UP INTERNATIONAL TOPIS THIS WEEK House to-Consider Strike Con- spiracies and Senate Attacks on American Commerce. SESSIONS OPEN TOMORROW Indicted Congressman, to Press Impeachment Resolution , Against U. S. Attorney. By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Jan. 3,—Congress, when it reconvenes tomorrow, ‘will air its Views on two phases of the international situation as they are reflected in the United States. In the House the Buch- anan resolution to impeach District At-. torney Snowden Marshall of New York will open up the question of conspiracies and in the Senate the Smith-Lodge reso- ution to inquire into the attacks of belligerents on the American commerce and American people at sea will re- ceive attention. The consideration of the Buchanan resolution will result’ in a thorough in- vestigation of alleged bomb plots and other organizations to interfere with American industries. There is a strong feeling in the House against the people, whom President Wilson said in his message to Congress the day after it convened have “formed plots to destroy property,” “entered into conspiracies against the neutrality of the Government,’’ and have “tried to pry into all confidential matiers of the Government in order to serve interests alien to our own.”” The activities of the Labors National Peace Council, as well ‘as those of like organizations will be discussed. Marshalls Case to Come Up. Shortly after the House réconvenes, it ls expected that the Judiciary Committee will take up the impeachment resolu- tion introduced--by Representative Bu- chanan.® Before the holiday recess Buchanan Was required by the Judiciary Commit- tee to place in the hands of the mem- bers specific facts and figures, together with the list of witnesses he wished subpenaed to testify in the case. Bu- chanan asked that the matter go over, however, until after the New Year. In view of the fact that the Illinois member has been indicted along with other members of Labor’s National Peace Council for alleged violation of the Sherman anti-trust law, it will be interesting to note what affect such ac- tion will have upon the impeachment resolutions. Buchanan has promised to go to New York to: give bond for his appearance when wanted for trial. With an indictment hanging over him and the possibility of his early trial, members of Congress will no doubt desire to weigh all the evidence which may be presented against Marshall before tak- ing any steps to bring the matter squarely before the House. In the Senate the submarine policy of Germany and Austria will be discussed. Senator Lodge has given notice that if the “‘question of interference with Unit- ed States trade by Great Britain and other belligerent nations is to be in- quired into he will demand that the kill- ing of women and children be first in- vestigated. . Advocates Armor Plants. Senator Tillman will begin at once before the Senate Committee on Naval Affairs the consideration of his bill to provide for Government-owned armor plants. He said today that he would press for action on this proposition in the Senate. The Military and Naval Affairs com- mittees of the Senate and House will take definite steps to bring out national defense bills embodying the President’a recommendations for preparedness. . It is expected that before the end of this week the House Naval Attar Com- mittee will take steps in the difection of outlining its plan for naval prepar- edness. Chairman Padegtt has been in Washington during the holiday recess collecting information and material to used before the building program is finally agreed upon. Hearings will prob- ably commence within the next few days and will continue right along until the naval appropriation bill is ready to be reported to the House. HARRY COLE HELD FOR POLICE Barglar Once Convicted Here Wanted ' im Chieage for Robbing Home. Harry Cole, alias Lemoune and a dozen other names, who in 1908 was sent to the penitentiary for robbing St. Louis homes while. his wife was entertaining the mistresses at theater parties, fell into the hands of the police yesterday when detectives saw him entering ‘““Hon Alley.” He is held as a fugitive from Chicago, where, the police records show, he is wanted for robbing a. residence and carrying off a family safe contain- ing jewels and money. In 1908 the police here were baffied by a series of West End burglaries. Sev- eral women reported that while they were attending matinees with a Mrs. Cole their homes were ransacked. The robberies covered a period of thres weeks. Among the victims were Mra, Nellie Ehrer of 777 Buclid avenue and Mrs, Josephine Bernard of 4053 Olive street, who between them lost about $2000 worth of jewelry and silverware.

Got Government Permission to’ Market 27 of / 38 Carcasses. “'Tnirty-eight fine Holsteins, belonging to Louis A. Spies of 8007 Hawthorne boulevard and condemned as tubercu- lar last week by Assistant State Vete- rinarian D. L. Travis of Vandalia, 1!1., were sold ultimately to the Swift Pack- ing Co., which, after post-morter tests, got Government agents’ permission to market 27 carcasses. The remaining 11 carcasses were sent to the fertilizer tank. Spies, who is president of the St. Louis Union Dairy Co., got about $1000 for the cattle, which he valued at $7000. Dr. E. L. Bertram, chief of the United States Bureau of Animal Industry at the National Stockyards, today explained what had become of the cattle. He said Veterinarian Travis, after having been invited by Spies to make the inspection Dec. 21, telephoned that he was sending to Hast St. Lowis 88 head which had re- acted to a tubercular test, meaning that all showed symptoms of tubercu- losis. After the test, Spies sold the cat- tle to An East Side commission firm, which sold them to Swift's, subject to post-mortem tests. After the cattle were butchered, Dec. 23, three Government Inspectors exam- ined them for traces of tuberculosis, Dr. Bertram said that both he and Spies wit- nessed the test, as did Drs. L. B. and W. R. Michaels, veterinarians represent- ing Spies. Eleven Head Condemned. The test resulted, Dr. Bertram said, in li head being condemned and sent to the fertilizer tank; four head were passed for sterilization, and 23 head were passed in raw state for food. *‘Passing for sterilization’ means that the cattle had to be kept in a tempera- ture of 170 degrees-for 30 minutes, after which they can be marketed if labeled as “meat passed for sterillzation.”’ Such meat is canned, and the labels show the contents had been passed for steriliza- tion. Of the 23 passed for food in raw state only two head did not react positively to tubercular test. The other 21, Dr. Rert- ram said, had small tubercular lesions, about the size of a pinhead. These le- sions were cut away by Government In- spectors, and the carcass passed for mar- keting. 94 Holsteins in Herd. There were 94 Holsteins in Spies’ herd at St. Jacobs, Ill., when the inspection was made. In all, 51 reacted to tuber- cular tests, and 18 were quarantinued on an adjoining farm. Spies said he in- vited an inspection of the herd every six months, to guarantee its freedom ‘from tuberculosis. This herd, he says, is the one which furnishes the certified milk sold by the Union Dairy Co.

The purpose of the suit is to enjoin them from holding title to the club’s property and carrying out a reorganization from which members of the original club are excluded. Smith, who is one of the defendants, was called as a witness, and was asked, as secretary of the club, to state wheth- er the plaintiffs were members. He re- plied that he had been unable to learn sbip in the largest animal there. “The last Legislature passed a tax of one-fifth of a mill for the support of the Zoo, which I believe will be ratified at the fall election this year. This would sive us $130,000 a” year and enable us to have one of the best Zoos in the coun- try.’ An tava has been offered the Zoo for $2000 by Hagenbeck, the animal train- er now in quarters in Hamburg, Ger- many.

Archbishop Glennon, in his monthly sermon at the New Cathedral yester- day, spoke in a favorable way of New Year’s resolutions, saying that the keep- ing of resolutions is the best evidence of character. In a review of the occur- rences of 1915, he spoke of national and industrial peace as a cause for thank- fulness. In speaking of the progress toward the completion of the New Cathedral, now cccupied, the Archbishop said that the erection of the high altar had been de- layed by “the war and the sinking of ships and of columns,” but that he hoped tu see the altar finished this year.

The doctors said nothing but a change of climate would help her. We were discour- aged, when one day a friend asked us to try Vinol, and after taking ‘six bottles she does not look like the same child. She has a fine appetite, is lively, healthy and well, and Vinol did it all.” Mrs. F. B. Hufford, Iola, Kas. Another child made strong:— “The measies left my little girl thin and délicate, and the doctor's medicine did not seem to build her up.

This was due, he said, to the complicated system by which stock in the club had been canceled and reissued. : Eight trustees of the old Glen Echo Club are the defendants. The purpose of the suit is to enjoin them from hold- ing title to the club’s property and from reorganizing the club in such a way that members of the original organiza- tion shall be excluded from the prfv- ileges of the club. The trustees purchased the club's property for $132,000 at a foreclosure sale July 10. After the purchase the trustees as- serted that they had bought the prop- erty with their own money and that they were not obliged to admit all of the old members of the club to mem- bership in a new club which they pro- posed to form. In sending out invita- tions to join the new club, they ex- cluded 135 of the old members. The trustees named as defendants are Albert Bond Lambert, C. D. Johnson, H, L. Parker, John C. Robe .s, E. A. Faust, F. E. Nulisen, Harry Pflager and Ss. T. G. Smith. James C.

Butcher shops don’t sell meat on those days and the meatless regulations are enforce/l strictly, especially in restaurants. Then eggs and fish take the place of meai. They say that meat is not sold or eaten in order to save on fats. And fats have all been cut down, too. Meat is not as good today in Ger- many as it was before the war or up to last spring.

According to official reports there is enough cotton on hand for use by the army to last three years. There was considerable shortage 92! copper up to a month or ‘more ago. Since then the Balkans have been opened and extensive copper mines were captured by the Germans, Austrians and Bulgarians in Servia. Throughout the country people have gathered their copper and brought it to the various receiving depots which had been established in nearly every city in the land. In that way’a very large amount of copper was gathered, so much so that it never became necessary to take from many palgces and churches their expensive copper roofs. These roofs were looked upon as a sort of re- | serve fund. Recently those citizens who freely gave ready for service for the front in two or three months. Of that number only those of 20 years old will be called to service at the front. This applies to those who will be 23 years old in Janu- ary and February of .1916. The Landsturm is used almost exclu- sively for guard duty, and of those only those between the ages of 37 and 46 have been called in. Up to 37 years of age soldiers are sent to the front. If Germany should cal] to her colors men between 45.and 58, then 3,000,000 more would be added to the list of those available for service. In that, event, it is pointed out, those between the ages of 46 and 50 would be assigned to guard duty, while they would send men to the front up to 45 vears of age—making between 6,000,000 and 7,000,000 men to be added to the list. The German Government up to date $2.10 a day. Prisoners are turned over to these factories at the rate of $1.00 a day. The money they earn is paid by the manufacturers te the German Gov- ernment. The prisoner receives % cents a day for his labor, and the rest goes to the support of the prison camp proper. How Prisoners Are ‘Treated, The Russian prisonesr of war, with a few exceptions, cannot be employed as mechanics, They are placed mostly on farms and help in the construction of railways and repairs of streets.

It was pointed out today that in the brief filed by the Reorganization Com- mittee it was made plain that the Vot- ing Trust was an absolute essential, ,except the United | created by investments in South and it was stated authoritatively that the views of the reorganizers on this point were absolute and unchangeable; that is, if the Voting Trust must be abandoned, then the whole reorganiza- tion plan falls, and no new plan could be formulated that would not contain this same provision. Having reached this conclusion, the reorganizers are now trying to devise a means to bring about the establish- ment of the Voting Trust in a manner acceptable to the Missouri Commission, but they have not as yet made any headway. No one in a position to speak for the reorganizers will even admit that thev will apply to the Missouri Commission for a rehearing, as they have the right to do up to Jan. 12, put it is considered that this application will be filed, and a further effort made to convince the Missouri commissioners that such a ee ee en me eee COUN tries have from all States ‘and importations been iargely reduced. “It is probable that a fair share of his eatate he left In five equal snares tc his other children. or thé@iechetrei The present list of heirs reads: the trade diverted to this country by the | heirs ef Mrs. Fannie Taylor) aire dtare Trade wilt!

Food prices have risen, in many in- stances, 50 per cent, and in some as high as 100 per cent. 5. There have been a few so-called “food riots,’’ the’ result of high prices the poorer were unable to pay. Now the Government has fixed prices in gen- eral and the trouble is apparently ended. 6. There is still a shortage of copper, cotton, gasoline, mutter, milk, rice, rub- ber. ‘+, Germany has enough » men to carry Government, and it was discovered the first had been incorrect, that the farm- ers had given false figures in order to be able to speculate with the stock they had on hand; and more than that, it was found that the amount of potatoes then on hand was slightly above the original figures furnished by the count taken in March. Usurers Were Hard Hit. Of course, the usurers who had ‘*x- pected to make huge: fortunes out of the potato crop on hand were hit hard; po- tatoes rotted and there were no pigs to to supply enough men for all the armies that are world war ha3 always been a matter of tains about 15 per cent of real rubber. This substitute cannot be used in the manufacture of rubber tires or tubes, It works excellently in connection with the manufacture of hard tires. If the war continues for some time there will be a shortage of articles of luxury, but the Germans say they can do without them as long as they win the war. Whether or not Germany will be able this necessary to carry on a matter concerning which nobody will talk today. In fact, you cannot find an official authority in entire Germany to- day who will give you the exact num- bers for publication. It is calculated that the number of wounded ‘is about 600,000. Of that num- ber between 60 and 80 per cent are either at the front again or assigned to garrison and other duties at home.

Wherever you go in Germany, no mat- ter how big or small the place may be, the visitor sees signs displayed almost everywhere warning soldiers and others against spies.

They are employed in shops and in banks. They ride at the end of an omnibus or electrio car, wearing the uniform of conductors.

Of the wounded, there are many who have gone back as many as five times since the war started. As far as the prisoners are concerned, it is stated Germany has about 2,000,009 and with Austria about 3,600,000. Ger- mans calculate that their enemies suf- fered a loss of about 6,500,000 in dead, wounded and prisoners. The people in general are wondering when peace will come to them, and when the watgsvill be terminated. While they all favor peace, yet they do not want a peace at any cost. They want a peace, a lasting one, with such re- ward as a conqueror might be able to dictate. Still another point.

The hostility—some call it hatred— against America and Americans is greater today in Germany than it was last spring. Germans believe that Amer- icans are’ almost as much their enemies es the nations with whom they are at! war, for without the supply of ammuni- tion from the “United States they be- lieve the war would have ended long ago, 10. There ts considerable talk in cer- tain quarters of a possible boycott against goods manufactured in the Unit- States after the war. 1.

Unless peace comes unexpectedly, tha strife. the Germans say, will be continued until both sides are complete- ly exhausted, 13. The’'German people have become more serious in thought and action be- cause of the terrible losses in lives and property, 14. Germany is guarding most care- fully against foreign spies and notices warning the soldiers not to talk lest they be overheard by foreign spies are posted everywhere throughdéut the entire em- pire, 5. It is much harder today for a for- ¢igner and especially an American, to get about In Germany than it was last epring. 1s. A man unable to speak the Ger-[ no inan tongue and traveling in Germany runs more or leas risk today. 7. Many Germans are of the opinion that President Wilson could have set- tiled the war by insisting that England raise the blockade against cotton and foodstuffs as against Germany. There is a scarcity of automobile taxicabs, due to the-fact that rubber ts hard to get. Outside of priavte car- riagy horses, owned by the very rich, you don’t see a good looking horse in the streets. The old nags are in plenty. You see men and more women har- * peared to carta and wagons, many drag- ging the vehicles, others shoving and pushing them along. But with all that there ts no complaint. The bread card system is still in force, although since last March it has been ascertained thai there is an ample sup- ply of wheat and flour on hand to sup- ply everybody, including the many pris- war. serious consideration. .But in Germany the people are convinced that no matter how long the war will last they will have the men necessary. A German nobleman who is conver- sant with the situation, but whose name must not be mentioned, told of the sit- uation when in conversation with the writer. According to his views, and he is closely connected with official Berlin, there are at present available for sery- ice all the men born between 1870 and 189%—men between the ages of 19 and 4 years. The number of men of these ages is about 14,000,000, of which there are available about 80 per cent, or over 11,000,000 men. Besides these, there and non-commissioned officers above the age of 45; the volunteers, who are more than 46 vears old, and some boys in the ranks, or available for service) also as volunteers, who. have not yet reached their nineteenth year, These add about 600,000 more to the list of available men, making a total of 11,600,- (YW men, Figure on 10,000,000 Men, This same authority figures that the iosses since the beginning of the war amount to about 1,250,000, including dead, consume what was left. Now,.the Ger- mans say, that in January the pigs will be fat enough to be killed, and in that way lots of fat will be obtained and the shortage of fat stuffs overcome. This applies also to butter. When there was not a sufficient amount of fat on hand, people bought up all the butter they could, salted it away; and put it in storage. This again created a shortage of butter, which up to this time has noi Leen overcome. Because of this, there has also been a shortage of milk; and cream is practically nowhere to be pur- chased just now. The same applies to cattle. Meats have not been as good recently as they were in the early part of the year, because there was a lack of fodder, due to the fact that very little could be imported into Germany. There had been a report of a shortage of wheat, which later on proved to be in- correct. In many cities the communities have purchased butter at wholesale, and are now selling it to the poor people at 2% cents a pound, upon the presentation of butter cards, furnished to them by the authorities, but with all that the supply of butter does not fill the demand. The German people are prepared for almost anything as far as the duration of the war is concerned. They feel they are supplied amply with provisions and that even if the blockade against Ger- man ports continues, they will still oe able to supply all their wants, especial- ily sinee the road to Turkey has been opened to them. As for the men in the field. there is doubt that they are supplied with aimple food of all kinds. The German soldiers fighting in the West are much better off, it would appear, than those following the Russian army in the East. In the beginning of the war, and up to not very long ago, the German peo- ple at home sent food to relatives anid friends in the field. Large quantities were shipped and gladly received by the fighting men. Of late, however, ‘he soldiers in the trenches in the West have written to their relatives at home, asking them not to send any more food to them, because, they wrote. they had ample. It is true that there have been a few so-called “food riots” in different parts of the empire. They have been particu- larly prominent in various towns in Saxony. The ringleaders in most of these cages were women. They would first call on the Mayor of the town and demand tha: prices be lowered. This applied almost exclusively to the sale of butter, When the authorities failed to act. the people took it upon themselves to call particu- iar attention to their wants by smash- ing windows in shops where butter was sold. Throughout Germany there is report- ed a shortage of cotton, This again ap- Kansas “Prohibition Leader Dies. KANSAS ALITY, Mo., an. 3.—Maj.

Not an Amer- ican marine was injured in the danger- ous undertaking, according to official reports just received at headquarters of the marine corps, Fort Riviere was built by the French when Haiti was a colonial possession of that country and has been the head- quarters of Caco bandits for years.

MONDAY HVENING, JANUARY 3, 1916. - ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH ee a emenm 91. LUUID FUDI“UIDFAILN © Sew in Audience Besides Friends Knew That Miss Longan Be- came Bride Last June. Few singers have the good fortune to command so numerous and loyal a fol- lowing as the 100 or so Missouri Uni- versity alumni who formed the nucleus wl yesterday afternoon's “pop” au- dience at the Odeon, where Mrs. R. A. Hauer of Chicago, soprano, appeared as soloist under her maiden name, Agnes Scott Longan. The daughter of Judge student for two years at Missouri Uni- versity. Probably few in the audience outside of personal friends knew she was a bride, she laving been married last June. She studied vocal art in Paris for four years, and last fall sang the role of Marguerite in “Faust,”’ as a guest artist with the San Carlo Opera Company. Mrs. Hauer’s numbers were the aria, “Un bel di,” from “Madame Butterfly,’ accompanied by the orchestra, and a group of songs with piano, consisting of Horsamann’s “‘The Bird of the Wilder- ness,”’ the Campbell-Tipton ‘“The Spirit Flowers” and a pretty new song, played from manuscript, by McNair Ilgenfritz of St. Louls. As an encore she sang Thayer's “My Laddte.” Her voice, of light, high quality, scarcely had the dimensions to cope with the big Puccini song. -here were also mishaps of tempo between singer and orchestra; for instance, she unexpect- edly attacked the phrase on ‘‘morire”’ before the musicians were ready, 30 that they had to leap hastily into the chord in order to overtake her. But she prospered much better in her lyric selections, which afforded an op- portunity for some pleasing mezza-voce singing, and for a display of her gen- uinely excellent head tones. The song that she did best. perhaps, was ‘“The Spirit Flower,” interpreted with consid- erable expression. Led by the Missouri University group, the audience, one of the largest of the season, applauded her with unusual cordiality, and, had she wished, she could have given more than one extra number. The orchestra had some numbers which have been worn about thread- bare, such as Hendel’s “Largo,”’ with the violin solo by Hugo Olk; and Suppe’s “Poet and Peasant” overture. But the program also contained a quantity of interesting music like the ‘““March of the ‘‘Toys,”” from Herbert's “Babes in Toy- land,” Schubert’s Entr’-act from ‘‘Rosa- munde,” and the finale to Act I, from “Lohengrin ° Big Hosiery Mills Barned.

It is said to have at times aceémmodated 200 players. Roulette, faro, 21, Black Jack, seven and a halt, draw and stud poker and craps were the favorite games. Evidence was presented to the grand jury showing that these gambling houses did their banking business with one bank. Persons connected with the active operation of the gambling games, according to testimony which is known to have gone to the grand jury, aiso had supervision over the hundred or more places selling Uquor, and received tribute from the liquor sellers. Persons who have been watching the law violations for years are almost unanimous in the opinion that the tribute, reliably reported to be 2% per cent of the profits, did not stop with gamblers, but was divided with men: higher up. The names of some of the most prominent residents of Tulsa have been connected with the “Vice Trust,” including men of wealth and of high church standing. In addition to the 3% per cent the operators of the small “joints’’ were required to “stand for a monthly pinch,”’ it is declared. Each month some per- son Was arrested in each place. It was customary for the person arrested to put up a $20 cash bond, which he forfeited. He was not again molested, but the next month some person must be arrested. The bond process was re- peated. The big gambling houses paid $200 a month. From these fines: or bond foreitures the city derived revenue Oklahoma has a peculiar statute which makes an official subject to prosecution for bribery if he accepts money for the city in consideration of not prosecuting a violator of the law. This in general was the situation which existed in Tulsa when the grand jury convened in November. Judge Linn itn Office a Year. Judge Linn took office a year ago. He had not been active in opposing law violators before taking office and his election was greeted with pleasure by the ring. Soon after taking his seat he intimated to some officers that he would expect them to enforce the laws, He even waited until October for them to act. When they did not do so he arranged with Gov. Williams to have Attorney-General Freeling conduct a grand jury investigation. ; ‘ On recommendations from this grand jury Judge Linn has suspended from office Sheriff James Wolley of Tulsa County, Mayor Frank M. Wood- en, Fire and Police Commissioner Thomas J.-Quinn, Chief of Police Fos- ter N. Burns of Tulsa, and the Mar- shal and Justice of the Peace in Skiatook, a village 12 miles from Tulsa. Chief Burns resigned without a trial. Trials of the other suspended officials will begin Jan. 20. The grand jury returned 156 indict- ments, principally against men charged with operating gambling houses. On a charge of operating the Metropolitan, Ben Green, C. H. Over- ton, Arthur Slavin and George Davis were indicted, On request of the grand jury an injunction was issued against Grant McCullough, president of the First National Bank, and L. K. Cone, a wealthy citizen, prohibit- ing them from renting the Metropoli- tan building for gambling purposes, [Injunction Against Building. W. D. Moore, W. S. Holland and R. J. Allison were indicted as proprie- tors of the .Baltimore gambling house. An injunction was issued against Thomas B. Bliss as owner of the property, \ J. T. Johns and B. H. McLoughlin were indicted as proprietors of the Central gambling house. An injunc- tion was issued against Mrs. Mary T. Hufft as owner of the property. In its final report the grand jury severely criticise{ County Edward Crossland. It charged he had failed to enforce the law against bootleggers and gamblers. Officers in charge of the county jail weer said by the grand jury to have accorded special privileges to bootleggers. One prisoner: was said | to have been furnished with a pri- vate room, telephone and _ special meals and to have been permitted to go at will about town. The Tulsa Board of Education was eriticised for failure to compel con- tractors to live up to specifications in the construction of school buildings. The Tulsa newspapers, the grand jury said, had received exhorbitant prices for city advertising “really for the purpose of whitewashing ques- tionable acts of public officials, rath- er than for the real good of the city.” The grand jury said the Sheriff had permitted violations of the law, and that the polict departmen hai made practically no effort to sup- press lawlessness, “THERE'S a Mats in This Big World for fou.'’ Get her a diamond ring on credit at Loftis Bros., 2d feor, 808 N. 6th st.

Seuarce of Trouble for Years. The delegates from the Southern States have been a source of trouble m Republican conventions for many years, and the decision to reduce the represen- tation resulted directiy from the fight in the national convention at Chicago four years ago. Sedalia, Jefferson City, Springfieid, Kansas City and St. Louis and probably Excelsior Springs, will be bidders for the Republican State convention. As the Republican convention of 1912 was heid in St. Louis, it is probable that it will go to some other part of the State this year. FE. L. Morse of Excelsior Springs, one of the leaders of the Weeks campaign, is ecager to have the conven- tion sent to his home town.

The movement to have Graves succeed Justice Lurton became so widespread that Graves was indorsed for the place by Gov. Glynn of New York, Gov. Hays of Arkansas, Gov. and Gov. Cruce of Oklahoma. Senators Reed and Stone and the entire Missouri delegation in Congress urged the Presi- dent to appoint Graves, until the Presi- dent notified Senator Stone confidential- ly that he had decided to appoint James C.

This year opens with another grave crisis. On the heels of Austro-Hungary’s warm profession of friendship and of earnest desire to clear away all obstacles to amicable relations with the United States caused by the Ancona attack, another Med- iterranean liner, the Persia, is torpedoed without sewer and sent to the bottom with hundreds of innocent, helpless passengers. It seems certain that one of the victims is Robert N. McNeeley, American Consul at Aden, Arabia, who was on his way to his post of duty. We do not yet know the nationality of the sub- marine commander who committed this barbarous outrage. The evidence so far received indicates a wanton and unpardonable act of savagery and bad faith. Until all obtainable evidence is at hand and the nationality of the submarine commander is known, final judgment must be suspended. If either Germany or Austria is guilty—there is little chance of both being guiltless—the offense Power is profoundly humiliated. Either its profes- sions are utterly insincere and false, or it is the victim of commanders who are grossly ignorant or disobedient or indifferent to the honor of their nation. If we find that we are deceived and maltreated we shall know how to act and we shall act. Con- ditions are rapidly becoming intolerable. It is imperative that we know as soon as possible where we stand and what means are necessary to protect Americans on the ocean. May those who are ever making trouble for their friends be less numerous in the new year. = — = — ae PAVING COUNTRY HIGHWAYS.

Many are the complaints you receive, so I am here with one which I hope the paper will take up and do as much for as possible, namely, the - paydays of the Board of Education.

The precise variety of pavement to be laid is not specified. Probably it will vary with the section of country and the sort of near-by mate- ridl available. But the important thing is that the country is to profit by the costly experience of the cities in providing the kinds of pavements that combine the most desirable qualities in a roadway. The good roads idea has indisputably made some progress in this country when the extension of perfected city pavements, not merely across ward lines, but across county and state lines, is de- termined. The Jacksonville-Miami, the Tallahasse-Barlow, the Cincinnati-Toledo and the Danville-Chicago links are the sections to be paved under the de- cisions reached to date. The Dixie was laid out eight months ago, anc 50 of the 150.or more cou®ties it traverses have al- ready spent $1,700,000 in construction work. It is planned to spend $20,000,000 on it during 1916. = =_— ee ck GERMAN UNIVERSITIES HARD HIT. On occasion of the investiture of Doctor Cru- sius to the presidency of the Munich Academy of Sciences, on November 20, the new officer re- viewed the losses of some of the German univer- sities through the war. Among the institutions mentioned were the Albertus University of Mu- nich, which lost seven of its professors and 98 students; the University of Bonn, which is so far credited with the loss of eight professors and 111 students; the University of Karlsruhe, with four professors and 68 students on the list of the fallen: Kassel, with nine professors and 132 stu- dents among the slain. Incidentally, the speaker mentioned the The- saurus Linguae Latinae, a work begun 10 years ago. Out of seven collaborators only one, Dr. Crusius himself, is left to complete the work; the others are all in the casualty lists. Heidelberg, Magdeburg, Berlin, Potsdam, Ham- burg, Mannheim, Breslau, Leipzig and Dresden luniversities that have liberally supplied human war material, have all suffered materially in their teaching staffs and even more so in their student number. Many of the smaller schools will, after the war, be compelled to form coali- tions in order to continue a possible existence, as there will not be students enough in the land ig rank.

Then the dentature was critically examined towards a tabulated conclu- sion as to the effect of meat, fruits, sweets, heat and cold, vegetables, sauces, etc., upon the teeth. Neurologists examined the formation of the skulls, the muscular development in its varia- tions in keeping with skull formation. Also the eye and other senses to ascertain perfection of sight in its varying degrees, and alertness in response of muscle to nerve action. These latter bad a vast field of observation in those who suf- fered injuries to the head, and noted the corre- sponding disabilities. A large body of neurologists are studying nerve conditions in the trenches where incipient in- sanity or simple hallucinations seem to be of- fered copiously. So as not to lose the value of these. exploita- tions, every observer is obliged to turn over daily his observations to a central authority. = = = » te 2th y The Bergens Fjord has brought Henry Fjord home safe. _=__ — a THE BENEFACTIONS OF 1915. Among private benefactions the largest single gift in the whole world during 1915—-an endow- ment of $76,000,000 for war victims—was attend- ed by two interesting circumstances. One is that the gift was made in New Zealand, which newly settled, partly developed and com- paratively small country in consequence stands ahead of rich and mighty America and all other countries in the year’s record of generosity. The second is that it was given by a woman. In fact, of the aggregate of private donations for beneficent purposes in 1915 more than half was given by the women of the world. This is elo- quent of the huge portion of the world’s. wealth that is now under the trustseship of women and of the wise use they are making of it. That these women gave their money to benevolent pur- poses is not as surprising as that they had so much money to give. The women are assuming a part of ever-increas- ing importance in the field of business. They ex- emplify in peculiarly gratifying ways the impulses of human sympathy and generosity. The total of all world benefactions is $500,000,- 000. It is a huge sum, but the woes which it is designed to relieve are colossal. The blackest year in all modern history makes powerful ap- peals to generosity. This $500,000,000 in donations of persons who ir, the giving wrote themselves down among those who love their fellow men would probably pay the war costs of Germany and the allies for at least one week. ——__—_—_—_—+9¢—______—_— Georgia leads in lynchings for 1915.

A St. Louis physician, Dr. Wallin, made a timely talk before a gathering of psychologists at Chi- cago on the danger of relying om the tests of Dr. Alfred Binet and on other arbitrary standards for determining subnormal mentality. Four farmers, one business man and one house- wife, all of whom had had highly successful ca- reers, had conducted themselves with credit in the ordinary relations of life and had reared families of bright children, were determined by the use of these tests to deserve classification among the feeble-minded. Science’s hard-and-fast conclusions are to be accepted generally with caution when applied to so uncertain a thing as humanity, whether the subject is of mature age or a delicate infant ush- ered into the world with the handicap of physical deformity. The persevering attempts of science to label us all and then distribute us among a few neatly made pigeonholes for certain predetermined des- tinations like mail in a country postoffice, are not brilliantly successful. Feeble-minded persons undeniably exist in con- siderable numbers, but that status is not to be fixed unchangeably by the application of arbi- trary rule. In other words, the tests that might be conclusive as to one person or several persons might not be at all determinative as to all per- sons. It was the fashion only a few years ago to ar- —s which unerringly revealed the criminal tendency. The world has rapidly receded from that view. That there is no distinctive criminal type is now generally accepted. And that there is no dis- tinctive type of sub-intelligence is as probable. Alarmist statements about race deterioration and the growing prevalence of mental defects among children are to be discounted. s». &. - SS Bulgaria is the “sassiest” of all the Powers.

ANTWINE ON THE PEACE MOVEMENT. R ANTWINE had just about gotten through M everything in the postoffice when people began to come in. ‘Mr. Ford is back from Europe for more money,’’ he said. ‘‘He thinks the peace movement is grow- ing, and he means to back it as long as it gives promise of doing any good. ‘*Meanwhile, .what looks like a real peace move- ment has been made by the Ozar in Bessarabia. He is said to have a million and a half of well-armed and somewhat disciplined men, and if he can keep on going in the direction he is headed he will éut the German and Austrian line in the Balkans. That would bottle one end of their line in Turkey, hurl the other end back upon Austria and set the allied line in Flanders in motidh. Peace couldn't be very far off then. The Ozar is not much spoken of in connection with peace, and I doubt if Mr. Ford has thought of him as a competitor. However, Mr. Ford would better hurry.’’ BEETHOVEN.

Ned was a dog, and when he felt what he thought was the sharp claws of Dina, the cat, he gave a long howl and jumped up. He dashed across the barnyard and ran into Black Hen and her chicks. They thought he was mad, and Black Hen ran, followed by her chicks. They bumped into Madam Duck, and over she went on her back. “Mercy me!’ she exclaimed, as she got upon her feet. “Black Hen has gone mad I do believe.’’ and off she waddiled as fast as a duck can. Old Goosey-Gander Ts bee began it when it alighted on was standing in over as he went by, and before Goosey- Gander could get upon his feet Black Hen and her chicks came running by, and over went poor Gosey-Gander the second time. He had just stood up and was stretch- ing his neck to see what it was all about when Madam Duck came waddling by. She did not see Goosey-Gander because she was jooking ahead, and, bump, she went into him, and over they both rolled. “What do you mean by getting in my way?’ said Madam Duck as soon as she was upon her feet. ‘Madam, you ran into me when I was standing perfectly still,’ replied Goosey- Gander. “You must be mad, as well as Ned and the Black Hen.” Vi plying and Goosey-Gander ran aleo, for by this time Ned had run into Medam Pig and her little ones and tipped over three of them, and Riack Hen was running so fast she could not stop, so she rolled over the pigs, end Madam Duck and Goosey-Gander tumbled into the mix-up. Dina, who had been peacefully sleep- ing in the barn doorway, jumped up and came out into the yard to see what had happened. She ran in front of Ned, whose eye was swollen by this time and paining him, and, thinking that Dina was the cause of all his troubles, he ran at her, showing his teeth. Now Dina was not afraid of any thing or anyone, and she promptly humped her back and spit out her wrath at Ned, striking him with her paw.

Her story was the “story ‘of many 34 couple who indulge in domestic mud- slinging during heated anger. This husband and wife are devoted to each other, but oc- casionally have had little differences. They usually set- tled these and all cently, on one occa- sion, they seemed unable to fix up thelr dispute and agreed to separate forever —the same eld story. Whereupon the wife, seeking the sym- pathy of her neighbors, went among them and told how much abused she was and what a terrible “brute” her husband was. She paraded all his bad habits and faults to the populace for the purpose. of getting its pity. In fact, she went further than the actual facts war- ranted and made mountains out of mole hilis. From her talk, you would have thought that ber husband was the Evil (ne personified.

Thus, every- body kmew all the details of the family’s troubles. Tie stayed away from home, and she proceeded to a lawyer to find ways and raeans of leaving him forever, etc, etc. As matters turned out this woman bap pened to choose a good lawyer—a man who knew the human game and wanted to be a mediator rather than a money- maker. Somehow he knew that the woman did not want a divorce as much as she wanted good, sound advice. He told her to search her own heart and be honest with it. Then he went f the husband and urged him to take issue with him- out if this breaking-up The lawyer's diagnosis proved correct; and divorce was the farthest thing fron the real desires of these persons, who had temporarily disagreed. Thus the couple came together again, and now are very happy in a reconciliation that they claim will last ‘‘until death do them part.” : In a ‘word, they adjusted their Brievances and all is gofng well with them—all but the neighbors. Now the couple are ashamed of what they said about each other to others. Everywhere ize that, although they have forgotten their own differences, their friends haven't, and still look upon them with questioning manner, if not amusetnent. The wife feels badly about it. However, if she has to move out of an environment that she used to like, it is her own fault. Telling one’s family trials to out- siders, [n a sentimental way, never got anybody anything but momentary wynrpathy.

Syracuse beat Brown one touchdown in a contest where the winners did not get the best results from their attack. “At least one teuchdewn bet- ter,” was the way Washington State’s outlook was quoted by Old Man Dope. Did anyome say there is nothing te the compara- tive score system? . = s “Eckie” Is Complimentary. ALTER ECKERSALL, once Ali- America quarterback and now football expert for a Chicago newspa- per, refereed the Washington State con- test and warmed up a few of his very best compliments for the winners, after the game. Eckersall was in. great form for an archery contest, yesterday. We leave it to his remarks to convince readers Whether le did not pull one of the long- est bows in the history of the game. Note this excerpt from his interview: “The Washington State team is the equal of Cornell. There is not a better football team im the country. I do not beliewe I ever saw a better ome, at any time. The team starts faster and mere as a unit than any cleven in the United States.” A Harvard eleven, with only THREE regulars in its lineup, scored 16 points against Brown U., the week after it had beaten Yale. Washington. State, thus scored less than the Harvard substitutes, against Brown. ae ae o The Dope vs. Eckersall. EVERTHELESS, Eckersall gets it across the human intelligence that Washington State has.a fine team ~which was very apparent from its season’s record. Comparative scores tell a truer story, in this particular in- stance. Washington State could not be ex t- ed to defeat Harvard, Cornell, Pana ton or Pittsburg; it would have had a whale of a time beatrng Syracuse, Dart- mouth and probably two or three other Eastern elevehns. That it belongs to the first 10 teams in the country seems te be fully apparent from the season's results. And the “dope” finished this season with an average ef S2 per cent successes, Let’s Bury the Terriers.

Thus United States fight fans will mever get a chance te view the famous spectacle of a world’s champion who, although knocked out, was still able to Mft an arm and shield his eyes from the rays ef the sun, while the referee was counting him out of a title.

Packey McFarland, the Chicago box- er, has won his first decision as a bike promoter. The stockyards favorite is promoting a six-day race in Chicago in February. The National Cycling Asso- ciation refused to grant him a sanc- tion. He signed up 2 riders, who prom- ised to stand by one another if any of them were suspended for competing in Chicago. Seeing the riders so strongly lined up against them, the N. C. A. dae- clared that they would agree to sanec- tion the meet, providing Packey gave them a certain percentage of his re ceipts. He says that unless he can ob- tain a sanction free he will conduct ais race without one. Waiver Clause Omitted by Mistake When Peace Agreement Was Drafted CINCINNATI, Jan. 3.—With several matters before it pertaining to the peace treaty recently signed here, the Na- tional Baseball Commission began its annual session shortly after noon today. Owing to the train upon which Presi- dent Tener of the National League was coming from the East being late, the session was delayed for a short time. Capt. T. L. Huston of the New York Americans was the only major leaguer present other than the members of the commission. It became known that the matter re- garding whether the former Federal League players would be subject to the waiver-rule had been incorperated tin the peace treaty, but that in making numerous corrections, aiterations and additions it had somehow been omitted from the copy that was signed. Just how the question was originally decid- ed é¢ould not be ascertained, the an- nouncement being made by Chairman Herrmann of the commission that it would be taken up again and the whole subject gone into thoroughly before any decision would be reached. There were no members of the Fed- eral League present today. CALLAHAN TRYING TO BUY CHICAGO DISCARDS CHICAGO, Jan. 3.—-The Pittsburg Nation- als, through Manager Callahan, today opened negotiations for some of the players on the list of the Chicago Nationals and Chicago .Federals.

And at that he isn’t planning a long training trip. The Browns will go South for two, or at the outside three weeks, and then return for the spring series with theCardinals. By that time Jones hopes to know exactly the capabilities of every man on the squad. Jones’ system of estat yf ple. He isn't a believer in batting cages, sliding pits and the like. His contention is that the training trip should tend to do nothing more than loosen the muscles of the players and start them on the proper diet. They'll tearn their baseball in the league race. Stealing Signals Ethically. Jones places a high value on the busi- ness of stealing signals, however, when that can be done ethically. On the other hand, he doesn’t believe in an intricate set of signals. “The fewer signs you have on a ball club the better,’’ is his pet theory. ‘‘Un- less you have a wonderiuily alert set of men, signals have a tendency to confuse their minds. My idea is to make the signals as simple and as few as possible. I've always practiced that. “And I've always insisted that my players make a study of the other fel- lows’ signals. I think a base runner should never attempt to steal unless he has an inkling of what is going to be pitched. “Ernie Johnson is really a marvel at catching the catcher’s signs. I think Johnson was the best baserunner in the game last year. He was success?) tn almost every steal he attempted be- cause he didn’t go down unless he had the signal. In a majority of the times he started they didn’t even throw. He had the base standing up, because he went only when a curve ball was called for. ‘“‘Marsans is another wise head on the bases, while Tobin has done remarkably well considering his experience. In baserunning it's not a question of how, but WHEN to go. Speed is a minor consideration. You've got to have a brain to succeed and success depends entirely upon your study of the enemy's signal system.’ Final Transfer This Week. Jones.has accomplished practically nothing since his arrival because of the delay in the final transfer of the club. An audit of the books at Sportsman's Park will be completed early this week and it’s possible that the new owners will take charge immediately after this business is finished. Jones hasn't yet visited Sportsman's Park and won't un- til he takes charge there, is very sim- Miller Huggins is scheduled to reach town either Tuesday or Wednesday and begin preparations for the spring train- ing trip. The Cardinals will again work out at Hot Wells, Tex., and will start South on March 3%.

At present these two stars are tied for firet place with 16 victories and four defeats.

The contests tonight will be the first since the holidays. the cue- wielders having enjoyed a two weeks’ vacation.

Wanted—Name and address of per- sons interested in securing perma- nent employment ahd to receive the full proceeds of their labor. When our plan is perfected we shall en- deavor to furnish work to all who want it at ali times, so far as our means will permit. People’s Com- mittee on Unemployment, F. Gar- rison. Chairman, 1012 Pine street, St. Louis. . A Post-Dispatch reporter today went to the address given to investigate and found that the F. Garrison named as chairman is Flint Garrison, president and general manager of the Trades- men's Publishing Co., publishers of the Drygeodsman, of 1627 Washington ave- nue. In the office of the Drygoodsman, Gar- rison explained in detail their plan for the relief of the unemployed which is back of the want ads, and named the other members of the committee. These are: J. A. Phillips, 1332A Shawmut place, a Rocx Island conductor who for many years has been interested in the work of the Brotherhood of Railway Train- men; Charles A. Green, 2309 Gilmore avenue, a pattern maker for the Inter- national Shoe Co.; J. H. Parent, pro- prietor of a cleaning and dyeing estab- lishment at Olive street and Spring ave- nue, and Charles Lisher, 701 Victoria avenue, a brick manufacturer. Socialism and Single Tax. The plan, Garrison said, is based on a proposed application of the principles of Socialism and single tax. For its development the sum of $10,000 has been subscribed and the committee is working to obtain_a greater sum. This fund is considered by the mem- bers of the committee merely as & loan, although no security or specific promise of repayment is made to the contributers. It is proposed ultimately to pay back the contribution in full, with interest, if there are any profits #n the undertaking. The committee plan, when a suitable tract of land has been obtained, to send unemployed men, single or married, to tt and give them work. They will be provided with food and clothing and shelter and if they show a desire to ‘pvemain permanently on the land they probably will be given a definite allot- ment and aided in building a home. The theory, as explained by Garrison, is that by giving a man a chance to be- come a producer and allowing him to enjoy the fruits of his labor he would ‘become a creator of wealth and no lon- ger a drain on society. The men would be expected to repay whatever is ad- vanced them, but thereafter practically any entire profit would be their own.. It would be necessary, Garrison said, s fer the committee to assess a compara- tively. small percentage against each farmer to defray administrative ex- pense and to provide for the payment of taxes on the tract of land. Muat Live on Land. is expected that the ownership of would remain permanently in trustees. When a man is given an allotment he will be the free use of the land and an therein as long as he remains on it and cultivates. But if he leaves the land he cannot dispose of it and the title will revert to the committee. This, > vat be said, is to prevent the devel- opment of a landlord class which might move to the city and continue to live Sisgoong the labor of others on that land. committee today*had received five of noomege of land.

M. PAYNE. = EAR SIR—I am in receipt of your [) letter of inquiry concerning Ro- wena Roe, who, in applying for a position as stenographer, has given you my’ name as a reference. Unhesitatingly I can recommend Miss Roe to any one who requires the serv- ices of a stenographer, but is not par- | ticular as to the neatness of corre- spondence sent out from the office. If it is true that the best of us meke mistakes, I consider her then to be bet- ter than most of us. She can make her- self at home in any office where there is a mirror and where punctuality is not compulsory. She has little knowledge of figures—other than her own. I have it on her own authority that she is a perfect lady, descended from a genteel Southern family, and is working only pending the adjustment of her grandfather's estate. Probably it was there, amid those refined surroundings, that she learned to chew gum by the yard, vigorously and with audible sen- tences as “ain't got no right,” ‘‘see them flowers,”” “handn’t ought to of been,” and others equally correct. As a stenographer I unhesitatingly fure and clothes. untiring As a worker she is tionalist.
