Then Sen- = £ator Underwood brought up the issue #- Over which the Senate is divided ‘by ia proposing as an amendment, the pro- vision of the discarded Senate bill that] propositions of the President pleased the the Interstate Commerce Comniission be herhoods and the other pleased the empowered to fix railway wages. > ‘Tailreads.t’ Over this amendment debate waged up the bill in detail Senator den, hands with residents.

He added: “The Mexican people are entitled to attempt their liberty from such influences, and so long as I have anything to do with the action of our great Government, I shall do every- thing in. my. power to prevent anyone standing in their way.” Hard Doctrine for Mexican Exploiters This, he declared, was a hard doctrine only for those “who wished to get something for themselves out of Mex- ico.” He said the men who overthrew “the unspeakable Huerta’ represented at least “the fierce passion of -recon- struction which Hes at the very heart of liberty; and so long,’ he continued, “as they represent, however imperfect- ly, such a struggle for deliverance, I am ready to serve their ends when I can. “Tt am more interested in the. fortunes of oppressed men and pitiful women and | action in the matter, “I say,” he cs- Serted, “that we are threatened with a national calamity and« are asked to legislate, but are not given an oOppor- tunity to determine whether or not we are legislating right. These men in éf- fect have said to us ‘We determine that you legislate or we will bring that cal- amity on the country.’ ”’ “I do not defend their declaration of a strike,”’ said Senator Cummins in re- ply, “and they must take the conssé- quences of that. I think they should have postponed that until a fair investi- gation could be made. They chose not to do so but they have not.asked Con- }g@ress for legislation. They have not attempted to direct this legislation. Condentns Order for Strike. “T leave it to his Democratic friends to eulogize what they believe to be the President's courage. At any rate he made a proposal; the railroad men ac- cepted it, and the raflroads rejected it. Then the brotherhoods, I think un- wisely, sent out the order for the strike, Which ‘I. think has stricken or- ganized labor the most serious biow it ever received... “But the President, having failed in mediation, came to Congress. I.am not criticising him for that. I think he carhe in a proper way. I think he ought to have come. He recormmended a pro- gram which was perfectly understand- able. He may have been courageous. I am not inclined to rob him of the credit but he must remember that one of the eight-hour bill by the House of Repre- sentatives and the prospect of its pas- sz- by the Senate tonight virtually have removed all danger of a strike at present, announced many desertions frrem the ranks of the brotherhoods in the Middle .. est and asserted that they hed sufficient men to operate trains in the event of a strike. | On soveral of the big Middle Western roads, general managers say, as high a: % per cent of the engineers and con- cuctors have given assurance that they will remain at work, even though the strike is put into effect. Raflroad passenger traffic through Chi- cago for the last two days has been Feavier than for many months, the large increase beirg attributed to anxiety of tourists to reach their homes w«.ore the time set for the strike. Constitutional lawyers attending the American Bar Association meeting here are divided in their opinions as to the ecnstitutionality of the eight-hour law. Selden P. Spencer of St. Louis, former member of the Executive Coun- cil, said: “The law-will be upheld with- out a doubt.” Fred W. Lehmann of St. Leuis, former president of the association; said: ‘If 1 were a legislator and pressure like this a exerted I would not vote for the ill.” “The constitutional feature involved 1: the taking @f property without due process of law,” said John Barton Payne of Chicafo. “The question is whether the forcing of 10 hours’ pay for eight hours’ work is a reasonable regulation or is taking from property owners with- cut due process of low what is their con- before the Interstate Commerce Comes mittee had been presented by an Assist- ant Attorney-General and a member of the United States Board of Mediation and Contiliation. Senator Newlands. said the President had seen the sectién. giving the Inter- state Commerce commission power to regulate wages. e Senator Underwood Gechae that the provision giving the commission author- ity over wages broadened the wage scale to 800,000 men instead of confin- ing it to 400,000. ‘his provides a permanent board of arbitration in this country for railroad ‘émployes,”” he said. “It affords labor an opportunity for its day--in-court. In the futuré it will not have to go with mailed fist to demand its rights.” Fayors 8-Houwr Bill Only. Objection to any actien other than the eight-hour legislation was voiced by Senator Simmons, who said he thought passage of the bill with the Interstate Commerce Commission wage-tixing pro- vision might lead to a strike and pass- age without it would certainly avert one. “These labor men,” said Senator Un- derwood in reply, “are men of intelli- gence and character and high standing. They might protest and seek to hold you and me responsible, bu: to say they would go and declare a strike because of this law is an indictment of their in- tegrity and inteHigence.

New York City has lost many dead and as many more crippled for life in the last three months by infantile paralysis. The Zeppelins, in 80 raids during 18 months, did not cost the whole British Isles so dear. New York was as unprepared as London to meet so strange and terfifying an enemy from out of the air. The cities lie equally helpless and open. There is no protection, no shield for either. England rose to meet the danger with all its or- ganized ingenuity—munitions commissions, anti- air-craft guns, aviation experts, coast — warning bells and Re 5 et New York meets its enemy with almost as com- plete an equipment—now. Just as our peace strat- egy board in St. Louis would be, if faced with such an enemy, New York’s was hampered at first by lack of money. That means lack of trained offi- cers in a Health Department as much as in an army or navy. You can no more make a trained epidemologist in a week then a trained command- er of an aviation corps. New York is in a state of siege. It is ready now, having lost hundreds of children, to give the health authorities full command. They cer- tainly are taking it. The health experts from over all the United States have been called to Washington to plan the campaign of defense. the railroad and Pullman ccr managers. The Pullmans, with their stuffed upholstery, are com- mon carriers of every kind of thing, and make an epidemic as much an interstate matter as rates on coal.

For some time past the farmers who furnish the milk for New York consumers have been threat- ening to strike unless they could get a better price for their product. They have been getting, from the city dealers, 344 cents a quart, and as low as 2% cents in the summer months, while the consumer has had to pay from 9 cents up. The figures are an indictment of the city dealers, who and falls on the earth in the form of rain. Its distribution is a horrible botch. Almost no mois- ture is available on great areas of the earth, others have too much of it, and still others have lots of it when it is not needed and almost none of it when it is needed. Fortunately for the continued reign of Providence, it is not responsible to humankind for what it does with the moisture, and nothing can be done to have the distribution of thik precious sub- stance conform in any systematic way to the needs of man. If some political party were responsible for the distribution of moisture, it would be better looked after, or the party would be recalled. Providence is not subject to the recall, and it can indulge in any kind of monkey business about rain that happens to. suit its tyrannical fancy. Moisture is necessary to crops, and when there is no moisture we do not have any crops. Thus, last year there was so much mois- ture that crops failed over great areas where for two prior years there were no crops because there was no moisture at all. This year there waS no moisture in the Mississippi Valley when corn needed it bady, and too much when corn scarcely needed it ‘at all.

Commissioner Dillon says: If the distributors balk, I am ready to ad- vertise for companies or capita] that will buy our milk and distribute it. The price our farmers are asking is an advance on present rates, but it does not yet quite cover cost. This is interesting to St. Louis milk consumers, dealers and to the producers who sunply this city. Our present trouble is with the dealers and their drivers. The experience in New York points to the nossibility of State or municipal contyol of the milk marketing and distribution, if disputes con- stantly cut down the supply or deprive the peo- ple of one of the necessaries of life.

The Philadelphia Women’s Society for Preven- tion of Cruelty to Animals takes issue with Chief McCrudden of the Housing and Sanitation Bu- reau on the question of cats carrying disease germs. The women deny that this has been proved by any competent authority. Unlike the dog, the cat has always had the reputation of being a clean anima!. That, of course, is because cats lick themselves vigorously, can hardly be called cleanly. Whatever germs And, as many disease germs are destroyed by the oar ea that fact is in the 17? teat the question whether or not the cat's titutes, crippled and straight, waiting their turns to stretch themselves on the operating table to give as many ounces of blood as the surgeon thinks they can spare; is one of the wonder sto- ries of this ‘““‘Bagdad on the Subway.” London or Berlin, New York or St. Louis, all we need is to know, we'll all do our bit. But why can’t we know before we lose thousands?

From the Philadelphia Record. Ordnance experts of the army are at work on designs for 42-centimetre and larger field howitz- ers. These huge guns are indespensatle adjuncts to any modern field army; the French and British are now employing huge naval guns, hastily adapted to transportation with field armies. The problem of mobility is the most difficult one con- nected with the use of these monsters of ordnance, If our roads are not adapted to their movements, then the guns will have to be adgpted to the roads. Guns of 16-inch or larger calibre trans- portable on rails only mighe do for employment as mobile coast defenses; but if they are to be considered real field guns they must be able to go wherever a field army can go. If the Austri- ans found means for moving their big Skoda lLowitzers over the bottomless roads of Poland and Galicia, American ordnance officers ought to te capable of doing as well or -etter. AMERICAN SYMPATHY From Paris La Libre Parole. Is not the fate of the world more closely linked with the fate of Verdun, the ftalian defensive maneuvers, the Russian offensive and the naval activities of the fleets than with the American Fresidentia] election? Moreover, to place the re- sponsabilit? of European destinies upon the sym- pathies of the. great American people is reposing in that people a great deal more than it expects from us. Is it not granting to the spectators of the greatest and most extensive drama.that ever was displayed in the field of history of ‘much more importance than to those who are taking a heroic part and who lay down their lives in the rmidst of it? But in spite of all this, we repeat, it is American sympathy for which we care the fur, before licking, is depositary of harmful most. ‘‘He refuses to look at a compass, Always taking his course from the stars, Never giving a whoop for the rumpus He is causing among the old tars Who once sailed when the ship was commanded By men from the G.

James Lewis Ma- cie Smithson, who bequeathed the funds for the founding of the institution, was a natural son of the third Duke of Northumberland. ” He was a distinguished. scientist and freethinking philosopher, and on his death in 1829 he’ left his fortune of about $590,000 to his nephew, with the proviso that if his heir died without issue the money was to go to the United States Government and to be used in estab- lishing an institution for the increase and diffusion of knowledge. His nephew died in 1835 without heirs and the property aecordingly came into possession of the Government. The in- stitution was formally organized on Aug. 8, 1846, and placed under the con- trol of a Board of Trustees, consisting of the President and Vice President of the United States, the Cabinet members, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and other officials. The Smithsonian Institution has played an important part in the scien- tific researches of the last half century, and its publications have added vast!ly to human knowledge. The remains of James Smithson, buried at Genoa, were brought to America in 194 and rein- terred on the institution’s grounds.

My time and attention have been so taken up with our dinner party and its tragic consequences that $I haven't thought of her for days, or of her husband's request that I wean her from the pernicious influence of a cer- tain East Indian philosopher. “My dear,’”’ she said, ‘“‘it’s long since I’ve seen you. And you know you agreed that night you dined with us to go with me and see the Rahdin. Don’t tell me you have an- other engagement this afternoon, for I want to call atyyour house and pick you up.” I remembered that I had given my word to try to disillusionize her. So I told her I would be ready at 2:30. We motored to a quiet brownstone house in the early eighties. A turbaned gentleman opened the door for us, and we were shown into a reception room of moderate size, where a dozen well- dressed women sat on divans raised but slightly from the floor. They were covered with soft black cloth, and all the pillows were. black, embroidered in gold. On a small white-covered divan in the center of the room the Rahdin sat, cross-legged. He did not look up at our entrance, but continued. a low, smooth chant. Presently I made out that he was speaking English, but curiously run together. As nearly as I can re- member, he ‘was sayipg something like this: “‘And—there—are—two—loves—a—higher —and—a-—lower. And—the—higher—love is—that—of—soul—for—soul. In—such— love—a—smile—is—the—most — perfect — caress. I—entreat—you—my-—sisters—for- get—that—you—are—flesh—forget— your— lesser—animal—natures—love—as — the — spirits—as—the—angels. Be—not — dis- couraged—if—those—you—love — refuse — to—follow—you. Walk—in—the — true-- path—and—in—the—end—they—will—come —after.”’ There was a lot more of it that ] can't remember, but the idea was the same throughout. Three braziers, burn- ing choky incense, were placed just be- hind the Rahdin, and the room was dimly lighted. The women seemed fair- ly to drink in his words. After about half an hour he stopped chanting and stood up. pered Mrs. the women were passing in a line be- fore him, each making a deep obeisance and receiving a white carnation from a basket suddenly and soundlessly pro- duced by a copper-colored servitor who stood at his master’s elbow. I followed Mrs. Soames. When I stood in front of the tall, brown, turbaned Rahdin a gleam came into his somber eyes. Lifting one hand, he _ touched gently my forehead, cheeks and chin. “To the new daughter, peace!” he said, gravely, presenting me with my carnation.

It has its ridiculous side, this rapt ad- miration felt by women of education and common sense for a man of another race and his philosophical moonshine. Yet I had no desire to laugh. For thought of the husbands of the well- dressed matrons whom I had seen in the Rahdin’s drawing room, for the mort part clean, honorable, hard-working Americans, who wanted simple, humin affection, who wanted real homes an‘ families. + The Rahdin was the snake destroying their Edens. Under the veil of intense Spiritualism, of pseudo-mysticism, he was advocating cold hearth fires and childless homes. He flattered the van- ity of the women who came to him vy tacitly assuming that they were purer and nobler beings than their husbands, and he undoubtedly stirred up domestic discord in scores of homes. ‘Meanwhile he was making a good living, for my eyes had not missed the gold piece which my companion had deposited on an unobtrusive plate in the entrance hall at the Rahdin’s house. . “Isn't he wonderful?’’ she repeated, a8 we waited for our tea. “He must have found you very psychic or he would never have touched you.” MV ognized.in me a new visitor, and that by unusual graciousness he hoped to insure my return. But I knew that to express such a belief would be tO antagonize Mrs: Soames. I realized that I must make. no false move if I Y private opinion was that he rec- her eyes. “It seems to me,”’ I ventured, “‘that while the Rahdin’s theories are beauti- fully expressed they are not exactly practical. I afm sure that In an Indian temple a statue of Buddha is most ef- fective, but to me it always looks out of place in a modern dining room. Just think, Mrs. Soames—if everybody be- lieved in the sort of. love the Rahdin recommends there would be no babies! “There wouldn't be any round, pink- and-white, squirming, laughing bits of humanity. There wouldn't be any little girls with half-socks and gay hair rib- bons. There wouldn’t be any sturdy, curty-haired boys, with their unénding questions and tkeir charming juvenile chivalry. The love of angels probably is a beautiful thing, but sometimes |] think even angels must be jealous of human parents who love each other and who love their children.”’ calm of Mrs. Soames’ face was Slightly disturbed. Her eves looked softer and brighter. Her mouth quiv- ered a bit as she started to answer me. Then, suddenly, the coldness returned. I followed her glance to the dancing floor, beside which our table was set.

(To be Continued.) - HE first discoverer of America, ac- T cording to a tradition firmly held by some superstitious Irishmen, was St. Brendan. Brendan lived in the sixth century, and, according to legend, fitted out a vessel and sailed westward in the hope of discovering an island sup- posed to contain the paradise once ten- anted by Adam and Eve. He was ac- companied by 14 monks, and the ship was ‘“‘victualled for seven years.”’ After sailing 40 days and 40 nights, they came to an island, where they found ‘‘a hall with tables spread with good meat and drink.’’ They then sailed on for a long time, and came to another island, ‘‘wherein were the whitest an.i greatest sheep they ever saw.’’ After stopping for a time they proceeded with the voyage and came to a third island, called ‘“‘the paradise of birds.’’ After wandering about for seven years, from island to island, St. Brendan and his monks returned to Ireland, where they astonished the natives by tales of the wonders they had seen. In spite of the wild and improbable features of this legend, it was for cen- turies accepted as truth, and the Span- ish Government sent out several expedi- tions in search of the Islands of St. Household Hints.

ONG, long ago, before the ‘white eG people knew much about the Ha- walian Islands and before any of them went to live there, a little boy lived on the island of Maui who gave his father and mother, and _ indeed everyone who knew him, a great deal of trouble. On the whole, he was not such a very bad little boy, but he had one dreadful fault. He would pull up all the young trees he possibly could. And you know in Hawaii all sorts of fruit upon which the people depend for food grows on the trees, and when the sun is very hot people are grateful for the shade of the tall palms and mangoes. But no sooner would this boy see that one of his neighbors had a new tree nicely rooted than some moonlight night he would go stealing out, and next morning the owner would wake up to see his poor tree lying on the ground beside the hole in which it had been planted. lage where he lived came to his father and said they were very sorry, but this bad business of tree pulling would have to end; he would have to send his son away from Maui.

Last winter at the Na- tional League meeting Ebbets introduced a new drafting system and it was adopt- ed by his mates. This new ruling gives the weaker clubs first choice at the lead- ing minor-league tossers. Ebbets has not stopped there, though. Recently he sent a letter to Gary Herr- mann, chairman of the national com- mission, urging him to have baseball’s highest court adopt his draft system, as he thinks it is a vital necessity. To date hothing has been done by the commis- sion. The drafting season this year is from Sept. 2 to 26. Under the Ebbets system, if more than one club has a draft in for the same tosser, then the club which stands low- est in the league has first choice and so In this way the strong- er clubs will have last choice and lose out on several players they might other- wise acquire. New Rule Hurts Framer. This may hurt Ebbets, as his team is leading the league at present, but he seems willing to take chances of losing Several promising players to make the eight clubs more equal in strength. President Britton announced some time ago that he probably would make no more purchases, but would rely on the draft to land some promising material to bolster up the Robison Fielders for the 1917 campaign. And under this new system the Cardinal owner stated he expected to land several tossers who have made good records in the minors. That Ebbets is one owner who is not trying to buy himself into a pennant has been clearly shown. When Jake Dau- bert was injured, Ebbets did not offer fabulous sums for another, but turned a trade with McGraw which brought Merkle to his club and sent McCarty, one of the hardest hitting catchers ‘in the majors today, to the Giants. If his plan is adopted by the commis- sion, it should prove a big help to the weak clubs in the A. L., as well as the National. Cubs End Season Here.

ROBISON FIELD O OK | FOR TODAY’S GAMES At Robison Field, this morning. it was stated that the grounds would be in shape | today’s b , oe ay at J Se ner the first game, | The Year’s Greatest Pitcher. O, Bo, you guessed wrong the very first time. The best pitcher of the season, according to today’s unofficial figures including last Wednes- day’s games, is NOT Grover Cleveland Alexander of the Phils. Grover has added the National League supremacy to his many previ- ous laurels. But we are constrained te think that N. L. glory is largely morning glory. Walter Johnson, despite the pre- vailing belief that he fs slipping, stands out as the greatest pitcher in the country. And this statement is made spite of the fact that Johnson has lost 16 games—more defeats than has been suffered by any other pitcher in either league, with three exceptions: Joe Bush and Elmer Myers of the Athletics; and Schneider of the Reds. The simple fact is this: That Jobanhen has won .27 games by himself, while the Washington team has lost 16 for him. In other words, all the slipping done has been by the senators, not by Johnson. What the F aioe ‘ani, IGURES rally to the support of Johnson, in the argument as to the pitching supremacy. In the first place, it must be considered that the American League is stronger than the National, in personnel. For example, the Braves’ strength consists largely of one inflelder and three pitchers, and yet the club is picked to win the N. L. pennant. Some of the older league’s clubs would be considered “jokes” in the American. Therefore it is not fair to Johnson to accept the figures comparing his work with Alexander’s, in the various depart- ments. Pitchers have weaker batting to face in the National. Nevertheless, even forgetting this, and ignoring the fact that Johnson is play- ing with a team that’s next to last, while Alexander is with a club that won the flag last year, and is in the hunt this season, Johnson still stands out. Here is the “dope’’: G W. le ‘IP ERA. SO. ..44 2 16 314 1.76 107 9 2984 1.40 126 worked harder Johnson Alexander. 35 26 Johnson thus has nd oftener, has won more games and as maintained his old str keout remacy than all rivals Alexander. factne weaker op 4 frome has a lower average of earned runs per game and has lost fewer contests, thanks to having a pennant winner supporting him If Johnson has lost something of his famous “fireball steam, he nevertheless still continues to be the outstanding pitching fig- ure this season. Many Good A. L. Hurlers. HE year has seen many good Amer- ican League pitchers develop, but fiber which has enabled them to pitch at the need of the manager and when the call was greatest. season has been Giant Killer Harry Co- veleskie, the Detroit southpaw, who has a record of 19 wins and 9 defeats, hav- ing worked in 276 innings and allowed an earned run average of 1.79. He has taken part in 37 games and has allowed only 54-passes this year. On the other hand, some surpris- ingly good pitchers in the league have lost world of games. Joe Bush and Myers of the Athictics have each lost 20; Eddie Plank, whose work at times has risen to the very acme of pitching excellence, has lost 12 games and won only 11; Jim Scott, support- ed by the heaviest artillery in the league, nevertheless lost 13 contests. Yet these men are all sterling pitch- ers. Any manager would take any one of them tn a hurry, too, if oppor- tunity presented itself. € If Mamaux Would Behave. NE of the sensations of the sea- son has been Al Mamaux, who has pitched himself into a 17 and 9 record, supported by a rank second division team—the Pirates. This hurler, it would seem, has the ear- marks of the truly great, if he could only make his eyes behave when he passes along the white way. He drew a recent suspension and came back with a threat to quit—a_ threat that was withdrawn when the cold gray dawn came around with the after- thought: ‘“‘Where can I’ make as much money as in baseball?’’ He’s young and the balance wheel is not yet in working order. When he set- tles to his task like a regular guy he should attract some attention among the League’s best. Batting Tells the Tale. ee at the mere figures, earned run averages, strikeouts, innings itched, etc., the National League hur}- ng staffs appear: to have about the Same amount of .Al~pitching’ talent as the American. -But when-#e turn to the batting averages of the two leagues we. find » Spec different again.

Earl H. Painter, recently appointed football coach at St. Louis University, announced yesterday that he would be assisted in his duties as gridiron leader at the Billiken institution by Arthur Zachritz and John Maguire, former foot- These two men were selected following a conference yesterday between Painter and Father Hermans, director of athletics of St. Louis U. Offers were tendered to them, and both accepted. The selection of Maguire and Zach- ritz insures that the management of ath- letics at the Grand avenue schog] will be based on the graduate system, as Painter is also a Billiken star of former days. Following the resignation of George Keogan, former athletic coach, St. Louis alumni came out strongly for this system. Efforts were made to land Leo Higley, known as one of the best linesmen of a blue and white squad in recent vears. Painter wanted Higley to tutor his lines- men, but the latter was unable to take up duties until late in the season. He assured the new chief, however, that he will be here by Nov. 1 and will lend W helping hand. Coaches All Backfield Men. Zachritz and Maguire are both back- field men, the former a brilliant half- back, picked as the star of the city, while Maguire was the best quarterback that directed a Billiken eleven since the days of Ray Dockery. One of the two will act as freshman coach, while the other will be varsity assistant. As Paint- er, himself, was a halfback, but will take active charge of the linemen. Letters have been sent to members of the squad to report on Sept. 18. This will give three weeks’ preliminary work- outs before the first game, which is scheduled with the Cape Girardeau Nor- mals for Oct. 7. No gridiron has yet been rented for the season, but it is probable that either Sportsman’s Park or Robison Field will be the home of the Billikens this fall. Johnny Kern to Box Kid Groves The feature of tonight's boxing show at the Queensberry A.

Church conquered Maurice E. McLoughlin in four sets yester- day. The clash of the new exponent of the “California lawn tennis” in the East and the famous “Comet” of the Pacific Coast, contributed the chief engagement of the fourth round of the national championship tourna- ment on the turf of the West Side Tennis Club at Forest Hills. From the opening service to the close, Church, except for brief spurts on the part of his* opponent, held the whip hand. The score was 5—7, 6—1, 6—2, 6—3. Those who sat abowvt the court saw McLoughlin go down to defeat in a round before the final of the present premier American tournament for the first time since he won the crown and donned the purple of the courts in 1913. In every other year he has stood in the finals. Church, with a style that is peculiarly his own, not only mastered his op- ponent, but he accomplished what has been regarded as impossible by many, with scarcely one to cheer him on in the big crowd. His astounding recovery, especially from his back hand, hardly proval. When he took the initiative with daring execution, to shake Mc- Loughlin up in their encounters at the net, the applause was all for the “‘Comet.”’ Crowd Was ‘For’? McLoughlin. To overwhelm the favorite—and noth- ing short of that must be accredited to Church—stands as a monumental achievement. The psychology of the sit- brought a responsive murmur of ap-| | ‘Comet’ Mc Lou ghlin fh Hi Com pletely Burned ( Church and Murray to Meet in Feature Mat of Today’s FOREST HILLS, N. ¥., F the weather does ne
