C Collins Says Brother Has Disagreed With Co Trustee of Fathers Property and That Control of Hamilton- Brown Shoe Co. Has Been Endangered. TO HEAD OF FIRM Petition Declares He Voted All of Stock to Obtain Presidency—aAlleges He Acquired Other Property at Price Below Actual Value. A social and business breach in the family of the late Alanson D. Brown, multimillionaire shoe manufacturer, was disclosed today when Mrs. Jane B. Collins of 616 Kingsbury - boulevard, Brown’s daughter, filed suit in the Cir- cuit Court asking that her brother, Alanson .C. Brown, president of the Hamilton-Brown Shoe Co., be removed as trustee of their father's estate. Mrs. Collins alleges that her brother and the St. Louis Union Trust Co., the co-trustee, have disagreed about the ad- ministration. of the estate and as a re- sult the control of the Hamilton-Brown Shoe Co. stock may be lost to the es- tate. The will ef A. D. Brown named his son, the St. Louis Union Trust Co. ana his wife, Ella S. Brown, as trustees of the Brown Shoe Co. Mrs. Brown h since died, and, according to the petition of Mrs. Collins, her brother and the St. Louis Trust Co. have disagreed in re- spect to the management of the shoe company. It is alleged in the petition that the | beneficiaries, of which Mrs. Collins fs one, Rave repeatedly..urged upon her brother the necessity of agreeing with the co-rtrustee, upon some proper person to fill thé place left vacant by the death of Mrs. Brown. It is claimed that Brown has failed and even refused to do this, but on the contrary has tried to obtain the consent of the St. Louis Union Trust Co. to the appointment of his own counsel to this position, so as to se- cure unto himself the practical con- trol of the voting of the stock. of the corporation and to secure unto him- self the presidency of the company. “Assumed to Vote Shares.” It is alleged that, at the election last January, Brown “assumed” to vote shares belonging to the Brown estate, without the consent of his co- trustee, the St. Louis Union Trust Co., and that he voted these shares for himself 4s a director, and for other directors who. were directly depend- ent on vim for employment, and in this manner caused himself to be elected president, at a large salary. ‘The charge is also made that Brown placed himself ih a position of antag- onism:. toward the estate, and in direct and positive conflict with the estate’s interest. The relations between Brown and some of the beneficiaries of the es- tate, including the plaintiff. it is stated, have become’ “unfriendly, and in the highest degree strained, so as to pre- vont friendly communion between them.“ “As a matter of fact,“ the petition con- tinues, “the relations between the de- fendant and the plaintiff, and one of the other beneficiaries,’ have been 80 impaired that no business or social in- tercourse was had between them.” Brows the petition charges, has never Furnished the plaigtiff or any of the beneficiaries of the estate with infor- mation concerning the estate’s affairs, and has not consulted them with regard to the management. It is charged that papers prepared by the trust company, and intrusted to him for delivery to the plaintiff and her sisters, giving infor- mation as to the estate's affairs, have not been delivered to them. It is also charged that he has resent- ed the action of the trust company in endeavoring to get informatidn as to the manner in which he has handled the affairs of the corporation, and that he has resented the 1 company’s suggestions. Mbjected to Sale ot Stock, The petition asserts. that among ithe assets of the estate were cer- tain shares of the Pitchfork Land and Cattle Co., worth at least 3800 per share, and which could have been ; wold at $200 a share.

ATTACKS HIS ELECTION ETF —ü . —²—:UU LO A , — — MIKE MULDOON, “CLASSIC CUSSER,” TOOK 19 POUNDS OFF PASTOR WILLIAMSON Minister, Back From Training Farm of Former Wrestler, Says Course He Was Put Through Was No Picnic. Dr. William J. Williamson, pastor of the Third Baptist Church, is slowly re- covering at his home, 716 Belt avenue, from a cure.“ Though he is in fine physical condition, he isn’t feeling very | well, thank you. He is suffering from the reaction following a six weeks’ stay at William Muldoon's training farm at Purchase, N. Y., where the one-time champion heavyweight wrestler of the world reduces the waist line and im- proves the wind of wealthy and promi-- nent men. Dr. Williamson took the full course of training and he is ready to testify that it was no Sunday school picnic. When he went to the farm he weighed 217 pounds of fat, and he now weighs 198 pounds of muscle. Before he returned 1 Muldoon warned him that the reaction would come, and he is not worrying about it, as he believes that its effect will soon wear off and he will be in fine shape for the fall and winter. Fifteen other men were taking the training while Dr. Williamson was there. One was a Lieutenant of the United States coast artillery, one was a son of the late E. H. Harriman and an- other was patent attorney for the Beth- lehem Steel Co. No Respecter of Persons. Dr. Williamson today told a Post- Dispatch reporter he soon discovered Muldoon was no respecter of persons As nearly as he can recall, the greet- ing he received from Muldoon on ‘his arrival was like this: “Why, you big hunk of flesh! You call yourself a smart man and you don’t know enough to keep yourself in condition. You’re all below the chin. There's nobody home upstairs.”’ This was a rather hard jolt for a man who prides himself on his intellectu- ality, but Dr. Williamson soon found that Muldoon played no favorites. Muldoon makes it clear that he is ab- solute boss and the men who are pay- ing him $60 a week for their board and training are not supposed to speak to him unless he first speaks to them. Dr. Williamson describes Muldoon as a “classic cusser.” He says he heard more profane language in his six weeks. at the farm than he ever expects to hear again. It would take more dashes than the allies made at the Darda- nelles to indicate Muldoon’s caustic re- marks to his clients while they are go- ing through the training exercises, he says. The burden of it all is that they are a lot of big fat mutts who are be- neath the contempt of, any man who knows how to keep himself in physical point of collapse, while Muldoon looked on and berated’ them in his classic“ style. Then came breakfast. To Dr. -Willlamson’s surprise he found that there was no system of diet- ing at Muldoon’s farm. For breakfast. there was steak, chops or bacon, one cup of coffee and u glass of water. After breakfast the usual program was a 12-mile horseback journey into the mountains. It was a journey, not a ride, bécause at intervals the “big fat dubs” were required to dismount and lead their horses over three or four miles of rough going. Muldoon, who led the cav- alcade, would set. the pace’ and they must follow his lead and gait,. wherever and however he went. It made no dif- ference whether they had ever been in the saddle before. Benches iu Sun for Naps. Except at meals the entire day must be spent outdoors. There Were benches on which.the “soft- -headed dubs” might take a nap in the afternoon, but they were all out in the full glare of the sun. Woe to the man found seeking a shady place for a nap. He would, hear several yards of Muldoon’ s classiest Classic profanity. One of Muldoon’s Mttle jokes on new arrivals was to tel] them he would take them, out for a picnic on Sunday. In a big wagon they would be taken ten or twelve miles into the hills. When they alighted Muldoon would leave them there and tell them they’d have to walk back. “I hope you mutts will get back in time for dinner, because it's going to be a good one, he would say. On the first: Sunday Dr. Williamson was there one dignified New Yorker was boiling over with wrath when this joke was played on him. He need he would give Muldoon a pl of his mind“ when he got back. On his re- turn to the farm he walked up to Mul- doon and was about to let loose the vials of his wrath: when Muldoon looked him over and naid: Well, you big, fat mutt, vou did get back, ditmt you?” The apsry man couldn't think of an an- swer. | “Loosens Up” a : Little. On the last day of a client's stay, Dr. Williamson says, Muldoon “loosens. up” to a certain extent and may even con- descend to talk about the ita so When Williamson departed the n shook hands with him and gave him his autographed portrait.

Leman, when taken before Chief of Detectives Allender, maintained aggres- tively that he had no knowledge of any negotiations leading to arson. With an air which suggested defiance, he said to Allender: “I don’t give a damn who burns out; it’s my business to adjust fires."’ That's the only reason we arrested you,” said Allender, “because we thought you didn’t give a damn who burned out.“ Leman denied that he had ever talked with any member of the Christen firm, but said it was possible that he had been at the Christen plant, as he had frequently gone out with Baker in Baker’s automobile and had visited a number of establishments with Baker.

Bentley explained his presence by saying that the adjustment company Thad gathered some information pertain- ing to incendiary fires, and that he was acting in an advisory capacity, to see that nothing was overlooked while the Circuit Attorney was going over the facts in the cases. About 6 o'clock a package was deliv- ered to Leahy by a boy. Because of its size and shape there was a report thay it contained cylindrical dictaphone rec- ords.

N for — us said it Was plain Those ships were carrying toward Copenhagen, when captured, more than 13 times the amount of goods which, under normal ciroumetances, they would have taken to that port. That fact gave practical and overwhelming assurance that the goods were intended for Germany, al- though, of ree, it did not prove con- clusively that they were destined for an enemy of Great Britain. One circumatance throwing light on the real destination of the goods. Sir Samuel said, was that the exportation of lard. by one American company alone to Copenhagen in three weeks after the outbreak of the war was 20 times the shipments in periods of peace. As to tins of canned meat, he said, it had not been shown that they had been sent to Denmark in any great quantity before the war, yet hundreds of thau- sands were on the way when the ves- gels were captured. These ting, ‘t seemed, could not have been meant for any persons other than German sol- diers. Referring to the consignments of rub- ber, described as gum, the President said: “I have come to thé conclusion that gum is not a true commercial de- scription for rubber and that it was used in the Shins manifests in order to avoid the difficulty which would result in its capture by a belligerent. Any conceal- ment of this sort will, while I sit in the prize court, weigh heavily against those who adopt such courses. Neutrale are expected to conduct their neutral trade during the war with- out false papers and with candor, and belligerents are entitled to expect from neutrais a frank course of conduct.” Value of Meat, $15,000,000, Sir Samuel allowed one claim of a Danish manufacturer for a quantity of rubber, which he said had been shipped in good faith for use in his factory. An- other claim was disalivuwed. The meat cargoes, shipped for the most part by the great American pack- ing companies and valued by them at $15,000,000, were found by the President to be destined, except for somé small items, not for consumption in Denmark, but for delivery in Germany. He held that their eventual) destination was tho German Government, for the use of its naval and military forces. To rule otherwise, Sir Samuel said, would be «> allow one’s eyes to be blinded by the- ories and technicalities. The court disallowed 16 claims, includ- ing those of the Morris, Armour, Ham- mond, Swift and Sulzberger companies. It allowed eight claims, including that of the Cudahy company of Chicago. The others were Danish consigners. Sir Samuel gave leave to appeal, fix- ing security for the costs at $25,000, di- Vislole among the appellants. He also gave the crown attorneys leave to ap- peal in the cases of the Cudahy and other claims which were allowed. Cenfiscated Meat to Be Complete Loss tos Chicage Packer.

I do not expect to have any- thing more to say with reference to this matter in the next two weeks.“ Count von Bernstorff discussed the sinking of the British steamer Hesperian, insisting in an informal way that his first claim as to what caused the ship to go down had now been verified, de spite what he called “the suspicion of the American people about that Ship.“ The Ambassador emphasized the fact that, under present conditions, ex- changes of communication with his Gov- ernment were necessarily tedious pro- ceedings and he added that it was due to this fact that he fixed the time for a settlement at two weeks. NO U-BOAT REPORT AS TO HESPERIAN By KARL H. VON WIEGAND. A Staff Correspondent ot the Post- Dispatch and the New York World. (Copyright, 191§, by Press Pub. Co.) BERLIN, via the Hague, Sept. 16.— “With but one more of our U-boats to hear from, one which can hardly come into consideration, I can almost guar- antee that the Hesperian was not sunk by a German submarine,“ declared the Chief of the Admiralty Staff to me to- day, when I called on him in Admir- alty Building, It was the first time in the war that the Chief of the German Admiralty had received a correspondent. “Our U-boats are sent out to cover specific areas,“ the Admiral continued, “and I know pretty well within a given radius where each submarine is. I stat- ed that no U-boat was on duty in the area, on Sept. 4, where the Hesperian was sunk, A few days, yet, and I shall hear from one U-boat nearest the point where the Hesperian was sunx—but which was so far away she hardly can come imo consideration-the report of which will certainty confirm that no German submarine caused the sinking.” The Admiral declared that circum- stances and English testimony all point- ed toward a floating mine rather than a torpedo. “I would like to call your attention to just two things which do not fit the theory of a torpedo,“ he said, First, that neither the lookout on the Hes- perian nor anyone else saw a torpedo, although it was just that hour of dusk when the white, silvery path of a tor- pedo is best seen. Second, that, according to the in- formation we have from the English papers, the ship was struck on the stem, very little below the water line. If that is true, it is practically exclud- 70 Per Cent of short his vacation to return to St Louis and take part in the anti- arson campaign, told a Post-Dispatch reporter today that he hoped the Board of Aldermen would promptly pass the Fire Marshall bill, duced at tomorrow's Board, and that he would be author- ized to make the appointment. “If I do name a fire marshal,” he said, “he will be an honest-to-God Man“ Chief Henderson said that, while the number of incendiary fires is small, in comparison with those of accidental origin, the incendiary fires have caused fully 70 per cent of the city’s total fire loss in the last two years. He said the prevalence of these conditions here had become known to the fire authorities of other cities, and that at the fire chief’s convention in Cincinnati, a few days ago, the chiefs of other cities expressed surprise at the failure of the city legis- laters to provide the office of fire mar- shal. Henderson said two things indicate, to the trained fireman, the incendiary ori- gin.of a fire. One is an unaccountably rapid spread of the flames before the firemen arrive; and the other, in the case of more important fires, carried out by organized gangs, is the use of falso alarma, just before a fire breaks out, tc draw the nearest fire apparatus in other directions. As Assistant Chief Rucker told in an interview in yesterday's Post- Dispateh, there were two such false alarms in the neighborhood of the Christen bellows plant last Saturday afternoon. Tou can take it straight from me.“ he said, that if, by the time the depart- ment apparatus reaches a fire in the city, the flames are rolling out of sev- eral windows, there is something crooked about that fire. The men all know it. Time after time the first men at a fire have reported to me that they found a smell of gasoline about a burn- ing place almost strong enough to make them sick, when they first entered the building. But while we knew this, we had no authority to make arrests, to compel anyone to attend an inquiry, to look up the business records of a firm. “Why, at times it has been absolutely disgusting to have some man, whom you know to a moral certainty to be re- sponsible for a serious fire, come up be- | — Fis CHIEF HENDERSON, who cul which will be intro- ! meeting of the to Incendiarism, Chief Declares Hopes Fire Marshal Bill Wit Pass Henderson Says if He Is Em-| FIRE CHIEF HENDERSON. | side you, while the blase is in progress, and say: ‘Hello, Chief, have you any idea how this thing started? “This. very thing happened to me at one of the fires now under investiga- tion, I turned to the man and gaid: It anyone knows how this started, you ought to be the one.“ He just grinned at me and walked off. Henderson said the St. Louls fire loss should not exceed $760,000 a year, but that in the first seven months of 1915 the loss had been $961,938. This is not so bad as the first seven months of 1914, when the losses reached a total of .- 139, 445. The Chief attributes the decrease to the work of the Fire Prevention Club, which has a membership of 780 business men, and which has brought about per- sonal inspection of buildings, and an interchange of information bearing on arson plots and methods. Two arrests on a charge of arson have resulted from the club's activities. He mentioned the different methods prevailing in European cities, where g- rious fires almost as rare as earth- quakes, and where fire insurance rates are low, In some Nuropean countries, he said, the owner of a building is re- quired to explain a fire, and is held Ma- ble for damage done to adjoining prop- erty. — Sister Sues to Oust A.

American bankers would like to have them run long enough to make it possible to trade in them, and on that basis a 10-year bond is regarded as more attractive than one for five years. The commissioners are understood to look with favor on this suggestion, and it seemed probable last night that the bonds might be divide into series. There may be four such series, and almost certainly there will be two. [If there should be two, one series would mature in five years and the other in ten. If there should be four sertes, the maturities would range from five to ten years. Firm Against Added Security. Expressions is still being given in some quarters to the belief that some other security for the bonds ought to be given than the credit of the British — French Governments alone. There if authority for the statement, however, that the commissioners will not consent to any other basis. Their attitude, which they have stated in so many words, is that it is preposterous to suppose that a year of war could impair the credit of either nation, and none of the bankers who has talked with the visitors thinks they will recede from that position. Emphasis is being laid by the commis- sioners on the fact that Great Britain nevcr before went away from home for a loan, and that if this one is not at- tractive to Americans she will turn else- where.

Perhaps the most effective of the motion plo- tures was that showing the casting of a big gun in the Wootwich arsenal, and its firing. Roberson had many good things to say about England, and he prefaced them, as he did his remarks about Ger- many on the first two nights, by say- ing that he preferred to tell of the good of each country. as the fourth 888 of his series, Roberson will show “Con- stantinople and the Dardahelles,” in- cluding a tour of the Mediterranean _ nd the ports of Spain, Franoe, Italy, PCC . Bielly, | . Greece, Palestine and Egypt. Nice, Monte Carlo, Naples and Cairo will: be among the places visited. Mo- tion pictures will show a Spanish bull fight, the making of champagne in Frarice, the eruption of Mount Vesu- vun Messina after the earthquake, scenes in Constantinople and a visit to the pyramids of Egypt.

FORT WORT, Tex., Sept. 16. —Hearing of the habeas corpus proceedings was resumed in District Court here today in the case of the “mystery boy,“ claimed as their child by both E. 8.

Mrs. Delo, who claims the child was kidnaped from her home in Canada in 1911, came here about a month ago and obtamed pos- session of him. As she was about to de- part, Carrell instituted the ‘present pro- ceedings. The boy, who is about 8 years old, was placed on the stand today.

Since the war began nearly 3,000,000 men, he said, had enlisted in the army and navy. Besides, 800,000 persons were nitlong. But both figures would have to be inereased änd he appealed to the women to give ‘their assistance, believ- jing that they would make a gigantic stride towards the solution of one of f their most pressing problems. Asquith candidly admitted that mis- takes had been made and added: J do not say even now that we are doing all we might or even all we ought to do. Lad * protested, however against the attempts of a section of the press: to belittle and disparage our efforts.“ After reviewing the operations in Flanders, the Dardanelles, and Poland, vastly exceeded any standard dreamed of before the war. Ag the wär went on, however, that standard would rise and new sacrifices would be demanded in men, munitions and money. A discussion on the question of con- scription followed the Premier's speech, and the House finally granted the vote asked for. Darl Kitchéner, in his speéch, made the interesting disclosure that the Ger- man attacks with gas, liquid fire and asphyxiating shells, lacking, as they now do, the element of surprise, have failed in ther object and have lost much of their offensive value, owing to the steps taken to counteract them. Veil of Secrecy Lifted. Lifting the veil of secrecy, he an- mounced that 11 divisions (more than 200,000 men) of the new army had re- inforced Field Marshal French’s force in France, and said others: would fol- low quickly. He spoke optimistically of the situation on the various fronts, ex- pressing the opinion that ‘‘the Germans have shot their boit’’ in their offensive against Russia without achieving their object of destroying the Russian army. As far as the Turks were concerned, there was an abundance’ of evidence of the process of demoralization having set in.“ In Mesopotamia. the resistance of the Turks had terminated. Without referring directly to conscrip- tion, the War Minister said provision to keep up the strength of the army in 1916 was causing anxious thought, owing to the falling off recently in the number of recruits offering themselves tial inquiry as to the best means of keeping the armies up to their full strength. Gallipoli Peninsula. “On the Gallipoli Peninsula, during operations in June,“ said the Secretary, “several Turkish trenches were cap- tured and our own lines appreciably ad- vanced and our positions concentrated “Considerable reinforcements having arrived, a surprise landing on a large scale at Suvla Bay was successfully ac- complished on Aug. 6 without any seri- ous opposition. “At the same time an attack was launched by the Australian and New Zealand corps from the Anzac position and a strong offénsive was delivered from Cape Helles, in the direction of Krithia. In this latter action French trocps played a prominént part and showed to high advantage their usual gallantry and fine fighting qualities. “The attack from Anzaé, after a series of hotly contested actions, was carried to the summit of Sari Baier and Chunuk Bair, dominating positiéns in this area.

The result was that the troops from Anzac were ,unable to retain their po- sition on the’ crest of the hills and, after being. repeatedly counter-attacked, they were ‘ordered to withdraw to posi- tions lower down.

NEW YORK, Sept. 16.—Statements by a ship's physician who attended Mrs Frank Leslie on her last voyage to Europe a few months before her death, on Sept. 18, 1914, are expected to be im- portant evidence in the suit to break the will in which Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, suffrage leader, was bequeathed approximately $1,700,000. whe disposition of Dr. John Russell Kelley was taken in the suit of Mra. Annie P. Frye against William Nelson Cromwell and Louis H. Cramer, execu- tors of Mrs. Lesiie’s estate, asking for $25,000 for services rendered during the last two years of Mrs. Leslie's life. Dr. Kelley’s deposition indicates that during the voyage from New York to Boulogne Mrs. Leslie was undergoing rapid men- tal deterioration. Mrs. Frye is at her home, near Red Bank, N. J., at the point of death, hav- jing suffered a paralytic shock the day after Mrs. Leslie died in her apartment at the Sherman Square Hotel. Up to the time of bringing the suit Mrs. Frye endeavored to arrange a settlement of her claim. According to counsel for both sides, this has not been made, be- cause of Mrs. Catt's opposition. Immediately after signing her last will, Mrs. Leslie, through the advice of her. physician, engaged passage on the Rotterdam, sailing May 2, 1914, in- tending to pass several months abroad. Contrary to her custom of engaging luxurious cabins on the upper deck, she took a small room on C deck. This cabin was just above the waterline, and so close to it that the portholes could not be. opened for air except in very calm weather, and then only employes of the ship were allowed to open them. For $60 more she could have had a cabin on the deck above, with ample ventila- tion. The Rotterdam had barely passed quarantine when a stewardess called Dr. Kelley to Mrs. Leslie’s room. In his deposttion, the ship’s doctor says: “Mrs. Leslie was very ill when sho came on board. During the entire voy- age Mrs. Frey was her only attendant except when I was present. I was valled to attend Mrs. Leslie from ten te twenty times in the course of 24 hours. Mrs. Leslie was paralyzed on the left .de and she was mentally deteriorated. She walked with difficulty with the aid of a cane and dragged her left leg. Her manner was very changeable. At times she was very abusive and foul mouthed. Ehe was also profane. I never saw any tune when there was any reason for Mro Leslie to be abusive to Mrs. Frey or myself. “Mrs. Leslie showed evidences of loco- motor ataxia. This was shown by the jerk of the leg from the knee and the step ot the heel and toe to the ground. This was aside from the dragging mo- tion of the leg due to the paralysis.”’ Fast colér 10e 5 line. in ali 3 lengths for — 40 W an “$50,000 DAHMER STOCK : They are values we dafy you to equal, at price concessions that mean tremendots savings to you.

While crossing the street at Grand avenue and Market streets in the afternoon, Ralph Smith, 8 years old, 2662 Clark avenue, ran into the side of a brewery truck driven by Philip Scher- man of 3208 Halliday avenue. His chin was cut, but he was not otherwise in- jured. Albert Sternberg, 54 years old, a land- scape gardener of 334 Gravois avenue, was seriously hurt when his automobile was struck by a Grand car at Grand and Osage streets, in the afternoon. He is at St. Anthony’s Hospital. His leg and three ribs were fractured. Leo Thomure of 4021 California.avenue, the motorman, was arrested. Leong Man, a Chinese, 6 years old, of 3676 Olive street, was crossing the street in front of 585 Theresa avenue in the afternoon when he was knocked down by the automobile of Richard Bouillion, 1570 Walnut street.

Those killed yesterday were Clarence Howard. 16 years old, of 5812 Ridge ave- nue, and Michael Mokler of 37% Pine street. Howard was run down by an automobile while riding a bicycle on Goodfellow avenue near Bartmer .ave- nue. Mokler was fatally injured by an automobile as he was walking across Fourth street in front of the Planters Hotel. Esther Schaefering, 9 years old, of 4124 Hull piece, was killed by an auto- mobile at Lee and Warne avenues Tuesday afternoon. Police records show that since Sept. 1 there have been 183 gutomobile acci- dents, in which six persons -were killed and 97 were injured. The Coroner’s last report, made Jan. 1 for the preceding year, shows that # persons in St. Louis met their deaths in 1914 in automobile casualties. „Coro- ner's juries found that 2% of these were the results of accidents and five of ‘criminal : cardlessness.” Since Jan. 1. this year, 29 persons have been killed in automobile accidents.

Drivers Urged to Use Care. Chief Young, in his warning today, ad- vised that drivers exercise care, not only in running their machines, but in keep- ing a close watch on other automobil ists to prevent the carelessness of others from getting them into trouble. “A frequent excuse for accident is: 1 didn’t know he was going to turn out.“ A driver should watch all the machines approaching him or in the road ahead of him and be ready to act quickly in case somebody else makes a mistake,“ said the Chief. Drivers also should keep a sharp lookout for pedestrians and bicyclists. and be ready to stop | quickly to avoid injuring them. “Owners of machines should not per- mit their minor children to run them. This is a source of many accidents. Care also should be exercised in hiring chauffeurs and only trustworthy and sober men should be employed. Pedestrians have it in their power to lessen the number of accidents. They should never cross a street in the middie of a block and they should not make diagonal crossings at corners. Before a pedestrian starts across a street he should look in both directions to see whether an automobile is ap- proaching, and in crossing behind one machine he should be certain that oné is not coming in the other direction. Great Volume of Traffic. 1 belleve the warm weather is fe- aponsible for many of the recent acci- dents. Everyone who has a machine is on the streets and naturally this in- creases the possibility of collisions and injury to pedestrians. Caution on the part of drivers and pedestrians is more necéssary now than ever, because of the great increase in the volume of traffic. An automobile owned by W. H. Dan- forth of 17 Kingsbury place and driven by Urban Turnquest, a negro chauffeur |} of 4422 Lucky street, ran down Clarence Howard. The police report said the boy } Wes riding south on the east side of the ‘street. This is*forbidden by the traffic ordinance. The chauffeur put the boy in the ma- chine and took him to the city hos- pital where he died at 10:20 p. m He “was a son of George Howard, à con- tractor, and was employed as delivery | Bor for a grocery. Turnquest was: ar- rested and released on a common-law bond approved by Judge Clark. Man's Skull Fractured, Mokler was knocked down by an aute- mobile driven by John Fitzgerald of era Cote Brilliante avenue. s skull was fractured. He died at the city hos- pital at 6:35 p. m. According to the ' gerald was driving side of the street, in violation of the |) traffic law.

Yet such had happened. Caught in France on the out- break of the war, while on his way home after a year’s tour on his wealthy tather’s money, he had simply gone to bee the fun. He thought it would be a matter of a month or two. So did many then. ä The mail from home had been first ar and pleading, then resigned.

Instantly the letter was thrust into his pooket and forgotten. He moistened his lips; he felt a strange exultation, mixed with— not exactly fear, but something that rade his flesh insensitive and his hands clammy. — Men Dropped by Scores HE artillery had opened a deafert- E ing attack. The shells, whistling everhead without cessation, filled the air with sound. Lines of smoke rose from the German trenches. It seemed as if the whole face of the earth was being blown away. “Now, boys!“ came down the line. Aimmy waited. The whistle sounded, and ir.stantly he was upon his feet and running like mad against the enemy. A line. of men, extending as far as the eye could reach, hurled themselves upon the devastated rifle pits. At first, while their own shells continued to shriel: over them, they seemed unop- posed. Then, when they were within a te moments Prudence came running hundred yards, the shelling ceased. Instantly an inferno of fire was opened upon the advancing legion. Men dropped by scores. To take the hostile lines was futile. The high shell explosives had tailed to shake the morale of the Ger- man forces, though it had knocked their intronchments about their ears. They would not retreat—it is not the iradition of the Foreign Legion to retire. But. riddled and confused, the whole line doubled upon itself and dissolved into little groups and clusters. It edged side- wise Along the German front and sought the shelter of one or two undamaged houses that had escaped the hostile ar- tllery. From among these a hundred Germans leaped forward to meet the approaching legionaries: A hand-to-hand fight fol- lowed. Jimmy found himself engaged with a huge fellow; wearing a tattered helmet, whose spike emerged through its khaki covering. The fellow disap- peared suddenly, and he found himself jabbing viciously at the air. Round and Round, They Went UDDENLY a shot was fired at him S from an old barn. It grazed his cheek, and Jimmy rushed into the barn, It was half full of moldy hay. A Ger- ran was upon the other side of the central mass. Round and round they hay they dodged, Jimmy after the Ger- man, then the German after Jimmy, each trying to get a point of vantage from which to shoot down the other. Panting, exhausted, they halted, one on either side of the haystack. Jimmy waited Presentlyy he saw the rifle bar- rel of the German begin to protrude Mrough a loose part of the stack. Quiet- ly ho dodged, and the discharge of the powder: blackened his tunic as the bullet sped across the barn and buried itself in the opposite wall. With a yell the German sprang round the stack. Jimmy was waiting for that. He let his clubbed rifle fall. The Ger- man started back, but it struck him on the foot and he howled with pain as he retired into the obscurity of the other side of the hay. They waited, Night was already fall- ing, the sounds of the fighting became less audible. It was quite dark inside the barn. Jimmy listened as a cat listens for a mouse. Suddenly the Ger- man called from behind the hay: Kamerad! Pardon! Surrender to me and you shall not be harmed. You see, my friend, we shall wait here all night unless you surrender.“ That's all very well,“ answered Jim- my, but suppose you surrender to me.“ We are not allowed to surrender,” answered the German plaintively. Ton had better surrender. Think it over! I will wait 10 minutes.“ Jimmy could see the tip of the Ger- man’s bayonet. It was moving, not up and down, but backward and forward in a manner which seemed somehow famillar to Jimmy. The movements were unconscious and it was evident that the fellow was laboring under strong emotion. He spoke again. ‘‘Suppose we both come out into the open,“ he said. 1 shall count a hundred. While 1 am counting you will turn your back and walk away. When I have finished counting a hundred I will call and we will both fire.“ “Nothing doing,“ said Jimmy. The Delicatessen Man HE German uttered an oath and ft leaped from behind the haystack. Jimmy was just in time to parry the leveled blade. He struck it up and drew back for a lunge. Then he looked into his opponent's face, and the recognition was mutual. “Katz! The delicatessen man!” cried. * ‘Jimmy Penderby!“ cried Katz. “wosh! What are you doing here, Mr. Penderby,?” “Oh, just looking around,” said Jim- my. “Say, I knew it was you, Kats, from the way you used that bayonet. Are you going to surrender?” “I daren’t,” said Katz. “My wife said I must bring back an iron cross.” “Your wife is crazy because you've inherited $10,000," said Jimmy, and“ ‘What?’ yelled Katz. “lt must be I never thought he'd last out the year. Mr. Penderby, take me to your camp, and hurry! Hur- ry, and don't let any of those shells hit me before I see the. color of it.” Safe in the camp of the legionaries, Kats recovered from his animation. “Mr. Penderby,“ he implored, “you 4idn’t tell me how you knew it was me behind the hay. By my bayonet, you know.” “Oh, ves, sald Jimmy. I suppose a man gets the tricks of his trade, Kats. You see, a bayonet fsn’t for us- ing lke a ham slicing machine.” (Copyright by W. G.

Prudence and her widowed mother lived in a small cottage on the out- skirts of Philadelphia in the days of the Revolutionary war. They were Quakers, who did not believe in fight- ing, but Httle Prudence was heart and soul with the American cause. In a . 2 Runen back. “Mother, it is the British—they are coming up the path,” said the girl, ex- citedly. Up the shadowy road came & troop of Redcoats. They clattered up and stopped before the low white porch. Mrs. Adams came to the door. “We are British dragoons,’ said the commanding officer, with a bow. And we will make our headquarters here tonight.“ In a few seconds the troop- ers were dismounted and swarming into the house. Prudence and her mother knew there was nothing to do but wait on the men, so they cooked a big supper and spread the table with cold meat, bread, preserves and milk in plenty. Then Prudence went into the room to wait on the officers’ table. It was very chilly, and the big room looked very cozy with the firelight dan- cing on the ceiling and the men in red coats sitting about the table smoking. So Prue sat down back in the dark corner of the chimney, and waited for the guests to finish. The men laughed and talked so long that the child fell asleep, but so far back in the shadows was she that no one knew of her pres- ence. RESENTLY loud voices awoke her. — She did not stir, but kept per- fectly still and listened, for the officers were telling of their plans to attack Washington, who was encamped not far off. Some of the officers were getting angry and their tones were noisy. But at last quiet was restored and a plan agreed upon, which was that at ¢ dawn the British forces a to —. INDOOR LIFE MAKES FAT eee ee eee ote TAKE OIL OF KOREIN TO KEEP WEIGHT DOWN, OR TO REDUCE SUPERFLUOUS FAT. People who are confined within doors and who are deprived of fresh, invigor- ating air and exercise must take pre- caution to guard against over-stoutness, as fat acquired by indoor life is un- healthy and a danger to the vital organs of the body. Lack of exercise in the fresh air weakens the oxygen-carrying power of the blood. so that it is unable to produce strong muscles and vitality, and the formation of unsightly and un- healthy fat is the result. If you are 16 or 20 pounds above nor- mal weight you are daily drawing on your reserve strength and are constantly lowering your vitality by carrying this excess burden. Any person who is satis- fied in their own mind that they are too stout should go to a Fool druggist and get a box of ofl of koerin capsules and take one after each meal and one just before retiring at night. Even a few days’ treatment should show a noticeable reduction in weight, digestion should improve, energy return. footsteps become lighter and the skin less flabby in appearance. il of korein is inexpensive, cannot in- jure, helps the digesvion and is designed 2 a perenne the oxygen-carrying power 0 Any person who wants to reduce 1 5 weight 15 or 20 * shou surround the American take them by surprise. The party broke up and went off to bed. But Prue was too much troubled was back in the corner and heard the plot to attack the Revolutionary forces at dawn. I mean to warn Gen. Wash- ington.”’ Prue raced to the stable and saddled a colt which she had raised. Starlight was fleet of foot, and as soon as the girl was on his back, set out down the road at a swift run. Past fields of corn and through the forest she sped, over the Mreams and down the long sweep of the meadows. The moon struggled through a oloudy sky, the night wind sang in her ears, the shadows danced along as the horse and rider swept over nill and dale. Then the chill made her cold as the colt raced onward. But presently she saw lights glimmering in the distance, and as the horse slackened its pace, a soldier in the uniform of the American army stepped out of the bushes and laid his hand on her reins. “I must see Gen. Washington at once!“ Prue parted. “It is a matter of lite and death!“ —— to go to sleep. “mother!” she sald, I sentry led her to the General's tent. There she told him of what she had heard. Washington sent for his officers, acquainted them with the news and told them to have the army n readiness to meet the enemy at dawn. The bugles sang out the call to arms and the men sprang to their guns. All the soldier® were prepared to moet the attack. Washington returned to his tent and found the little maid had curled upon a cot and was sound asleep. “I will not disturb her,” he said, as he went into another tent to await the dawn. As soon as the light began to break there came the sound of marching men, and out of the bushes broke the ranks ot the Redooats. But they were met by the fire of the Americans. Sur- prised to find their foe on the watch, „be British fied in disorder, leaving the Nevolutionary troops in possession of the field. The firing awoke Prue. But when Washington came into the tent and told her the enemy had been routed, and that the victory was due to her warn- ing, she felt very happy. “Here is a little keepsake by which you can remember how you saved the American army,“ said the General, plac- ing in her hands a small miniature of bimegelf in a golden frame. Then after breakfast he sent Prue home with a tine escort of soldiers. The miniature the girl kept, and it has been preserved in her family till at this very day one can see it hanging on the wall of a eertain old home in Philadelphia.

CONTRIBUTIONS. age ~ agua acknowledged ... Persistence of the high temperature that set mM some three weeks ago, along with probability of its lingering for four or five weeks longer, creates something of a problem for the Post- Dispatch rure Milk and Free Ice League, the army of children, and a comparatively few oldcr people, whose | self-imposed task it is to save the in- fants of the congested districts of St. Louis. Coming so late in the season, the hot spell, with its enfeebling ef- fects upon the babies, is proving high- ly aggravating in its peril, and to meet the situation the St. Louis Pure Milk commission and the Free Ice and Diet Circle of King’s Daughters are extend- ing their energies and facilities to the utmost to counteract the blighting in- fluences. It means greatly enlarged re- quirements of milk and ice, both of which cost money. There have been in each of the 11 years of the League's existence an effort to curtail infant mortality in St. Louis, scores of grown people who have contributed directly to the relief fund. Hundreds have, of course, aided the great cause through assisting the girls and boys, but it is largely due to the latter element of the city’s population that the campaigns have from the out- set proven highly successful. Campaign Must Be Continued. The present season is no exception. A grand result has been achieved, but the problem referred to is how that result can be continued to the end of the heated term, late in development and likely to be prolonged beyond the usual The Fund is between $800 and $900 short of last year, with the children constituting the supporting army com- pelled to forego the endeavor. easily possible during the vacation period. At best they can devote but a short while to building up the campaign resources, chiefly on Saturdays. The main hope. therefore, for securing the well-being of the distressed babies is that the girls and boys will make the most of this small opportunity and that the wom- en and men of the community will make the Reserve Corps the powerful force that it should be. One way that offers to this end, both to children and grown people, is at- tendance upon the Hoberson travelogues at the Odeon each evening this week and for the two weeks following. The Pure Milx and Ice Fund is a beneficiary of this attraction, which is highly in- structive as well as entertaining, and the return to the eye and mind. Further Benefits Arranged. That the children are resolved to do their utmost to swell the Fund to ade- quate proportions, in order that the mission to which they have set them- selver. may be fully performed, is evi- dent in the renewed effort many of them are making for further benefit af- faire for the days on which they are free from school responsibilities. A de- termined effort on the part of these youthful philanthropists will accomplish the purpose handsomely and in short orde: . especially if reinforced by the generosity of the older ranks of the public Promptness in response will but be characteristic of St. Louis. Little Misses Rosalind Weil of 6117 Waterman avenue and Helen Ruth Weil of 5057 Waterman, came to the relief of the needy babies with a contribution of $1, made from their personal funds, and the Fast Sewers’ Circle, of which Mrs. M. Goldman is president, voted a donation of $% from its treasury for the same appealing cause.

Therefore he will point our team for the earlier battles and it’s my hunch that we have a better chance this year than ever before.“ It’s Almost Man's Size. Edmunds’ confidence is inspired chief - ly by the fact that he has the heaviest squad Washington has put on the field in five years.

By Associated Press PARIS, Sept. 16. Fightipg continual- ly in Africa since last September, along a front of more than 2000 miles, the French colonial troops, aided by the} British allies, have obtaineg remarkable results,“ said Gaston Doumergue, Min- ister of the Colonies, to the Assécfated Press yesterday. “German East Africa,“ the Minister continued, “‘will soon be the only colony possessed by Germany, with the excep- don ot a small part of he Kameruns. The other“ German pessesslons are oc- eunted either by the French or English or cojointly. When one considers the difficulties of transportation in the interior of the Kameruns, not only of food but of mu- nitions and cannon of our expeditionary columfs, our success appears to be still more evident and meritorious. . A number of French columns march- ing from east to west and from south to north already have covered more than »» 400 kilometers (about 373 miles) and. „ fighting continuously, have established junctions and thus surrounded the ene- my on three sides, while Anglo-French > columns are operating from the coast , 2 ae 1 toward the interior and a blockade of Ate ‘coast has been effected by British : nns fighting in the colonies bears a Sreat resemblance to that on the west- ae front. Trenches, barbed wire entan- " glements and blockhouse observation posts had been cleverly disposed and utilized by the Germans, shown here, as elsewhere, the greatest 5 “preparations for war.

It was brought upon boats along about 1000 (621 mires) of winding water- ways to the outskirts of the city. The effect of the projectiles was so torrify- Ing. that, after a short bombardment, the population and garrison of Garu 5 8 permission to surrender. “The climate and the naturc of the round Opposed great difficulties to the march of our troops, but, fortunately, they were overcome.

Doumergue skid: “I hope that we will be able to add 5 more colonia] troops to the force of Senegalese riflemen who are on firing line, whether in France, Mo- ; Africa. It is, indeed, wonderful to see he way in which the natives have re- to the mother country’s. call and their absolute devotion to the great cause.

The downward drift tame shortly after the opening on the St. Louis Merchants’ Exchange, and dur- ing that period traders kept off to a degree that gave the pit a holiday air. Towards noon a better feeling devel- oped at all the centers and values stiffened accordingly. Most of tho early selling was of the December con- tract and was led by an operator of the larger caliber, who, at the same time, was a buyer of the current option. Re- a from Chicago to the St. Louis of- ice of Finley Barrell & Co. stated that some of the buying of wheat there was attributed to foreign account, but it was not fully credited as such. September on the be market was lifted 2%c to $1.08, but even at this level the volume of business in it was not large. Corn was the medium of somewhat more extensive trading than for several days, interest in it developing late and on buying power, the result being firm- ness to moderately higher prices. The speculative oats market contin- ued quiet. Early Tone Bearish. There was no mistaking the presence of a positive bearish tone in wheat early, even though it did not carry generally the courage of its con- viction. The volume of early trading was about as small as on any day with in several weeks past, and it was far from impressive at any of the centers During the first few minutes commis- sion houses were executing orders on a moderate scale on both sides, but it was not long before evidence that short selling was the dominant order, with buying at a minimum and there was consequent lull in operations. Subsc- quently the offers also dwindled and the market steadied, with the declines abou: recovered. Minneapolis market ruled comparatively strong. The frost fear that for days has been uppermost in the minds of corn inter- ests and affecting the speculative trade in that grain was again lacking, and uttention centered upon the prospects for further rain over the northern sec tion of the belt. Advices from that re gion were to the effect that the corn crop was still in a stage to require im- munity from frost for about three weeks, and on this line of infurmation there was some buying, but the trading as a whole was narrow and mixed. Wheat arrivals at St. Louls totaled 103,200 du., corn 42,000 bu, and oats 30,600 du. Hay receipts were 675 tons. Heceipts of wheat at Minneapolis were 596 cars, against 606 last year two years ago. Duluth re- cars, against 560 last poe receipts were 446 cars, against 25 last year and 1269 two years ago. Minneapolis stocks of wheat in- creased 415,000 bu in — days. Flour Output Larger. The North western Miller reported that the one output last week in- ee! 4.785 barrels, the total being 370,780 barrels, against 370,805 last year. This week's production is expected to be around 400,000. oomhall cables from Liverpool that Winnipeg and American ease pressure on that mar- ed — ee that this wee quickly followe by steadiness on lighter of- 1 Spot market firm, unchanged, 2 80 th cargo market generally steady; winte ad lower early and later ad- Ni anito * bern So yop d to 1%d igher; Fee henge and In- ages $d higher, with offerings light.
