AMAZED AT HIS ARREST; Former Cashier Says He Still Hopes to Pay Back $76,000 —English Also Held. Samuel W. Van Dyne’s arrest last night at his home, 5766 Westminster place, on a charge of embezzling $76,000 from the Missouri Pacific Railroad, of which he was the cashier at the St. Louis freight office for 11 years, will ve followed by a grand jury investigation to determine whether forgery, as well as embezzlemeut, figures in his diversion of funds. This statement was made to a Post- Dispatch reporter today by Circuit At- torney Harvey.“ The question involved, he said, is whether Van Dyne signed seven checks, for a total of $76,000, without the authorization of the other officers of the American Disinfecting Co., 2108 Olive street. Van Dyne is now vice president and local manager of the American Disin- fecting Co. His brother, J. R. Van Dyne, is president of the company, and an- other brother, Cooper Van Dyne, is sec- retary and treasurer. | At the company’s offices this morning it was stated that Samuel Van Dyne signed company checks, with the name of tho company and his own name, as vice president. Tells of Check Transaction. In Joplin last Friday, Van Dyne told a Post-Dispatch reporter, when ques- tioned, that he had written the seven checks for $76,000 without the knowledge of his brothers, but with the knowl- edge of his office assistant. He said the checks were made payable to the Missouri Pacific, and signed with the name of the disinfecting company. His own name, he said, did not appear on the checks. Van Dyne sid he himself as cashier for the Missouri Pacific in- dorsed the checks with the rallroad's rubber stamp and then deposited the checks in the National Bank of Com- merce to the Missouri Pacific's credit. The checks were drawn on the First National Bank of San Francisco, and in due time came back marked no funds.“ Van Dyne admitted to the re- porter that he knew at the time that the American Disinfecting Co. did not money in the San F'rancisco bank, but that he had the promise that $76,000, to cover the checks, would be deposited there by Ben Blair and A. L. Blair.“ the mysterious Texans to whom Van Dyne insists he gave the Missouri Pacific’s $76,000 last March. The grand jury investigation, Circuit Attorney Harvey said, would begin to- morrow. Missouri Paciiic officials and auditors who went over the cashier's books will .2 the principal witnesses. . English Also Arrested. The accounts of Edward J. English of €07A Hartford street, who also was ar- rested yesterday, charged with em- bezzling $3600, also will be investigated by the grand jury. English for years was Van Dyne’s assistant, and became cashier April 1, when Van Dyne re- signed. He was discharged May 1, while the audit of Van Dyne's books was being made. He signed a memorandum on May 2, at Van Dyne's request, stating that Van Dyne had no knowledge of his discrepancies. ; Assistant Circuit Attorney Baer, after talking with auditors and officials of the Missouri Pacific today, said there was nothing thus far to show that Van Dyne knew anythi: about the shortage in English’s accounts. English, he said, was the counter man” in the cashier's office, He took in money which ship- pers. sent direct to the office, whereas Van Dyne handled the larger amounts which were brought in by the company’s collectors. Assistant Circuit Attorney Baer said that Missouri Pacific auditors had told him that it appeared Van Dyne had deen taking the railroad’s money for two or three years. The method,. he taid, was to take cash out of one day's receipts, and to hold back checks -to 8 this amount, for deposit the next ay. The books, Baer said, closed each day before banking hours, and considerable cash and checks came in during the afternoon after books closed. He said that auditors believed Van Dyne man- aged to conceal his discrepancies, at audit periods, by listing as uncollected certain amounts which had been paid by check. On March 31, the day he quit the railroad, Baer said, Van Dyne, left t » 6, in American Disinfecting Co. checks at the freight office. These checks, if of value, would have made his accounts balance. As it was, they helped to conceal, for a time, the di- version of $76,000 of the railroad’s money. Baer said the Missouri Pacific au- ‘ahors told him English’s peculations had ever a period of nearly four money. paid over the counter to partly in cash and partly told that although \LANSING MAY BE NEXT PRESIDENT BUT FOR A DAY March 4 Falls on Sunday, and Inauguration Will Be on Monday. Rotert Lansing, Secretary of State, may te the next President. A St. Louis lawyer, who asked that his name be not used, gave this opinion to a Post-Dispatch reporter today, backed by reasons which sound plau- sible, whether or not they prove con- ciusive. This does not mean that Lansing will be nominated and elected to the presidency for a four-year term. It means only that he may fill that of- fice for an interval of 24 hours or less, because of he fact that March 4 next, the constitutional inauguration day, falls on Sunday. Fresident Wilson can held over, the expiration of his term, . n 4, i: a constitutional question. Thie ques- tion would exist just the same if he should be elected to succeed himself. The Vice President’s term ends when the President's term does. The Con- stitution designates the Secretary of State as the successor to a vacancy in the presidency when the Vice Presi- dent does not succeed. The Post-Dispatch's Washington correspondent asked Representative Webb of North Carolina, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, for his opinion on this matter. He said a situation might arise which would require Lansing to take the oath as Fresident Sunday noon, March 4, and ect until the inauguration of the new President the next day. But he added that he did not think anyone would seriously insist on this point, and that he believed President Wilson would hold over the Sunday interval. GERMAN AVIATOR ALIGHTS AT BRITISH AERODROME BY iIS.AKE Realizes Error Too Late, and Is Cap- tured—First Time Such an In- cident Has Occurred. BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN FRANCE, via London, May 24.—A vnique incident occurred yesterday when for the first time during the war so far as is known, an aeroplane mis- took a hostile aerodrome for its „un. Through the morning mist the a via- tors at one of the British aerodromes saw a@ German machine circling a: it were about to descend. Without in- terfering with its movements, thinking that it had lost its d . they watched it come lower until it finally swept past and came to a rest. The German aviator and his pilot saw their mistake too late when figures in khaki came running up and they realized that they were prisoners. The captured machine was a new one of the latest type.

Dowd, with feloniously intending, de- signing, contriving and devising with in- tent to cheat and defraud one Albert H. Pierce of his money. The information alleges that the five defendants obtained $2000 from Pierce on a deed of trust on a tract of land which they represented to be the Wilkins farm on Mill Creek, in Phelps County, and that the farm contained 240 acres of rich bottom land in cultivation, with large dwellings and barns and 80 acres of bearing orchard. It developed that the land described in the deed of trust was not the farm which Pierce asserted he had been shown, but a practically worthless tract of land in the hills. The deed of trust, according to the information, was exe- cuted by Bismark Lane and his wife, Rosetta M. Lane, to whom the worth- less tract of land had been deeded by Crites. It was alleged that Lane re- ceived 350 from Crites for executing the deed of trust. It was charged in the information that it had been represented to Pierce that Crites recently had bought the farm from a man named John Wilkins for $6000 and had resold it It was further alleged that Crites re- ceived $1470 of the $2000 obtained from Pierce on the deed of trust, having paid with the balance of the money. The farm which Pierce was shown, accord- and upon which he believed he was making the loan, was owned by Joseph Continued on Page 2, Column 7. —— — — J — — 7 umns DAILY.

WIFE ON THE STAND: Daughter of Slain Millionaire Sobs as She Testifies Against Husband Brother a Witness. NEW YORK, May %.—The sender of the mysterious K. Adams” telegram, which has figured in the case of Dr. Arthur Warren Waite, accused of the murder of his father-in-law, John E. Peck, - millionaire Grand Rapids drug manufacturer, was identified as Eliz- abeth B. Hardwick of Somerville, N. J., at Waite’s trial today. This was the telegram sent from New York to Grand Rapids, urging Percy Peck to have an autopsy performed on his father’s body. Miss Hardwick said she lived in the home of Dr. Jacob Cornell of Somer- ville, N. J., who testified yesterday that he called at the Waite home the day Peck died. She testified that she sent the telegram to Percy Peck after Dr. Cornell returned from the Waite apart- ment and that someone told her to send it. A question as to who directed her was ruled out. She was then excused. Miss Hardwick was on the witness stand only a short time. She testified’ that she sent the K. Adams’’ telegram on March 12 from the Grand Central Sation in this city warning the Peck family that Peck might have suffered foul play. Mrs. Clara Louise Peck Waite id her husband in the court for the first time today when she took the stand as a witness against him. Mus. Waite was dressed in mourning. Waite, sitting with bowed head all the forenoon. looked at his wife but she appeared not to see him. Mrs. Waite testified concerning her father’s visit from Grand Rapids to New York and said that Waite suggested that Dr. Albertus A. Moore be called to see | her father. „We- that is, father, Dr. Waite and myself—had planned to g0 to Hot Springs on a visit. Father appeared to be in very good health.”’ Wife on Stand Sobs, Some time after her father’s arrival here, fainting spells. Waite already has ad- mitted that he 4dnoculated him as well as Mrs. Peck with disease germs. The wit- ness told of an occurrence at dinner three days before Peck’s death, when Waite served her father with some oys- ters and later he remarked that the parent felt unusually drowsy. When asked if she noticed anything unusual in Waite’s manner, Mrs. Waite broke down and sobbed, but finally replied No., only what my maid told me later.“ She said her father’s condition grew gradually worse and she called in Dr. Moore several times. Mrs. Waite in continuing her testimony said her husband went out on calls“ at all times of the day and night. The night before her father died, she said, Waite gave him an egg-nogg, and Peck complained that it made him ill. Next morning her father was dead. John Cuniff, a special officer attached to the District Attorney’s office, recalled to the stand, identified several medical books found in Waite's apartment. One of them, he said, had been marked at a passage dealing with arsenic poisoning. Dr. Perry Schurtz of Grand Rapids, Mich., who said he made the aptopsy on Peck’s body in Grand Rapids, corrob- orated the testimony of other physicians as to the presence of arsenic in the body and declared it und ubtedly had caused death. Percy Peck of Grand Rapids, son of John E. Peck, testified that on Feb. 10 last Dr. Waite told him that his father Jong in years and that Waite would not be surprised if he lived only a short time. Peck died March 12. The witness said that, immediately aft- er Peck’s funeral, Dr. Waite asked if his wife, Clara Peck Waite, could ob- tain the use of her share of the Peck estate before the will was probated. Undertaker on Stand. In the testimony yesterday, Joseph Strattler, a Grand Rapids undertaker, asserted that when Dr. Walte left that city after taking the body of Mrs. John E. Peck, there he said: “There will de another funeral within three months.“ Dr. Jacob B. Cornell of Som- erville, N. J., testified that he saw Peck one day before his death and that Peck appeared to be in excellent health. Arthur C. Swinton told of meeting Dr. Waite at the hotel where the, dentist shared a studio apartment with Mrs. Horton. Dr. Waite told him that the young woman was a nurse. Dr. Leon S. Moos, connected with a drug manu- facturing concern, testified that Waite had purchased from him typhoid and diphtheria germs. | An undertaker testified there was no arsenic in the embalming fluid injected into Peck’s body, but that Waite had asked him if there was not areenic in the fluid. Eugene Kane, who em- baimed the body, said that Waite had insisted upon giving him a check for 39000 and later had asked him to put some arsenic in the embalming fluid to be sent to the District Attorney. Kane testified that Waite had given him a roll of bills amounting of 3,.. .

WASHINGTON, May 24.—The Sen- ate Judiciary Committee voted 10 to 8 today to report favorably to the Senate the nomination of Louis D. Brandeis to be Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. It was a strict party vote. No plan as to when the nomination will be taken up in the Senate has yet been formulated. The action “of the committee remained in doubt up to the time the vote was taken. Senator Shields, Democrat, of Tennessee; arrived in the capital today just in time to cast the deciling vote. He conferred with Senator Smith of Georgia before going to the committee room, but would not state his decision before casting his vote. Senator Cummins of Iowa was the only member of the committee not present. His vote, however, was recorded against confirmation. How the Senators Voted. Senators voting for confirmation were. Culberson, Overman, hilton, O'’Gor- man, Fletcher, Reed, Ashurst, Shields, Senators voting . gainst confirmation were: Clark of Wyoming, Nelson, Ditfi- Ungham, Sutherland, Brandegee, Borah, Cummins and Works. The vote is one of the final steps in a contest which started as soon as the nomination was sent to the Senate by President Wilson Jan. 28. Weeks were spent by a subcommittee taking testi- mony regarding charges against the nominee formulated by Committee of Citizens of Boston. The subcorhmittee recommended . confirmation by a strict party vote of three to two, The Judic- lary Committee has debated this testi- mony fully. Doubt existed as to the attitude of four Democrats—Senators Reed. .O’Gor- man, Smith of Georgia and Shields. To win a favorable report it was necessary for ali Democrats to vote for Brandeis. It became known last week that Weeks, O'Gorman and Smith would vote for confirmation, but doubt continued as to Senator Shields’ vote. Unethical Conduct Charged. | The charge against Brandeis was un- ethical conduct in relations with several clients and working under cover.“ President A. Lawrence Lowell of Har- vard headed the committee of citizens organized to fight: confirmation. ° Last year the Post- “Dispateh printed 15,204 Agent Wanted Ads, % more than — he 2 2 450-FOOT SUBMARINE SAID TO BE COMING FROM GERMANY New York Hears It Ie Ome of Fleet of Five to Carry Mail and Valuable Freight; Passenger Fare $5000.

NEW YORK, May A.—John J. Lahiv, erstwhile tailor and ald rman of St. Louis now a cattleman in Uruguay, Is in New York, having returned from France on the steamer Lafayette. He sailed from Bordeaux with the willing assent of the French Government after Secretary of State Lansing had wired over assurances of his American citizen- ship. He spent eight days in sunay France, but didn’t see much of the sun. “The only tuck 1 had over here was that I got cell No, 7 and to judge from the tone of a letter I gut from George A. Bucklin, the American consul, I seemed to need all the luck I could get hold of.“ Lahiv saled for France on the steamer Chicago some three weeks ag He had undertaken to deliver in Paris a trunk- ful and several gripsful ot samples of artificial limbs made by the Cella Manu- facturing Co. of St. Louis, but when he applied at tl. State Departmene in Washington for a passport he encoun- tered delay and he sailed without one. The steamer had not beén at sea two days when a passenger who heard La- hiv trying to square himself with the purser for having got aboard without a passport spread the report he was a Ger- man spy. Mr. Lahiv thought it- was meant for a joke, but it made him very unpopular with the officers of the ship who are not German. A couple of days later came a report of the outbreak in Dublin and another wag, convinced Mr. Lahiv was Irish, spread the report he was an Irish revolutionist. This helped a lot, too, when he finally got to Bordeaux. There the loca] officials had evidently seen him coming. He was treated with the utmost con- sideration and politeness and. given all the Uberty he desired within the Hmits of cell No. 7. He was taken out twice te stand qulssings—he calls them triale— ene before the commissary of police on the charge of being a German spy and the other by the English Consul about the Irish revolution theory. He mignat huve fared hard had it not been for F. C. Hulburt. a young St. Loutsan at- tached to the American Ambulance n ¥rance. Mr. Hulburt secured him an in- terpreter, and aided him greatly in clearing himself of the spy charge, and also got his samples of artificial limbs forwarded to Paris for him. On the way back thc ship's officers were very attentive and he never seemed able to get far out of the sight of one of them.

Walter McAuliffe, known as McAuliffe to baseball fans throughout the city, a delegate from Local 180, In- ternational Hod Carriers’ Union, put lots of punch into the preparedness pa- rade conference at the St. louis club last night. Red wanted to punch a doorkeeper who, upon noting that Rea had forgotten to brush the plaster from his shoes, neglectew to provide hineelf with a coilar and was displaying ‘glimpses of suspender, tried to bar his J Way into the clubhouse. “I'm here as a delegate and I'm going right in or somebody will know why,”’ asserted Red. Just then two members of the club came to the door to see what was the trouble and they escorted Red to the conference. He had been seated only a few moments when the Rev. John W. Day was asked to report if any ministers had agreed to march in the parade. Hod Carriers Will March. “IT haven't heard from any of tem, ald the minister, but I am going to march, if I have to march alone.” Here's a hodcarrier who will march with you,“ shouted Red, in a voice which was noted for its strength when he formerly acted as announcer at baseball games. George W. Brown. who presided at the meeting, asked Red how many hod carriers would march, and Red re- plied: “Well, there’s 187 boys in our loca!, and they will march or settle with mo, personally.“ Put down 187 hodcarriers for the pa- rade, said Mayor Kiel. I have a sus- picion they will all be in line.” Gen. E. J. Spencer, who will act as marshal of the parade, said that he in- tended to have the marchers form on Twelfth street and thoroughfares tc the east. The parade will start at Twelfth and Market and the route will be along Twelfth to Locust, Locust to the Lindell cutoff, along Lindell to Vandeventer. The reviewing stand will be in front of the St. Louis Club. Specific Numbers Promised, Promises of large numbers of march- ein eame from about 50 organizations. The turnvereins promised more than 2000, the Knights of Columbus 2500, the Young Men's Progressive Association £000, the Modern Woodmen of America 10%), the Spanish War Veterans 300, the St Louis Advertising League 300, the American Society of Civil Engineers BOO. thé Tenth Ward Improvement As- sotiation 900, the dyers and cleaners 500, the Merchant Tailors’ Association 30° and scores of organizations pledged large turnout without predicting ex- act numbers. It was announced that the Judges of the Court of Appeals and the Circuit Court will march at the head of the divis‘on from the St. Louis Bar Asso- ciation. ; An official of the Bell Telephone Co. said that 300 girl operators will march with 300 men. Owen Miller, president of the Fed- ‘eration of Musicians, said he was not 7 Speaking as a representative of organ- ized labor, but he belſleved many or- gxenizations. would have large numbers of mén in line. Maurice J. Cassidy, secretary of the Building Trades Council, said he would call a special meeting of the council and urge participation in the parade by | the unions connected with the council. The Boy Scouts will not parade, but will form a guard along the two miles of streets to be covered by the march- ers. Each organization will prepare a ban- ner. No automobiles will be allowed in the line. CHICAGO EXPECTS 150,000 IN PREPAREDNESS PARADE Line Will Be 30 Miles, It Is Estt- mated, and Require 12 Hours to Pass; to Be in Business Section. CHICAGO, May A. —Indications today were that at least 150,000 persons will be included in Chicago's preparedness parade, June 3, and the number may be much larger for many industries and organizations have not yet formed their marching divisions. According to Major-General E. C. Young, Chief Marshal, on the charge of arrangements for the demonstra- tion, the parade column will be at least 30 miles in length, and will take 12 hours to pass. The course of the march has been go arranged in the downtown sec- tion, however, that no individual wi trarch more than four hours. The route has been confined to the eenter of the business section so thaf windows in all ot the larger buildings tuay be utilized by spectators. DAY IN CONGRESS. WASHINGTON, May 24. SENATE.

Carranza will be sent Washington by special messenger, Spe- cial Agent Rodgers, at Mexico City, advised the State Department today. Rodgers gave no forecast of the con- tents of the communication. Previous reports.from Rodgers have described the attitude of Carranza officials as increas- ingly friendly toward the United States. A later dispatch from Special Agent Rodgers said the new Carranza note should reach Eliseo Arredondo, Mexican Ambassador-designate here, next Mon- day, indicating that the messengers had already left Mexico City. The message made no co. nent on the character of the note. Reports to both the State and War Departments further indicate plans of the Carranza Government to vigorously prosecute pursuit of hihuahua outlaw bands while the American forces remain comparatively quiescent. Closely following news of withdrawal from Mexico of the second American ex- pedition, sent from Boquillas, Tex., un- der Col. Sibley and Maj. Langhorne, in- formation reached the State Department that Gen. Obregon had ordered 30,000 troops to engage in the bandit hunt in Chihuahua and along the Beg Bend border. . a The 116 members of the Texas National Guard who failed to answer the sum- mons for duty on the border will be giv- en another opportunity: Because the new army reorganization bill now await- ing signature by the President repeals certain provisions of the existing militia law under which the men could be court- martialed, Secretary Baker has deter- mined to delay action until the new measure becomes a law. Its effect will be to muster them into the Federal service automatically and should they again fail to report for duty, they will be subject to courtmartial. The record of the Texas guardsmen responding to President Wilson's call for border duty was defended today by Rep- resentative Slayden of Texas.

MASEL SETILE HERESY QUESTION No Candidate May Be Ordained Before He Accepts Tenets of the Church. ATLANTIC, CITY, N. J., May .24.— The General Assembly of the Pres- tyterian Church of the United States of America today adopted without de- bate a report from the Committee on Bills and Overtures, warning the New York and all other presbyteries that the tenets of the church must be ac- cepted by candidates for the ministry before they should be ordained. This action, it is believed, ends further dis- cussion in the present assembly of the alleged heresy question in which the New York Presbytery and Union Theological Seminary are involved, charged with licensing ministers whose beliefs do not accord with the cectrinal standards of the church. The report of the committee said com- plaint was made that the New York Presbytery licensed candidates who could not affirm their belief in the es- sential doctrine of the word of God and the church’s standards, that Jesus Christ was born of the Virgin Mary. Question of Discipline. The New York Presbytery, on its side, contended it was discourteous and unchristian and subversive of proper discipline for one presbytery to assert that the ministers of another presby- tery were untrue to their ordination VOws. Both sides of the controversy and the committee were convinced that the continued agitation of the subject was bringing reproach upon the church and must be effectually stopped. The con- tending parties finally in conference formulated a paper which the commit- tee approved and presented to the as- sembly. The paper follows: ‘“‘Whereas, the records of the Presby- tery of New York show that on April 10, 1916, that preabytery licensed three candidates for the ministry who neither affirmed or denied the doctrine of the virgin birth. ‘‘Whereas, it is admitted that by the constitution of the church each presby- tery is the judge of qualifications of candidates for the ministry, but such presbytery in licensing these candidates should strictly observe the declarations of the confession of faith in doctrinal matters. ‘ “The General Assembly calls the at- tenttön of the presbyteries to the deliv- erance of the General Assembly of 1910, which is as follows: It is an essential doctrine of the word of God and our standards, that the Holy Spirit did so inspire, guide and move the writers of holy scripture as to keep them from error; that our Lord Jesus Christ was born of the Virgin Mary; that Christ offered up himself a sacri- fice to satisfy divine’ justice and thus reconcile us to God; that on the third day He arose from the dead with the same body with which He suffered and — — LLL LILLE — fe af with which also He ascended into FINDS SINN EM PRESIDENT GUILTY John MacNeil, Dublin University Professor, to Be Sentenced Soon. DUBLIN, via London, May 24.— John MacNeill, president of the Sinn Fein volunteers, has been Found guilty by a court martial of com- plicity in the Irish rebellion. His sentence will be promulgated within a day or two. MacNeill is a professor in the Na- tional University of Dublin. Son of Former British Field Marshal Sentenced to 3 Months LONDON, May 2.—Capt. James R. White, formerly of the First Gordon Highlanders and a son of the late Field Marshal Sir George White, the defender of Ladysmith, was sentenced today to three months imprisonment at Aberdare, Wales. He was convicted under the defense of the realm act of having at- tempted to induce coal miners to strike in order to compel the Government to show leniency toward leaders of the re- bellion in Ireland. ; After leaving the army, in which he won the distinguished service order for his services in the Boer War, Capt. White became a Socialist. In Ireland he took part in the riotous Larkin strike in Dublin in 1914. Later he joined the Sinn Fein society. He refused to rejoin the army. heaven and there sitteth at the right hand of His Father, making interces- sion; that our Lord Jesus showed His power and love by working mighty miracies. This working was not con- trary to nature but superior to it! Mandate Is Iasued. “Presbyteries are hereby enjoined not to license or ordain any candidate for the ministry whose views are not in ac- cordance with this deliverance of 1910. “This General Assembly renews its positive mandate with full expectation of loyal compliance by all our presbyteries: and directs that when a candidate ap- pears who is found to be not clear and positive on any one of the fundamentals of our faith, that his license be deferred until such time as in the judgment of the presbytery he has become 80.“ The absence of debate on the report came as a great surprise to hundreds of commissioners. The report was read by the Rev. J. Ross Stevenson of Prince- ton, N. J., the former moderator, chair- man of the Committee on Bills and Overtures. As he concluded a voice moved adoption of the report and an- other seconded, and when Moderator Marquis put the question a resounding “aye’’ boomed out. Not a dissenting vote was heard. Prayer was offered thanking God for the amicable conclusion of what threat- ened serious division in the church. “ACTOIDS” ACT ACTIVELY. “ACTOIDS” Cure Billousnessa.

Mrs. Anna Wilson, 61 years old, refuses to leave the county jail at Belleville, al- though the keeper has given her permis- sion to go. An indictment, which was returned after she had fled with $2000 worth of jewelry belonging to her em- ployer, Mrs. Louisa Robb of Cahokia, Inn., has been dismissed. Nevertheless, she insists on standing trial, and the jailer wonders what he can do with her. Mrs. Wilson was caught in St. Louis, after crossing the Mississippi River in a rowboat.

Winston Spencer Churchill, former First Lord of the Admiralty, who has been opposing the Government in the House of Commons since his return from the front, was the first speaker in the general debate. Mr. Churchill expressed regret that Mr. Asquith had not re- viewed the general strategic situation and said it was unreasonable for people to expect the war to turn substantially and decisively in favor of the allies. The contending armies were far too evenly matched at the present time to permit of such a change. The allies felt that they were stronger and had a preponderance of men, Mr. Churchill said, but against this was the central position of their opponents, their superior unity of their war direction and the advantage of being able to retain the initiative. The allies had larger re- Serves, actual and potential, than their enemies and it was in the use that was made of them that the hope of final vic- tory lay. Must Make Best Use of Men. The frequency of the eGrman and Austrian attacks on all parts of the front might be a sign of the méasure of ther strength, Mr. Churchill said, but it might also be a sign of the measure of their profound anxiety. If the Germans were beaten decisively they would undoubtedly be beaten by lack of men, and accordingly the best use must be made, of the men now being called to the army. Speaking in the light of his experi- ences at the front, Col. Churchill re- ferred to the British in France. He mentioned the salients which the British troops hold and added: “We should not continue to hold Naces of no vital importance in the line where our men are at a disad- vantage and suffer undue losses. There are three or four such places, and it is said the Garmans have or- ders not to rush us out, in order that they may continue to reap the benefit of our occupation of them. No re- proach will be made against the Gov- ernment if the line is readjusted.” Mr. Churchill urged reduction in the number of men retained for home service and also the use of the “re- serves of Africa and Asia.” He said African and Asiatic troops could be trained in Egypt “for next year's campaign.” a “Where Are 5,000,000 Men?” That does not correspond with the Premier’s description of our military efforts,” he continued. “The Prime Minister said the total military effort of the empire was 5,000,000 men. Where are they? Certainly they have not been in contact with the enemy. Our miltary efforts should be mea- sured by the number of enemy forces we are holding on our respective fronts. The 45 eGrman and Turkish divisions which we face would total 900,000 men all told and, therefore, the actual figthing force with which we are in contact is probably in ef- fective rifle and artillery strength. “If our total effort is 5,000,000 men It is evident after every conceivable deduction has been made that there is a large margin not yet usefully ap- plied to the prosecution of the war.” Mr. Churchill urged that every serv- iceable man should be put in to lengthen and strengthen the fighting line. He suggested that battalions be increased to 1200 men, in order to re- duce the proportion of men who in all battalions could not be classed in rifle strength. He also urged overhauling the army service corps and the royal army medical corps with a view to obtaining all able-bodied’ men for scivice in the trenches. Urges Use of OCavalrymen. Another suggestion made by Churchill was abolition of officers’ servants and grooms and careful con- sideration of cavalry regiments. He pointed out that there were 200,000 officers in the army with an equal number of servants and 60,000 grooms, an army in itself. nI addition there were great masses of cavairy which eculd be used if the Government would build formations from the men of these famous regiments. He be- lieved they could be organized into a force of the highest military quality. In moving the vote of credit for £200,000,000 (€$1,500,000,000) Premier Acquith commented that this was the eleventh vote since the Leginning of the war and the second for the cur- rent financial year. The total granted this year, he added, was £600,000 (800,000,000) making a grand total of £2,382,000,000 ($11,500,000,000). In proposing the vote of credit, Pre- mier Asquith laid before the House of Commons an account in some detail or the Government's recent financial operations. He took up the period between April 1 and May 320, saying the actual outlay during those 60 days was £241,000,000. The Premier added he could hold out no hope of any appreciable re- duction in expen@itures. Betimating that the £800,006,000 added would lest until the middle of the first week in August, the Premier said he moved this vote with the same confidence an he felt in moving the firet vote, but at this stage he would deal only with the financial position. The Premier said that expenditure of £241,000,000 between April 1 and 20—4 daily average of £4,820,000 ~—was the highest rate reached by Great Britain in any such period dur- ing the war. | “ACTOIDS” sive hig BLY. i LONDON, May 24.—The House of Com- ae Bess. — r „ „„ —— — — — Mir 2 Soe Neer ee f . i ER OEP Ain: — ee ia Pei sia — rr The Beal Goode for fhe Price No Matter What the Pl You Are Sure of Both Quality and Good Service I You Shop at Vandervoort’s —— * The Newest and a Best Tub Silks Tub Silks are in great demand now, and now is the time to select them, beeause our stock is replete with the very newest and best kinds of | washable Silks for shirts, shirtwaists, dresses, eto.

WORKS} Former Lieutenant in European Republic Thinks Plan Should Be Adopted in U. S. The advantages and disadvantages of | © the Swiss system of universal military training, which has been widely advo- cated as a pattern for an American citizen army, were discussed today with a Post-Dispatch reporter by Hans El- miger of 3673 South Broadway, former manager of the Concordia Turnverein, who served 10 years in the Swiss army and reached the rank of First Lieuten- ant in the artillery. Elmiger spoke in highest praise of the physical advantages of the system of training and declared that it was the greatest agency for the develop- ment of the youths of Switzerland into strong and useful manhood, He did believe, however, that the necessity of young men going away from their work several weeks each year for mili- tary training resulted to their econom- ical disadvantage, especially if they wer? wage earners. “IT have known them many times to lose their jobs,“ he said. It igs true that most employers keep places open for their men who go away for army service and a great many of them con- tinue to pay full wages for the period of absence, but others do not. The un- skilled laborers guffer more than oth- ers because their places are 80 easily filled.’’ How Swiss System Works. Elmiger has been away from Switzer- land 12 years and in that time, he said, the system has been changed consider-- ably. He said he was not thoroughly familiar with all e requirements of the present time. When he reached the age of compulsory military service at 20 he said he had to serve 10 weeks the first year. The next year or two about four weeks annual service was required. Aft- er that a man had to give up about two weeks each year for training until he reached the age of 50. Of course, if he showed special aptitude and was select- ed for schooling as an officer he had to give up more time. “It was the training for officers es- pecially,”’ Elmiger said, which inter- fcred with a young man’s regular occu- pation. If he was chosen for a Corporal or a Sergeantthe had no choice but to go and then he usually had to devote about 16 weeks a year to instruction and training. Not many employers could af- ford to keep positions open that long and it often happened that the young man would find himself out of work when hia training season ended. And when I was in Switzerland jobs were much harder to find than here.“ The problem of loss of employment is never very great, Elmiger said, after a young man passes his first year or two of army service except in the case of those who advance to the officers’ ranks. The age at which service must begin fs 20 and that is the year in which the longest time is required—at present 67 days for most branches of the army. It was pointed out by Elmiger that the young man is rarely settled at that age and suffers little from temporary loss of employment. As he grows older the length of service required is shortened to not more than two weeks and there is less interference’ with his occupation. „The strict training is an excellent thing for young men, Elminger said. “Tt develops them physically into strong men and it adds to their mental efficiency. They learn what obedience is and they learn to think. I have wished many times that some of the careless and thoughtless young men of this coun- try had to go through such a course of training. It would make better men out of them. It really adds, in most cases, to the qualifications of a man for any occupation he may undertake.” “Another advantage is that it interests young men in shooting as a sport. They organize rifle clubs all over the country and their regular Sunday diversion is target practice. The Government fur- nishes the rifles and ammunition. This gives Switzerland a nation of expert riflemen whose usefulness for national defense cannot be overestimated, I do not think that the Swiss system develops an aggressive militaristic spirit, but rather encourages sober thought on the part of the people. “The national guard system in this country is in no way an adequate substi- tute for the Swiss system. I feel that the advantages of the Swiss system so far outweigh its disadvantages that 1 would like to see it adopted in Amer- ica.” Exhibits at Architectural Club. The law students and professors of the Washington University Architectural department will be the guests of the Architectural Club tomorrow night. There will be an exhibition of the work of the students and the annual mem- bership in the Architectural Club will be awarded. Ratiroad to Distribute Government Book on Yellowstone Park. The Department of the Interior has just completed the publication of a book regarding Yellowstone Park which ts the firet of a series of books to be published exploiting Government parks. At the time Secretary Lane of the Interior Department announced the intention of | = the Government to bring the scenic fea- tures of the Government parks more prominently before the public, the North- ern Pacific Railway officials were among the first to promise their co- operation, and the rallroad has bought several thousand copies of the edition for distribution outside of the Govern- ment distribution. The book comprises 24 pages and many illustrations. In referring to the park one passage reads as follows: “This is the most widely celebrated of our na- tional parks. It is associated in the public mind with geysers only, having more than are found in all the other in| parts of the world combined. There tol never was a greater mistake, for were Ahere no geysers the Yellowstone, with ite glowing canyon, would render the reservation worthy of being called a na- tional park.” WOMEN’S WASH SUITS > 4.9: Six different styles Norfolk, plaited, belted and flare styles; materials, white cotton gabardine and tan beach eloth; 36 to 44, (Basement. ) „ ay fe 1 * 5 „ 4", * TAS Men's $1 Nightshirts, 650 Cambrio gad musl — med. notte ‘Sp us 18 plain and a fancy trim.

E. | L. Gardner. 500 ATTEND DINNER | Nine City Committeeemen Say They Will Carry Wards for | Lamm for Governor. A banquet of nearly 500 Republicans last night at the Planters Hotel, ey ranged ostensibly to promote the candi- dacy of Judge Henry Lamm for the Re- publican nomination for Governor, was converted in a Hughes and Nagel oy fair soon after the crowd was seated. The attendance principally was of members of the Lamm-for-Governor Club, State Senator A. E. L. Gardner of St. Louis County opened the way TUTTE a to link the Lamm candidacy with sup- port of Charles Nagel for the —.— tion for Vice President and Supreme Judge Charles E. Hughes for Presi- dent. A mention of Hughes and Nagel by Sena tor Gardner was loudly cheered. Nagel was the last speaker, and when { he arose thére was a demonstration. Doubt Over Course. Among some of the supporters Judge Lamm, there is a disposition to! look with doubt about the political ad- visability of permitting the Nagel boom to. start at a Lamm banquet, because of Nagel’s long connection with the An- heuser-Busch interests as attorney. Reports from the dry“ communities of the State have been that John E. Swanger, Lamm's leading opponent for the nomination, has been making much headway, and that his success has bee due to considerable extent to the sarah port given Lamm by Otto F. Stifel, St. Louls brewer. Some of the Lamm supporters believe that launching of a Nagel boom at a Lamm meeting will add strength to the Swanger movement in the dry country districts. They recall that when a boom was started a year ago for Cleveland A. Newton for the Republican nomination for governor, mu_n unfriendly comment Was made by country newspapers mere- ly because he was connected with the law firm of Nagel & Kirby, which rep- resented the Anheuser-Busch interests. when he mentioned the name of Hughes as the next president. of the United States.“ When the cheering for Hughes began calling the name of Nagel for vice-president. i Is Issue. Nagel declared preparedness to be the leading issue, but explained that, in his opinion, preparedness as an issue was much more than the appropriation for preparedness for war. To him, he said, it also meant industrial preparedness. the country would not stand up for a week Were it not for the war. Judge Lamm said he had consented to become a candidate for the nomina- tion for Governor when party leaders persuaded him that he could help the party and the State. He referred indi- rectly to the appearance of Swanger before members of the Republican City Committee and being ‘‘grilled’’ as to his views on matters of: liquor legiglation. He said such a proceeding was ‘‘humili- ating to a candidate.“ Nine city committeemen were present, and declared they could carry their wards for Judge Lamm for the nomina- tion.

GROCERS SELL AKE HOME IN ST, LOUIS Noted Orator, A Misseurtan by Birth, Asked to Be Transferred for Wife's Health. Bishop William A. Quayle, possibly the most noted pulpit orator of the Methodist Episcopal Church, will soon come to St. Louis to make his home. He lives in St. Paul, but a few days ago, at the general conference of the church, in Saratoga Springs, N. Y., he asked for an assignment farther South, because the severe winters in St. Paul have had an unfavorable effect on his wife's health. Yesterday, according to a dispatch, his transfer to St. Louis was announced. Since the death of Bishop Charles Smith, two years ago, there has been no resident Bishop of the Methodist church in St. Louis. The Bishops of the Methodist church do not have fixed geographical dioceses, as do those of t've body, and assign different ones of their own number, from year to year, to preside over different conferences. Bishop Quayle is 56 years old and is a native Missourian. He has been a Bishop since 1908, and he previously held important pastorates in Chicago, president of Baker University, Bald- win, Kan. He has lectured extensive- jy, Shakspeare being his favorite sec- ular theme, and has written several books, including a volume of poems. His recent address at the funeral of Bishop Luccock, in Union Methodist Church, St. Louis; was a striking piece of rhetoric.

Thomas Jefferson, the explorers Lewis and Clark, Abraham Lincoln and a host of others dreamed of the magnificent em- pire which American pluck and courage would .build on the Pacific North Coast, and set their hopes on the great steel highways which must conquer the mountain barriers to link the East and West forever in one great commonwealth. But never did their fondest dreams foreshadow how wonder- fully the railroad, elec’ “ically operated, ‘vould surmount the 9 vast ramparts of the R.uckies and give to mountain travel all the ease and much ot the speed of the level stretches. The electrification of “The St. Paul Road’’ between Harlowton, Mont.,and Avery, Idaho, over the Great Conti- nental Divide has forever overcome the great difficul- ties of mountain operation: Where once the steam loco- motive toiled and panted up the mountain side, assailed by cold and frustrated by snow, the giant electric locomotive, fed by the limitless energy of mountain streams, speeds up the grade, undaunted by cold and snow, hauling with ease the ail-steel ‘‘Olympian” and Columbian and heavily loaded freight trains over the roof of the continent. Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway Remember the travel supremacy of Ihe St. Paul when arranging your next trip to the Pacific North Coast. In the luxurious Olym- pian” or Columbian, smoothly riding behind the world’s most powerful locomotive, you enjoy a smokeless, cinderless journey for 440 miles through the beautiful scenery of the majestic Rockies and forested Bitter Roots, Booklet going full il particular éan be ae REMLEY below.

It was new. No great encyclopaedia had ever been published in such form. So, to acquaint the public with its beauty and its advantages, the publishers offered it at an especially low price, to early buyers. This price had soon to be raised, and the fact was widely advertised. But many still hesitated. —With this result: that nearly two-thirds of the purchasers of the Cambridge University issue have paid an average of over $30 per set more than if they had seized the first chance. —With a total loss of over one million dollars. Yet this was no added profit to the publishers. It was just lost, swallowed up. : Identically the’same thing is happening now! We believed there was a huge public which wanted the Encyclopaedia Britannica but could not afford to pay $166 or more per set for the Cambridge University issue. ; So we arranged with the publishers for a new issue of the same work, unab , in a smaller she declared. “Let me tell you that a form.

We have received to date more than 150,000 letters and inquiries regarding our offer of the new Handy Volume Issue. Of these it is probable that at least 25,000 people will eventually purchase it—at a higher price.

I know that my retirement will mako | no difference in its cardinal principles, that it will always fight for progress and reform, never tolerate injustice or corruption, always fight demagogues of all parties, never belong to any party, always oppose privileged classes and | public plunderers, never lack sympathy with the poor, always remain devoted to the public welfare, never be satisfied with merely printing news, always be drastically independent, never be afraid to attack wrong, whether by predatory plutocracy or predatory poverty. JOSEPH PULITZER. April 10, 1907. Alderman Barney L. Schwartz offers a con- vincing answer to the attack on the city by Fes- tus J. Wade for “milking” the public ytility cor- porations. Mr. Wade advanced the theory that St. Louis suffers on account of its policy of laying tax bur- dens on public utilities and its hartzh treatment of them. The Post-Dispatch answered this statement by showing that the public utilities of this city paid comparatively little into the city treasury and that cities which had compelled public utilities to pay over large percentages of their earnings and to reduce rates lead in growth and prosperity. The cheaper the rates for gas, electricity and transportation and the greater the benefits en- joyed by citizens from public utilities, the more attractive the city to residents and business men. This goes without saying. Alderman Schwartz emphasizes the “milking” of the public utilities by their owners as the heaviest burden laid upon them are the profitable contracts for electricity forced on the Union Elec- tric and the Unitéd Railways. The profits of these contracts, which absorb so much of the earnings of the corporations, are enjoyed by men who control them. Both the Union Electric and the United Railways pay half a million in ex- cess rake-offs to subsidiary corporations. Mr. Schwartz might have gone back of this and showed how the city, the public and the utility corporations were “milked” by franchise grab- bing and high financiering. The lame condition of . — of the brotherhood and the official organ of the brotherhood. Both those authorities defined the movement as one for increase of pay insteas of decrease in working hours, which was precise- ly the light in which the Post-Dispatch dis- cussed it. ‘= = * CLOSING THE DOOR OF PRAOR. Perhaps the most notable journalistic achieve- ment of the war, the Post-Dispatch interview with the German Chancellor, Dr. von Bethmann-Holl- weg, will be searched in vain for a word favora- ble to early peace. It bristles with reproach and defiance, supported by splendid self-confidence and to a large extent by facts. Instead of bidding for peace, the Chancellor may be said to declare war anew. Hope of negotiations is vain when belligerents find Aheir purposes unattained and yet persist in them. In adopting this policy, Germany is re- sponsive to the recent utterances of ita enemies. The determination of Great Britain and France, as voiced by Sir Edward Grey and Prime Minister Briand, to crush Prussian militarism, is met with a sneer and a reference to what the war maps show, There is a bigger war map, however, than that which he views with so much pride. When we come to examine the ocean highways of the world we find them as truly in possession of Great Brit- ain as Belgium or Northern France are in posses- sion of Germany. When we look for the German colonial empire established at great cost we see all 72 a *} : . ; 1 n 7 * 2 85 * 2 14 8 but one dependency in the hands of the enemy, and that closely beleaguered. The land forces of Germany occupy a few thousand square miles of enemy territory. The sea power of Great Britain holds over a million square miles of German ter- ritory in all quarters of the earth. A phase of the war as important as any of these cannot be exhibited on a war map. Doubtless the the United Railways is not due to city legislation, but to financial jugglery and robbery and to in- side “milking.” The hope of the city lies in wiping out the re- sults of financial jugglery, stopping the corporate “milking” and forcing the utilities to a solid basis of adequate service for fair rates.

A great many have written “and spoken on the subject, but not one, so far, has ‘hit upon the reason—the reason why young men do not join as they formerly did.

Do you remembr such ks as these: Lock at that line,” “Look at e step,“ “Here comes the St. Louis Grays,” “here are the Tredway Rifles,” “Hooray,” “these are the Branch Guards,“ “now come the Busch Zouaves,” “these are the Rainwater’ Rifles,“ “then come the St. Louis Blues,” ete., etc. All tion and spoliation must be wrung out of the utility corporations before satisfactory conditions are obtained. The story of Paris in next Suntay’ 8 Post-Dis- patch Magazine is a record of unpreparedness. May our Washington never have to eat rats, cats and dogs. — 1 — * i A TEST OF ADMINISTRATION AOTS. President W. C. Gordon of Marshall introduced the following patriotic allusion into his speech opening the bankers’ State convention in this city: As American citizens we should uphold the President and stand back of him for having safely guided the ship of state through the shoals: of disaster and we should withhold criticism of his acts until Feces events prove them unwise. This supplies a reliable seniors for apprais- ing administration policy. The test it suggests must, of course, be applied continuously. As time goes on acts may appear in new relation. It would be strange if judgment assisted by hind- sight did not reach a somewhat different estimate as to certain official decisions from that of judg- ment formed by unaided foresigtt. But resorting to the test today, what act ap- pears unwise? What one can be declared a blun- economic straits of its enemies have been exagger- ated by Great Britain, but evidence that the pinch is beginning to be felt is conclusive. Although a great country, we know by the cxperience of the Southern Confederacy that a blockade long con- tinued is more terrible than advancifg armies. Peace proposals are everywhere unwelcome at present, because the war maps are not sufficiently significant. They offset each other. The entente Powers evidently expect to change the cartography of the day by rolling back the Germanic invasions. It is plain enough from the Chancellor’s expres- sions that Germany has supreme confidence in its ability to withstand any assault that may be made upon its lines. Only one conclusion is possible, therefore, which is that the struggle for mastery must go on until maps, interests and opinions shall have undergone a change so radical that everybody will recognize and be constrained to act upon it. It is a fiery path which this opens to every bel- ligerent, but unless the war on both sides was a wicked and frivolous adventure, without aim and without excuse, it is best for all concerned that it should be fought out until, by the inexorable logic of force, those who today are a unit for courage shall be made unanimous for peace. = = = SS MRS.

Where are they today and why have they no -successors? Because the United States Govern- ment abolished and prohibited prize drills, In that @gentence you have the answer to the query, “What's the matter with the National Guards?” In the years named above there was no scarcity of members—there were members galore—each company had a waiting list of eligibles ready and anxious to join. In those days it was an honor to telong to one of the crack companies. Nvery year we would assemble in a different city and com- pete for first prize—we traveled all over our coun- try—saw all the principal cities—were entertained - royally at every step—and all this was instantly stopped by the abolishing of prize drills. The flimsy excuse was given at the time that it caused dissension among other companies that were not crack companies. I know that this was not #0, because each and every company was ‘striving hard to be the crack company the suc- ceeding year. The death of the National Guard Antes from the time that the Government abol- tahed prise drills—all the interest in the organisa- tion was killed, enthusiasm died out and the 1888 disbanded. ‘ EX-MEMBER BRANCH 4 GUARDS 18 YEARS. ‘*As You Idke tke 15 Outdoors.

Dr. Stewart's suggestion that the city should provide a dental clinic for the care of the teeth of children whose parents are not able to afford dental attention is in line with what the Post-Dis- patch has urged for years. The report of the Board of Education showing that, on an average, 50 pupils are given free dental care by the St. Louis University dental college each week proves the need of a municipal clinic. The work is so exacting that it should not be made an imposi- tion on any voluntary or private institution. Not long ago the Department of Hygiene found, using an average based upon an exdmination of the mouths of 846 children, that probably 73,500 pupils of the public schools suffer from defective teeth. This means that large numbers of children who cannot afford dental attention and for whom volunteer care is insufficient, must suffer the loss of teeth and the dangers of disease that accompany decayed teeth, unless the city supplies the need. Dr. Stewart’s suggestion should be acted upon at the earliest possible moment. = = r EIGHT-HOUR DEMAND DEFINED. . The statement has been made by the Post- Dispatch and other papers to the effect that the demand of the railroad men is not a genuine demand for the eight-hour day and the admitted benefits of the eight-hour system, but looks rather to a change in the unit of calculation bringing higher pay. This statement has been a cause of resentment. But this is the precise interpretation placed on the demand by Vice President Val Fitzpatrick of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen. In the January. number of the Railroad Trainman, print- ed in Cleveland, Mr. Fitzpatrick had an article in which the following appeared: By ths time this article appears in The Railroad Trainman, the four train service Brotherhoods. in all probability, will have launched a movement for an eight-hour basic work-day, There appears to be some difference of opinion as to what such a proposal involves, therefore it may be seasonable to say that there is quite a difference between an eight- hour work-day and an eight-hour basic work day. The first contemplates that eight hours shall be the maximum working time, and as « rule where the eight-hour workday obtains through contract relations between employer and em- ployes, it is the constant endeavor ta prevent working overtime except in cases of necessity. It appears that some of the men in the train service are of the opinion that this is the pro- posat-of the organizations. However, this is not the case. The second, the eight-hour basic workday, cortemplates that eight hours shall be the basics for a day's work and any time tn exces thereof shall de paid for us overtime; consequently under such a provision there is no limit to the hours worked. The latter sys- tem fa the one proposed by the train service “brotherhoods and is in accord the action taken by the delegates at the Bleventh Bien nial Convention of the Brotherhood of Railroad ere. thinks should be disseminated. Therefore, Mrs. Sanger does not like that law. Therefore, she broke it. Although she is not now breaking the law, she boasts of her law violation. It may not be a good law. It may be an unwise law and its enactment may have been a mistake. Perhaps it is the cause of evils greater than the evils it is intended to prevent. This is a matter of opinion, grounded on the best information ob- tainable. Mrs. Sanger’s opinion, grounded on information which she has had peculiar opportunities of ob- taining, is that it is not a good law and should be broken. Others think it is a good law. Others, not particularly concerned with the teachings of sects or the pronouncements of moralists, have honest doubts. . There is no means of knowing on which side the preponderance of opinion lies. It may be that more people think as Mrs. Sanger thinks than think the otner way. She has a right to persuade still mere to the same way of thinking, and with their help ts bring about the law’s repeal. That is the American way of getting rid of bad laws. But in the meantime there is the law. Because Mre. Sanger does not like it she breaks it. There are other laws. Others do not like them. They have as much right to break the laws they do not like as Mrs. Sanger has to break the law she does not like. What would happen with each person breaking the laws he does not like? = = = rw No Missourian has been President.

President Emeritus Eliot of Harvard urges the confirmation of the distinguished Harvard alum- nus whom President Lowell denounced. Mr. Eliot says in his letter to the Senate Judiciary Com- mittee that he has known Mr. Brandeis for 40 years, that he believes he understands his capaci- ties and character, that he thinks him a learned jurist and credits him with honesty, sincerity and a desire for justice, A point worthy of reflection i made by Dr. Eliot in the following: Under present circumstances I believe that the rejection by the Senate of his nomination to the Supreme Court would be a great mis- fortune for the whole legal profession, the court, all American business and the country. If Mr. Brandeis is not confirmed, the public impression will be that it is because of the very qualities that give him special eligibility for the court and not because of any doubtful features in his personal and professional record. The whole course of the investigation makes this probable. It the Senate believes that Mr. Brandeis’ opposi- tion to the interests disqualifies him for Justice, how. great a devotion to the interests must a nominee: show to be qualified, in the Senate view? 8 — 8 n It is well to remember in dealing with women }leeturers, that women, sqmehow, always have the getter Jane’s old-fashioned in her ways, Thinks eugenics is a craze Soon to pass away.

Along thie road, and thence northward through what was then French Flanders, many an English fugitive, in old days, tried to _yeach the North Sea after breaking out of the French prisons of Verdun or Givet. The story given here is Capt. Marryat’s tale of the escape of Peter Simple and his friend O’Brien.) aN a little boat expedition to attack : a battery at Cette, the French Med- iterranean port west of the mouth of the Rhone, Mr. Midshipman Simple and his friend O'Brien of His Majesty’s ship Diomede were taken by the French artillerists and sent to Cette as pris- oners. It had been Mr. Simple’s bad luck to be shot in the leg, but he soon blessed the affair, for he was nursed by Celeste, thé remarkably pretty daughter of a French officer. Even after his wound was _ quite healed, Mr. Simple was willing to re- main prisoner to such a jailer, but the French Government had no tenderness, and sent the two men off to the forti- fied town of Givet in the Ardennes. „Peter.“ said Mr. O’Brien, surveying the place, 1 see no reason why we should not eat our Christmas dinner in England.“ Peter locked at the enormous walls and towers and thought that the Irish- man was merely whistling to keep his courage up, but O’Brien began the very next day to gather what he needed. Bit ‘by bit he got maps, a rope, food, and other equipment, and one dark night he fixed sharp irons into the walls and | scaled them. f They swam the River Meuse and reached the Forest of Ardennes before the pursuers found their trail. At break of day, however, a party of gendarmes entered the wood. Simple and O’Brien at once climbed into a big tree which Was so covered with ivy that it made as good a covert as if it had been in full foliage. The gendarmes passed their hiding place and withdrew again, with the ex- ception of one man, who peered into the trees and at last spied Simple. Step- ping immediately under his hiding place, he pointed his musket with the order: “Descend!”’ Instantly O’Brien dropped bodily from his place higher up. He struck the gen- darme on the head and killed him. “What a fortune!“ suid ~’Brien, refer- ring, it is needless to say, not to the gendarme’s fortune. Peter While on the Stilts Sees Celeste at a Window. FEW hours later a French gen- A darme wag marching boldly on the road leading north, leading a young English prisoner by a rope. They went along the Meuse Valley, taking great care, however, to avoid such fortified towns as Dinant and Namur. At Namur they turned from the Meuse and continued straight north- ward to Louvain. It was, as O’Brien remarked, the most luxurious method of escape of which he ever had heard. They were fairly sup- plied with money and, therefore, lodged well every night and fared well all day. The only trouble that they had was that altogether too many women felt’ such compassion for the poor young prisoner that they tried everywhere to help him escape from his ferocious captor. Between Brussels and the fortified town of Malines they endeavored to use roads that should take them at some dis- tance past the latter place, as it was strongly held by French troops. It was their bad luck to meet a genuine gen- Garme, who insisted on helping O’Brien guard his prisoner and forced them to turn toward Malines in order to dis- pel his growing suspicion.. f They managed to give him the slip in the evening and to escape into thick wood; but they knew that the disguise of a gendarme was useless from that dubious situation and poking around among the bushes for a hiding place when they came upon the bodies of a man and a woman frozen to death. Be- side them lay immensely long stilts. “Luck again!“ said O’Brien, once more speaking purely from his own point of view. These evidently were stilt-walk- ers from the Landes, wandering through the land to beg. Now all we've got to CASTORIA For Infants and Children with Fownes quality in kinds of gloves, are 4emanding Fownes SILK — with reason. ‘ do is to practice a bit. We'll travel out of France on these stilts, depend upon It.“ Being sailors, they managed to master the things after a few days’ arduous practice in the wood. Then they took the road and entered Malines boldly, being passed by the guard at the gate after Peter, who was dressed in the woman's clothes, had permitted the sol- diers to kiss him all around. In the Grande Place they performed a queer dance and collected some pen- nies. Finally Peter approached the hotel, at whose windows the guests stood watching the performance. He nearly fell flat to the ground, for he found himeelf face to face with Celeste! Faithful Celeste Slips Peter a Purse of Gild. HE stared at him, looked startled aE and withdrew. Beg, Peter, beg! whispered O’Brien, observing ‘the dismay of the midshipman. Ask for money, or we are lost!“ The two watched the hotel apprehen- sively. Would Celeste, the daughter of a French officer, keep their secret? She reappeared at the window. Pe- ter stalked to it, holding out his head- dress. She thrust out her hand swift- ly, and the headdress sank under the weight of a heavy purse of gold. Then she fled. The English fugitives left Malines through the northern gate and passed unscathed and unsuspected along the road south of Antwerp through St. Nicholas, Hulse and Axel, and at last, with a joy that almost made them cheer, reached ‘l'erneuzen, on the Scheldt River, where they govt a boat to take them to Flushing. Two days afterward they were thrashing in the channel aboard a Dutch pilot boat. A cutter dove in sight. The Englishman’s eyes saw the wide red ensign. ‘The pilot steered for her, ran under her lee, and in a few minutes the fugitives, fugitives no long- er, stood on an English deck again un- der the English flag.

PORT clothes have become a neces- sary adjunct of every woman's wardrobe, whether she be of ath- letic activities or not. Their bright col- ors, extremely modish cut and line, and almost universal becomingness make them quite irrestible. Once upon a time the only bit of sporty apparel a woman owned was a sweater, and that was nothing very attractive, but now the sporting togs equal in number the eve- ning gowns, Last year the bright and glaring silk sweater jackets, which became so popu- lar, paved the way for bright colored top coats, which have laid off their staid and respectable appearance and leaped forth in attractive gayety. They are wondrously cut and fashioned and are of jersey cloth, homespun, novelty weaves of woolen and almost any ma- terial it would seem, except corduroy, which has become passe. Quite the loveliest things a bride could choose for a sport jacket, providing she is spending her summer at some fash- ionable resort, is the model shown. It is made of Roman stripe faille ribbon in a 10 or 11 inch -width, whose exquisite colorings cannot be duplicated in silk by the yard. A two-inch band of black on one edge and the same width band of dull blue or rose pink on the other show between them a groundwork of white with narrow lines of pale green, yellow, brown, deep rose or deep blue, and black. Two widths of the ribbon are sufficient for front and back, and one width for each of the sleeves. The collar and cuffs on this model are extremely smart, and easy to make, being only straight bands of silk, either white or in some color. This jacket is much more ele- gant than the silk sweater of last year, yet will not cost any more if made at home, and wil present a much more smart effect over any daytime frock from a plain linen to a dainty net. Such an attractive adjunct to the wardrobe would make a pleasing gift for the bride. — —ͤ ä — — — —— — — — PPP PRE — ge Are . ͤ ͤmũ ee Pm a —ͤ al 1 — i; 7˙¾ . — — — — — ay U 1 . * +4 VAAN Ws — or ——— 1848) was a brilliant British naval Captain as well as a brilliant novel- ist.

By Mrs. NCE upon a time the news trav- O eled through Fairyland that the oldest daughter of the Queen was to bé married. Everybody was talking about the beautiful wedding veil which the fairy Princess would wear on her bridal night. Everyone seemed bright, gay and hap- py except a tiny brown caterpillar, who crept around on the warm side of a stone. Everyone else was invited to the weu- ding except this tiny caterpillar, but he did not complain. Presently the moon came out and down the woodland path came the Queen with the Princess. But the bride was in tears. The wedding veil had beer. lost and there was no place to get another. In an hour the guests would assemble, the fireflies would gleam on every bush, the groom would come ri1- ing on his humming-bird steed, ‘but ths marriage could not go on without the veil—no fairy could be wedded unless a cobweb veil crowned her head. N the trouble and was #9 sorry for the dear, little bride. Suddenly a. idea came into his ugly head. Far down in a dark, damp, dirty hole was a beau- tiful cobweb spun by a spider whose threads were of silk. It was as thin as the mist of moonlight and gleamed as if sprinkled with diamond dust. It would be just the thing for the bride to wear —far more beautiful than the oné they had lost. So the caterpillar set out. It was not a bit pleasant work, but he kept at the task right on through the darkness and the dampness. His soft feet got wet but he did not turn back. At last h was in the hole and there before him stretched the web, gleaming in the light that crept into the hole in one long, trembling ray. Carefully he folded .. up, then placed it on his back and start- JW, the little caterpillar heard ai! ed out for the long walk back home. By the time he reached there, the guests were crowding into their seats, the firefiles were lighting up, the green circle on which the wedding was to be held and off on one side stood the bridegroom with his train of elves in gleaming purple and gold. But from the Queen’s room came sounds of weeping. The caterpilier hastened in and laid the bundle at the Princess’ feet. T HB. Queen took up the veil and it out—how it shimmered and flashed in the moonlight, a gossa- mer web of gleaming silvery silk, soft as the petal of a rose. “How beautifu:. exclaimed the Prin- oi delight, as she placed it on her “What reward can I giye you. kind — asked the grateful Queen.

What ‘s your dearest wish?’’ “I wish to be beautiful!’’ whispered the sad little thing, as he looked at his ugly, brown fur. I would love to have earth—wings bright as the shawl on your shoulders.”’ Outside the strains of the wedding march began to sound, but the Queen did not hurry. Tears stood in her eyes. “Oh, how glad I am that I can make you what you wish!“ she exclaimed, as she waved her tiny wand over the cater- pillar. Then the little brown, furry thing vanished and upward there floated on the air a beautiful creature, wafting himself lightly about on wings flashing in purple, gold and crimson.

HIS is the time of the year when more people are considering the question of hat car to buy than at any other time of the year. This community has its full share of people who will soon be driving their first car or a new car to replace the old one. Now, we know that we are going to sell Max- well Cars to a great many of these people—de- pending upon how many we are able to acquaint with the merits of the Maxwell. The generous value offered in. the car is so evident—its past record is so full of good perform- ance—owners 2 so well of it that when the buyer knows these things, he is eager to buy a Maxwell. In order to tell as many people as possible ‘about the merits of the Maxwell Car we are going to spend a lot of money in the next few weeks in this paper advertising Maxwell merits to those who do not know them. The reason—we want to sell as many Max- wells as possible this season. Our future allot- ments will depend upon how many Maxwells we sell now. You may know. that the Maxwell market is u buyer’s market, not a seller’s market—broadly speaking. The demand for Maxwells the ein over is greater than the supply. Touring Car $655 b aunt nie athedede ai aaaalal the factory according to the size of the dealer's business. We want to make a showing and be in a posi- tion to get a generous allotment of Maxwells hereafter. Because.the more Maxwells are sold in any community, the greater is the future demand. We realize the opportunity to do an ever-increasing Maxwell business. 3 This is only the first of the several messages: we are going to rint—a few days apart—concern- | ing the Maxwell Car. But we don’t expect to be able to adequately present Maxwell merits in printed words alone. EA you will find it decidedly to your advantage to find out all you can about the Maxwell before you place your order. | Come in and talk it over:with us and let us. demonstrate the car to you. Then, don’t take our word alone, but ask those who now own Maxwells. Get “posted” about the Maxwell and you will realize more satisfaction and get more value re- ceived” for your motor car money than ever before.

Sporting Editor of the Post- FTER following for three desperate weeks in the stormy wake of the Fielder Jones championship entry, sometimes known as the Browns, pnyone will cheerfully turn over to George, or td a clairvoyant, the task of predicting the team’s future. There are almost as many IFS in connection with the club’s develop- ment at the present time, as there were at the outset of the season.

The events on the first day will be for the junior crews, with the winners to ualify for the senior races the following ay. There will be events for singles, doubles, fours, eights and barges, Presi- dent Schaab announced.

ANDERSON DEFEAT TOUGH JIM HANLON Duquoin Fighter Gains pi Over Denverite in 8 Rounds, All Fighting. OUTDOOR BOUTS ASSURED Future City A. C. Announces It Has Obtained Lease on the Motordrome. By Harry S. Sharpe. r.eferee for the Future City Athletir Club and the Post-Dispatch’s Boxing Authority. , Bobby Anderson, the Duquoin (IL) lightweight boxer, placed another vic- tory to his credit by defeating Jimmy Hanlon of Denver, Colo., in a hard- fought eight-round bout at the Future City Athletic Club last night, before a fair attendance of spectators. There was not much science indulged im by either boxer, but there was much hard slugging, and the willingness and courage displayed by the contestants was liberally applauded.

ANN TY GRAFT. | He's In Again! Old Probono. Sporting Editor Post-Dispatch: worst trouble with our ball teams ‘is that they don’t win enough games. Why not employ the United Railways attor- neys to help them out? The remedy might lie in a habeas corpus action. Now, if we could only habeas the cor- 8 of Walter Johnson and Ty Cobb Fielder Jones and the whole Bos- — American and New York Nationa) teams we might have a better show. Or, perhaps we should get a few in- junctions. I should like to see Tris Speaker and Gavvy Cravath efjoined from ever hitting at a pitched ball in St. Louis. At least we could mandamus Jimmy Austin, so that he would never dare to boot another chance, and Miller Huggins, so that he would never make another shift in the line-up without a scirefacias or a certiorari or something of ones sort from the Supreme Court. lawyers certainly could tie things up so that nobody could win a nnant until the season was over, and f nobody won you couldn't say the St. Louis teams lost.

No More Worry for Hug. Sporting Editor Post-Dispatch. My pride and love for St. Louts be- hooves me to offer a few suggestions to the management of the Cardinals ere we find ourselves on the level with Cincinnati. Shift Betzel to third, Hornsby to second. Hither 57 et Cruise back or put Smith in dey bt 2 so that the E. Z. flies that get by him while he is doing a sun dance will not be home runs, n the batting order thus- Mi Betzel escher, Hornsby, Snyder, iller, Wilson, Corhan, Smith, pitch- rit there is a minor league team that will accept Butler, wish him on them. The idea of carryin a .200 hit- ter as a pincher is absurd. Take uggins’ name off the list as his da aye as a big league player are over. There are a lot of live ones panging around loose that would fit and add about 20 per cent more to the team’s efficiency. Betzel is a finished third baseman, and Horns- by’s size and ground- -covering abili- tles would make him a star second- sacker. He has lost his pep since playing third. It is needless to enumerate why Smith should have a fence behind him. Suffice it to say that there have been more home runs to center field already this year than there has been the whole of any other year, this, too, in the face of better Roskes' than we have had since =e oskey’s regime. Cobb’s and Craw- ford’s wonderful nftting would be wasted were the pitchers to follow nem at bat.

A decline of some 6 points in Reading shares occurred on the basis of very heavy trading, It brought the stock to a price 7 points below the high level of the week, which in turn marked a rise of 20% points from last ae lowest. In other railway s , today’ net declines were com tive y slig 8 During the early trading there were numerous further advances. Tow the close there was much irregularity, with some recoveries. “As reviewed by the Iron Age, the steel market has again been inf uenced by large orders for purposes of munition manufacture, the Steel Corporation hav- ing received the largest contract for shell steel thus far let by the British Govern- ment. to come in at current prices. “The Government’s report of. the past week’s conditions in th crop belt empha- sized today the impression of a greatly retarded season. he prolonged spell of cool and wet weather of which every- one has been complaining in the East seems to have prevailed’ pretty much throughout the entire country. We shall presently begin to see more clearly just how the total wheat harvest is likely to be affected. Since crop news from foreign produc- ing countries has also, as a rule, been considerably less favorable than a year ago, there is at least the chance of in- teresting developments, tater on, in the whole world’s grain trade. Thus far in the European war the most familiar and most troublesome incident of such wide- ly extended conflicts—actual shortage of breadstuffs—has at no time confronted the belligerents.

St. Louis Chicago ee Wheat displayed a bullish tone in the early speculation on the Merchants’ Ex- change today on Hessian fly damage reports from Kansas. The market ad- vanced easily on light buying, as the technical position of all options had been materially improved in the liquida- tion and 10c break of the last 10 days. The Liverpool cable said:. Wheat was steady today on strength in Winnepeg and Buenos Aires; cargo market irregu- lar, winters unchanged. Manitobas 6d dearer and Plates and Australians steadily held. There is an improved de- mand, although slight and Continental demand is d, with expectations of continued liberal purchases from this source a8 supplies are light.

Snow says: “Yesterday 1 ventured the opinion that the Kansas State report of 108,000,000 bu pros- pect for Wheat was probably correct at the time the data was gathered, but by no means ney represents the situation because of further losses in the past four days. The detailed re- pert received this morning shows; that the State officials recognize the same thing, as it says: “*While it may appear outside the rovince of this report to refer to uture possibilities, it seems advis- able to note the apprehension ex- pressed by growers as to the out- come of infested wheat that _ > already been rendered worthless the fly.

In Nebraska the outlook is about the best in the West. In the East, Pennsylvania may exceed last yer yield, but the other states will e below the average. In the spring wheat region wheat seeding about reached the end and some of the farmers are turning to oats, of which there will likely be . * rge increased acreage in the Dako nd Minnesota. The loss of a acre- age in North Dakota is about 20 per cent less in the other states, with the entire Northwest about 12 per cent under last year. Oats seeding is fin- ished in the central states. Corn planting is forward for this time of the year, and the backwardness has been overcome by generally fair weather in the central states.” ussell’s New York News wired: “The International Institute of Agri- culture at Rome reports that the Hungarian crops, some time ago con- sidered favorable, are short in acre- age and have suffered considerably from severe weather.
