At the Elks’ Club there was a mammoth American flag suspended over the main entrance and falgs showing from every window. The Shoe and Leather Club had the lawn roped off to keep out the crowd, and 500 small flags were stuck in the grass plot, while flags were shown from all windows. Directly across the street is the Academic Department of St. Louis University, at which there was a flag in every window.

CASHIER ROBBED OF $759 BY TWO MEN ON STREE Pursues Fugitive, Who Is Caught in Shed Where Money Is Found. J. H. Shipper, assistant cashier of the Bianton Manufacturing Co., 113 Spruce Street, was attacked by two men on Second street, between Clark avenue and Spruce street, shortly before noon today, and robbed of a wallet contain- ing $759, which he had just drawn from the Central National Bank for the com- peny payroll. The man holding the wallet ran into an alleyway from Clark avenue, between Third and Fourth streets. As the man entered the alley, with Shipper in pur- suit, J. H. Epperson of Fort Smith, Ark., was standing at the Fourth street end of the alley. He started to head off the fleeing robber and the man ran into a shed. Epperson stood guard at one end of the alley and Shipper at the other end until police arrived. The robber was arrested in the shed. The wallet con- taining the money and a revolver were found in the shed. At police headquarters the prisoner was identified as Abe Goldfeder, 19 years old, who had been arrested at 2:35 a. m., Feb. 6,-1913, after robbing the jewelry store of F. Dienftbier, 320 North Sixth street. A stolen watch was found ir. his possession. He secured bond and on March 13, 1913, was arrested for rob- bing the Bond tailoring shop, 1624 Olive street. A panel had been cut from a rear door. Goldfelder was sent to the reformatory at Boonville, Mo., and re- leased on parole after*three months. Shipper told the police he recalled hav- ing seen Goldfeder in the bank and that Goldfeder and the young man who escaped must have followed him from the bank. ee ee eee PRESIDENT TALKS BY PHONE TO DEMOCRATS AT THE JEFFERSON Private Wire Between Here and White House Maintained at Cost of $210 a Day.

CHICAGO, June -3.—rrogressive party leaders, after conferring today, declared their intention of using every influence at their command to induce the Repub- lican national convention to nominate Theodore Roosevelt for President. If they fail to make Roosevelt the Repub- to consider the qualifications of other candidates, but they will decline to discuss other names until it is certain that Roosevelt cannot win the Repub- nical convention indorsement. Numer- ous informal conferences between Pro- gressive and Republican groups have already been held. and’ others are scheduled during the next few days. Republican organization leaders ap- parently are doing nothing to offend the friends of Roosevelt in the pre- liminary maneuvers. They are willing, it is said, to let the Progressives dictate the party platform and name the can- didate for’ Vice President, but they are vigorously opposed to nominating Roosevelt for President. They hope to select a man that Roose- velt and his friends will support on a platform of Americanism and prepared- ness. They profess to believe that Roosevelt will not run as a third party candidate. George W. Perkins, chair- man of the Executive Committee of the Progressive party, said: “There have been a number of con- ferences between the Repuklican and Progressive leaders, but nothing defi- nitely has been accomplished. We are for Roosevelt to the end, and insist he should be nominated. We are willing t» meet the, Republicans half way in the interest of harmony.

BERLIN, June 3.—(By wireless from a staff correspondent of the Associated Press, via Sayville, N. Y.)—Thé first naval battle on & grand scale during the present war has been attended by re- sults which, according to the information received here, are highly satisfactory to the Germans, not only in respect of the comparative losses of the two fleets, but in the fact that the Germans main- tained the field after the battle. This is shown, German commenta- tors assert, by the rescue of British survivors. | The full German high sea fleet was engaged under personal command of Vice Admiral Scheer, the energetic German commander. who... sueceeded Admiral von Pohl. The British fleet engaged is now estimated at approxi- mately twice as strong in guns and ships as that under Admiral Scheer. Separate Engagements at Night. Detailed reports have not yet *been received, but the main engagement ap- parently occurred about 125 miles south- west of the southern extremity of Nor- way and 150 miles off the Danish coast. The battle was divided into two sec-' tions. The day engagement began at about 4 o'clock in the afternoon and continued until darkness or about 9 o’clock. This was followed by a series of separate engagements throughout the night. The exact ranges and course of the day fight have not been ascertained. It is assumed the ranges of the day en- gagement were not extreme, possibly at a distance of about eight miles, as the weather was hazy. The German torpedo boats and de- stroyers were more effective than the British, accounting to a considerable extent ‘for the successes for the Ger- mans against a superior force. It is understood the Queen Mary and the indefatigable were both sunk in the day battle. It has not been learned when the other ~ritish ships went down. All the German warships except those mentioned in the official report reached Wilhelmshaven safely. Thus far noth- ing has been reported regarding the extent to which any of these vessels were damaged. A fuller report from Admiral Scheer is expected soon. Westfalen Sinks Six Torpedo Hoats. {it is stated at the Admiralty that at least 34 British capital ships were ¢n- gaged and the British torpedo flotillas were severely handled. The battleship Westphalen alone sank six torpedo boats dufing the night encounters. German personnel and equipment stood the test brilliantly and the damage suffered by the German fleet is small in comparison, with the British losses. The battleship Pommern, which was sunk, was commanded by Capt Boelken. Berlin is decorated with flags and the achievement of the German fleet has aroused the greatest enthusiasm There was a remarkaole demonstration the the Reithstag when Rear Admiral Hebbinghaus, former naval attache to the German embassy at Washington, an- nounced the result of the battle. “Supplementing the official report of the Admiralty,’’ says the Overseas News Agency. “it is stated by a conrpetent authority in ‘the North Sea battle, the Germans had in action the high sea fleet, with dreadnoughts and older bat- tleships, battle cruisers and also light sea forces, including torpedo boat and submarine flotillas. The Germans faced the greater part of the modern British navy. “The German reconnoitering forces were commanded by Rear Admiral Rip- per. These forces first entered into ecmbat with the enemy's battle cruisers and light cruisers, at about 5 m wm. Later the main forces on both sides took part. During the day battle German torpedo boats several times entered into action successfully. one of them three times. The fight kept on until 9 elo in the evening. Five Terpedo Beats Unreported. “During the night both sides made violerft attacks with torpedo bouts and cruisers, in which there Were further Rritish losses. The leading German ship annihilated six medern British de- strovrers. bravery shown by the British during the fight, which lasted almost without interruption for 12 hours. H. M. 5S. Frauenlob must be definitely considered lost. Apparently she sank during the night in one of the engagements. Five smnaller torpedo boats have not re- turned, but a large part of the men have been rescued. “Although the weather was unfavor- able for aerial reconnoitering during all the time of the engagement, naval air- ships and aeroplanes contributed consid- erably to the German sea forces by }reconnoitering and by the speed with which they acted.” PRESIDENT SIGNS ARMY BILL, FIRST BIG DEFENSE MEASURE Had Studied Bill Carefully for More Than a Week—Pen Taken as a Souvenir. WASHINGTON, June 3.—President Wilson today signed the army reorgani- zation bill, first of the important pre- paredness measures pa by Congress during the present session. The Presi- dent has been studying the bill careful- ly for more than a greek. He used a pen belonging to Senator Smith of South Carolina, who desired it for a souvenir. An analysis of the bill by Chairman Chamberlain of the Senate Military Committee puts the peace strength of the army under the law at 211,000 officers and men, including 25,000 staff troops, Philippine scouts and unassigned re- cruits and the war strength at 234,500 of- ficers and combatant troops with. which staff taroops, scouts, etc., would bring the total aggregate maximum of the reg- ular army to 261,500. As reorganized. the national guard would number 457,00¢ making a grand total available war strength of 718,500. Other important features include an appropriation of $20,000,000 for a Govern- ment nitrate manufacturing plant, es- tablishment of military training camps for volunteer citizens and creation of several boards to investigate questions of preparedness. Authority is given the Government to seize and operate private® owned muni- tion plants in war time. Regular army, enlistment is fixed at seven years, four of which may be spent in reserve and at no time after five yeara when the minimum is to be obtained, is the peace strength to go under 160, 9,000.

Brea eyes » HARDEN ‘SPEAKING FOR WILSON. The most interesting and striking feature of Sunday’s Post-Dispatch is the complete text of Maximilian Harden’s extraordinary. indictment of ‘| the~present war, in which he jundertakes to pre- Sent what he conceives to be the American view. His article is headed: “If I Were Wilson.” This clear-seeing and broad-minded German ed- itor fully vindicates President Wilson’s course on all points during the war, especially with regard to the submarine question. He has succeeded, in an amazing way, in putting himself in the place of the chief executive of the greatest of the neu- tral nations. And not the least significart thing about bis message to the German people and the world is the fact that so outspoken and demo- cratic a statement was permitted to see the light of publicity in‘Germany. This is the first time it has appeared, in its complete form, in the United States. One of Harden’s conclusions, shared in by many statesmen and thinkers, is to the effect that, after |jthis war, “no staté, no class, no’man or woman, b . will be as they were before, but constitutions, laws and prejudices and scruples will lie prone beforé the whirlwind like reeds in a pool.” He does not hesitate to prophesy that Europe will! see {a revolution “beside which the revolutions of 1789 and 1793 might seem child’s play.” But out of all this he believes that a rejuvenated humanity, with militarism and other giant evils abolished, will rise from the chaos. There is vision, there is poetry, there is states- manship, there is a note of high hope and on in this splendid utterance of Germany's forentdst journalist. - a > i i coldly on account of his Arctic failure. \_=_— Orry. PLANNING CONFERENCE. The national conference on city planning will be held in Cleveland, beginning next Monday, June 5. For three days the delegates embracing men of the cities who through study and experi- ence can speak with authority will discuss prob- lems of city growth. Among the subjects for discussion are the ef- fect of the increasing use of the automobile in city planning; the reserving of sections of the city for distinctive purposes, the subdividing of land and other vital municipal questions. The growth of St. Louis within the present gen- eration with the increase of demands for public necessities, convenience and comforts, for rapid transit, park and recreation grounds, streets ane boulevards arouses in St. Louisans a deep inter-' est in the many phases of municipal development.

In the battle of the Skager Rak it has taken its first serious step in the only strategy, by which it will ever make its position more tolerable on the water. That is by meeting the armed naval ferces of the enemy and seeking their destruc- tion. The close of the engagement with the Ger- man ships seeking the safety of home ports did not fulfill the formula of a great sea victory. The depression prevailing in England, however, prob- ably affords an accurate guide for appraising the advantages to the two sides. The full extent of the German losses are not known, but the facts known indicate that they are much below the British™losses. A control of the seas unparalleled in modern times has been exercised by one Power. Its ships might have sailed not only the channel with brooms at their masthead, as the ships of the old Dutch Admirals used to do, but the most dis- tant waters of the globe. It has sought to dictate the sort of vessels with which neutrals thousands of miles away from its own capital might trade with one another. At least it declared that we might not trade with South America in vessels purchased from among interned shipping in our own ports. ‘It has asserted a right to regulate the maritime affairs of all civilization. It has even disregarded the immunities of private neutral communication on the high seas and stopped and opened neutral mailbags in transit: to nonbelligerent territories and peoples. This is the Power which, in its first stand-up battle with its adversary on a large scale, suf- fers heavy naval losses. = = ™ There will be hot time in several oid Amer- ican towns ff any more American flags are burned. WILL 1016 BB ANOTHER 16807 In 1880 the Republican national convention was held in Chicago. It had a third term candidate in the person of Ulysses 8. Grant, who, although he had never commanded a regiment of Rough Riders and was somewhat reticent about his military achieve- ments, was nevertheless not without fame as a soldier. It had another popular candidate in the person of James G. Blaine, who would have been nomi- nated four years before except for an untoward combination of circumstances. much in 19167 Among the delegates from Ohio was James A. Garfield, then recently elected a Senator in the Congress of the United States. The convention began in a deadlock of the Grant and Blaine forces. In the earlier balloting one vote was cast for James A. Garfield, and on the thirty-sixth ballot Garfield was nominated, although not a single Garfield delegate had been elected to the convention. The stage is set for a similar performance in Chicago in 1916. . It is not impossible that a dark horse candidate may be nominated. It is not al- together impossible that that dark horse candi- date may be the Senator from Ohio who will pre- side over the deliberations of the convention. It is true that the situation this year does not quite paraliel the situation in 1880, owing to the attitude of Charies B. Hughes, who could be nom- inated without a real contest if he were actively a candidate. That complicates matters. Another slemens-ohunrastainsr.a.nuaidedbatheannesa) The scientific world will not treat Shackleton better that Hughes would not take the ‘sseideinn’ unless the Roosevelt party acquiesced. The con- dition that the Justice is said to have imposed, his disinclination to be satisfied merely with aj Republican nomination, give Roosevelt a_ veto power that may easily eliminate Hughes from the contest, even if it does not benefit Roosevelt. Out of such a situation anything might come. and if Senator Harding is another Garfield he has a chance that comes only once in a generation. Al- though this convention is a body of hand-picked delegates controlled in the main by the old guard, it could easily be made responsive to the right kind of leadership on the floor of the convention. Garfield made his nomination for himself in 1880 after*he took up the gavel. Can Harding do as eee MOENTMANN CASE AND LAWYERS. A letter from a lawy@r, commenting on a recent editorial in the Post-Dispatch on the Moentmann case, shows that opposition to a Mis- sourl compensation law may bé based on that case, the opponents insisting that, under some state compensation laws, Marie Moentmayn would have been treated very illiberally. As the Post-Dispatch has pointed out, the Moentmann case was an extraordinary one, that cennot be used as a preeedent in any fight against a just compensation law. It was one case in a thousand, the other 999 of which may be classed ase doubtful or unsatisfactory, from the injured worker’s standpoint. It was given unusual pub- licity. There was no possible doubt as to respon- sibility. There were the elements of youth, sex helplessness and need of the injured person. Pub- lic opinion was aroused, and the defendants felt that the only wise step was to make a prompt and handsome settlement. It has been a notorious fact that, in very many cases of injury to workmen, no one has been ben- efited by litigation except the lawyers. Meritori- ous cases have been appealed, time after time, until the resources and hopes of the injured work- er were exhausted. Not even doctors’ or hospital expenses have been paid. It is true that, in some states, existing compen- sation laws are tnadequate and unfair. The Bar Association is fully aware of this, and the Amer- ican Association for Labor Legislation is working for the improvement of these laws. It has issued a pamphlet comparing the various compensation laws, section by section, and suggesting a model law. It is quite possible, with all the information at hand, to draw up and enact for Missouri a just and adequate law. And the only objectors to such a law will be the few professionals who have been reaping a fat harvest from the misfortunes of the }. workers, under the hit and miss litigation sys- tem. The great advantage of a compensation law is assurance of prompt relief which is rarely ex- perienced without it. Under the litigation system the principal factors are uncertainty and long de- lay. Le, A. - i i se WAR TIME ELECTION IN IRELAND. An Irish Parliament is to be set up at once in Dublin, is a London report. As a Parliament cannot be set up without a popular expression, Ireland will accordingly be the first country among the belligerent peoples’ to hold an election since the opening of the war. What results can be expected from an elec- torate swayed by a divided war sentiment? How wise will be the choice of men to restore self- government to the island after the lapse of 118 years? What effect will the uprising and particu- larly the wholesale executions of Irish patriots have on the vote? What provision will be made for enabling the tens of thousands of Irish young men now serving in the trenches to participate in the poll? An honest expression of the judgment and de sires of the Irish people will be hoped for, though it must be admitted that the election will be surrounded by peculiar difficulties. = = * ee HIGHT-HOUR CONFERENOE IS PUBLIC. The conference at New York between the repre- sentatives of 250 railroad systems with a quarter of a million miles of track and of 350,000 conduc- tors, trainmen, engineers and firemen will take place in public. It is announced that the press will be admitted to the conference with opportu- nity to make full reports of the proceedings and discussions. Questions of the importance of those entrusted to the conference should not be decided in secrecy. If no prior adjustment on such a acale has been attempted in public, no prior industrial dispute has affected so vitally and directly the interests of the people. A strike as a result of this dispute would have no consequences for employers and employes as disastroug as those for the public. Those whom the roads serve are entitled to have their repre- sentatives present at the sessions. They will be acquainted with the merits of the dispute and as- sisted to conclusions as to the justice of the deci- sion reached. . A preliminary report is to the effect that both the companies and the men are solicitous to avoid a strike. This is gratifying. The conference be- gins in the proper spirit. = = * —_— GRAND JURY'S BECOMMENDATIONS. The recommendations for public betterments submitted by the April grand jury touch on illegally conducted dance halis, sale of liquor to minors and carrying of concealed weapons, all matters . which a decided improvement is possible. A farm home in delightful rural surroundings having provided for juvenjle delinquents, the jury urges the duty of carrying out a similar plan for the workhouse’s adult delinquents. This is a change to which earnest thought should be de- voted by St. Louisans in coming months. An inquiry into the charge that Sheriff's of- fice fees for serving summonses include much graft is recommended and a more effective sys- tem of certification as a safeguard in the future. The complete eradication of every vestige of the fee system of compensating officials is ap- proved as a- permanent safeguard. This is a part of the grand jury’s report. which should not be forgotten when the - Legislature mects. The abolition of the fee system is not ‘to be accomplished at once.

T’S in a foreign country, nigh the city of Verdun, Where patriot and tyrant lie in trenches with their gun. I am struck down in youthful prime, for serving Erin’s foe, Far, far away from Erin dear, Oushlano. and from Sweet Oh, many a pleasant day I spent within my native town, When roving by the Arra’s side or on the mountain brown, When I think upon those pleasant days my tears be- gin to flow— I wish I now were once again with Sweet Oushlano. But cruel fate denies the boon, and here I wounded lie; : Far, far away from kith and kindred, I lonely here must die. I served my country’s tyrants against a patriot foe. Which leaves me here thus pining now, far, far from Cushlano. How sad and lonely do I feel at the thought of days gone by, And that dear spot where once I roved, a gay, light- hearted boy; Sweet visions haunt my troubled brain, of days long long £0, And friends that I once fondly loved within sweet Cushlano. Oh, Holy Virgin Mary, what is it sure I see?

The reason given for revoking the license was that detectives had arrested a man and a woman in the saloon and had reported it was disorderly. Beaird yesterday told a reporter that the swearing out Of warrants for Fritz and his associates was in retaliation for the administration's refusal to permit Beaird and Meeker to run a cabaret in their saloon. He said the revoking of the saloon license was prompted by friends and supporters of Fritz. “They pinned me right down where I couldn't do anything, and I decided to fight back,”’ said Beaird. ‘Everybody else could run wide open. I wanted to have a high-class cabaret, but they wouldn't let me do it. ' “Mv saloon has been closed on most ridiculous of pretenses. to open up again, or I'll rip the plank- ing out of this town.

Organized Business Needed in Time of Peace Just as in War E shall need organized business in time of W peace just as in time of war. Our duty is to encourage it, but also to see that its activities are for the benefit of the whole country. The Government should provide against excessive profit taking in time of war; and it can only do this as a sequence to reasonable encourage- ment of the many private plants which in the event of war could be trusted to do public business. These plants, through some such system as the annual education orders above referred to, could be made ready for efficient munitions work in time of war. The Government encouragement could also be used to secure as one of its features those things for labor which it is most necessary to secure—proper working and living conditions and provisions for insurance, compensation against sickness, accident and old age. Not one step has been taken by Congress to help secure these industrial conditions. Not one step has been taken to secure the nationalization of in- dustry in time of war. The plan advocated con- sists of (a) a survey of the producing industries of the country; (b) the development and practical working out in time of peace of plans for minimum annual educational orders, ‘and (c) the enrollment in time of peace of skilled labor. This is the plan which was initiated by the representatives of the national engineering societies on the Civilian Con- sulting Board, and it is at present actually being carried out by the 30,000 members of those, bodies. But this plan is being emasculated by the adminis- tration and Congress. Those patriotic and thoroughly practical men, the engineers, working under the plan of the (ivilian Consulting Board, have undertaken this work. But their efforts are be nullified by the pacifists in Washington; for the Chamberlain bill, in providing for these educational orders, stipulates that they shall only be issued in timie of war or when war is imminent. This makes nonsense of the whole effort, and is the same kind of “‘prepared- ness” which would miraculously produce eguip- ment for the million men who, we are told, will “enlisi between sunrise and sunset” on the day that war is declared. fuch actions are not merely folly. nation’s vital needs. | Transportation, and the movement of troops. igjip time thimetnoral have been closely cennected witn each other; and they lie at the base of 4h. , They represent criminal trifling with the - correct solution of military problems. The: first step of the Romans when they extended the terri- tory of their state was to build good roads. So clearly did the Romans recognize the importance of rapid transportation that. they built highways which today are still the marvels of history. Some roadways in Italy built 2000 years ago of massive blocks of granite for the transportation of Roman legions are in service still. The phenomenal German military efficiency ps the present war has been due almost as much to the perfection of their transportation system—the railway network—as to the excellence of the purely military organization and training, and, of course, industrial preparedness lay at the base of all. Mobility is a prime requisite for any army. Owing to the vast size of the United States and the great distances between which our army ma&y be used, transportation is for us a more serious problem in. our plans of army organization than for any of the great Hurepean nations, excepting possibly Russia. Just at present the ‘movement of our troops through Texas and to the Mexican border and in. Mexico has been seriously hampered by the lack of — adequate transportation. Many of the points at which it becomes necessary for us to protect our territory are so sparsely settled that a railroad will not support itself from earnings alone. Yet rafiroads must be built in times of peace to be ready in case of war. The transportation of 16-inch guns requires espe- cially-built flatcars capable of carrying 200,000 pounds. At present, our Government borrows such ~ car from the Bethlehem Steel works—while at the same time, by the way, we start in to cripple by leg- islation the very plant which makes good our Gov- ernmental defects. In an emergency of war, we should need scores of such special cars to transport back and forth from the munition plants new guns and old ones to be relined and repaired. In some outlying sections, that may become most important, from a military standpoint, bridges and roadbed are not in condition to stand the heavy burden of mo- bilization. National Railroad Commission in Place of the State Bodies N considering our railroads as a means for mov- | ing our military forces, we must regard them as a great national network. All! the railroads of first-rate importance are instruments of inter- state commerce. They are the arteries of the nation, through which its life’s blood flows back and forth. We cannot deal with a railroad system and build it into such an effective machine through 48 separate State Legislatures, and through 48 separate—and. often conflicting—railroad commissions. One national railroad commission must supersede state commissions. Our public policy with reference. to the railroads must turn around the national view- point rather than the restricted and provincial view- point of any one state, Such procedure as changing the headlight, the size of the crew and the sanitafy equipment for drinking water as a railroad passes from one state to the other is ridiculous and harm- ful. : | Railroad regulation must be made the function of the whole nation, and undertaken solely by the National Government; the Constitution was adopted with, as one of its special and most important pur- poses, the design to secure absolute national con- trol of all international and interstate commerce and of the agencies by which such commerce is carried on. ‘ ) The National Government must become the ex- clusive authority that deals in the interest of the public with questions of rate and that prescribes con- . ditions under which a railroad shall be operated. So far as it is necessary for the publie to regulate financing or the issue of new railroad securities, it must be by the National Government. . The national commission that has this. task in hand must be dominated by men who have an in- sight into business problems and who will use their skill and energy as experts in business for the serv- ice of the nation. They must recognize that rail- roads are a legitimate business enterprise that can be required to render service for the purpose of na- tional preparedness only if permitted to earn an in- come sufficient to meet expenditures and to give a fair return upon the capital invested. The outbreak of a war is a period of great stress for the whole transportation industry, which is then called upon to handle a double burden. Provision must be made for an adequate number of experienced workers. The possibility of friction between labor and capital under such circumstances must be eliminated by the proper policy tn times of peace. Great questions that arise between the rail- roads and the public, between the ratlroads and their employes, can become so damaging to the nation that there must be a superior authority to give, when needed, the expression of the larger pub- lic interest: Must Build Merchant Marine . as Part of Preparedness Plans HEN the battleship fleet was sent around W the world great difficulty was encountered in finding supply ships to act as tenders, carrying coal and other necessary supplies, For each ship supplied by the navy, two ships were re- quired from the commercial fleets—almost entirely from the commercial fleets under foreign flags, In case of actual war neutral nations would not have been permitted to enter the service of our navy in this way.

The cousin from Gelderland did not sleep Well that night. He was dressed many hours before the household awoke.

His cousins of The Hague pressed him to stay, and they hastened to find for him the time of train departure, so that he should not miss it if he really were determined to go. Cousin Jansen went home and told his wife Anne-Lise he had enjoyed his visit immensely. About a year later he received a long letter from Mr. Vani Middlenesse. It addressed him as “Very dear and Hon- ored Cousin,’’ and referred with touch- ing’ words to the pleasure his visit had given them. Then the letter went on to say that he had been so unfortunate as “We are in the most desperate condition,” wrote Mr. Van Middilenesse. ‘If I could borrow from you 240 gulden it would relieve us unspeakably. We need this sum most urgently, and within three days." Jansen walked out into his fields.

Where Our Cities Got Their Names By Eleanor Clapp. -——_ ea a ee eee ee ee ———— a |Our National N the see-saw political days of the ‘4s, when Whigs and Democrats were winning alternately and new third parties were springing up at every campaign, there was entered ‘the first dark horse in. a presidential race and, with the luck that usually at- tends such strategy, he won both nom- ination and election. His name was James K. Polk, a Democratic member of Congress from Tennessee, who had been meritioned merely as a possibile candidate for Vice President. There was fine promise for Demo- cratic success in 1844 because the Whig party was full of dissension over Presi- dent John Tyler, and the political pen- dulum gave every indication of swing- ing back. .:enry Clay Was the unan- }imous choice of the Whigs, and he was fated to set the nomination in a year when the odds were against. On the Democratic side Martin Van Buren, who had been eilceted President in 1836 and defeated in 184, sought an- other nomination. His contestants were Lewis Cass, James Buchanan and Rich- ard M. Johnson, his former Vice Presi- dent. Van Bure@ really had a majority oF the delegates in the convention that met as usual in Baltimore in December, 1848, but the fateful two-thirds rule, which had been inaugurated 12 years before for his benefit, now deprived him of the nomination. He tried to have it set aside, but failed, and his chance ito win was lost. One after anc*her the four candidates attained the lead, but none of them could obtain the necessary two-thirds.

Muller.) Origin of Mountain Storms. T is not unusual for the careful ob- server to see a thunderstorm born on the square granite head of Longs Peak. First, out of the blue sky a light mist seems to gather. In a few mo- ments, while you watch, it becomes a tiny cloud. This grows with great ra- pidity. Within five minutes, perhaps, the mountain top is hidden. Then, out of nothing apparently, the cloud swells and sweeps over the sky. Sometimes in 15 minutes after the first tiny fleck of mist appears it is raining in the valley and possibly snowing on the mountain. In half an hour more it has cleared. Lodge 900 Years Old.

Her feet were on a dry chip and the rain ran off her feathers just as if she were a duck. tinder her warm wing was a flock of yellow, fluffy balls that peeped and sometimes stuck out their heads to see if the sky were clearing, but the mother gave them a gentle peck that sent them back under cover. Back in a bit of old sack under an upturned barrel was a tiny creature, larger than the little chicks under the mother’s wing, but a dull brown and thin of body. Scrawny, scragged and half fed, it dared not come under the wing of the hen that had hatched it, for all the room there was now oc- cupied by the yellow chicks, and the hen herself , refused to mother the strange thing which came out of the big egg which had been placed among her own in the nest. So alone, half-starved it lived.

In three months it was big and fat, and then a wonderfu! change came. The ugly brown feathers were gone and in their place gleamed teautiful dark ones which shone in green and gold.

The place where New York City, rather its chief borough, now stands has been named three’ separate times by three different races. The origina! inhabitants, the Indians, called it “Manhattan,” which means “the small island.” The Dutch named it ‘New Amsterdam” after the largest city in Holland. The word “Amsterdam” signifies the dam or dike cf the Am- sel River. Then came the English, who named it ‘“‘New York,’ in honor of the Duke of York, who took his title from the famous old city of York, where Con- stantine was elected Emperor when Rome was mistress of the world. The Romans called this great military camp “Eboracum,” but to the Brit- ons it was “Eurewic,’ which meant a city on a river. The Danes, who afterward overran that part of En- giand, modified that name to Yerick. And from thence York is but a step. The first foreign visitor to New York was Verrazano, an Italian sailor in the employ of the French. In 1524 he sailed up the American coast,on a voyage of discovery and came into New York harbor, where he traded O know the or ‘'y This was commanded by with the Indians a little and then went away.

A few ‘years later “Holland laid Claim to all the land along the “great river” and calleg the whole territory “New Netherlands.” Then Peter Minuit, director general of the East india Co., bought Manhattan Island from the Indians. for. 60 guilders ($24). This was undoubtedly the best bargain ever offered in New York real estate. A small block house, Fort Amsterdam, was built and the place was named “New Amsterdam.” The Bneglish took the place from the Dutch in 1664 and called it ‘New York.” <And.New York it has ever Fince remained except for a single year.

INDIANS LOST THE SERIES ‘Pacemakers of the League Un- able to Halt the Near Tail- End St. Louisans. By W. J. O’ Del Pratt deliverez one tremendous punch in the flinch while Carl Weil- man, after a five-day sojourn at his Ohio home, pitched a perfectly bal- anced game, and the rest was dead easy. The Browns knocked off the pace-making Indans, 2—1, extricated themselves from the ecellar> and showed unmistakable signs of a re- turn to that form which pre-season lopesters said would land them in first division, a pennant pretender. This all happened in a harry, yester- day afternoon, and only a scant 1100 crowd was theré to see it. Today the Browns are only three games behind Chicago and ohly two games behind De- troit. And let’s insist again that that means the Browns ure only three games out oi sirst place, because Chicago and Detroit are the teams that must be beaten. It was the first time since their re- turn home from a rather disastrous road trip that the Browns demeaned themselves like a real ball club. Their defense was much smarter and their attack sharper and more virile than in either of the other two games won from . Cleveland. Yesterday's victory, by the Way, gave the Browns the odd box score in five tilts with tHe tribesmen. Browns Were Fortunate. Withal, it must be admitted that they got the breaks. That they havenr been getting the breaks explains why they are no higher than seventh ag en Yesterday, though, they got their quota and consequently they won. e Indians hit more line drives and more vicious grounders than did the Browns; but all the wicked wallops of Speaker,\ y Co. went straight to the; Brown defensive men. In the first two innings four long flies were sent out, -rather four line drives that each would have been a triple if their respective courses varied @ feet either way. They were tremendous wallops but they avgiled naught. Lookout, Boys! Pratt Is Back. Pratt won the game at the very go. Two were on, two were out and Del had + two strikes called in the ‘first inning when -he hit to the right-center field fence for a triple, emptying the has- socks. Three singles in the sixth frame, the last by Roth, gave the enemy their on marker. is was Pratt's second successive k. © wallop. With two hits on succes- sive days he has driven home five runs and won two ball games, That only in- posed 0 what a handicap has been im- n the Browns by Del’s inability t the ball safe in many games lost he had slammed into‘a double with the bases filled on Thursday, pia i the Browns’ only chance to win, the writer for one was in favor of giv- ing Del a rest. His head was down and he looked, as ferocious as a toothless PommergiAian. But at no time yet this oceree have we lost faith in Pratt as a sacker and a clean-up hitter. *record for four years with the - Browns clearly indicates that he haa only one man to respect in the league. He is Eddie Collins. By a coincidence Collins, too, is in a slump. However, Pratt is awakening. This is the time of the vear that he usually hits his atride and from here to the wire he may be pended upon as a near ,300 hitter. He always Sas hit better than .850 in the ae three months, enabling him to finish ‘the season close to the .30 mark. for “the firat two months and a half he has never batted better than .200, which makes it imperative that he pick up amagingly in the waning weeks of the campaign. Pratt a Reliable Fielder. As a fielder Pratt is as good as they eome, Annually he has had-as many, sometimes more, assists than Collins or. anybody else. He can go as far to either side as Collins and is sure death on any- thing hit in the air, no matter how far he must travel! to get under it. His one weakness is on balis hit straight at him.

Rape blasphemy at Columbia to insinuate that Bob Simpson’s record for the high hurdles, made last Saturday, was a courtesy of the timers. Nev- ertheless, the atmosphere will be decidedly cleared today if Simpson finds conditions favorable to doing the high hurdles under 15 seconds. Should the young Missouri giant repeat today with anything under 15 seconds his performance will be given universal credit and the record be accepted tacit- ly, if not officially, everywhere. Bring Simpson Here. ESIDENTS of Missouri would however still rather see Simpson in the high hurdle event at the Western A. A. U. championships, to be held in St. Louis this summer. Should he enter unattached he could establish a record that would go into the guides of the world and be accepted universally. The Columbian Athletic AssOciation stands ready to vouch that it will have will consent to high hurdlers_o its new track in record-beating shape. if the meet is awarded to it and if “siins/ o after the mark. The chief difficulty would then be finding af class to make Simpson extend himself. That Heavy Giant Artillery. [ HE loud pedal is being held down by followers of the fortunes of John Me- Graw, who has just come to life. Last year John was as inert as the free silver issue. But thanks to some 42- jeraBle suc guns, he is pounding at the defense of Pen- nant Heights with consideraDle success. Men like Bill Joyce, who ought to know better, are exclaiming: “The Gients are IN!” The Giants are “in” about as far as the peddler who wedged in his boot to prevent the lady-of-the-house from closing the door. He's in for a pinch. * . * Giants Batting Out of Reason. NE quick look at the averages would indicate that the Giants can't be stopped. Doyle .340, Robertson .333, Rariden 326, Burns .311, Fletcher ,289, McKechnie .284, Kauff .282, and Merkle .2(4 are some of the hitting figures.

HERE everybody’ is crediting th e Giants’ rush with being Cleveland followers, outside of the Forest City are few. L, pace-making team’s out-of-town critics appears to believe the justiy in the front rank. There is no confidence in the permanence of the team’s pitching effective- ness. The team here showed some weak Pinch hitting, some very bad catch- ing, fierce pitching and a lot of other weaknesses.

White is so cock-sure of winning that he had already promised the first fight, after winning the title, to. Ritchie Mitchell. Last night’s bout between them was elose enough for Mitchell to he taken on. Mitchell had to do some sprinting and hiding, but survived the ten rounds at Milwaukee in good condi- tion. White bumped him to his knees, once; but Ritchie was up instantly and able to continue running with undim- ished speed. Matching White and Mitchell is like pitting an English bull against a jack | rabbit. For supreme nerve give us Harry Pol- lock, manager of Freddie Welsh. It pays to be nervy, as the financial suc- cess of both Pollogk and Welsh will at- test. But the man who can demand terms that Pollock did, recently in New York, must have sorosis of the con- écience. Asked what he would want for a bout between Welsh and Benny Leonard, two weeks after Welsh’s go with Charlev White, and m c Welsh defeated White, Poltock replied: “Fifty thousand dollars lose or draw Gibson was willing to give him $30,000 —proving that everybody connected with boxing has gone mad.

St. CHAMPION AT HIS BEST Willie Averaged 59 for 66,000 Points; Earned $52,000 Net in Six Months. Willie Hoppe, world’s champion balk- line billiard player, is expected in this city today from San Francisco, where he has been since his return from Ha- wail, when he concluded a tour that lasted for several months. Hoppe, while here, will confer with his manager, R. B. Benjamin, and with Charlies Peterson, relative to a cham- pionship match here next fall. He will also make arrangements for his fall tour. ' According to Mr. Benjamin, Kojj Ya- mada, the Japanese player, will not make the trip next season with Hoppe. Many games are to be played on the Pacific Coast and it is considered in- advisable to use one of his race there again.’ Charles Peterson of St. Louis and “Chick” Wright of San Francisco are the players who will be used to show off Hoppe during the coming season. Peterson's consent has yet to be eb- tained, but it is thought he will agree to take the trip in lieu of a vacation. Pete has lost time and health through over-devotion to building up the sport. Peterson is one of the greatest exhibi- tion players in the game. When in form he can outplay Yamada or any other shortstop. He has “prepped’’ Heppe for more than one world’s echam- pionship mateh. On one occasion Hoppe presented Peterson with a watch for his: services in this capacity. ‘“‘Pete’’ is also considered the champion fancy billiard- ist of the country. Wright is not well known here but is esteemed elsewhere as being among the foremost players of the country. For some of his exhibitions in Californie Hoppe may induce Ora Morningstar te oppose him. Morningster withdrew from the Champions’ League two years ago because of his wife's health. He has been operating a billiard hall in San Diego ever since. He was con- sidered next best to Hoppe. Concerning Hoppe’s future, Benjamin said, in substance: Chalenge Match in October. “Our first aim will be to clear the field of challengers.

The author accepts the year 1648, when the Thirty Years’ War culminated in the peace of Westphalia, as the effective starting point of the new Germany. The German State of 1871, which developed through several stages, showed, he says, essentially Prussian features, a fusion unique in the world of the prin- |: ciples of authority and democracy. “The authority,” he says, ‘‘all Americans rec- ognize and many denounce in unmeas- ured terms; the democracy, which ls the undeniable yoke-fellow of authority, is often willfully ignored. But democ- racy and authority in, on the whole,/ healthy interaction, constitute what I}; must insist on as the peculiar German contribution to the political experiments of the present day.’’ | The author finds the cause of the war in the competition of the Euro- pean nations, under the prevailing re- gsime of capital, for lands, commerce and power, for the commercial good which in the minds of ali has never ceased to constitute the end of life. He prophesies that the war will prove & constructive event of the highest importance, bringing the European na- tions together more closely than ever before on the basis of a new social. purpose and a higher social organ- ization.

Does | poe ee 8) A BETTER TONE —INWALL STREET = Motor Shares Are Higher on Active Buying—Bank Statement Poor. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. | NEW YORK, June 3.—The Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial re- view today, says: “Possibly because of revision of yesterday's early opinion, that the maval engagement of May 31 was a formidable blow to the English navy, the decline on the Stock Exchange did.not continue today, but the mar- ket moved with great uncertainty and irregularity, and most of the day’s activity was in the ‘war indus- trials.’ “London’s stock market was only slightly affected by the news of yes- terday, a slight early decline in Brit- ish Government bonds being mostly recovered before the close. “Notwithstanding reduction of $9,- 700,000 in the loan account, the bank statement showed a decrease of $39,- 10,000 in surplus reserves, which are now $40,000,000 below those of a month ago and $125,000,000 under January's best showing. This week’s result is due to $13,000,000 decrease in reserves, of which total $6,2)0,000 represented outflow of cash of the bank's own vaults. “Arrival of $2,500,000 more gold from Canada today brought the total of that. movement durin the past three weeks to $29,700,000, yet the zold in “New York bank vaults has decreased $25,000,000 during the same period.” DETAILED REPORT OF DAY'S WALL STREET TRANSACTIONS NEW YORK, June 3.—The week-end ses- gion denoted the concern of financial inter- ests in the latest news from abroad. In- ternational shares were inclined to sag for the most rart, with concessions in Anglo- French and Canadian war issues. Specula- tion in certain specialties was reriewed with greater vigor. -however, automobile stocks addine enormously to recent gains, with new high records for Willys-Overland com- mon and preferred and Chandler Motors, while General Motors made a jump of 67 points, at 529. Cuban and South Porto Rico sugars rose 14 to 15 roints, and Marine pre- ferred came within the smallest fraction of ite maximum at 98%. The closing was ir- regular. .- Bonds were lower.
