SITUATION ‘EMBARRASSING’ Yon Wiegand Interview With + Yon Jagow Clearest State- ment of Germany’s View. By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.—The most di- rect intelligence reaching Washington from Berlin regarding the attitude of the imperial German Government on the most recent complication in the subma- rine controversy was contained in the dispatch of Karl H. von Wiegand pri~t- ed in the Post-Dispatch yesterday. The attitude assumed by Germany, as reflected in the statement of Foreign Minister von Jagow to the Post-Dis- patch correspondent, had the effect of adding to rather than disposing of we emvuarrassment caused by the triangu- lar argument between Germany, Great ..itain and the United States. Herr von Jagow’s declaration thar German submarices wi'l attack bdelliger- ent armed merchant ships whether car- rying passengers or not has provided a situation which threatens to become more serious than any that has arisen since the destruction of the Lusitania, unless Great. Britain signines its pur- pose to conform to the modifications de- manded by Germany in the observance of international law which she declares to be obsolete. Great Britain and Germany are squarely deadlocked over the issue and each obviously is depending upon win- ning the United States over to its view point. | Germany Standing by Her Plan. Germany has not given any indication of her purpose to defer the inauguration cf her new submarine policy scheduled for a week from today. The President is unchanged in his op- position to having Congress pass any ~- -yesolution warning Americans to keep: off armed merchantmen of the European belligerents and Congress leaders have heen so advised. It--was stated authoritatively today (hat discussidn of such a move did not come up at the President’s conference Monday night with Chairmen Stone and Flood of the congressional committee cealing with foreign affairs, and with Democratic Leader Kern, but was re- vived in quite another way. The official account is that Senator Smith of Georgia recently went to Sen- ator Stone to discuss the form in which such a resolution might be introduced if it were found necessary. It was said Senator Stone at that time opposed such a resolution. Congressmen who were at the White Flouse today said there was consider- able discussion of Senator Gore’s reso- ‘ution to warn Americans off belliger- ent merchantmen, but that there was very little prospect of passing it unless desired by the administration. President Wants Free Hand. The President wants to be free to han- cle the international situation and the word has been passed that the adminis- tration would like as little discussion in Congress as possible. ) Senator Stone, who was scheduled to make @ speech on the international sit- uation today, announced that he would defer it until some other time. “Because of vital reasons,” he said. to reporters, “I do not believe there shoul be any speechmaking on the subject at Present.’ Senater Stone today submitted to the Senate for publication as a document _ Portions of international law on the ubject of arming merchant ships and .t t address at Morristown, N. J., by Senator Lodge (Repubiican). Senatoy a urged his colleagues to read the __ document when published, because of the »» Importance of the subr..arine issue. It is not improbable that an effort will be made to bring the latest complica- ongress with- 4 . ina day or two, but the leaders, com- with the wishes of the President, any, within the next few days, is to reply to Mr. Lansing’s eries as to whether the United Stat expect German submarines here- after to warn all classes of merchant- before attacking them.

THRIFTY BIRDS ON BATTLE FRONT STORE BREADCRUMBS Disappeared .in West After the Marne but Have Returned; Used to Guna’ Din. PARIS, Feb. 23.—Bird life along the battle front appears to have been little disturbed by the continual thundering of the guns. Birds disappeared from the war zone after the battle of the Marne, and some naturalists attributed their migration to the din of war. They came back, however, and little by little accustomed themselves to the noise of explosives and even find an advantage in being close to the conflict where there is ample nourishment around the sol- diers’ quarters. There are doves, wild figeons, cuckoos, thrushes, crows, mag- nies, jays and starlings. M. Louis Rousseau, a well-known or- nithologist, has discovered that the war has changed the character/of these birds and made them thrifty. He has founé their nests in the holes of dead oaks, with a provision of bread crumbs stored rrudently underneath. — LIGHTNING HITS UMBRELLA Daughter Hears Thunder Clap and Sees Mother Enveloped in Flames From Burning Clothes, Mrs. Louise Kruger, 43 years old, wif- sf Charles Kruger, a farmer living north ef East St. Lecuis, was killed yester.. day afternoon by a bolt of lightning which struck the steel rod of an um- brella which she was carrying and then passed through her body. Mrs. Kruger was with her daughter, Annie, 17 years old The daughter told Coroner Renner’ that she was only a short distance ahead of her mother when she heard a tremendous thunder clap. She turned and saw her mother’s clotr- ing in flames. Her brother, Otto, was attracted by her cries and beat out the flames. He carried his mother’s body to the house. The covering of the umbrella was lipped to shreds and the ribs and ro: twisted and fused into one mass. BERLIN, ONT., WOULD BE ‘CAVELL’ Petition Demanding Change by 1000. LONDON, Ont., Feb. 23.—More than 1000 residents of Berlin, Ont., have pe- titioned the Provisional Assembly ue- manding that the name of that town be changed to Cavell in memory of the British nurse executed as a spy by the Germans in Belgium. The petition was adopted at a big meeting of Berlin citi- zens Monday. The Rev. O, Tappert, whose pro-Ger- man’ utterances have caused trouble, has been notified to quit Berlin by March. Shop signs bearing German let- tering are being carefully painted out, and all aliens in Berlin are registering- ing with the police and militia for their own protection. Ninety per cent of the population of Berlin are of German de- scent. MUNITIONS. MADE ON WARSHIPS British Men Doing Work During Spare Time Without Pay. LONDON, Feb. 23.—The fact that the men of the British warships are turn- ing out a large amount of war muni- tions in their spare time aboardship ts revealed in a letier from the Muni: tions Minister, David Lloyd-Georze, to Vice Admiral Sir David Beatty. “T have beon greatly interested in the details of the splendid work done by the officers and men of the battle cruiser fleet in making munitions,”’ tne Minister writes. “The output which al- ready has been reached is very strik- ing. The fact also that the work is be- ing carried out by the men’s own wish and without remuneration greatly en- hances its valve.” THE SUN MUST BE HOLDING OUT FOR A NE CONTRACT Signed American’s Painting Brings $20,000. NEW YORK, Feb. 23—The work of an American artist, a painting by Ralph Albert Blakelock, entitled “Moonlight,” brought the’ highest price bid in the auction sale of the art collection of Cath- clina Lambert yesterday. An agent of the Toledo Art Museum paid $20,000 for FARE INGREASE APPROVED, SAYS KINLEY LINE Interstate Commerce Commis- sion Granted Application, Bell Announces. NOTIFIED CITY NOT Counselor Wires for Information and Will Ask That Case Be Reopened. City Counselor Daues said today that he had been informed by General Super- intendent E. D. Bell of the Illinois Traction Co. in a telephone conversation, that the company filed with the Inter- state Commerce Commission more than *" 2. days ago, application for permission to increase its rates to Granite City, and that, as no protest had been filei within 20 days, the commission had av- proved the increase. The traction company posted in its cars teday notices that the increased fare ‘weuld be effective March 1. Counselor Daues will ask the commis- sion by telegraph today what has been done in respect to the proposed in- crease, and on receiving information, if the commission has approved the ii- crease, he will ask that the case bo reopened, so that the city can have a chance to protest and offer eviden-e to show that the increas2 should not -« allowed. City Got No Notice. The city has had no notice of the filing of such an application with the commission and has had no opportunity to oppose it. The company has been advertising an increase of rates but. so far as Daues knows, did not make known the fact that it had applied to the Interstate Commerce Commission until after the time within which pro- test could be made, had expired. Counselor Daues, in addition to tak- ing steps to have the franchise repeuled and instituting quo warranto proceed. ings in the Circuit Court for forfeiture of the franchise, if the increased rates are put sate rer. says he wi that the city has the right to do sO. The company is now charging 5 cents fcr the ride from St. Louis to Granite City. It proposes to charge 5 cents from St. Louis to Main street, Venice, end 5 cents from there to Granite City, ov single fares, and sell commutation tickets, good for the entire distance, at six for §& cents, which would make the fare 8 1-3 cents. There will also be a special workingmen’s commuta- tion ticket, good mornings and even- ings, at 6 cents for the entire dis- tance. Pay-as-You-Leave Pian. Notices announcing the increased fares also told that the pay-as-you- enter plan would be changed to pay-as- you-leave. Persons boarding the car at Main street in Venice, which is the half way, or 5 cent point, will be given a receipt. Each passenger, upon leaving the car, will pay a dime, except those passengers who have a receipt, and who will deposit their receipt slip and 5 cents, The City Council of Granite City, meeting this morning with Mayor J. C. Steele, instructed the City Attorney to file suit to enjoin the McKinley System fromm increasing the fare between St. Louis and Granite City before the IIli- nois Utilities Commission can pass upon the merits of the rate increase. A con- ference with the Mayors of Venice and Madison, to make the action unanimous, is being arranged.

Y., Feb. 23.—The right of the proprietor of a theater to refuse admission to any person, whose pub- lished criticism of dramatic perform- ances might injure the business of the theater was upheld’ unanimously by the court of appeals yesterday.

Harriman to obtain proxies in the celebrated fight for con- trol of: the Illinois Central Kailroad, and concerning Brandeis’ relations with tlie Equitable Life Assurance Society, were fi'ed today with the senate sub- committee coysidering Brandeis’ nomi- nation for the Supreme Court.

Thomas H. McKittrick, president of the defunct Hargadine-McKittrick Ory Co., told this morning, in. the hearing of the injunction suit against the company in Judge Shields’ court, how several of his plans for the financ- ing of the Railway Exchange Suilding project were frustrated. The chief cause of this, he said, was the panic of 1907 .and the. business depression which followed. The original plan for the building, he said, was to devote the ground floor, on Seventh ‘street, to the use -f rail- road city ticket offices. He said all the roads agreed to this plan except the Pennsylvania, and that the indifference of that line blockéd the execution of the plan. McKittrick said he originally expect- ed to finance the Railway Exchange Building outside the Hargadine-McKit- trick Co., and that he believed he would have done so but for the 1907 panic. This caused the loss of help on which he had counted, and in 1911, he testified, the building syndicate notified him that the funds on hand were ex- LL tain Geots in Downteiyn « Stores, The three days’ sale for the relief :n Belgium and Northern France will open tomorrow. morning in all of the doW.- town department and specialty stores comprising the Associated Retailers of St. Louis and in many neighborhood stores.

Genevieve County, candidates for State Auditor; “L. D. Thompson of Bloomfield, candidate for State Treas- urer, and the congressional candidates, spoke at the afternoon meeting. Fairbanks, who is a.candidate for the presidential nomination, was scheduled to speak on George Washington, but made several references to political matters. He declared that the present wonderful prosperity of the country was due wholly to war orders and the misfortunes of the European countries, and would be of short duration. He ad- vocated a protective tariff. While not declaring himself on the subject of preparedness, he asserted that no country in the world wants to measure military conclusions with the United States, and that there would be no danger of war with any country if a firm, clear-headed diplomatic policy was pursued by this country. A reference was made to the attitude of Japan toward the United States and the general impression here. that Japan would like to make war upon this coun- try. Fairbanks said that in a recent tour of the world he spent much time in Japan, and that there was not the slightest desire on the part of the Japanese to have trouble with the United State. No other country in the world places a higher valuation upon the good opinion of: the United States, he said, than Japan.

REJECTED AS GIRLS FOSTER-MOTHERS All Who Call to See Witt Chil- dren Refuse to Give Pledge Required by Father. Ten women called yesterday to see the four young daughters of Frank Witt, who wants someone to adopt them. Mrs. Marie Leimback, with whom the Witts are boarding at 4650 Tennessee avenue, said none of the callers were acceptable as foster parents because all were church goers. Witt, in an advertisement in the Post- Dispatch Monday, announced that he wanted a young, educated couple, who were not church people, to adopt, three, of the girls. Last August, while living in Alton, he advertised for someone to acopt all four, butt he failed to find any acceptable home for them. When the father heard last night that no non-church persons had applied for the children during the day, Mrs. Leim- hack, said he was very much disgusted ind declared if he did not find a suitable home for the children within a month he would keep three of them.. He said he would send Anna, 3% years old, to the home of a friend at 3200 South Grand avenue tonight, where the people will decide in a week whether they want to ¢dopt her. The family has agreed to rear the girl according to Witt’s ideas. The other children are Marie, 7 years old: Helena, 5, and Katherine, 2. Their mother died shortly after Katherine was born and since then the children have lived part of the time in orphan homes Witt, however, did not approve of these institutions because of their religious teachings, and took the children out. He said he wants to find a permanent home for them because he is afraid he will lose his job or die, leaving them without support. He is a machinist ani is 33 years old. sold to its present owner, the May Ve- partment Stores Co., he thought «ue building was financed. But business conditions caused the failure of negotiations, he said, and at the end of 1911, he said, “I was at the end of my rope.”’ He said he did the bést he could for the Hargadine-McKitt:ick Co., ana tried throughout to consider that company’s advantage. Speaking of the need for a new buiid- ing, McKittrick said the old Barr store was not well adapted for the conven- ience of women customers, and tact other stores were better equipped with elevators and other conveniences. Favored Big Building. He said the original plan for a new building was for a store only, but that in looking over the plans for the Syndi- eate Trust Building he became con- vinced that the best plan was to put as much rental space as possible over the store. The rent from the upper floors, he said, would enable the store to oc- cupy the lower floors at a nominal rental, if not rent-free. He said the plans did not at first em- ‘bFace the whole blocwx, bit that it be- Came apparent that the building should cover the block. He told of the di‘f- ferent heights considered, up to 25 sto- ries, and of the passage of a special vr- dinance authorizing the erection of the building, with its present height of -- stories. To get this ordinance passed, he said, some special requirements as to fireproof construction had to be met, iZe OaKes Delicious Coffee Cake, 12e. Oakes Peanut Bar i7c Ib. 612 Locust.

GERMANY’S NEXT BUDGET TO CARRY ABOUT $1 ,400,000,000 $500,000,000 of This Is Interest on War Loans—Much New Revenne Is Needed. : BERLIN, Feb. 23.—Germany’s next ordinary budget, including 2,050,000,- 000 marks ($500,000,000) interest on war loans, will reach at least 5,500,- 000,000 marks ($1,400,000,000), accord- ing to the estimate of Privy Council- lor Behrnauer, writing in the Ham- burger Nachrichten. The previous highest budget—that of 1913-1914— reached only slightly above 3,500,- 000,000 marks. As the receipts from customs and other sources will show a sharp re- duction, Herr Behrnauer reckons that the fiscal year beginning in April will require at least 3,000,000,000 marks of new revenue for current expenditures outside of the war. ee ee BEWARE OF THECLOSE SHAVE Dangerous—Always Use an Antiseptic Healing Lotion on Skin Afterwards We men with tender necks know that what we need is something to put on the skin after the shave that will not only feel good while it’s still wet but will fix the skin so the neck won’t chafe, the face won’t get rough, sore or chaped and we won’t have bumps and ingrowing hairs and ‘‘blind’’ pim- ples on the neck between shaves. When a man shaves he just natur- ally scrapes off a little thickness of skin at the same time he’s mowing off the beard—and if the skin is thin and tender that’s bound to hurt—not only ‘right after the shave but in between shaves when the wind gets on the face and the collar gets to scrubbing away on the neck. The fact of-the matter is, something ought to be used after shaving that will have soothing, healing and anti- septic qualities because a tender skin after a shave needs to be healed up just exactly like your knuckles do aft- er you’ve ‘‘barked’’ them. The only preparation that we know of which considers the real needs of a shaver is @ regular prescription put up as care- fully and scientifically as any medi- cine for the cure of disease. It is put up by the leaders in the Salux Health- Safety-First movement composed of the leading pharmaceutical house of America and prominent druggists all over this country. For convenience’ in asking for it, this ready-put-up-pre- scription is called Salko Shaving Lo- tion. members of this great organization, ours is the only store in this city where it can be bought. Applied after a shave Salko Shaving Lotion takes out the soreness, heals and acts as an antiseptic lotion to Re vent tender spots and eruptions that follow too close a shave or a shave with a razor that is out of condition. The neck doesn’t chafe and get sore between shaves. If you go to a barber, put a bottle of Salko Shaving Lotion with your cup and be sure of a cool skin, a comfort- able neck and safety from contagion.

BERLIN, via London, Feb. 23.—It is announced that Vice Admiral Reinhardt Scheer has ween appointed commander of the German battle fleet in succes- sion to Admiral Pohl, who, after hold- ing the place for a year, is retiring 0a account of ill heaith. Vice Admiral Scheer is considered one of the most capable tacticians in the German navy and is regarded as a man not only of fercefulness but also of ideas. He was for a long time em- ployed as director of the General Ma- tine Department at the Admiralty and ne also has held command in the active service as chief of staff of the high sea squadron. To his active direction,is at- tributed the recent increased activitv of the German navy. Francis Accepts Appointment as Envoy to Russia Continued From Page One. effort to save money to pay off a $390 cebt incurred in college. In 1877 he went into the commission business for himself, founding the bust- ness which, in partnership with his brother and sons, he still carries on. Francis was elected president of the | Merchants’ Exchange in 1883. This po- sition was, at that time, one of civic prominence as well as of business ia:- pertance. In the spring of 188, three cendidates for Mayor were before ths semocratic convention, and a deadlock ended .. an agreement on Francis, had not been one of the three. He Vv: nominated and elected Governor of Missouri in 188 and took office shortly before the expiration of the term for which he had been elected Mayor. Interested in Columbia U. As Governor, Francis interested him- self in the welfare of the State Univer- sity at Columbia, which had been teft in a precarious state by the burning of main building. Soon after his term as Governor expired, the division between tte free silver and gold wings of the wemocratic party arose, and Francis became prominently aligned with the “gold bugs.”’ Late in the second Cleve- lend administration, he was appointed Secretary of the Interior, and served through the remainder of Cleveland's term, He was elected president of the Lou- isiana Purchase Exposition Co., whica built the St. Louis World’s Fair of 44, in Forest Park. He visited for- eign countries in the interest of the exposition, personally interviewing King Edward of England, Kaiser Wilhelm and other sovereigns. He did not visit the Czar, and, chiefly because of the Russian-Japanese war, Russia was not represented in the exposition. Francis also worked effectively at Washington for the $5,000,000 appropriation made by the United States Government for the fair, and for the supplemental loan of $4,600,000 from the Government, whica was repaid from the exposition’s re- ceipts. After the fair, he made another tour, thanking the heads of European “overnments for their participation, and received several decorations. Francis made his peace with William J. Bryan on the occasion of Bryan’s return from a world tour in 1906, and he advocated Bryan’s nomination in 1908, when Bryan made his third race for the presidency. In 1910, Francis became a candidate for the Democratic nomina- tion for United States Senator, to suc- ceed William Warner. He was de- feated by James A. Reed, former Mayor of Kansas City, after making an active campaign through the State. Since that time, Francis has attended chiefly to his business interests, which in recent years have come to include the active direction of the St. Louis Re- public. In a recent interview, he spoke of that paper as his “organ.” He has served on the State University’s board of curators, and is now the head of that board. Regarding his acquaintance with the French language, which is the lan- guage of European diplomacy, Francis has related that he once delivered a set speech in French, before a Paris gath- ering. He understood the principles of French pronunciation, and knew the language well enough to prepare his talk in French, with some ‘assistance. He memorized this talk and delivered it, but when he was surrounded, after the address, by Frenchmen addressing rapid-fire questions to him, he had to throw up his hands and call for an interpreter. Frances is the second St. Louisan to be chosen as Ambassador to Russia. Ethan Allen Hitchcock held that post by ab- pointment of President McKinley, being first appointed Minister, then elevated to Ambassador when the rank of the post was changed. Francis was married in 1876 to Miss Jane Perry of St. Louis. They have six sons. Mrs. Francis is in Florida. Francis’ appointment adds one more name to the list of Missourians who oc- cupy important posts in the Govern- ment service. David F.. Houston, former chancellor of Washington University, is Secretary of Agricultirre in the Presi- dent’s Cabinet. William J. Stone is chairman of the Foreign Relations Com- mittee of the United States Senate, Champ Clark is Speaker of the House of Representatives, and Joseph W. Folk, former Governor of Missouri, is chief counsel for the Interstate Commerce Commission. $4—Toledo & #£Return—g$4 Feb. 26, vi Clover Leaf Route.

PETITIONS CIRCULATED Damage Wrought by Has Made Improvement Work a Necessity. é 4 Following the decisive vote for a $3,- 3,000 bond issue for good roads in St. Louis County, bond issues for aps wa purpose are being advocated Charies County and Jefferson eau which adjoin St. Louis County on the worth and on the south. _A movement for a $3,000,000 bond issue, € equaling that of .t. Louis County, has yen commenced in St. Charles County. In Jefferson County, petitions are be- ng circulated, asking the County Court io order a special election on a $500,000 bond issue. ' St. Charles County is separated from St. Louis County by the Missouri River, While the Meramec River forms a part Of the boundary line between St. Louis County and Jefferson County. St. Louis County has an especial interest in the bond issue movement in Jefferson Coun- ty, because. of the Lemay Ferry Bridge over the Meramec. This bridge, de- Mmolished by the storm of last .-cgust, is the main connecting highway between the two counties, and it cannot be re- stored until Jefferson County raises funds to do its half of the work. Un- dess there is a bond issue, these funds ‘are not in sight. | A $500,000 bonu issue proposal -was Voted on Nov. 6, last, in Jefferson oun- , and was beaten by a small majority. Bt ase that time, another disastrous pe- Tiod of high water on the Meramec, and miong three tributary creeks, has done further damage to roads, bridges and culverts, and has shown the need for , big expenditure for good ro- ds. _ In St. Charles County, the plan for a jond issue has been indorsed by he Ce nty Farm Bureau, and the Citizens’ dmprovement Association of St. Charles. Mayor Olson of St. Charlies, E. H. Hol- Tah, presiding Judge of the County Court, and Associate Judges Sandfort and Hensiek, have expressed themselves @s favoring a bond issue. Lecturers of a State University agricultural c s, speaking at O’Fallon and Port- ides Sioux within the past few days, reported strong sentiment for a bond issue in those localities. St. Charles County has 2% miles of sacadamized roads and 30 miles of vel roads. The principal improve- at work now being done is on the Boon’s Lick road, or Santa Fe 4 Needed work on other roads is being held | back by lack of funds.

By STANLEY WASHBURN, A Special Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch, PETROGRAD, Jan, 26.—From the time that Warsaw fell there was a period of great anxiety in Ruesia, unalleviated by news from the front. The only in- formation one received from Poland and the battlefields north and south were re-, perts that came from the German side The loss of Ivangorod and Novo Georg- fevsk came as a great shock to Petro- grad, though just why I do not know, for both were doomed the moment War- sew fell. Ivangorod was an old-fash- icned fortress that could not have lasted a day against a heavy artillery attack. Its evacuation immediately after the fall of the Polish capital was inevitable and passed with little notice in the army. Novo Georgievsk, which protected Warsaw from the north, was a modern fortress and held out approximately. two weeks. This strong point on the impor- tant line of railroad from East Prussiwu and Ciechanow to Praga was a biock on the line of advance the Germans must This war has shown conclusively that fertresses must be regarded as checks to enemy advances at strategic points rether than as positions that can be hell indefinitely and withstand prolonged sieges. The sacrifice of Novo Geors- jevsk and its garrison was, of course regrettable, but it was the price that had to be paid to insure the escape of th; Russian center. I do not know what the Ruasians lost in men and guns by the taking of this fortress, but its two weeks’ defense | was worth to the Russians the loss of several army corps, and I doubt if it cost that much. With the loss of this stronghold the taking of Bialostok be- came a matter of days, and with the fall of that important city Grodno in turn was doomed. The fact that this fortress was de- signed (as I have been creditably in- formed) by a German engineer now serving on Gen. yon Hindenburg’s staff, no doubt ied to its capture earlier than might otherwise have happened. The only point on the eastern front which was a distinct disappointment to the Russians was Kovno, which only never be an independent sian soil. Statement Checks Rumors. This statment checked in behalf of the Russian Government, ani definitely .tating that there would ; reace while there remained a single enemy on Rus- the flood of false reports for the moment, and the announcement a few weeks later that the Czar in person would take com- mand of the army Rose tata Barat TE se EWARE OF — anne GLASSES THAT ARE SOLD FOR PROFIT ONLY We could not afford to give you any but the very best.

Its capitulation, I am sorry to say, The prices. quoted are less than 23% was probably due to treachery on the black and natural raccoon, black opossum, part of some of the command within the a fortress. Certainly a high ranking of- : ficer was removed from command and is said to be languishing in a dungeon somewhere in Russia today. The loss of Kovno was the only ugly blot in the entire retreat, as far as I Know. The German advance in the center, meeting meager resistance, arrived with due celerity in front of Brest Litovsk. from talks [ have had with German sympathizers since that event, I am in- clined to believe that the Germans ex- pected and hoped for a Russian stand there, where they could deliver a de- eisive and crushing blow. Their disappointment must have been great when they found the Muscovites again in motion and themselvés faced with an advance into a country beyond the Bug, containing no town or city for J hundreds of miles,-that anyone outside of Russia had ever heard of. The German papers announced Yast captures of munitions at Brest. I can- not imagine what they were, because when I passed that way just ahead of the enemy there was but a meager ac- cumulation of anything, though it was then the base on which a number of armies were drawing for supplies. No doubt a congestion of empty caissons and a few shells in the town itself was dangled before the German correspond- ents as a great prize. One must let the Germans get all the pleasure they can out of Brest Litovsk. for certainly it was the last golden spot the army that captured it can look back on in the 1915 campaign. As I have tried to show, what had happened at the actual front after Warsaw, though depressing and to ve deprecated, was not in any way the great disaster on which the Germans alone could count for forcing an independent peace with Kussia, the goal of all their hopes, At this time a political situation de- veloped in Petrograd which presented the most serious menace that Russia has faced since the war started, anda this waz the created reports that an in- dependent peace was pending. Petrograd has always been filled with German in- terests and German sympathizers, and from the day that the war started it has been filled with German interests a German sympathizers, and since the war started it has been filled with calamity howlers, endeavoring tv discourage the population and to con- ~ —— | Thursday | Specially Arranged Suit Sale Values to $16.75 for 80 “The ( Coudar of siete | ighth As a Semi-Climax to This Two Weeks of Value- Giving THURSDAY ‘DO 1S Lu ] and augmented HE buying power of a dollar is aaliler increased ; Thursday—values of a most extraordinary nature are quoted te make the later days of this fortnight campaign of greater interest and helpfulness.

None deli | oi, 017% Wa FINDIAN WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-A state- ment issued by Representative Gardner of Massachusetts yesterday is taken to indicate that there will be a stubborn fight against the federalized militia plan agreed to by the House Military Af- fairs Committee. Gardner, who may be taken to rep- resént in some measure the movement for adequate national defense, displayed his opposition to the program of: the House committee in two ways. He is- sued a statement ridiculing the proposal to make national security dependent upon an army composed of militiamen and indicated what, from his point of} view, should be done by introducing the bill drawn by the army War College, which provides for a regular army of 281,000 men. The Hay plan provides for an increase Lof 35,000 men in the regular army. This force, Gardner says, would be suffi- cient to man a trench several miles long or half the length of Manhattan Island. With as much emphasis he declared the scheme for a federalized militia to be equally inadequate. He asserts that it will be a long time before the 425,000 militiamen proposed by the Hay mea- sure can be enlisted, inasmuch as there never have been more than 130,000 men in the militia forces of all the states, Gardner reiterates the charge tnat the militia forces will be in effect 48 sepa- rate little armies under the state gov- ernments and that any attempt to draft them in time of war will be met with @ lawsuit or an alibi. look years younger.

Wood Advocates Larger Army in Address at Peoria. PEORIA, IIL, Feb. 23.—Major-General Leonard A. Wood, U. 8S. A., took pre- paredness as his topic at the banquet of the Creve Coeur Club in commemo- ration of George Washington’s birth- day last nifht. Henry D. Estabrook and Dudley Field Malone, both of New York City, also delivered addresses. “Both the army and navy and the militia must have adequate reserves of men and munitions,” said Major-General Wood. “It is necessary to build up a reserve force of 50,000 officers. It will be sufficient to officer a million and one-half of citizen soldiers. “The training camps are going to be one of the most valuable sources of supply of officers, and they will, in my opinion, become a part of our regular system when we finally come,.as come we must, to the adoption of something on the Swiss or Australian system. These camps are but‘a step in the great movement to organize our forces to effectively and promptly defend our rights and our country. They are but a form of peace insurance. Place your- selves behind them and give them your support. They are worthy of it.’’ CONGRESSMAN DE ARMAND’S =|: WiDUw MARRIES AN ENGINEER Missouri Woman Formerly Figured im Washington Social Circles; First Husband Burned to Death. BUTLER Mo., Feb. 23.—Mrs. Alice de Armond, 61 years old, widow of David A. de Armond, who represented the Sixth District of Missourl in the na- tional House of Representatives, many years, was married Feb. J2 in San An- tonio, Tex., to William W. Allen, 49, for- merly a restaurant waiter here, at pres- ent night engineer®at the municipal light plant. The event has just been learned here. Since the death of De Armond in a fire which destroyed the homestead here in November, 1909, and burned to death his grandson, 7 years old, the widow had lived alone in a seven-room bunga- low she constructed on the site. Two years ago Allen came here from Sedalia and was employed in a restau- rant until a year ago, whén he went to the light plart. Mrs. de Armond met him three months ago. They departed on separate trains Feb. 9, and met in San Antonio. Mrs. de Armond formerly figured in Washington society, when her husban:l was Democratic floor leader. It is said he left her $18,000.

Millard of Shanghai, China, a former St: Louisan, in an article on issue.of the Century Magazine, makes these assertions: Japan is making deliberate prepa- rations in anticipation, if not actual- ly in expectation, of a clash with the United States. The Japanese Government has de- liverately prepared the Japanese people for such a collision, and has aroused extreme hostility against the United States. At the same time, a Japanese propaganda in America has been working to quiet suspicion of Japan, and to prevent or retard measures of defense. Japan has betrayed Great Britain in China, and a feeling friendly to Germany is being cultivated in Ja- pan, even while Japan and Ger- many are technically at war. Because of the European war and American unpreparedness, this coun- try is peculiarly exposed to an at- tack from Japan at the present time. Millard is editor of the China Press of Shanghai and is author of “The New Far East’ aud “America and the Far Eastern Question.’’ Discusses Japanese Attitude. He says Americans make the mistake of assuming that, because they wish the Japanese weil, and see nothing to fight about, the Japanese have a like feel- ing. He then proceeds to give his view of Japan’s motives and Japanese diplomacy. Japan, he says, has failed in its ef- forts to colonize in Korea and Manchu- ria. The reason is that, in those coun- tries, the standard of living is even !ower than in Japan, and that Japanese can- not profitably compete with the natives. Fence, he points out, Japan covets an outlet toward the American continent, “with its higher. economic standards under which Ja, anese of all classes can eut and still find room for immense improvement of their condition.” He summarizes.the arguments which he says the Japanese propaganda has made, to still the suspicions of Amer- icans. Some of these are: Japanese friendship for America, the large vol- ume of trade between the two nations, Japan’s national poverty, Japan's treaty obligations’ to China, the moderateness of Japan’s requests in the California con- troversy. He then takes up these arguments in detail, and argues that they are largely fallacious or untrue, and that, rightly } -1terpreted, they point to unfriendly, rather than friendly relations. | “There are two grave issues between Japan ahd the United States,”’ Millard! says, ‘“‘the fate of China and Japanese imrmigation to the Americas. Japanese colonization of countries on this hemi- ephere, in its political and economic re- lations, would affect the Unted States scarcely less than a Japanese coloniza- tion of our own states.’’ Analyzing the immigration issue, Mil- lard says it amounts to a demand, by Japan, that the United States shall per- mit another country to decide whom it shall admit to certain privileges. This decision, Millard declares, rests entirely with the United States, and to submit this decision, in any part, to a foreign ration would mean to qualify American sovereignty. Americans, he contends, have the exclusive right to decide the conditions of citizenship and residence in their own country, and from this posi- tion ‘‘Americans cannot be budged except i by superior force of arms.” » he says, “that no nation in Japan’s position would be mad enough to try to force this legally un- tenable issue with another great nation: yet the present tone of the Japanese rress, and recent utterances of Japanese leaders and statesmen snow plainly that tke thought is seriously entertained, and | that they think the hour. has come to force it. With Japanese the feeling is now or never.”’ Inner Politics of War. Discussing the inner politics of Ja- pan’s position in the war, Millard says Japan is willing to send troops to Bue rope, if England and ° France, in re- turn, will give her a free hand in China and the Northern Pacific. Such a price, he says, the allies. will not pay except as a last resort. The recent proposal that China should join the allies and the violent Japanese objection to that pro- | posal, showed the British and Freneh desire to protect, their interests in Chi- na. against Japan, Millard says. Japen has for years strained every resource, the writer says, to be ready for a conflict with the United States, She was rapidly: approaching naval equality: with this country when the war came, stimulating Amierica’s inter- est in defense and making it less likely that this country will be unprepared in future. . Japan has betrayed Great Britain in China, he says, and the Anglo-Japanese alliance will collapse after the war, un- less Great Britain is unable to find the needed support elsewhere. Japan is coquetting with Russia, and Japanese papers are cultivating a feeling of ad- miration for Germany, he says. “At present, and during the remainder of the great war,’’ Millard writes, ‘‘the United States is exposed more than usu- al to an attack by Japan. Japan, be- cause of the war, is herself freed from |: immediate complications; she can turn her back on Russia without alarm, and deterring influences of Great Britain and France are for thé time ineffective. The United States probably is now at the minimum of its comparative armed power, and totally lacking in supports, rg “The Japanese Menace, ’* in’the March j. lao and practical, from other Powers,|to challenge this nation onthe crucial declares, was to try to win over # condition not likely ever to occur | issues that lie between them, this to her/American financial interests to su again.

Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. ‘The proposed negro segregation ordinance is cbnoxtous to the fundamental principles which; inhere in our American institutions. The Four- teenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States provides: “All persons born or nat- uralized in the United States and subject to the jurisdicion thereof are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States. NOR 8 ANY STATE DEPRIVE ANY PERSON OF LABERTY OR PROPERTY WITHOUT DUB PROCESS OF ‘LAW, NOR DENY TO ANY PERSON’ WITHIN ITS JURISDICTION THE EQUAL PROTECTION OF THD LAWS. ' Everyone will concede the power of a munici- pality like St. Louis to pass an ordinance is de- rivative—that is, delegated authority from the State. A similar ordinance was enacted in Georgia and the Supreme Court of that State, situate as’ it is in the Southland, declared it void as in con- flict with the due process-of-law clause of the Federal Constitution above quoted. See the case of Carey vs. City of Atlanta, 143 Ga, 192, decided Feb. 12, 1915. In concluding its opinion in the case erred to, the Supreme Court of Georgia said: he effect of the ordinance under consideration was not merely to regulate a business or the like, but was-TO DESTROY THE RIGHT OF THE INDIVIDUAL to acquire, ENJOY, and dispose of HIS PROPERTY. Being of this character, it was Vold as being opposed to the due-process clause of the Constitution; and the Judge erred in refus- ing to grant the injunction.”” So much for the view of the Supreme Court of Géorgia. But aside from the view of that court, no one will deny that the proposed ordinance purports to inhibit the use of property which an individual may own im certain localities, and this apples to both the white and the colored. But above and beyond all this, the proposal is contrary to the fundamental principle of equal rights which underlies our institutions. It is not a question as to whether, from selfish motive, the whites desire to reside away from the negro or as to whether the négro desires to reside near or remote from the white, but rather it is a ques- tion to be viewed from the high standpoint of broad Americanism concerning the free exercise of equal rights in respect of property as citizens of a democracy. Suppose a colored man should aequire by descent a residence in the white dis- trict, which the ordinance forbids him to occupy as a home, would his privileges touching this property be identical with a white man who had acqured property in the same district? Obviously not. Every proposal designed to encroach upon the liberty of the citizen, unless it proceeds on moral grounds or for the betterment of the great- er number—that is, the common weal—should be] ra with alarm and smitten wherever it shows its head. If the negro is to be segregated on ac- count of his color, may not the next step be the segregation of others on account of race or creed, or, it may be, the laboring man from those en- joying other avocations? The point of the matter ig, the ordinance, if adopted, will stand as a prece- nt for further encroachments on individual rights in the future. Very respectfully, ALBERT DPD. NORTONI, Silence on Segregation. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. ©, let us let up on this segregation matter! Pv- @fy man, woman and child now knows all about it. Why not leave it to the courts, where it must fin- ally end. Whichever way it is decided, there will be many angry people, resolved on “getting even” some day. Hatred and discord, wrong and injus- 9 a are not all in Europe. Waar. Frenchmen Respect th the United States. rT the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Permit mé to express the gratitude which Frenchmen in this country and Americans with French connections and sympathies must feel over the reproduction in last Sunday’s Pogt-Dis- | tch of the article “L’/amitie Americaine,” from } Matin of Jan. 22. The article, setting forth it does, the French feeling of deep grateful- to the United States, should go far to cor- t the impression produced recently by state- wanta erroneous, I am sure, of Mr. Richard Harding Davis, and the editor of Harper's, that’ the United States was held in low esteem in the allied countries. That true French public opinion could entertain feelings other than of respect, admiration and gratitude for the United States at this time, I, for one, could never believe, and the article in Le Matin should make this clear t everyone. GUS V. MECHIN, President Societe Francaise ‘de St. Louis. ever shed by an Indian ) people who will not fight— to call them traitors of the > puts an luvincible | HENRY FORD’s ILLOGIC. In his extraordinary article against prepared- ness for defense, Henry Ford makes the wish for peace and arbitration the father of his argu- ment against preparedness for war against as- gression.. He says: I have dedicated my life's work to the edu- eation of men on this subject with the hope that {f war comes again nien will know be- fore they march against the machine guns whether they are marching for a just cause or for ambition, avarice and insincerity. | representatives in Congress. But Men ought to know whether they are fighting | “for a just cause, for ambition, avarice and in- sincerity.” Americans will know before they fight because war can be declared only by their when they march against machine guns in a just cause, they want more machine guns, more cannon, more rifles and to know better how to use them tian the enemy. To march unprepared men against machine guns in a just cause is to doom the defenders of the just cause to useless slaugh- ter. | Is it unpatriotic to wish for world peace | instead of a universal war over commercial rights of a few men or to uphold an unpop- ular Government? Certainly not; it is highly patriotic and wise, but wishing for world peace does not prevent war with nations which want to fight for com- mercial advantage, for territory, or imperial am- bition. Nor are wishes defenses against their military designs and forces. Let the President and others who are preaching this doctrine of fear point out the enemy, let them prove the enemy comes upon us, and every American is willing to lay down his fortune and his life at the feet of the President, as Americans have done before. When the enemy comes upon us it is too late tc prepare to resist him and Americans will lit- erally “lay down their fortunes and their lives.” Americans have done this before; they have un- necessarily sacrificed millions of dollars and tuousands of lives to the futile wish for peace and the illusion of unpreparedness. Mr. Ford naively nullifies his own campaign by asse that we have adequate defenses—a strong navy and an excellent army, with reserves in the national guard, and other resources. Why army defenses? To be consistent he should urge that we dismantle the navy, disband the militia. Enough of the Ford illogic. These samples show how he writes without thought and ar- gues without reason. His money which enables him to tell the American people that they cannot trust themselves and what they ought to do, does not buy him statesmanship or sound judgment. What would Mr. Ford think of a business man who depends upon the wish that there will be no competition instead of preparing to meet and overcome it. Did he make his millions by wish- ing and by indulging illusions with regard to the need of business preparedness? Did he suc- ceed by acting on a theory instead of actual conditions in the business world? = = = a we WHY CITY PLANNING? Why have a city plan commission? Why work out satisfactory plans for public improvements? We ask these questions on account of the makeshift bill for the improvement of Twelfth street south of the viaduct. The improvement was thoroughly worked out to solve the traffic prob- lem at that point and to provide an attractive street adequate for the service required of it. Instead of carrying out the plan—the only one that meets the demands of the situation—the Board of Aldermen chop it down te an inade- quate and foolish makeshift which will not solve the problem, but will be an obstacle and a nui- sance. It will bottle the traffic on the viaduct and boulevard. The kind of economy that spoils plans for ade- quate public improvements is false economy. It is a waste of money leading to larger cost in the end. Nor is the change due entirely to economy— various influences, some political, contributed. Will the Mayor join the board in the make- shift, money-wasting policy? Will he be induced to throw good planning and sound methods of public improvement to the wiage? ‘(= = oe ae LINE’S PROPOSED NEW FARES. City Counselor Daues plans a repeal of the franchise of the McKinley line in case it in- creases fares to Granite City. But when this proposed operation is reversed, when public authority decrees a reduction in fares distasteful to utilities, the latter resist by injunction suit. This method of procedure en- ables the merits of the change to be thoroughly canvassed and its equity determined by judicial scrutiny. It ought to be as avdilable for protect- ing the public as the corporations. © The McKinley increase seems to afford an ex- ceptional opportunity for Government by injunc- tion, a moderate amount of which {sg by no means to be deprecated. Important questions of law as well as issues of fact are tnvolved and an adjudication of them is an ultimate necessity. In addition to providing for such adjudication, an injunction, if granted, would have the addi- tional advantage of holding fares where they are at present, pending an affirmative showing of substantial proof by the manager of the trolley company. = = _ HE HIGH COsT OF ROMANOE. Prince Miskinuff or Whiskynuff or however you spell him—these Russian proper names are con- fusing—is another beautiful sample of imported bargains showing how much an American heir- - Jess can obtain in the foreign market when she is ja discriminating shopper. Even romance is pur- chasable. With sufficient money it seems the | heiress can obtain not only a title but a pretty - | Prince who will fall in love with her at first sight and make love in such delicious and novel en- dearments as “my little boutzon” and “Kizzi- | Kizzi.” No wonder the plain American lover with ee eraee tame! » ‘And there is nothing to vompare with the tovehing fidelity of these royal Russian lovers, cnee they have been wished on. They will get up on the witness stand and declare before high heaven and 100,000,000 of people that they still love her, when the heiress brings suit for sepa- ration. The compass needle is not truer to the north pole nor the sick cat to the hot brick than the titled spouse to the original object of his af- fections. The only way to be rid of a boughten husband is to buy him off. There is much in the court proceedings subsequent to the impor- tation of foreign romances to make poor Amer- ican girls content to get theirs out of novels. = = re THE FALL OF MR. WISTER. One of the minor horrors of the world war has been its morbid effect on so many poets, essay- ists, novelists and other:literary lights. It has provoked in the minds of these hitherto pleasing and innocuous “intellects” *the sudden hallucina- tion that they had a copyright on international statesmanship. It is true that dabbling in pa-. triotic policies did no direct harm to anyone ex- ¥cept these excited dilettantes-themselves. But it indirectly harmed the community . because it spoiled them for their own trade. Take, for instance, the hymn of hate which Owen Wister has just produced against President Wilson. Mr. Wister before the war had won a well-deserved reputation as one of our best prose stylists. But he, too, became a statesman. First he wrote a polished excoriation of Germany’ based on some first-hand baths he had taken at a German health resort, and some third-hand information he had acquired at a Philadelphia club. His degeneration as a writer could immediately be seen at work, for ‘The gave his militant book the precious title of “The Pentecost of Calamity.” And now Mr. Wister has sunk to the literary degradation of pouring forth his patriot’s soul in doggerel so mean in technical quality that the | fact of having written it must inevitably taint the purity of his style for the rest of his life. Furthermore, quite apart from its technical de- fects, we have only to read its substance to real- ize that it has hopelessly\estranged its author from his art in heart as well asin hand. Never again could he write “The Virginian,” for “The Vir- ginian” was the sympathetic study of a cow- puncher with the instincts of a gentleman. = = * be fil as the Russian student who recently escaped to the United States in a potato sack has evidently come to grow up with the country. ‘*‘RELIEF DAYS’’ IN OUR CALENDAR. “Belgian days” have become somewhat familiar to us during the past year and a half. Tomorrow Friday and Saturday are again to extend in St. Louis the calendar of such days, whose mean- ing and duty we all understand. Of points recognized in the plan of relief de- vised for these three days, one is that the remain- ing Value in secondhand clothing is too small to warrant transportation so long a distance. An- other is that value represented by the cost of inaking garments may wisely be left to be sup- plied by Belgian hands. In thousands of in- stances the opportunity for employment which the making of garments would give will be al- inost as great a boon to jobless Belgians as the gifts themselves. Contributions of shoes, stockings and under- wear, and especially uncut cloth suitable for garments, are requested. In co-operation with the plan, all the department stores in St. Louis will sell at reduced prices cloth by the yard or piece destined for Belgian use on these three days. La rd » i gn of ST. LOUIS’ PAROLE SYSTEM. How the Parole Board, which was created by ordinance in July last, has proved its usefulness was shown in an interesting page in Sunday’s Post-Dispatch Magazine, which told of several instances of the reformation of men and women and the restoration of peace in families through the efforts of the parole officers. The parole system of the St. Louis courts has amply vindicated itself. But the cases described in the Post-Dispatch Magazine article gave the reader an insight of life under conditions where even parole would have failed but for the indi- vidual and personal service now possible. Under the new system, the court can keep in touch, through its trusted officers, with those paroled and, as man to man, smooth out difficulties and stimulate character. Everyone agrees that interference by police- men, detectives or court officials with men and women who, though they may have gone wrong, are now living as they should, is unjustifiable. But the cases in which interference is necessary and has been useful are those in which a paroled husband, for example, continues the wrong-doing which brought him before the court and caused his family suffering. A probation officer, in such cases, may be a ministering angel, if he acts with sympathy, firmness and good sense in a con- scientious effort to solve the problem. = = rw BUNCOMBE AND BELGIUM. An interesting centennial anniversary is only five years away. It was in 1821 that old Congressman Felix Walker of North Carolina, once an associate of Daniel Boone, rose in the House to debate a mueasure—the Missour! Compromise, as is said— and waved aside the weary members who gath- ered around and attempted to persuade him to yield the floor. ‘I talk for Buncombe,” he said. Buncombe, a North Carolina county in his dis- trict, thus lent its name to a phrase as well under- stood in British legislatures as our own—a name which, abbreviated to “bunk,” is universal in slang. A century of buncombe talking is drawing to a close with little diminution in the practice. On the contrary, its vogue seems likely to be in- creased by distinguished examples. No buncombe more easily and unmistakably recognized as bun- combe has ever been talked in all the years since 1821 than the buncombe Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Root are talking about Belgium. Buncombe is of so many kinds and degrees that perhaps we should now have supplementary phrases to discriminate among different shades of meaning. When the “bunk” is of such a tenuous sort that everybody perceives at once that it can’t be anything but “bunk,” we might say that its distributers are “talking Belgium.” "rT i le - re LOOKING TO AMERICA. — Os JUST A MINUTE gy en Ag Rg a a OE a a ay Ay a nt fll arene ne - THE WAR. T will interest a great many of us to learn that | while the war goes on in the field with un- abated vigor and hatred, the psychologists have wound it up, peace has been signed, and we are now in the process of reconstruction. You will be curious to know how it turned out. Well, the cause of the Al- lies won. The Allies themselves lost, but the cause for which they stood was eventually taken over by the Central Powers, and there shall be no more sup- pression of the individual in Europe for the good of the State. All Europe shall be exactly as France and England conceived it should be before the war broke out, and for the German wille, an impersonal domina- tion of the personal motive, we are to have the English will, in which the personal motive dominates all things else. The Germans are convinced that their point of view was a mistake, and they have receded from it. They won the war, but their cause lost, as they now cheerfully admit was right and proper. The psychologists cannot dilly-dally, as the various military commanders must. They work swiftly and surely to a solution of whatever is before them; and having determined what the outcome must be, they blithely shake hands and proclaim peace. They would have wound up long ago had not the war been largely causeless. They found it necessary to provide causes, and by the time they got these in hand for a starting point the war itself has been on for something more than a year. Once started, they rapidly overhauled the conflict itself, and they have now both passed it and put it out of mind. The detail with which the war follows them to outcomies at which they have al- ready arrived is to them only tedium and something for people who cannot think. If you are one of these latter, you are welcome to the war news. It is for you to say. You will of course wonder what our own country did about preparedness. It got over it. After Roose- velt and a few other hotheads and non-thinkers had been suppressed, the country took the money it had made out of the war and applied it to the restoration of Burope.

Europeans fell on our necks and decided, like our- selves, to go unarmed. Thus did the war come out— a blessing to humankind in the end.

Proportionate to poulation the Swiss are the best defended people in the world. In two days they can mobilize a trained citizen army of 200,000 men; within a week 300,000 more—every man of the 600,000 trained to shoot, to march, to ma- neuver and take care of himself in the field. Yet the Swiss are intensely non- militaristic, intensely devoted to love | of justice and peace. Their Constitu- tion expressly prohibits the mainte- nance of a standing army and spe- cifically forbids a war of aggression. They are essentially armed and trainea for defense and peace. With what poignant regret must Le of peace instead of their own defen- sive prowess! With approximately twice the population of Switzerland, Belgium, with the Swiss system, could have thrown 1,000,000 trained defenders upon her German frontier, and history would record a different and less tragic story of this war. Against that heroic and determined array the German armies would not have marched to strike at France. They would have deemed it wiser to move directly against the French on the Franco-German boundary. Belgium stands today a frightful warning against the folly of inade- quate defense. The danger of inadequate defense hangs over the United States—inade- ae unhappy .

HREE months later, poor, wretch- ed, limping, a mere shadow of his former self, Ross Worden re- turned to the city which he had left with such high hopes. When he report- ed to his news bureau it was to be treated coldly, indifferently, as a man who had failed to make good. It was then that he learned that the news he had gathered at such peril had been used by Disbrow, who had received high credit for the sanie. | The discovery crushed him. He was still: fil from his wotnd received in the explosion. He sought poor, obscure lodg- ings; he was prostrated with a fever. To pay his way his landlord piece by piece pawned his few possessions—evern the loving cup.

If Connie Mack expects the youths he snared from the minor leagues last sea- son to help the Athletics in the coming American League marathon, these same rookies will have to do better in the ring than they did in 1915. Of the 14 kids who will be taken on the spring training trip by Mack and last year played in the -.inors, er one had a .300 batting average. The lone .300 swatter was Stellbauer, an outfielder from the Three Eye League, who hit .301 He was at bat only 19% times, though. Murphy, a catcher from the New York State League and Pick, an infielder from the international, were next best with .292 and .291, respectively. Perkins, another receiver, from the Raleigh team of the North Carolina League, was fielding leader, topping his rivais, with a 990 ptrcentage in 115 contests. The six pitchers, all of them but. two coming from leagues lower than Class B, made poor showings.

Schulte thinks he’s as good as ever. When his ballplaying days are over, Tom Griffith, outfielder of the Reds, is going to be a song-writer. At present he's doing a turn in vaudeville and composing popular airs. t that he’s a pretty fair meadow- man, Larry Cheney, the spitballer, has notified Manager Robinson of the Superbas, that his injured knee has entirely mended and that he expects to be as good as he was in 1914 with the Cubs.

It is said that Barney Dreyfuss, owner of the Pirates, is after Ed Reulbach, the right-hander, ‘last season with the Balti- more Feds. At present Dreyfuss states he would rather say nothing about the matter. George Whitted. who played in two world's championships in as many seasons, has a brother who has signed to play with in the Virginia League, this season. Speaking of nerve-racking finishes and tight all-season races, doesn’t it appeal (to you, friend, that the stage is set for a rec- ord-breaker in the American League this season? It’s a six-club race, viewed at long range, for only Cleveland and wom ve gp ae are hopelessly out of it. And under such conditions it’s barely ssible that Detroit's low percentage of .588 may be beaten this campaign. it is, the followers of the American League will see the greatest race in baseball's history. Last year the Chifeds won the Federal with .566. That's the low- est winning average on record. It means that at least four teams are bunched in a whip-and-spur drive to the wire. It means sustained interest to the bitter end and that in turn means big money at the gate But the Browns, we are told, now represent an investment of $800,000, including the pur- chase price <o6f $525,000 and the , deficit at Grand and Lacleed. hat means that big money must be made to show anything but another loss.

DENY THEY WIL PLAY FORM A. A. Report Stated That Presbyterian Stars Had Lined Up With Downtown Club. PIKER FIVE VERY LUCKY | Billikens Get the Worst of the Breaks in First Game of Varsity Series. . There is an opportunity for the cham- pionship race in the mid-week divi- sion of the Municipal League to become an even-up affair, tomorrow. As the teams now stand, the Battery A and Euclid quints are deadlocked for first place with three victories and two de- feats apiece, while Commerce and the American Brakes are tied for third with a two-and three record. Tomorrow each of the leaders takes on one of the runner-up teams, — the Euclids meeting the A. B. five and the soldier boys tackling Commerce. Play in the league has been unusually even all season and Municipal League followers would not be surprised to see each of the quintets with a .500 mark Friday morning. The double-header wili be played at Francis gymnasium. The usual twin double-header of the A. VU. circuit will be played. tr- night, the Columbian A. C. and Chrir- tian, Brothers’ College courts being the scenes of action. On the Tangled C floor, the South Broadway A. C. and Barracks tossers will engage in the opener while the Columbian A. C Southern A. C. contest will complete the bill. The Missouri A. A. team plays tne Union A. C. and the Brothers meet a i H, at the C. B. C. gymna- sium. C. A. C. Has Strongest Five. As the league race now stands, the Columbian A. C. and Missouri A. A. quints seem best in their respective di- visions. At that a post-season series between the two teams for the league title would result in about as close a struggle as the St. Louis U.—George- town football game did last Thanks- giving day. If the league champions are to be rewarded with a post-season trip, Van Dach, Zachritz, and Ce, may as well start packing their suit cases now. It was circulated about town that Hodge and Nies of the Grand Avenue Presbyterian five, would join the forces of the M. A. A. If this were the case, the C. A. C. passers would have to struggle for their laurels. However, Hodge states that he never intended playing with the Cherry Diamond quint as he would only play with one team. Russell Nies, one of the best guards ever turned out of the Interscholastic League, claims that he would not play with a second team until the Sunday School League has completed its schedule. Pikers Nose Out St. L. U. The St. Louis University basket-ball five failed to break that spell that has been cast over Billiken athletic teams, when in, com- petition with fashington University ath- letes last night, although Coach Grogan’'s a came nearer to doing it than any Bil- ken team has since the resumption of ath- letic relations between the two schools, The Pikers gained a long step to the goal of the iocal collegiate title by defeating the Grand avenue team, 23 to 21, at Meugge’s eourt.

Washington scored seven field goals, while the losers tossed six. Berry netted nine free throws and Hansel counted the same number. Incidents that rarely occur in a basket-bal! ame came up last night and hurt the Bil- ikens. In the middle of the second half they were not allowed a field goal scored by Heinz because Donohue, who had been replaced, was slow in retiring from the game and was on the court at the time. Wash- ington was awarded a foul which Berry scored. On one occasion, when Ber was tossing from the foul line, a Billiken fouled and two more free throws were awarded the Pikeway captain. He netted both of them. These two incidents practically lost the game for St. Louls U. Crippled McKinley Wins. The highly touted Smith-Manual five failed to live up to its reputation yesterday after- noon, and was easily defeated by the Mc- Kinley High team, 23 to 11, in a game on which the local scholastic title rested. The high school quint played without the serv- ices of Capt. Palmer, the scoring star of the team. Something was the trouble with Coach Hill’s team yesterday. The green and white tossers did not look as good as they generally do, as the fact that they scored but two field goals will attest. McKinley netted nine goais from the field and at Yhe-same time did not seem to have as many shots at the basket as their West End opponents were allowed. The trouble lay in the Smith forwards and) center. Hamilton, Roberts and Imse were way off color, and none of these layers broke in to the scoring column. Th he two guards, Antrim and Weidlich. played cleverly and divided the points be- tween them. The former scored seven free throws, Ww hile Weidlich tallied a pair from the field. A splendidly played game of last night was the contest between the Principia Academy and 8t. dT ame teams, the latter winning out, 41 to 39. The Principia team only last Saturdav vicet another tough en- counter to the McKinley High five, 51 to 44. Last night’s gamee+was evenly con- tested from the start. and the advantage changed often.
