Bailey described the lights which the pilot beat for the steamship would carry. “I knew at the time,’ said Bricker, “that the vessel had been sunk, and remarked: “ ‘Supposing I told you that the boat had been sunk?’ He said that could not be, as the boat was not coming until Monday. He then told me who he was, and said he had landed with Case- ment and Monteith, and that they had come from Germany in a German sub- marine.” A Russian Colonel, Nicholas Belaiew, who is in this country on special work for his Government, identified the rifle produced in court yesterday which was taken by a diver from the wreck of the German steamship Aud, as one made in the Rugsian Poula Works, in 1915. The cartridges, however, were not of Rus- sian make. The inference drawn by those in court was that part of the war materials shipped from Germany con- sisted of captured Russian rifles, ammu- nition for which was made in Germany. Lieutenant-Colonel Ggrdon _ testified that the map which Casement and his companion brought from Germany and buried in the sands was similar to those made by the German war staff. It evi- dently had been reproduced, the witness said, from British survey maps. Story of Casement’s Trip From Ger- many Told Yesterday, The testimony yesterday dealt with Sir Roger’s trip from'Germany to Ire- land in a submarine, his Capture and the fate of his arms ship. John McCarthy, a farmer of Curra- hane, County Kerry. told of finding the collapsible boat in which Casement, Bailey and a man named Monteith, who is still at large, landed at Tralee. McCarthy said he pulled it ashore and found a dagger and a tin box, On his way home he met his children, who were playing with three revolvers they had found near the shore. Saw Signa) Lights. Other witnesses from the same dis- trict told of having seen cignal lights at sea the evening before Good Friday. The most interesting testimony was the story of the fate of the German ship Aud, which was sent out from Kiel with arms and ammunition to fulfill in part promises of assistance said to have been made by the Germans. : The Aud was held up off the west coast of Ireland not far from Tralee, by the British naval patrol ship Blue- bell and was being taken to Queenstown when she was sunk by her own crew. Details of the capture and sinking were given by Sidney Waghorn, a sig- nal man on the Bluebell, who said: “Early Good Friday morning the Blue- bell was on patrol duty off the south- west coast of Ireland when we sighted a ship flying the Norwegian colors. We signaled her and asked who she was and where she was bound. She replied that she was the Aud, bound from Ber- gen to Genos. At that time we were about 130 miles west of Queenstown. ‘We ordered the Aud to follow us, but she did not do so until we fired a shell. WEDNESDAY EVENING, MAY 17, 1916. AMERICAN LOST WHEN DUTCH SHIP WAS BLOWN UP Two Other U. S. Citizens on Board the Batavier V Were Saved. LONDON, May 17.—The American em- Lassy was informed today that Luigi Martini Mancini, an American citizen, vas drowned when the Dutch steamship Batavier V was blown up in the North Sea. Two other American citizens who were on board the steamship were saved, Mancini, a wireless expert, was from Roswell, N. M. The blowing up of the Batavier, a 1500-ton vessel, was reported in a dis- patch to Lloyd’s from Great Yarmouth. Four members of the crew were lost and the remainder landed at Great Yarmouth. The Batavier V was on her way to London from Rotterdam. The reduced number of British ships sunk by submarines during the last fort- night and the German promise in the rote to the United States to sink no ra4re steamers without warning, has caused the underwriters to reduce the premium on war risks by one-half of one per cent. 3 Americans on Caandian Steamer Which Was Sunk. WASHINGTON, May 17.—The Amert- can Consul at La Rochelle, France, to- day reported to the State Department that three American citizens were aboard the Canadian steamship Dretria which was sunk on Friday, presumably by a mine. A dispatch from Consul Skinner at London yesterday stated that Lloyds re- ports declared the steamer had been torpedoed. Both dispatches agree that the crew was uninjured. BRYAN WON'T BE A DELEGATE Says “Malicious Statements” Have Been Made by “Corporation Papers.” LINCOLN, Neb., May 17.—William Jennings Bryan is not going to th Democratic national convention as an alternate from Nebraska, nor as a delegate from any other state, accord- ing to an announcement made today. Neither is Charlies W. Bryan, defeat- ed candidate for the Democratic guber- natorial nomination in Nebraska, plan- ning to run independently or as the candidate of another party. Bryan's statement was made, he explained, to “correct the deliberate and malicious misrepresentations of corporation-con- trolled papers.’’ rian bluejackets, with three officers. Ten minutes later the Aud _ sank, about a mile and a quarter from the lig htship.”’ Waghorn was followed on the stand by a diver, who inspected the wreck ot the Aud for the purpose of confirm- ing the statement that she had arms and ammunition aboard, it being claimed that she carried 20,000 rifles for the rebels, besides other war ma- terial. “The Aud lay In about 18 fathoms of water,” the diver said. “She had the Norwegian flag painted on her hull. I found a hole in her side 12 or 14 feet in diameter. On the bed of the sea I saw a lot of rifles and am- munition.’ The witnesses identified one rifle, parts of several other rifles, a bay- onet case, and eartridges he had brought away with him. The prose- eution produced several other inter- esting exhibits. Among them was 4 bend bag, which was found turied on the shore where Casement and his cormmpanions landed. “This bag contained the green rebel flag shown at yesterday’s session, a considerable amount of ammunition ani several maps of Ireland. It is charged that these exhibits show the purpose cf prisoners in visiting Ireland was to par- ticipate in the uprising. A touch of humor was added when Mary Gorman told :e: story of meet- ing Casement and his two companions as they were leaving the beach. She spoke in a brogue so broad it was nec- essary to ask her to write the words hefore they coulc be understood. This she cid smiling). . After identifying Casement she told how she had seen him later in the day in the custody of a Constable. She did not recognize Bailey. Sergt. Hearne of the Royal Irish Con- stabulary, who.was summoned by Mc- Carthy when he found the boat, and who arrested Casement near Tralee, tes- tified that, accompanied by Sergt. Riley, he searched the country, and found in the old fort ‘“‘a man—the prisoner in the dock—the tall man, Casement.” The Sergeant continued: Gave Fictitious Name. “T asked him who he was. He said his name was Richard Morton, that his home was at Denham Bucks, that he was an author and that he had writtan a book on the life of St. Brendan.” Hearno asked the prisoner whence he had come and he replied Dublin. To 93 further question he said he had no pass- port. Hearne said he did not see Sergt Kiley take from Casement a document giving an account of his movements tn Germany, but there was a small paper, written in a foreign language, taken from him. On the way to the station Casement dropped a roll of papers, which the police recovered. Martin Collins, a farmer's lad of 12 years, who was called to identify Case- ment as one of the men arrested near Tralee, told with evident pride how he had driven Casement and a Constable for several miles when the prisoner was be- ‘ng taken to headquarters. After the hearing had been in progress some time Casement turned his atten- tion from the testimony to the writing cf a long statement. While thus engaged he showed marked emotion for the first NITRATE CLAUSE IN ARMY BILL Hardwick’s Speech Delays Adoption of Report of the Conferees. ! SENATORATTAGKS WASHINGTON, May 17.—Attacks on the provision for a Government nitrate ' plant incorporated in the army bill de- ' layed adoption of the conferees report today in the Senate. Senator Hardwick of Georgia led in the attack, charac- terizing the provision as dangerous, socialistic and paternal. The debate was broadened out by Sen- ator Lodge denouncing the reduction in the Senate provision for the size of the regular army. “With got a soldier 1€¢t on the Atlan- tic coast from Maine to Fortress mMon- roe, and the Pacific coast in the same condition, today they are taking the coast artillery to take care of the little trouble in Mexico,’ said Senator Lodge. “It peems to me practically incredible that either branch of Congress should be willing to put $20,000,000 into a nitrate plant at Muscle Shoals or some other place and not be willing to give the country soldiers enough for its immedi- ate defense against troubles so trivial as confront us on the border. I do nor believe our conferees could have gotten more. I am thankful for what they did get, but I don’t want Senators here to be under the delusion that they have gotten what they should have for their | country.” : Senator Newlands suggested the ad-| visabllity of refusing to accept the con- ference report. “IT am not willing to run the risk of losing what little we have gained in this bill,”” responded Senator Lodge. ‘I think it was the original plan of those: in the House to do absolutely nothing.” Senator Smith of Michigan declared @ current report that the War Depart- ment had advance information of the raid at Columbus, N. M., and had not taken proper steps to prevent it, should be investigated. Senator Fall agreed that the War Department should be in- terrogated on the subject. and said he intended to address the Senate soon on the subject. WOMAN ASKS POLICE IF SHE [S WANTED ‘FOR STARTING WAR’ Taken to City Hospital When She Talks in Rambling Way of Mur- der of Saloon Keeper. A woman 55 years old, who said she was Lydia Kinderman of 4933 Arsenal street, walked into Central District Po- lice Station today and asked the desk | Sergeant if she was wanted by the po-: lice, and what for. She was asked what she thought she was wanted for, and, she replied: “For starting the German war.”’ The desk Sergeant telephoned for an | ambulance, when the woman com- menced talking in a rambling way of the killing of John Connors,‘a former policeman, who went into the saloon business, and who was shot and killed in his saloon, at Warne and Cottage avenues, by robbers, in 1907. It devel- oped that she lived next door to the saloon at the time of the killing, She was sent to the city hospital, after re- sisting the efforis of six policemen to put her into an ambulance. C. C. Nicholls on Trial for Realty Fraud Continued From Page One. creditor transaction and that it was en-' tered as an account on the books of the. Nicholls-Ritter-Goodnow Real Estate! Co., of which Nicholls then was presi- dent. Both Harvey and Maroney asked Judge Grimm to examine the deposition ut William F. Humes, former president | of the Ashdown Co., and to say wheth- | er the transaction was in the nature of a trust fund, to be paid out only tn | payment for work on the Nina place: building, or whether it was a Jebtor-! creditor transaction. The defense con- tends that Nicholls, as the representa- tive of the Ash:lown Co., merely bor- rowed the money and had a right to uge it In the regular course of the cor- poration’s business. Maroney said a similar situation ex- isted when he was an assistant to Cir- cuit Attorney Folk, and that the Circuit Court at thdt time decided that in such transaction the tnoney was borrowed and that there wrs no criminal liability and that title to the property involved was invested in the real estate dealer. The Circuit Attorney said a ruling on this point by Judge Grimm would assist the Circuit Attorney's office, as numer- ous complaints, similar to the one in the Nicholls case, had been made. Harvey also told of his search for eight ledger leaves from the Nicholls- Ritter-Goodnow books, which have been missing since the grand jury inquiry into the Nicholls transaction. s Harvey said he was under the impres- sion that Fred W. Lovett, formerly em- ployed by Nicholls, brought the sheets to the grand jury room when he ap- peared there as a witness, and had taken them away. Lovett says he left the sheets in the grand jury room. Nicholls is the last of a number of by the Post-Dispatch last summer, the of. which were the numerous for- of deeds of trust by A. H.

Wade, in a spéech before the members’ conference of the Busi- ness Men’s League at the Mercantile Club today, as the principal reason why St. Louis is not keeping pace with the other cities which are trying to dislodge it as the fourth city. Wade declared that unless St. Louls awakes from its lethargy its people w'll be apologizing in three or four years for being St. Louisans and Missourians. Unless the different organizations of St. Louis unite and pull together for the good of the city, he declared, St. Louis will be the fifth, sixth, or possibly the seventh city after the next cengus, yout Missouri will drop behind Texas, an possibly other states, in population. He said it was unpleasant to have to give utterance to these facts, but that it was better they be told now than to be held back until everybody would be ashamed to be known as a Mis- sourlan, “It is a disgrace and a shame that every Missouri railroad is in the hands of a receiver,” he said. ‘“‘Why? Be- cause we have neglected our civic and public duty. We have not demanded that railroad rates should be adequate, and that vested capital should have equal rights and protection with labor. “Go into your streets at night and they look like a graveyard or a desert. Look at your vacant property here, and your office wuildings with 75 per cent of their space idle. Look at tha securities of all of your utilities corpora- tions steadily declining in value. The banks of St. Louis have made little progress during the past 15 years. Look into the balance sheets of your newspa- pers, and, with one er two exceptions, you will find that none is making any money. “The remedy is this: The Business Men’s League, which started 25 years ago, has done wonders. But we should, have an amalgamation of the organiza- tions of St. Louis to puil together. The the Business Men's League into one su- preme body. ‘This body would be strong enough to say to anybody who treats St. Louls unfairly in the matter of taxation or legislation, ‘You will never again be body or elected to an official position,’ We must unite into one great, moving things that will result in St. Louis re- taining its present place among the cities of the country.” M. L. Wilkinson, president of the Scruggs, Vandervoort & Barney Dry Goods Co., also spoke and indorsed what Wade had said. The other cities, not- ably Boston, Cleveland and LDetrolt, which are crowding St. Louis for fourth piace, had brought all their important organizations into one central body, he said, and this body had accomplished great things for those cities. If ths different organinations of St. Louis should be merged, he said, it might be pagsible for St. Uoculs to jump into third plave, instead of falling into fifth, sixth or seventh. Henry Morganthau, former Ambassa- do: to Turkey, and Arthur Morey will be the speakers at the luncheon next. Wednesday. The league's campaign for 000 members will be started next week.

No evidence was presented, Wil- son said, which would show that Gold. | felder had anything to do with Mc- Cune’s reported loss of a purse contain- ing $20. Goldfelder, who has been at liberty on a common law bond since 11:30 Monday night, will be freed from the bond when he appears in court. 4s told in yesterday’s Post-Dispatch.

Later, missing his purse, he decided that he had left 't_ in the pocket of one of the garment He followed Goldfelder, and caused tw? policemen to question him. As Gold. felder denied having any knowledge >f the missing money, the policemen let him proceed. When McCune went on duty at, the Dayton Street Statioh Monday evening, he told of the matter, and Capt. Single- ton sent two special officers after Gold- felder. Although he repeated his denial, he was held until he furnished bond. Capt. Singleton said today that he thought the first policemen who ques- tioned Goldfelder should have made oa more thorough inquiry. He said that. after hearing McCune’s story, he con- sidered it proper to have the man ar- rested. SCHOOL DANCING ABANDONED Youngstown, 0O., Disapproves of Chil- dren Appearing in Scant Costume.

In reporting the raid the police said they had been sending daily reports te the Excise Commissioner for 32 days - regarding Cokoris’ practice of permit- ting women to drink tn his cafe. Last night, they said, was the first time they had seen women of known bad reputa- tien there. : A special report on the raid was sent to the Excise Commissioner. Rumsey. when asked about the receipt of the previous reports, extending over more than a month, said: “I have been receiving from the po- lice what 1 call snooping reports about that place, but the report received this morning was the first one which justi- fied me in citing Cekoris. I acted promptly when it was reported that the women found there were objectionable characters.”’ Ruameey Closes Only One of Twe Sa- loons of Lig Viclater. Excise Commissioner Rumsey today ordered the closing of Oscar Lindberg'’s saloon at 123 South Fourteenth street for an indefinite period, because Lindberg sold beer on Sunday, April 9 but he will be permitted to continue operating another saloon at 2% South Twelfth street.

FOR LEADERSHIP OF PENNSYLVANIA Senator’s Candidates Apparently Win at the Primary Over Gov. Brumbaugh’s Men. P.C. KNOX FOR SENATOR Ford Gets Votes by Stickers— Hughes Beats T. R. 2 to 1 in Vermont. PHILADELPHIA, May 1i.—Interest in the first presidential preferential elec- tion tn Pennsylvania yesterday was overshadowed by the contest for leader- ship of the Republican party in the State, in which Senator Boies Penrose apparently was victorious over Gov. Brumbaugh, after one of the bitterest figh of the organization. The fight centered in the office of Auditor-weneral and the returns early today indicated the nomination of State Senator Charl.cs A. Snyder, representa- tive of the Penrose element, over Charles A. Ambler, standard-bearer of the Brumbaugh forces, by a comfortable margin. Twelve Delegates-at-Large. Tn the fight for the election of 12 dele- gates-at-large to the Republican na- tional convention, the Penrose faction apparently elected the majority of the candidates. The Brumbaugh element, however, claimed the -election of the Governor and Mayor Smith of Philadel- phia. The Brumbaugh candidates are pledged to support the popular choice of the party in the State, while the Pen- rose delegates are uninstructed. There were only two candidates of the presidential preferential ballots, Presi- dent Wilson on the Democratic, and Gov. Brumbaugh on the Republican, but Henry Ford received a large number of votes by the use of stickers, a million of which had been: distributed by his business agents. Scattered Votes for Others. Some Democrats voted for Ford. Former President Roosevelt, United States Supreme Court Justice Hughes and others received a scattered vote. Philander C. Knox was unopposed for the Republican nomination for United States Senator to succeed Senator Oliver. In Philadelphia, the $114,400,000 loan bills for rapid transit and municipal improvements were approved by a large majority. Hughes Far Ahead of Roosevelt in Vermont Primary. MONTPELIER, Vt., May 17.—Justice Hughes of the United States Supreme Court had a lead of about two to one over former President Roosevelt in the Republican presidential primaries yes- terday, according to the showing of in- complete returns.

CRUISER ON SHOAL REFLOATED: 8 REPORTED LOST Reports Conflict About Fate of _Men in Whaleboat From the San Francisco. BOSTON, May 17.—The United States cruiser San Francisco, serving as mine-laying ship, was aground on a shoal in Nantucket Sound for several hours early today in a gale, during which it was reported she lost a whale- hoat containing eight members of her crew. The San Francisco was floated later without assistance and was not greatly dainaged. Observation from the cruiser was impossible because of the rain and the fate of the eight men reported t- be missing could not be learned. Messages saying the men were lost were received a: two stations, while of- ficers of the Charlestown Navy Yard. which was in touch with the cruiser most of the time she was aground, said they had no word that any men were missing. The San Francisco, bound from thls port for Newport, R. I., is in command of Commander Reginald R. Belknap When she struck wireless calls for im- mediate assistance were sent out, as the wind was blowing a gale. The call was answered by the battleship New Hampshire and the coast guard cutters Acushnet and Gresham. One message said the San Francisc» struck off the Old South Shoal, while enother said she had grounded on Greit Round Shoal, at the entrance of Nan tucket Sound.

WAUKEGAN,Vil, May 17.—Selection of a jury in ‘the trial of Will Orpet, former University of Wisconsin student charged with\ the murder of Marion Lambert, Lake\Forest High Schoo! girl, continued today. Three tentative jurors have been selected from the first venire of 1% and & hew venire was called to- day. The most 1 Sean developments in the case since it went to trial ocourred yesterday when Orpet’s attorneys an- nounced thetr client would testify in his own behalf. Orpet was the only witness to the death of. the girl, all other evi- dence to be considered being circum- stantial. His story is considered as of the greatest importance to the defense. State’s Attorney R. M. Dady an- nounced that Miss Celeste Youker, the De Kalb (Ill.) school teacher, to whom Orpet said he was engaged, will appear as a State witness. In an address to the new venire of 100 men, Charles H. Donnelly, the pre- siding Judge, asked that they realize the importance of the situation and an- swer honestly the questions asked them. “I want you gentlemen to realize that if you answer dishonestly you are guilty of perjury and are unpatriotic citizens, in trying to evade jury service,” he said. ep His statement was occasioned by the fact that one after another veniremen summoned in the trial declared that he had formed a fixed @“‘nion and could not try the case faif7¥. None of the venire was asked.what his opinion was and through the. morning one by one Ahey stepped out of the jury box free to return to their homes. Outside the ccurtroom they said that from what they had read and heard of the tragedy they believed Orpet guilty. FIRST REGIMENT TO TAKE 600 TO NEVADA ENCAMPMENT Two-Weeks Intensive Recruiting Has Brought From 100 to 125 More Men Into Ranks. Lieutenant-Colonel Robbins of: the First Regiment N. G. M., said today that results gained by the two weeks of intensive recruiting by the regi- ment, preparatory to the brigade en- campment at Nevada, Mo., July 15, were satisfactory, and that the regi- ment expected to gain between 100 ond 126 members therefrom. The reg- imnt numbered 500 men when re- cruiting was commenced. The aim of its officers was to go to camp with a minimum of 600. An official report or recruiting results will be made at the armory on Thursday night. Additional recruits are expected to join the regiment Letween now and oncampment time, but those who failed to join prior to the close of the company’s books last night will not receive pay from the Government for their time. The Government requires that recruits be in the regiment 4 days before encampment. The First Regiment has, during the past 10 weeks, organized a new ma- chine. gun company, which gives the regiment a total of 13 companies. The new company contains 49 mem- bers, within three of war strength. It has been equipped with complete accoutrement by the Government. The equipment itnecludes four S-caliber Pernet-Mercier guns, capable of fir- ing 400 shots a minute, and a pack train of 12 mules. Capt. Norman B. Comfort of the new company announces rifle practice for his company next Saturday after- noon and all day Sunday. The prac- ticing will. be done on the Missouri River, opposite St. Charles. INDICTMENT AGAINST CANCER SPECIALIST IS DISMISSED Dr. A. J, Miller, Charged With Fraud, Produces Depositions Reciting Cures He Had Made. The indictment against Dr. A. J. Mil- ler, a cancer specialist, with offices in the Holland Building, was dismissed to- day by Assistant United States District Attorney White, after an investigation of some of Dr. Miller’s cases. Dr. Mil- ler was charged with using the mails to defraud in his practice. He took the depositions of patients in Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Mis- souri, Washington and Iowa, who testi- fied to having been cured by his treat- ment, and when these were presented to the District Attorney he decided that a case could not be made against Dr. Miller. The indictment against Dr. Miller was returned in a crusade against adver- tising physicians two years ago.

Ark., May 17.—Mrs. Arthur Arnold, 2% years old, died at her home near here following the am- ...ation «f a leg in which she had re- ceived a gunshot wound at the hands of Conley Sitton, a neighbor farmer. Sitton escaped. The neighbors had quarreled about a horse. Both are declared to have em- ployed violent language in discussing the incident with others.

R Weeks Said to Have Lost Sup- port Because of Morse’s Fight on Hadley. United States Senator John W. Weeks of Massachusetts, Republican candidate for President, has lost the support of a majority of the Misgouri delegates to the Republican national convention at Chicago as the result of a factional fight over the chairmanship of the delegation, according to several members of the del- As a rebuke to the stand-pat- terse who have been fighting the pro- gressive element of the delegation, it is probable that the progressives will throw their vote to Roosevelt for Presi- dent early in the proceedings of the convention. A few weeks ago % or more of. the Missouri delegates were in line for Weeks, at least on the first ballot. One of the delegates said today that he be- lieved Weeks would not get more than two votes out of the 36—those from the Third District, and he was not sure that more thdn one of the Third District dele- gates would be for him. Morse Feared Hadley. The change in the lineup of the dele- gation with respect to the presidential candidates was brought about by a plan to further humiliate former Gov. Had- ley, one of the four delegates at large. had not asked to be elected chairman of the delegation, but E. L. Morse of Excelsior Springs, manager of the Weeks campaign, conceived the idea that he might be a candidate for the honor, and proceeded to round up the delegates for Berryman Henwood of Hannibal, youngest member of the dele- gation. The delegates will meet in St. Louts next Tuesday. Hadley, angered at the fight Morse is making upon him, has started out with the intention of being elected chairman of 'the delegation. He has been attacking the stand-patters and charging that the politicians oppos- ing him were inspired by selfish mo- tives. Hadley has also threatened to make a fight to prevent Jacob L. Babler from becoming Republican National Commit- teeman to succeed Thomas K,. Nied- ringhaus. Babler was elected without opposition by the Republican State con- vention, but Hadley takes the position that the delegates to the national con- vention have the power -to elect the National Committeeman, and that the action of the State convention was il- legal. He accuses Babler of being in league with Morse to prevent him from being chairman of the delegation. Announces Vote of Delegation, All that the chairman of the delega- tion has to do is to announce the vote of the delegation on the floor of the convention on each roll call. The two Kansas City delegates, C. C. Madison and Thomas R. Marks, have started the fight in behalf of Hadley for chairman of the delegation. At a re- cent conference of the delegates it was found that all but seven would support Henwood, but some of the delegates say now that sentiment has changed on ac- count of the useless fight upon Hadley and that Hadley will win out.

He spoke of the difficulties of the presidency and particularly of the motives which have guided his handling of the European sit- uation. “America,”’ the President said, ‘‘is for peace because she loves peace and be- Heves the present war has carried the nations engaged so far that they cannot be held to ordinary standards of re- sponsibility.” But he added that the United States has grown to be one of the great na- tions of the world and therefore must act “more or less from the point of view of the rest of the world.” “If I cannot retain my moral influence over a man except by knocking him down occasionally,’’ he said, “if that is the only basis he will respect me, then for the sake of his soul I have to knock him down occasionally.” Kept Awake Nights. | The President declared he had been kept awake nights considering the Eu- rcpean situation, because thexe might come a time when the United States would have to do what it did not desire to do, and “the great burden on my spirit has been that it has been up to me to choose when that time came.” He added that he did not conceive that he had been elected President to do as he pleased. ‘If 1 were it would have been very much more interest- ing,”’ he sald. Impressions of public men as a class were given frankly by the President, with the comment that some grew and some swelled. He also discussed the relations of the newspapers to the af- fairs of the nation, and sounded a warn- ing that false information about for- eign affairs was more than likely to lead to trouble. The President’s remarks as original- ly delivered were read by him care- fully before being made public, but no important portions were eliminated and the wording was not changed substan- tially. Following is the text of the Presi- dent’s speech: ' “T am both glad and sorry to be here; glad because I am always happy to be with you, and know and like so many of you, and sorry because I have to make a speech. One of the leading faults of you gentlemen of the press is your inordinate desire to hear other men talk, to draw them out upon all occasions, whether they wish to be drawn out or not. I remember being in this press c'!ub once before, making many unpremeditated disclosures of myself, and then having you with your singular instinct publicly instst that I should give it away to everybody else. “IT was thinking as I was looking for- ward to coming here this evening of that other occasion when I stood very nearly at the threshold of the duties that I have since been called upon to perform, and I was going over in my mind the impressions that I then had by way of forecast of the duties of President and comparing them with the experiences that have followed. I must say that the forecast has been very largely verified and that the impressions I had thén have been deepened rather than weakened. Presidency an Inconvenient Job. “You may recall that I said then that I felt constantly a personal de- tachment from the Presidency: that one thing that I resented when I was not perfe¢ming the duties of the of- fice was being reminded,that I was the President of the United States I felt toward it as a man feels toward a great function which, in working hours, he {is obliged to perform, byt which, out of working hours, he is giad to get away from and almost for- get and resume the quiet course of his own thoughts. I am constantly re- minded as I go about, as I do some- times at the week-end of the personal inconvenience of being President of the United States. “If I want to know how many people live in a small town, all I have to do is to go there and they at once line up to be counted. I might, in a cen- sus-taking year, save the census takers a great deal of trouble by ask- ing them to accompany me and count the people on the spot. ‘Sometimes, when I am most be- set, | seriously think of renting a pair of whiskers or of doing some- thing else that will furnish me Bnd. ——— eing | ell repared 5 means much towards the preservation of your health.

There is a singular variety among our citizenship. it is true, a greater variety even than I had anticipated; but, after all, we are all steeped in the same atmosphere, we are all surrounded by the same environ- ment, we are all more or less affected by the same traditions, and, moreover, we are working out something that has to be worked out among ourselves, and the elements are there to be dealt with ut first hand. “But when the fortunes of your own country are, so to say, subject to the in- ing through other parts of the world. then the strain is of a singular and un- precedented kind, hecause you do not know by what turn of the wheel of fortune the control of things is going te be taken out of your hand: it makes no difference how deep the passion of the nation lies, that passicn. may be so cverborne by the rush of fortune in circumstances like those which now exist that you feel the sort of—I had almost said resentment that a man feels when his own affairs are not within his own hands. Is Under a Strain. “You can imagine the strain upon the feeling of any man who is trying to interpret the spirit of his country when he feela that that spirit cannot have iis own way beyond a certain point. And one of the greatest points of strain upon me, if I may be permitted to point it out, was this: “There are two reasons why the chief wish of America is for peace. One is that they love peace and have nothing to do with the present quarrel, and the other is that they belleve the present quarrel has carried those engaged in it so far that they cannot be held to ord!- nary standards of responsibility, and that, therefore, as some men have ex- pressed it to me, since the rest of the world is mad, why should we not sim- ply refuse to have anything to do with the rest of the world in the ordinary channels of action? Why not let the storm pass, and then, when it is all over, have the reckonings? “Knowing that from both these two points of view the passion of America was for peace, [I was, nevertheless. aware that America is one of the na- tions of the world, not only, but one of the chief nations of the world—a na- tion that grows more and more power- ful almost in spite of herself; that grows morally more and more influential even when she its not aware of it: and that if she is to play the part which she most covets, it is necessary that she should act more or less from the point of view of the rest of the world. If I can not retain my moral influence over &@ man except by qnocking him down occasionally; if that is the only basis upon which he will respect me. then for the sake of his soul, I have to knock him down occasionally.”’ Quotes Ralph Connor. “You know how we have read in-- isn't it in Ralph Connor’s stories of Western life in Canada?—that all his sky pilots are ready for a fracas at any time, and how the ultimate salvation of the sours of their parishioners de- pends upon their using their fists occa- sionally. If a man will not listen to you quietly in a seat, sit on his neck and make him listen; just as I have ak ways maintained, particularly in view of certain experiences of mine, that the shortest road to a boy’s moral sense is through his cuticle. There is a direct, and, if I may be permitted the pun. «2 fundamental connection between the surface of his skin and his moral con- sciousness. You arrest his attention first in that way and then get the morah lesson conveyed to him in milder ways that, if he were grown up, would be the only ways you would use. “So I say that I have been aware that in order to do the very thing that we are proudest of the ability to do, there might come a time when we would have to do it in a way that we would prefer not to do it; and the great burden on my spirits, gentlemen, has been that it has been up to me to choose when that time came. “Can you imagine a thing more caicu- lated to keep a man awake at nights than that? Because, just because, I did not feel that I was the whole thing and was aware that my duty was a duty of interpretation, how could I be sure that I had the right elements of information by which to interpret truly? People Think for Themselves. “What we are now talking about is lsrgely spiritual. You say, ‘All the peo- ple out my way think so and so.’ Now, I know perfectly well that you have not talked with all the people out your way.

It will develop and will either go in the wrong direction or decay.’ I reminded him of this thing that the English writer said, that if you want to keep a white post white you cannot let it alone. It will get black. You have to keep doing something to it. In that instance you have got to keep painting it white, and you have got to paint it white very frequently in order to keep it white. because there are forces at work that will get the better of you. Not only li it turn black but the forces of moisture and the other forces of nature will penetrate the white paint and get at the fiber of the wood and decay wil set in, and the next time you try to paint it you will find that there is nothing but punk to paint. “Then you will remember the Red Queen in ‘Alice in Wonderland’ or ‘Alice Through the Looking Glass,’ I forget which, it has been so long since I read them—who takes Alice by the hand and they rush along at a great pace, and then when they stop Alice looks around and says, ‘But we are just where we were when we started.’ ‘Yes,’ says the Red Queen, ‘you have to run twice as fast as that to get anywhere else.’ | True of World’s Affairs. “That, gentlemen, also is true of the world and of affairs.

Two conferenoes will be held this aft- ernoon at the headquarters of the Mas- ter Builders’ Association in the Century Building in an effort to bring about peace in the building trades, which has been disturbed since a strike was de- clared three weeks ago by the Hod Car- riers’ and Building Laborers’ Union, Lo- cal 22. The strike has been supported by other trades associated with the Building Trades Council. After a conference yesterday, an agree- ment was reached between contractors and union leaders in which there was to be no recognition of the laborers’ or- ganization as a union and a wage scale was agreed upon.as follows: Wreckers, 25 cents an hour; excavators, 274% cents an hour; building laborers, 20c an hour. This agreement was accepted by the union leaders, »ut- was later refused vy the contractors making up the recently organized body of employers known as the Wreckers’ and Excavators’ Associa- tion, because of the wording of the agreement. The members of the Wreckers’ and Excavators’ Association informed F. G. Boyd, secretary of the Master Build- ers’ Association, this morning, that they would agree to pay building labor- ers 30 cents an hour, but would insist upon a maximum of 20 cents for wreck- ers and 2% cents for excavators. Strikers Still Out. The action taken by the contractors dcing excavating and wrecking caused the Building Trades Council to keep the strike in force upon buildings where excavating or wrecking was being done. This includes the new Post-Dispatch building, the extension of the Wagner Electric plant and the Luyties building at 4200 Laclede avenue, At a number of other buildings where only overhead work is being done‘the laborers were ordered to report for work this morn- ing. A new difficulty then arose which re- sulted in strikes being renewed upon sume of the buildings. This difficulty grew out of the interpretation by union leaders of the agreement that while the Hod Carriers’ and Building Laborers’ Union would not be recognized, that there would be no “discrimination.’’ Maurice J. Cassidy, secretary of the Building Trades Council, told a Post- Dispatch reporter this morning that the union leaders understood the agreement to mean that the contractors would re- employ all of the men who went upon strike and would not employ any non- union labor. Several contractors ex- pressed the opinion that the agreement called for the open shop and enabled contractors to employ union or non- union laborers as they wished. . “We will not stand for any open shop,”’ said Cassidy. “We have per- mitted men to return to work today upon all buildings where only union men including laborers, are employed. We will not permit work to continue in cases where contractors employ non- union laborers.”’ One of the leading contractofs con- nected with the Wreckers and Excava- tors’ Association telephoned Boyd at the Master Builders’ headquarters dur- ing the morning that the association members had agreed not to accept the conferenee agreement upon payment of wreckers and excavators. Talk of Arbitration, Throughout all the negotiations there has developed a strong feeling on both sides that some method of permanent arbitration must be devised. Louis J. Haenni of the Gilsonite Con- struction Co. has suggested that a per- manent board of arbitration be created to deal with all disputes between emplov- ers and employes. He proposes that tiie board should consist of an equal num- ber of employers and employes, who may choose an impariial referee, and that the board’s activities should include not only the building trades, but all local indus- tries, ——.§ ——_—__. MEDIATION BOARD MAKES CHICAGO A CHICAGO, May 17.—Chicago, in so far as the building trades are con- cerned, has Lecome a “strikeless city" since the organization here of a per- ranent Joint Arbitration Board in Fetruary. 1915. Simon O’Donnell, chairman of the Advisory Board of the Chicago Building Trades Council, the arbitration board. There have been no important building strikes in Chicago since the settlement of the disagreements be- tneen employers and * employes in May, 1915, through mediation on the pert of this board. The board was formed by the elec- tion of arbitration committees to rerve one year by the Building Con- struction Employers’ Association and the Chicago Building Trades Council. Considerable opposition to it was raised in the council, although O'Donnell always had Leen a strong unionist and has been on the side of labor in some of the hardes fights the unionists ever made in Chicago. It was provided that the two arbi- tration committees meet in January each year in joint session, elect a president, secretary and treasurer and umpire, who are to organize a joint arbitration board for each ensuing year. The umpire, it was agreed, sh:culd not be affiliated with the building trade. It is stipulated that ali disputes that cannot be settled by the parties concerned shall go to the. aibitration board, to which full power ts» enforce agreements between em- ployers and unions was given. Building in Chicago thie year has bcen unhampered by strikes and both werkmen and employers agree that the *fact that there has been little trouble fs due to a larwe extent to the Ray + new st trv it today ‘Allen .

The three Judges of the County Ccurt, Prosecuting Attorney Ralph, Highway Engineer Elbring and Fred Essen returned to Clayton today after putting in 10 days in the East. They paid their own expenses on the trip. Judge Wietthaupt said today that the. fatal mistake of road builders in the past has been the construction of narrow highways. The new roads in the county will be at Isast i8 feet wide, he said. He said the County Ceurt had also come to the conclusion that engineering was highly impor- tunt in connection with the construc- tion of the roads. The party visited Cleveland, Buf- fajo, Boston, Springfield, Mass., Hart- ford, New Haven, New York, Wash- ington and Pittsburg, and took drives over many different kinds of roads.

Nearly 200 small sons and daugh- ters of prominent St. Louisans will tcke part in the new children's play, “Undine,” which will be presented for the first time Friday night at the Shubert Theater. The play is by Eogalind Mahler-Pufeles, with music arranged by Maxwell Goldman, and will be given under the direction of Jacob Mahler. Friday night’s per- formance will be repeated the follow- ings afternoon. Several unique ballets, typical of the medernized version of the old Undine myth, which forms the subject of the play, are being rehearsed. One of the most elaborate of these is the “dance of the bathers,” by 18 girls and boys of seven and eight years of age, led by Robert Bartlett, son of-Dr. and Mrs. Willard Bartlett of 4257 Wash- ington boulevard. Two girls who have sclo parts in the dance are Aileen, Lonsdale, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jchn G. Lonsdale of 9 Kingsbury place, and Eugenie Edmunds, daugh- ter of Mr, and Mrs. Sterling E.

To keep the face clean, fresh youthful, there’s nothing better than common mercolized wax. It absorbs the soiled or faded worn-out skin particles. Cosmetics simply add’ un*holesomeness to the com- plexion. That’s the difference. By all means, acquire the mercolized wax habit. It's so easy to get an ounce of the wax at the druggist’s, apply at night like cold cream and wash it off next morn- ing. There's no detention indoors, the old skin coming off so gradually no one suspects you're using anything. When in a week or two the alluringly youth- ful. roselike underskin is fully in view— well, you won't want, or need, a make- up complexion after that. It must be apparent that this process means com- plete riddance of all cutaneous blem- ishes. like freckles, pimples, blotches and blackheads. For obstinate wrinkles. a face bath made by dissolving an ounce of saxollite in a half pint witch hazel surpasses nassage- eS ae and everything else for a results.—ADV —— Good Digzstion is absolutely essential to health.

TWO MOTHERS TELL How Their Sickly Children Were Made Strong and Well. “For six years our little girl suf- fered from a bronchial trouble, she had no appetite, could not sleep and was so nervous we had to keep her out of school. The doctors said nothing but a change of climate would help her. We were discour- aged, when one day a friend asked us to try Vinol, and after taking six bottles she does not look like the same child. She has a fine apyetite, is lively, healthy and well; and Vinol did it all.”—Mrs. F. E. Hufford, Ivla, Kan. Another child made strong: “The measles left my little girl thin and delicate, and the doctor's medicine did not seem to build her up. I read about Vinol and got a bottle, and her improvement wé«s rapid, her strength returned and she is now as well as ever.”—Mrs. E. Linot, Pittsburg, Pa. We ask every St. Louis mother of a frail, sickly, ailing child to iry Vinol on our guarantee to return their money if it does not restore her child’s normal health.

WASHINGTON, May § 17.—Restric- tions on commerce by the British or- ders in council are credited here with being the cause of sharp declines in American exports to the northern Eu- ropean neutrals during the last year. Figures assembled in the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce show that Norway alone of the coun- tries in the north, had increased ptr- chases in ‘the’ United States. Spain and Switzerland, however, are buy- ing’ in America in increasingly large 2@rmounts. Shipments to the entente allies con- tinue to grow. During the nine months ending with March, Great Britain took slightly more than #§i,- 006,000,000 worth of American goods, against $630,000,000 in the corre- sponding period: of the previous year. France’s purchases grew from $224,- 000,000 to $442,000,000; Russia's from $12,000,000 to $128,000,000;- Italy's $138,000,000 to 0200,000,000: Greece’s American takings increased from $19,000,000 to $22,000,000. Denmark's American purchases ceclined during the nine months’ period from $62,000,000 to $44,000,000; the Netherlands from $101,000,000 to $74,000,000; Sweden's from $65,000,000 to $43,000,000. Norway's grew from $22,000,000 to $37,000,000. Exports to South America than doubled, increasing from $632,- 060,000 to $129,000,000. Shipments to the Asiatic countries increased from $76,000,000 to $156,000,000. : An increase of about $300,000,000 more , in imports came chiefly from South \merica.

M. ‘ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH. — a HARDEN PRAISES AND MAKES FOR IMMEDIATE PEACE WILSON BOLD PLEA | Germany Not Likely to Get Any Opportunity as Favorable to Her as Now, Noted Editor Writes. % Special Cable to the New York Werld and the Post-Oispatch. LONDON, May 17.—Savage relLukes to those highly placed newspapers and others who have been abusing Fresident Wilson, the United States Goverhment andthe American people generally, in connection with the submarine controversy and munition supplies are administered in the “Zu- kunft” of May 6 by its editor, Maxi- milian Harden. PSE oe The article, which is entitled “The Real Wilson,” is a brilliant defense of the idealism of the President and the justice of the State Department’s submarine policy as exemplified in the recent “ultimatum” The,article also is notable for the suggestion that the same war zealots who opposed “surrender” to America on the submarine issue are the ele- ments which are stubbornly prevent- ing Germany from seeking peace at the hands ef her enemies at a moment which is more favorable to her than any she is like to be vouchsafed hereafter, Quotes Frem “New Freedom.” Harden’s defense of President Wilson against his German traducers. begins -with a quotation of several paragraphs from the President’s book, ‘““‘The New Freedom,” and continues: “I have quoted these sentiments of Woodrow Wilson in order to show what manner of man it is against whom so many vituperative words have een hurled during the past few weeks and months. He has been called a misty professor, an anti-German, who has taken a vow to prevent England’s defeat by all means, a wretch who has been bought by En- gland, etc., ad nauseum et inflinitum. ‘‘Let us now, once for all, burn ninety- nine-hundredths of al] the so-called lit- erature produced between the war cov- ers! Let us consign al] poems, hymns, speeches, novels, tracts, pamphlets, swagger and bluster to the only place where they can still be of any use— namely the paper mills! Let us turn once again to the books capable of gen- erating real inspiration-in our -souls! Then, perhaps, common sense may re- turn to its own and arouse tn us a duty! aiid off into the swamps. of respecting the human dignity. of other nations. ; “As we have requited Rodin and Hod- ler; Maeterlinck and Verhaeran, Kip- ling and Wells, Forain and Reamaekers, Spetler and D’Annunzio, and heaped upon them angry German abuse, so have we aspersed Wilson simply ‘because he preferred English culgjure and political ideals to those of Germany. “Whether the President of the United States is an eagle or not will have to te. judged when he spreads his wings for a high flight. President of High Moral Rank. “What is certain is that-he is a man of high moral and high intellectual rank —a man of whom, if he belonged to us, we might be proud. President WH- sor. is at least an American Fichte. “Fichte was Germany's professor- statesman, who aroused humbied Prus- sia to new sense of power after she had been crushed by Napoleon. “Wilson, born in Virginia, is the son of a mother of Irish ancestry and a father of Scottish origin. There is cer- tainly nothing in the blood of this man, who ts nearly 60, to make him an idolatrous devotee at England’s‘shrine.”’ Having traced President Wilson's ca- reer and emphasized the ‘high motives by which he always has shown himself to be influenced, Harden continues: “This American ruler loves his people and is determined to lead it aloft to a height of ideals from which it has Germany must be ashamed of the people who, simply because of the filthy stuff that has been printed in the papers, have stooped to besmirch him. “Wilson, the professor of political economy, who now speaks ii the name of the United States of America, sim- piy takes his stand on the conviction that Germany has not lived up to the pledges she gave in 1915 in regard to, her conduct of submarine warfare. He demands nothing more or less than that we return in our naval practices to a procedure strictly conforming to the dictates of humanity and international law. “Are we to judge the complaints of the great free, youthful and strong na- . ee oe Ril | worth—Wilson—speaks . by tion for whieh a man of weight and = rules of a student’s controversy? Are we to judge with words and talk. about forbidding this or that ‘tone’ if President Wilson, after a thorough examination, is con- vinced that a long series of German acts of war have ‘bored holes through the laws of humanity and international morality ? e Net. Only Right, buat Duty. “He not only has the right but the duty to speak’ with -ruthiess‘ plainness. He owes the ‘fulfilment ‘of this duty not only to hig own but also to our country. For we do not wish—neither the people nor the Government—that the impossi- ble should be promised or the promised not kept. | ’ “Whether that had happened or not we: can only judge: when. the darkness of the state. of siege—a condition of af- fairs I. say to the Emperor and Chan- cellof that cannot be tolerated much longer—has béen lifted and an objective investigation of actudl events if pos- sible. 7 “Wilson demands . nothing new. Against his principle that even in the most terrible war the voice of human- ity and international Jaw must be heard ..obody with even a veneer of morality or of culture could protest. “The Princeton professor could | cite Goethe and Bismarck in defense of his position. | a ; ‘The Imperial Chancelior, in seeking evidence from boti:, sides before makink up his mind whac to answer, is not weak: He is strong. li¢ is filled with that sense of responsibility which the chigt guardian of Gernion loyalty and trust: |} worthiness. must, always, feel “The cleverness of the Chancellor mus} not resemble the cleverness of & syb- — ” _ wa 2 4 ee Night quality is.unusual.

WASHINGTON, May 17.—The com- pletion of the Elephant Butte Dam in New Mexico ft an achievement of which the natiot® may well be proud, President Wilson said in a telegram to employes of the Federal Reclama- tion Service who had charge of the construction. Secretary Lane, under whose direction the work was car- ried on, also sent congratulations. “The completion of the Elephant Butte Dam,” President Wilson wired, “is an achievement which arouses the patriotism of all true Americans. It shows what technical and business skill ang devoted energy and per- sistence can accomplish in combat with the forces of nature. The coun- try owes its gratitude and apprecia- tion to the men and women who have toiled diligently during the five years of constructive effort to pro- duce a result of which the American nation may well be proud.” The dam compared last Saturday forms the worl reatest storage reservoir, holding 866,000,000,000 zal- lons of water in a lake 45 miles long with an average depth of 65 feet. ~_-——_—_ — ~~ ——_- —- MAKING CHILDREN EAT Nothing is ever gained by forcing a child to eat when it refuses food. Make sure that nothing is being eaten between meals to destroy the natural appetite, and if ‘your growing child does not have a healthful craving for good, honest food at meal times there is something the matter. Threats of punishment if tne child does not eat hey not correct the difficulty. A fitful appetite in a growing child, specially if the patient is pule, lan- guid, nervous, irritable, and without ambition, usually means that the blood is ‘hin. A non-alcoholic tonic such as Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills is demanded. During her ‘teens a girl lays the foundation for her future health. Lack of blood at this time may rob her of robust, healthy womanhood. It is of the greatest importance to administer to girls who grow pale and weak a safe tonic and Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills | meet every requirement of the most eareful mother. They make the blood rich and red and.it carries renewed health and strength to every part of the body. Your own druggist sells Dr. Wil- liams’ Pink Pills.’ Send today to the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenee- tady, N.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 17.—A severe ar- raignment of Germany was made by David Jayne Hill, former Ambassador to Germany, at Newark, last night, in a lecture on international law before the students of the New Jersey Law School. in Wallace Hall. Dr. Hill’s references to the imperial Government was as fol- lows: “What confronts us is a situation in which economic expansion is in unholy alliance with the inherited preposterous idea of absolute sovereignty. It takes whatever it can grasp and hold. To ob- ain and maintain its grasp, it is pre- pared to perpetuate any enormity. It is ready to ruin the whole of Europe anc to challenge all the rest of the world in its mad career. It pours living men by the hundreds of thousands into the red, gaping crater of death. It rains explo- sives from the skies, it renders the breath of life a cruel poison by asphyxi- ating gas. It respects neither manhood nor womanhood, nor childhood. it threatens the dastruction not only of civilization, Whiuwh it has already wrecked, but the very existence of the human race. “We must, therefore, find a new law or human life will be impossible. And what shall the law be? On what shall it be based? On a wornout theory of the state, oncé relatively harmless, but now become preposterous? Upon the assumption that some nation, by its superiority of force or efficiency, is henceforth to rule the rest of man- kind? On the pretension that even the people—the all-wise and all-powerful people—are to do whatever they please, without legal restriction? “Shall we not rather conclude that the time has come for the nations, and espe- cially for this nation, to affirm in no doubtful terms that there are certain rights and duties of nations upon regard for which the future of mankind de- pends? ‘‘Whoever has closely studied the great turning points of history must be aware that new eras are originated by new ex- igencies.” At this moment we are pass- ing through that experience. Whether we are to be joined by others or left alone in splendid isolation is not our responsibility. We cannot do better, we must not do less, than to repeat the words used by Washington to the con- vention called to frame our Federal Constitution: ‘“*Tet us lift up a standard to which the wise and the virtuous may repair; the future is in the hands of God.’ ”’ The Best Workmen in St. Louis Are Offering to Assist You With Your Spring Clean-Up. are cleaners, wall paperers, decorators, upholsterers and who are asking you to call them by placing their invitations in the want columns of the Post-Dis- patch—under the general heading of Business Cards.

They painters, hi aest eminence can talk in such man- nér about things of which he cannot have the slightest authoritativé knowl- edge,’ Harden continues, *“‘Heydebrand says America maintained intimate relations with our enemies long before the war. Didn’t our own Govern- ment assure us at least twice each year that Germany maintained intimate relations with Italy, Japan, Portugal, Russia, and even Great Britain? “Such relationship was the good right of the United States. That it took the form of a treaty is improbable and can- not be proved by a single circumstance, “Heydebrand says that America at first took sides secretly, then. openly, with our foes. That requires to be proved. According to my knowledge of the facts, the republic has never once violated its neutrality. “ “Wilson is insolent. His arrogance cannot be surpassed. Americans are business people of whom the empire of greatness, Germany. should only speak in the terms of strongest contempt.

He speaks of “Our Cleons, who, like theée precursors of Athens who s0 long prevented a truce between the Athenians and Spartans, are letting the peace emissaries go back empty-handed at the most fa- vorable hour.’’ “Pericles, whom Cleon opposed,” continues Harden, “weighed every- rthing well before taking a decision. Cleon was for rvdshing headlong in the unknown and incalculable. He produced a mighty howl and din and stirred up a patriotic tornado.” Harden's allegory is interpreted here to mean that he and an influen- tial group of political, financial and industrial interests for which he is known to speak think the hour has come for Germany to seek and ac- cept the best peace she can get, in- stead of allowing her “Cleons’”’ to keep up the war to Germany’s bitter end.

These bonds had a par value of $14,000, but Van Hoefen said ihe trust company was not satisfied with tnem as collateral, ane demanded bet- ter security. Prices of KRANICH & BACH instruments Chouteau asked, according to Van Hloefen, whether a second deed of trust are very reasonable considering their high quality on the Bagnell home would be accepta- and desirable, important patented features such ble, and after an investigation of the value of the property, the trust company as the VIOLYN PLATE, ‘SPIRAL SPRING’ P@ cepiiea that it would be. WASHERS, ISOTONIC PEDAL, etce., ete. Then, the lawyer related. Chouteau went to Mrs. Bagnell, whose financial adviser he was, and persuaded her tv deed her homestead to him in exchange for the bonds. He told her, she says, that the bonds would assure her an in- - come of $60 a munth for life. She hes never received interest on the bonds, and believes them to be nearly wortu- less. Chouteau’s attorney, H. Chouteau Dyer, called on Prosecuting Attorney Ralph today and set forth Chouteau's side of the case. Ralph said, after Dyer OTHER INSTRUMENTS TAKEN IN EXCHANGE had left, that no prosecution would be begun until the testimony in Mrs. Bag- s 4 nell’s civil suit against Chouteau has Monthly or Quarterly Payments if Desired been heard. The case is pending in Judge McElhinney’s court. To start a criminal prosecution, it must be shown that Chouteau knew the value of the bonds to be less than he represented to Mrs. Bagnell. Attorney Van Hoefen believes the trust company incident has a bearing on this point. He did not have the documentary evidence that Noble desired, on his visit yester- day, and Noble asked him to return later. After Chouteau married Jane Bagnell, last January, he deeded the homestead property to her, and she deeded it back COT PTT eens to her mother, but incumbered with the MTTTITTITIT LLL TUTEITATTI IIL edd cS AU it MTtio8 $3500 second deed of trust which Chou- teau had placed on it. Mrs. Bagnell has tried, without success, to get Chouteau to remove this incumbrance. v w= ‘ ¥ HE KRANICH & BACH makes its appeal T to people whose musical tastes are above the average—people who appreciate real tonal beauty—people whose business intelligence teaches them that cheapness of price means dlis- appointing weakness of construction, transitory tonal qualities and false economy—people who know that in the substantial, artistic construction of the KRANICH & BACH, they get the perma- nent worth which they seek. No other store but Famous-Barr Co. in St. Louis has the outlet or could handle such a quantity of high-grade Suits at this time. You will recognize the superiority of the values at a glance. — Value-giving surprises follow in rapid succession in the Rousing May Sales, & here is one of the biggest value-giving surprises of all. We purchased the entire surplus stock of Spring & Summer Suits from Hambur- ger Bros. & Co. of Baltimore, whose wonderful products have earned a nation-wide enviable reputation, & we consider it a privilege to be able to pass these peerless clothes to our patrons at such a decided price allowance as our fortunate purchase makes possible. ooUNFRCRRORRERCORICLUGEDTCEUORTERCORC EERE Carita tectetsieacccstiag, .

Thres in New York and Two in Chicago. Newspapers LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE A Mother’s Request.—The Post-Dispatch has received a letter from a mother, with four chil- dren, whose husband has deserted her. She wishes to have two of the children adopted, as she is without means to support them all and is obliged to be away from them during the day. She says ‘of the two—a girl, 9 years old, and a boy, 5: i little girl is bright, quiet and refined. My boy is bright and quiet.” Any reader who #8 interested may obtain the mother’s address trom the editor of the Post-Dispatch. t Department Should Wake Up. ‘To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I see the Street Commissioner of &t. Louls is spending his time making Governors instead of building and repairing streets. Well, the streets of St. Louis, certainly speak in loud terms of the inefficiency of the Street De- partment. Liddell boulevard, between Union avenue and Skinker road, is full of big deep holes—a disgrace t» any city. This street was resurfaced only last summer, and even when the job was completed the surface’ was covered with srharp-pointed stone that was ruinous to automobile tires. Lindell boulevard, from beginning to end; King’s highway, Skinker road, and practically every other boulevard in the city, are like ocean waves, full of bumps and depressions. And, by the wary at ever became of that $5,000,000 voted by the/taxpayers to build King’s highway from O’Fallon Park to Carondelet Park? King’s highway, north of Natural Bridge road, ts just a big medhole,” It is not completed south of Gravois. T¢@ Mayor Kiel is so anxious to do some effective . Campaign work to build up his fences for re- election next spring, he could not do better than to improve our Street Department, so that the taxpayers who are putting up money for the streets would get value received. BUMP THE BUMPS. RS Political Posters. Ty the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The clean-up and paint-up campaign planned for our city is timely and a movement worthy of support and co-operation. ' 1 desire to call your attention to the fact that we are approaching a political campaign, when, to judge from past campaigns, our candidates will decorate buildings, fences and telephone posts and signs of different designs and which are meant to serve other purposes than those of beautifying our city, and then are ft to be removed by time and the elements. If ething could be done to prevent the posting these obnoxious signs or remove those which Rave been put up in violation of existing laws, a worthy cause would be served. Can you do any- thing in this matter? ¥F. D. 8S. "| The to Bryan. To the ‘the Post-Dispatch. aI am a Democrat. I do not think you are. You ate doing mors to defeat the administration than apy other force of which I am aware. Your an- tagonism to W. J.

Yet you, and most of. the press, do everything and’ most everything, decent language and the postal laws will permit to defile and misrepre- very much against preparedness, for many reasons, too - numerous to mention here, and ee to a “show down,” believe the ma- “will register the same, in spite’ of| © " you are making. me, if you think Billy Bryan is with. . without . adequate. ‘prove. |‘ Yours, TO ABOLISH LOCAL STRIKES. The tentative settlement of the labor contro- versy in the building trades, averting a costly war, suggests action on the excellent proposal of Louis J. Haenni-of the Gilsonite Construction Co., made in a letter to the Post-Dispatch, that a local board of arbitration be organized to deal with all disputes between employers and employes. ; The board would have to command the confi- dence of both sides. It should be composed of equal representatives of employers and employes, with an impartial referee chosen by these repre- sentatives. It should be organized with an agree- ment that both sides shall abide by its decisions, and that no action beyond referring disputes to it shall be taken by either side. Then strikes, with their attendant trouble and cost, would be avert- ed. The men would continue work while the board adjudicated controversies. As Mr. Haenni suggests, the jurisdiction of the board should go beyond the building industry and embrace all local industries. Thus industry of all kinds would be uninterrupted. The pros- perous activities of employers and wage-earners would be unchecked. Secretary Cassidy of the Building Trades Coun- cil is quoted in favor of the plan. Doubtless other labor leaders will fall in line when they consider its advantages. Similar boards are oper- ating with success in other cities. Its value to St. Louis cannot easily be estimated. Not only wage- earners and employers of labor, but the public, ‘| would reap great benefits. = = * in ee hth OFFICE KISSING DISCOURAGED. In the interests of higher efficiency the rule adopted against office kissing by the Stenogra- phers’ Union of Boston is a distinct advance. Even those kindly tokens which beautified the relation of employer and employe and relieved business of some of its harshness will be dis- couraged, as well as the osculation that savored of bribery which some employes submitted to in order to hold their places. When the “old kissers”’ are faithfully reported to the union and black- listed, and only male typists will serve them, it will be a pretty retribution. A similar scheme adopted and faithfully lived up to in St. Louts and other thriving centers of stenography would ren- der bustness more comfortable, if less distracting, and assist the general uplift. Female employes may have all of the respect they so richly deserve if they will exact it every- where. There is no meaner cowardice than that of the mongrel who insults the woman whom work forces to stand beside him, and when he is pointed out men are unanimously in favor of kicking him, metaphorically, and literally if the circumstances permit. But the business of point- ing him out is the woman's, = = * i i Maybe Opportunity is knocking at the Colonel’s door; maybe not. It may be the Colonel himself who is doing al] the knocking. MUNICIPAL BATHING PARTIES. Ex-Councilman Schneiderhahn is a very good, citizen, but he has been overruled. Representing. a. “Committee on Public Morals’’—a most excellent committee, too—he anticipated trouble at the municipal swimming pools this approaching sum- mer, due to the bathing of the opposite genders at the same time. Complaining that girls ap- peared in swimming gowns too short and minus stockings, he prevailed upon the Park Commis- sioner to make gq segregation order. But the Di- rector of Public Welfare, less squeamish, it ap- pears, has revoked the order and will permit a “party night” once a week at each pool when fa- thers and mothers, sisters and brothers, sweet- hearts and others of both sexes may swim to- gether. Men and women may breathe together in. the element of ether without violating either the constitution or the proprieties. They may walk, ride, dance, talk, eat, drink, sing, play duets, look at each other, and perform various other mild dissipations on dry land without inviting scandal. We see no objection to their amphibious inter- mingling and the extension of the proprieties to the water. We look upon drowning as the prin- cipal danger likely from the water. Because they can't seé under water is no reason for anybody except snoopers to be suspicious. If life were vision of the pure to whom all things are impure, what a boresome little affair it would be! An Australian, J..J. Simons, just back from a tour through the United States, sought to correct some of the misunderstandings of his people and dissipate their hostility to America by giving his impressions of this country. In this pleasant desire to promote a better feel- ing between the two countries, he overdrew the significance of what he had observed. He repre- sented the great majority of Americans as heart and soul with the allies in the struggle into which fatuous statesmanship has plunged unfortunate Europe. His scandalous exaggeration to the effect that our neutrality had “become a joke by reason of grossly ‘unneutral acts favoring the allies” ts not. to be excused even by the worthiness of his motive. | ‘But Australian hostility toward us is of too vio- lent and unreasoning a character to be disarmed even by testimony into which partiality had intro- duced ‘too friendly a tone.

The wrong-headedness of the attack has a cli- max in dénunciations.of the “callous, covetous, cOWardly attitude” of the United. States which “should be fighting on the allies’ side,” but which is only “pocketing the profits.” If we get into the war, it will be to protect our Own vital rights and the general interests of neu- trals and humanity, and not with any intent to fight Europe’s battles for her.

St. Louisans, don’t gouge! Don’t gouge each other. But especially don’t gouge the stranger and the guest. Guests are coming in great numbers about the middle of June. They are coming to attend the Democratic national convention. They will bring a lot of money with them and they will spend it with free hands, for that is the manner of Demo- crats when they gather at their national conven- tions. They will eat, drink and be merry and ride in taxis and all that, and will expect to pay the price, but they will not expect to be gouged, and if anybody gouges them they will resent it. If they are gouged, they will go back to their homes in the 48 States, Alaska, Porto Rico, Ha- waii and the Philippines, and tell the folks about it, and in all the States and outlying territorial possessions, St.-Louis will have a bad name, Assurance has been given that those who come to the Democratic national convention will not be overcharged. The assurance was given in good faith. The men who have charge of the arrange- ments are doing all that men can do to prevent overcharging. They have the earnest co-opera- tion of nearly all the elements of the community. But it has come to the knowledge of the men who bear the burden of the management that there are some who plan to pounce upon the stranger and pluck him. Predatory enterprise in high places was stamped out as soon as it was discovered, but it is not so easy to deal with it In low places. All St. Loulsans who have the good name of the city at heart will not only refrain from over- charging, but will discourage it and discounte- nance it in every way that they can. Let the few who may not scruple to profit at the price of the city’s repute remember that in the long run there {is greater gain in dealing fairly with the city’s guests, because, if they are dealt fairly with they will come again as individuais and as delegates to other conventions which St. Louis ‘may win through their good will. Gouging doesn’t pay; square dealing does. = = * rer For nearly two years the greatest war in his- tory has been raging, without the capture of a single great capital. What's the use? = = rw hw! SQUARE DEAL UTILITY POLIOY. In his loyalty to the interests of his client, Judge Priest goes so far as to say that the spirit which insists that the United Railways must pay its taxes is the spirit that drives capital and en- terprise from St. Louis. Agreement with such a view is, of course, impossible. ' Not the least of St. Louis’ handicaps to prog- ress were incurred in the old days of unregulated utilities, prodigal bestowal of long-term, cinch franchises and other characteristic abuses of In- visible government. That is sufficient to. contro- vert his conclusion. But his view is overwhelmed by the further circumstances that among modern cities those which are most successful in attract- ing capital and enterprise to themselves are cities which are most painstaking in regulating public service corporations. Cleveland and Detroit are two commiunfties which are reputed to be most restive under utility exactions of all sorts and most drastic in their su- pervision of such utilities in the public Interest. These two communities have an amazing pros- perity, relatively greater than that of other cities of their rank. And it may be noted as a coinci- dence that the period of their most remarkable advance began when they abandoned their former complaisant policy of toleration for utility aggres- sions and forced on their utilities a square deal policy of full compliance with the law and with franchise obligations. The spirit of the new St. Louis which is rego- | lutely combatting United Railways ingenuity, backed by the power of wealth, in tax-dodging, is & splendid advertisement for this town. No genu- tne cause for United Railways depression exists. Its five-cent-straight franchise does not compel it to give workingmen’s tickets tn the rush hours ot to give other concessions required by modern franchises. The mill tax total is only & small proportion of the sums traction companies in some towns have to pay for the use of the streets. >» +>, -"- = Tt might be as well to take presidential candi- dates from the Supreme Bench as from the bat- tlefield. VICTIMS OF WAR AND OF DISEASE. After the first few months of the war, interest- ing figures were compiled showing the effect of the mortality on the total losses of several large American life insurance companies whose busi- ness includes many risks in Canada and the bel- ligerent European countries as well as in the United States. The report of one such company whose figures have been brought up to Jan. 1, 1916, shows that 409 of its policy holders were killed in the war during 1915, 448 were killed by accident, 707 died of cancer, 772 died of pneumonia and 950 died from tuberculosis. death in the war are only 91 percent of all who met death by accident, 68 per cent of all who met death from cancer, 53 per cent of all who met death by pneumonia and 43 per cent of those who met death through tuberculosis. Civilian risks, of course, vastly outnumber ] military risks, but this does not diminish the im- pressiveness of the lesson. Those who combat disease..scourges in patient, unselfish effort are combatting a destruction that exceeds the ravages ously in peace as well as war. aye 3 In other words, all who met of war, that gathers ite deadly harvest continu- | | ee fps’ pee ee eet te Max Ch s-% . : ( tend - hat Soll ‘ “ 07, Seteetys 12%) ese " one ae 7 2. : 7 “* Jae cen e weal ow - oe ee he ot : .* ote > . a ’ + Nets a . a ae , os, * Se ; “* aoe” ? ~ oy ~) ~~. >. one * - % N. ee” red “A, > “ . ai “ ~ Ns es Fe ‘ ets - °. ~ £ , —. . - ~ + ye fxn Oe, >* ‘ -_ *« 7 in Mates Me” \ 7 Py “. — 4 + Nees ~ “ , ae * ., 3S . bay of Bay ff, “4.93 "THE FORTY.

Instead of practicing the family vir- tues, he wasted his time in acquiring stupid knowledge, going even so far as to learn reading :nd writing. He hardly knew the use of a sword, and his poor father felt humiliated whenever he looked at him. Wolf and Rogue were not guilty of such unfilial conduct. Neither of the... éould write his name, and they were so far from being pacificists that they treated cac other like cat and dog, uniting in love only when some injury was to be done to stupid Kuno. Count of Zollern, delighted beyond measure by the worthy bearing of the twins, built two noble castles on hills in hfé domain, naming them Rogue-burg and Stag-burg. These he intended to leave by will to the gallant pair. His wife, however, beset him with tears and wheedling. ‘‘Kuno,”’ she said, ‘is im- mensely rich through the wealth left to him by his mother. Her jewels alone are worth almost this whole domain. Shall he have rich, beautiful Hohenzol- lern also?’ . “He is th> first born!” growled the honest Count, but he yielded. «When his will was opened after his death it was found that Rogue had inherited Rogue- burg, that Hohenzollern had been left to Wolf and that to Kuno he had. be- queathed the castle of Stag-burg, adding to it, however, the rich city of Balingen. Kuno rode away quietly, though he wept inwardly to leave the place where he had been born and where his mother lay buried. As soon as he was installed in Stag->v-g he shamed his stepmother and noble brothers by giving full rein to his base proclivities. There was not a poor person whom he .did not visit and help. He associated with learned men though ‘.ey wore rags. Altogether he displayed himself as a thorough vul- garian, ° Kuno Makes Believe He Is Dead to Fool His Brothers IWEVER, the gentlemen of H Hohenzollern and Rogue-burg had a rich comfort. Kuno was not at all strong. “1 hope he’ll follow vur sainted father soon,”’ said Wolf to his lady mother. “Then, when Rogue and I divide his property, we will sell you the jewels cheap.”’ “What?” exclaimed his mother. “Is that my reward for obtaining Hohen- zollern for you?’’ She turned to Rogue. “You'll give me the jewels, won't you?’’ “The only thing that {; given away, lady mother,” said Reve, laughing, “is death.’ The three quarreled many times there- ufter over the spoils. Wolf and Rogue both sent men to vatch Stag-burg and they agreed that the one who learned first of Kuno’s death should fire all his cannon, in reward for which he was to have the privilege of selecting the best wines from the castle cellars. Kuno’s faithful squire learned of the sordid compact, and Kuno, hoping that it was not true, ordered him to ride out and announce that he was dying. As soon as the squire told the false news to the watchers they galloped headlong, each to his master’s castle, and presently the mountains rang with the cannonading from both _ strong- holds. Befo.e the guns had ceased smoking Wolf and Rogue both were riding to Stag-burg, each fearin that the other might take more than his share. They met at the drawbridge and clattered into the courtyard together. Their brother was. standing at a window. “From this time,’’ said he, “all bonds of kinship between us are dissolved.

Not only was it beautiful to look upon, but it had such a sweet voice that it could charin away sorrow and make tae very flowers tip up their pink heads to listen. Now, in the center of a large garden in the ancient time lived a magician called Wizik. He lived in a hut built of palms, but outside was a cool spring, and all about in the trees sang every kind of bird. And foremost among the songsters was the pretty little mosquito. Just outside of the hut door grew a patch of sweet, white clover, the kind that bees love so dearly, and of which they make such fine honey. Every day, just before dawn, some bees that lived in a hole in an old oak would come *o suck the sweetness from the clover blos- soms. But by cunrise they were gone. The old Wizik, who was cross and rheu- matic, noticed that something had been at the clover bed and determined to catch the thief. The mosquito saw his anxiety and offered to help. “IT am not a large bird,”’ he said. ‘‘] will watch the clover for you and let you know, if you will pay me what I want. It ts a drop of magic oil which you carry in that crystal bottle tied”to your belt.’’ ) Now, if there was anything which the Wizik valued it was this drop of oil, for it was the last on earth and he had been treasuring it for centuries. It possessed curious magical properties, but no one knew what they were, for no one wished to use the drop in finding out. But the Wizik made the promise. hoping to get out of keeping it when the time came to pay. N° one would dream to look at the ' OW, up undef the eaves of the hut N was a finy swallow hiding in its nest. The swallow and the bees had always been great friends, so it heard of this plan of the mosquito with sorrow. It loved the little bee who was so industrious, and thought the Wizik very cruel to wish to deprive any insect of the sweets from the clover. And as he thought about the matter he grew very angry and whisked his pretty black tail about wildly, for then he had 4% long, full tail, with every feather even straight across at the end. “TI will get up early and watch my- self,’ he said. ‘“‘Perhaps I can find some way to help out the ees.” So he got up long before sunrise an’ hid close to the open window, from which point he could see everythins that went on in all directions. Presentiv the sky grew pink. Over the meadow came the bees, and in a few moments settled on the clover. The swallow could see the mosquit® watching from behind a leaf. The sun rose brightly and the little bees hummeii their way home like golden specks in the light. Presently out of the hut came the Wizik. In his hand was the bottl- of oil, at which he looked every morn- ing in the first light. A Motive Power Experiment.

A spectator at the ringside of the Future City Athletic Club last night suggested that “Young” Benny be supplied with an “Oregon boot.” The suggestion was not without merit, because at the time Benny was mak- ing a farce of his boxing bout with, Jimmy Murphy. Prancing in and out, jumping in the air, bending backward and torward, slipping from side to side and circling the ring, waving his arms and qhurning them were some of the gymnastics in- duliged by Benny. It was funny, surprising, amazing and startling. It was all of that—but it wasn't boxing. Or, to qualify, if it was boxing, then marathon run. It was fine stuff for a burlesque, but to pass as an exhibition of scien-ific boxing, it was i::possible. Murphy laughed, and so did every- body else. But, as the bout (?) wore on round after round, the comedy be- came tiresome and ceased to be funny. Benny Holds on Well. sMoast of the spectators were pleased th the humor of the situation for a hile, but they had gone there to see oxing and Bsc iad that Benny -would some of , it. u : hough to do l share and Hemonsttated it by fol- lowing Benny all over the ring in a vain endeavor to head him off, but it was only Oecasionally that he succeeded in doing it. But *when he did, he made the most of the opportunity and belted Penny about the body or pecked him on the head in spots beneath the tangle of arms. Benny covers well, aii in this Way escaped serious damage when he was cornered. He also holds well, and did considerable of it last night by wrapping his right glove around.

FORMIDABLE TEAM INA. AU. GAMES Addition of Rawlings, McKendree Star, Gives Fitzgerald Well ‘Balanced Squad. Tom Watts, Verne Lacy & Co. for the aiunual championship meet of the West- ern District of the A. A. U., Paddy Fitzgerald, the Columblan A, C. coach, has already started to condition his atheletes for the meet. Fitzgerald is out to again win the honors with his Stars, and is leaving no stones uwun- turned about having them in shape. Last year, when the events were held at Maxwellton, the Tangled C fliers cleaned up everything except the weient events. But last year there was very little competition. This season, the Kansas City A. C. will send a strong team, while the M. A. A. also will be represented. When Fitzgerald last Saturday ob- tained the promise of Wyatt Rawlings of McKendree to carry the colors of the Tangled C this season, he just about rounded out his squad. Rawlings will compete in the meet, running in the half mile and the mile events. He negoifated the mile in 4m. 36s last Sat- urday at Francis Field, and the half in 2m 4s. C. A. C. Strong in Sprints. For the coming championships, which will without a doubt be decided at the new track of the C. A. C,, the club is especially strong in the sprints, with such stars as Irwin Mahl and Gus Aronson. Beck and Gray also may win places. Bob Probst and George Puchta as well as Gene Murray will be on hand for the middle distance runs to vie with Rawlings, while Asakainen, Edwards and Murray will be entered in the mile along with Rawlings. Ruff is the lone jumper at the club, while Childs, now a student of Mc- Kinley, is fhe club’s only pole vaulter. Bill Joern will try it in the weights.

O’Connor. Any willing, two-eared listener can conscientiously consider it an off-day when he daesn’t hear at least one heartless harrangue on the per- ennial enigma: “What's the matter, with the Browns?” This is the open season for Ifsteners, and they are being slaughtered wiih such reckless abandon that unless the State offers immediate protection there won’t be one of the two-eared specie left for the propagation of the race after July 4. he season closes on that date. Nobody gives a damson plum after Ir dependence day whether or no the Browns have something the matter with aa but just now everybody is wor- r " In an unguarded moment yesterday the writer fell into the trap of one of these public speakers, who didn’t have his keeper with him. It was a question of being an audience or a corpse and we were ill-prepared for the latter. Too Much Manager. “Do you want to know what's the matter with the Browns?” said he, by way of gently leading up to the unfin- ished business of last season. ‘“‘Well. I'll tell you. ‘There's TOO MUCH manager in that club. Old Barb Wire, as you guys choose to call Jones, has those players quaking in their boots. He's too domi- nant; too much of a Simon Legree. “Why, Branch Rickey, with a pitching staff composed exclusively of Carl Weil- man, had won more games on this date a year ago than Jones has today. And Rickey didn’t have Sisler, Marsans, Mil- ler, Johnson or Deal last spring. Ajll Rickey had was the habit; Jones has the makings. “Then another thing: The sport writ- ers made it tough for Jones. by over- boosting his club down South. You made us expect more than the club is capable of delivering. In fact, you made me sick. “You never stopped to consider that Jones will have a much harder time handling a college player than Rickey would. Men intellectually re- fined find it hard to -yield to the mailed fist. In fact they can’t do it and be succéssful. The so-called lot- ylayer can stand that gaff better. The chances are he grew up with it. saw a fellow make a bet yes- teen , that the Athletics would beat out the Browns and tf the price is right I'll take some of that myself. Mack has a system and a: majority of his players are trained in that system. “Jones also has a system, but it will take his men a year to learn it. And it’s my pet little hunch that Jones underestimated the strength of the American League. I think he’s right when he says he has a good club. He’s got a better club than Rickey had last season. But is up against the stiffest qgmpetition he ever faced in his whole life and he’s getting more than he bargained for. “He got a giggle out of me when he said the American Leagué was no stronger today than it was in 1908. Possibly Cobb, Crawford, Turner, Hartzell and a few others are no stronger, but there’s an army of young players in the American League who lay it over the 1908 gang like a tent. There are more good second Trine peene and more good reserve infielders and outfield- ers than there were then. The league is 40 per cent faster and Jones hasn't reckoned with this added strength. Ah! The Old, Old Story. “Neither has he reckoned with the class of men he has to handle. He has those kids afraid of their shadow and it will be hard to put heart in them again. Just remember this be- cause I'm in.a position to know. I’vo got frierids on the club that wise me up.to these things. Furthermore” We escaped and almost forfeited our life diving through the trapdoor of a pay-as-you-enter car. But we escaped and you can bet the fam- ilv plate that we won't be caught oft guard again. Another good liste ner has been ruined for the season! However, we will take time to .ear- neStly disagree with most of what has been said. The time hasn't come to bet that the Athletics will beat out the Browns unless you live in Phila- delphia. he time hasn’t come to quit on Jones, because the club is today only nine games behind Cleveland and it is our hunch that Cleveland won't win the pennant. Since when should we classe Coumbe, Coveleskie, Kiepfer and Hagerman with Foster, onard, Ruth and Shore. Or with Plank, Weilman, Davenport, Groom or Koob. Cleveland is getting "the breaks.
