POLICE T0 BE WITHOUT SABERS IN VEILED PROPHET PARADE Too Warlike, It Is Considered, and Advance Guard Will Carry 30-Inch Hickory Batons Instead. When the Veiled Prophet parades through the streets of St. Louis the night of Oct. 5, the crowds of loyal subjects skirting the route will not have to dodge sabers in the hands of the cavalry branch of the police department, which they have been wont to dodge in past pageants. There will not be any sabers to dodge. ; The Police Department, falling in line with the peace movement sweep- ‘ng over the country, has concluded that sabers are not police weapons, but war implements, and has deter- mined to abolish them. The policemen will carry 30-inch batons of hickory attached to their saddles by means of a leather hoop. The batons have been ordered and will probably make their first public appearance the night of the big pa- rade when the mounted police ride in front of the procession. GERMAN BARON IS INTERNED, NATURALIZED BRITON LONDON, Sept. 20.— Baron von Bissing. half brother of Gen. von Bissing, Ger- man Military Governor of Belgium, and u naturalized British subject, after fight- ing for months for his liberty, has been interned. He was mysteriously spirited away today from his luxurious home in Kensington by detectives. It is reported that the Islington work- house will be the Baron’s domicile for the remainder of the war. | SHOOTS 10 FRIGHTEN GUESTS Woman Says Husband’s Friends, Had Coaxed Him Away From Home. Mrs. Minnie Biair of 870 Hodiamont avenue fired a shot from a window of her hqme at 8:30 o’clock last night and when policemen called to investigate she told them she had shot to frighten some guests who had coaxed her hus- band, Frank Blair, away from home. She said that her husband had been spending so much of his time with these persons that they had become objection- able to her. They ran in one directi when she fired, she said, and her hi Land took an opposite route. SON A WITNESS FOR MRS. HAYS AGAINST HAYS AND ORGAN She Planned to Have Child Cor- roborate Her Story of, Frame-Up“ in Hotel. MEN GET CONTINUANCES Steel Man’s Wife Tells of Cir- cumstances That Caused Her to Go to Man's Room. The cases against William T. Hays, general manager of the Scullin-Gal- lagher Iron and Steel Co., and Philip J. Organ of 390A Westminster place, charged with disturbing the peace of Hays’ wife, Mrs. Nella S. Hays, by an alleged frame-up' to trap her in a room at the Planters Hotel with Organ, were continued in police court by Judge Hogan today at the request of attor- neys. Mrs. Hays, occompanied by her moth- er, Mrs. Mary Sower, and a neighbor, Mrs. M. M. Bland, and her son by a former marriage, Jewell Rice Jr., went early to the Municipal Courts Bulild- ing and stood in the corridor until word was brought to her that the cases had been, continued. Hays and Organ were in court only a few minutes while the continuance was being ar- ranged. Son as Her Witness. Mrs. Hays intended to have her son take the witness stand and corroborate her statement that she acted openly and in good faith in going to the Planters to meet Organ, in the supposition that he was J. L. Hopper, a friend of Hays, as she said he had represented himself to be. The boy says his mother told him she was going to the Planters to see Hopper. Mrs. Bland was ready.to testi- fy that Mrs. Hays had told her the same thing. 7 Organ, calling himself Hopper, had told her, she says, that her husband wanted to meet her and talk over their difficulties, and she went to the hotel in the expectation of meeting Hays. Mrs. Hays spoke freely today of the circumstances which led up to a scene at the hotel last night and the arrest of and Organ.

She nad teen > soa per, her husband’s friend, she said; he had looked after her son in Chicago on his way home from school, and she did not doubt that it was Hopper who was talking to her. Friday, at the man’s suggestion, she said, she met him downtown. They had supper at a cafe and he took her to her home in Webster Groves in a taxi and, as he seemed reluctant to leave, she declared, she invited him in, and they talked about the Hays family troubles for a while. Husband Telephoned Her. Saturday night, Mrs. Hays safd, her husband telephoned from Sunset Inn expressed contrition for what had oc- curred and a desire for a reconciliation and asked her to come to the inn. She refused, but told him to call and see her. Yesterday, afternoon “H-upper”’ tele- rhoned to Mrs. Hays, she said, and asked her to meet him and Hays at the Planters. Mrs. Hays said Hopper had told her that his wife was with him at the hotel.

THOUSANDS ON STREETS Aeroplanes and Anti-Craft Guns Fired Incessantly — Believed to Have Hit Invaders. NEW YORK, Sept. 20.—A handful of persons, from the millions who saw the first Zeppelin raid over the heart of London, on the night of Sept. 8, reached New York today aboard the steamship Orduna with thrilling stories of the fight in the sky between the invaders and British aircraft, and other details of the damage inflicted which had hitherto been suppressed by the British censor. There were said to be three Zeppelins in the fleet, although those who told the story today had seen only one. They circled’ over the theater and hotel dis- trict of London, dropping explosive and incendiary bombs. One of the latter, it was said, destroyed by fire an entire block of warehouses within five min- utes’ walk of St. Paul’s Cathedral: An explosive bomb ripped through a six- story tenement in the center of the city, shattering the building from top to bot- tom and killing a dozen or more men, women and children as they slept. Hospitals Damaged. Several bombs, according to the eye witnesses, fell near three hospitals in a cluster, the central one of which was the Opthalmic hospital, full of “wounded soldiers. All buildings were rocked to their foundations and not a pane of glass was left intact. The patients had to be moved into the street, where they lay for hours on their cots while the damage was repaired. Pieced together from accounts given by the Orduna’s passengers, the story of the air raid was as follows: The raid occurred between 10:45 and 11:15 o’clock on the night of Sept. 8, a raid the previous night reached the east- ern section of the city, but not the heart. Persons asleep in the Metropole, the Victoria and other hotels in the center of the city were awakened by the inces- ‘sant wntrr or deroplane engines as the British air fleet took wing to repel the invaders. Just as the Zeppelins ap- peared over the Strand, most of the theaters were pouring their crowds into the street. Fight for Taxicabs. There, according to some passengers, u panie impended when the first word of the approaching air craft was passed in whispers. The lights were turned off and men and women in evening clothes fought for taxicabs and other vehicles to take them home. Other passengers said there was no panic, but that a great wave of fear seemed to engulf this section of the darkened city before the an-craft guns began to pop away. Suddenly, from every section of Lon- don, the sky was swept by long white beams from scores of searchlights. The tops of these beams were not long in resting upon what they sought. When the Zeppelin was found, a dozen or more searchlights focused their rays upon it, stretching back to scattered points in the city like the long white ribs of a fancy fan. Two searchlights finally centered on a Zeppelin while the others continued to search the sky for more aircraft. Al ready the*air was dotted with aero- planes which could be seen frequently as they crossed the searehlight beam circling upward. Roar of Guns From City. The roar*of the guns from the city Was punctuated at intervals by the ex- ‘plosions of bombs which fell in New- gate street, not far from St. Paul's Ca- thedral in Holborn, in Cheapside, in Bloomfield street, not far from the Liv- erpool Street Station and near the wa- ter front of the Thames River in that section of the city in which St. Paul's is located. “The Zeppelins seemed to float lazily above us, said Miss A. S. Tatham ef Sydney, Australia, who was staying at the Victoria Hotel, near Charing Cross. It reminded me of nothing so much as There was hardly a space of five seconds during the 10 minutes or more that the searchlight beams rested on the raider, eyewitnesses said, that the sky was not lightened by flashes of exploding shells. As the noise of cannonading grew louder those who had fled at first to cellars gained cour- age and came out into the streets. They were in almost every stage of undress and thousands of men, women and children walked the streets, or stood in groups, gazing upward, dressed only in their night clothes. Light Skies Like Meteors. “The bursting shells, lighting the sky like meteors, shattered into sud- den fire all around the Zeppelin. The spits of flame seemed to be finding their target. Meantime, the Zeppelin maneuvered over the Holborn section of London, circling at least twice. These maneuvers ended when a shell huurst almost directly under the air- craft's bow. „ swerve, a sudden dip and the searchligtits lost the Zeppelin. They were on her a moment afterward, and it was seen that she appeared to be going down by the head. For a few seconds she hovered as if uncer- tain what to do then rightetd herself, pointed her nose slightly upward and ascending so rapidly that within a minute or two the searchlights could | CRONE TO PLEAD * GUILTY AND ASK FOR A PAROLE His Lawyer So Announces After Change of Venue to Grimm's Court Is Obtained. REALTY, MAN IN COURT Plea for Mercy to Be Based on Understanding That Friends Will Make Restitution. Charles Christian Crone, the Nofth Broadway real estate dealer, whose de- falcations to clients are believed to to- tal nearly $50,000, will plead guilty to four charges of first-degree forgery and ask for a parole, according to an en- nouncement this morning’ by his attor- ney, Campbell Cummings. The announcement was made after Circuit Judge Cave, before Crones cases were set for trial today, had granted a change of venue to Di- vision No. 12, presided over by Judge Grimm. It was contained in a written statement Cummings gave to reporters. ‘The case is set for hearing by Judge Grimm, Sept. 29. Circuit Attornéy Harvey immediately declared he would resist an application for a parole. He declared he would rec- ommend a minimum of 10 years’ impris- onment, as in the recent case of A. H. Frederick, in view of Crone’s ad- vanced age, but said he would recom- mend nothing less. He declined to com- ment further on Cummings’ statement. Court Sounded on Parole. Cummings previously had sounded Judge Cave on the question of a pa- role for Crone, explaining that he did so at the request of the latter’s friends, who had told him, he said, they were willing to make restitution to Crone’s victims, if thereby they would have him from the penitentiary. Judge Cave re- fused to consider it. Judge Grimm, when told of the change of venue to his court, refused to say what his attitude would be on a parole for Crone. He declared it would be im- proper for him to discuss the matter with any person until it came officially before him. Crone, looking much improved in health, accompanied his attorney to the court room and gat in q rear seat Harvey and Judge Cave held. a brief conference in the Judge's chambers. At its conclusion the Judge announced from the bench: : “In view of statements made in cham- bers by the attorney for Crone, these cases are transferred to Division No. * J have the highest respect and con- tidence in the impartiality as well as the legal ability of Judge Have, Cum- mings’ statement read. and I would not have taken this change of venue from him except for the fact that Mr. Crone’s health is such that the ordeal of a trial might bring on a second stroke of apoplexy, which might prove fatal, and, consequently, there being but one step left to me, namely to enter a plea of guilty and file an application for a rarole, my client’s interests as well as, I believe, the interests of society, de- mand that another Judge shall pass upon his parole. He Discusses Parole. “His parole. is one phase of his case, under the circumstances, that the trial Judge must pass upon, although Judge Cave is, I recognize acting from the highest motives of public good in stat- ing that he would not parole Mr. Crone, nevertheless, it seems to me, that his friends, wishing to make restitution and save him from death, are acting from an equally high motive. Perhaps another Judge will support Judge Cave in his position, but, if he does, I.can only express a keen regret that so many people, who have lost their savings for the protection of their old age, will be left destitute, and tnat they, as well as Mr. Crone’s life, will be sacrificed fcr an idea. “Consequently I shall enter a plea of guilty and file an application that Mr. Crone be puroled if his friends make restitution If paroled, he will be under the supervision of the Court for two years, and if his friends fail to make restitution, he enn be sent up at any time to the penitentiary. „ cannot help but believe, inasmuch as the question of Mr. Crone’s parole has been thrown into the court of public opinion, that if they, the people, spoke, those who wish his parole, under all the circumstances of his particajar case, would be in a vast majority. I also be- lieve, if it were possible to leave this question to a jury, that the jury would unanimously vote for it.“ Crone is 64 years old. He had offices at 3618 North Broadway and lived at 6226 Waterman avenue. After his arrest he moved to 4643 Berlin avenue. The minimum punishment for forgery in the first degree, of which he is accused on four counts, is 10 years in prison. Crone’s operations were exposed by the Post-Dispatch April 15, when the Frederick scandal was frésh in public interest. It was learned at that time that Crone had been compelled to make restitution of $25,000 to the estate of OWN A HOME. Biome @ whonr * — He Will Plead Guilty and Renew n — . 2 .

The Police Board has cited Detective Sergt. Timothy Danaher to show cause why he should not be dropped from the department for physical incapacity. Danaher has been a member of the Police Department for 32 years, with- out a black mark against his record. He is considered one of the most faith- ful and efficient men on the force. Tho charge against him, a copy of which was served on him this morning, staggered nim. He wept. Twenty years ago Danaher and Capt. Joseph Schoppe, then a detective, solved the mystery surrounding an explosion in Miller’s bakery at Fourth street and Clark avenue. It required a year of hard work for them to run down a band of anar- chists that was responsible for that crime. The detectives were compli- mented by the Board of Police Commis- sioners when they completed that work. Another arrest that Danaher was proud of was that of a burglar who had ransacked 40 residences on the South Side. . Mrs. Kate Castleman of 3693 Lindell boulevard, rewarded Danaher and others with $500 when they took into custody the Charles Vance gang of daylight burglars who had looted a number of West End homes, including that of Mrs. Castleman, a few years ago. q On June 24, 1910, Danaher was struck on the head by a scantling which fell from a building at Eleventh street and Franklin avenue. It had been loosened by wind and fell as Danaher was mak- ing a round of pawnshops in search of stolen property. He sustained a blood clot and later partial paralysis crippled his right side. He obtained a furlotgh of 60 days and when he returned to work he told his friends he felt greatly improved. His appearance did not in- dicate an improvement, his fellow workers say. Danaher lives with his wife and five children at 3632 Forest Park boule- vard. If he is dropped now he will get $1500 from the Police Relief As- sociation. If a member of the de- partment until the time of his death, his survivors would be entitled to $2000. “BIG THURSDAY” AT FAIR TO BE MUNICIPAL HOLIDAY GREEK LINERBURNS 469 PASSENGER ~ AND GREW SAVED The Athinai Destroyed When She Is 500 Miles East of New York.

Next day they went out to see what damage had been done.

They passed by recruiting stations which had been empty the day before. On this morning there Were long lines of men waiting outside, eager to join the army. Back of the Cathedral where there are many warehouses near the river front they came upon the first visible. effect of the raid. An entire city block was in ashes with only the smudged shells of buildings left standing.

In Broomfield street, two and one halt miles from Trafalgar Square, row of dwellings had been damaged as if by artillery fire. The damage extend- ed over an area of about three blocks. There was a cavity in the middle of the street, 30 feet in diameter and about eight feet deep. Guides in motor busses were carrying steady streams of sightseers to the va- rious points where the greatest damage iad been wrought. At one place, about minutes’ ride from the Victoria Ho- tel, a six-story tenement had been de- molished.

A negro who, the police say, is the “flashlight burglar’? who has entered a dozen homes in the West End in the last two weeks, was captured by two policemen at 4:30 o’clock this morning, while trying to break into the home of Dr. Robert Edward Wilson of 4250 Lin- dell boulevard. The negro carried a flashlight, which he used in getting into the houses, and which he flashed into the faces of sev- eral sleeping women in different, houses. The. women, awakened by the shaft of light. saw the burglar, and in some instances they screamed and frightened him away. Policemen Tunis and Kosche, who hai been watching for the burglar for sev- eral nights, saw him trying the windows on the north and east sides of Dr. Wil- s0n’s house. They concealed themselves until he raised a window, and removed his shoes and coat, and then captured him. He had the flashlight in his pocket. / The negro gave the name of James Crymes, and said he had come to St. Louis from Chicago two weeks ago. He said he lived at 3815 Dearborn street. Chieago, but had been visiting his broth- er at 538 Montrose avenue the last two weeks. The negro was chased out of several homes in the last two weeks.

Wallace Wallin, director of the psycho-educational clinic of the St. Louis public schools, is preparing his first annual report on the work of ed- ucating feeble-minded children. He told a Post-Dispatch repcrter to- day that this report would show a de- crease of nearly 26 per cent in the last year in the number of children listed as feeble-minded. The report will also tell of Dr. Wallin's plan to take charge of stammering children and cure them at an early age, and of other plans for ex- tension of the work of his department. Dr. Wallin said that, fhen he came to St. Louls a year ago to take charge of the psycho-educational clinic, 468 pupils were receiving instruction in special schools for the feeble-minded. Dr. Wal- lin has found that some of these chil- dren were not feeble-minded, but only backward and by a reclassifying he has reduced the number of pupils in special schools to 372.

This is partly accounted for because many boys need only disciplinary measures, and that girls are more prone to make harder efforts to retain their classes) Dr. Wallin found that of the total number examined by him, seven per -}eent proved normal: 12 per cent showed evidence of retarded intellect; 33 per cent were listed as backward and 11 per cent on the border-line between back- wardness anc the first state of feeble- mindedness in which the child is known as a moron.“ Of the moron class there were 15 per cent; 14 per cent were im- beciles and 1 per cent were idiots. Of the entire number, 20 per cent had speech defects. Of all the cases examined by Dr. Wal- lin, 9.5 per cent were excluded from the schools because of their extremely low mentality, and 5 per cent were sent back to their regular classes. Thirty-nine per cent were placed in the special schools, and 38 per cent sent to ungraded classas in their own schools. Thirty-seven pu- pils were recommended for the Missouri Colony for the Feeble-Minded and Epi- leptic at Marshall. In commenting on the larger percent- age of boys in the special schools, Dr. Wallin said the male sex runs more to extremes, that there are more geniuses and more idiots among men than among women. 3 Inspector Visits Home. When a child is sent to the clinic for examination, a school Inspector of Hy- giene makes a full report upon the pa- tient, suplemented by one from the school nurse, who has visited the home to see the surroundings in which the child is reared. Then the child is examined to ascer- tain the level of intelligence, as for instance, whether he or she is 12 years old, with the mind of a child of 7: the strength of mentality is taken, and then a physical examination is made to de- termine whether physical growth is nor- mal. The parent then is summoned. If the child is weak-minded the parent is told to safeguard it from the impositions of other children. Here is where Dr. Wal- lin has to use diplomacy, for no parent is proud of a feeble-minded child. Yet the said that in only five cases in St. Louis has he had trouble on this score. He goes on the principle that it is better to tell the truth outright than to deceive a parent. One mother flatly contradicted Dr. Wallin when he announced that her son was feeble-minded. She said it could not be possible, as she was strong-mind- ed, and his father was noted for his ability in oratory. She refused to have the boy placed in a special school, Dr. Wallin then sent for the father, and told him exactly how matters stood, and after a little reasoning the father accepted Dr. Wallin’s advice as to the boy’s treatment. Moves to Another Home. Recently a mother, whose child was sent to the clinic, moved to another home, so that she might be near a cer- tain special school. Then, when the boy was examined, it was found that he was only backward, and not feeble- minded at all, so he was placed in an ungraded class, and the mother moved back to her former home. In many cases there is weeping and wailing on the part of. the mother, and then Dr. Wallin has to wait until the tears have ceased. Dr. Wallin personally visits the homes of many of the children to ascertain what influences may have been brought to bear upon the child, and possibly stunted mental growth. In some cases he finds that conditions are discourag- ing, and in others that heredity has pla ved a part. WRONG VICKERS’ NAME PRINTED Nephew, Instead of Charies E.

TD PAY EXPENSES OF TRPS TO FAS Auditor Gordon and Son, Build- ing and Loan Supervisor, Turn in Bills for $404. By a Staff Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Sept. 20.—The old saying that “there are more ways death with butter“ has been borne out by State office holders in Jeffer- son City in getting around the rer fusal of the Legislature to appropriate $25,000 for State officials to visit the San Francisco Exposition. The special train de luxe on which Gov. Major planned to spend $25,000 of the State’s money, is not being used, but the State officials are see- ing the fair just the same, and in some instances the State is footing most of the bills. Gov. Major already has been there, but so far has not submitted an ex- pense account for the trip. Auditor Gordon has seen the fair and the State has paid a part of the bill. His son, Morris Gordon, Building and Loan Supervisor, has been there and the State has paid for his trip. Some other officials are now there. Governors Special Train Project. A short time before the last Legisla- ture adjourned Gov. Major conceived the idea of having a special train which would take him and his military staff and other State officials to the fair. He also had decided to take a band and a large amount of literature advertising the State. He called newspaper correspondents inte his office and explained the pro- posed trip in detail. He estimated the cost would be about $26,000. He care- fully explained that he would not ask the Legislature for the money and would not put himself in the position of urging it, but suggested that it would be a fine thing for the State t the newspapers would push it through. The correspondents didn’t fall for“ the Governor’s plan, but some way the matter reached the L2gislature. Mem- bers took the position that the $25,000 could be used for a better purpose, and refused to make the appropriation. Soon after the Legislature adjourned the Governor departed for the fair, ac- companied by several friends. The Gov- ernor has an appropriation covering traveling expenses, but so far this has not been drawn on to pay the bill. Bills of the Gordons. Auditor Gordon reached San Francisco by way of Salt Lake City, where a con- vention of State auditors was held in August. After the meeting the Auditor went on to the Exposition. He turned in an expense account covering 13 days and drew a warrant on the Treasury. The total was $201.21. It included $110.50 for hotel and meals and $10.50 for taxi- cab fares. Fortunately for Morris Gordon, the convention of building and lean super- visors was held in San Francisco, and he was able to take time between ses- sions to see the Fair. His expense ac- count was for $202.90, or $1.69 more than it cost his father to attend the cofiven- tion in Salt Lake City. His account cov- ered à period of 12 days. His bill for hotels and meals was $102.50 and for taxicabs and incidentals was $15. Walter Chorn, insurance superin- tendent, has departed for San Francisco, where a convention of insurance su- perintendents is being held. State Superintendent of Schools Gass attended the convention of the National Educational Association in Oakland, Cal., but has not submitted an expense account to the State. John H. Nolen, State Land Reclama- tion Commissioner, is in San Francisco attending a convention. —s — Ross-Gould Removed to 810 Olive St. Mailing lists, facsimile letters, addressing NEAR-SIGHTED MAN FATALLY INJURED BY M’KINLEY CAR Joseph FP.

Manufacturers Forced to Sign Guarantees to Sell Products to Nations Only Upon Approval of London — Boycott Applies Even Be- tween United States and South America Textile Alliance Dictates Terms to Users of Wool ‘By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. a “NEW YORK, Sept. 20.—The World this morning begins the presentation of facts, illuminated by documentary evidence, which reveal the efforts of the British Government to regulate and contro) trade between the United States and the rest of the world. Thbese activities are shown to have been far reaching, materially impor- tant and invariably successful. There is no information te justify the state- ‘ment that they have been actually illegal or secretive. Tue evidence upon which the world bases its portrayal of British under- takings shows that the British have succeeded in dictating to Americans engaged in various forms of industry the terms under which they are per- mitted to do business with the rest of the world, and that it resorted to the **hoyeott’’ and black list“ to enforce its demands. “These demands, as set forth in docu- What Wood said was, “Great Britain ying these articles, are,|can go to hell.” 2 The American Woolen Co. is a 000. 000 corporation.

In an effort to adjust the trade dif- ferences between American importers and persons with whom they had been in the habit of dealing in Mngiland, Great Britain sent over Sir Richard After two months of negotiations, how- ever, the undertaking was discontinued for the reason that Great Britain refused te recede from the conditions set up by the British Board of Trade. To handle the wool industry the Brit- ish Board of Trade selected as the American agent of the British Govern- ment the Textile Alliance, Inc., of this city, the main offices of which are No. i East Seventeenth street, with a branch at No. 12 Milk street, Boston. A. M. Patterson, formerly selling agent for the Waterloo Mills, was selected to head the alliance, and upon him has de- veloped the duty of seeing to it that the American manufacturers comply with the conditions stipulated by Great Britain. The Textile Alliance has be- come one of the most important insti- tutions in the United States. Member- ship in ft is a requisite to any im- porter or manufacturer in procuring weol from the British domains. Importers Pay Expenses, In addition the expenses of the Tex- tile Alliance are paid by the importers and not by th British Government. An application for British wool is direct and simple. The American importer foins the Textile Alliance. He is com- pelled to fill out an application to the Textile Alliance, Inc., making applica- tion for permission to import a stated amount of weol or wool products from a given British firm and guaranteeing in oonsideration for this “privilege” that he will not sell any wool to anyone without securing the written consent of the Alliance to such sale; that he will not export any wool or wool prod- ucts to any country except Great Brit- ain; that he will require any person to whom he sells any wool to furnish a similar guarantee. The alliance, if it approves the import- eri application, forwards it to Great Britain, where it eventually is passed upon by the proper British officials. And the American importer gets or doesn’t get his wool, as these officials see fit. There is a “purchaser's guar- antee."" This form of guarantee is made out by the would-be purchaser of wool or wool products and addressed to the Textile Alliance,- Inc. The intending purchaser asks the alliance’s permis- sion to buy a stated quantity of wool from a named American importer. In consideration of the ailliance’s permis- sion for this transaction, the purchaser solemnly pledges not to sell any of the wool thereby obtained nor any manu- facturea articies in which it has been used to anyone without first obtaining the written approval of the alliance, and second, a similar guarantee is re- quired of the would-be purchaser and also of the importer. The purchaser further agrees to fur- nish the alliance, upon request, at any time, with detailed statements of all woo! and wool »roducts purchased and sold by him; to execute and deliver a bond at any time if required to do so by the British Government to insure the fulfillment of the guarantee; not to export any of the wool or articles man- ufactured therewith to any nation save Great Britain; that the agreement is to remain in full force until Great Britain shall have signed peace treaties with all belligerent nations, and lastly, give a full release to A. M. Patterson indi- vidually and as an officer of the Textile Alliance from all lability. This guarantee is forwarded to the British “Consul. He sends it to the agent of the Alliance in the particular part of the British dominions having supervision over its wool products. The British agent submits it to the proper local Government official. It is optional with him whether he ap- proves or disapproves of the applica- tion. If he approves it the American applicant gets the wool. If he does not approve it the American appli- ant does not get the wool. The responsibility of the Textile Alliance to the British Government is set forth in a letter. The follow- ing is a copy: FEB. 10, 1916. Board of Trade, London, England. Gentlemen: On behalf of the Textile Alliance, Inc., we, the undersigned directors, in recognition of the trust imposed in us by ourselves and the Govern- ment of Great Britain, do pledge our- selves to the best of our power and ability to carry out the following Hance, or either the president of the alliance for the time being. 1.

The agreement with the British Gov- ernment has since been modified, the most important change being to make the guarantee cover the exportation of all rubber to any country save Great Britain. The financial agents of the British Government in this country through whick wool imports must be financed were named in the last circular issued by the Textile Alliance, Inc., as Messrs.

The same circular, dated June 21, 1915, named the ports through which Amer- ican shipments of woolen goods made in any form can enter and depart from this country. These are Boston, New York, Philadelphia and San Francisco. Having obtained absolute control over the manufacture of British wool in this country, the Textile Alliance, respond- ing to the influences of the British Government, extended its dictation to cover all wool and articles made there- from. This, of course, meant American wool was bought under the same condi- tions as foreign wool. In other words, the British Government took the posl- tion that no American manufacturer may send his goods, whether made from British or American wool, to any point except those permitted by the guaran- tee and under conditions applied to for- eign wool. The circular of the Textile Alliance sets forth this fact, and there is the testimony of a Philadelphia manufac- turer, S. & S. B. Fleisher of Philadel- phia, which is given herewith to prove it. Winthrop L. Marven, secretary and treasurer to the National Association of Wool Manufacturers, when seen at the offices of the association, 683 At- lantic avenue, Boston, the other day, said: , “When the Textile Alliance was or- ganized every wool manufacturer of the country was obliged to join it in order |= te get raw material. Members of the a TRY THIS IF HAIR STARTS FALLING At this season of the year many people find their hatr coming out at an alarming rate and often fear baldness. This may very easily be the ultimate result if proper scalp treatment is not taken at once. All excessive loss of hair can be almost immediately stopped by the use twice daily of a little Parisian Sage | = which invigorates and nourish the slowly dying hair roots into a re- newal of healthy normal action. New hair quickly grows on the thin spots, old hair stops falling and the dif- ference is apparent in a few days by the very look of the hair itself taking on new life, luster and beauty. Pari- sian Sage can de obtained from Wolff-Wilson Drug Co., or any good E. druggist. It is not expensive. PARISIAN FOR HAIR AND SCALP association were not particulari pleased, but they were at the — of the Alliance and Great Britain, and to get wool they had to abide by the conditions imposed by that Government. The subject of textile alliance and its methods is one which the manufac- turers will not willingly disouss, owing te their fear that the power of the British Government may he thrown against them and their supply of wool either curtailed or shut off entirely. Alliance Not Popular. “The Textile Alliance is not a pop- ular institution with American manu- facturers of woolens and worsteds. “Under the stipulations of the Tex- tile Alliance, which has the authority ef the British Government behind it, American manufacturers are de- barred from even shipping wool or its derivatives to South America. The Textile Alliance charges 1 per dent of the value of the wool it procures for its members for its services. “I have heard that some of the small- cr firms have refused to sign the re- quired stipulation and have been black- listed by the alliance. These blacklisted flii ma are not permitted to receive any wool and refused the sanction of the ees Textile Alliance, Which means the Brit- ish Government.“ A member of the firm of Fleisher & Co., to a World reporter in Philadelphia, said. „Business honestly dictated our with- drawal from the Textile Alliance, We are manufacturers of worsteds. At the ecutbreak of the war we sent a man to Europe to take orders. He secured orders from Holiand, Norway, Sweden, France and other countries. Tbat was before the Textile Alliance was organ- ized. When we began filling the orders Mr. Patterson came to us and told us we would have to join the organization ic we wished to continue the receiving of imported woola., ; “The British Government also decreed that no persons in this country receiv- ing British wool should export woolen goods to any country except “anada. That was too much for us. We insisted that as American manufacturers we had a right to export goods made of Ameri- can wool and that our business honor éemanded that we fulfill contracts made in good faith. “The object of the British Govern- metn in restricting all exportation was mot mecessarily a war measure bet was an attempt te throttle the expansion of business of American manufacturers abroad. The trade representatives of England know that once the foreign market used the product of American mills they would continue te de so and that England would lose a most impor- tant part of ita commerce. The Tex- tile Alliance communicated with us and the result is that we are not now a member of that organization. “We are carrying out our contracts in every instance, irrespective of the Textile Alliance or the mandates of the British Government. As an American manufacturer we feel that we have the right to extend out business wherever possible, without interference from any foreign Government. “Some of our shipments have been held up, and in some instances the steamship companies have refused to receive our goods, but there is one thing any customer of ours may depend vpon—we will carry out our business contracts wherever possible.“ How Business is Transacted, Aside from the printed circulars sent out by the Textile Alliance, in which the conditions imposed by the. British Government on wool dealers and woolen manufacturers are set forth the com- munication between the Textile A'liance and American importers is by first hand and not in the nature of written corres- pondence. The method of communica- tion is this: President Patterson calls up an Amer- ican importer on the telephone and in- vites him to call at the alliance head- quarters. If the importer does not come President Patterson goés to see him. Occasionally the importer receives a polite request to call upon Sir Richard Crawford, who is officially attached to the British Embassy. He is then in- formed as to the conditions under which he will be permitted to do business out- CONTROL AMERI cotton, rubber, tin, and plumbago. show the | by Great Eritain in lines controls the suppliies of ra Britain until after the war, will be printed. j ¢ 2 5 i See ae APS: 8 side the United States. Usually the im- porter joins the allrance American citizen. Up to the time of the war Oelrichs & Co. had the American agency of the North. German Lloyd Steamship Co. They also conducted a foreign freight and express business under the name oi the Oel- richs & Co., forwarding department. Prior to the war Oelrichs & O., bought $400,000 worth of wool in South Africa, which was awaiting ship- ment to the United States there. Fol- lowing the British orders in council Oelrichs & Co. joined the Textile Al- liance. It subscribed to the conditions imposed and made application te have its wool shipped. The Textile Alliance approved the application. After the shipment was under way Sir Richard Crawford sent for Mr. Schwab and called his attention to a letter written by Frederick Henjes Jr., manager of the Oelrichs forwarding de- partment, to a Berlin business house. e latter had been opened by a British censor, and its contents cabled to the British embassy in Washington. The letter suggested a method of forward- ing shipments intended for Germany through Sweden so as to avoid the Brit- ish blockade.

GREAT SYNDICATE |" put out the British and French Govern- $1.95 Georgette Crepe = $4 39 N MONDAY EVENING, SEPrTEMBEK 20, 1918. WILL UNDERWRITE GREDIT 10 ALLIES Banks and. Trust ‘Companies Throughout the Country to Be Invited to Participate, By Associated Press. NEW YORK, Sept. -The largest un- derwriting syndicate the Western world ever has known was in process of for- mation today to handle ‘the proposed “billion dollar“ credit loan to Great Britain and France, which now has shrunk, it is reported, to a sum yet to be determined, between $600,000,000 and $800, 000,000. This mammoth syndicate, according to tentative arrangements said to have been agreed upon, will be nation-wide in character, comprising national and state banks and trust companies from the Atlantic to the Pacific. A number of so-called pro-German financiers, it was reported, will join the syndicate if it be finally agreed that the proceeds of the big loan shall be available only fcr commodity exports and not for war munitions. The price at which this syndicate will ment bonds, issued to secure the loan will be par. The bonds will pay five per cent interest and will be a first mortgage upon the entire British Em- pire and France and her colonics. Other Obligations Subordinate. All other obligations of the two na- tions would de subordinated to the pro- posed big bond issue here. Even the staggering sums raised by bond issues at home, with which the war has been carried on, will come second to the loan to be floated here when the time comes to pay the principal. For the first time in history the En- glish pound sterling has yielded first place in international finance to the American dollar in the respect that the whole big issue of bonds will be pay- able in American dollars, principal and interest. For generations Great Brit- ain's bonds have been payable only in sterling. The bonds will run five or 10 years; it is nat yet known which. In agreeing to have the issue handled by an underwriting syndicate, the An- glo-French Financial Commission, whose errand here is to establish the loan, apparently has deferred to the views of American financiers, the original inten- tion of the commission having been re- ported to provide for general subscrip- tion to the bonds without the under- writer as a middleman. As soon as the definite terms of the proposed loan shall have been agreed upon in their entirety, banks and trust companies throughout the country, it is understood, will be invited to become parties to the syndicate of underwriters, It is regarded as certain that the mem- bership of the syndicate will consist of hundreds of institutions, and possibly thousands. These banks will be given a small profit on the transaction, some- where in the neighborhood of one-half of 1 per cent, it is believed. JOHN D. JR. ON LONG-PLANNED VISIT TO COLORADO MINES Arrives With Party at Trinidad to Inspect Rockefeller Coal Properties. TRINIDAD, Colo., Sept. 20.—John D. Rockefeller Jr. arrived here today for an inspection of the properties of the Colorado Fuel & Iron Co. Rockefeller and his party probably will spend two or three weeks in Col- orado. He has just visited his father in Cleveland. The Colorado visit of Rockefeller as active representative of. the -principal mining interest of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Co. has been planned since early in the year. It had its inception at the New York hearings before the Federal Commission on Industrial Re- lations. On Jan. 27 Rockefeller was a witness before the commission. After leaving the stand for the noon recess the capitalist stopped to speak to Mother“ Mary Jones, Colorado labor enthusiast, and she invited him to visit Colorado ‘‘while the ashes of Ludlow are still hot.’’ Other labor leaders present at the in- dustrial relations hearing urged Rocke- feller to visit the scenes of the recently ended Colorado coal miners’ strike. Rockefeller began his inspection by a visit to the Berwind mine. The Rockefeller party made the 15-mile trip to Berwind from ‘Trinidad in two automobiles. On the way a long detour was made to pass by the site of the Ludlow tent colony. Rockefeller stopped his car for several minutes while his compan- ions pointed out to him the various places connected with the battle of Ludlow, fought April 20, 1914, be- tween strikers and militiamen.

MAN FINED $20 FOR CRUELTY To ANIMALS ON WOMAN'S COMPLAIN Mrs. Mary Bohn Testifies That Driver Prodded Mule With Whip Handle to Make It Go Faster. On complaint of Mrs. Mary Bohn, of 3336 Arlington avenue, Thomas Unland of 6349 North Newstead ave- nue was fined $20 and costs in Judge Sanders’ court today on a charge of cruelty to an animal. Mrs. Bohn testified that at Twelfth and Howard streets, Saturday, she saw. Unland driving a team of mules at a gallop and prodding one of them with a whip handle to make it go faster. Mrs. Bohn called to the driver to stop, but he ignored the command. She noted the name on the wagon, The Western Planing Mill Co., and she went to the company’s office and caused Unland's arrest. Uniand introduced in evidence a photograph of the wagon and team to show that when on the seat he was five feet from the mules, and o Today— You'll Know / Real War When You See ALL SEATS 25 CENTS y THE “mie GERMAN SIDE UF THE WAR SIX REELS OF SENSATIONAL MOTION PICTURES PRESENTED BY ae The Chicago Tribune The World’s Greatest Newspaper * Most Tremendous Motion Pictures Ever Shown!

Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Sept. 0.— A minister bas no right, maybe, to make money, and perhaps does his best work with- out it. If there iz anybody who thinks or me in connection with the lecture platform and making money, jet me say to him that there are poor foreign mis- sionaries and social workers, and thos2 in settlement houses, whose shoe lace J am not worthy to stoop down and These were the words of the Rev. Dr. Newell Dwight Hillis o his congrega-~- his departures into business enterprises outside bis callirg, and declaring his “hope to begin life again anew.’ Dr. Hillis, who occupies the pulpit of Henry Ward Beccher in Old Plymouth (Church, Brooklyn, and who was served Saturday with the summons in a $50,009 suit for libel brought by rey D. Hlillis. 1 nephew, of Rocky Point, British Co- lumbia, made his statement just before e morning sermon. He did this, he sald. withcut the advice of his counsel, F. W. Heinrichs. Will Try to Settle Suit. The attorney intimated to newspaper men that his client would seek to have the libe! suit settled out of court. Dr. Hillis, with his eyes closed, spoke in a low voice to his congregation, but was distinctly heard in the general hush. “During the last few months,” he said, “I have been the center of a storm of criticism, wigh alternate praise and blame. Some of this criticism is justifiable, perhaps. I wish to meet the storm with face to thé front and ex- plain things to my friends in Plymouth church and the public. Let me say at the otuset that this statement is not made as an apology, for I am not conscious of having at any time betrayed the trust that my people Have reposed in me, “About 10 years ago, under tie influ- ence of what 1 believed was just and honorable, I tried to make provision for the future of my family and others dependent upon me and give certain young men 2 start in life. Ten years ago I had made a considerable sum out of writing and lecturing. How much I am ashamed to mention in view of the little wages of the working people and the poor. Has Enough to Pay Debts. “For some years all went well. Then came the panic of 1907. I had made myself indirectly responsible. Six years ago I set myself to the task of seeing that no one should. suffer loss but my- self. In the providence of God I have now enough to pay off all debts, so that I hope to begin life anew, without rroperty, but, also, without Cebts. “No minister has any right, perhaps, to engage in business matters. One of the reasons for this statement is my feeling that to some students of the- ology who have read my books.and have teen kind enough to regard me as an example, my influence has not ‘beer #cod and that I have biased them tos ward profit, publicity and the lect uns platform, instead of toward gentle, lov- humble, poorly-paid, Christ-like service. “I feel that I should say to these men that some time I loved my books more than the poor; that I have loved posi- tion; that I have loved office and honor; that sometimer I have thought of my own interest when every drop of blodd and every ounce of strength that I haj , the aged, to the boys and girls and to the tired and hungry of mankind.” Distinguished Automobiles Seven-passenger Packard cars exclu- sively; rates $3 and $4 per hour.

At the time of the shooting Philiber: had climbed into Ressler’s wagon ani was approaching the driver's seat.

Dumba, the Austro-Hun- farian Ambassador to Vienna, arrived here today on the liner Rotterdam. Several secret service men boarded the ‘| Rotterdam at Quarantine early today, immediately went to Archabild’s state- room and questioned him for some time. The secret service men were reported to have searched Archibald, his baggage end the stateroom taken away a cane belonging to to have taken away a cane belonging to the correspondent. Archibald denied this and would not admit having even talked to the secret service men. After leaving Quarantine, Archibald said: “I do not know anything about the situation here. If there is any ‘con- templated prosecution of me, it is per- fectly unjust. “I took the letter which caused the trouble from Ambassador Dumba, with- out knowledge of its contents and en- tirely unwittingly. That is all I care to say at present.’’ Archibald, on landing, met a man he described as his secretary. The man said he was Charles Mercer. Archibald and Mercer held a short confer- ence and Archibald then announced that he would defer the issu- ing of an aditional statement. He said he expected to go to Washington soon. Dr. Dumba has reserved passage on the steamer Rotterdam, which leaves New York Sept. 28. The reservation was made today. The Rotterdam’s port of destination is Rot- terdam, Holland, whence the Ambas- sador may travel through neutral ter ritory into Germany and thence to Vien- na. The Rotterdam will make on this trip her usual call at Falmouth, En- gland, but it is assumed that the Am- bassador has received assurances through the United States Government that his safe passage js guaranteed. Ambassador. Dumba, at last accounts, was at his summer home at Lenox, Mass. TRORLICHT-DUNCKER FIRM | OPENS ITS NEW nok After having done business on Fourth sireet for more than a half century, the Trorlicht-Duncker Co., dealers in high giade furniture rugs, carpets and home Gecorations, today formally opened its new quarters in the nine-story — elfth and Locust streets. the inclement weather, there were many visitors before the noon hour, all of whom were conducted through the build- ing cn a tour of inspection. Each hour ot the morning brought floral pieces from the many friends of the firm. The largest and handsomest of these Nor more floral pieces was a huge fleur-de-lis from Mrs. Trorlicht. The nine floors of the new buildin are stocked with everything rew an cf the latest type and pattern and make. This is the same in the wholesale an- tex, which occupies four floors. On the ninth floor are to bo found the latest in wicker ware, women’s desks, beds, leather furniture and. mat- tresses. The eighth floor is devoted en- tirely to bedroom sets of every descrip- tion. The seventh floor is what women might call a dream in dining room fur- niture. There is one set of 12 pieces on this floor worth $1750. The uphol- stery department is on the sixth floor. Here buyers will find a single chair that sells for $200 and a davenport, the price of which alone is $350. There is also a room on the sixth floor for laying out plans, etc. The draperies are on the floor below, which connects with the top floor of the wholesale department. On the fourth floor are all the high- grade rugs. In the Oriental rug depart- ment there s one Persian rug, 16.3x24.6, that is valued at $9000. Persia’s sacred color, green, runs all through the re- ligious design. The third floor is set aside for carpets and the second for ordinary rugs. of which there are 3500. Below this is the meezanine floor for the offices, and then the main floor. The operfing will continue tomorrow and Wednesday. All ot the visitors to the store today were talking of the firm’s full-page ad- vertisement in the rotogravure section or the Sunday Post-Dispatch. This ad- vertisement, the visitors declared, was a marvel and the most artistic piece of advertising ever s in St. Louis news- papers. It is the first time that any firm in the United States has published a full-page advertisement in the roto- Perens section of any newspaper. Get Your Famfly n : BETTER HOME.

Pretty nearly every day somebody saye— f „But how in the world did you do it all so quickly?” And the answer is We didn't.“ As à matter of fact, Triangle Fihm has been really years in the making. But like many great enterprises which have been long in preparation—nothing was said of it until it was done. To do first and talk later was the idea. | For a long, long time Griffith 4nd Ince and Sennett have been making moving pictures: that were so much — of ordinary ones that exhibitors almost fought to get them. But like all ambitious men—especially artiste—they were all the time fretting because: they wanted to make them better still and were held down by the money limita- tions of low-priced theaters. Even so—they were perfecting great organizations— which got better every day. ' mt ‘Among them they had got together about fifty of the most expert photographers in the world, and with each of these trying to make clearer, more beautiful pictures than the rest, can you imagine the perfection of the studios! It was natural enough that directors who were am- bitious gathered about Griffith, Ince and Sennett—espe- cially when they saw what photography they. wer producing. } All this time the acting was getting better. . Really wonderful artists were developing— : Mae Marsh, Ralph Lewis, Seena Owen, Robert Herron, Wallace Reid, William S. Hart, Enid Markey, Fred Mace, Bessie Barriscale, Ford Sterling, Mabel Normand, Roscoe Arbuckel, Lillian and Dorothy Gish. Everybody chafed under the holding back of Price. Then Griffith broke all bounds—jumped all barriers— got some of his friends to help with money—and on his own hook produced The Birth of a Nation.“ 5 ‘ Everybody said it was wonderful —and everybody said it wouldn’t pay! Then it was shown in New York; and the whole town clamored for seats at $2.00 each. Don't you see how simple the rest was? The men behind Griffith and Ince and Sennett took off the financial lid“ and the fur began to fly with a Vengeance. _, ie Matieeie nit. Each of these great directors Had up his sleeve won- derful things he'd been wanting to do for years! Here a certain stage star was the needed last touch; there a tremendous mob scene; still again some amazing mechanical effect“ that would cost a fortune. Directors camera men actors and actresses outdid themselves! + Stage Stars that had always shied at moving pictures listened—and came! | : Then the news trickled out; wise exhibitors, for they had found that the one best show in town always succeeded —no matter what rent had been paid for film—began tele- graphing for “‘reservations’’—and the rest fought for what was left. ape The star executives of the big film distribu com- panies let it be known that their services might soe And all this time no company had been formed—noth- ing had been arrived at beyond a rough, general under- standing among the men who had put up the money. Less than two months ago the thing finally took shape, and the Triangle Film“ became a Corporation. * It had no liabilities. Ai Its assets were probably the most valuable pieces of paper ever executed in the film business—for they were contracts for the work of these three supervising producers for years to come! 5 Its chief stockholders besides these men—whose fu- ture is pledged to it—were Adam and Charles Kessel, Charles Bauman and H. E. Aitken, every one of whom had got rich in the film business. Its executives, the pick of the industry. Its good-will, the promise of business from e of the very highest type the country over! 80 you see, it isn’t so very wonderful after all that, newly corporate as it is, Triangle Film is already a fine, strong, smooth-running 1 business as easily and efficiently as though its parts been working to- gether for years. f Nor that the Triangle Plays which first appear at th ; ocker Theater, New York, next — > will have the perfection that comes only with years of prepar- ation and months of polishing.

INVESTIGATION OF THEFT OF BALLOTS TOBE DEMANDED Voters’ League of Ritenour School District Calls Meet- ing for Tomorrow. A meeting of the Voters’ League of the Ritenour School District of St. Louis County has been called for tomorrow night to demand an investigation of the theft of the ballots used in the $23,000 bond issue election in May, which ele- tion the league ee was carried by fraud. The ballots would es been a vital issue in the legal contest about to be started over the election, G. M. Ringen, a clerk in the Third National Bank, who is secretary of the School Board, was the legal custodian of the ballots. He re- ported yesterday to W. 8S. Robinson, president of the Voters’ League, that he recently transferred the ballots from the vaults of the Overland State Bank to 3a wardrobe in the school house in Over- una Park, and that when he went to OME OF -of saving are these—it produces Character, Contentment and Power.

A committee of the Voéters’ League re- cently made a demand upon Prosecuting Attorney Ralph, of St. Louis County for a grand jury investigation of the elec- tion. The committee presented to Ralph the affidavits of 8 voters of the district, who stated that they had voted against the bond issue, while only 6&8 were credit- ed against it by the judges and clerks of election. The committee also present- ed to Ralph the names of 20 other voters | who were willing to go before the grand jury and testify that they had voted against the bond issue. Ralph, instead of ordering the investi- gation, advised the committee to emplov an attorney and institute a civil suit to have the bonds declared illegal. The ev- idence developed at the civil suit, he said, could then be presented to the grand jury. It was since the complaint was made to Ralph that the ballots have been stolen, according to the state- ment made by Ringen to Robinson.

CHICAGO, Sept. 20.—Mrs. Scott Du- rand, society woman and dairyest, of Lake Bluff, III., whose $35,000 herd of Guernsey cattle has been under quaran- tine, today announced her intention of carrying to the State Supreme Court the fight to save her prize herd from slaughter. Judge Charles H. Donnelly of the Circuit Court at Woodstock, III., refused to make permanent a temporary injunc- tion obtained recently by Mrs. Durand the night before her cattle were to have been killed. The Court ruled, however, that the writ remained in force pend- Ing an appeal to the Supreme Court, a motion for which was made at once by Mrs. Durand’s attorneys. Incidentally, Mrs. Durand is virtually a prisoner on her farm, being quarantined until the contest is settled. Attorney-General Lucey said that if the injunction were made permanent, every family in Illinois who owned a cow would become a party to the writ, and that the State of Illinois would find itself confronted with ironclad. embar- goes on livestock and dairy produce. Under an agreement reached between Mrs. Durand and Lucey, an attempt will be made to cure the herd. Under ordinary conditions, an experiment of this kind would take about three months.

Louis Lest Opportunities.” Under this head- ing some time ago I read an article onethe edi- t page of the Post-Dispatch written by Mr. J A. Martin. It was exceedingly timely and to the point. é Unfortunately I did not read your editorial, ‘When Will St. Louis Awaken?” but from what I have read lately in the St. Louls papers it looks very much ag though your city is taking a Rip Van Winkle slumber. When too late you will wake up to find that you are no longer the fourth city of the United States and that your exceedingly progressive neighbor, Kansas City, has passed you in tion. Now, there is a town full of hus-/ tei while St. Lovin, Yam sorry to say, tn com- mainly of knockers. Your cartoon of “Opportunity”: of July 18. was exeslient. “They have so much knocking here they don't know mine, when they hear it” A more truthful saying could not have been writ- ten, and as our friend, T. R. says, It was bully.” The majority of St. Louisans are born pesst- mists, and very few of them will spend a cent un- less they see a dollar in sight. The Parkway bill should have been passed, but there are too many tightwads in St. Louis to pass any kind of project that requires the expenditure of a little money. 1 t. Louisans are this way I cannot imagine, f desire to state that you have a beautiful city, good streets, elegant office buildings, beauti- ful résidence districts, fine schools (among the best in the United States), large, beautiful parks (and in this you certainly excel), one of the very beat street car systems anywhere, large, commo- dious Union Station, and, all in all, a fine place in whioh to live. I was a resident of St. Louis for over 25 years, and I have nothing but pleasant memories for it. And. by the way, I desire to state that the resi- dents of Los Angeles are quite different from those residing in St. Louis. Los Angeles, as you know, is called the City of Angels, but it could well be called the City of Boosters, for every man, wom@n and child is continually boosting. And it they have nothing else to doost about they boost the weather. The citizens are optim- istic to a high degree, and this is as it should be. Hoping to see St. Louis prosper, as it should. 1 G. G. C. Te the Editor ef the Post-Dispatch. Two very large ee are now pressing upon reality owners in St. ulis. The heavy summer rains, besides the great August storm, have watér-soaked the outer walls of thousands of houses disastrously, which will take weeks of hot weather, followed by stove or furnace heat inside, to dry out. I. Meantime, tenants are fussing about ruined paper hanging. Their room walls are hideous and smelly with mildew. The question is, what can be done ter, them now or soon? Must we wait em the walls are fully dried out, or by what process can new paper be made to hold its color and texture if put on still damp walis? 12 des of nearly all the brick walls of the city are defaced by whitish streaks from the great storm. Did they exude from the mortar in ¢ Joints, or from the bricks? What is the chem- sal composition of this ugly white veil? And by at simple process of washing, if any, can it be moved? Must these walls, at vast expense, be uck-pointed? Are the joints now more porous „ #nd susceptible to absorb rain than before? 1 find that experts differ on the above points Therefore, the Post-Dispatch, in its popular forum, can do a great service to our people by eliciting are discussion of the same. ing of his recent visit to Austria and of ms there (as reported in your issue of Amt) Prof. Silver of Hobart College, says: “There is no : rican feeling in Austria.“ Austrian very generally blame Ger- diplomacy and the German submarine policy Mifeeling that has developed in America 2 4 og ae, a > aul . n : 7 9 aie „„ ES ei tn To site 5 85 „ „ X F BEE 8 52 ’ oy .

This is queer reasoning. Surely the Mayor does not want an official in this important place who is not conscientious. We assure him that the people do not. How liberal does the Mayor want the head of the Efficiency Board to be? It is Hard to err on the side of conscientiousness, but easy to fall into grave error on the side ot liber- ality. The Mayor admits that he asked Mr. Rogers to waive the rule as to examination of appli- canta in the case of Dr. Wichmann, his family physician and distant connection, and that Rogers refused. Mr. Rogers says in this as in all other cases he felt bound to adhere to the board’s system and rules, and that his refusal to annul them in behalf of Wichmann was the be- ginning of the Mayor’s opposition to him. Was not Mr. Rogers right? If he yielded in one case, in how many cases would he be ex- pected to yield? If he annulled the board's system and rules in one case, what would be- come of the system? We know that a bitter fight has been made on the efficiency system, and particularly on Mr. Rogers, because of his rigid support of the charter efficiency provision and his consci- entious attempt to give it full effect. We know the source and motive of the opposition. We know that the political spoilemen detest the effi- clency system. We know there is a conspiracy to destroy it and to nullify the charter pro- vision. We know that tremendous pressure has been brought to bear on Chairman Rogers to relax his rulings for favored henchmen. No matter what the Mayor’s own attitude may be on the efficiency system, he knows that a fight is being waged against it, who is making the fight and why it is made. He knows that Chairman Rogers is the target of the spoils con- spirators. | Admitting that Mr. Rogers is narrow in his view of his duty, what justification is there for thrusting him aside? What is the real reason for it? Who will be benefited by his fall—the people or the spoilsmen? What will be the ef- foct of it—to strengthen or weaken the charter? It is clear as day that the blow at Chairman Rogers is a blow at the new charter. It is a victory for the spofis politicians. The most conspicuous thing in the quarrel be- tween the Mayor and Chairman Rogers is the Mayor's wéakzie#s. The people will make no mistake in their judgment on the issue. i ii i * ME. GORDON’S TU QUOQUE. . “But they also practiced nepotism under Gov. Hadley’s administration,“ exclaims State Auditor Gordon in the usual tu quoque accents of triumph. But how many of the Hadleyites made raids on the State public school funds? When a Hadleyite bought at the same time and from the same dealer an automobile for the State and one himself, was it the custom to appropri- ate the entire heavy discount for his own benefit and pay the full catalogue price for the State's machine? = re ANOTHER MEDDLER. Great Britain’s direct interferences with the neutral tzade of the United States have been grievous. The subterranean indirect interfer- ences which are exposed elsewhere in this issue are especially distinguished for their resemblance in impudence to the performances of the Teu- tonic Powers in extending the operations up to the very doors of every American fndustry on American soil. It is evidently necessary to inform England that she must mind her own business and confine her blockading and war-waging to the block- ading line and the war area. Dictating to Amer- ican manufacturers in restriction of their busi- ness through a far-flung attempt to contro! their raw material supplies is not conducive to friendly relations with this country or an effective prose- cution of the war. All along, Newell Dwight Hillis has had Scriptural authority for the truth that one can- GOVERNMENT-OWNED UTILITIES The decision of the Postoffice Department to take over the contracts for transferring mails in St. Louis, performing the service with Gov- ernmentowned automobiles, followed certain in- teresting developments in New York. It was found that the Cassidy Postal Transfer Service Co., which had the contracts in New York City, had been defrauding the department of about $125,000 a year by charging extra mileage. Similar frauds were also suspected in Boston. Succeeding this discovery it was found that the Cassidy company had planned a practical monopoly of mail transferring in the larger cen- ters, submitting bids in St. Louis, Chicago, Min- neapolis and other cities. When the postal service is cited as an example of a utility efficiently operated under public a thousand and one other essentials of the serv- ice have heretofore been supplied by contract. The Government assumes directly itself only such responsibilities as clerical work in post- by city and rural carriers, the long range and not always efficient supervision from the Washing- ton department. These are minimized as minor details of the service. Government transfer of mails in St. Louis will save $50,000 or $60,000 a year, as compared with contract transfer, and will have other advan- tages. The tendency in the future should look to Government performance wherever practica] in the postal service of the Government's own activities and functions. = -_ = A lot of great Generals have been decorated, but at the end the biggest decoration will be pinned to Gen. Bankruptcy. a A 6 r SMASH CITY AND STATE NEPOTISM. Alderman Eilers’ bill prohibiting nepotism is needed te supplement existing provisions of law designed to place all city appointments on a strict basis of merit. No doubt can exist as to the public’s desire for legislation of this character. From Kansas City to St. Louis and from the Iowa line to the Arkansas line a storm of furious criticism ‘i directed at the Jefferson City department heads who thriftily unload their relatives onto the State payrolls. The abuse is at least as flagrant in city as in State affairs. In fact, it has been found that the St. Louis city payroll is besprinkled with the names of no less than eight different members of the same family, all Koelns. The Kiels are also well represented in city jobs. This rather out- classes anything the most audacious Jefferson City politicians have dared to do with the pub- o money of the State. The people have no idea of electing a whole family to office in giving one member of it an appointive job, it should not mean that all his relatives are to get subordinate jobs in his de- partment. The Eilers bill makes nepotism a crime pun- ishable by forfeiture of office and heavy fine. This vigorous, man-size way of dealing with the evil suggests the kind of law the next Legislature should pass to end the disgraceful nepotism scandal in the Statehouse. = = % A Wilson has tried to be right and to do right. It is wiser to toast him than to roast him. = = — = CARRANZA'S CLAIMS. If Carranza can demonstrate that he, with the support of the Constitutionalist armies, is capable of controlling the situation in Mexico, his claims to recognition will be very strong. Wholly aside from his personality, the rest is whether he has the power to establish and maintain a national government. In the fluctuations of civil war, provinces and cities have so frequently changed hands as to leave the question in doubt. With the weakening of the resistance of the other fac- tions, he comes nearer today to dominating the situation than at any time since he split with Villa. To look too closely into the regularity to the title of a victorious leader in Mexico in the cir- cumstances is likely to lead to prolonged con- ditions of anarchy. For the restoration of peace it is necessary that some man shall develop the strength to rule Mexico that is an essential pre- liminary to the establishing of a permanent gov- ernment and the enforcing of law and order. Constitutional forms wait on military success, and Carransa, as First Chief or with whatever title may gratify his vanity, should soon be in a position to offer the facts as his best argu- ments if his Generals continue upon their present course. ‘ Brave Stefaneson has discovered more land, but not for agricultural purposes. It is more for ice plants. That lovely little animal story from Clay County will delight children and nature lovers that story of the mother hound who lost her puppies and went out and found a litter of skunk kittens which she brought home and adepted in liew of her natural offspring. 0 Is it not a charming instance of the gratifica- tion of maternal vanity and the noblest of in- stincts, besides a domestic picture beautiful to contemplate? At last reports mother and chil- dren were getting along nicely together, preserv- ing that ideal harmony which should prevail among all living creatures to the end of perfect universal happiness. Their undisturbed and blissful relations appeal to the poetic sense. Poet, Utopist, optimist and perfect Socialist will have faith for the ‘perseverance of the unity. But somehow we can't believe that the arrangement is going to last. We recall one poet’s warning: Hope tells a flattering tale, Delusive, vain and hollow. Ah! Let not hope prevail, Lest disappointment follow. Sentiment is all very well, but we have so often seen adopted children turn out bad. Some human animals. Once we knew an adopted son who grew up to be a boozer and a loafer. He just lay around the house and let his poor old adop- tive mother break her back over the washboard to support him—and he ended by driving her out of her house. A whole lot depends on the nature and instincts with which people are born. Good raising can’t overcome the natural-born meanness of what is universally recognized as an “ornery cuss.” WBWugenics is not all foolishness. Look at the United States! Not to mention how she has been served by the large family of pensioners she adopted and supported, some of whom have turned against her in a crisis; see how she has been treated by the large and “How sharper than a serpent’s tooth it is to have a thankless child!” 5 We can't -help feeling a little sad for that doting old mother hound when we reflect that nothing in the. world can be more unfilial than a little skunk when the worst comes to the juan. ‘ 4 : tah : * N BR. 2 N A 1 offices and mail cara, the actual delivery of mail) elective job.

IDNEY HOCKES says that whenever you see Isaac Hellwanger’s whiskers moving you may know he is either talking or the regular wind is blowing. 7 Slim Pickens was a pleasant social visitor in the Calf Ribs neighborhood Sunday afternoon. He let his mule go slow all the way for fear that his new derby hat would jar off. A stray cow followed Yam Sims to the Dog Hill church last second Sunday. The object of her at- tention was the new shuck collar worn by Yam’s mule. Idttle Fidity Flinders spent one night last week with his grandma in Tickville. The bright lights almost strangled him. > Tt has been ordered that all the benches in the Hog Ford church be dusted off right good next Sunday morning, as Raz Barlow is scheduled to be present in his new blue serge suit. | Ellick Hellwanger, while taking in the magic lan- tern show at Tickville Saturday night, was robbed of sixty cents in change. The robbers somehow over- looked a dollar bill he had in the bottom of his shoe. The stove at the postoffice will be put up in a few days. A large crowd will be present to witness the unveiling ceremonies, and to suggest as to how the pipe should be put together. A new path is to be laid out between here and Bounding Billows, and Atlas Peck has been named as a committee of one to walk back and forth over the route for the next two weeks. Atlas Peck has missed a lot of straw from his pile on Musket Ridge.

One of these we engaged in conyer- sation. He informed us he had just washed his under shirt and socks, and we sat and mused in fragrant silence. It was not altogether a fragrant silence either, for the air lacked an inoculation of the Mary Garden brand of perfume. Washing anything is not conducive to produce that effect. The Tommie explained that ‘‘We wash our shirts and then we go and get killed in them.“ Such a waste of energy. Why wash them at all? Or, better still, let some other fellow wear the shirt.

TRANSLATEO e iel EN ROWLAND Y DAUGHTER, hearken unto the Parable of the Wise and Foolish Widows. For the Dangerous Age cometh on apace, and there is no hope save in PREPARADNESS. Now, there dwelt in Babylon two Widows-of-forty, and neither of them was passe nor yet upon the shelf. And they said: “Why shall we retire to the chaperon’s corner? Nay, let us be reno- } vated and go forth and show the damsels of the Land what we can DO. For a Simple Squab hath no chance beside us!” And, behold, the first Widow put aside her mourning and arrayed her- self in pastel pink, and a girly-girly hat, and a skirt of . exceeding great shortness. And when the beauty specialist, and the masseuse, and the modiste had finished their labor she WAS a work of art, almost unto new. Then she went forth SMILING and the light of pursuit was in her eye. And all her ways were kittenish, and her words sprightly and bub- bling over with spice and flippancy and tender cooings. Yea, she was SO “fetching!” | But at sight of her men fled on wings of Fear, crying: “What is THIS that pursueth us with nets and hooks and unblushing frankness? Alas, alack, it is neither Squab nor Woman, fish nor flesh, nor good red herring!” . ; And the Foolish Widow wept and was confounded, for none but col- lege boys and dancing youths came unto her net. But the second Widow LENGTHENED her mourning veil and arrayed herself in Black Crepe-de-Chine and dull jet and white organdie. And the sadness in her eyes was inexpressible. And when men passed by she dropped her eyelashes and seemed not to heed them. Yea, her demureness was unspeakable and her RESERVE beautiful to behold and her Hs did her work for her. But when men gathered about her and drew more near to “see what it was all about,” she smiled upon them with the smile of widows and of angels and admonished them softly, saying: “Alas, thou art SO kind, yet I pray thee waste not thy time upon me, for my heart is in the Frave!“ And thereupon each man departed in search of a SPADE! And they vied each with the other for the privilege of making her life more bearable with flowers and burnt offerings and proposals of marriage.

Then she opened her eyes, which were like two pansies, so dark and soft they looked, and smil- ing at the stranger she closed them again without speaking. The stranger touched her again, and said, I have come for you; are you ready to go?“ This time the maiden opened her eyes and sat up. She threw out her arms and stretched them as though awaken- ing from a long sleep. Tes, I am ready to go with you,” she said, but we cannot escape. It will not let us.“ The stranger was just about to ask what she meant by it,“ when she no- ticed that the opening in the, rock was slowly closing and that in a few min- utes the maiden would be shut inside. What could he do? .With one hand he had to hold the side of the rock, and he could not rescue her with the other; but all at once he noticed the stick which he had quite forgotten on the top of the rock. It was jumping up and down, trying to attract his attention. E did not wait; it was his only N chance, and he climbed up the rock and reached for the stick. Without waiting to get down, he reached with the stick the opening in the rock, and just as it was almost closed he pushed into the small space that was open. ‘The rock fell away and rolled den the side of the mountain, making a noige like thunder as it went. Feeling sure he had saved the maid, the stranger ciimbed to the ground, in- stead of going over the side of the mountain again, and struck the rock with the stick. i This time the rock crashed in pieces, and again it rolled with the sound of thunder down the side of the moun- tain, and the maid and the couch were all that was left. This time she did not wait to be asked to go; she arobe from the couch and held out her hands. “Take me home,” she said; “I know you are the Prince.” When the rocks had rolled down the mountain the first time all the people in the village rushed from their homes with fright, and at the second sound all eyes were fixed on the mountain. When the noise had ceased and the people had recovered from their fright so they could see, a, path down the side of the mountain could be plainly seen, and a horse and rider coming along it. The rider held something white in his arms.
