellar had been left open. Within this vault were kept the books and other records of the company. Another curious feature of the fire which is being investigated is the fact that the fourth floor was almost un- touched by fire although heavy dam- age was done on the second and third floors and on the fifth floor. The Acting Chief said that it seemed to him as if fire must have started on the top floor at tho same time as in the basement. A representative of W. H. Markham & Co., insurance brokers, with offices in the Pierce Building, who placed the policies on the stock in the building, said that the insurance on machinery and stock amounted to about $40,000. Ba Is Not There Saturday. E. B. Sherzer, a director of the print- ing company, said that to the best of his knowledge there never were any barrels or boxes kept in the building. He said they were not there when he left at 2 p. m. Saturday. G. W. Lovell of Webster Groves, the company’s estimator, said it was his duty to see that the company was sup- plied with gasoline. Owing to insurance regulations, he said, it was a strict rule of the company that not more than two gallons of gasoline be kept on the prem- ises. It was his custom, he said, to sign an order for two gallons of gasoline when needed and send an employe aft- er it with a tin can. He said the com- pany never kept any gasoline in a bar- rel or a box, and that he never had seen any such barrels or boxes in the building. He said he left the building at 2:15 p. m. Saturday. Roy M. B. Tidd, president of the printing company, told a reporter this afternoon that after an inspection of the ruined building he was unable to account for the presence of gasoline in the boxes and barrels. He said tha: the boxes or barrels were not standing at the elevator shafts and stairway left the building about Tidd said that to the dest of his knowledge he was the last man to leave the building.

The exciting end of a dinner party, given July 18 in Ellendale, at which Police Judge Granville Hogan and ris wife, a daughter of Mayor Kiel, arong the guests, was describei in charges against Patrolman Fatiick Bren of the Laclede avenues siarion, filed With the Police Board today by Dr. and Mrs. Fred W. Shaffer. Brown, who lives at 7219 Emilie street, in the Ellendale region, owns the house at 7211 Emilie, and Dr. and Mrs. Shaf- fer until a short time ago were jiis tenants there. He recently filed . Jus- tice Court guilt to disbossess them, state ing in the patition that they were un- desirable” tenants. It was after this that the Shaffers prepared the charges, which allege unbecoming conduct“ on Brown’s part. At the dinner party of July 18 the guests were Judge and Mrs. Hogan, Dr. Dallas W. Shaffer of the United States veterinary inspection service, living at 1636 Belt avenue, Lieut. Edward J. Tofte of the Fire Depart- ment and his brother, Alfred J. Tofte, of 5223 Wise avenue. All except the Hogans signed the sworn charges against Brown. Charges Against Brown. After dinner, the affidavit states, the Hogans were the first to depart, and Judge Hogan drove his automo- bile in such a way that, in the lan- guage of the complaint, it “touched a path used as a sidewalk.” At this, it is charged, Brown san from the front of his home and shouted at Hogan, who drove away without seeming to notice him. Soon afterward, the affidavit says, the others started out for a ride in Dr. Shaffer’s machime, and the car ran in the same place where Hogan had driven his car. At this, it is charged, Brown confronted the party, and called its members tramps and hoodlums. A moment later, it is charged, he went home and got his police revolver and billy. Revolver Piay Alleged. Lieut. Tofte, according to the affida- vit, told Brown to put up his revolver and billy, and said any man in the party would then be ready to settle matters with him. At this, the affidavit alleges, Brown thrust the muzzle of his revolver against the fireman’s body, and Mrs. Shaffer, who is in delicate health, fainted. When the charges were first placed in Capt. Johnson's hands, Brown was questioned about thém. He said his house, while Dr. Shaffer occupied it, had been a “headquarters for Republic- an politicians and ‘dog fanciers.’ Dr. Shaffer conducts a dog and cat hospi- tal in another part of the city. Brown admitted having had trouble with his tenants, but denied the charges as to his words and actions toward the Shaffer party.

NEW YORK, Sept. 6.—A’ lithe, deep- chested youth, 18 years old, Robert W. E. Dowling, president of a realty concern, achieved the best long distance swim known to local waters when he tircled. Island yesterday, a distance of fi 4 40 miles. He was in the water 18 hours and 45 minutes. Young Dowling attempted the feat Aug. 15 and made 2% miles, but the tide at Spuyten Duyvil defeated him. Yes- terday he made his start from Spuyten Duyvil at 8:40 a. m. He was followed by his father, T. J. Dowling of Spring Lake, who is his coach, and a half dozen other persons in a motor boat. He made his way down the North River with the wind at his back, using a trudgeon stroke. Three hours after his start he was passing Forty-second | street and at 1:06 o’clock he had made the Battery. Then he had a ‘struggle, testing not only his strength but his heart. He was caught in the cross currents off the Battery and. swept toward Governor's Island. The water was choppy and foaming. He had to use many tricks to work himself out of the current. It was half an hour’s hard fighting before he was well on his way again. At 3:40 p. m. he was going at ease past the south end of Blackwell's. Island. Then the young swimmer’s work was cut out for him again. There was des- perately hard swimming against the Hell Gate flow until he got to the en- trance of the Harlem River. He swung in there at 6:15 o’clock. As. the youth started the last stretch of the swim to Spuyten Duyvil it was evident that he was nowhere near the end of his strength. Within four miles of the finish his father plunged into the water and swam side by side with his son, but, although fresh, he could not keep up the son's pace to the finish. Fifteen minutes from the end he called for a lift into the motor boat. There was no suggestion of exhaus- tion when the youth got: back to his starting point. The finish was at 10:15 p. m. At half-hour intervals he had swallowed a little beef juice or choco- late. Dowling had trained all summer for this swim. The longest swim hith- erto recorded in New York waters was that of George Meehan of Boston, who, on July 19 last year, went the 22 miles from the Battery to Sandy Hook im seven hours and 19 minutes. ANNUAL 3 MONTHS’ OVERHAULING OF U. 8. WARSHIPS ABANDONED Crews, Because of Long Shore Leave, Suffered in Discipline and Morale, Daniels Says. WASHINGTON, Sept. 6-—American warships no longer will lay up at home yards three months of the year for overhauling, with free shore liberty for officers and men. Secretary Daniels has announced that upon the recommendation of Admiral Fletcher, Commander in Chief of the Atlantic fleet, the ships will be docked twice a year for painting and minor re- pairs, but general overhauling would be “When a ship was sent to its home yard annually for overhaul,” said Dan- lels, it would be found that the offi-. cers and crew had suffered in disci- pline, morale and ship spirit, and re- quired several months of active drills and exercises before they could be re- stored to thetr former state of readi- ness for war.“ j Movies Tonight.

HIS HOME “Now I’ve Got You,” House- keeper of Rhode Island Jurist Says She Heard Man Say. PROVIDENCE, R. I., Sept. 6.—Jus- tice Willis S. Knowles of the Eighth Judicial District was assassinated to- day just after he had left his bunga- low in North Scituate to take a trol- ley car for Providence. He received three bullet wounds, two in the back and one in the jaw. The attack oc- curred about 100 yards from the house and apparently the shots came from bushes that lined the village road. After having been wounded at least once, the Justice turned back and nearly had ‘regained the gate opening into hig place when he fell dead. The murder was witnessed by no one. The assassins escaped. The body was found by Judge Knowles housekeeper, Mrs. Wardell, who ran from the house when she hear’ the shots. As she reached the lawn she says she heard a man’s voce with a foreign accent cry: “Now, Judge, I've got you.” She saw no one, but thought the voice came from the shrubbery. Justice Knowles was 48 years old and unmarried. He was born in Ohio. The police are proceeding on the theory that he was killed in revenge by some liti- gant against whom he had given a de- cision. According to the police, he had recent- ly complained of the conditions under which a saloon, a short distance from his bungalow, was conducted. In re- cent years there have been many ar- rests in North Scituate of alleged pro- moters of cock fighting. Friends of Judge Knowles told the police that he recently had said he was making many enemies because of his activity in forming an organization to conduct a campaign against violators of the fish and game laws. Upon this information the police began a search for a man whom the Justice is al- leged to have described as having be- come embittered toward him in this connection. ——— — * Karl List’s Article Tomorrow Owing to delay in transmission the second installment of Kari List's experiences on-the German submarine U-. which was to have appeared in today’s Post-Dispatch, led to the torpedoing. taken. off. struck. went down with the ship. marine or s torpedo. The American Embassy is receiving reports from Wesley Frost, American Consul at Queenstown, on the question whether warning was given to the liner. Persons so far seen by Frost state that no warning was given. One first cabin passenger, six. second cabin passengers and six third class passengers on the liner Hesperian are unaccounted for, according to a state- ment made this afternoon by the Allan Line agent in Queenstown. A woman’s body has been identified as that of Miss Carberry, probably of New Foundland. The latest information indicates there were 350 passengers aboard and 236 per sons in the crew. Most of the @ew have been accounted for. * Vessel Afloat 34 Heures. The Hesperian remained afloat vir- tually 34 hours after being struck, and it was hoped she could be towed into Queenstown. The weather last night was bad. A Chronicle dispatch from Queenstown says Miss Carberry, an elderly passen- ger on the Hesperian, died from shock after being rescued, and that another woman succumbed a short time after be- ing taken aboard the rescue ship. Consul Frost telegraphed today to the American Embassy that the Admiralt) authorities had not been informed off!- ‘lclally that the Hesperian had been tor- pedoed without warning, but that they believed this was the case. Frost's message also said that 4 un- organized Canadian troops were on doard. most of them invalided, and that . une tomor- a semi- official message from Berlin concerning the torpedoing of the Hesperian states that details must be awaited as to whether the vessel was torpedoed at all, and, if so, the circumstances which LONDON, Sept. 6.— The Allan liner Hesperian, which pre- sumably was torpedoed by a German submarine at 8:20 p. m., Saturday, 100 miles southwest. of Fastnet, Ireland, sank at 6:45 Iba. m. today, When making her way back to Queenstown.

The captain and crew were taken off by rescue boats and landed later in Queenstown by the steamer Empress. About 400 sacks of mail The sinking of the Hesperian in deep water probably will pre- vent an investigation to determine whether the disaster resulted from a submarine’s torpedo or from a mine. Passengers and crew assert positively that the vessel was struck by a torpedo, but thus far no statement had been obtained from anyone who saw a sub- cued, however, said they heard cries for help from persons in the water. A woman in one of the lifeboats stopped a small leak by removing a stocking and stuffing it into the hole. Three Sisters of Mercy were among the last to depart from the Hesperian. One of the passengers asserts that 60 per- sons were crowded into a lifeboat hav~ ing a capacity of 0. Passengers Were Taking Promenade. All the passengers and members of the crew who arrived at Queenstown, in agreeing that the attack was made by a German submarine, based their opin- ion on the forcesof the shock and the great volume of water threwn mendous and of the at Queenstown, many of them scantily clad, about Y were injured. About 30 Canadian soldiers who had been wounded in battle in Flanders were going home to recuperate. Most of the other passengers were Canadians returning from a visit to En- giand or English people on their way. to Canada to settle.

There was no comment onthe disaster from either the White House or State Department, but high officials, it was understood, thought. it inconceivable that a German commander had attacked a peaceful passenger liner without warning, in view of the recently ex- pressed attitude of the German Imperial Government. First reports from Consul Frost at Queenstown stated that the Hesperian carried aft, mounted and visible, a 4.7- inch rifle. That is permissible—for de- fensive purposes—under international law. It was suggested, however, that the presence of the gun might figure, under some circumstances, in the sub- marine commander's explanation to the Berlin, Admiralty. !

So far as has been ascertained by the American Consul, there were only two Americans aboard. Both were saved, They were ships stewards. One of them, named Dolan of Pittsburg, said that no submarine was sighted. Another American on board was a steward named McAllister whose home is in Grand Rapids, Mich. The Hesperian had on board 3700 sacks of mail for the United States. Among the soldiers returning to Can- uda was one named Chambers of Truro, Nova Scotia.

VON WIEGAND. 4 Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch and the New York World. (Copyright, 1915, by Press Pub. Co.) BERLIN, Sept. 5, by wireless to Say- ville, Sept. 6.— The situation of the English at the Dardanelles and their attitude toward Turkey is like that of a man sitting on a tree branch and cut- ting it off between himself and the tree. 80 declared a Turkish dipigmat of high rank from Constantinople while discussing with me the recent heavy losses of the allies on the Gallipoli pen- insula: The diplomat continued: “All reports to the contrary notwith- standing, the allies are making no piog- ress in or along the Dardanelles. They are only sacrificing thousands of lives in what has been a hopeless undertak- ing #0 far. : “The English really have Wad luck in meeting failure in the Dardanelles, and I hope they will continue to have such luc . It is lucky for us and not much less lucky for England. Mad From Fear of Germany. “England has simply gone mad from fear of Germany. This absurd ‘Ger- man madness’ which has become an ob- session with them, has caused the best of English statesmen to lose their heads —to lose sight of England’s best in- terests, so causing the English to do that, which, if successful, would be the worst possible thing for England’s fu- ture. “Russia is England’s great future enemy. If you look far enough ahead, no other conclusion can be arrived at j than it is Russia which England must reckon with in the future. So, En- gland's endeavor to conquer the Darda- nelles, to take Constantinople and de- liver her to England's greatest rival of the future, is nothing short of political madness. J always have had the highest ad- miration and respect for British states- men, who undoubtedly have been among the greatest in the world, but England's attempt to deliver Turkey to Russia displays a lack of political far- sightedness that is incomprehensible «o me. “England's prestige has been buriet deeper on the front at the Dardanelles than anywhere else in this war. The deepest grave of English prestige ig the. Gallipoli Peninsula. Her failure there is bound to shake English influence to its very foundatiom and the day will come when England will know this. Unbroken Series; of Defeats, “Her efforts to capture the Darda- nelles and Constantinople have falle ! and we have every reason to believe will continue to fail. The entire Dardanelles campaign by the allies, on sea and land, has been an unbroken series of defeats, of which the full extent is probably not known or realized in England and France. “The Turk has come into his own again as a fighkter,’’ concluded the dfplo- mat, whom I met in Vienna and who came to Berlin on the same train with me. “So far as Turkey is concerned. if England and France are seeking her conquest for territorial aggrandizement, it is immaterial whether they should keep Turkey for themselves or deliver us to Russia for a price.“ The diplomat added that an agreement between Turkey and Bulgaria probably would prove the turning point of the Balkan situation. He declared that such an agreement had been perfected, buf he could not confirm officially that it had been signed. From other reliable sources IL am in- formed that only the protocols of such an agreement have been signed. After they were signed Bulgaria, it is report- ed, made some new demands of such a nature that they must be weighed care- fully before they are agreed upon.

SNOW HILL, Md., Sept. ¢6.—Levin P. Robinson, his wife, and Alonzo Redden, HOW CRUISER LION W. SAVED TOLD BY OFFICERS: TIGER SHOWS FEW SCARS em Warship Which Germans Claimed to Have ‘Sunk Seen by Correspondent on First Visit Permitted to Grand Fleet. transmission.—During his visit to the British battle fleet in the last week, the correspondent, after boarding all of ths more important ships, witnessed a mag- nificent spectacle—that of the whole force putting to sea. Officers on Vice Admiral Sir David Beatty's flagship the Lion, which has received the roughest handling in bat- LONDON, Sunday, Sept. 5, delayed * tie of any major British ship now afloat, told of the difficulty they had to per- suade the young commander to descend at tle opening of the action on Jan. 24 from the bridge, where he had an un- hampered vision, to the armored pro- ‘| tection of the conning ‘tower. They gave an exciting account of the success of the destroyers in foiling all efforts of submarines to reach the crippled Lion as she was being towed home at five knots an hour after sinking the German cruiser Bluecher. The places in which the Lion was damaged during the North Sea battle were not discernible in some instances, owing to reconstruction of the section where the shells burst. In other cases the location was evident, patches having been placed over the injured plates. The Tiger, which the Germans claimed to have sunk and which is a sister bat- tle cruiser of the Lion, had fewer scars to show as a result of the North Sea battle. Few Marks of Battle. On the Queen Elizabeth, the only signs of her experiences at the Dardanelles which were visible were a section r new planks on deck, where a shell pen- etrated, and a dent from a glancing shot on one-of her 15-inch guns. The Inflexible, the flagship in the Falkland Islands battle, suffered less irjury there than at the Dardanelles, where she was struck by a mine and was under heavy fire from shore. A piece of the mine is kept in the ward room as a souvenir, and all the ships which have been in action had frag- ments of German shells set in mount- ings as mMementoes. Officers referred tc the manner in which the necessity had been foreseen in British naval prep- arations for taking care of damages from battle, thus insuring prompt re- pairs when any ship returned injured in action. ; “But*we had few repairs to make and our energy and resources were given to the rapid construction of new fighting units, which .continues to increase our preponderance over the German fleet,“ one officer remarked. The correspond- ent heard repeated and sympathetic ref- erences to the sacrifices and hardships of the army during the grilling year of war, while the battleships marked time in their long wait. “But if battle comes for us it will not last long.“ an officer said. “Every day’s waiting only sharpens our eager- ness.“ Only Color Visible. The only color visible in that vast assembly of fighting ships stretching into the misty horizon or standing out against the green background of the harbor.was the blue uniforms of the crews and an occasional signal flag fluttering from the halyard. While on board the flagship of Ad- miral Sir John Jellicoe, a message was brought to the commander in chief, who called a secretary and spoke briefly to him, Word was passed around that the whole fleet had been ordered to weigh anchor and proceed to sea. Guests on beard a destroyer at the mouth of the harbor watched the un- precedented procession of naval power make its exit, led by graceful light criusers and flotillas of destroyers. “But are not German submarines waiting outside?“ was asked. No doubt, two or three are always there, an officer replied, “but the de- stroyers know how to keep them off.“ Cutting through choppy waves and leaving foaming wakes, the destroyers, attendant satellites of the great fight- ing ships, ran in and out, always on the move. It seemed that if a line had been drawn between the stern and bow of any two battleships it would mea- sure exactly the same distance as be- tween any other two, so steadily were the intervals kept. ‘The crews were out and the sight added impression to the fleet's gray armored might. Seemingly Endless Column, The head of the column was lost in the mist of approaching nightfall and black clouds from the funnels. Bight, 16, 0 dreadnoughts were counted as they went past with clockwork regular- ity, and out of other smoke clouds in the harbor were more dreadnoughts coming before the King Edward Vil and other pre-dreadnoughts classes had their turn. — be ready to forego submarine attacks on liners is the want of submarines and the personnel to carry on their cam- paign. 2300 Auxiliary Vessels, The Admiral commanding at an im- portant naval base told the correspond- ent that England has 2300 trawlers, mine sweepers and other auxiliaries. outside the regular service, on duty in the work of biockading from the British Chan- nel to Iceland and in keeping the North Sea clear, and that their reservist crews had been most zeaious in their impor- tant part in overcoming the kind of naval warfare which Germany wages. Ar the torpedo boat destroyer on which the correspondent was a passen- ger, after a cruise at sea and following the coast turned the headland into the harbor, where the grand fleet lay at anchor, he saw a target being towed in the customary manner for firing rractice by some of the cruisers. “We keep at it all the time,“ an officer ex- plained. The practice of the cruisers finished, they toek their place in fleet formation among the immense field of gray shapes at anchor in precise order which as the torpedo boat destroyer drew nearer became line after Une of dreadnoughts. Deeks Stripped for Action. Every deck was stripped for action, steain was up in every ship, and as the destroyer threaded her way, turrets were seen turning and guns being eic vated and lowered in the course of drills. Seaplanes, which were sailing over the fleet, had their home on a fa- mous: Atlantic liner whiclr has carried many thousands of passengers. In their places in the battle cruiser squadron, which is known in the navy as “cat squadron,”’ were the Lion and,the, Tiger, which sank the German ariatred cruiser Bluecher in the North Sea battle. This seems a sufficient denial of the German report that the Tiger is at the bottom of the sea, said an officer. Looking strange among the homogen- ous types of the 10-gun ships, which be- longed to the regular British navy, was a Turkigh l2-inch gun dreadnought taken over at the outset of the war. Misdemeanors of all sorts in the navy have decreased since the war began. One feature of the usual routine only has teen changed. Decks are not washed every day, but twice a week, as the daily wash down gave the men less freedom of movement and kept their surroundings too moist. The aim is to conserve the men al- ways up to the maximum of effictency, officers explained, and not to ever trair. them to staleness or permit of any slackness. Whether in the turrets on the bridge or below decks there was ua significant absence of even the most minute things Which would not serve a purpose in battle. Only in the commander in chief's cab- in, with numerous sea maps on the wall, did books and pictures suggest other than naked utility for war. Fleet Has Grown Stronger. Sir John Jellicoe and all his officers spoke in the same strain about the sit- uation. If the German fleet had any chance of success, they said it was at the outset of the war. With every month the British fleet had grown stronger and was better organized to meet any possible emergency. Though the submarine had played a more im- portant part than many had expected, the methods for countering their at- tacks and destroying them had devel- | oped beyond expectations. Submarines waited outside of harbors, they said, whenever the fleet or any part of it went forward, but they had succeeded in hitting only one vessel, a light cruiser. The grand fleet itself had learned how to care for itself. The hardest part of the war for the navy, the officers declared, was in the early days, when the fleet was contin- ually at sea looking for a battle. Now it was secure and ready. it could steam to action instantly if the patrols, which continually swept the North Sea, re- ported any sign of the Germans.

TO EXPLAIN TO LANSING Statement Documents Which Archibald Carried Are Made Public. * LENOX, Mass., Sept. 6.— The right to call out Austrian-Hunganar workers in the big steel mills of the country engaged in filling war orders for the al- lies was claimed by Dr. Constantin Theodor Dumba,--Ambassador from Austria-Hungary to the United States, in a statement issued last night at the summer embassy here. Dr. Dumba said he intenjed to leave today fer Washington to explain his po- sition te. Secretary Lansing. This statement was called forth by dispatches from London, published yes- terday, making public excerpts letters and memoranda forwarded by Dr. Dumba to Foreign Minister Buri- an of Austria-Hungary, which were seized by the Pritish naval authorities from James F. J. Archibald, an Amer- ican newspaper correspondent, who was apprehended when the steamer Rotter- dam arrived at Falmouth the latter part of August. Statement by Dumba, Dr. Dumba declared that there was nothing in the dispatches from him to his Government, taken by the British naval authorities that could not be properly explained. In regard to one part of the published statement, in which it was said that a typewritten memorandum prepared by Dr. Dumba contained detailed information as to how the big steel mills at Bethlehem, Pa., and elsewhere could be put out of commission, the Ambassador said: Count von Bernstorff and I dine’ with Archibald before he sailed, and he was intrusted with secret and valua- ble papers. I fail to understand how he could have been so careless as to allow these dispatches to fall into the hands of our enemies. However, there waz nothing in the dispatches which cannot be satisfactorily explained. . The proposals regarding calling out citizens of Austria-Hungary, made by me, were that every open and perfectly “proper method be taken to bring before our races employed in the big steel works the fact that they were engage“ in an enterprise that was unfriendly to their fatherland, and that the imperial Government would hold workers in mu- nition plants where contracts were being filled for the allies with being guilty of a serious crime against the country, something that would be punishable by imprisonment or penal servitude should they return to their own country. There are thousands of workingmen fu the big steel industries, natives of Rohemia, Moravia, Carnolia, Dalmatia, Croatia, Slavcnia and other peoples of the races from Austria-Hungary who are uneducated and who do not ‘under- stand that they are engaged in a work against their own country. In order to tring this before them, I have sub- sidized many newspapers published in the languages and dialects of the divis- ions mentioned, attempting in this way te bring their felonious occupation to their attention.

I am surrounded by spies in New York. They even send their spies up to Lenox.“ Washington Officials Remain Silent on Dumba Statement. WASHINGTON. Sept. 6.—The White House and State Department continued to preserve strict silence today on the published statement of Ambassador Dumba of Austria that he Rad taken part in a movement to curtafl produc- tion of war materials in the United States by reminding Austro-Hungarian subjects that they were violating the criminal code of their native land by accepting employment in the munition plants. Secretary Lansing later in the day re- ceived a request from Ambassador Dum- ba for a conference and made an ap- pointment to meet him at the State De- partment tomorrow afternoon. Officials here point out that the sub- ject »which has arisen from this inci- dent, is a new one to American diplo- macy and that there are absolutely no trecedents for official guidance. It is declared that unless existence of a con- spiracy can be shown it is doubtful whether any statutory violation has been involved. The question of the legality of ap- troaching naturalized American citizens by Foreign Ambassadors in time of war is said to involve the question of dua! citizenship, which has been a sub- ject of continuous contrgversy between the United States and veral of the greet European Powers. ¢ The Ambassador's frank statement of his activities, however, was received with undisguised surprise in official cir- diplo- mats. No official was willing to ven- ture an opinion on what position the State Department might take until the Ambassador had seen Secretary Lan- sing. —— — ‘ALL PAPERS WERE NOT GIVEN OUT?

DISPANGT ee — FRIENDS OF PEACE beko TO TRY TO ELIMINATE WAR Convention in Chicago Makes No Attempt to Pass Resolu- tions for Embargo. CHICAGO, Sept. 6.—Although speaker after speaker declared against the ship- ment of munitions from America to Eu- ropean bélligerents and criticised the at- titude of the administration toward the matter, the Friends of Peace today made no formal declaration in favor of an embargo. Instead, the meeting adopted a reso- lution containing the following state- ment of principles as an expression of the purposes of the organization: That the majority of Americans are opposed to war except for the national defense. That the time has come to discard war, the greatest relic of barbarism.” That war will cease when enlightened men and women bind themselves togeth- er to prevent unnecessary armament. That there should be freedom of the seas and that the United States should contribute to this resuit by insisting that American commerce in noncontra- band goods with belligerents be unmo- lested. ; That the idea of America being in- vaded by a European army is prompted solely by the avarice of armament and munition makers. That the manufacture of death-deal- ing implements should not be for profit but solely for national defense. That foreign loans to finance warlike enterprises are subversive of peace, and loans to belligerent Governments from Federal reserve banks illegal and un- neutral. That, in view of all these things, tiie Friends of Peace pledge themselves to work to ‘counteract teachings of false morality regarding warfare and to elimi- nate from public life every politician and every false teacher playing on the prejudices of the unthinking while se- cretly serving the manufacturers of arms and armament. No Resolutions for Embargo. The announced intention of J. J. To- bias and others to introduce a resolu- tion declaring for an embargo on war munitions did not materialize. Henry Weissman of Chicago, chair- man of the Resolutions Committee. said “the action of this convention must not be a defiance of public opinion which we of German extraction believed to be misinformed. It must not be a defiance of a press which we believe to be unjustly prejudiced. It must not be a defiance of what so many of us con- ceive to be the mistaken policy of our Government. It must be in the inter- ests of true peace and we must pre- Serve, not rupture, the common bonds Weissman was greeted with prolonged cheering when he declared: “As one of German birth and train- ing, I admire the German Prince wh. now leads the destinies of his nation, but my heart is with the common peo- ple of Germany. I hope when this war is over that political conditions in Ger- many will be so popular, so domestic that Germany forever after will be the bulwark of peace and democracy.” Bryan Scheduled to Speak William J. Bryan was scheduled to ad- dress the convention late this after- noon. 3 — Bryan’s agreement to address the con- vention was not absolutely given until after a conference with the Executive Committee last night. After the meet- ing, Henry Weissman, one of the lead- ers of the convention, said that Bryan would speak with the understanding that anything he might say would not be binding on the convention and any- thing he might say would not be bind- ing on him. A ripple of applause greeted the read- ing of a bulletin yesterday announcing that the liner Hesperian had been tor- pedoed by a German submarine, but im- <aediately a storm of hisses drotvned cut the appla-:ise. The bulletin, read by Weissman, contained the erroneous statement tha: 600 lives had been lost Later another bulletin stating no lives had been lost was read and the dele. gates broke into applause that lasced several minutes. German-Americans of Kentucky Af- firm Allegiance to U. 8. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Sept. 6.—The Ger- man-American Alliance of Kentucky, in annual session here yesterday, adopted a resolution deploring previous dissen- gions between the United States and Germany, expressing satisfaction with reports thet the two countries had ef- fected an understanding and recording “with gratifying pleasure President Wilson’s attitude in having averted se- rious consequences.” The alliance also renewed without UTILITIES DRAW NO UG TAX INGREASES Bell Telephone Co. Assessment Raised $256,000, United Railways Only $12. State Auditor Gordon has made pub- lic the assessment revision as finally approved by the State Board of Equal- ization, composed of the Governor, Sec- retary of State, Attorney-General, Au- ditor and Treasurer. It shows an increased taxable val- uation of $37,887,522.21 from all sources. At the maximum legal rate of 15 cents on the $100, this will increase the State's direct revenue $56,831.28 a year. Of the total increased assessment, $34,- 765,458 comes from urban real estate, farm lands and personal property. The other 233, 122,068.31 represents an in- creased assessment of the public utili- ties corporations. Of the corporations hardest hit is the Kansas City Terminal Association on account of the new Union Station in that city. Its single increase was $1,- 600,000, almost a third of the whole burden added to the public service com- panies. St. Louis Firms Fare Well, St. Louis utilities fared rather better at the hands of the board. The United Railways assessment was increased only $12. The Terminal Railway Association escaped without a dollar’s increase. The Southwestern Telegraph and Tele- phone Co. (Bell), which recently ob- tained permission from the Public Serv- ice Commission to increase its rates that it might earn what its officers called a fair return on its investment, drew an increased assessment of $256,584. The American Telephone and Telegraph Co. (Bell) was increased $215,544. The Kinloch Telephone Co. assessment was raised $16,398. The Santa Fe Railroad’s assessment was raised $139,646.35. The Chicago & Alton drew an increase of $141,656; the Milwaukee Railroad one of $70,135, and the Missouri, Kansas & Texas one of $61,242. The total increase from all rail- roads was $1,907,368.35. All property in the State is valued, for taxation purposes, at $1,857,471,323.47. Of this real estate constitutes $1,279,855,574 and personal property $378,781,840. Of the real estate, cities and towns are assessed at almost double the total for all the farm lands in the entire State, the actual figures being $800,064,692 for the former as against $479,790,882 for the country. The findings of the Board of Equaliza- tion fixes the following assessment val- uations On some of the principal St. Louis public service corporations: United Railways, $21,990,385: Termina!

PEKIN, Sept. 6.—President Yuan Shi- kai, in a recent statement, struck a hard blow at nepotism, which is so thoroughly intrenched in the Far East because of the devotion to family and the belief that caring for relatives is the best means of paying proper respect to ancestors. He said: “T have never allowed my relatives to enter into government service because 1 have strong reasons to believe that ic give Government appointments to them, especially if they have no experi- ence or proper qualifications, would only serve to convert them into parasites or dependents. To show favor to one’s rel- atives or friends should not be done at the country’s expense.“ CARMEN STRIKE AT ALBANY, M. v. Dispute Over Discharged and Suspen- sion of Workers Causes Walkout.

Dispatch and CT Jobs PUBLIC [POPE HOPES U.S. MAV START STRONG PEACE MOVEMENT Looks to America for Action When on Submarine Question Remove Obstacles to Initiative. by President. By KARL H. VON WIEGAND. A Staff C dent of the Pest- New York World. (Copyright, 1915. by Press Pub. Co.) BERLIN, Sept. 4, via The Hague and London, Sept. 6—That the Pope enter- tains high hopes of America starting a strong and effective movement in the direction of peace, as soon as agree- ment between Germany and the United States on the Lusitania and the Arabi controversies and the general submari questions removes these obstacles to an initiative on the.part of President Wil- son, is the information from a person- age in Rome in close touch with the Holy Father. When it became evident that European neutrals, as I telegraphed from Copen- hagen, could not reach an accord on a proposed conference, and when there seemed to be no prospect of their doing so, since all were too hesitant over tak- ing the initiative, the Pope again de- cided to appeal to President Wilson just as he did in my interview with him and in his Easter message to the American people given me on Easter Monday. It was the opinion of both the Holy Fatber and of Cardinal Gaspari, Secre- tary of State, as expressed to me at the time, that the sole hope for peace when the psychological moment came lay with President Wilson. To any efforts the President might make, the Pope even then pledged the utmost support of his moral influence. The Pope even at that time had high hopes that the moment would soon arrive when Presi- dent Wilson could and would take ac- tion with every prospect that his influ- ence, aided by the Holy Father’s, would be of consequence with the belligerents. Relies on American President. According to the Rome informant—a person whose name I cannot mention for obvious reasons—the Pope has never ceased to cling to that idea and was much distressed when the tension between the United States and Ger- many over the submarine question threatened to render President Wilsor impossible as a great factor toward peace. For it was upon the President that the holy father placed his one great reliance that the war might be ended much sooner than if allowed to continue through the natural course of events to the stage of exhaustion. The Pope, I am informed, followed with the greatest interest the efforts : bring about a conference among Euro pean neutrals and even asked that he might be represented in the event that arrangements for the conference took definite form. At the same time the Pope is said to have watched the controversy between the United States and Germany with: the keenest interest. The moment that a verbal agreement was practically reached between the two countries and the situation so changed that the Presi- dent might not be considered unaccept- able as a mediator, the Pope renewec his suggestion and appeal to President Wilson. Pope’s Message Featured. The German press is prominently fea- * content have not yet been published here in full, however, so that there is no editorial discussion and no one m responsible circles cares to express an opinion regarding it. For several days also the German press has been making a feature of al- ieged strong movements for peace in England, but there has been little dis- cussion of peace from the standpoint of German inclination. . While in some circles the belief ap- pears to exist that the late autumn will witness an armistice, other quarters are pervaded by extreme skepticism. It is well to bear in mind that the statement made by Chancellor von Bethmann- Hollweg to an American News As- sociation on behalf of the Kaiser re- cently, which was much exploited abroad as a bid for peace, was in reality a bit of political strategy, following closely Sir Edward Grey's letter to the press which was generally interpreted here as inclining toward peace. So far as I am able to get any opinion here of the kope's sanction, it appears to be a generally accepted belief that the Pope and President Wilson will probably be ultimately the mediatory factors, so far as initiatory steps are concerned. On my trip out ot Germany I learned upon unquestionable authority the inter- esting fact that in the Cabinet of one of the great belligerents the fear had been expressed that the President and his Washington advisers had too little practical knowledge of the intricate Eu- ropean political conditions and relations to play the role of peacemaker with a P proapect of success and that peace would have to be made from an Euro- pean standpoint and not as America might view the situation. Ready for Winter Campaigns. The idea that Germany is not ready for another winter campaign is absurd. The country is, in fact, already fully prepared, from thousands of sleighs that have again been turned out for the army to the last buttons on warm winter clothing. There is evidence of this in many directions. On authority which can be considered reliable, I learn that the process of making etplosives without cotton is 80 successful that large quantities of cot- tonless explosives are being produced daily.. The English embargo on cotton is ineffective in changing the chances of duration of war, so far as Ge. many is concerned. America Should Leave Peace Propo- sals Alone, Says Cologne Gazette. LONDON, Sept. 6.—A Reuter dispatch from Amsterdam says: “Commenting on the reported German peace propos- als, through the medium of the Pope, the Cologne Gazette remarks: „Americans would do well to leave these things alone. So long as they merely are champions of Germany's enemies, no one of us will recognize them as honest mediators. Moreover, American papers should first publish the Pope's letter to Cardinal Gibbons turing the Pope’s message to President Wilson through Cardinal Gibbons. The before speaking in an oracular manner of its contents, which obviously are un- known to them.“ — RUSSIAN LEADER “PLEADS FOR FUL GTS FOR JEWS Nation on Side of Liberty and Should End Oppression, Baron Rosen Declares. LONDON, Sept. 6.—In a dispatch from Petrograd, Reuter’s correspondent says: Speaking before the council of Em- pire Baron Rosen, former Russian Am- bassador to the United States, declared that it was the duty of the Legislature to take initiaive in introducing bills abrogating all legislation restricting the rights of Jews and the law concerning Finland. “It was time,“ he said, “for the Gov- ernment to break with the traditional policy so dear to militant nationalism. The passage of the measures advocated by Baron Rosen undoubtedly would al- leviate the onerous task of the Govern- ment in the domain of international re- lations and would be received with sat- iefaction by Russia's allies. Baron Rosen said, ‘is not only a con- DEAD BESIDE RAILWAY TRACKS Frisco Passenger Train Belleved te Have Killed Man With Crushed Skull.

He appeared to be about years old.. The body was taken to the morgue. 455 Refugees From Mexico Reach U. 8.

In this conflict against the trampling down of all rights by German militarism and against the attempt on liberty and independence Russia stanas on the side for right and lfberty: For the triumph of the ideals for which we are fighting, it is necessary that in Russia itself there should no longer be injustices or op- ons.“ “Baron Rosen pointed out that in January. 1914, when an international outbreak was imminent, he urged the House to give its serious attention to the necessity for radical changes in Russia’s internal policy. At that time the majority in the House, perplexed by the appeal, treated it with sarcastic scorn.

Mrs: Carrie Wadelmann, 50 years old. a widow, of 4468 Itaska street, died this morning at the city hospital from in- juries received Saturday night when knocked down by an automobile just after. she had stepped from a south- bound Cherokee street car at Grivois avenue and Itaska street. 7 Grover Hess, 23 years old, of 29% South Jefferson avenue, who drove the automobile, is at liberty under a com- mon-law bond he gave Saturday night to answer a charge of felonious wound ing. An order for his rearrest, pending a Coroner's inquest, was issued after Mrs. Wadelmann's death. ' Hess was driving south on Gravoia avenue. A witness told the police he was going at very high speed. In the car with him were Miss Julia Hein, 19. and Miss Corinne Coppinger, 198, both of 1723 South Jefferson avenue, and Charles Staehlin, A. of 1734 Missouri avenue. Hess and Staehlin are married. Mrs. Wadelmann had left the street car at Itaska street and had started to the west sidewalk when struck by the automobile. After hitting her, the police reported, the machine ran into an iron trolley pole, smashing the windshield; and fenders and jolting the occupants. Mrs. Wadelmann was picked up un- conscious and carried to a physicians office in the neighborhood. Miss Hein and Miss Coppinger also were taken there. From there all three were taken in an ambulance to the city hospital. Physicians at the hospital found thar Mrs. Wadelmann’s skull was fractured. She had been cut on the face, hands and legs. She was unconscious for sev- eral hours. Miss Hein was cut on the scalp and elbow, but Miss Coppinger was only bruised and shaken. * The police arrested Hess when he re- turned to the scene about an hour after . the accitient.

Associated P BLONDON Sept’ . Arthur J. Belfour, First Lord of the Admiralty, contributes the following letter to the British press. „Much has deen written about Ger- many’s military methods and aims on land; not so much about her aims and methods at sea. Yet, in truth the two e so intimately connected that neither can be understood apart from the other. In 1900 Germany first proclaimed her policy of building a fleet against Great Britain and from the point of view of her own ambitions the policy was a per- fectly sound one. She aimed at ‘world domination; and against world domina- tion the British fleet from the time of Queen Elizabeth to the present always has been found the surest and most ef- fectual protection. The Germans have every reason to be aware of the fact, for without the Britisn fleet, Frederick the Great must have succumbed to his enemies, and Prussia would scarcely have shaken off the Napoleonic tyranny. “Whatever may be thought about the freedom of the seas the freedom of the land is due in no small measure to the British ships and British sailors. “It takes time, as well as money, to create a great fleet, and German states- men were too wise to suppose that they could at once call into existence a navy able to contend on equal terms with a Power which, as they saw clear- ly enough, was the most formidable ob- stacle to their aggressive projects. But ' ithey did not on that account doubt the immedate advantages which their maritime policy conferred upon them. “They calculated that a powerful fleet, even if it was numerically inferior to that of Great Britain, would neverthe- less render the latter impotent, since no British Government would dare risk a conflict, which, however successful, might leave them in the end with naval forces inferior to those of some third Poser. This is the policy clearly, though cau- tiously, expressed in the famous pre- amble to the navy bill. It is unnecessary to add that the German Navy League entertains much more ambitious designs. “So far, neither the designs of the German Government nor those of the German Navy League have met with any measure of success. The British fighting fleet has become relatively stronger than it was 13 months ago, and there is no reason to suppose that in the future course of the war this process is likely to be arrested. It is indeed plain that, after six months of hostilitios, Admiral von Tir- pita and the Government which de serves, arrived at the same conclusion. They saw that the old policy had brok- en down and that ia new‘ policy must. be devised; submarines, they thought, might succeed where dreadnoughts and cruisers had failed. >» “Gallant Men on Coward's Job.” The change, no doubt, was adopted with extreme reluctance, and many searchings f the heart. Admission of failure in itself is unpleasant. Though we cannot regard a Government respon- sible for the Felgian atrocities as either scrupulous or humane, even the most reckless Government does not desire to perpetrate unnecessary crimes. “As to what the German navy must have felt about the new policy, we can only conjecture. But German sailors are gallant men, and gallent men do not like being put on a coward's job. They know well enough that in the old days, which we are pleased to re- gard as less humane than our own, there was not a privateersman but who would have thought himself disgraced had he sent to the bottom unresisting merchant ships; with all hands cn board, and it can have been no very agreeable reflection even t» the Ger- man Navy League, that the first not- able performance of the German fleet should resemble piracy zather than pri- vateering. “We may, therefore, safely assume that nothing but hope of a decisive suc- cess would have induced the German Ministers to inflict this new strain upon the honor of their country. Yet decisive success has not deen attained and does not seem to be in sight. J claim no gift of pronvhecy, I make no boast of the future. But of the past I can speak with assurance, and it may interest you to know that while the losses inflicted upon the German sub- marines have been formidable, British mercantile tonnage is at this moment greater than when the war began. ‘It is true that by this method of war- fare many inoffensive persons, women and children, as well as men, neutrals as well as belligerents, have been robbed and killed. But it is not only the inno- cent who have suffered; the criminals also have paid a heavy toll. Some have been rescued and are prisoners of war; but from the very nature of submarines, | lit must often happen that they drag their crews with them to destruction, and those who send them forth on their unhonored mission wait for their return in vain. “Herein lies the explanation of the amazing change which has come over the diplomatic attitude of Germany to- ward the United States. Men ask them- selves why the sinking of the Lusitania with a loss of more than 1100 men, wom- en and children was welcomed through- out Germany with a shout of triumph, i e ee allence. .

A plunge of more than 100 feet, down the shaft of the Abend coal mine, one mile north of Belleville, killed Ernest Abend, 44 years old, president of the Abend Coal Co. and one of the wealth- lest residents of Belleville, yesterday afternoon. The fall is supposed to have been accidental. Abend went to the wine: yesterday morning to direct the work of safe- guarding the lower parts against seep- age of water from the upper levels. He went home to dinner, and returned at 3:30. He went from the engine room to- ward the shaft. Soon afterward Frank Oexner, hoisting engineer, saw the safe- ty gate of the shaft open. He then got a signal from below to raise the cage. It brought Abend’s body up, accom- panied by two of the mine bosses. They had found the body wedged between the vage and tke wall of the shaft. A steel bar had crushed the head, and the neck was broken. Abend was unmarried. His mother, Mrs. Anna H. Abend, survives him, and he had a brother, Edward, and two sis- ters, Mrs. Frank M. Rumbold and Mrs. Lina A. Bay, both of the Buckingham Hotel, St. Louis. His father, the late Edward Abend, was founder of the Belleville Savings Bank.

Fearing trouble Miller told the visitor that Miss Moore was not stopping at the hotel. Lavalle drew a revolver and, pushing Miller aside, went to the third floor apartments br Robert Webster and his daughter. he latter is a chum of Miss Moore and the two occupy the same room. Lavalle entered Webster’s room dana demanded to see Miss Moore. He flourished the revolver and threatened to shoot. He told Webster that Miss Moore had promised to marry him and that he was going to make her keep her word. Webster tried to take the revolver from Lavalle and while.the two were scuffling Miller ran across the street to the central dispensary and sum- moned a policeman. Patrolman Oscar Friede, athletic instructor for the Police Department, slipped up behind Lavalle and, getting a hold on him, forced the revolver from his hands. Lavalle then turned on the policeman with his fists and the two fought all over the room. Both required medical treatment when Friede finally got the upper hand. Lavalle was taken to central station. He said he formerly kept company with Miss Moore and that he spent more than $500 on gifts for her. She had prom- ised to marry him, he said, but recently sent word to him that she had changed her mind.

All this is why residents of this city and Newport are wondering when and on whom the first blast of scandal will fall. It would surprise no one at all familiar with the situation if the first break should come at any moment. The Post-Dispatch correspondent, for instance, was told today that if a cer- tain document which newspaper men have been trying to get should be made public, that by way of reprisal some other interesting documents would be made public. The anonymous character of this paragraph is due to the fact that some of the persons most promi- nent in the case will not talk until they first have been assured that their names will not be used.

WORK FOR BABIES WILL NOT END WITH SCHOOL OPENING Children to Continue Efforts to Increase Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund as Long as Necessary. The impression seems to be rather widespread that the campaign by the Post-Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice League for saving the babies of the | over-crowded districts of the city from ailments incident to the summer sea- son, comes to a close with the opening of the city schools. It is erroneous. Commencement of the fall and winter school terms naturally brings more or less interruption to the work of the children constituting the league, but the spirit of the young people enlisted in the cause is such that so long as the CONTRIBUTIONS.

BROWNSVILLE, Tex., Sept. 6.— The disposition of troops in the Brownsville section cuntinued today. By mid-week there will be 4400 nen, cavalry, nfantr:;. artillery and signal and aero oprps in this district, a command large enough, it is hoped, to exert sufficient moral force to make the use of physical force unnecessary in maintaining quiet in the boider counties with their o per cent Mexican population. The troops are patrolling a territory nearly the size of Maine, which con- tains only one city, Brownsville. It 8 a country without roads, except near the small towns. Great spaces are cov- ered with brush traversed by trails that only experienced guides can follow Nearly everything in this brush bears thorns, some of which plerce leather. Most of the guides who knew these trails are Mexicans, ana with few ex- ceptions neither army officers nor State and county officials know whether these Mexicans are loyal American citizens or friends of the bandits and revolu- tionists. This lack of knowledge is a menace to the international relations. Because they have been unable to know what Mexicans are their friends Americans of this section bear and prepare to take action on the wildest of rumors. Some of Wild Rumors. Some of them have come to believe even that other nations are trying io involve Mexico with the United States. A few credit reports that Americans who wish intervention are behind most of the bandit outbreaks. It is pointed out as significant that of the railroad bridge burnings, or attempts at burn- ing, bandits always have waited until the trains had passed and there would be little danger of serious conse- quences. In the two months sfnce the bandits began operations four American men have been murdered. Two have been killed at Sebastian by Mexicans who were their personal enemies. Appar- ently the element of racial revenge did not enter into the killings until last week’s murder of two Americans near San Benito. It is now established that these two Americans were killed partly in retalia- tion for some picture postal cards which have been spread over Northeast Mex- ico, These were pletures of Texas rang- ers on horseback with rope about the 24 COUNTIES PA STATE'S EXPENS PAINTER DECLARE 90 Receive Back More Than, They Pay In, Lieutenant-Gov- ernor Tells Conference. 7 KANSAS CITY, Mo., Sept. 6.—Some | surprising statements were made yes- terday by W. R. Painter. Lieutenant-. Governor of Missouri, about Missouri’s revenue problem. He was in Kansas City attending the State officials’ con- ference. Among his statements were: That abotu 9 Missouri counties re- ceive back from the State more money than they pay in. The other 24, which are larger counties in the State, pay all the expenses of the State Govern- ment. That no revenue measure had been presented in the Legislature in the last 10 years that did not divert the reve- nue to some special fund and not into the general revenue fund. The revenue question, in view of the tangle now existing over the public school apportionment, was widely dis- cussed by the gathering of Missouri public officials, which included nearly all the State officers and six State Sen- ators. Most of them had different ideas about what ought to be done. But the gathering was almost unanimous that tHe revenue problem should be taken u pand met by the State, and no longer evaded. Painter Very Frank. Painter was both frank and pro- nounced in his views on the question. He said: “The entire business of the State, in- cluding the State schools, the eleemosy- nary institutions and the various State departments, is run on less money than Kansas City and Jackson County spend each year to run their business. While the institutions and the functions bt the State have been growing each year, there has not been a single revenue measure introduced in the Legislature in the last 10 years to put more money in the general fund. The few revenue measures passed have always diverted the money to some special fund. “Due to the inequalities of our pres- ent system of taxation about 90 Mis- souri counties receive back from tha State each year more money than they pay in in revenue. In other words, they contribute nothing to the expense of running the State and all its institu- tions. „1 took pains to look up the records in my own county (Carroll), one of the richest in the State. Even including man of the commissions appointed by the last Senate that unless the money appropriated. to defray the expenses of those commissions was returned to tho State by next Saturday, suits would be instituted/to recover it. It has been the custom for the Sen ate by resolution to ¢reate commissions of its members to investigate certai.: legislative subjects and report back proposed legislation to the next Legis- lature. The Senate of 1913 created sev- ‘eral such commissions and the money to defray their expenses was paid with- out question. THe past Senate created five commissions, but a storm of,protest arose from certain House members o? the , administration faction. It was charged that the commissions were merely “junketing committees.’’ Barker Overrules Practice. Attorney-General Barker gave an opinion that the Senate could not legally appropriate money by a resolution of the House alone. That reversed the pre- vious: ruling of that office. The war- rants had already been approved by State Auditor Gordon and the money paid to the chairmen of the various committees’ by the Treasurer. As soon as the Commissioners learned that the legality of the appropriations had been questioned they held their money in tact, awaiting a final decision upon what course to pursue. Several Senators re- signed from the commissions, stating that they were mere junketing' com- mittees. Meet of the Senators present at last night’s conference were in favor of re- turning the money that had been ap- propriated for the expense of the com- missions. After a long conference it was finally decided that each of the five commissions would have meetings this week and decide whether to return the money. In all $17,000 was appropriated to cover — the expenses of the Senate commis- sions. : Attorney-General Barker attended the conference. He said that he had noth- ing to do with the matter unless Treas- urer Deal asked him to institute sults to recover the money. AMERICAN BANKERS’ MEETING.

In some respects the gathering of the girls and boys in school is helpful in the work, at least so long as the necessity for earnest study after school hours Is not urgent. They find themselves to- gether, ready to canvass such plans as are in their minds and unite upon a program and the most promising means of carrying them out to the greatest jadvantage. The task of mastering their little affairs is not heavy, and Friday and Saturday evenings are open to pro- duction. In this way the campaign is éasily continued until about the mid- dle of October, at which time the chill in the atmosphere has banished the {lls which greatly afflict poor infants dur- ing the summer period. Still Talking of Show. The proceeds of the benefit perform- | by ance given recently at the Lindell The- ater, Grand avenue and Hebert street, under direction of Miss S. Friedlob, ag- gregated $81.40, as thus far reported, with perhaps a smn addition yet to come. In addition to the financial re- turn, the affair is still a topic of pleas- urable discussion in that section of the city because of the excellence with ‘which it moved and the high character of the program numbers as entertaining features. The lingering talk embraces Miss Ruth Mendelssohn’s performance on the violin, vocal solos by Misses Fe- telle Barton and Gertrude Wittcoff; Messrs. Lederette and Wittcoff, the cap- 1 tivating dancing by Misses Florence ii, | Fitzgibbon and Hortense Seches, and Miss Elsie Geigher, who was so strong a favorite in her acting and singing that Manager Goldman has engaged her for an appearance under his management. The team work by Harold Colonna and Miss Fanny Berger, no did a negro sketch dealing as a waiter and waitress, respectively, with songs and dances, also lives in the memories of the large au- dience. In the song by Witcoff was in- troduced an original topical verse that suggested that he is wasting his time so long as he remains out of the realm of poetry as a profession. Another feature of enduring type was the recitation by Miss Esther Arbetter, who gave abun- dant evidence of being splendidly adapt- ed to the art of reading. ‘For two days lite Misses Fannie Goldstein of uu Carr street and Rose Wind of 1319 Carr conducted a lemonade stand at Thirteenth and Carr streets, their popularity and industry being pro- ductive of 82.50 for the benefit of the Entertainment on Lawn. A show .was given on the lawn of #164 Shaw avenue Friday for the Fund which yielded $8.58. The yard | was decorated with Japanese lan- terns and the stage erected for this special purpose was decorated with locust greens and spider plants, con- stituting a pretty picture.

This sum was augmented by a 60-cent donation from Sarah Schuman of Bellingham, Wash.

If that were done, the inequali- ties, which now cause men to hide out notes and mortgages, would cease to exist. Money would come out from hid- ing from the Assessor. The tax rate, of course, would be cut down if this were done in the same proportion as the valuation is raised.’ There probably will be no more Sen- ate investigating commissions as a ro- sult of a conference.

All this is why residents of this city and Newport are wondering when and on whom the first blast of scandal will fall.

The impression seems to be rather widespread that the campaign by the Post-Dispatch Pure Milk and Free vee League for saving the babies of the over-crowded districts of the city from ailments incident to the summer sea- son, comes to a close with the opening of the city schools. It is erroneous. Commencement of the fall and winter school terms naturally brings more or less interruption to the work of the children constituting the league, but the spirit of the young people enlisted in the cause is such that so long as the need for relief and possibility of aid in administering it exists their interest continues active. In some respects the gathering of the girls and boys in school is helpful in the work, at least so long as the necessity for earnest study after school hours is not urgent. They find themselves to- gether, ready to canvass such plans as are in their minds and unite upon a program and the most promising means of carrying them out to the greatest jadvantage. The task of mastering their little affairs is not heavy, and Friday and Saturday evenings are open to pro- duction. In this way the campaign is éasily continued until about the mid- dle of October, at which time the chill in the atmosphere has banished the Ills which greatly afflict poor infants dur- ing the summer pertod. Still Talking of Show. The proceeds of the benefit perform- |} by ance given recently at the Lindell The- ater, Grand avenue and Hebert street, under direction of Miss S. Friedlob, ag- gregated $81.40, as thus far reported, with perhaps a smear addition yet to come. In addition to the financial re- turn, the affair is still a topic of pleas- urable discussion in that section of the city because of the excellence with ‘which it moved and the high character of the program numbers as entertaining features. The lingering talk embraces Miss Ruth Mendelssohn’s performance on the violin, vocal solos by Misses Be- telle Barton and Gertrude Wittcoff; Messrs. Lederette and Wittcoff, the ap- tivating dancing by. Misses Florence Fitzgibbon and Hortense Seches, and Miss Elsie Geigher, who was so strong a favorite in her acting and singing that Manager Goldman has engaged her for an appearance under his management. The team work by Harold Colonna and Miss Fanny Berger, no did a negro sketch dealing as a waiter and waitress, respectively, with songs and dances, also lives in the memories of the large au- dience. In the song by Witcoff was in- troduced an original topical verse that suggested that he is wasting his time so long as he remains out of the realm of poetry as a profession. Another feature of enduring type was the recitation by Miss Esther Arbetter, who gave abun- dant evidence of being splendidly adapt- ed to the art of reading. For two days lite Misses Fannie Goldstein of 1311 Carr street and Rose Wind of 1319 Carr conducted a lemonade stand at Thirteenth and Carr streets, their popularity and industry being pre- ductive of $2.5 for the benefit of the needy babies.

By mid-week there will be 4(00 nen, cavalry, nfantr:. artillery and signal and aero rps in this district, a command large enough, it is hoped, to exert sufficient moral force to make the use of physical force unnecessary in maintaining quiet in the bo.ider counties with their “ per cent Mexican population. The troops are patroling a territory nearly the size of Maine, which con- tains only one city, Brownsville. It s a country without roads, except near the small towns. Great spaces are cov- ered with brush traversed by trails that only experienced guides can follow Nearly everything in this brush bears thorns, some of which plerce leather. Most of the guides who knew these trails are Mexicans, ana with few ex- ceptions neither army officers nor State and county officials know whether these Mexicans are loyal American citizens or friends of the bandits and revolu- tionists. This lack of knowledge is a menace to the international relations. Because they have been unable to know what Mexicans are their friends Americans of this section bear and prepare to take action on the wildest of rumors. Some of Wild Rumors. Some of them have come to believe even that other nations are trying io involve Mexico with the United States. A few credit reports that Americans who wish intervention are behind most of the bandit outbreaks. It is pointed out as significant that of the railroad bridge burnings, or attempts at burn- ing, bandits always have waited until the trains had passed and there would be little danger of serious conse- quences. In the two months sfnce the bandits began operations four American men have been murdered. Two have been killed at Sebastian by Mexicans who were their personal enemies. Appar- ently the element of racial revenge did not enter into the killings until last week’s murder of two Americans near San Benito. It is now established that these two Americans were killed partly in retalia- tion for some picture postal cards which have been spread over Northeast Mex- ico. These were pictlres of Texas rang- ers on horseback with rope about the bodies of some Mexicans killed several weeks ago in the fight at Norias. The rangers did not drag these bodies. They only posed for the pictures to satisfy a photographer. The wide sale of these pictures produced bad feeling. Lawyers in Court Armed. The new Seventy-ninth District Court held its first sitting today at Rio Grande City, about 100 miles up the river from here.

R. Painter. Lieutenant- , Governor of Missouri, about Missouri’s revenue problem. He was in Kansas City attending .the State officials’ con- ference. Among his statements were: That abotu 90 Missouri counties re- ceive back from the State more money than they pay in. The other 24, which are larger counties in the State, pay all the expenses of the State Govern- ment. That no revenue measure had been presented in the Legislature in the last 10 years that did not divert the reve- nue to some special fund and not into the general revenue fund. The revenue question, in view of the tangle now existing over the public school apportionment, was widely dis- cussed by the gathering of Missouri public officials, which included nearly all the State officers and six State Sen- ators. Most of them had different ideas about what ought to be done. But the gathering was almost unanimous that tHe revenue problem should be taken u pand met by the State, and no longer evaded. Painter Very Frank. Painter was both frank and pro- nounced in his views on the question. He said: “The entire business of the State, in- cluding the State schools, the eleemosy- nary institutions and the various State departments, is run on less money than || Kansas City and Jackson County spend each year to run their business. While the institutions and the functions bt the State have been growing each year, there has not been a single revenue measure introduced in the Legislature in the last 10 years to put more money in the general fund. The few revenue measures passed have always diverted the money to some special fund. “Due to the inequalities of our pres- ent system of taxation about 90 Mis- souri counties receive back from tha State each year more money than they | pay in in revenue. In other words, they contribute nothing to the expense of running the State and all its institu- tions. “T took pains to look up the records in my own county (Carroll), one of the richest in the State. Even including hunters’ licenses, Carroll County re- ceives from the State 3600 more than it pays in.“ Painter said this inequality came about from not following the Constitu- tion. Way to Meet Problem. “My way to meet this problem would be to follow the Constitution. The Con- stitution says that all property shall be turned in at its face value for assess- ment. If that were done, the inequali- ties, which now cause men to hide out notes and mortgages, would cease to exist. Money would come out from hid- ing from the Assessor. The tax rate, of course, would be cut down if this were done in the same proportion as the valuation is raised.” There probably will be no more Sen- ate investigating commissions as a ro- sult of a conference.

It has been the custom for the Sen- ate by resolution to ¢reate commissions of its members to investigate certai: legislative subjects and report back proposed legislation to the next Legis- lature. The Senate of 1913 created sev- out question. The past Senate created tte commissipns, but a storm of protest arose from certain House members o the, administration faction. It was charged that the commissions were merely Jjunketing committees. Barker Overrules Practice. Attorney-General Barker gave an opinion that the Senate could not legally | appropriate money by a resolution of ‘the House alone. That reversed the pre- vious: ruling of that office. The war- rants had already been approved by State Auditor Gordon and the money paid to the chairmen of the various committees’ by the Treasurer. As soon as the Commissioners learned that the legality of the appropriations had been questioned they held their money in tact, awaiting a final decision upon what course to pursue. Several Senators re- signed from the commissions, stating that they were mere “junketing’’ com- mittees. Mcet of the Senators present at last night’s conference were in favor of re- turning the money that had been ap- propriated for the expense of the com- missions. After a long conference it was finally decided that each of the five commissions would have meetings this week and decide whether to return the money. In all $17,000 was appropriated to cover 2 b the expenses of the Senate commis- sions. See Barker attended the conference. He said that he had noth- ing to do with the matter unless Treas- urer Deal asked him to institute sults to recover the money.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I should like to have the opinion of some man of science as to whether or not the extensive dam- age to the walls of houses in St. Luis during the recent hurricane was causd by the rain being driven through those brick walls by the direct ferce of the wind. The tornado companies are getting out of pay- ing insurance on the recent damage by the para- graph which reads “This company shall not be liable for any loss or damage caused by water or rain,” etc. but there Is a clause in this paragraph * shall first sustain actual damage to the roofs or walls of same by the direct force of the wind.” We contend that in the recent storm these walls did first sustain actual damage by the “direct force of the wind” in that the rain was actually driven through these walls by the ferce of the wind. It is a peculiar characteristic of tornado wind that it blows objects through each other without. sometimes damaging he surround- ing parts of the object that is hit as for ‘instance the well known fact of articles such as pieces of wood driven through the trunk of trees without any oher injury to the same trees. The Weather Bureau stated explicitly that the recent storm was a continuation of the Galveston hurricane which very properly éomes under tor- nado insurance. It was a “special” storm and not an ordinary rain storm. The damage to the walls in St. Louis has been remarkable. They are water soaked and will not be dried out for pos- sibly several months. This has never happened before fn St. Louis to this peculiar extent and will not happen again in a generation. It was unques- tionably the result of the hurricane. We believe the tornado policy holders have an action in court and we are sure that the law courts will decide that the tornado insurance com- panies are liable for damages resulting from the recent storm. ee * S.

Labor’s holiday in 1915 finds the eight-hour workday much farther advanced than ever be- fore in history and settlement by arbitration or other peaceful means of adjustment in much high- er favor than even one year ago as a practical method of avoiding or minimizing the great waste of strikes. | The success with which it was employed in preventing strikes involving hundreds of thou- sands of railroad men in the Hast and West has firmly established arbitration as the indtcated natural agency for ending the labor disputes of public utility companies. After harmonizing the differences of the West- ern railroad men, it was successfully employed at Chicago in preventing a tieup on the second largest traction system of America. A strike of 1500 St. Louis teamsters rendering a service akin to that of the utility companies was ter- minated in a few hours by diplomacy and com- promise. To compute the number of workers affected during the past year by the introduction of the eight-hour day at steel plants, munition plants, ail refineries, automobile and other large indus- trial establishments is not now possible. But it must run up into the hundreds of thousands. The war which was only well under way on Labor day one year ago continues. But if the transfer of the hosts of labor from the work of production to the work of destruction is attended by sorry results in Europe, America still pre- sents a happy contras. Employment conditions have shown an amazing improvement during the year. Along with the decrease in the hours of labor there has been an increase in wages, es- pecially in industries rendered abnormally active by the war. : The Post-Dispatch congratulates the union workers on the promising outlook of the new labor year that begins today. = = * =~ Von Hindenburg is said to follow the fine mili- tary strategy of the Chinese.

Poor law and poorer policy is embodied in the opinion of the Solicitor of the Department of Labor to the effect that an American forfeits his citizenship who takes the oagh of allegiance in a foreign army. The significance of such an oath is limited. It merely signifies that faithful service will be rendered during the period of enlistment only. An American may be all, the better citizen for taking such an oath. He may be fighting for the very principles on which his citizenship is founded. The decision would have expatriated Funston and all those who fought for a free Cuba, Houston and thé thany who fédzht' for the republic of Texas before its admission, a great company of men who have fought for the sake of ideals or adventure in Latin-America. The American sol- dier of fortune is too valuable as well as pic- turesque a figure in the history of the world to be left a man without a country by a far-fetched bureaucratic ruling. = ‘ The war has been a heavy cost to neutrals. Peace sentiment, when the war is over, will surely be universal. 1 TWO MEN. If Mr. Bryan is capable of self-criticism, it must be with a chastened spirit that he now reviews the manner of his retirement from the State Department last June. -It was not until Mr. Bryan ceased to speak for the United States that Germany discovered sin- cerity and courage as well as determination in the attitude of the administration at Washington. The cause of peace will not make much head- way unless it is based upon right and justice. To be merely nonresistant is not to promote peace. To be not only a nonresistant but a pal- terer, also is to invite insult and assault. A few weeks more of Bryan in the State Department would have increased German defiance to a point at which an accommodation would have been im- possible. Results have shown that when he ran away from an issue regarded by him as certain to lead to war, he, in fact, opened the way for men of sterner stuff to establish an honorable In the negotiations of late the true Germany has been face to face with thé true America. It was necessary to set aside Mr. Bryan before any- body in Berlin could summon the vigor to sup- press the military party which held him and his country in contempt. Mr. Bryan was more than an embarrassment to the Government and people of the United States. By his trifling with a mo- mentous question he was leading Germany itself: into new perils. The American who has won a triumph for peace is not Mr. Bryan, who feared and evaded trouble, but Mr. Wilson, who confronted it pat tlently but unflinchingly. —d —— 2. — — — All New Tork waiters must be medically ex- d.

Ea. . 110 a AMBASSADOR DUMBA., STRIKE LEADER. Ambassador C. T. Dumba of Austro-Hungaria is inclined to take a facetious view of the cor- respondence he sent his Government by James F. J. Archbald relative to plans for embarrassing the work of American manufacturers. “I cannot understand how Mr. Archbald could have been so stupid,” he says. But if the latter was stupid was it not a perpetuation of the original stupidity of the embassy? The indiscretion was the Am- bassador’s, Mr. Archbald’s only offense was in getting caught. Contentions of the Austro-Hungarian Cabinet presented by Mr. Dumba relative to certain ex- ports from America were rejected in toto by President Wilson. Mr. Dumba thereupon en- deavors to enforce those contentions in part by meddling in the internal affairs of the country, by seeking to handicap the industries on which those exports depend. Minister Sackville-West was sent home in dis- grace because he gave to a single citizen of British nativity his views as to the political ac- tion in a domestic election that might best serve British policy. Was his offending so much greater than that of Mr. Dumba who counsels many former Austro-Hungarian subjects to form a conspiracy in furtherance of Austro-Hungarian policy? Under government by injunction a restraining order might be obtained against agitators seeking to cause labor troubles for frivolous causes. Must a restraining order be asked for against the agi- tating diplomatic representatives of great Powers? It may be that an administration prepared to make many sacrifices for peace and genuinely de- sirous of lessening sources of friction will refrain from the action the incident seems to warrant. But if the gravity of the affair is overlooked, it should only be on the distinct pledge that this internal plotting shall cease. However, to send Mr. Dumba home and ask Vienna to replace him with a representative more satisfactory and more appreciative of the responsibilities of his high office would greatly clarify the issue, prevent further irritation in this country and give new force in all parts of the world to long established diplomatic usages which the stress of war seems to be breaking down. = = i i 4 WAR-TIME LABOR DAY PROCLAMATION Workingmen of the world—including every- body not an idler—unite!

How a town by the name of Lemmon, knowing the temperamental vagaries of American para- graphers, ever dared to get mixed up with such a thing is not easy to explain. It is a fact, how- ever, that Lemmon, S. D., established, some years ago, a municipal saloon which is managed by three City Commissioners, just as a City Art Museum or City Park Department might be run; that in addition to paying the city a license fee of $2000 a year, the saloon is netting Lemmon $1000 a month. The statement that Jersey lightning is now furnishing lights for the town, an electric plant having been bought with the profits, does not cover the full beneficence of the enterprise. High- Halls are, in fact, helping to supply the town with paid off the $20,000 debt on the waterworks plant. | With such a start, the private owners and op- erators of gin Ils, lighting plants and water- supply plants will still find the town a lemon when it gets bigger and the franchise-grafting is worth while. = = “I was born an American, I live in America, and I shall die an American,” said Daniel Web- ster: Daniel was fortunate enough to pass away before the day of the hyphen. i „ ‘‘WAITING FOR THE BREAEK.’’ Mooser Victor Murdock manifests thusly: “The Progressive party as an organization has come to stay. Like a losing baseball team we are just waiting for the break, and when it comes, which, by the way, may be in 1916, we'll select a President.” We have an idea that the selection will be the same old selection. The Progressive party is nothing if not true to himself one year with an- other, and no amount of waiting can wear out his bush-league ambitions. = = — a es MONEY BY PARCELS POST.

The New York constitutional conven- tion had a stormy discussion over the proposal that all voters must be able to read and write the English language. After being advanced toward final pas- sage by a vote of 70 to 61, it was set aside by another narrgw vote, 77-67. The division was nonpartisan in the broadest sense, but the racial opposition was ex- treme, due to a state of mind for which the Nuropean war is responsible. In or- ainary times such a question might have had consideration more on its merits. A “literacy” test for voting is evt- dently a very different thing from one to qualify for American citizenship. It applies to all citizens, native as well as foreign born, if not in the same degree when, as is usual, the provision calls for ability to read and write English. How- ever, since the ballot is bound to be sole - ly in that language, it would seem to be not unfair to require that the foreign- born voter be proficent enough in the tongue of his adopted country to stand the test. As a general principle, for the assimilation of our immigrant popula- tion, it is sound policy to encourage fa- miliarity with the language as early as practicable. That is of immense assist- ance in inculcating the necessary in- struction in American institutions. Such a constitutional provision is not unfamiliar, of course. California, Con- necticut, Delaware, Massachusetts. Maine, Mississippi, New Hampshire and Wyoming are among the states that re- quire the citizen to qualify for the fran- chise by reading from the Constitution, and some of them have a writing test as well. The rule seems not to cause se- rious complaint, and it was apparently originated without special reference to immigration; being, rather, designed as a check on illiteracy generally.

Under the paradoxical title, “German Freedom,” George Santayana tells in the New Republic what Germans mean by freedom. “There is a fine theory of Hegel’s that the universe exists in order to realize freedom. In Oriental despotisms, he tells us, only one man was free. In an- client. republican cities a minority, the aristocracy of citizens, obtained free- dom.

OR the lady who lived at Hillcrest, mistress of that splendid estate, Albion Weare had always enter- tained the highest respect—and some- thing more. She was thirty, the bloom on her cheek a trifle faded, but his ideal still. How he reverenced her! He did not know it, in his blind humility, but Miss Heien Tyrell re- spected him infinitely. Whenever she had a party of close friends at a s0- social function at the elaborate old man- gion, Albion was honored with an invita- tion. He was master complete of the violin, she a mistress of song and piano. Those hours of mutual music bewitch- ment neither would ever forget. He was thinking of Miss Tyrell now, @nd very seriously. She was rich, he was poor. It was his humble trend of mind—ever descanting his real ability— that kept him back. As chemist of the great drug factory located at the edge of the town he was of value, but it was the policy of the company to take ad- vantage of him. Now he had made a discovery of importance. He had come across it quite by chance and in his own private laboratory at home. In it his omploy- ers had no part or parcel. It involved a new process of securing from illumi- nating oils over 50 per cent additional power. “If I tell them up at the works about it they will simply appropriate it, just as they have other fruits of my labor,” *poliloquized Albion. “No, I feel certain my discovery is important and valuable. J have written a broker in Chicago. He wants $2000 advance fees and organiza- tion money. I have a thousand. If I could only borrow an additional like | amount—b:iz Miss Tyrell—no! no! I can- not bring myself to ask her for it.’’ How willingly, how gladly, would she have accommodated him! And he knew that this was so. He feared, however, to disturb their cherished, harmonious relations. Business was a harsh ele- ment; it might lead to the impairment of their pure and tender friendship. So Albion put the suggestion of borrowing from Miss Tyrell completely out of his mind. Albion Gets the Money. os was a last resource, but Al- bion hesitated for a long time be- fore he was driven to employ it. Tunis was to mortgage the quaint old- » fashioned and not very valuable home- stead in the village that had been left to him by his dead mother. He felt it almost sacrilegious the day he affixed his signature to a mortgage for $1000, but there was no way out of it if he expected to exploit his formula. Albion did not inform Miss Tyrell = his plans. He secured a leave of ab- — — — sence of a month from the works and simply told her that he would probably be absent most of that time in the city. She missed him before he had been gone a week She wrote him friendly letters showing that she esteemed him, and they wer? sweet balm to his anxious soul at the most trying period of his life. For Albion, inexperienced in he ways ot the professional promoter and finan- cler, was suddenly confronted witn worry and complication that tested all his faith and nerve. The broker had troceeded to develop his formula by or- ganizing a stock company. This cost money. There was expensive advertis- ing, there were large fees to pay to expert chemists and engineers. The $2.00 was soon used up. “A thousand more and we shall see daylight.“ premised the broker. Impossible!“ groaned Albion. a have absolutely exhausted my last re- scurce.“ “Too bad to fail now, when a few weeks’ further negotiations wiil place us in a fully organized condition. Are you willing to borrow the new thou- sand?’’ „But I have no security to give!“ de- clared Albion, gloomily. “Oh, yes you have,” insisted the glib and resourcetful promoter—‘‘there’s the stock of the company.”’ It isn’t worth its face—“ began Al- bion. “No, not vet, but it will be some time,“ declared the optimistic broker. “If you are willing to put up a con- {rolling block of the stock as collateral I can get you the loan.“ “Go ahead,” acceded Albion, though not hopefully.

ACTS and theories are current anent the trend of fashion at this moment. To those who Study fashions the obscure, not the obvious, is the lure. Always lurking in the shadows is a real power, an actual influence, a strong touch that the thousands do not know. All of you know the obvious things in the foreground of fashion. You were made a part of the revolution that swirled women out of sheath skirts into crinolines, from loose baggy waists into tight bodices; you represent the immense American pub- lic that considers the exact news of fashion as a right and appreciates the important movements in dress. During the summer your interest may have somewhat slackened, but the fall is sure to awaken it. A one- piece dress and a suit for street wear are usually needed as soon as the first cool days appear. While skirts are full there is no tendency to make them flare away, but rather many times they are laid in flat plaits in places. When a skirt is circular the folds slink in to the figure and only flare when one is in motion, This is a good evidence of womankind's dis- like for the petticoat. While it was inconvenient with the- narrow skirt, it seems unnecessary and impractical with the full one. For trimming the fall dress or suit, braid is extremely well liked and can be used in a variety of ways. On the frocks shown here it forms the main elaboration and chief distinction, The figure at the left suggests a light- weight quality of dark blue serge for the frock, but the waist is made to share with black satin. It forms the slightly flaring sleeves which are in one with the under-arm sections, and achieves an admirable effect, espe- cially pretty in consideratiom of the black braid trimming massed in the front. Here a panel of the serge al- most covered with straps of braid is inserted from neck nearly to the belt. A pleasing touch of color is afforded by the novelty buttons which so effectively mark the side of the panel where the frock is opened. A tiny cuff of white silk and a flaring collar of the same are re- freshing finishes for sleeves and neck. The skirt, though straight and full, as most skirts are, boasts an Mone Can Make | U . — uy ‘ * ~ b 3 — — ~ — 2 — * : a odd trimming in the way the black braid is used. It repeats in four in- serted panels around the bottom of the skirt the charming effect intro- duced on the waist. The model at the right shows quite a different frock constructed after the same design. It is especially suit- able for a pretty plaid goods, as the panels offer an unusual oppor- tunity for counter manipulation, Cut on the bias, their conservative trim- ming qualities are emphasized by the velvet buttons across the top of each panel. On the waist the buttons line up on the opening side of the panel. They may be in a color to match the plain material which is used for the sleeves, or in black, to strike a char- acterful note. If desired, the sleeves and belt may be of taffeta and the flaring collar of the same. days of grace, the end of which would see him bereft of his great discovery At times, however, his delirious mood grew into soft and tender appeals to the woman to whom he had never told his love. And in the adjoining room Helen Tyrell hid her blushing face in her hands, and her breath came quicker and the swift tears told of the deep, heart- felt interest she felt in this lonely man, buffeted so cruelly by the adverse tides of fate. One evening Miss Tyrell was visited by a stranger. He was the broker who had vainly awaited the promised return of his ciient to the city. It was natural that he should tell the story disclosing the negotiations of Albion. In the wealthy heiress he found a willing and sympathetic auditor. The nurse attending Albion hastened into the sick room one beautiful June morning at the unexpected call of her patient. Her face brightened, for in one glance at the bed she had read the first tokens of a past crisis and the promise of convalescence in the wasted face. He was straining his eyes towards a calendar upon the opposite wall. He mo- tioned to the nurse weakly. Tell me,” he spoke hoarsely— the the day of the month.“ “Six Days Too Late.” NNOCENTLY she named it. A deep groan burst from the lips of the sick man and he fell back prostrated, with the words: “Six days too late! I have lost every- ching.“ Then he was awake and sen- sible for the rest of the day, but there Was a set, hopeless expression to his face that the experienced nurse did not like to see there. When Miss Tyrell came she told her of the incident. In a moment Helen read the situation—and its remedy. “Mr. Weare,” she spoke gently, almost tenderly, as she approached the bedside of the patient. His eager soul in his wasted face, Al- bion took her hand in a fervent clasp. “Are you strong enough to hear a little, a very little, about business?“ she intcrrogated. J have little business left, he sighed, but gave a weak assent to her proposi- tion. And then she told of the broker com- ing to her, of redeeming the stock just in time, or her supplying new capital— and the company was a success! “You did this all for me,“ he choked ae 9° “Because you are my dearest friend,“ sre said, and her eyes were fond and loving. “Oh! why did you not tell me of your need for money? Alas! I can help you no further, for your discovery has made you very rich.“ _ What came of it all? Greater wealth for faithful, patient Albion Weare—the added riches of the love of a true woman.

CASTORIA For Infagts and Children in Use For Over 30 Years 4 Cara’s Cloud Castle — — — By Mrs. F. 16 ARA, dear, I wisn you would ( deliver this gown for me this | afternoon,’ sighed Mrs. Ben- son one sunny October day, as the girl came in from school and dropped her books on the sewing table. I have promised it to Mrs. Brown before dinner time.“ Cara jerked up the package «crogsly and set out on her way across the d. As she went she grumbled to herself about her fate. “Other girls have so much better things than I do,“ she mugf- tered. It is easily to be seen that Cara wasa selfish girl. Her mother worked hard to keep the girl nicely dressed and at a good school, where she was learning to be a teacher, but the child did not ap- preciate this. It was dusk when Cara rang the bell at Mrs. Brown's and was shown into a beautiful parlor. On the polished floor were priceless rugs, handsome portraits looked down from the walls and richly carved mahogany furniture was scat- tered about the room, which bore every evidence of comfort and luxury. The October air came softly in through the open windows, which looked out on spacious grounds and beds of flowers. Cara took a seat in a big chair beforea crackling fire with a sigh of @ontent. 61 OW beautifu: the clouds look,“ N murmured the girl fretfully. “And how dull is my life, What chance have I to do any great deed or make any famous name. Up there the clouds look so delightfully far away from trouble—like great castles of fairyland, hurrying toward the sun.” Cara was surprised to feel her chair floating. Very softly it rose in the air and drifted out of the window, up, up till she saw she was approaching a great cloud, snowy white, which was rolled up into the appearance of a cas- tle. On the walls appeared fairies of every color, all radiant in the evening flush which seemed to sweep the heav- ens. As the chair touched the shores of the pink mist a fairy sprang down from the wall to greet the girl. “So you are Cara?“ said the fairy, kindly. Welcome to Cloudland Castle. We saw you were unhappy and thought we would bring you here for a few hours.“ Then, taking Cara’s hand, she led the girl over the magnificent palace. Its furniture was of gold, mirrors formed the sides of the rooms and foun- tains of jewels sang in its snowy courts. In one room the girl was surprised to see hundreds of fairies sitting before a large loom, which is a machine on which cloth is woven. The sprites were very busy, singing as they worked in the dif- ferent colors, some using black, others white, many gray. violet, gold, and crimson. “This ia the reom in which the threads of life of you mortals are wov- en, explained the fairy. ‘‘Here in this castle in the clouds we live and watch the people of earth.

She hung her head in shame. HE fairy led the girl to the 2 edge of the cloud castle and told her to look down upon earth, Strange to say, she could see right down through the roofs of houses. Around the table in some rich homes were gathered groups of quarreling, unhappy people, while in some poor cottages were the smiling faces of contented parents and chil- dren. At her own home she saw her mother patiently mending a dress which the girl had torn the day be- fore and selfishly left for her mother to fix. Cara’s eyes filled with tears. J have learned the lesson,“ she said in a voice trembling with pain. J have been sighing for wealth to do great things and leaving undone the simple duties at home, which are the really great things of life. How unkind I must seem to/ mother, who is so good to me.” “Cara,” called a voice at her elbow. Cara opened her eyes, not in her castle in the clouds, but in the parlor in which she had taken a nap. “Here is the money for your mother,” said the lady. “And if you care to teach my little boy an hour on three afternoons of each week I will pay for your music lessons this year.” With a joyful heart the girl ac- cepted and ran home a different child from the one which had left it an hour before. Working hard to make her mother happy, she soon be- came one of the happiest girls her- self. (Copyright. 1915, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.

FEDERAL LEAGUE PARK, Sept. 6. —About 8000 fans were on hand at the start of today’s double-header between the Whales and Terriers. Today’s game marked the first ap- pearance of Arnold Hauser, the for- mer Cardinal, on a local diamond in over two years. He cavorted around second base in the preliminary prac- tice but did not get into the line-up. His fast fielding and sharp throwing brought much applause from the crowd. McConnell and Wilson were in the points for the Whales, while Willett and Hartley handled the heavy work for Jones’ crew. O’Brien and McCormack were the umpires. FIRST INNING. CHICAGO—Zeider doubled to left. Flack walked. Zwilling walked, filling the bases. Groom replaced Willett. Wilson walked, forcing in Zeider.

We have given much thought to this matter of late and after thoroughly analyzing the situation and viewing it from every possible angle, we do net think it is so much the increased effec- tiveness of the Fo gg y “as it is a tend- ency on the of e batters to knock the bait into the hands of the outfielders or hit it within reach of an infielder, only to be thrown out at first. If the batters would arrange to knock the ball to some where neither an outfielder or an infielder could get his hands on it, we do not doubt that the daun would increase matertall ly. us setting forth our views we do not wish to appear pedantic.
