ACTION FOLLOWS FILING OF TWO SUITS BY CREDITORS Inability to Meet Obligations Declared bv the » Railway’s Officials to Be Due to the “Gen- eral Financial Conditions Growing Out of the European War.”’ The Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railway Co., popularly known as the ‘‘Katy,’’ went into the hands of a receiver today. Charles BE. Schaff, president of the railroad, was appointed receiver, and Joseph M, Bryson, the road’s general counsel, was appointed attor- ney for the receiver. The ‘‘Katy”’ is the fourth large system with general offices in St. Louis to go into a receivership. The Wabash, Frisco and Missouri Pacific-[ron Mountain systems, with an aggregate capital of nearly $1,000,000,000, have passed into receivers’ hands in the order named. The St. Louis Southwestern (Cotton Belt) is the only line with headquarters here which is not administered by a e receiver, The receivership action was taken by agreeemnt and upon authority of the ‘*Katy’s’’ board of directors. sis which caused the directors to The financial eri- disagree upon a receivership, ‘so as to hold the assets of the railway company intact, resulted from the refusal of the holders of about $1,000,000,000 worth of the $25,000,000 two-year 5 per cent notes to accept an extension pro- posal made by the company when the notes fell due June 1. The holders of $18,000,600 of the outstanding notes accepted the com- pany’s' proposition, but suits have been started by the minority holders in some places, which precipitated the receivership suit. Although the receivership order was issued Saturday by United States Cir- cult Judge Eimier B. Adams, at his summer home'in Woodstock, Vt., it. was not made public until filed here at noon by Judgé Dyer in the Federal Court. Sudge Adams, after issuing the orders, -gent them to Judge Dyer to be, re- corded. | There had been rumors of a pending receivership since last Friday, but Katy” officials on that day and on contemplated. The Katy directors met in New York Saturday and agreed to have a receiver appointed. The Executive Committee of the company had recommended the re- ceivership as the only means of holding the company's properties together. Friendly Proceeding. Two creditors’ bills, identical in phraseology, were prepared by the law tirm of Boyle & Priest, and upon them the receivership was authorized. The company, according to previous ar- rangement, filed an answer acknowl- edging its inability to meet its liabili- ties, and assenting to the receivership. The receivershi>, therefore, is, what is termed in legal phraseology friendly proceeding. ! The Missouri, Kansas & Texas lines in the State of Texas are operated by a Texas corporation, according to the Vexas laws. Schaff also was appointed receiver for the Texas lines. The “Katy” is a Kansas corporation, but its principal offices are maintained in St. Louls, although the annual stock- holders’ meetings are held in Jarscns, Saturday had denied such action ne Kan. : The holders of $200,600 of the notes, in Boston, recently filed an, attachment suit there against the company. Similar suite were threatened vy some of the Western note holders. Without a re- ceivership, the company’s property would have becomé subject to attach- ment in the several different states where it is located. The appointment of a réceiver will stop the filing of at- techment suits, and place all creditors upon an equal footing. The receivership suits were filed by the Ratiway Steel Springs Co., a New Jersey corporation, with offices in New York, which had a claim of $16,600.95 for supplies, and by D. B. Hussey of St. Louis, with a claim of $135,030.85 for ties and equipment. ' Alm to Prevent Many °-!ia. The Steel Springs company’s petition said that in asking for a receivership ic was striving to prevent a multi- plicity of suits in different states, which might have the effect of breaking up the MM. K. T. system into different lines and of the sacrifice of its rolling stock and other necessary equipment to mest ject to mortgages and liens, amounting to $120,000,000, exclusive of equipment trust and collateral trust notes. April 27 1913, it is stated that road authorized an issue of $25,000,000 of two-year 5 per cent notes, due and payable on or before May 1, 1915. Of this, $19,000,000' were issued and sold and are now outstand- ing, it was stated: To secure these, there ~vere deposited under an agreement with the Central Trust Co. of New York, as trustee, $24,- 516,000 par value duly. authorized con- solidated 5 per cent 30-year gold bonds, series A, secured by mortgage, dated April 1, 1910, on all the company’s lines, leased or owned, to the Central Trust Co. and James Campbell, as trustee. The two-year notes, it was stated, ma- tured May 1 last, and the road was un- able to pay them, so made an agreement with the Central Trust Co., under which the notes were to be extended for a year, at 6 per cent interest, if the holders would deposit them for extension. The road made every effort to get the note- holders to agree to this plan, but only about 95 per cent of them, it is stated, did agree, and the holders of notes with a face value of $950,000 withheld their as- sent. The notes are now overdue, it was stated, and many have gone to protest, the road having failed, and refused to pay them.

WEST OF THE ARGONNE —— Three Hundred Officers Among 20,000 German Prisoners Captured—Trenches on 20 Miles of Front Taken by Allies Who Ac- complish More Than in a Year. By Associated Press. BERLIN, via London, Sept. 27.—The War Office announced today that the new offensive movement in the neighborhood of Lillie, Northern France, had been brought to a standstill by fierce German counter attacks. The British attack in other sections also is said to have broken down with very heavy losses to the at- tacking forces. The War. Office concedes, however, that the French offensive has made further progress between Rheims and the Argonne. — — BERLIN, Sept. 27, by wireless to Tuckerton, N. J.—One Brit- ish warship was sunk and two others were damaged in the attack IN 512,000 SULTS by a British squadron on German batteries along the Belgian coast, jespecially at Zeebrugge, simultaneously with the launching of the allied new offensive movement on land, according to the German official statement of Sept. 26. After these losses the British chips withdrew. The otficial statement enumerates the capture of more than 5000 French and British prisoners and a number of machine guns iu the land fighting at various points along the front. Two British officers, 100 men and six machine guns were taken ‘on the Ypres front; 1200 men, including a British brigade com- mander and several officers and ten machine guns, were captured near Souchez, and north of Mourmelon le Grand more than 3750 French, of whom 39 were officers, were taken. (The foregoing claim of losses inflicted upon British naval forces attacking the Belgian coast was omitted from the German official statement as cabled through London yesterday, doubtless having been struck out by the censor.) 300 Officers Among Prisoners Taken by French in Champagne PARIS, Sept. 27.—The new offensive movement is continu. + ” ba | when he alleged that usurious intere@t had been charged in connection with a loan of $400,000, covered by securities of the Halloday-Klotz Land and Lumber Co., and $28,000 worth of bonds of the Williamsville, Greenville & St. Louis Railway. The loan was made through the Hamilton Investment Co., which be- came known as the “tin box’’ company, because a witness said its records were principally contained in a tin box at the National Bank of Commerce. She Had Man Seut to Prisoa. Mrs. Ridgly first became known in this city through her prosecution of Aaron B. Donaldson, then a St. Louis broker liv- ing at 5700 Bartmer avenue. He was ac- cused of obtaining $23,000 from her on valueless mining, stock, after he had made love to her and had prayed with her, although he was at that time mar- ried. He had formerly been a preacher. After Donaldson had served part of a penitentiary sentence he was paroled at Mrs. Ridgly’s request, she having said that the securities had unexpectedly be- come productive and she expected to get all her money back. The Wottowa civil suit for $4600 covers the same transaction as that which brought about the indictment at Belle- vile. It alleges that title to land traded to him for his furnishing goods sture was not valid and that the de- fendants had refused to make it good. The Paynter suits are one on a note for $3000 and two for notes of $2500 each. Continued on Page 2, Column 3.

There is intense cannonading between the Meuse and the Moselle and in Lorraine on the part of both allics and the Germans. Three the hundred German officers are emong the prisoners taken in Champagne. The text of the war office communication follows: “In the Artois district we have maintained our positions. To the east of Souchez our advance, previously reported as having reached the destroyed telegraph line to the north of Thelus, has not as a matter of fact passed the orchards of La Folie’ and the highway from Arras to Lille. The advance, however, has been at all points maintained. “Along the front to the south of the River Somme there has been fighting with bombs and torpedoes in the vicinity of Andrechy. Our artillery has vigorously counter attacked the batteries of the enemy which were connonading our positions at Quennevieres. 300 German Officers Taken in Champagne. “In the Champagne district the fighting has been going on with tenacity along all the front. We have occupied at several places, notably at Trou Bricot, to the north of the Wacques Farm, several positions in the rear of our new lines where certain detachments of the enemy had been able to maintain themselves. The previous statement that we had captured 200 German officers is erroneous; we have taken prisoner 300 German officers in the Champagne district. “Between the Meuse and the Moselle and in the Lorraine distric there has been severe artillery fighting on both sides. : “A violent storm in the Vosges has for the moment suspended all operations in this district.” Reports from the front say that only 20 minutes was required for the French infantry to complete the vic~- tory prepared for by 60 hours of vio-~- .einforeed by reserves, bounded for- ward.

With upwards of 20,000 Ge prisoners in their hands and something like 30 guns, without counting machine guns, and with a formidable breach in the Ger- man line, the allies apparently have their long-expected offensive move- ment well under way. The advance has been general and its effect is tern front a substantial gain for © Russiang is recorded. : wilt is believed in London that the ew move in the west will again "bring the Germans face to face with } | | the necessity of making a choice be- tween the two fronts as was the case earlier in the war. Military writers point out that the Russians are now holding the Austrians and Germans on a front of 700 miles, while the presence of nearly 2,000,000 strongly entrenched Germans has failed to pre- ‘ent an advance in France. This, they fay, must increase the perplexities of the German General Staff and react immediately on any plans which may have been formed for new attacks in the south or southeast. The French, who have the most im- portant gain to their credit, made their chief onset against the German lines around Perthes, Beausejour and Suippes in Champagne, where in De- cember they made a considerable gain of ground. The Germans were driven out of their trenches over a front of 15 miles, vary- ing in depth from two-thirds of a mile to two and one-half miles. The im- portance of this gain lies in the fact that every yard of ground taken in this region weakens the German position around Verdun, from which the Ger- mans might be compelled to retire should the French succeed in making any further advance. The French also have captured Sou- chez and trenches east of the “laby- ‘rinth”’ in the’ Arras district, which was the scene of much heavy fighting earlier in the year. There the Germans had built what they considered almost im- pregnable fortifications. British Win on Five-Mile Front. This attack was made in co-operation with the British, who attacked on either side of the La Bassee Canal. The at- tack to the south of the canal was, Field Marshal Sir John French reports, a complete success. Trenches five miles in width and about 4000 yards in depth were takén at this point. This push forward gives the British possession of the road from Lens to La Bassee, which was used by the Germans for moving troops and supplies north and south and threatens to outflank the German troops which hold the town of Lens. Hili No. 70, one of the positions taken , On the road, is less than a mile directly o “worth of Lens, while Hulluch, which also fell into the hands of the British, fs at the end of the road near La Bag- see. It is only 12 miles from Hulluch to Lille, the capital of Northern France. North of the canal the British, al- though théy fought all day yesterday, unable to hold the ground gained and had to fall back to the trenches which they had left in the morning. The , however, accomplished one "pur- jose, as. according to Field Marshal ch, German reserves were sent to Gheck this move. thus giving the British south of the canal an opportunity to ésnsulidate their new positions unmo- ed. wr somewhat similar mancuver took flace ‘» the north and south of the Menin road, east of Ypres, ani the re- sults were the same.

The reply affirms that Austria-Hun- gary never intended to imply that it ex- pected Washington would forbid Amer- ican citizens doing a normal traffic in war material with the enemies of the dual monarchy, but solely protested against the economic life of the United States being made subservient to the production of war material on the great- est possible scale, whereby the United States became “militarized.” The note proceeds. “According to par- SERVIA SAID 10 HAVE ULTIMATUM FROM BULGARIA Sofia Report to Berlin Says En- tente Diplomats Are Pre- paring to Depart.

The report sent by Field Marshal French, the British commander, last night, was as follows: “There has been severe fighting to- day on the ground won by us yesterday, the enemy making determined counter- attacks east and northeast of Loos. The result of this fighting is that, except just north of Loos, we hold all the ground gained yesterday, including the whole of Loos itself. “This evening we retook the quarries northwest of Hulluch, which we rewon and lost yesterday. “We have in this fighting drawn in the enemy's reserves, enabling the French on our right to make further progress. The number of prisoners col- lected after yesterday’s fighting amount- ed to 2600. Nine guns have been taken and a considerable number of machine guns. “Our aeroplanes bombarded and de- railed a train near Loffres, east of Doual, and another which was full of troops at Rohult, near St. Amand. The Valenciennes station also was bombard- ed.”’ The report from Gen. French, contain- ing the first word of allied successes, given out earlier yesterday, said: “Saturday morning we attacked the enemy south of La Bassee Canal to the east of Grenay and Vermelles. We cap- tured his trenches on a front of over five miles, penetrating his lines in some places for a distance of 4000 yards. “We captured the western outskirts of Hulluch, the village ot Loos and the mining works around it, and Hill 70. “Other attacks were made to the north of La Bassee Canal, which drew a strong reserve of the enemy toward the point of the line, where hard fighting occurred throughout the day, with varying success. At nightfall our troops north of the canal occupied their posi- tions of the morning. “We made another attack near Hooge on either side of the Menin road. “An attack north of the road succeed- ed in occupying Bellewaarde farm and ridge, but this subsequently was re- taken by the enemy. “In the attacks to the south of. the road we gained 600 yards of the enemy’s trench and we concentrated the ground won.” Italy Said te Be Ready to Send Troops to New Fields.

The lawyer, Leslie J. Taylor, said that in the Wottowa case the onlv dispute was about the arrangements to quiet the title of the land in dis- pute. Ridgly and Mrs. Long had of- fered to arrange to do so, he gaid, but wanted Wottowa to pay part of the expense and he had failed to do s0. As to the Paynter transaction, Tay- Jor said his cli¢énts would seek to show that instead of them owing the former Senator anything, he owed the~ $15,000. Taylor intimated he ex- pected to ask for changes of venue ir all the cases as they come up to- morrow. Former Senator Paynter was in St. Louis this morning, but he declined to discuss the litigation, referring in- quirers to the court records for in- formation. Long could not be reached at his hotel for a statement. Mrs. Ridgly departed hastily Saturday night for Chicago. Saturday night Long told a reporter that the Wottowa transaction was made through the Orah Land and Mining Co., of which he said he and Mrs. Ridgly were small stockholders and James K. Cochran was president. Cochran, it was learned, is a wealthy bachelor farmer at Assumption. He is known to have been heavily interested financially with Mrs.*Ridgly and her father, James H. Downs. A Taylorville banker who asked that his name be withheld said the talk in business cir- cles in his own town were that the joint interests of Cochran, Downs and Mrs. Ridgly would run well up to $175,000. CUNARDER TRANSYLVANIA SAID TO HAVE BEEN TRANSPORT SUNK NEW YORK, Sept. 27.—According to private advices received here, the large British transport reported by wireless from Berlin, on Sept. 21, to have been sunk off the Island of Crete, in the Mediterranean, by a German submarine, was the Cunarder Transylvania. This big liner, a 14,000-ton vessel, 548 feet long, had been chartered by the British. Gavernment to carry troops to the Dardanelles. She was built only two years ago at Greenock.

The above-mei'- tioned fait nouveau should be sufficient reason for altering the existing practice of the United States in regard to its subservence to neutrality.’’ The suggestion of the Austro-Hun- garian Government on the question of the supply of war materials was in- tended to prove that it is in the power of the United States to open the way for commerce with central Powers, be- cause this possibility has been preveni- ed by the Entente Powers by measures which even the Government of _ the United States regards as illegal. The Boer War Comparison. “The reference by the United States to the Boer War is less apposite,’’ the note says, “since at that time England did not prohibit commerce and there- fore there was no question of the com- mercializatign of South Africa.’’ Washington Officials Regard Austrian Arms Controversy as Closed. WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.—The repiy of Austria-Hungary to the American note on shipment of munitions has not reached here. Officials manifest little interest in the continuation by Austria of the controversy, the view being hell that, so far as the United States is concerned, the incident is closed. It was recalled that Dr. Constantin Dumba, the Austrian Ambassador, had advised his Foreign Office that further exchange of notes on the subject would be futile, because of the absolute deter- mination of President Wilson not t» alter the position he had taken. Dr. Dumba’s letter of advice never reached the Austrian Foreign Office, be- ing intercepted when his messenger. James F. J. Archibald, was arrested in England.

Radoslavoff, .n an intérview with the Sofia correspond- ent of the Berlin Tagesblatt, reiterate] this statement; but it is noteworthy that, while he said the measure was not directed against Greece or Rumania, he omitted Servia, attacks upon which State have been considered to be tiie intention of the Bulgarian Governmen: in their effort to regain Macedonia. Such an attack, it is pointed out, would bring Greece to the side of her ally, and, as in the last Balkan war, Greece, Servia and possibly Rumaaia would be found opposed to Bulgaria. Rumania already has mobilized and Greece is taking similar action. Tho conclusion has been drawn that they at least fear that Bulgaria has agzgres- sive designs, if not against Greece, then against Servia. King Constantine and the Greek Pres. mier, M. Venizelos, apparently have entirely composed the differences which led to their separation when the Pre- mier, early in the war, wished to join the allies against Turkey. Bulgaria Still Negotiating, The whole matter may yet be smoothed over, as Bulgaria is continu- ing her negotiations with the Entente Powers—the Bulgarian Minister at Petrograd having had a long conference with the Russian Foreign Minister M. Sazonoff, while the Ministers at other capitals insist that the Bulgarians would not fight against their old _ friends. Great Britain and Russia. On the other hand, the Austro-Ger- man offensive against Servia, which seems to have been delayed, might ligh: the torch which would set the whole Balkans aflame. The note from Bulgaria to the Powers is virtually the same as the semi-offi- cial statement issyed at Sofia, Sept. 23, which said that the “entry of Bulgaria into a state Of armed neutrality is ex- plained by changes which recently oc-. curred in the political situation’’ and ‘that Bulgaria has not the slightest aggressive intention, but is firmly re- solved to be fully armed to defend her rights and independence.” Dr. Ghenadieff, ex-Bulgarian Foreign Minister,- whose inclusion in the Sofia Cabinet is reported to be a possibility, has been known lately for his pro-en tente views, and it is believed here .~..«t, unless he was certain of the Govern- ment continuing its good relations with the entente Powers, he would not have assured it of his support. “Preventive Measures.” A dispatch from Athens to the Ex- change Telegraph Co. says: “The Bulgarian inister has declared that the mobilization of the Bulgarian army was not directed toward any at- tack against Greece or Servia, but that it constitutes preventive measures in case Austro-German troops should ad- vance as far as Vidin.” Vidin is a fortified town of Bulgaria on the wanube, low miles southeast of Belgrade, Servia. It would be the first Belgrade, Servia. It is an em- porium of the Austrian commerce with the Black Sea. It would be the first Bulgarian town to be reached by the Austro-German forces should the pre- dicted Teutonic advance toward Con- stantinople in aid of the Turks succeed in crossing the 36-mile strip of territory in the northeastern corner of Servia.

Katy President _ Is Appointed as Receiver for Road Continued From Page One. financial conditions growing out cf the European war,” all plans for re- financing have failed, and the road is and will be unable to pay the notes now overdue, and others as they ma- ture, The road’s outstanding floating in- debtedness is stated as $2,500,000, for ma- terials and supplies, and the road is ceclared to be in arrears on its vouchers to the amount of $1,000,000. Creditors, it is stated, are pressing for payment, but the road is without means to effect a lonn, and has no collateral available. pNote holders and other creditors are pressing for settlement, it is stated, and suits and levies have threatened the dis- integration of the system. The Hussey suit is similar, except for the larger amount, and has the same friendly aspect. Judges Adams and Dyer consolidated the two proceedings as a preliminary to appointing the re- ceiver. 1 Mrs. Sarah Pins, who disappeared Sept. 17, following the arrest of Dr. Emory Lanphear cf 6823 Scanlan ave- nue. at whose home she had been liv- ing, was arrested today in the corri- dor of the Municipal Courts Building as she was talking with Grant Gillespie ard John Gernez, attorneys for Lat- thear, and Mis~ Anna Bernd, charged with misconduc’. whose cases were set for trial in Judge Miller’s division of the Court of Crimiral Correction. After she had been locked up the at- torneys asked for a continuance of the cases against Lanphear and Miss Bernd and Judge Miller reset them for Oct. u. The arrest was made on the supposi- tion that Mrs. Pins was wanted by the United States Department of Justice, to be questioned concerning Dr. Lanphear, but it developed afterward that the United States authorities did not want her and that she gave herself up last Thursday at the Sheriff's office and was released on $200 bond. She was at the Municipal: Courts Building for arraign- ment when arrested. The detective bureau had not been in- formed that she was not wanted, or that she had appeared and given bond. The lawyers procested against Mrs. Pins’ arrést without a Warrant and at- tempted to intervene when ‘the detec: t'ves started with the woman for the Central District Pclice Station. Mrs. Pins resisted and Gernez became threat- ering, but subsided when the detectives told him that if he spoke another word re, too, would be arrested. At the station Mrs. Pins refused to give the desk Sergeatn any information about herself. She was booked on ‘n- fcrmation furnished by the detectives. Several attempts were made to pho- tograph Mrs. Pins, but she distorted her features each time. After her Ber- tillon measurements had been taken. she was returned to the outer office, where Gillespie was waiting for her. She wore no hat. She told him it had been taken from her and torn up. The hat.was found in the Bertillon room, badly dam- aged. The detectives said Mrs. Pins tore it herself. She said she had been slapped by the detectives. They denied slapping her, and George E. Baker, the photographer, said she slapped him. She Plan for Offices in Kansas. In its answers to the receivership suits the Katy Raltlroad admitted the allegations and joined in the prayer tor receivership. The answers set forth that the company believes this is its duty and in the interest of its stock- nolders and creditors. In agreeing to the receivership the answers specify “upon condition that the Court will order any receiver appointed to fully carry out the decree of the District Court of Montgomery County, Kan., in a suit by the State of Kansas to compel compli- ance by it of certain statutes of that State with respect to the maintenance of “a general office, shops and corporate records there.” This refers to the ““Katy’s” plan, under consideration, to establish general offices at Parsons, Kan. The answer further asks that the re- ceiver preserve the unity of the de- ‘endant’s system of railroads and pro- tect and preserve the corporate fran- chises, privileges and property, preserve the corporate existence and protect and preserve its railroads and property, real and personal, from being sacrificed un- der any proceedings which can or may be taken.

By Associated Press, NEW YORK, Sept. 77. — Having reached a virtual agreement with back- ers of the Eastern section of the coun- try over the details of the proposed half-billion dollar credit loan to Great Britain and France, members of the An- glo-French Financial Commission, ac- companied by Thomas W. Lamont of the firm of J. P. Morgan & Co., departed this afternoon for Chicago. There they will confer not only with the leading bankers of Chicago, but, it is expected, with those of St. Louis, St. Paul and others of the West and Northwest. Lord Reading, chairman of the com- mission, heads the party, which expects to remain in Chicago several days, re- turning the latter part of this week. Basil B.

LOUIS POST-DISPATCH i" a ili a 35 ile ie , _— MONDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 27, 1915 “— ~ Se ea It was learned by a Post-Dispatch the grand jury the the whose estab- reporter today that would inquire, this week, into amount of insurance carried by Nixon-Jones Printing Co., lishment at 215 Pine street was damaged by a mysterious fire on the night of Sept. 4. The finding of boxes and bar- rels of gasoline in the place, after the fire, caused the polic@ and fire depart- ment officials to consider the fire an incendiary one. Circuit Attorney Harvey, it’ was learned, has been informed that the printing plant carried $62,000 insurance, of which $30,000 had been taken out since July 1. The officials of the printing company have stated that the equipment was in- creased in the last few months, and the grand jury, it is said, will inquire into this phase of the matter. The cases of Herbert O. Baker, con- fegsed arson promoter; Julius R. Bersch, vice president of an insurance firm, and Harold G. Gilmore, head of the burned- out’ Gilmore-Bonfig Decorating Co., all charged in informations with arson in ihe third degree, were called for prelim- inary hearing this morning in Judge Clark’s division of the Court of Crimi- nal Correction. On the request of Cir- cuit Attorney Harvey, presented through Assistant Circuit Attorney Fitz- gerald, the cases were continued until Oct. 6. Grand Jury Report Saturday. Fitzgerald stated in court that the grand jury would make its report Sat- urday morning. At that time, it is now definitely known, Bersch, Gilmore, Harry Imel, Gilmore’s. secretary, and Edward Milner, or Ben Miller, ‘*‘torch’’ suspect, will be indicted on arson charges in connection with the burning of the Gilmore place, 4455 Olive street, July 24 last. Baker will not be indicted by this grand jury, as he has testified before it, but the information tharging him with arson will still be held over him, and a later grand jur@: may indict him. Whether he finally obtains len- iency, it is understood, will depend on the frankness and fullness with which he testifies. The only doubt remaining as to the Bersch, Gilmore and Milner indictments is the degree of arson which will be charged. It is possible that the charge will be arson in the second degree. This is arson which endangers human lives in an adjoining building, and the fact that a sleeping room adjoined the Gil- more place may make it possible to bring such a charge. Arson in the third degree is setting fire to a building with- out immediate danger to human life. The lowest punishment for second-de- gree arson is three years in the peniten- tiary, while the lowest punishment for third-degree arson is 12 months in jail. No maximum is set for either, and life imprisonment can be inflicted at the jury’s discretion. Fire Occurred in Afternoon, From the fact that the Gilmore fire occurred in the afternoon, the element fof danger to human lifg¢ may not prove strong enough to warrant a second- degree charge. in‘ the case of the arson plot at the Christen bellows factory, 121 Dock street, in which Joseph C. Christen helped the authorities to trap Baker and the ‘‘ttorch”’’ suspects Sept. 11, indictments also will be returned. Bersch and the four “‘torch’’ suspects will be indicted in this case, it is believed, on third- degree arson charges. Your chance to see the exposition at San Francisco!

Dutton, secretary of the Committee on Armenian Atrocities, which was formed for the purpose of investigating the facts regarding the massacre and its relation to American interests and also to ascertain whether anything can be done to relieve the sit- uation. The statement says: . “Evidence seems to prove that prob- ably 600,000 Armenians already have been murdered or forced to the desert, where only death awaits them unless now at the height of its grewsome fury. “In view of the great influence which Germeny and Austria exerciss over their ally, the American peuple vannot fail to hold them morally responsible if these atrocities are permitted to con- tinue.”’ a \ Reports of Atrocities “Pure Inven- . tions,” Bernstorff Says.

Misses Loretta and Katharine Henne- kes of~1852A North Market street, Miss Theresa Schulte of 1931 Warren street and Mrs. J. B. Hennekes of 2224 College avenue, who walked 115 miles from St. Louis to the Illinois’ State Fair at Springfield in five days, are so enthus - astic over their achievement that they are already planning a longer trip for next summer, Mrs. Hennekes, who chaperoned the party, and Miss Schulte and Miss Kath- arine Hennekes, returned to St. Louis last night by rail. Miss Loretta Hen- nekes will remain in Springfield a week visiting relatives. - The young women are enthusiastic walkers and during the summer took and other nearby towns. Before they started to Springfield they arranged their schedule. They would start at 6 each morning and walk until 9, rest half an hour, walk until 12, rest until 1, walk until 3, rest until 3:30 and walk until 6. They observed the scnedule ex- cept on the second day, when rain com- pelled them to take shelter at a farne house for four hours. Showed Them Way to Car. They left St. —ouis on Sunday morn- ing, Sept. 19. At Granite City tiuey asked a switchmen the way to Ed- wardsville, and he told them to go two blocks ‘‘eover that way,’’ where they wouid be able to catch ‘an interurban car. His amazement was great when they told him they were not aiming to catch an interurban car, but to walk to Springfiel@#, and he expressed the candid opinion that they were crazy. They reached Edwardsville that night and stayed at a hotel. At 8 o’clock Monday morning the rain began and they stayed under shelter until noon. On Tuesday they made their record “tramp,” covering 27 4miles, from Staunton to Carlinville. They cov- cred 10 miles in the fore- noon and 17 miles in the afternoon. They made their fastest time on Thursday, covering the 23 miles from ayer to Springfield in nine hours. They left Thayer at 6 o’clock and reached Spring- field at 3:15.

The thing that struck them as strange was the difficulty they had in obtaining fresh milk. They had supposed that fresh milk was one thing that the farmers had an abundance of, but they found out that most of it was shipped to the city and that on some farms condensed milk was used. On Thursday they ate nothing for dinner but half a cake of milk choco- late each. Farmers were kind to them niong the way, fut frankly amused at the idea of four young women un- dertaking to walk 115 miles. They re- —— — ceived many offers of a “lift’’ by a ge drivers of wagons and automobiles, but refused them all. In Springfield they were guests of Mrs. J. T.

EASY WAY TO MAKE HAIR ATTRACTIVE Ladies who find trouble in properly; or attractively arranging and dress- ing their hair should try using a lit- tle Parisian Sage twice daily for a while and note the remarkable im- provement. Parisian Sage, which can be obtained from Wolff-Wilson Drug Co., of any drug _ counter, makes the hair soft, lustrous, fluffy and wavy, takes out the dull, lifeless appearance, dissolves the dandruff and stimulates the hair roots into healthy normal action. Instead of merely sprinkling the hair, it should be rubbed right into the scalp with the finger tips. Parisian Sage is a delightful treatment for both hair and scalp, cannot possibly injure the hair and is very inexpensive.

BIG PARADE WEDNESDAY Veterans to March Before Presi-! dent Over Route They Fol- lowed in 1865. By Asenciated . WASHINGT Sept. 27.—The forty- ninth annual reunion of the Grand Army of the Republic began here to- day with thousands of veterans of the Civil War participating. The celebration, which will continue for a weel: will be featured by a pro- cession of the survivors of the conquer- ing army from the capitol to the White House in commemoration of the grand review which marked the close of the Civil War. Extraordinary preparations have been made for the event, which promised to rival] presidential inaugurations in in- terest and display. Plans have been perfected for entertaining 100,000 visitors. The national capital itself is in gala attire. All public buildings including the White House and the capitol and bus'ness houses along Pennsylvania av- enue, where the grand review is to take place, are draped in the national colors. Press. ON, Headquarters Opened. Veterans and visitors alike contin- ued to arrive today, each incoming train bearing its full quota. Most of them were from the East, states easier of access to Washington. Commander in Chief Palmer was among the arrivals. The day’s ceremonies began with the formal *opening by Commander Palmer of Camp Emery, official quarters of the veterans, in the old census build- ing, near the Capitol, and the welcom- ins by the Commander and his staff of Lieutenant-General Nelson A. Miles, re- tired, who is to be the Grand Marshal of the parade next Wednesday. This was the only formal ceremony held, the day being devoted largely to the informal reception of incoming dele- gations. The program for the afternoon called for a patriotic concert by the United States marine band at the Pension Building, which is to be used as a branch headquarters. 12 War Vessels at Anchor. Beginning tonight and _ continuing throughout the week, the forts around Washington will be illuminated by the Veterans’ Signal Corps Association. Twelve war vessels of the United States navy lay:at anchor in the Poto- mac River here today for the inspec- tion of the veterans. Naval officers will give daily demomstrations for the in- struction of visftors. Thirty thousand veterans are expected to participate in the grand review Wednesday. President Wilson will re- view the procession from a grand stand in front of the White House, where President Johnson stood in 186 to re- view the conquering army of the North.

If recovery of the sum lost to the city, estimated by some as high as $750,000, is doubtful, there is no doubt as to what ought to be done to wake up this office, introduce some real Effi- ciency Board efficiency and prevent fatuous blundering of the sort in the future. There is no uncertainty as to what would hap- pen to employes guilty of blundering on such a scale in private business. If the city’s affairs are to be put on a strict business basis, the city should pursue the course private business would pursue. Efficiency must be the test of retention in office as well as appointment to office. Prompt, vigorous action will prevent this costly misfeasance in the water office from being ac- cepted by citizens generally as representative of the efficiency prevailing in municipal offices gen- erally. at —— NOW FOR CHILD SHOWS.

Austria is still hammering on the question of our selling munitions of war to the entente ‘Powers. In the second note on the subject the Government is trying to find differences in the sale of arms by neutrals to belligerents now and the fruits of their soil as well as their toil, time, energies, life. They pay for the wars their Gov- ernments make not only with hardship but with enslavement. Deprivation and starvation are part of the price of war the innocents must pay. Bankruptcy, loss af a people’s savings, destruc- tion of industrial capital, waste of facilities, devastation, are measured in human toil and in’ human suffering. Governments borrow lightly, and people pay heavily. What benefits are the people themselves, who are paying for this war, going to receive from their investment? They are all stupid'!y paying and “going it blind.” Wars involve contests between peoples as to who shall pay the more. Thus the victors may be the greater losers. With exports likely to exceed imports by over two billions, United States weight in the trade talance counts for something this year. = = — a NEW CENSUS FIGURES.

Selected and TirnelyTopics Fiction | a Peachblow Vase The story of a clever at- tempt at swindle which is frustrated by the courage of a porcelain expert. By Gerald Fyce. BE old pawnbroker looked in as- tonishment at the object which was set down upon the counter be- fore hig eyes. “A peachblow vase only 15 inches high,” said the well-dressed man who had come into the shop. “One of the only pair in existence, and valued offi- cially by the American museum at $40,- 000 apiece.”’ “How much do you want on it?’ in- «quired the pawnbroker, more from force of habit than anything else. “Two thousand dollars,’’ answered the man. All the while he cane his hands care- fully about the precious object, resting in its velvet case. The pawnbroker stared at it. It was worth its weight in gold, and something more. Jones liad the only pawnshop which was also an art museum. He had handled half the private objects of virtue in collec- tions, perhaps. None knew but he how often the rich man needs @ large loan. Tie was cognizant with the peachblow vases, and he had heard of this unique pair, one of which rested {in the Amer- jean mukeum, the other being the prop- erty of some unknown European. “Of coursé, you understand I must have an expert’’—— he began. “Quite so,” answered the man. “Oblige me by signing this receipt and liability, and I will be back in a week.” Jones signed. The deal would mean only @ small sum, but his curiosity was ihoroughly aroused. With trembling fingers he locked away the trophy in his safe. Then he telephoned Smith, the famous expert in porcelains. ‘The Expert Arrives. and looked the vase over. “It’s the most brazen imposture lave ever met,” he said quietly. “It’s a fake, Mr. Smith?” “Not at all. It’s a vase from the museum. Stolen, of course, and no doubt the authorities are keeping it dark while they hunt down the thief. ru telephone the curator at once. By the way, was the man who brought you .this a tallish man with a slight cast. ‘in one eye?” “Yes,” said the pawnbroker. “Why?” “He’s the fellow that foisted the spurious Botticelli on old Campion last year. Painted it himself, and it took a microscopic knowledge of the origi- nal to enable me to detect that a cer- T ‘expert arrived that afternoon tain sinew of the hand, which Botti- celli always gets wrong, was right in the picture. Cleverest tiilef in Eu- rope. Hello! Give me the museum, please.”’ Five minutes later he looked up at Jones in amazement. “The museum people laughed at me,” he said. The vase is there, right where it has always been, in a special case, Let me look at that again, please, ani then I'll go up there.”’ He inspected the vase, jotted down some notes, and took his departure, He returned late at night, bewildered. “The peachblow is in the museum,”’ he said. “I saw it with my own eyes. It's the genuine peachblow. Jones, I believe if you look in your safe you’ll find the vase missing.’’ But it Wasn't fhissing. It remained in the safe, shining with all its deli- cate transparency of pink and white. “Lll come tomorrow and go over it inch by inch,” said the expert. To the Museum Once More. 4 did so and pronounced the vase } genuine. “It's a twin brother of the museum one,” he said. “The Same man Made both in the time of the Ming dynasty. It’s genuine—I guar- antee that.- But I'm going to see the one in the museum once more.” However, the curator refused to let him handle the museum vase. He was: suspicious of the critic’s eagerness, and thought that he meant to decry the au- thenticity of the famous vase, for which the museum had paid forty thousand a year before. Besides, he was not willing to risk the breakage of $40,000 worth of porcelain by an unfortunate slip of the expert’s hand. Smith, standing beside the case, ex- amined the vase. It stood in a case similar to that tn which its fellow re- posed in the pawnbroker's safe, of red leather, lined with velvet and open at the front. He compared it with. his otes with the utmost care. He sie hardly a variation. And wet there was undoubtedly ithe. slightest variation —just enough to convince that the tw - Vases were indubitably two “I guarantee that the vase in voor pemmenaton is genuine,”’. he told the pawnbroker. “But I’m suspicious. If that fellow is the one who played that trick on old Campion there's something strange about it.” Once more he went to the curator. “He almost went down on his knees to him, but the curator was adamant. He refused in the strongest terms to allow anybody to handle the peachblow vase. “IT guess I've done all that is possible,” Smith said to the pawnbroker. ._‘‘Now it’s up to you.” “I don’t care about the money,” said Jones, “But I mean to have possession of that vase for a few weeks before | die.” by the stranger for his return : Hee. the day before that se: Joties went down to his shop to | find the safe drilled open and the vase - Variety a Delightful Thing in Women’s Attire, but Not When Purchased at the Expense of Smart- ness. Tr be economical the wardrobe must be chosen from among the more, advanced models of the np neat et eh, the thoughtless or uninitiated this may suggest unjustified expense, since ad- vance ready-made models are high in price. But in reality4t is the most far- sighted economy, for the reason that th models remain in style longer and fre- quently can be remade to better advan- tage. It is also wise to buy good mate- rials, good linings and good trimmings, and to sacrifice, if need be, quantity rather than quality; that is, to have fewer dresses, but to have those few good and of the kind really required by the life which is led. This is a doctrine often preached, and almost ax often believed in, but seldom followed. Women with the most lim- ited incomes often have a closet full of more or less undesirable dresses, bureau drawers full of blouses, with scarcely a good one among them; vari- ous hats in rather indifferent models, and shoes and slippers out of shape be- cause they were not good originally. It is just these women who “have nothing to wear,” anc ‘ho the day before they start on an unexpected trip or need something to wear for an especially nice occasion, rush madly about to “buy something,’ and add one more nearly good costume to an already poorly se- lected wardrobe. ARIETY is of course a delightful V thing, but not when it is ob- tained at,the expense of smart- ness. One needs at least two afternoon froqks for the winter wardrobe, and they should be entirely different in character. For the dressier model nothing could be prettier than a com- bination of velvet and chiffon. Bor- deaux red, corbeau blue and brilliant Garibaldi red will bé favorite colors. Shown here is an attractive design today for a combination of materials. The model at the right suggests the use of the materifils mentioned, pre- senting an unusual effect. A _ skirt of velvet, full and circular, disre- gards all precedents of being hung from the belt, from a hip yoke, or some such well-known way, and shapes itself into six narrow straps at the top. By *these the skirt is suspended from the belt, and the U shaped in- tervals between the straps are excel- lent excuses for the introduction of soft chiffon in self color. A _ full blouse of the chiffon is partially hid- we Buying First and Best Models the Cheapest ————oooOoloeeeeeeeeeeoo* — é ‘* v 2 >, g, 4 >. front is left filmy and transparent, also the sleeves of chiffon are allowed to drop in their fullness from the top, put under a tiny cap which is of chiffon, and a part of the waist yoke. A dainty collar of lace, and cuffs of the same, are refreshing details. den under a little bolero of velvet, but in a most satisfactory manner. The Beads are going to be used a great deal for trimming purposes, and on eee velvet or satin or silk are delightful for afternoon frocks. At the left is pictured an effective use of them, which in combination with a velvet belt and velvet cuffs and tiny collar, form a most unusual trimming. Soft taffeta for this model in dark blue would make a frock Voth practical and dressy. Since his pleas to the cur@tor a guard had unostentatiously been stationed be- fore the peachblow vase in the museum The guard did not know Smith. He watched with only languid interest tlie well-dressed, ugobtrusive man who was looking at the peachblow. Suddenly Smith raised his arm. There was th sound of splintering glass. An inscart later the famous peachblow vase lay shattered into a hundred pieces on the floor. ‘Now send for the curator, expert, making no resistance. Less than 10 minutes later the curator arrived. When he saw Smith he toe his hair; he shook his fist in Smith's face. “T’'ll have you sent up for life this!” he bawled. “TIT took a big Smith. blow.” ’” said the for chance,” answered: “But take a look at your peach tions. Something in Smith’s face made him ‘obey. Gingerly he picked up one fragment. He was hand- ling common earthenware, covered with a thin, skillfully painted canvas. “Yes, it was a chance,’ said Smith to the dumfounded curator. ‘‘The man is the most skillful copyist in Europe. J shouldn’t wonder if you have been ne- gotiating for the companion peachblow.”’ “Why, we have almost arranged to ze it for thirty thousand,’’ shouted the other. “Yes.

I am from the sunny lowlands, where the sun always shines and snow never falls, but I have traveled long to find your lodge, Snow Bird.” So the girl took him by the hand and led him to where her father sat in the shade of a maple smoking his pipe, with his robes wrapped about him, The young Indian stepped for- ward proudly and lay at the old man’s feet the bundle of sugar cane. “T have heard of your daughter’s beauty and have come from the land of flowers to ask for her hand,” he said, ‘‘and from our fields of eternal sunshine I, who am called the Panther at home, have brought you a gift. It is sugar cane. Perhaps your people may be able to grow it and thus obtain a great blessing.’’ HE old chief rose in anger. “Dod 4 you dare ask for the hand of my daughter?’ he cried, with flash- ing eyes. “‘Never! How dare you bring me such sticks? See, I throw them to the earth to be trod under the feet of children,’’ and he scattered the canes over the ground beneath the trees. Pan- ther leaped forward, and would have struck Black Beat, but Snow Bird stood between the two men. “Gol” she cried. ‘Go back to your people. But come again in a year. Per hans the Great Spirit may bless u3 _ SE ee SR , [ved tn of years ago there | A. Walker. . then.” Black Bear heard her words. ‘*Yes,”" he cried with an angry laugh, “come again in a year, and if by then these trees bear sugar, you may have my daught-.r as a bride.”’ Now, it happened that some’ of the wood nymphs heard what had been said, and as they were all fond of the gentle Indian girl and felt sorry for her, they at once set to work to cary out the very idea Black Bear had sug- gested. They ground the cane softly into the sod and in the spring its sweet- ness flowed up into the maple trees in a sweet sap. But no one knew it. A year had passed and Snow Bird be- gan to wonder if Panther would return. One afternoon she started in haste to get water from the spring, but on her way noticéd sap flowing from a maple tree near the path, so she filled the bucket and put it on the fire. RESENTLY she heard a noise, and there in the door stood Panther holding out his arms to 'hér. They stood and talked, while the pot on the| fire boiled and boiled. Then suddenly old Black Bear came down the path. “Oh, you here?” he cried angrily. ‘‘Leave! You remember what I said last year.”” The pot boiled over and Snow Bird ran to lift it from the fire. In doing so she spilt some of its contents on her hand and quickly put her hand in her mouth—the stuff tasted sweet like sugar.”’ “Stop, father!” she cried quickly. ‘What you wished has come to pass, for the ‘maples are giving us sugar.’’ Then Bear and Panther tasted of the delicious syrup, and all the other In- Gians learned ‘to draw the sweet juice from the trees. So Bear kept his word, and the -girl was wedded to Panther in the shade of the very maple tree from which she had drawn the first bucket of its sweet sap.

Arbuthnot was born jin 1667 in Scotland and died in 17%. The sketch he wrote dealt with the political affairs of Europe at the time. The countries were made to ap- pear as if they were men and women. In Arbuthnot’s sketch England was John Bull and Queen Anne was Mrs. Bull Scotland was John Bull's sister Peg. England, in this character, ap- peared good natured, but not without faults. As roast beef and plum pudding are the national dishes, the name of Bull answered very well.

Prize lists for 146 competitions were issued to 5000 owners of show horses throughout the United States. The number of classes to be judged is larger then the last exhibition, and with one exception, the largest since the first horse show was given in is is due to the doubling of the number of saddle classes, the new departure of separation competitions for long-tailed horses of the thoroughbred type and docked horses of the New York riding school type. This innovation promises to be one of the features of the show. A number of om prizes have been add- t. or the first time a woman to become one of the judges.

Following the previous advance this month of 85 to points, prices today made a further gain of 24 to 49 points, representing an advance of over a cent a pound 1.

NEW YORK, Sept. 27.—The Even- ing Post, in its copyrighted financial review today, says: “In view of the dondition of specu- lative excitement with which last week ended on the Stock Exchange, the renewed and heavy outside buy- ing which converged on this morn- $ market was not especially sur- pris sing.

This is always a possibility which appeals to Wall street, especially in its present mood. How far the resumption of. the of- fensive on a large scale by the French and English armies had definite ef- fect in aos the ideas of specula- iorg for the ris so clear. “A market which did not decline on the German successes in Russia would perhaps not logically advance on news of German reverses in the west. Furthermore, the news from the western front is by no means such as to warrant new conjectures as to the duration of the war. “Still it was a new and striking devel- opment in the situation; it was far from unpalatable to the financial community as a whole, and it may, therefore, rea- sonably be included as one of the influ- ences of the day. “Ope ge rices showed, clearly on Soe ot outside orders ac- ated b¥ “Mission houses over of % to 1 point on ‘the flxet transactions were very general. Some se the. industrials scored much larger gains; Baldwin Locomotive shares, “—- instance, rising 5 points at the start, and General Motors 6%. From this early higher level there were im- media rther advances in the indus- trial shares, several of which went 3 to 10 points further up in the next two or three hours. It was noteworthy, however, that the railway shares, which easily held the first place in Saturday’s advances, all but ceased to move today. Some of them lost ground slightly, all were exception- ally quiet, in poutrast with the war in- als. This may no doubt have re- flected doubt as to whether a further rise might not provoke Euro ~ eg liquida- tion. ut on the other hand, it suggest- the possibility that the week-end ae in the railway shares may have been more artificial than it seemed —@ maneuver, perhaps, of the strategy of professional spgculators. Loan Not a Factor. “Not eck. attention was paid by Wall I ap (oe to the day’s reports regard- ing the Anglo-French loan negotiations. In the usually best-inform circles, ‘however, it was declared that the suc- cess of the underwriting, so far as the New York market, is concerned, was assured.

AY, did y’ ever blow yourself to a S good think on what a diff’rence just a few blocks make? Did y’? Well, I did, abqut th’ seckind day o’ my new job, when 1 had time to set down én” rest my hands and face an’ git edu- cated to how ign’runt I'd been, an’ me workin’ two solid years within three vilocks of this place! Ign’runt! Say, if a baseball magnate would lasso some rube pitcher down in th’ Cubean League an’ blindfold him, an’ jug him nort’, an’ turn him loose in th’ ball park to pitch, he woulden’ be any more ign’runt o’ where he was and what the fans was howlin’ at him than I was with the first fillum or two they run off cn me down there in the Street. It wasen’ that I diden’ know what was goin’ on, but ‘twas th’ langwidge! _I don’t mean th’ langwidge y’d hear in th’ Trade Room whin they was all try- in’ to holler each other down, an’ yellin’ “Buy me a hundred Mo Pacs at th’ mar- kit!” or some o’ th’ fellers at th’ tick- er or th’ phome or th’ blackboard would yowl out: “Copper off an eighth!’’ or, “A thougand Steel at a quarter up!”’ That was stock markit talk, they put me wise, an’ I could twig it all right, a couple o’ bites at a time. But when I'd go to ast anybody about sumpin’ I diden’ quite understand, they woulden’ understand even what I was astin’ ‘em. ‘Lissen, Smithy!’ I says to one o’ th’ other young fellers. ‘Come here,’ I says, “an’ pour me a couple o’ earfuls. When dem gazabos in th’ dangerous ward,” I says, “starts hollerin’ their bellows out, what's the reason th ‘flat- ties don’t burst in an’ cop th’ whole shenanigan off to th’ booby hatch?’ I says. An’ would y’ believe it, all he done was look at me like as if I'd passed him some Yiddish. Same way with all th’ empresses they *had ’round there doin’ th’ stenoggin’. “Here, William,’ says Mister Syl- vester, the manager, one day, slippin’ me some writin’, “take this in to Miss Mugratroyd, an’ tell her to make a copy and three carbons of it, as promptly as ble.” So I butts into th’ room where all th’ doll-babies is, an’ tackles the one he sent me to. | “Here, youse,”’ I says, “Mister Syl- vester says fer youse to kick th’ keys over this novel, an’ slip in three extry cheaters!”’ I says. An’ as straight as I’m standin’ here, if she diden’ look like as if nothin’ would save her but th’ pulmoter! William Can’t Understand Why He Cannot Gamble N’ her gettin’ twinty a week, they told me, for stenoggin’, an’ could- eh’ understand reg’!ar talk like t! Why, Ethel, me old Boss’ ribbon- rupper, at half the money, woul)d of et it up! An’ I had to remember th’ exact words Mister Sylvester had given me before I could get it through that dame’s marble brow! . It's funny, though, the way you’l! fall in with th’ habits o’ th’ bunch you're flung up against, an’ anybody’ll notice from fiow on I begun,talkin’ their way mysedf. My mother got wise to me th’ first’ night I come home. ; pass me th’ cream,” I says to her at supper. ‘Th’ which?’ she says. ‘Th’ lad’s sick,’’ says me father, lookin’ at me. “I'm not,” I says, ‘I’m only tryin’ to be perlite an’ decint like all of us brokers is down th’ Street!’ T got wise to all the other gags, too— openin’ th’ paper to th’ financial page when I rode down in th’ cars in th’ mornin’, an’ Tettin’ out a “Merciful heavens!” or ‘‘Fine! fine!” whin I seen it, so’s thim ridin’ next me would think T da couple o’ millions in th’ mar- ket, anyway, though between you an’ me, I coulden’ make any more out of :t ot first than if it had been the directions fer knittin’ a tidy. But they was a couple o’ things I diden’ get wise to fer quite a while. One Was th’ reason why they was always hollerin’ “‘Don’'t gamble,’’ ‘round th’ of- fice. First I got it from Mister Syltves- ter( th’ manager, an’ then one day when “Slipped a nickel out o’ me kick an’ [6id Wiggins I'd match him for it, I thought he was going to pass away on th’ spot. “Put it up,’’ he says, lookin’ ‘round . “Don't you know you'll be fired if they catch you gt it, or any sort of gemblin’?” “But why?"!I says. “Ain't ali those people ‘roun’ here in th’ Trade Room gamblin’ on th’ stock markit?” “Of course not,” he says, ‘‘they’re spec- Wiatin’.” “All right.” I says, ‘“‘let’s secuiate a little wid a couple o’ nick- *." But he ducks out of the room as _ mt afraid to be soon with me. en another day I seen a cop chase tebe te a bunch o' mescsenger boys that’s shootin’ the bones in a doorway, an’ when I gave him the’ laugh he says: * They're gamblin,’ an’ thav’e one thing 3 ( ands stand for on my beat!’ An’ his _ beat's outside o’ th’ Exchange!

Here’s my vacation just beginning, and I get a notice to serve on a jury.” th’ main spring o’ th’ works!’ I says to myself. ‘Wait till some o’ these queens among th’ stenogs what order me ‘round like'I was their husbinds, if they've got any, find out I kin -go up to old Em Haitch,”’ that bein’ th’ name they called him, ‘‘an’ have him pat me on th’ back an’ call me by me first name!”’ But it looks like he’d never show up, an’ finally one day I asts somebody what his workin’ hours are. “Who, Em Haitch? he says. “I don't know, I never seen him!”’ ‘Fer heaven's sakes!"’ I says. “‘How long you beer workin’ fer th’ Nort’ Amerikin Invest- ment Co.?” “Three years,”” he says. “An’ never seen your own Boss!” i says. “How's that?’ “‘Nobody out here ever seen him.’ he says. ‘‘He comes in by th’ privut entrance and goes to his privut office, an’ the nearest he ever gets to outside here is Sylvester's pri- vut room.”” “Well,” I says, “why doa't anybody ever see him in there?” ‘‘No- body ever gets in there even,”’ says the jad. ““‘Why,”’ I says, “T was in there the first day I came to work.” “You were not,” he says. “That big room isn’t the one I mean, Sylvester's privut office is in behind that. Em Haitch nevor comes nearer th’ public part o' th’ of- fices than that.” “An’ why not?’ I says. '“Cranks!"" says the lad. “Y’ know they’ve tried to blow him up four or five times! On th’ level!’ he says, see- ing I don't believe him. “Men that say “Him! : Ha-ha'!”’ I says, Tememberin’ what a good natured old geek th’ old sport is. “Y’ don't know him!" says the lad. “He's a ter- ror. You'll be lucky if yon never see him, because he's likely as not, th’ minnut he claps eyes on anybody, to say he don’t like sumpin about ’em an’ tell "em to go get their pay an’ lenve.” | “He'd not tell me that!” I says. ‘“Lvon't ~ F } ee | ) paitepe F. se rhe Pe ts Ae My Wee aa get fresh!”’ says Wiggins, whos’e come ‘round to hear what the argument is. “I ain’t,”’ I says, ‘‘only!’"— Weil, what I was goin’ter say, don’t make much diff’rence, but what it really was, I guess, was some break about Old Em Haitch not firin’ me because him and me were old college pals. As |! say, though, it don’t make much diff’- rence what it was, because all of a sudden there was a kinder gasp all over the bunch. William Indulges in a Pipe Dream for a Brief Mmute T was just before quittin’ time in th’ | afternoon, an’ we was all gettin’ our hats, an’ kinder standin’ round the hall to chin for a minnut, an’ th’ sten- ogs were comin’ out of their rooms an’ waitin’ for their fellows to take ’em home an’ blow ’em to the carfare, an’ all kinder gasp, as I say, and everything’s quiet. I wondered what was up, and looked around, and who was it but Old Man Mordaunt comin’ down the hal! from the back of the offices, where his privut quarters were. Same old boy, with his silk topper on, and lookin’ spruce and fine, from what you can see of him, his head bein’ down. But if he’s been Shootin’ fire out of his eyes th’ gang coulden’ o’ been any more scared. They just stood there kinder tremblin’-like,. all except me, but I diden’ let on. I'm just thinkin’ o’ th’ laugh I’m goin’ ter have on ’em in a seckind when he comes along and reck- ernizes me fer th’ kid he uster call his/f “old pal’? when he'd come into his son- in-law’s office when I was workin’ there, an’ pass th’ time o’ day before duckin’ fer home. I got it all framed up what to say, too. “Why, hello, Bill, me lad,"’ he'll say, not knowin’ they're callin’ me William now. “I been so busy I kinder neglected runnin’ out to see you sence you come here to work.” “Oh, that’s all right, Mister Mordaunt,’’ I got it all framed up to say, “I'd oughter dropped into your privut office for a little chat, but I been sorter busy myself, learnin’ th’ bus’- ness!"" “I suppose so,”’ he'll come back with, takin’ me by th’ arm an’ walkin’ slowly to the coor, while th’ rest o’ that gang looks at me with envious eyes. ““‘How do you like it, anyhow?” “Oh, all right, Mister Mordaunt, so fur,”’ I'll say, “‘though there are a few suggestions I'd like to make about cer- tain things later.’’ “I wish you would,”’ he'll say. “Why not come upontown in my car with me and talk ‘em over on the way?’ An’ would I go with him? Not me. Not an’ miss th’ excitement of that crowd when they see how chummy I am with him. No, I'll say, “Not tonight, thanks, Mister Mordaunt. There's a few things I'd like to clear up before I go home.” Then when he’s gone and they al! crowd ‘round me, I'll say to 'em, “No, thanks, I didn’t care to ride up with him and be pestered with him astin’ my ad- vice on investments and things all th’ way!” \ Em Haitch William and Stops|to Speak a Word ES, that’s abqut the way it’s run- VY nin’ through\|my head when Em Haitch comes down the hall, head down. And just as he's passin’ me I’m on the point 0’ reachin’ owt an’ touchin’ 4 iim on the arm to remind him I’m there, when he looks up. An’ such a face! It ain’t the Old Man Mcrdaunt I'd seen in my old Boss’ of- fice—only like he might be when he’d ct sumpin that didn’t agree with him! Sour? Lemons are sweet compared to that map! And it’s pointed at me! Then I remember what the crowd was seyin’. Sometimes he might take a look at a lad and not like his makeup, and it would be a case of to the sweepers with him! But then it looks like his expression is changin’, an’ it’s almost a grin. Anyhow, he’s lookin’ at ms yet, an’ I’m wonderin’ is he waitin’ for me to speak first, when he says, in a voice like a pox o’ tacks: “What's your name?’’ ‘‘Bi—William, sir,”’ I s&ys, swallerin’ most of it. He’s still lookin’ at ma ‘‘Huh:” he says. “Remarkable resemblanee! Remarkab!l:! But not quite the same! Not quite! Fortunate for you! Very! Someone open the door! Quick!” And out he goes, his head down again, and me lookin’ after him. At th’ door he stops an’ seems like he’s comin’ back, but all he does ‘s look buck at me and say20 himsel?r: “Very strong resemblance, fut not the same! Fortunate for him! Caused mv son-in-law great trouble! ‘sreat! Asked me to engage him, but I refuse, if 1 remember correctly! Yes, must have! li’m!”” And he’s out! The bunch stands lookin’ at me, and Smithy says: ‘“‘What did he mean, do you suppose?’ “I give it up,’ I says, but I knew well enough, ‘‘He seemed tv think you looked like somebody he had seen before,’’ says one of the stenogs. “Yes,”” I says ‘‘diden’ he? But v’ course I dorf’t—not much, anyhow, 1| guess.”” ‘‘Well,’”’ says she, “it’s lucky for you you don’t, or you’d have gone quick. That’s his way!” ‘Yes,’ says two or three others. ‘‘We congratulate you!’ “‘Thanks!’’ I says, and starts for heme. But what I’m wonderin’ is, had I bet- rer telephome my old Boss if his daddy- in-law asts if I’m still workin’ for him to say he doesn’t know anything about me? Or just take a chance the old rat will forget there ever was such a per- son, and keep on workin’ for him in the hope he’ll never see me again? Or what? Anyhow, it goes to show there’s a big difference between a man like him in his office and outside! The best years of a man’s life are those in which he does his best.
