He went at once to the White House. President Wilson read the Berlin dis- patobdes on the Lusitania situation while his train was running between Balti- more and Washington. He made no comment, but members of his party said they regarded the situation as un- favorable.” It was said the President had not finished considering the officiai dlispatches he received last night on his train. ‘>= Bernstorff Has Had No Word. Count von Bernstorff declined to dis- | ,,¢uss the Berlin dispatches because he had not received his Government’s an- , Swer, which was supposed to have started from the Berlin Foreign Office Feb. 1. 8 In ͤ official and diplomatie circles the _ impression prevailed that the contro- versy now had come to hinge on wheth - er the United States’ demands that Ger- many acknowledge the sinking of the Lusitania as an illegal act or whether it demands that the destruction of the neutrale who were aboard be acknowi- * édged as illegal. There was some spec- ulation as to whether the exact situa- tion on that point had been fully under- stood in Berlin. Out of many uncertainties, however, one fact stands, and it is that when Count von Bernstorff recently trans- mitted the last draft of the agreement to Berlin after having submitted it to Lansing, the Ambassador be- Secretary nered it would be acceptable to hie Government. The German Embassy gave no indica- ions of how it regarded the possible )outeome and reiterated that no final ‘opinion could be formed until the offi ‘'¢ial Instructions arrived. Dispatches on the Lusitania situation from Col. E. M. House, now on a special + mission in Europe for President Wilson. are believed to have been delivered to ay tithe President Vosterday on his’ special 5 a eee Col. House discussed the situation with high German officials, informing them of the position of the United States and receiving in turn first-hand information of their viewpoint. Details were not dis- closed in such dispatches as have been . * received here, but they reported Col. House found it unnecessary to remain „uin Berlin as long as he orginally in- « tended. It is said Col. House probably dis- cussed other subjects than the Lusi- eteania case with the German officials, that the Lusitania situation occu- the major portion of his dispatch to 885 President. iz The sem!-official statement of the For- elan Office forwarded to this country that there was “reasonable” hope that communication which had been start- ed to Count von Bernstorff would prove ng remained. It was said here that there are certain words which the Berlin officials be- ‘lieve could not be included in the fina! dettlement of the controversy, because or concern for German public opinion. It was thought certain that this phase had had been explained to Col. House and that he in turn has conveyed the ex- +) ‘planation to President Wilson. : It was said that the language in the aa tentative form of proposal submitted to bum Wet week fn regard enemy steamer S UCCESSFUL photographs and Louis University. observer through smoked glass. the sun’s equator.

Alven H. Nichols, % years old, of Dal- las, Tex., who was brought from Omaha, Nev., last night by Marshal Knickman of Webster Groves, at police headquarters today identified David Graves as the man who told him about having had trouble with a woman named Hudson at Webster Groves, two days after Mrs. Burd Hudson had been slashed in the throat by an unidenti- fied man as she was going home about 8 p. m. The attack upon Mrs. Hudson was made Wednesday night, Jan. 26. According to Nichols he reached St. Louis the following Friday on his way to Aurora, Neb., to investigate the death of an Alven Nichols, who left an estate of $50,000. He thought this might be his uncle, Alven Nichols. At Union Station he ynderstood a clerk to say the train for Nebraska left at 10:01 when in fact it left at 9:01. Thinking he had plenty of time, Nich- ols strolled down Market street and at Seventeenth street met a man who said his name was David Graves. He asked for a dime to get something to eat and then admitted he wanted it to buy a drink to “drown his sorrows.” He be- came confidential and told Nichols he had had trouble with a woman named Hudson in Webster Groves. At that times Nichols knew nothing of the at- tack on Mrs. Hudson and asked no more about the trouble. Nichols missed his train, but as he left St. Louis the next afternoon he picked up a copy of the Post-Dispatch in the smoking car and read that Graves had been arrested on suspicion.

BRITISH TRAWLER REFUSED AND 10 TEPPELIN IN SEA Abandoned More Than 20 Men Floundering in Water for Fear of Capture. — — GRIMSBY, Feb. 4.—One of the crew of the King Stephen. which has reported having passed a Zeppelin floundering in the North Sea, Wednesday, gives the following account of the wreck: “Just before daybreak. Wednesday, the lookout’s attention was attracted by lights flashing at a distance. They appeared to be signals proceeding from a steamer in distress, but on going rearer to investigate we discovered a huge mass of wreckage on the water. We stood by until daylight, when we found that the wreckage was that of a large German airship bearing identifica- tion mark L-19. Cabins Under Water. “The cabins of the Zeppelin were un- der water and part of the envelope had portion above water, still floating with a good deal of buoyancy. On a raised platform on top of the envelope were seven or eight of the airship’s crew, who hailed us in broken English. The group on the platform soon in- creased as a number of other man came vp the companionway leading to the Elatform. We counted 22 Germans. Only Nine in Trawler’s Crew. “We carried a crew of only nine and had no weapons. The skipper felt that it would be injudicious to take the crew of the Zeppelin aboard, as the Germans outnumbered us, and he feared they would take possession of the trawl- er and bring it as a prize to Ger- many. “He therefore left the wreckage and proceeded in search of a British naval vessel, to which he reported the occur- rence.“ The Zeppelin which was the L-19, probably was disabled by the Dutch coast artillery which fired on her while she was attempting to return to Ger- ny over Dutch territory. A dispatch Nes, in Ameland, Wednesday, said: also been Submerged, but there was a Military Committee. WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.—Major-Gen- eral Scott, chief of staff of the army, protested to the House Military Com- mittee today that Chairman Hay’s bill to increase regular army enlistments without creating additional regiments was not approved by army officers be- cause it was desirable from every mil- itary point of view to organize the army on the basis of tactical divisions. To do that, he said, additional regi- ment should be organized to give proper proportions of infantry,, artillery and cavalry. Revised drafts of the War Depart- ment plan were submitted to carry out recommendations of the War College. Gen. Scott reiterated that the best military policy was universal training. He urged the continental army as an es- sential feature of preparedness. Interested in Munition Plants. “Is it true,” asked Representative Littlepage, Democrat, of West Virginia, “that certain army officers are draw- ing pay from the United States Govern- ment and at the same time are finan- cially interested in private munitions plants in this country?” “I imagine so,” replied the General. “though there is nothing on file to show it.” Do you know of a single case where a retired army officer is selling mu- nitions to the United States?“ asked Representative Kahn, Republican, of California. “I do not,” said the General. President Wilson's” preparedness speaking was attacked by Senator Works, Republican, before the Senate Military Committee today while the Senator was presenting his plan to ap- portion Western lands among 200,000 men who would spend two months a year on military training and the re- mainder combatting the forces of na- ture. “While the President is preaching 4 aoctrine of excitement and fear.“ said he, and civic and industrial organiza- tions of the country are being turned into vehicles to frighten the people into an unreasonable preparedness, I do not have much hope for consideration of my plans.” Explains Military Service Bill. Senator Saulsbury of Delaware ex- plained his bill to compel civic service employes to volunteer for military duty. Twenty-five thousand men, or more than ane-fourth the present tota, strength of the standing army, are aeed- ed to insure adequate protection of the Panama Canal, Brigadier-General Clar- ence R. Edwards, commanding the canal garrison, told the Senate Military Com- mittee yesterday. Fixed fortifications, no matter how strong, cannot guard the zone, Gen. Ed- wards said and without a mobile army to back them up, the guns already there are a source of weakness, not strength. He declared the jungle on parts of the zone would be more of a protection than a hindrance to an approaching enemy. “But this is fer from all,“ he added. “At a distance of from 17 to 20 miles from the axis of the canal on the Pa- cific side, the country is not only free from jungle and the ordinary tropical growths, but it is as open as are parts of New Mexico and Lower California. There an enemy is offered every facil- ity for landing mobile troops and reach- ing by easy marches the vitals of the canal—the firaflores and Pedro Miguel locks. The most casual reflection by any military student familiar with the facts should show that we must never let an enemy approach within 10 miles of the locks. Would Train Employes, “The contemplated permanent force of civil employes is from 2000 to 2500 whites and 10,000 blacks. In the event of war likely to involve the canal, it 1s probable that many of them would vol- unteer. I recommend legislation, there- fore, that shall require all male civilian employes of the canal of suitable age and physical condition to obligate them- selves to volunteer and in preparation for this to offer themselves for a period of at least two months’ training during. the first two years of their employment and thereafter 10 days each vear.“ “What I have said in respect to the importance of the canal zone applies with equal force and almost word for word to Oahu, one of the Hawaiian Islands,“ Gen. Edwards continued. The existing and contemplated garrison 18 seriously deficient in strength and the guns now emplaced are dangerous to use until supported by sufficient mobile Convention Demonstration, It became known today that Mrs. Car- rie Chapman Catt's visit to St. Louis next Wednesday will result in arrange- ments by which suffragists will try to get the Democratic national convention to place an equal suffrage plank in its platform. The convention will be held at the Coliseum in June. Mrs. Catt, who is president of the National American Woman’s Suffrage Association and of the International Woman's Suffrage League, was in Chi- cago today. She said St. Louis mem- bers of the league were making ar- rangements for a parade of women in St. Louis when the Democratic conven- tion is in session. While in Chicago Mrs. Catt began ar- rangements for a similar demonstra- tion in Chicago in June, during the Re- publican national convention. The suf- fragist leader hopes to have both parties adopt he equal suffrage plank. St. Louis members of the league ad- mitted that they hoped the parade would impress the Democrats with the cause of votes for women. National suffrage headquarters will be opened in St. Louis and Chicago days in advance of the national conventions, and suffragists from all parts of the country have pledged themselves to visit Chicago and St. Louis to participate in the demonstrations. St. Louls suffragists said the full ma- chinery of their campaign would be used in bringing pressure to bear upon the Democrats, and they were hopeful that it would result in their carrying their point. EAST ST. LOUIS MAN CONVICTED OF MURDERING ST. LOUIS WOMAN a Relly M. Smith Was Tried in Omaha Under Second Degree Charge; Said Shooting Was Accident. OMAHA, Neb., Feb. 4.—Relly M. Smith, 69 years old, of East St. Louis, yesterday was found guilty of murder in the second degree for shooting Mrs. Frances Campbell of St. Louis, Oct. 381 The penalty is imprisonment for from 20 years to life. A. S. Ritchie, counsel for Smith, said today that he would file a motion for a new trial. Neither Mrs. Smith, the gray-haired wife of the prisoner, who has been at his side through the trial, nor Smith, would make any comment on the jury’s verdict. Smith admitted he held the revolver, the bullet of which wounded Mrs. Campbell, but he said the weapon was discharged accidental- ly while he was scuffling with Mrs. Campbell’s husband for its “possession. EAST ST. LOUIS DRYS FAIL 70 GET ENOUGH LOCAL OPTION SIGNERS As a.Result Issue Will Not Be Put Up to Voters at the April Election. The East St. Louis Law Enforce- ment League announced today that it had failed to obtain a sufficient number of signatures for a local op- tion election to be held in connection with the municipal election in April. The number required was 3480. The number obtained was a little less than 3000. The league, in its statement, attrib- uted the failure to the short time in which the work had to be done, to the fact that many who would have signed were not registered and to the fact that many were afraid to sign. The petitions will be complet- ed, the statement says, in time for a local option election in connection with the judicial election in June. k. A. BAYRD LEFT OVER $242,000 Had Real Estate as Well as Much Personal Property. An inventory of the estate of Edward A. Bayrd, who died Dec. 13 at his home, in the Probate Court today. He was in the pig iron business. The inventory shows personal prop- erty valued at $242,721.75. The real estate consists of the residence on Washington boulevard and property at 1001-1006 Wash street. In his will Bayrd left $0,000 in trust to his son, Joseph, who is in a sanitarium in Wisconsin, and the bal- ance to his daughter, Mrs. H. Switz- ler of 235 Westgate avenue. GOETHALS BEFORE COMMITTEE 5245 Washington boulevard, was filed | Lecturer om International Law, St. Louis University Law School. The ruling of Secretary Lansing thas the British steamer Appam will be dealt with as a prize and be sequestered dur- ing the war, constitutes a complete ro- versal of the spirit of the ruling of for- mer Secretary Bryan in the almost identical case of the British steamer Farn, which was interned at San Juan in January, 1915, not as a prize, but as a warship auxiliary. Mr, Bryan’s ruling was most unsatisfactory, not only be- cause he ‘eft unsettled the question of the ultimate ownership of the Farn, but also in that his ruling reversed the es- tablished policy of the United States against the legality of the conversion of merchant ships into warships on the high seas. The Farn left Cardiff for Montevideo Oct. 5, 1915, with 3000 tons of coal, was captured oy the German cruiser Karls ruhe and made to accompany that cruiser as a collier under the contro’ of a prize crew. Jan. 12, the prize crew put into San Juan for provisions. While provisioning, British warships appeared in the vicinity, making it highly dan- gerous for the prize crew to take the Farn out. The German Government asked for her internment as a prise; the British Government requested its immediate release. Secretary Bryan’s Ruling. Mr. Bryan replied: It appears obvious that a belliger- ent may use a prize in its service and that the prize thereby becomes stamped with a character dependent upon the nature of the service. it is upon this view of the case that the United States Government concluded to treat the vessel as a tender, which character accords with her presumed service to the German fleet. The Farn was given 2 hours to leave port and failing to do so, was interned as a German fleet auxiliary. Mr. Bryan's doctrine, that the status of a vessel in a neutral port is deter- mined by the character of the service in which it has been engaged, even though it be an adjudicated prize, was a novel one in international law—in fact his ruling was made contrary to the recommendations of the Neutrality Board of the United States, composed of James Brown Scott, former Solicitor of the State Department; Capt. H. 8. Knapp of the Navy Board and Capt. J. H. Oliver of the Naval Intelligence M- fice, which was instituted to advise the State Department. This board con- MIRS: Mot WEEPS WHILE ARGUMENTS ARE BEING MADE PROVIDENCE, R. I., Feb. (Mrs. Dlitzabeth F. Mohr sat within full view of the jury today and wept while her attorney, John J. Fitzgerald, declared in his closing argument that the State had failed to show she had hired two ne. groes, Cecil V. Brown and Henry H. Spellman, to murder her husband, Dr C. Franklin Mohr. Fitzgerald’s address was the last word in behalf of the woman around whom the State had at- tempted to establish a murder plot charge. Attorney-General Rice will close for the State this afternoon. Fitzgerald said the State had sub- jected his client to an injustice” in its refusal to permit her to be tried alone. Referring to Mrs. Mohr, who was in tears, Fitzgerald sald several of the witnesses for the prosecution “have been shouting, ‘Crucify her.“ FAKE GOLD BRICK WORTH $8.40 News from New York that the police of that city had placed a value of $750 on the faro gang’s gold brick caused much amusement at police headquarters here this morning. It was recalled that Henry Friedman, an expert, had applied the acid test to the brick and found that it was brass. The brick weighed 80 pounds. The mar- ket quotation on brass this morning was $10.50 per 100 pounds. The brick was found at the home of George R. Pohl- man, 1050 South King’s highway, the St. that to recognize it as a German ileet auxiliary would violate our own at- titude with regard to the conversion of merchant ships. Final Disposition Undecided. To the question of the British Am- bassador, as to whom the United State» Government would turn over the Farn at the close of the war, there was ro reply. Mr. Lansing in the Appam case tee reres the question of the character of service of the Appam, and recognizes buld'y that the vessel is a mere prize brought inte the Urited “tatea waters, where it may be sequestered. - The rvi- ing leaves no doubt as to our reccg- nition that it is German property through valid capture, subpest only o formal prize proceedings. The situation of the Farn will, no doubt, be clarified by the same ruling. The German prize code, promulgated July 1, 1915, notifies its officers of the existence of a treaty with the United States, under which the vessels of war of each nation “shall carry freely wheresoever they please the vessels and effects taken from their enemies, without being obliged to pay any duties, charges or fees to officers of the ad- miralty of the customs or any other; nor shall ‘such prizes be arrested, searched or put under legal process when they come to or enter the ports of the other party.” Old Treaty in Operation. In so far as this treaty provision has not been modified by any of the Hague conventions to which Germany and the United States are mutually signatory, it is undoubtedly in operation. The Ger- man Government has admitted it to its own loss in the case of the William G. Frye where is assumed the obligation to pay for cargo which, in the absence of the treaty, would not have existed. The United States cannot consistently avail itself of the benefits of this treaty while at the same time attempting to escape its burdeas, so long as those ob- ligations do not involve a violation of the modern concaptions of neutral con- duct. While there has been a tendency on the part of ‘neutrals to deny belliger- ents the right to bring prizes into their ports on the ground that such action may be rendering actual benefits to one or the other belligerent, the question is not one that is clearly fixed, nor does it seem, in view of the treaty, that the United States is compromising its neu- trality by such action, ANOTHER fp BY PRESIDENT IS CONSIDERED WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.—President Wilson reached Washington at 135 o' clock today from St. Louis, returning from his six-day tour of the Middle West in behalf of his program for na- tional preparedness. The President is convinced from his observations during his trip that the people among whom he traveled are with him on the ques- tion of preparedness and will insist the Congress take speedy action in the mat- ter. When the President's train reached Indianapolis at 5:45 p. m. yesterday for a five-minute stop, a large crowd greet- ed him at the station. When cries were made for a speech, he appeared on the platform of his car and said: “Indiana is all right.“ The crowd then shouted fcr, Mrs. Wilson, but the President told them she was resting and she did not appear. Members of the Indiana Demo- cratic Club sent Mrs. Wilson a large tunch of American beauty roses. President Wilson’s advisers believe he has explained clearly wh. he considers immediate preparedness imperative, has wcn many converts to the movement, and has given new impetus to a discus- sion of the cause. From the sympathet- ic attitude of most of his audiences, from the enthusiasm his every appear- ance in public has evoked, from the huge crowds which have greeted him, they have drawn the conclusion that the people, at least in the Middle West, overwhelmingly favor his plans.

The Philippines could be seized by 1 an enemy, with the exception of Corrigidor Island, which would hold Manila Bay open to American ships and closed to enemy craft, Gen. Edwards said.

Edwards proposed that enlist- ment in the regular army de on the basis of two ears, with the colors and four in re: rve; but believed a soldier should be able to earn his discharge into the reserve in one year if he proved efficient.

Rear Admiral Victor Blue, chief of the Bureau of Navigation, declared to the House Naval Committee today that while the American navy is “better off today than it was three years ago, and better off today than it ever has been,” the most vital weakness is shortage of officers. Admiral Fletcher's much discussed statement that the fleet was short 5000 enlisted men, he said, was misleading, because present complements for the ships were established years ago. He presented tables to show that American ships carried more men but fewer offi- cers than foreign, vessels of the same type.

Acid Is Cause of Indigestion A well-known authority states that stomach trouble and indigestion is nearly always due to acidity —acid stomach—and not, as most folks be- lieve, from a lack of digestive juices. He states that an excess of hydro- chioric acid in the stomach reta ds digestion and starts food fermenta- tion, then our meals sour like gar- bage in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases which inflate the stomach like a toy balloon.

Wusin, who has been in Africa in the interests of the Agassiz Museum at Harvard. | Dr. Wulsin says he made friends with Ruito, a tribal chief, by liberally dosing him with calomel and quinine. In this way he got extra porters to help carry his supplies. “Ruito appreciated the medicine 80 much, however, Dr. Wulsin continued, “that all his sick people came to me for treatment. There were hundreds of them. Perhaps half were incurables and two-thirds of the others could only be cured by long care in a hospital. “However, all had to get something, so a clinic was organized under a tree, with a bucket of epsom salts, a bucket of permanganate, vaseline, gum oil or Worcestershire sauce and a couple of husky porters to apply the remedies. “Epsom salts was prescribed for any- thing inside, permanganate for anything outside, vaseline for the faith cure, and gum oil and ‘Worcestershire sauce for those who had nothing the matter with them. In that way we finally were allotted 70 extra porters to carry our food sup- plies.“ Dr: Wulsin also tells of a Madagas- car “‘flivver” with all the virtues of that luckless machine except motor power It is called the Filanzana, is an institu- tion pecullar to Madagascar, and con- sists of a chair, seat and back, between two long parallel poles, thé whole car- ried by four men. Twelve men form the car crew, changing every hundre! yards and not abating the speed of the vehicle. In this peculiar outfit, says Dr. Wulsin, one can cover great distances ia a day, follow the most atrocious paths, go up and down stairs and almost be carried up the side of a vertical preci- pice. OSAGE ORANGE WOOD IS THOUGHT TO BE DYE BASIS St. Louisan Expects to Build Plant in Texas as Final Test of Experiments. AUSTIN, Tex.. Feb. 4—If R. W. Hockaday of St. Louis, Mo., succeeds, the wood of the osage orange or bois d’arc, which grows profusely in some parts of Texas and Oklahoma, may be used for the manufacture of dyestuffs. Recent chemical tests are said to have proved the value and possibilities of tiis wood as a dye-producing material. The process of extracting the coloring fluid is simple, Hockaday says, and the yield is so abundant as to make the proposi- tion unusually attractive, particularly in view of the existing high prices of dyestuffs. It is the purpose of Hockaday and tre men who will be associated with him iu the enterprise to build a plant for the manufacture of the dyestuffs at Dallas or some other point in Texas. MISS... .se RYMAN THOUGHT TO BE VANISHING PHYSICIAN Charm Inscfibed With Wyoming Sur- geon’s Name Found After Kan- . san Disappears. COLUMBUS, Kan., Feb. 4.—Daniel R. Beardsiee, who became the largest dealer in poultry in Southeast Kansas while here, and who disappeared Dec. 9, is believed to be Dr. Mortimer Jesurun, @ surgeon of note and former Mayor of Douglas, Wyo., and report has it that be is in Los Angeles, Cal., un- der another name. Disappearance and name changes are declared to be some- thing of a fad with the man, for which there is no known reason. A Knight Templar watch charm found in the room occupied by Beardlee was iuecribed, “Dr. M. Jesurun, Douglas, Wyo.”’ Inquiry and comparison of photographs apparently identified Beardsiee and Jesurun as one,‘ and brought the information that he left Wyoming, 11 years ago. It also dis- closed a mysterious departure from in February, 1906. It has been learned that the wife of Dr. Jesurun dropped dead in Colorado Springs, Colo., shortly before the Span- ish-American War, and that he enlisted and served in the Philippines, winning the title of Major. He appears to have plenty of money, Is polished and makes friends readily.

By a Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. HILLSBORO, III., Feb. 4.—Further in- vestigation of the affairs of Henry, R Crawford, the real estate dealer and church worker, several of whose clients have found that deeds of trust bought from him have been released and appar ently are without value, has disclosed wther transactions of a dubious nature. Miss Ednah Gordon, Crawford's sten- ographer, who is in charge of his of- fice, states that a-plan is on foot to set- tle his tangled financial affairs. She refuses to tell what the plan ‘s, or to discuss it. She said Crawford had re- name. So far as is known no Hillsboro lawyer is representing Crawford, and to suit of Mrs. Mary M. D..Cory, seeking to have Crawford’s release of a $4000 deed of trust set aside as illegal and fraudulent. This case is set for the April term of the Circuit Court. Two Deeds on Same Lot. One of, Crawford’s transactions has tc do with two deeds to the same piece ot property executed by Crawford to aifferent parties about the same time. Neither of these deeds had been filed for record until it became known that Crawford's affairs were under inVestiga- tion. The holders of the two deeds at once hastened to have them recorded, with the result that the first one filed bears a date only an hour and a half earlier than the other. The first of these deeds was filed at 9 a. m., aJn. 2% It was executed by Henry R. Crawford and Bila M. Craw- ford, his wife, Aug. 15, 1915, and conveys to J. E. McDavid for $1000 the north- west half of lot 5, block 24, in the vil- lage of Raymondville, 10 miles north of Hillsboro. The second deed was made Sept. 1, 1915, and filed at 10 a. m., Jan. 2). It conveys to William H. Wallis of Yanesville, for consideration of $1 a number of pieces of property, among them being listed the lot described in the deed to McDavid. The refusal of Crawford’s wife to allow a reporter to see Crawford, who has been in seclusion at his home for more than a week, on the ground that he was dangerously ill, made it impossible to necertain whether there had been a mis- take in describing the property conveyed by one or both of these deeds. Miss Gordon seemed to know nothing about it. $600 Deal With Widow. Another transaction under investiza- tion is that of Mrs. Susan Kessinger, a soldier's Widow, who let Crawford have $600 she saved from her pension. Craw- -ffi-law, Lee Watf, tak. ir Hillsboro. Mrs. Kessinger chose to make the lean indirectly, it is said, be- dren to know of it. Warf gave Crawford his not for the $600 and also made a deed of trust in Crawford's favor. Crawford gave Mrs. Kessinger his personal note for the $600 ane did not turn over to her the deed of trust, she says. This deed of trust :s held by a Hillsboro bank, under assign- ment from Crawford. Mrs. Sid Boucher is also trying to find out what became of some money she says she gave Crawford to buy a piece of town property for her. When her first husband died she got his life insurance and later married again. She wanted to invest her insurance money without her second husband’s knowledge and asked Crawford to buy a particular piece of property. She says she never reecived the deed. The records show Crawford bought the property in his own name and later sold it to Mrs. Mary G. Ware. Erasure on Records. A transaction that has caused consid- erable wonder in the office of Hugh Hall, Circuit Clerk and Recorder, dates back to 190 and involves an erasure of the records. May 13, 1905, John F. White borrowed 32000 from George W. Paisley, giving a deed of trust on a prominent business corner in Hillsboro tc secure his note. Carwford acted as the agent in this transaction. The records, book 14, page Sil, show this deed of trust was released Oct. 7, 1905, when, White says, the obligation was paid. White did not get the note and was surprised a short time ago when a Springfield, III., bank asked him tu take some action relative to paying the note, which the bank said it held as collateral for an unpaid obligation of Crawford. Upon investigation White found an erasure in the record. Ihe books in which deeds of trust were recorded at that time had no marginal space for the record of release. A special book was provided for that purposé and it was customary when a trust deed was re- leased to mark it with a rubber stamp, reading: For release see book page —, the numbers of the book and page being filled in with ink. Such a stamp upon the Recorder's copy of the deed of trust securing White's $2000 note had been erased with a penknife... The erasure was rought, und some of the red ink still showe.! where the stamp had been. The Re- eorder looked up his release record and finding the release there, again stamped It is stated by a friend of White that White has recovered this note, Crawford having sent other col- lateral to the Springfeild Bank to take There is considerable . speculation among lawyers here as to what action Crawford will take to attempt to straighten out his affairs. There is talk among them of a bankruptcy proceed- ing. Even in that case it is not certain any corsiderable proportion of Craw- ford’s debts could be pail. He owns some town property, but the improve- is said to be incumbered. ‘ There is some ‘quest:on as to what Crawford did with his money. He had be used every day. What the bowels they were not known to be extrava- sant. lie was 1 liberal contributor to the Methodist Church, of which he was a member, to charity, and to all public undertakings, He lived in a rented house. His stenographer, Miss Gor- on, said she had let him have some of er money, cured. She said her salary was consid- erably in arrears, but would not say how much.

Unfortunately, such a rule eliminates most foods which are pleasant to the taste as well as those which are rich in blood, flesh and nerve-building proper- ties. This is the reason why dyspeptics and stomach sufferers are usually s0 thin, emaciated and lacking in that vital energy which can only come from a well- fed body. For the benefit of those suf- ferers who have been obliged to exclude from their diet all starchy. sweet or fatty food. and are trying to keep up a miserable existence on gluten products it is suggested that you try a meal of any food or foods which you like, in moderate amount, taking immediately afterwards a teaspoonful of Bisurated Magnesia in a little hot or cold water.

A campaign to pass the ordinances is teing directed by the United Welfare Association, which tomorrow will cir- culate pamphlets containing a legal opinion by Sherman Steele, lecturer on constitutional law at St Louis Uni- versity, that the local ordinances are valid and, constitutional. . Negro lawyers who have attempted unsuccessfully to prevent the holding of 1 an election on the ground that the in- itiative clause in the city charter is unconstitutional, are said to be planning } suit against the ordinances on the ground of constitutional conflict. Steele says in his opinion that the courts have uniformly held the intermingling of ne- groes and whites is fraught with dan- ger, and that it is a legitimate exercise of the police power of a municipality to separate their places of residence. The Supreme Courts of Kentucky, Vir- ginia and Maryland have rendered such decisions, Steele pointed out. In the Maryland decision the court held t would invalidate the ordinance if it at- tempted to disturb present occupancy, but Steele disagrees with this. Steele contends the city may disturb the present occupancy of negroes or whites, if it has power to forbid future occupancy by either. Valentines Free With Your Bread.

If this should continue for thirty years, without figuring any interest on the losses, the original investment of over six million dollars will be confiscated. The amounts and sources of revenue and the actual en- penses for the year 1915, which has been an average year, are as follows: EARNINGS From Suburban Traffic between the Twelfth Street Station to Granite City, at the five- cent fare now in effect From the use of the Bridge and Terminals by Interurban Lines 2 16 680 From Miscellaneous Sources, including vehi- 062.17 844150 cular tolls, Station rights, etc. Total Gross Earnings : EXPENSES Operating Costs General Taxes Franchise Tax paid to the City of St. Lous. Depreciation Reserve, on a four per cent, com- pound interest, semi-annual sinking fund basis Total expense sims $ 76,620.56 OPERATING RESULTS N et Earnings from operation for the year 1915 ; Actual annual interest charges for money bor- rowed to aid in financing this undertak- ing 288, 800.00 The net amount that must be earned to yield a six per cent return on the investment 360,000.00 Actual Return on the Investment about 1. 2 Deficit in earning the interest charges about 190,000 Deficit in earning a 6 per cent return about 788,000.00 The Illinois Traction System pays for the use of the Bridge and Terminals, by its freight and er inter- urban cars, twenty per cent of the revenues on business and forty per cent of the revenues on all out- going business. This is regardless of the length of haul or the origin or destination of the traffic on the 420 miles t interurban lines which the Bridge connects with St. As the outbound business is greater that the inbound b ness, more than thirty per cent of all the revenues, crea by the St. Louis entrance, enjoyed by these interurban lines is paid to the support of the McKinley Bridge and Terminals. The Operating Expenses, with the taxes, amount, on the interurban — of the Illinois Traction System, to about seventy e of the gross revenue. ore all of the benefits derived from the St. Louis entrance are given over to the McKinley Bridge and Terminals. These payments by the Interurban lines for terminal facilities amount to about seventy cents per car mile of operation, which is twice the amount per mile earned by the interurban cars on their own lines. This magnificent Bridge and these elaborate terminal facilities were built in expectation of a reasonable return consistent with money safely and soundly invested. Te St. Louis and the Tri-Cities were given the ! t Blee- trie Bridge in the world, rapid suburban and a great system of electric railroads connecting them with the wealth of resources and the immense population of Central Illinois, The steel girders of the McKinley Bridge spanned a barrier which had for years deflected to this territory naturally contributary to St. Louis. And reward of the builders of this project, so vital to St. Louis and the Tri-Cities, is a constantly growing deficit. In our next advertisement we will show the results of the Suburban operation only and our plans for e this situation. ST. LOUIS ELECTRIO TERMINAL RAILWAY COMPANY, By E. D.

NAME FROM erat Wie ences “NEW YORK, Feb. 4.—While Mrs. Jean ald Saint Cyr, formerly Mrs. Silent“ sah. is refusing in Philadelphia to 12 we public into her confidence, C. 4 Woodhouse, one of Saint Cyr's boon 1 admits at Palm Beach he knew for a long time that Saint vas masquerading under an as- name, and Oscar St. Cyr, from Hack“ Thompson of Texas bor d his high-sounding name, has told * id and Post-Dispatch in an in- whow and why this was done. St. Cyr is a former swimming b descendant of a French family * Cys that have lived in the United geveral generations These St . the “Saint,” or have pe it altogether. Oscar was born ar, Neb., 38 years ago. At 15 he His father, a mer- Hant, now retired, is living at Rose- | Cal. His grandfather was the Narcisse Cyr who occupied sev- fai impo ‘ant Baptist pulpits in New 8 nd and taught French in Boston Js St. Cyr said he was indignant the use to which his name had been i had communicated with Saint ping that Some acknowledgment nation might be forthcoming. decided to tell the facts to the e Snapshot of Bini Gee as a Fisherman At Palm Beach a avoid him and his friends and finally to discontinue his acquaintance. On the day that Mrs. Simmons intro- duced bim to Thompson, St. Cyr said, Thompson's attention was attracted by a scrap book which St. Cyr kept of newspaper clippings concerning his swimming exploits. Thompson immedi- ately took an interest in the name. St. Cyr recounts the enen wrich en- sued, as follows: “ ‘My!’ Thompson 1 ‘are these | write-ups about you?’ I replied’ in the affirmative. ‘How do vou pronounce your name?’ ‘St. Cyr,’ said I. And then I spelled it out ‘S-a-i-n-t,’—explaining that St.“ stood for ‘Saint.’ He was about to question me further, but I an ticipated his thought when I said, ‘It is a French name and there are very few people dy that name in America, per- haps not half a dozen in all.“ “*You speak French, of course?’ he asked. ‘No,’ was my reply. He fur- ther said it was one of the ‘loveliest’ names he had ever heard and that he wished he had it. I succeeded in making my escape. “At a subsequent interview he asked me why I did not go to France, learn the language and come over. to America ‘for the first time’ and ‘grab’ some heiress. I replied that I was satisfied with my prospects without ‘any adven- tures. time, but I never went out with him. One day he said he was going to take my name and try to capture some wealthy old woman. ! “Jack Thompson Saint Cyr.” “I did not take this seriously, but later, to my great surprise, he handed me an elegantly engraved card which „I did not show that I was displeased, but went later to his room and de- stroyed the cards and plate. After about a year in New--York, Os- “We became somewhat friendly in' — ont “Saint Cyr Also Borrowed An Name for Dog LM BEACH, Feb. 4. dt Bye BHxuKALD EDWARD J de Saint Cyr,” the erst- while Jack“ Thompson of Waco, Tex., was not content with assuming. an aristocratie name for himself, but also borrowed one for his dog, according to his friend and intimate, Clark Kley \, ood- house. The original name of the Rus- sian wolf hound, with which “Saint Cyr’ frequeatly has been photographed, was Ripper.“ Woodhouse: said today. When Saint Cyr’ came to Palm Beach, however, he wanted a fancy name for his pet, and hav- ing heard that “Watlands Klon- dyke’’ was a great show dog which had captured all the prizes in Russia, he gave the name to his dog. car St. Cyr left there and did not re- turn until in 1910. Because Thompson had taken his name, St. Cyr made in- quiries. about him and learned that he had developed the name from “Jack Thompson Saint Cyr’’ into “Jean Har- ald Edward de Saint Cyr,’’ which he still calls himself. A tailor whom they both knew told him that “Saint Cyr’ had married a wealthy old woman who had bought him an automobile and sup- plied him with a traveling companion and a valet and a chauffeur. Saint Cyr’ had bought half a dozen suits of clothes from the tailor. I did not follow Thompson up or seek s meeting until 10 days ago,” St. Cyr said, when I learned that he was to be exposed. I then telegraphed him to present himself in New York at once and straighten the matter out as grace- fully. as possible. I have since received mysterious visits from suave young men who represented themselves as his friends.“ Clarke Oakley Woodhouse, intimate of Saint Cyr, is 22 years old. He is the son | | of the late Joseph Stuyvesant Wood-! house, for many years head of the J. S. Woodhouse Co., dealers in agricul- tural implements. Woodhouse has an income from his father’s estate and is said to live within it. His brother, Harold S. Woodhouse, said today con- cerning the report of their relationship to the late Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish, that they wouldn’t even have known her by sight. W9ODHOUSE KNEW “SAINT CYR” WAS AN ASSUMED NAME By a Staff Correspondent of the New York World and the Post-Dispatch. PALM BEACH, Fia., Feb. 4.—Clarke Oakley Woodhouse, chum and former guest of Jean H. E. Saint Cyr, declared today that the stories being printed in the New York World and the St. Louis Post-Dispatch about Saint Cyr and Swem were absolutely true and that he had known most of the facts a long time, although he did not knaw Saint Cyr’s real name. “When Bob Swem introduced me to Saint Cyr he introduced him as Jack something, I cannot remember what, but it was not Saint Cyr. Swem told me 3 week after I had met Saint Cyr that he used a ‘phony’ name and that Saint Cyr was really Jack’s name. I did not know that Saint Cyr had a sister or any felatives in Rochester, but the rest of the story I know to be true, and I knew it long ago.“ Woodhoue gave to the Wortd and the Post-Dispatch correspondent “yesterday his version of the trip to Rochester, N. Y., when Saint Cyr and C. Woodhouse” registered at the Hotel Seneca, Jan. 5 and 6, 1913. Saint Cyr’s sister, Mrs. Nan Thompson Smith, denies that Saint Cyr visited. Rochester to see her, and her husband, William A. Smith, the recent- ly retired shoemaker, declares his wife had no millionaire brother in New York. Still the neighbors heard of the | ‘‘millionaire brother in New Tork,“ and e i i! a MMA 1 N i 0 A Aae 1 See the interesting and Picture Houses o first Want Page, Sunday. ive programs of St. Louis on the instru in the Redfield-Saint Cyr household it was known that Saint Cyr had a sister, Mrs. William A. Smith, in Rochester, to whom he made occasional visits. Saint Cyr’s Secretiveness. Woodhouse’s account of the trip to Rochester illustrates the secretiveness of Saint Cyr. Saint Cyr told him he had to go out of town (New York) on a busi- ness trip but did not ask him to go along until he suggested it. They went to- gether to Rochester, where Saint Cyr excused himself for half, a day, and they returned to New York the next day. Saint Cyr gave no information concern- ing his business in Rochester except to say that it was in connection with prop- erty which he owned there. Woodhouse said he could tell an interesting story of his four years of acquaintance with Saint Cyr and Woodhouse, but was Ko- ing to “stick to Saint Cyr” because he had been a good friend of his. Woodhouse said Samt Cyr seldom wrote anything, but always had Swem answer letters. Swem, he said, was bet- ter educated than Saint Cyr and spoke German fluently, while Saint Cyr did not know a word of either French or German. | CARELESS USE OF SOAP SPOILS THE HAIR Soap should be used very carefully, if you want to keep your hair looking its best. Most soaps and prepare: shanipoos contain too much alkali, This dries the sealp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it. The best thing for steady use is just ordinary mulsified coccanut oil (which is pure and greaseless), and is better than the most expensive soap or anything else you can use. One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair with wate/ and rub it in. It makes an abun- dance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft. and the hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to manage. You ean get mulsified cocoanut oil at any pharmacy, it’s very cheap, and a few ounces will supply every mem- ber of the family for months.—ADV.

The Golden Horn, for such was the name of the one tavern in Northfield, changed hands one week later, James Frawley, sole proprietor. If Jim’s method of reaching a final goal of good at the cost of incidental wicked- ness of no ordinary character along his line of progress was crude, it had sensational embellishments. Mr. Winslow, arriving at Northfield and beginning his duties, was amazed to find this “brand from the burning’ dispensing fiery fluid to the weak and thirsty of Northfield. He met Jim on the street and hinted gently at his backward step. Jim was iron. He knew his business—good day! None of the brawlers invaded the mission. Jim kept them too bnsy for that. He ran the Golden Horn at a mad-riot pace. He dispensed free cigars and liquor lavishly. He en- couraged brawls, he sold to minors and at the end of two weeks his var- fous misdemeanors justified the au- thorities in canceling his license and closing up the place.

Mr. Winslow. Young lady, he’s wearing his heart away thinking about you. You see I know: it. I just give you the tip.” Ada blushed, more beautiful than ever.

DAM, oh, Adam, our two mothers A took me in hand yesterday for pcor dears, that they were instructing mie in the art of being a successful wife, but if my young soul had not been able te throw off all their wise hints and suggestions and warnings I am sure I should have hanged myself at dawn this morning. If what your mother says about you is true, Adam, I am not going to marry you. I shall adopt you in- stead. During the luncheon where they held the autopsy in advance of our mar- riage I sat and listened to them patient- ly, patronizingly—when I listened at all. But you know the way we all feel in our hearts about the generation before. When I was not listening I was thinking of you and of two lines from Rupert Brooke’s Menelaus and Helen:“ “He swung his sword and crashed into the dim Luxurious bower flaming like a god.” That is the way I see you. I'm afraid I went into.a trance—a trance in which I felt your arms around me, as they were when I proposed to you and said that you had not asked me to marry you because you cared too much for me to want to make me your wife. Then I thought of the best description of a woman's love I have ever seen, one line frem The Second Blooming:’’ “She felt herself flowering.“ For that is what you make me feel! A year ago my life was brown and dead as a rose garden in winter, and surely there is nothing more forlorn than that. But today every thought that I have blossoms toward you FOR you, and every thought is teautiful and fragrant, warm and deep with gunlight, and my heart is just a dark red rose to pluck and give to you if only to make you smile for a moment that faint, reluctant, unbelieving smile. So there I sat, Adam, glowing and trem- bling and listening to the sound of cym- bals in my blood, when suddenly your mother’s gentle, matter-of-fact voice broke through my dream. “I hope, Eve,” she said, “that you are àa very good housekeeper, because I may as well tell vou now that Adam is awfully fussy about his food.’ I knew then how a star feels when it falls and how Lucifer, son of the Morn- ing, felt when he plunged into eternal night. And then MY mother’s voice came. “Eve, you must pay attention to that, you know. Better find out now es his steak cooked. 2 three hours of talk. They believed, | Leap Year Love Letters From the New Eve to the Old Adam By Nixola Greeley-Smith. is useless to argue with a hungry man.“ Dear, dear Adam, for a moment I for- got that I was in love with a god, and it seemed to me that I was about to join my life with a dinosaurus or any other prehistoric monster you can think of. Are you like that? Women are not. I have never known a woman who was any less amiable before being fed or any more reasonable afterward. And yet we get hungry; we like good food. I can cook, as you have good reason to know, Adam. I thought I had thrown off the effect of these maternal warnings, but I have not. Do cable me as soon as you receive this that you are not a dinosau- rus, or else let me adopt you as my baby instead of taking you for my hus- band. Mother asked me just now what I have been crying about and I told her. “Dear little Eve,“ she said, you will fii d that to be a good wife means to be a mother to a human being whom you permit to treat you like a child.” Oh, Adam, must I be your MOTHER EVE?” Steinway & Sons Player-Piano Worth $1000 for sale for $465 This is a grand bar- gain in the _ well known make.

She met Him at an evening party, and it was one of those affairs that is called love at first sight. That first evening her re- flection went some- thing like this: He is so handsome! He has such pol- ished manners! And how he can dance!”’ And then his glances in her di- rection during the evening sent her imagination whirl- ing as to the next time she might see him. For it was already arranged—an- other party. The two became very much interested in each other. Love soon. followed. But with that delight- ful decleration there came a disappoint- ing disclosure. Marriage was a matter for the fature—perhaps in the distant future. The young man had not the wherewithal. He was so busy learning all the new dances, paying up for the latest cut of clothes from the tailor, that he had not saved anything. Of course he could not ask bis be- loved to share poverty with him, he told her ee ht. tb Was she sore oe — = SAVE YOUR HAIR AND BEAUTIFY IT! WITH ~DANDERINE” Spend 25 cents!

Now, this young woman had some money of her own. It was a small amount, but sufficient to kcep her com- fortable and happy; his poverty seemed t most to prove an added attraction. For could she not prove how much she adored him by patience and waiting? The young man, instead of reducing his expenses anc changing «5s cailor in order to save for the only girl rather looked forward to something happening to bring about the desired | union. He figured some geod luek thing would come along. As he leved life more than love, he continued in the enjoyment of it. Yet, somehow, luck did not come his way, because pluck wa. King. On the contrary, it turned the other way, for the young man lost his job. He had one or two menial, lesser jobs offered him, but, having attained a ‘“‘so- cial position,’. he feared he would lose it if he went down in the scale of sal- ary. So he talked it all over with the young woman and explained how SURELY something would soon come along. Of course, his explanation was very long and diplomatic and LOVING. But at the end very adroitly he asked her would she not lend him a little money “to tide over.“ Of course she did, dnd assured him at once that all that was hers was his. To make a long fable short another diplomatic loving“ expla- nation followed, and with it more money. This continued for a consider- able time, ang still the luck the young man was looking for did not materialize. He had a little odd job now and then, but that wag all. The woman continued to lend him money. A considerable sum was due her when at last he obtained a position. She had skimped and saved in order toe help him. Now, instead of his doing the same, to return.the money, his. new prosper- ity found him “living’’ again and wore in the social whirl. Once in a while he would return a small amount of the debt he owed. He just hated to think about it and he associated the girl with the pain of his poverty. He wanted to forget about it and sought other com- panions. By and by his visits to the girl became less frequent, and when. he did come to see her it seemed like & “duty to call, Also he found a erin ew him only in his present pr us state and magnified his every move to his advantage. The first girl—she who had stood by him in the days of his dis- tress and whom he was fast forgetting ~—learned this moral: GIVES THE WOMAN HE LOVES FOR LENDING HIM MONEY. Baking Hints. * HEN making angel cake be sure to beat the whites of the eggs stiff until you can turn the dish upside down and the whites of the eggs will not move. You will find your cake will come out right and will be much lighter. In baking bread be sure when rising it forms a thin crust before putting into even, and when taking out of oven listen and see that it does not sing, because if it sings it is not done. When baking lemon pies do not have your oven too hot, as the lemon will curdie and boil over your crust.

It missed her, but crashed right into the Sandman story of Greta who met this little elf, and in a queer way suddenly grew very rich and happy. from the bed. And little Greta, who was busy in the kitchen of the cottage, ran to her sick mother with a drink of cool water.

J think I wil have plenty of time to run down in the woods and get a bit be- fore the mush is done.“ So she ran down to the grove, which was at the foot of the hill. Then she stopped suddenly, for she remembered that in these very woods and jiist where the prettiest flowers grew, was the magie mound, where folks said the gob- lins played. But she went on till she reached a laurel bush, on which hung beautiful clusters of the pink blooms. Just as she put her hand up to break a bough she heard a squeaky voice at her feet exclaim, Ouch! Get off my toe,“ and looking down, she saw in the grass a little man about a foot high. N man, for he had on nothing but his underclothing, and was shiv- cring with cold. Greta could not help laughing at the sight. “I don’t see any- thing funny in almost freezing to ceath,” exclaimed the goblin, hopping about in his anger. “Then why don’t you put on your clothes?“ asked the girl. “I can't. I can't,“ he screamed; my wife has run bway and taken them all with her—she says I am so cross she won't live with me any longer.“ Now, Greta did not blame the goblin’s wife for leaving such a grouchy man, but she was a very kind-hearted child; so she took off her jacket and wrapped it about the little man till he was warm again. But he never even said Thank you, ma’am.”” He just began scolding again. “I am just starving!” he cried, breaking into tears. My. wife’s locked the cupboard an? ‘sok the key.

Out of the room she flew, with the pot of mush dragging after her, and never stopped till she found herself safe in the kitchen at home. ‘Then she looked at the pot, and saw-- that it had turned into pure, glistening gold, mush, pot, handle and all! So poor little Greta was very happy at this, for she was now rich enough to buy her mother a beautiful home and give her every comfort, and in a few weeks she was strong and well. the floor.

ICKVILLE on the Hudson, sometimes known as New York City, is the center of the gold brick industry in the United States. Unfortunately, the business is transacted largely by outsiders at the expense of the natives. The gold brick business began in the seventeenth century, when the natives were red men. They are white, now, probably due to repeat- edly being skinned. The red natives of Manhattan sold» the island to European adventurers for a couple of sacks of the “mak- ings” and half a dozen bandana handkerchiefs. Which, in proportion, will be about what the New York nativés will get next March 17 for their investment of to $25 in Willard-Moran fight seats. 5 *. * . Bricklayer Comiskey, Attention! MONG the recent bricks disposed of in New York may be men- tioned: The six-day cycle race. The MeFarland-Gibbons fight. The “championship” wrestling tournament, +. * « The Gilt Is Very Thin. HE latest brick—in preparation— is the Willard-Moran bout, for which Willard will receive $1583 a minute, or $26.40 a second, and Moran $666 per minute. Not that this bout will not be con- ducted to the very best ability of the men concerned, but that its intrinsic worth, from a boxing standpoint, is in inverse proportion to the size of the men. The bigger, the ranker—that’s thé way things go in the boxing world. Old Man Dope would rather see Murphy and Kabakoff fight one round than Willard and Moran ge 100.

T doesn’t take a microscope to de- tect that the smart Tex“ Rick- ard, who engineered the Jeffries- Johnson fiasco, has had one put over on him by the astute Mr. Curley, a former bus-boy at the Planters Ho- tel. Curley and Jones are partners, with Willard. A bid was made for the Willard-Moran bout. Jack Curley (acting for himself you must under- stand) raised the ante and obtained Willard’s but not Moran's signature. He. however, blocked Rickard's : game and forced that gentleman to raise the pot to $55,000. That wasn’t enough, so Curley slip 1 in another shot, signing Jack illon to box Willard. Great excitement, seized. the come- ons, Rickard and McCracken h raised the bid to $40,000 for Willard’s — alone. Curley raised to $45,000 then Rickard came across with $47,500—sold! Sold Is Right. C URLEY was a straw bidder, ap- parently, to boost the Willard money which is split three ways, with himself in the count. Great team work, Jack and Tom and Jess! It will be worth that 85 to $25 to get a look at the men whe pulled this famous engineering feat. On the Dead?
