PRICE ONE CENT | ROADS TO REFUSE ALL FREIGHT HERE AFTER SATURDAY St. Louis Executives Issue Em- bargo Order After Meeting in Bush’s Office. STRIKEBREAKERS HIRED Workmen and Guards Told in Newspaper Advertisements to Report to Labor Agencies. Resident executives of St. Louis rail- way lines this afternoon establish») aa embargo on ail freight of all kinds be ginning at 6 p. m. Saturday. The em. bargo order means that unless ths order calling the strike of engineers, conduc- tors, firemen and brakemen for Monday morning is ree-inaea, all freight move- nents will be stcpy -d. The executives me* in the office of B F. Bush, receivcr of the Missouri Pa- cific and Iron Mountain lines. W. S. McChesney, president of the Terminal Railroad Association, was instructed to make known the order. Under this decision, the ratiroads will accept no less than car-load freight € o'clock Saturday night will accept no freight in any quantities. The order reads embargo all freight of all kinds, from all points, to all destinations. Prévious information of the intended embargo was that it would only apply to perishable freight, and that other freight would be accepted subject to delay. Strike-Breakers Notified to Be Ready for Duty Here. Railroad companies began the em- ployment of strikebreakers and men to fuard railroad property today, svin¢ through their own offices and others through employment agencies. The following advertisement appeared in the newspapers: = “All guards report to Watkins’ ‘Model Labor Agency, 816 Market street,’’ The guards, labor agents explained to & Post-Dispatch reporter, are to guard railroad property during the expected ‘Strike of the trainmen: “Any guy that is big enough can land Job,” said John M. Watkins, ‘pro- of the agency which is advertis- Watkins is the agent for the Nev York Central, Pennsylvania and Clo- yér Leaf railroads in supplying guards and also experienced train- men to act as strike-breakers. The applicants for positions as strike-breakers, he said, are being paid from $2.50 a day to $5 a day during the time they are waiting to go into the railroad service. From Lic time they sign up with the agency ® men receive pay for “waiting. he Model Agency has éngaged #8 guards and 435 engineers, firemen, con- ductors and brakemen for service on the three roads it represents. The Michel agency at 9 South\ Ninth street has engaged 100 guards ahd 680 train- men for service. The latter agency is recruiting men for a larger agency and the proprietors do not know what roads The applicants for positions as strike- breakers are required to pass the regu- lar examination for trainmen on 4ll the roads, the agents said, before they are placed on the waiting list and are given pay for their time. The Missouri, Kansas & Texas road advertised for men and said all com- ‘munications would be hetd confidential. The Baltimore & Ohio raijroad adver- tised for machinists, car repairers, tele- Benjamin F. Bush, receiver of the Missourt-Pacific-Iron Mountain sys- tem, yesterday issued an appeal to em- Ployes to remain in the service of the company in the event of a strike, promising them ample protection in the discharge of their duties. The appeal recites that for many years there has been a friendly re- lationship between the company and its employes which will be broken if the men leave the service, It reviews in a general way the negotiations between the railroad companies and the employes and urges that the men realize that settlement of differences through resort to strike is a waste- ful and unnecessary procedure, dis- astrous to both sides. Traveling Salexamen Pian to Hasten Back to Headquarters. Many traveling salesmen, representing houses in New York and other Eastern ‘Cities, are preparing to close their sam- their headquarters, in view of the prob- ability of a railway strike becoming ef- fective Monday. Some said they would not return to headquarters, but would hasten their de- parture to thd next large city in their territory, hoping to reath it before a strike comes. Has 400 to 500 Strike-Hreakers AAAS at Springfield, Mo. SPRINGFI LD, Mo., Aug. 31.—Be- tween 400 and 500 men are being quart- ered here by the St. Louis and San Fran-, Cisco Railway in anticipation of the Strixe Monday of the four brotherhoods, it was learned today.

POTATOES SOAR TO $2.25 A BUSHEL WHOLESALE FROM $I Threat of Railroad Strike Causes In- crease in Produce Prices Gener- ally—Shipments Dwindle. The price of vegetables and fruit began sky-rocketing today, owing io the impending railroad strike. Very little is being shipped in from dis- tant points. Potatoes, which sold to grocers fo1 $1 a bushel fuur days ago, today are being soldeto them at $2.25; cabbages have doubled in price, grapes have increased from $1.10 to $1.50 a case, and sweet potatoes have gone i $1.25 from $1. P. M. Kiely, who has been in tha commission business for 49 years, Said that the market was “extremeiy wild catish,” and that there was no prediction what prices would be to niorrow. Hog prices advanced at the Na- tional Stockyards today to $11.50 a hundred pounds, 35 cents higher than the high reeord of $11.15, which was made March 28, 191). The price we up 10 cents today. The advance up to this time, stockmen say, has no: been due to the threatened railroad Strike, but to scant supply and un- precedented consumption in this coun- try and shipments abroad. It is ariticipated that if there is a railroad strike the price will soon go to $12, and it may go that hish anyway.

VIENNA, via London, Aug. 31.—The Austrian official communication issue: yesterday admits that except northeas: of Orsovo on’ the’ Danube near the lion Gates, where repeated Rumanian attacks were repulsed, the Austro- Hungarian troops have been withdraw?) Step by step from the frontier in ac- cordance with pre-arranged plans. “The enemy,” says the communica. tion, ‘“‘will boast of having capture: Petrozseny. Brasso (Kronstadt), and I\cedzi-Vasarhely, (northeast of Kron- stadt). On the northern-most front Ru- manian columns are battling in. the Gyergyo Mountains (in Eastern Transy\}- vunit, 80 miles north of F ronstadt). “In the Carpathians the Germans have recaptured Kukul heights, which have been hotly contested in recent weeks.”’ The Vienna admission that the Ru- manians are engaged with the Austro- Tfungarians in the Gyergyo Mountains shows that on the northwestern front of Rumania hostile forces have invaded Transylvania: some 25 miles. The Ru- manians also are near Koedzi-Vasar- hely, about 40 miles northeast of Kron- stadt. Bucharest Says Rumanians Are Three Miles East of Kronstadt. BUCHAREST, Aug. 30.—An Statement issued Tuesday said: “vn the western and northern fronts Rumanian troops crossed the Austro- Hungarian frontier during the nicht cf the 27th, and after fairly lively fighting reached numerous points, including Mount Fagatzelu, northwest of Nyergpo; Kissepeica hill, west of Gyergyo, and the village of Hossezufalu, four kilometers (about three miles) east of Kronstadt (Brasso). Our artillery fired on Orsova, destroying a petroleum depot. Our fourth army corps has tak- en seven officers and 734 men prisoner. “An armed enemy tug opened fire on Turnu Severin, but retired to Orsova under fire of our batteries. Austro-Hun- Zarian monitors opened fire on Gieur- gevo, but were compelled to retire by our artillery.” CHANCELLOR SEES KAISER AT FRONT official Trip to Great Headquarters Caused by Entry of Ru- mania Into War. BERLIN, Aug. 31.—The new situation suddenly created by Rumanias entry into the war has sent the Imperial Chan- cellor hurrying to great headquarters for a conference with the akKiser. German nerves apparently are standiriz sucessfully the severest test to which they have been subjected in the history of the world war. There ig a growing feeling of optimism in some quarters, induced by Germany's sharp answer of war to Rumania and the heretofore un- publishable fact, now made known tuo the public, that Field Marshal von Mackensen is in command in the Bal- kans, and has been all along preparing against the day when Rumania might declare war, Making his strategic and tactical dispositions as thoroughly as before the brilliant Servian campaign. Nothing has so stiffened the backbone of German public opinion as this cer- tainty ~s to Mackensen's whereabouts not alone, but co-operating closely with Continued on Page 2, Columa 6, and the further knowledge that he is.

President Walter D. Thompson of the Folice Board got fuur dairy proprietors and four representotives of the strik- ing milk kagon drivers, together at 1 o'clock this afternoon, in the Board's recom at Police Headquarters. He “laid down the law’ to both sides, telling them it was time for them to reach an agreement which would make it possible for the public to have milk de- livery once more. Then he went out, leaving Chief Young inside, stationed a sergeant outside the door, and left the two sides together. An hour before the meeting began Thompson spoke of it as an arbitration conference, and said he and Chief Young would act as referees. But he later decided that he would not remain and that Young should be merely a spectator. “I hope it will not be necessary to de- tain them,’’ Thompson remarked to re- porters as he left the board, room. ‘There is no reason why they should not reach an agreement today." He declined to say whether he would try to “detain” them, in case they sought to leave without having agreed. The conferees were Adam Thornton of the Union Dairy Co.; R. L. Kayser of the St. Louis Co.; D. C. Kerckhoff of the Pevely Co., and William Grafeman of the Grafeman Co., for the dairymen,; Thomas L. Hughes, secretary of the In- ternational Teamsters’ Union, T. E. Coyne and D. J. Murphy, officials of the same union, and Thomas F. Barr, business agent of the milk wagon drivers’ union, for the strikers. Thompson's success in bringing the conference about was in part due, it is believed, to his power to remove police protection from the dairies—a course which he has been urged to take, in view of the fact that armed strike- breakers are working for the dairies. He said nothing about this point in his writ- ten address to the conferees, which was read to them by Secretary Espy of the Police Board. Free Band Concerts Tonight.

MONTPELIER, Vt., Aug. 31.—Vermont guardsmen who left Burlington yester- day under orders from the War Depart- ment to proceed to Eagle Pass, aban- doned their trip because, according tv officers, the railroads would not guar- antee that the troops would reach the border before the time set for a strike on Monday. The troop train passed through here today on its return to Camp Gates. Telegraphic orders which caused the troop train to turn back came from the headquarters of the Department of the East and were delivered early today at Brattleboro. NEW YORK, Aug. 31.—The Vermont troops which have been recalled com- prise companies recruited after the de- parture of the Vermont regiment, it was sald today at the headquarters of the Department of the East. The atrike situation, it was said, had nothing to do with their return. GIANT SEAPLANE GIVEN TRYOUT Craft Bullt at Washington Navy Yard Makes Good Showing. WASHINGTON, Aug. 31.—A giant sea- plane designed by naval constructors and built at the Washington Navy Yard was given a preliminary tryout yester- day in a flight over the Potomac. Navy officials were gteatly pleased at the showing made. The craft, a biplane with a 60-foot wink spread, has a dead load capacity of nearly 2000 pounds, and when completed will carry a one-pound- er rapid-fire gun and a radio outfit. She ia equipped with two American-built gasoline motors, rated at 18 horsepower each. Three pontoons of a new design support her in the water. A FERRYMAN'S RIVAL IS OUSTED Cable Used _by One Crossed Land Leased by Other at Lemay Read. Justice of the Peace Mathews yes- terday, at Clayton, decided in favor of Charles Lawrence, a ferryman, in a suit to have his rival, Henry Ehlers, ousted from the use of prop- erty leased by Lawrence for a lanid- ing on the Meramec River at the Lemay Ferry road. Lawrence contended the cable of Ehier’s ferry crossed the property of John Kassebaum, on the north bank of the river, which Kassebaum has leased to him exclusively. Ebler’s de- fense was that his cable was, not fastened on Kassebaum's proper’y and only crossed it. He appealed, FIRST AND THIRD MISSOURI INFANTRY 10 BE SENT HOME St. Louis and Kansas City Regi- ments Are Designated for Recall. _ —_— - SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Aug. 31.—The First and Third Missouri infantry, the St. Louis and Kansas City regiments, respectively, are among the national guardsmen who will be recaWed from their border stations and sent home in accordance with the War Department’s order vesterday.

He Made $160,000 in Three Years in Los Angeles; Spent $3000 a Month. LOST AT MONTE CARLO Beau Brummel Is Arraigned on Embezzlement Charge and Pleads Not Guilty. “ Constanttino Vincent Riccardi, the young lawyer and beau brummel of the cabaret cafe circuit, was arraigned to- day before Judge Clark, in the Court of Criminal Correction, on a charge of embezzelment by bailee of $500 from a client. He pleaded not guilty. At the same time Assistant Circuit Attorney Thomas told that other clients of Riccardi were making: complaints against him, and that ne had learned that Riccardi had been to see them early in the morning in an effort to make satisfactory settlement. Riccardi was a prisoner for 10 hours ‘in the Central District holdover before he could induce a professional bonds- man to go on his bond for $1000. He was released at 8:15 o'clock last night, and hastened to the Buckingham iiotel, where he has lived since coming to St. Louls nine months ago with a plan to. corner the Italian legal wusiness in town. Tells of His Career. While Riccardi was a prisoner, dustin the evening, a Post-Dispatch reporter called to get his statement about his ca- reer here and elsewhere. The lawyer was brought out of a cell, and permitted to pace nervously back and forth in the holdover while he stold his story. As night came on and no bondsman ap- peared, Riccardi apparently gave up hope of being released last night, and begged the reporter to remain longer. “I don’t want to be put back in that cell,”” he said. “I guess it will be pretty hard to asleep there. The boards are pretty hard and there are no blankets or pillows.”’ Riccardi talked in large figures of his income and expenditures. Apparently he was not feazed by the fact that he had only a dollar in his pocket. There was a‘ time in Los Angeles “when it cost him $3000 a month to live he said, but since he had peen here, in nine months, he had spent only a trifle of $10,000 or $12,000 which he had made hefe. He said he had been a lib- eral spender in the cafes here, where he had met some of the best known young men who frequent those places, and through them had been introduced to young women of some wealthy and socially prominent families, to several of whom he had been ardently at- tentive. “This thing has beat me out of half a million dollars,’”’ Riccardi plaintively volunteered, taking another: puff on a cigarette. And the cigarette was of ; plain variety, quite in contrast to the mongrammed ones he had been “wont to hand out so liberally, from silver and gold cases, in cafes. ‘But Tu make $250,000 outside of a year, any- “how. This will blow over. I don’t think they'll. ever put me to trial on this case.” 3 Father Was a Baker. “But to start from the beginning,’’ ‘Riccardi said, ‘‘My father, now dead, owned a string of bakeries in Utica, WN. Y. I went to a prep school and studied in an office there, and in 1908-09 ‘took a special course in law at Yale, In 1908 I went to Indianapolis, was ad- mitted to the bar, became attorney for ‘the Italian consul, got into society and ‘married Miss Claybelle Culver. She Was worth $300,000 in her own right. But."’ ~he added, ‘‘I never took a cent ‘of, it. “Things didn’t g0 right in Indianapo- is. I took my wife to Los Angeles, where I had a big practice, and began buying options on land. In three years I made $160,000, and I spent $3000 a month. I was a good spender and I took in all the sights. And then, like a thun- Aerclap, m my wife told me she wanted a divorce. aun had learned that I had been on liman with a womah,"’ Riccardi ex- ned. He laughed as he recalled this; up a petition for her, charging myself with desertion. I gave her $65,000, and,.with $70,000 I had left, I went to Europe so that she could get a divorce.” — Goes to Monte Carlo, Riccardi told of visiting France, Ger- ‘Many and Italy and then going to Monte Carlo, where he said he lost $20,000 or more gambling. Through friends he learned that his wife's divorce suit had been followed by a number of com- plaints against him by Los Angeles cli- ents and his indictment for embezzle- ment of $3500 from a client. “I cabled the District Attorney that I would come back, if the em- beazzlement charge was the only one against me. I did not get a reply, and later I surrendered at Los Ange- les. I found that instead ef one, there were many charges against me. _ I Knocked all of them out. Then I threw up my hands and gave Los An- geles up in disgust."’ He said he was charged with em- beasling $3500 from a Mrs. Shaw, whom he had tepresented in a di- -yorce suit. This, he said, was the amount of his fee. He did not know anything about how she happened to fail to appear at his trial to testify against him, resulting in the indict- ment being dropped. And he said there also had teen a misunderstand- ing over hia fee in.the case of two Pasadena school teachers, who got a $16,000 judgment against him in a land deal. Met Sidney Francis in West. Riccardi then discussed his adven- tures here. At Los Angeles he had met Sidney Francis, son of the Am- beesador to Russia, and when he came here Francis introduced him, in a George D. Little, an attorney wt “member of a family socially | ent. He said that Little, at THURSDAY EVENING, sUGUST 31, 1998 Se 3 AE Se eee This photogr CONSTANTINO VINCENT RICCARDI. raph was made by the Police Photographer yesterday at head- quarters upon the return of Riccardi from Kansas City in custody. A 7 p< — — his invitation, moved into his law office in the Boatmen’s Bank Building, but that Little had been there only a few days when he had to ask Little to make another arrangement. “Then Little started all this trou- ble,” Riccardi angrily added. Little told a reporter the other day that he had moved voluntarily, after observing Riccardi’s office methods for a few days. He admitted that he had started some trouble for Riccardi —‘‘submarined him,” as he expressed it. * “Then Dr. Ralph Niedringhaus got mad at me,” Riccardi continued. “I got a di- vorce for his wife and afterward talked the doctor into deeding $58,000 of prop- erty to her. Afterward he got sore about it and accused me of talking him into — It was then 6:30 p. m. and Riccardi had become morose and worried at the failure of a bondsman to appear. ‘They have:raised the bond on me three times today,” he complained. ‘At first it was $800, then $1000 and now $1600. Woman Calls to Arrest Him. A well-dressed young woman called. ‘‘Well, Irene, did you get that $200?" Riccardi asked. She had, and had given it to Joe Mount, a saloon keeper, who was considering going on Riccardl’s bond. The lawyer said that his friend, H. Clay Bernard, a Denver lawyer, who came back to St. Louis with him when he was arrested at the Muehlbach Hotel in Kansas City Thursday, had given Mount a check for $200 on a Denver bank as additional security and Mount phoned the Denver bank to see if it was good. It was. “T can give more security than this $400," Riccardi declared. “I have pawn tickets for my two:diamond rings and a diamond stickpin. They are worth $1000. I got $300 on them.” Riccardi had learned that his clients were calling in considerable numbers at the Circuit Attorney’s office. And just then a Conatable entered the hold- over and served him with notice that his office furniture had been levied upon by Anthony Canzonari, who claims $300 wages due as an office assistant to Ric- cardi. “I don’t owe Tony a thing,’’ Riccardi ; “He's a fine office assistant, he is!” And as an afterthought he asked the Constable who had given bond for Canzonari to secure the levy. Ray Weinbrenner, Assistant Prosecut- ing Attorney, had signed the bond. ‘‘There’s another friend of mine,”’ Ric- cardi lamented. ‘I helped elect his fa- ther.’’ Weinbrenner’s father, George P. Weinbrenner, recently won the Repub- lican nomination for Sheriff. “If I can*just get out of here for 48 hours I can raise $50,000," Riccardi as- serted, taking another cigarette. ‘‘I’ve got to get out and see these people. When they've got me locked up here I can’t do anything for myself and any- body can put a knock in on me and get away with it, “I gave all my morc:, except a dollar, to the policeman who brought me back from Kansas City. I told him to go out and have a good time tonight. I wanted to get out and meet him, and show him a good time.”’ Riccardi turned his hip pockets wrong side out. They were empty. Then he pulled the dollar bill from his watch pocket. “I hope they don't attach my at the Buckingham,”’ he said. Riccardi has sep his’ fine blue auto, too. He says J. S. McIntyre, a lawyer, has his note for a. which he gave him two weeks ago, to secure loans, and that he has signed over some legal fees to McIntyre. McIntyre also has a check for $500 which Riccardi got last June from a client, John Mussato of Christo- pher, Ill. It was the che@k transaction that resulted in Riccardi’s arrest. The complainant says he gave it to Riccardi to buy stock in a company Riccardi claimed to be promoting to take over the Hotel Beers, at Grand and Olive. The check has not been cashed, Riccardi said, and he could straighten this affair out, too, if McIntyre was not out of town. Riccardi was asked about the report that he had boasted that he was engaged to marry a young woman of high social standing, living on Lindell boulevard. ‘That's all off,’’ he said. ‘“‘But you can say for me that I never went with any scrubs,’’ he added, with expanded chest. declared. clothes nn acne our apne etn <n Gein an Oe eee Mercantile Savings on or before Sep ¢. it will then P nisi in- terest from Sept.

Eric von Falkenhayn as chief of the General Staff, reads as fol- lows: “Not wishing to oppose your desire to be relieved of your office, I seize the op- portunity to thank you heartily for the devotion and loyalty you have displayed during the past two years to your heavy and responsible office, to which you have devoted all your strength and initiative. What you especially accom- plished in your energetic and foresee- ing labor and in your indefatigueable forethought for the army and the Fa- therland, will never be forgotten. “The full appreciation of your merits during the war at the head of the Gen- eral Staff mut be left to later times, To me, personally, you have been a most loyal and unselfish advisor. Thankfully, my ,best wishes accompany you in the future; and I confer upon you the cross and star of a commander of my Royal Order of the House of Hohenzollern with Swords.

I confidently expect you will render the best services imaginable to my army and the Fatherland. “I seize the opportunity to express to the victorious protector of the Eastern front my heartiest thanks for all he has done for the Fatherland during the twvu years of the war.” a Hindenburg Said to Favor Policy of Bethmann-Hollweg. LONDON, Aug. 31.—The displacement of Gen. von-~Falkenhayn as German Chief of Staff and the appointment of Field Marshall von iHndenburg to that post are said by Reuter’s correspondent at Berne to mark the end of long and hitter strife between these men.

R., Aug. 31.—. orto Rico has just completed the most pros- percus year in its history. Official fig- ures compiled up to July 1 show exports and imports at a valuation in excegs of $105,000,000, an fnecrease of $23,000,000 over last year, and a gain of more than $13,000,000 over 1912, which had been the banner year. Exports for the last year exceeded $66,750,000, while imports were slightly less than $39,000,000. Of this trade the island shipped to the United States prod- ucts valued at almost $61,000,000 and in re- turn bought goods valued at $34,750,000. Out of the total trade of more than $105,000,000, more than $95,000,000 was with the United States. There was a balance of trade in the island’s favor of more than $27,000,000. During the 12 months ending with June, the sugar exports were 424.955 tons, Valued at $45,800,000. The average price of $108 a ton received for this sugar was the highest in the history of the indus- try. The island’s chief purchases from the United States were rice, valued at $5,- 600,000; flour, valued at approximately $2,000,000; hams and pickled pork, valued at $2,000,000. Approximately $1,000,000 was spent for automobiles. ORDER TO MAKE FRENCH FARM LAND INTERESTS THE VATICAN rope Has Under Consideration the /4.¢tion of Germany in Northern France, PARIS, Aug. 31.—The Vatican is con- sidering the action of Germany in com- pelling the inhabitants, of the north of lrance to work in the fields, according to a statement by Cardinal Gasparri, Papal Secretary of State, says the Rome correspondent of the Journal. The Car- dinal declined, however, to discuss the status of this subject. Questioned as to the possibility of the resumption of diplomatic relations between France and the Holy See, the Cardinal said the Vatican would be de- lighted by such an event but that all vould depend upon the French Govern- ment. Religious peace, he declared, will never be complete in France without a resumption of diplomatic relations with the Holy See. The Cardinal referred to the desire of the Pope for a peace which shall be just and durable without the oppressior: of any people and with regard to their aspirations.

Figures compiled by statisticians in the Comptroller’s office at the instance of a Post-Dispatch reporter disclose that the in salaries for city ployes in the last 10 years has been at a rate 10 per cent greater than the rate of increase in purely municipal revenues. It is pointed out that only a higher tax rate, recourse to additional licenses and fees, or the reduction of appropriations for public improvements can prevent this disparity between tin- come and expenditures for “persone! service,”’ unless city officials combine t» put a stop to further enlargement of the payrool. Chairman Rogers of the Efficiency Board in a Post-Dispatch interview recently called attention to the general increase in salaries. The _ statistics prepared from the Comptroller's records show that while municipal revenues in 1915-16 were 2% per cent greater than in 1907, the charge for salaries was 36% per cent larger than 10 years ago. At the same time, the expenditures for materiale, supplies and all other purposes in 1915- 16 were but 13% per cent higher than they were in 1907. Ratio Is Worked Out. The ratio of salaries to the gross reve- nues collected for municipal purposes has averaged 58.64 per cent for the dec- ade. The ratio of salaries to the.total of municipal expenses has averaged 71.98 per cent for the same period. Ex- pressed in another way, these figures in- dicate that for every dollar that was collected for municipal needs, nearly 59 cents on the average went to salaries, | and that “personal service’’ alone ab- sorbed 71.98 cents of every 10 cents spent in conducting municipal depart- ments. Included in Jhis compilation is merely the cost of maintaining strictly munici- pal activities, including the policing of the city. No account is taken either of the expenditures of the Recorder of Deeds, Election Commissioners, Coroner, increase em- ' | Collector, Circuit Courts, Sheriff, Circuit Clerk, ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH Board of Education and schools, Pablic Library or Art Museum. It is pointed out as notable that al- though the outlay for “materials, sup- plies and expenses” (including in the latter item appropriations for’ the city’s share in the cost of streets, sewers, buildings, etc.) has shown reductions in four of the ten years, there has been but one decrease in the amount of salaries paid annually in the same decade, and that was $3¢4,- $98.54, in 1910. In 1907 municipal revenues of all kinds totaled $10,113,156.35. In the same 12 months salaries aggregate: $5,714,018.11, or 56 per cent of the city’s income. In the fiscal year 1915-16, the revenues were %$12,769,- 889.56, and the salaries were $7,793,- $13.94, or more than 61 per cent of all the moneys collected. In 1907 the ra- tio of salaries to all other expenses was slightly more than 69 per cent. Last year salaries represented nearly 7S per cent of all the city’s expendi- tures. Increase This Vear. Additions to the municipal payroll thus far this vear exceed $50,000, due to recent increases for drivers of carbage wagons, janitors and other emploves. Mayor Kiel and Acting President Hall of the Beard of Aldermen, as members of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, have pledged themselves to vote for the adoption of the union scale for mechan- ics and laborers working for the city. This will increase the total of municipal Salaries by $268,000 a year. Mayor Kiel told a Post-Dispatch re- porter that. if the Roard of Aidermen passes a bill establishing the union scale for city employes an increase of 5 cents in the tax rate will be necessary to meet the demand. He explained that the mak- ers of the new charter provided that union wages should be paid to members of the various crafts employed by the city and that there will be no attempt to evade payment of the higher rate.

MEMPHIS MAY BE SAVED, 33 OF HE CREW ARE MISSING Most of Men, Who Were in Small Boat, Thought to Have Been Drowhed at San Domingo: WASHINGTON, Aug. 31.—Reporta to the Navy Department say 7 enlisted men are missing, most of them probably drowned, four are known to be dead two officers and six men seriously in- jured and 67 others hurt. as a result of the wrecking of the armored crviser Memphis by a hurricane in San Do- mingo City harbor. Most of the missing were in a smsli boat overturned by wind and waver while returning to the Memphis. It is believed by the Navy Department per- haps a dozen of these may yet be alive on shore and will be discovered by @ later muster. The missing men include Edgar A Rojlins, 7324 Flora boulevard, St. Lovis. and Fred M. Major, seaman, 314 Gias- gow avenue, St. Louis. A late report said the gunboat Castine had arrived at San Domingo City and that the tug Potomac was safe. The cause of the wreck has not yet been explained fully in messages from Rear Admiral Pond, in comriand at San Domingo, and an investigation will be started by navy officers soon. A mes- sage from Admiral Pond said: “Sea smooth. Memphis solidly ashore, eight feet out of water. Working party on board securing records and landiny stores. Crew quartered In town. Hos. pital facilities ample. From first indi cation of trouble untill ship struck, less than one hour.” The scout cruiser Salem was ordered to San Domingo to replace the wrecked vessel], which was Admiral Pond's flag ship. Karly reports from Admiral Pond wer taken by navy officials to indicate that the storm was of such force that it ereated a series of tidal waves which drove the Memphis across a lon. stretch of shallow water to her present resting place at th» foot of the rocky bluff upon which San Domingo Clits stands. Wrecking <ompanies will be asked to study the vessel's plight gn determine whether she may be saved. ——- The Poat- Dispatch is the only evening news. paper in St. l.owls that receives or publlapes news cathered by the Asrociated Presa EE gy an oe cee reese AL nd oe price SERVICE St Louisians who sta rales for Service and further oy rate reductions_as our number of customers increases, We have made net gains. during the so-called dull summer. season which assures us of reaching 75,000 customers soon, a net gain of over 1Q000 customers this year Now thal the vacation season is over we are going afler every St Louisian throy advertisements in the Press and per solicitetion, calli ing — .

TUG GOES TO BERMUDA TO RESCUE BLACKLISTED SHIP British Authorities Refused to Supply Food or Fuel to Norwegian Steamer. NORFOLK, Va., Aug. 31.—The tug W. S. Taylor steamed out of the Virginia Capes last Sunday to’ rescue the Nor- wegian steamer Bjornstjorne Bijorner- scn, which is helpless at Bermuda. She has no fuel, and as she is said to have carried cargoes for Americans who are on Great Britain’s blacklist, and as her owners are also blacklisted, the vessel was not permitted to refill her bunk- ers at Bermuda nor take on provisions. The steamer left Cette, France, early in August for Balitrnore. Encountering rough weather, she ran short of food as well as fuel, and put in at Bermuda Aug. 19, but the authorities, acting on advice from the British Government, re- fused to let her have supplies. There was considerable delay in get- ting word of her plight to her owners. Then an unsuccessful effort was made to get the British authorities to relent and at least permit the steamer to take on coal enough to take her to the nearest American port. Unless further com- plications with the British authorities arose the tug should be on the way to America with the steamer in tow. $6.0) paid for your old stove during September in exchange for one of our new A.

SENATOR STONE'S HALF-BROTHER GETS DIVORCE BY DEFAULT Testifies Disagreement Followed His Finding of Letters to Wife From Another Signed “Jim.” John S. Stone of 4101 Laclede avenue, a half-brother of United States Senator William J. Stone, this morning obtained a divorce by default in Judge Anderson's court from Olive J. Stone, his secon: wife, whom he married in Nevada, Mo.. Dec. 22, 194. He is a Pullman conductor on the Wabash between St. Louis and Kansas City. He testified that he and his wife ha‘ many disagreements after he found a letter addressed “‘My Dear Little Wife,’ and signed ‘“‘Jim.’”’ This was in 190s, he said, and was picked up by him from under the door where it had been placec by a letter carrier. He testiifed also that Mrs. Stone had a violent temper. The case decided today was Stone's second suit for divorce. A demurrer wae sustained to a former petition because it had failed to allege that “his condi- tion was intolerable.” The technical error was corrected in the second peti- tion. eee ee ~ a See us on our special low price offer on refrigerators and gas ranges.

Chinese Premier Asserts They Fired First Shots at Cheng-Chiatun, PEKIN, China, Aug. 31.—At a secret session of Parliament today Premier Tuan Chi Jui, replying to inquiries about the recent clash between Chinese and Japanese troops at Cheng-Chiatun in Eastern Mongolia, said the Japanese were the aggressors and fired the first shots. The Premier added he was doing his best to maintain the dignity of China In Much Overtime. In a letter published yesterday in the Post-Dispatch in the ‘“‘Letters From the Pecple”’ the worked employes of the railroads are column, a writer suggested that most poorly paid and most over- the clerical forces. “There are offices in the Railway Ex- Building,”’ the said, change writer will average about 50c per pair. “SUPPLY or SHOE NEEDS NOW” ff Button or lace, pat kid leathers; cloth styles our special price fo Ladies’ Fall Boots : §- inch models ;- $3.50 values; ent; dull and vici or kid tops; 15 r all styles, Chocolate Maraschino Cherries, QS in sD the difficulty. EE “where the lights never go out.” The clerks have more of a grievance than the trainmen ever had, the writer de- clared, and suggested that any eight- hour law enacted should be made applic- able to this class of employe as well as the trainmen. A Post-Dispatch reporter making in- quiries as to the salaries, conditions and general make-up of the clerical forces in the various railroad offices interviewed an assistant to a department head in one of the largest of the local offices, who in nfhe years of service has worked in almost every department in the of- fices and now draws a salary of $115 a month. Facts set forth by him follow: The average salary paid the clerks is about $65 a month. Sixty per cent of the men are more than 25 vears old and about 4 per cent are married and sup- port families on their meager salaries. Put in Much Overtime. In the general offices they are sup- posed to work eight hours a day, from 8 o'clock in the morning until 5 in the afternoon, but they are frequently called on to work overtime. Some of the roads pay the employes extra_wages for all overtime, but in most cases they are given money to pay for their suppers and no extra pay. In the auditing departments of the va- rious roads there are many men em- ployed at salaries not exceeding $75 a month, who have been on the same job Ht woes oh for 20 years or more. There is little or AY , re 5 Pe | nv chance of promotion in these depart- | ments and the employes’ only hope is fo- a salary increase. The salaries of the hundreds of clerks employed in each of the traffic depart- ments of the local offices range from $40 a month to $75 and there is virtually enly one position to which they can advance, that of chief clerk of the de- partment. There are men in these of- fices who have been in the service of one road for 30 years. Office boys, who must be over 15 years of age, are put to work in the various departments at $15 a month. - If they prove satisfactory after a year of service their salaries ane increased $5 a1 month. Sometimes they are given a second increase in salary before they ‘win promotion, usually after five or six years’ service, to the rark of clerk. When they attain this position they are paid $35 or $40 a month. If, after nine or ten years with the railroad they have succeeded in having their salaries increased to $55 or $60 a month they are considered quite suacessful by their fellow employes. Clerks in the operating departments of the various divisions of the railroads have the hardest existence of all rail- road employes. These men are paid from $3 &to $75 a month, the latter figure being that which a chief clerk in such an office receives, and they are required to work practi- cally seven days a week and are not paid for overtime. They work nearly every Sunday, start- ing work at the usual time, and work- ing right through the day, because the offices are all operated with a minimum force, due to the eagerness of the divi- sion superintendent to make a showing in small cost of operation for hig di- vision. Stenographers Have Advantage. “Office politics’’ plays a great part in the advancement of a railroad clerk and consequently the male stendgraph- ers in such offices have the best op- portunities to win promotions, due to the fact that they are in close touch with the department heads and have the opportunity of forming friendships with these men which may aid them in their struggles for advancement. The salaries of few of the employes of the railroad offices equal the wages of the brakemen, who are paid $3.75 a day, of 10 hours. The latter are also paid for all overtime, while the clerks receive extra pay for overtime in only rare instances. There is no labor organization among the clerks, but the employes of several roads have organized insurance so- cleties. An attempt to organize the railroad clerks about nine years ago resulted in all the employes of an of- fice in Omaha, where the scheme was tried out, being discharged. All plans for an organization were then aban- doned. —— ———— Bach Player With 24 Rolls of Music, Scarf and Bench.

As the writer did not happen to have suf- ficient courage in his convictions to sign his own mame there is no way of telling whether he was lying about being a milk wagon driver or not. .

The President has been conspicuously fair to the railroad brotherhoods. fundamental demand for an eight-hour day and failing to get this concession from the railroads is trying to have Congress enforce it by law. The union leaders maltreated the President when they sent out their strike order while negotiations were pending. To persist in the order when he is striving to obtain their prime object through legislation would be disgraceful. The railroad brotherhoods by a course of this kind would utterly forfeit the good will of the public. They would forfeit any claim for con- sideration for the President and Congress. They would wantonly lay upon the country unneces- sary hardships. They would give the railroads the whip handle. On the other hand, acquiescence in the desire of the President and Congress would show a de- cent respect for the Government and just re- gard for the public interests, The attitude of neither side can be justified. The railroads refused any concession on the the- ory that they could overcome the trainmen and move trains. Yet their first step is not to as- sure the public of continued service under their obligation as chartered public servants, but to put embargo on freight. They begin by punish- ing the public and warning it of greater punish- ment to come. They admit they do not expect to handle traffic. Under the circumstance there is but one course for the people to take. That is to protect them- selves through congregsional action. The strike is internal war more disastrous economically than such a war as we waged with Spain and more costly in actual money loss. The Ameri- can people should, through their Government, protect themselves against this internal war as they would against foreign war. They should insist that Congress immediately use all its pow- er necessary to stop the strike—to check the mad folly of the industrial belligerents. After that we can take care of the situation. Congress can with deliberation adopt legislation which safeguards the nation from similar conflicts. The one thing to do now is to avert the war. = = i. of ft the moving men strike, it will be cheaper to pay rent than to move. = = = eS POOR MR. HUGHES!

That august body, the American National Asso- ciation of Dancing Masters, in convention assem- bled at Chicago, has labored and brought forth a very tame invention in the “Two-two,” if we may judge by the description of the dance now pro- posed for the by no means tame dancing public of this turbulent nation. The “Two-two” is no more than one long step forward, a balance, and a short step forward and so on ad lib, or until the ukelele stops. It sounds as though it might have been invented by the Republican national conven- tion. If we must dance, why mince matters? Let us feet! To the American National Aasociation of in it?

STRIKE LOSSES. An offic‘al of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad is quoted as saying that the embargo, on perishable goods on account of the expectation of a strike would reduce the revenues of the road one-third. It is fair to assume that other rail- roads affected will suffer similar losses, What effect will the strike itself have on the revenues of the roads? If it reaches expectation the revenues will be negligible, without an equiva- lent reduction in expense. They must still main- tain their operating forces, plants and equipment. One of the reasons offered by the railroad presi- dents for refusing ‘to make any concessions was the increased cost of the eight-hour law. The presidents wailed about the loss of profits and the possible bankruptcy of the roads. Yet the terms offered by the President included the in- vestigation of the working of the eight-hour law and assurances of equitable adjustments, includ- ing rate increases to meet increased expenses. There will be no compensation for the revenue lost through a strike. The railroads will lose enormous revenues, possibly far more than the $100,000,000 they estimated to be the increased cost of operating under the original conditions sought by the trainmen. Stockholders of railroads will suffer irreparable losses and in the event of a long strike bankruptcy for some of the roads may follow. Both employers and employes will lose vast aggregate sums and then there will be a settle- ment forced by the suffering public, which will lose more than both combined. Industrial war is disastrous. Employers and employes, who refuse to listen to reason, pay the | { penalty of stubbornness. There is yet time to/- avert the trouble and avoid not only the losses, but the storm of public indignation which will fn the end dictate terms to both belligerents—terms that will please neither. ‘= = _— = ww SEX LINE IN MODESTY. At intervals, every summer, attempts are made by individuals, organizations, or public authori- ties, to compel women bathers to put on shoes and stockings. But no one ever hears of any attempts to compel men bathers to don these garments. At the municipal pools girls and women may go barefoot and bare-legged. The private pools have adopted the fashion also, though some of them' still have rules posted that women must wear stockings. Who originates these protests and why? Visit- ors to the municipal pools must admit that the women bathing there are both modest and ap- pear modest without stockings. Or if they do not, why do the men? Is there any sex line in mod- esty, or is this annual hubbub about women’s feet simply an evidence of the immodesty of those who start it? —_ ——— Le Le Lr ~~ Se THE PLAYGROUND FESTIVAL City playgrounds for children are a twentieth century innovation. And to their existence and popularity is largely due the fact that city chil- dren, on the average, enjoy as good health as those in the country. Some investigators in- sist that the city child is stronger and healthier than his country cousin. The annual Playground Festival, at Forest Park today, will be interesting and enjoyable, with its athletic events, its pantomime of the “Pied Piper of Hamelin” and other features. It will give thou- sands of children a splendid outing, and enable adult citizens to see what the playgrounds have done for the little-folks. Last year’s audience at the outdoor theater, where the “Pied Piper” is to be shown was over 21,000. With good weather this year’s attendance may exceed that figure. St. Louis’ young folks are rapidly becoming used to appearing in attractive plays and. entertain- ments, as public entertainers. The Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund League is training hundreds of them on these lines ever summer.. It is a branch of education that will give them self-confidence and wholesome sport. And the annual Play- ground Festival promises to be the most important event of each season’s children’s shows. = = Se The Dairymen’s League, representing 18,000 New York State milk producers, owning 190,000 cows, are getting ready to sel] thelr product di- rect to the city consumers. If a movement of this kind could be organized in Southern Mlinols and St. Louis County, {t would speedily settle the drivers’ strike, which has already lasted too long. = =] i i WHAT RUMANIA MIGHT Do. Between Nish and Pirot, in Servia, the line of the Berlin to Constantinople railway, opened with such eclat last January, lies within about seventy miles of the Rumanian frontier. If, crossing the Danube, a strong enough Rumanian force can penetrate as far as the railroad, it will be able to cut this direct communication between the Central Powers and Turkey. A Rumanian army, fighting its way towards the Berlin to Constantinople railroad, would be in Servian country and receive the aid and sym- pathies of the Servians. But, in order to begin its march, such an army must successfully sur. mount the great obstacle presented by the Dan- ube, which, at this part of its course, is wide and swift. And the country on the Servian side of the river is, at that point, a maze of rugged moun- tain gorges, through and across which the railroad was carried by the German engineers at enormous cost and labor. There are numerous bridges, cul verts and tunnels, some of Which the Servians destroyed last year, but which have been recon- structed. ae . a > ons : 7 ‘ | ’ ein the ele ee MISS M.—You do not what terials one into @ tub, cover would use suds, ru 4 brush with & perfectly ~ CURIOS.—We note that fessional cleansers pronounce disulphide will. necessary to traces of the stains.

Still, she could not help but become infected with the hilarious enthusiasm of her husband. They made a brief practice try-out of the machine and it ran very well. Ross, however, was saving himself for an event two days ahead. The Ross family and the Riggs folks and two other neighbors had been jointly invited to a function at Clear Lake, a summer re- sort 25 miles distant. For this occasion Ross had reserved all his ambition. He waited until the Riggs and the others had got started in their various ma- chines. Then Ross proudly, confidently wheeled into the road and speeded up. “Whis!’’ Mrs. Ross was half frightened at the flying progress, but duly excited ani smiled quite joyously. After all, there was something refreshing in passing two or three neighbors with a superiority of speed that must have nettled them. Zip! Edgar Ross laughed wunroartously.

The new Cubs, because thty are no longer the Bruins of the mennant-win- ining days, only Joe Tinker, manager of the club, and who never gets into the game, and Miner Brown, the veteran flinger, being left, will be the opponents for the Cardinals today in the first of a four-game series. The Bruins at present are traveling along in seventh aes, a full game behind the Robison ielders. Since the club was here last many new players have been added. Most im- portant among these is Larry Doyle, who came to the Bruins in the trade that sent Zimmerman to the Giants. Doyle has not played a game to date, as he wants an increase from Weegh- man over what his New York contract called for. He’s expected to get in the game here, though. Weeghman also cleaned the market of several promising minor league play- ers. *huck’’ Wortman, the shortstop from Kansas City, is supposed to have cost into five figures, while voe Kelly, was obtained from “Rowdy” Elliott was bought from Oakland of the Coast League. Another addition is Nick Car- ter, the right-hander from Indianapolis, who beat the Braves last Sunday, with five bingles. Carter was turned loose by Lee Fohl, boss of the Indians, last spring. Another Hornsby on Deck. Several other new faces, among them Hunter, an inflelder, and Jacobson; an outfielder, landed from the Giants, and Pechous, an inflelder from the Three- Eye League, are also with the club. Right now the Windy City scribes are “another Hornsby.” Some honor for St. Louis. Another is Sicking, an infielder from Norfolk, Va. Joe Tinker made all these changes after he had found that his Federal League champions of 1915 were not strong enough for the National, weak as it is this year. With these new players coming in Tinker has been forced to switch his battle front from day to day and the club has done none too well. East Shades the West. Although the Cardinals traveled at a .T27 pace against the Eastern clubs in the contests closed yesterday, the East had a slight shade on the West in the intersectional series, winning 29 games and losing 26. The Cardinals were the only Western club to finish above the .600 mark. Hugs’ men lost only one series, that to the Superbas, the League leaders making off with the odd tilt yesterday, 4—1. For the East, the Braves, after a bad start here, went at the fastest pace, finishing with 10—5, .667. The Superbas won nine out of 16, a .600 percentage. Pat Moran’s Phillies slipped badly in the recent clashes, losing the odd box-score in .18 aree. The figures: Indianapolis. WEST. CLUB. W. L.!| CLUB. W. L.

HE shifting fortunes of the contending armies engaged in storming Pennant Hill, in the American League, have left the fans in doubt. Through the smoke, they can only see that Boston is still in possessiozt, despite all assaults, with the end of all hostilities now close at hand. The loss of Foster and Barry af- fected the chances of the Red Sox in the future jgooks. Local speculators y have set Carrigan’s price now at $ to 2, whereas two days ago it was even money. On the other hand, tlhe Browns, from a 6 to 1 shot before Tuesday’s games, have been slashed to 3 to 1. The probable result of the can League race, as indicated betting, is as follews: meri- y the Pos. ub, Odds.

Anything. No. 8&—Philadelphia .. 6° 2 As to the Probabilities. HE situation for the rivals of Boston is desperate, if Carrigan can hold on until his cripples come around again. For example, St. Louis is 6 full games behind. If Boston BREAKS EVEN for the next 10 con- tests, the Browns will have to win 10 STRAIGHT victories to tie. Detroit and Chicago are in slightly better positions than the Browns, but the advantage is only trifling. Considering that the Browns have only 28 more games to play, and are 5 games behind now, they must gain an average of one full game for every six played, in or- der to defeat the Red Sox. . . * Here’s a Worse View of It. ORE disheartening still is the fact that if the Red Sox hold their own, or anything like it, in the West, they will face two rather easy series against New York and Phila- delphia, on the Bostonians’ home srounds at the wind-up of the s¢a- son. The three Philadelphia games, come last of all, should bu which won. Therefore, the Browns must be two games ahead of the Red Sox ON OCT. 1, to be sure of a pennant vic- tory. e In other words, before Oct, 1— the day the seasOn ends for the Brownse—Jones’ men Ought to make up 7 full games on Boston, and have but 28 games in which to do it. Is it asking toe much of the Browns to expect them to give the Red Sox ONE FULL GAME HANDICAP IN EVERY FOUR that remain te be played? a . The Case of Leonard. HE case of Hubert Leonard is an instance of surprising incon- sistency on the part of a truly great hurler. Tuesday the Browns knockcd Leonard out of the box, scoring two runs in one-third of an inning; the following day he held them to a@ no- hit, no-run game. Considering that for two years Leonard has been one of the greatest pitchers in the game, with remark- able low-average run records to nis credit, his eccentricity this season is unexplainable. Leonard nas been erratic a great part of the year. He has been used very frequently, egy | in the game once every other day during the past 30 days. This may have tende to throw him off his stride. Here are some of his reversals: July 20 he allowed 9 hits, 5 in one-third tunings against White Sox; Aug. 1, againat hard-hitting § Tige he hed three relief tnnin with- allowing a hit. Aug. 3 he beat St. Louis $—2, the height of their winning ak; but Aug. 7 the White Sox beat him with 8 hits end 5 runs in 5 innings he lasted. Aug. 16 he turned in and trimmed the White Sex; but two days later the same club ran him out of the box, making 5 rune tn 2 twe-thirds of an inntug. His record reeks with such rev oi- seals, What's the answer? It's out of our guessing range, Bo, | Mecarthy Chivalry in “Pro” Sport. T HERE is no chivalry and very little modesty in professional Sport. In the old days, if a knight had a little difficulty to adjust, and found his opponent had a hick on his jousting mitt, he’d scorn to muss up a foe who was at a disadvantage. He’d postpone it to 2 o’clock next week, or some suitable occasion. He Saw no glory in beating an invalid. In college or amateur sport a reg- ular guy postpones his match, if he finds his opponent is not fit to do himself justice. He, too, sees no mer- it in beating HALF an opponent. But in the good old baseball world, if your rival is spiked, breaks a bone, has a family misfortune or otherwise loses effectiveness, then is the proper time to ram him and batter him out of the running. And they laugh about it, too, and congratulate themselves on their good fortune in having such a “break.” Jumping on a cripple is an ev- eryday matter in the life of a baseball club. Im the nature of things, it can’t be helped. But it’s battle royal stuff, Bo; mot university class a-tall.

Barney nz on in Le f CHANEY INFERIOR BOXER, CHAMPION KILBANE. WRITES “Coming Bout Will Show Chal- lenger Has Been Over- rated,’’ He Declares. Johnny Kilbane, who in four years has never risked his championship title in a derby route contest, but who will meet George Chaney in a 15-round fight to a decision, Labor day, at Cedar Point, O., was in a championship letter-writing mood Tuesday. In an epistie to the Post-Dispatch, he expresses the opinion that Chaney won't do at all, and that he has been “overrated.”’ Following are some excerpts from the letter: “I have seen Chaney a number of times in action, and I consider him a good boy. Probably he is the best con- tender they could find to challenge for the crown. Nevertheless, I am con- vineed that he is overrated and will prove an inferior man, from a cham- pion’s viewpoint. “I hope that he will give the fans a run, and not crawl into a shell and cover up, while waiting for a chance to reach out a knockout wallop. I firmly believe he has a weak chin, and if he will box and fight in the open I will not only outpoint him, but will knock him out.’’ Sounds like Benny Kauff at his best. But there are a lot of others who figure that Chaney is a slugger pure and sim- ple and that he hasn’t a chance to get to Kilbane, who “eats up” opponents who carry the fight to him. Kilbane, in his letter, states that he will not have the slightest difficulty do- ing the weight of 122 pounds, ringside, for the contest. Welsh Also Confident. Freddie Welsh is even more confident than Kilbane. He has brought his wife from Los Angeles to attend this Labor day title bout! with Charley White. She will sit at ringside near the champion‘s corner, dispatches state. Welsh wrote the Post-Dispatch some time ago that White would NOT win, positively. Welsh maintains that a one- Style fighter such as he has found White to be, has no chance to win from him. He points to his previous matches with White to prove the fact. rhile White had the edge in their first meet- ing,, the second time they met Welsh gave him a terrific lacing in 10 rounds. In their own respective opinions, at least, neither world’s champion will be “risking” his title on Labor day. I. Mahl Will Be ° Worked.
