Forty retail milk wagons, without at- tendant policemen, wers sent out this ‘morning by the Grafeman Dairy Co. following the signing of its agreement with the Milk Wagon Drivers’ Unioa yesterday afternoon, 29 days after the beginning of the drivers’ strike and lockout. Harry the Norman, secretary of ‘urielf va the paper. which was drawn in a conference of union officials and the Grafeman management at the Marquette Hotel. He also showed a clause of the agreement which stipuiat- ed that it should be in force from to- day until Sept. 1, 1917. He would not make known the weekly wages and rate of commission agreed on, but said that no driver would make less than Av made before the strike. The commis- iglon is on all sales, the old point sys- ‘tem having been abandoned. It was learned that the Grafeman men. in going back to work, were not told the pay they would receive, but were told only that a settlement satis- factory to the union officials had been made. The union is trying to keep the [wege part of the agreement a seiret } from the other dalries. Tne Grateman company is the first | of the “big four” dairies to reach a settlement with its drivers. The strik- ing drivers of the other companies wer- | elated over the Grafeman separate peace’’ agreement, and predicted that, with one large company filling the pub- lic demand for milk delivery, the three other firms of the big four’’ would find it impessible to hold out against the men's demands. Five smaller firms are lalso involved in the strike. | J. F. Cabanne, of the St. Louis Dairy [Co, said wrafeman’s action would have no effect on thre other dairies) He said the Jersey Farm Dairy Co. had not ‘joined with the others in locking out the unton men, and that this fact had naa no perceptible influence on the sit- | uation. | The Grafeman Co. normally employs about 90 drivers, and it ia said that the i full number will be at work in a day or two. The policemen who have been on duty at the ed further, and six of them were sen‘ to the St. Louis Dairy Co. in answer t. a complaint from Capanne, who said the strikers were interfering unluwfuily with that company’s effort to restore milk delivery in the West End. Cabanne said his route superintenden: John Schmittel of 4309 Prairie avenue, who has been driving a retail wagon lately, was beaten when he left his home this morning, but that he proceeded t9 work, with a discolored right eye, and took out his wagon. Manager Thornton of the Union Dair; Co., said Grafeman’s action would not affect the other dairies, and that his de- fection had been expected some time before.

SCHEDULE NEARLY KEPT UP ? * Four Thousand Policemen Put on Strike Duty and There Is Little Disturbance. — NEW YORK, Sept. 7.—A strike was begun on the subway and elevated lines of the Interborough Rapid Transit Co. and several surface systems today, but up to noon the. city appeared only slightly inconvenienced. Union leaders, who demand abroga- jtion by the Interborough company of the so-called master and servant” con- ; tracts binding the employes not to ask ; Wage increases for two years, said that 900 men had walked outP including 000 Traction officiais asserted not than 2000 men had quit and that with the aid of strikebreakers the company was maintaining normal schedules on | subway and L.“ The green car“ system operated by the New. York Railways Co. was chiefly involved, apparently not more than 0 per cent of these surface cars running. Except in Manhattan and the Bronx boroughs no railway lines were affected. Signing Individual Contracts. The New York Railways Co. an- nounced that its recent agreements. with its employes were abrogate. -ffective today, and that the work had been be- gun of signing individual contracts. The Interborough announced that its men who did not strike will receive double pay until further notice. Throughout the districts involved little disorder was reported, although in Har- lem and on the Bast Side there were a few minor disturbances. About 400 pa- trolmen in uniform and plain clothes were on duty to guard property and pro- tect passengers on cars and at stations. Meanwhile traction officials, admit- ting that “the gravity of the situatian is such that at moment a crisis may arise, were providing stocks of provi- sicns for the strike breakers, many of whom have come from other cities. Several instances of elevated trains being bombarded with stones and bot- tles thrown from roofs were reported to the police shortly before 9 o'clock. Reserves rushed to the svenes of dis- order, entered the buildings and chased from the roofs gangs of men said to have been seen carrying missiles. The union employes of the Interbor- ough company voted to strike at 9:30 last night and several thousand union men immediately scattered through the city in an attempt to win over all street car employes to their cause. Little of the strike was noticeable during the night. One elevated train was bombarded with brickbats. The passengers were taken off and the train sent back empty to the terminals with broken windows. About midnight several hundred men, many of whom wore the union button, crowd-: ed into the subway at the Grand Central Railway station and induced all the ticket choppers and platform guards to leave their posts. The company quickly filled their places. The Public Service Commission has started a gener! investigation of «he strike and have subpenaed the presi- dent and general manager of the Inter- borough company and officers of the em- ployes’ unions to appear before the cm- mission this morning. President Shonts of the Interborough issued a statement declaring the com- pany would fight the union to a finish.” Oscar 8. Straus, chairman of the Pub- lic Service Commission, at a conference yesterday with representatives of the union requested that the strike be held up pending another attempt by himself and Mayor Mitchel to settle the trouble, The labor leaders declined. Union leaders declare many workers were discharged because they refused to take off their union badges. 4000 Strike- Breakers Ready. Interborough car barns gave the ap- pearance of barracks. Approximately 4000 men have been housed and fed in preparation for the strike order. Most of the men were hired by strike-breaking agencies at the time of the railroad emergency and were taken over by the Interborough. In response to a tele- gram from Shonts, James T. Waddell left Chicago last night for New York in a special train to take charge of the strike. Waddell, a strike-breaking con- tractor, has nearly 6000 strike-breakers ready to man cars, he said.

Almost. every one of the stolen ma- chines were taken from the vicinity of Grand avenue and Juniata street, where they had been parked while the owners attended picture shows in that neigh- borhood. Because of the almost nightly theft of a machine from this vicinity, special officers. had been working for days in an effort to trap the joyriders. So many inquiries were made in the neighborhood of Grand and Juniata that it was generally known in that vicinity that the police were on the case.

JAPANESE LIKE GARY’S SPEECH TOKIO, Sept. 7.—Expressions of sat- isfaction regarding the speech of El- bert H. Gary last Tuesday night äre voiced by the press. It is evident here that Japan is deeply interested in the nature of the United States general pol- icy toward China, more particularly whether the Government would support the participation of American capital- ists in the five Powers’ reorganization loan. Tokio has the impression that Wash- ington is undecided. The Times fears the existence of efforts to convince Americans that the United States has an enemy in Japan regarding China. It insists that there is no desire to shut out American enterprises. Rioter Rejected as Citizen.

WHAT DYSPEPTICS SHOULD EAT A PHYSICIAN’S ADVICE, “Indigestion and practically all forms of stomach trouble are, nine times out of ten, due to acidity; therefore stomach sufferers should, whenever possible, avoid eating food that is acid in its na- ture, or which by chemical action in the stomach develops acidity Unfortunately, euch a rule eliminates most foods whicn are pleasant to the taste as well as these which are rich in blood, flesh and nerve building properties.

Twenty thousand ballots printed for he primary election In Bast St. Louis ext Wednesday will be reprinted as a result of a conference this morning of A. T. Spivey, publisher of an East St. Louis Republican newspaper, and Dan- jel Wuersch, secretary of the Board of E.lection Commissioners. The conference followed an investi- gation by a Post-Dispatch reporter of the reason why the name of William A. Schwartztrauber, one of five can- didates for the Republican nomination for the Législature, was printed on the ballots in heavy black type, distinguish- ing it above the names of the four other candidates which are printed in much lighter type. Wuersch and Spivey said after the conference that Spivey had agreed to reprint the ballots at his own expense. Wuersch, Spivey and Schwartztrauber are adherents of the Rodenberg politi- cal organization on the East Side. When sample ballots were issued it was found that the distinction had been given Ida Gill, -Schwartztrauber. Wuersch explained that Spivey couid not get Schwartztrauber’s name printed in the same type as the others. How- ever, he will manage to do it now. The other candidates for the nom- ination are James W. Rentschler, Rob- ert M. Smith,“ Charles F. Short and John T. Wood. Three are to be nom- inated, and the voter may ballot for three, or he may cast three votes for one by placing his mark before only one name.

WOMEN SHOULD Ef THIS HABIT Ad WELL AS THE MEN Don’t eat bite of breakfast until you drink a glass of hot water. Happy, bright, alert—vigorous and vivacious—a good clear skin; a nat- ural, rosy complexion and freedom from illmess are assured only by clean, healthy blood. If only every woman and likewise every man could realize the wonders of the morning inside bath, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of the thousands of sickly, anaemic-looking men women ‘and girls with pasty or muddy complex- ions; instead of the multitudes of “nerve wrecks,” “rundowns,” “brain fags” and pessimists we should see a virile, optimistic throng of rosy- cheeked people everywhere. An inside bath is had by drinking, each morning before breakfast a glass of real hot water with a tea- / spoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the indigestible waste, sour fermentations and poi- sons, thus cleansing, sweetening and freshening the entire ailmentary | canal before putting more food into the stomach..

The conference also abandoned the Chamberlain amendment to prohibit ad- mission of Pacific Ocean salmon or hal- wut through a foreign country except in bond from an American port. This, 44 was decided, might develop commer- cial war with Canada, and bring about retaliation against American Atlantic coast fisheries. | Other Senate amendments clothing the President with retaliatory power against interferences. with American commerce and embargoes on American goods to foreign nations were agreed to. They have the sanction of the State De partment, while the Phelan amendment did not. The conference then approached the wine taxes and dyestuff tariff which became the principal stumbling blocks. Majority Leader Kitchin moved to strike out the Senate amendments increasing the duties on coal tar, medicinal deriva- tives and flavoring extracts. There was no fight, however, on the increases in the rates on intermediate and finished dyestuffs. Tariff Board Provision. The conference eliminated the $300,000 continuing appropriation for the Tariff Commission. Three hundred thousand dollars was retained for 1917, but as the bill now stands the appropriation for future years was eliminated. The House managers yielded the de- mand for restoration of the tax on cop- per when the Senate conferees threw out the stamp taxes. The income, inheritance and corpora- tion stock taxes as fixed in the Senate bill were approved. N Sacrifice of the proposed stamp taxes fets the revenue bill back in accord with the original determination of the ays and Means Committee to repeal al of those provisions in the existing war revenue law which were regarded at annoyances by the public.

LONDON, Sept. 7.—Commenting on the amendment to the revenue bill passed by the United States Senate Tuesday night. empowering the President to re- taliate against interference with Amer- lean commerce, the Manchester Guard- jan says that, although those who see à special virtue on the eve of election may be right, “nevertheless, we should do well to note two things: “First—These reprisals are directed against the allies and primarily against ourselves; second, they are popular in America.“ The Guardian considers it is not gen- erally realized here how strong a sen- timent has been aroused throughout the United States by the blacklist policy and interference with mails, and asks it the Foreign Office is convinced these practices of ours are so useful as to counterbalance the weakening of Ameri- can sympathy they involve, or that they cannot be modified so as to meet American objections. without seriously impairing any utilities they may have for ourselves.” BERMAN CHANCELLOR QUOTED AS BELITTLING SUBMARINE Reported to Have Said Continued Use Would Cause War With U.

PASSES BILL TO PRESERVE INDIAN CEMETERY Descendant of Wyandotte Chief Has Made Long Fight Against Desecration of Plot. WASHINGTON, Sept, 7.—A bill ap- propriating $10,000 for the care and pres- ervation of the Wyandotte Indtan Ceme- tery in Kansas City, Kan., was passed today by the Senate. The appropriation follows the con- gressional action in revoking an act au- thorizing the sale of the grounds more than six years ago, which action termi- nated the fight of Lydia, Ida and Hel- ena Conley, sisters and descendants of a Wyandotte tribal chief, to preserve the burial grounds of their ancestors. Lydia Conley studied law and passed a bar examination for the express pur- pose of appearing before the Supreme Court of the United States in her fight. She lost her case there and returned to Kansas City, where, with her two sis- ters, she erected a fort in the center of the old burial grounds and advised the people of the city and the Government authorities that they were prepared to defend the plot against desecration with their lives. The Government gäve the Wyandottes the buria] grounds in 1855 when a treaty was made with the tribe. Their deed said So long as the grass grows and water runs, this spot shall be used as a burial ground for the Wyandotte In- dians.“ The property has greatly increased in value and was wanted both for commer- cial and park purposes. The Government was offered $75,000 for it by the Kansas City interests which sought it. * — For Catarrhal Deafness and Head Noises Here in America there Is much suffer- ing from catarrh and head noises.

The Barcelona correspondent of the Journal says Germans are implicated.” At the State Department in Washing- ton it was said no information had been received in regard to any attack upon or menace to the cruiser Des Moines. * Dreadnought Nevada Accepted.

J., tomorrow. For the first time since Mr. Wilson became Presi- dent, a complete staff of secretaries, clerks, telegraphers and other attaches will accompany him on his vacation, For the last three summers he has spent a short -period at Cornish, N. H., but then he took only his personal! stenogra- pher with him. Although President Wilson plans io spend most of his time at Shadow Lawn, the estate at Long Branch, N. J., he will go to Asbury Park as often as necessary to visit the executive offices and attend to public service. A suite has been engaged in an office bujiding there and office furniture from the White House has been shipped there. Will Receive Politicians. The President will receive many of his political visitors at Shadow Lawn, and the broad porch from which he deliv- ered his speech of acceptance is expect- ed to be the scene of frequent recep- tions to delegations of Democrats from different states. Because of Mr. Wil- son’s devision to make only a few po- litical addresses away from Shadow Lawn, his campaign speeches will be made for the most part from the front porch. Shadow Lawn, so named because of the 60 acres of beautiful lawns which sur- round the magnificent house, is an es- tate entirely surrounded by hedges and shut in by trees about.a mile from the station of West End. The garage is al- most as large as the White House. The House is within walking distance of the ocean. Guests at Shadow Lawn. President Wilson will have with him during his stay at Shadow Lawn, Mrs. Wilson, Miss Helen Woodrow Bones, his cousin, the Misses Lucy and Mary Smith of New Orleans, also cousins, and Dr. Cary T. Grayson, the White House physician, and Mrs. Grayson. Secretary Tumulty has a cottage at Asbury Park, near the executive offices. Secretary and Mrs. McAdoo, who have a cottage at Spring Lake, only a few miles away, will be frequent visitors. The President will depart tomorrow afternoon for Atlantic City, where he will speak at night before the conven- tion of the National American Women Suffrage Association. He will go Satur- ‘day by motor to Shadow Lawn to re- main until Sept. 20, when he goes to St. Louis to speak at a convention of under- writers. $5.50 DETROIT AND RETURN Sept. 8 and 9, via Clover Leaf Route.

LONDON, Sept. 7.—The following little story of the front trenches is contained in a letter from a British soldier serving in France: “The Saxons used to have a chap with them named Paul, who had a lovely voice and use to sing all the latest songs. He was easily heard in our front trenches, and his songs were enjoyed by our fellows as well as the Germans. One day when things were quiet there was no singing, and one of our men called to the Germans, Tell Paul to sing.’ „Back came the answer, preceded by a string of German curses: ‘You chuted Paul yesterday.“ Famous Cruiser to Go for Junk, PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 7.—The United States cruiser Boston, of the famous white squadron at the battle of Manila Bay, is to be sold to the highest bidder for junk, it was de- cided yesterday. This Year Is The One Hundredth Anniversary of the founding of the first Savings Bank in the United States. The first charter was granted in 1816, on December 13, to a bank in Boston. It was a period in American history when a wise prudence in saving and spending prevailed. Now, in 1916, the biggest economic need is to save money. Aside from the personal benefits derived from the practice of thrift, the people of America can render no greater service than by conserving a portion of their income. The ever increasing de- mand for capital to develop our regourees must, to a large degree, be supplied through these The growth of thegnation depends largely upon the thrift of her people. channels.

Baker of Webster Groves, confessed arson promoter and State’s witness in the arson prosecu- tions, and “Little Georgie” Williams, former city detective, were two of eight persons arrested between 2:39 and 3 o'clock this morning, following an affray in the notorious Typo Press Club, 712 Pine street. The others arrested were a man and woman who were with Baker, and who said they were Arthur M. Watting, a real estate dealer of Web- ster Groves, and Rose May Bilzing, 24 years old, of 3919 Olive street; two women with Wiliiams, who said they were Lily Roberts, 21, of 4227 Delmar boulevard, and Marie Jennings, 21, of 3500 Morgan street; and the man- ager of the club and his helper, Mace Brown and Ben White. Williams and the two women with him were arrested as they were run- ning away from the club. At the same time, the policemen heard a rumor that a woman had been, shot at the club. Inquiry did not show that any- one had been shot, and Miss Bilzing was the only one known to have beer in the place who said that a shot had been fired. Baker said he heard no shot, but that bottles and glasses were thrown. Baker and his two com- panions were arrested When they called at police headquarters, in an automobile, to ifquire whether any of their friends had been arrested. TWO-THIRDS OF SENATE SAID TO FAVOR ISLANDS PURCHASE Administration Leaders Hope for Rat- ification of Treaty With Denmark at Present Session. WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.—Administra- tion Senators have hope of ratifying at this session of Congress the treaty to purchase the Danish West Indies for $25,000,000. After several hours’ discus- sion in executive session yesterday there were clear indications that more than two-thirds of the Senators favored the purchase. Another executive session will be held late today to discuss tne treaty. Senator Stone, chairman of the For- eign Relations Committee, asked for a vote last night, but yielded when in- formed that Senators Borah and Cum- mins, who were absent, desired to dis- cuss the treaty before any vote was taken. A few Senators, including Sen- ators Norris, Nelson and Thomas, said they thought the price to be paid was too high. Senator Nelson, however, said he thought the price ought not to pre- vent the purchose. Among Republican Senators who urged ratification of the treaty was Senator Penrose. Political parties in Denmaark are try- ing to arrange for a vote by the peopre on the proposa! to sell the islands to the United States. HUGHES SCHEDULED TO SPEAK IN EAST Sf.

STIX FUNERAL Many Persons Have to Stand ad Street; Stores Close for Half an Hour. At the public funeral services for Charles A. Stix, president of the Stix, Baer & Fuller Dry Goods Co., held this morning at Temple Israel, King’s high- way and Washington boulevard, the crowd was so large that several hun- dred persons had to stand in the streets. The 1500 seats in the temple were filled and the aisles were packed. Men, woin- en and children, in all walks of life, were there. Department stores were closed for a half hour, from 10 to 10:30 a. m., in honor of Mr. Stix. During the same time work was stopped in all factories which are members of the St. Louis Gar- ment Manufacturers’ Association. Mr. Stix's store, the Grand Leader, was closed for the day. In the funeral sermon Rabbi Leon Harrison said that one of the biggest tributes to Mr. Stix was the fact that there were more Catholics and Protest- ants than Jews in the temple for the services. Rabib Harrison continued: “The heart of Israel, that ancient mother, grieves for this noble son who has passed into the silence, and Israel points to him as he lies asleep now be- fore you all, and says to the countless rien of many faiths, ‘Behold the Jew, the true Jew. Behold the man who built temples for his people’s workshop. Behold the man whose generous hand built hospitals and orphanages and schools. Behold the lover of humanity, doing justice, loving mercy, and walk- ing humbly with God. Gave to All Churches. There was no limitation of race or creed to the abundant help that flowed from these generous hands. No church was denied, and no charity—of Catholic or Protestant, as well as of their own people. The good Catholic priest’s home for the friendless, with no other refuyze in the world, the home for the little lads of the street, came to him, and never in vain. Indeed, he came to them. There was never a holiday season when he did not gather up a great collection of toys and send them out to the little orphan boys and girls that had no fa- ther or mother to rember them. But our friend thought of them when all the world was gay and so many were for- getful of their little brothers and sis- ters that had no one to help them. J think that Father Dempsey and Father Dunn and the Protestant pastors of the Lutheran Orphanage and many other Houses of Mercy will say ‘Amen’ to these words of a Jewish rabbi, spoken over one of his own people. “But success to him, money, power. was simply an instrument, a staff in his hand as in the hands of Moses of old, an emblem of leadership and serv- ice. With these powers and faculties that were his, he served his city loyal- ly. He led great civic movements. He illustrated in a high degree the local patriotism that we all so sorely need. For he loved the city in which his life was spent. He did his utmost for its government, for civic beauty, for mu- sic and the drama, for all the great agencies that make for culture.“ Every Rabbi in City There. Every rabbi in the city, wehther or- thodox or reformed church, was at the funeral. There was a profusion of flowers in the temple, and the interior walls were draped in black. Mr. Stix’s pew was empty, but it was draped in black and covered with flowers. Hundreds of Grand-Leader employes were at the funeral and a blanket of orchids and lilies, given by them, cov- ered the casket. At the head was 1 NEW U. S.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Sept. 7.—Dr. George B. Young, Government expert on health and sanitation, who has been investigating the Kansas City Health Department, has made a preliminary report to the Hospita! and Health Board, ir. which he says: “Kansas City really has no Health De- partment, and so far as I can gather, never has had one except for a brief period. There can be no doubt that political considerations have in the past had a great deal too much to do with department affairs. One especial man- ifestation of this is the fact that the member of your board representing the minority party has as a rule not been expected to take an active part in the work of the board.“ POLICE GET “POISON PEN” CLEW Chicago Detectives Believe Author Is Woman Released From A lum.

Su- CAMPAIGN POLICY Mrs. Catt Presents New Resolu- tion to Indorse Move for Federal Legislation. — ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept. 7.—Del- egates to the annual convention of the National Americar Women Suffrage As- scciation had another debate today on the method of conducting its campaign in the future. It was thought this ques- tion was settled yesterday when the as- sociation voted to continue its present policy of pressing both national and State legislation to bring about woman suffrage, but just before adjournment Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, president, offered a resolution interpreting that article of the association’s constitution which pledges auxiliaries to secure votes for women by national and state legis- letion to mean that the Federal amend- ment is the immediate and principal aim and that efforts, whether by legislature or referendum, are only preparatory to that end. The presentation of this resolution caused a stir among delegates favoring states rights and only the adoption of a m6tion making the consideration of the resolution a special order for today shut off debate. Miss Laura Clay of Ken- tucky is bitterly opposed to the Catt resolution and declared she would take the floor against it. Administration leaders in the association said they ex- pected the resolution to be adopted. Mrs. Catt in her annual address today pictured the suffrage movement as having reached a crisis which means that The Women’s Hour Has Struck!“ Earnest- ly, she exhorted the women not to lose heart, but to recognize the present op- portunity which, if seized with vigor. enthusiasm and will, means the final victory Of our great cause in the very near future.“ To my mind,” she said, the insist- ence of the enfranchisement of the women of our land by Federal amend- ment, is the only self-respecting course to pursue.“ Mrs. Catt reviewed the fight for suf- frage in many states and the obstacles it had met from the liquor interests, and charged there had been widespread resort to illegal practices to defeat suf frage, whereas in a majority of the States of the Union—in 25 of them—there was no provision made by law for any form of contest or recount on a referen- dum. Political cofrupters may, in these states, bribe voters, colonize vot- ers and repeat them to their heart’; content and redress of any kind is prac- tically impossible.“ Majority for Strict Neutrality. Virtually all the speakers yesterday declared for strict neutrality in the presidential campaign and to continue the nonpartisan efforts of the associa- tion to bring about equal suffrage throughout the United States. The question of policy came before the convention in the form of two proposed amendments to the organization’s con- stitution. One proposed that the asso- ciation drop work on state legislation end concentrate on the proposed amend- ment to the Federal Constitution. The other provided that the association cease its efforts in behalf of the Federal amendment and confine its activities to getting woman’s suffrage by states. The amendments were defeated by a viva voce vote in which few affirmative voices were heard. Then Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, president of the asso- ciation, presented the following resolu- tion: „That the forty-eighth annual con- vention of the National Suffrage Asso- ciation interpreted article 2 of the con- stitution, which pledges our auxiliaries to secure the vote for women by appro- priate national and state action, as meaning that the Federal amendment is our immediate and principal aim; and that all state campaigns, whether legis- lative or referendum, are preparatory to this end.“ Miss Clay immediately attacked the resolution as undemocratic and ‘as nul- lifying the action just taken by the convention. Mrs. Catt opened yesterday's discus- sion and amused the delegates by stat- ing that Charles E. Hughes, the Repub- lican presidential nominee, had told her that the Republican platform came near- er to what the suffragists want than that of the Democratic party and that on the other hand, President Wilson told her the Democratic platform was nearer to woman suffrage than tpe Re- publican platform. didates Ahead of Parties. die said both presidential candidates were far ahead of their respective par- ties in their views on the suffrage ques- tion. Delegates from Missouri, Colorado, Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Alabama, Mas- sachusetts, Virginia, Llinois, Arkansas, New York, Tennessee, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, West Vir- ginia, Maryland and Florida oke in ta vor of continuing the presen policy. There is much interest in the visit of President Wilson here tomorrow night, when he will address the delegates in a “board walk theater.“ The President ‘will spend the night in a, beach front hotel and motor to Shadow Lawn, his summer home, on Saturday. Some of the delegates wanted to give the Pres- Gent a spectacular welcome and pro- vide him with an escort of women from it is the railroad station to the hotel, but understood that when the White House neard of it there was a change of plens. 17 POUNDS FOR $1.00 ; st granulated sugar; 100-poun — 96.35.

REFERENCE. TO LOBBY Kansan Opposes Action on Measure at This Session; Favors Legislation Later. — WASHINGTON, Sept. 7. — The Owen ecrrupt practices bill was made the ve- hicle for several hours of acrimonious political debate in the Senate yesterday. Senators Curtis of Kansas, Republican, and Ashurst of Arizona, Democrat, fur- nished the excitement in an interchange which looked for a few minutes as if it might result in a personal encounter. The Owen bill would restrict cam- paign expenditures of candidates, for the Senate, the House and for the presidency and vice presidency to a greater extent than existing laws. Senator Curtis argued that such a measure passed when a campaign is half over which might work unfair against men who have already spent the stipu- lated amount. He advocated a more stringent law than that proposed and cne that would particularly restrict the use of the congressional frank to pre- vent Senators or Representatives from sending out campaign appeals at Gov- ernment expense. He read a letter from Senator Ashurst to a constituent reciting his. record as a basis for support and said he understood that 70,000 of these had been franked out, in violation of the privilege. “If the Senator charges that this is a violation of the law,’’ said Senator Ashurst, when he got the floor, ‘‘he has sweetbreads for brains.“ He ex- plained that his letter had been sub- mitted to and approved by the Post- master-General and one of his assist- ants as being matter which could be franked and told how former President Taft when in the Philippines, and Sec- retary of War Root exchanged cable- grams at 52 cents a word, paid by the Government, to discuss Mr. Taft’s health and a horseback ride. Calling Senator Curtis the pharisee “rom Kansas,“ and brushing aside sev- eral chairs, he strode across the center aisle and shook his finger. under Senator Curtis’ nose. Senator Smoot, seated just between the two, moved back in mock alarm as Senator Ashurst ap- proached. Senator Curtis smiled, but kept his seat. A little later Ashurst turned on Sen- ator Penrose, who said he had not no- ticed a copper lobby’’ around the Cap- itol whose members had been talking with the Arizona Senator. “Tf,” said Ashurst, the Senator means to say that my vote has been in- fluenced by a copper lobby or any other lobby, he lies.“ Several Senators object- er to this language and Senator As- hurst, after explaining he had said if agreed to withdraw his remark. Several Senators told of large contri- butions to campaigns in various states. Senator Owen said former Representa tive A. Mitchell Palmer of Pennsylva- nia had stated that $750,000 was spent in one Pennsylvania election. Senator Pen- rose, in answer, said that Palmer’s statement had never been supported by evidence and declared he could give bet- ter proof that several hundred thousand dollars had been spent in Oklahoma in the recent primary campaign which re- sulted in the renomination of Senator Owen. Senator Pomerene said Myron T. Her- rick and the Myron T. Herrick Voters’ League in Ohio spent more than $51,000 in the recent primaries, which chose | Herrick as the Republican candidate. Senator Curtis asserted it was well known the Democrats were in favor of the bill because Secretary McAdoo and other Cabzinet members already have raised all the money the Democrats need in this campaign. He said $200,000 already has been sent into one State by the Democrats. senatoria) Busy Bee Candy Bargain Friday. Pecan filled Dates, French Nougat, Chocolate Cocoanut Creams, 20c Ib.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.—Representa- tive Rodenberg of East St. Louis, reiter- ating the charge that Cleveland ii. Dodge, who he declared, contributed $86,300 to the Wilson campaign in 1912, has been personally interested in the shipment of ammunition to Carranza troops in Mexico, declared in a speech before the House yesterday that court records prove his charges. Rodenberg said he submitted the facts and the public can draw its own con- clusions as to whether Mr. Cleveland H. Dodge is able to exercise any sinister in- fluence with the present administration.“ Rodenberg said his former statement about Dodge called for denials from Dodge and Secretary of State Lansing; he reac the denials. Mentions Indictment. “In wording his denial as he has, said Rodenberg. Mr. Dodge proves there is something in a name.

The trial Judge was the Hon. William C. Sawtelle. “The Phelps-Dodge Mercantile Co.

It will be noted that Mr. Cleveland H. Dodge is one of the vice presidents of the Phelps-Dodge Mercantile Co., and the Manual also shows that he is one of the vice presi- dents of the Phelps-Dodge Co. It may be true that Phelps-Dodge & Co. are not interested in the ‘manufacture of munitions of war,’ but in the face of this record it cannot be denied by any man who has the slightest regard for the truth that Phelps-Dodge & Co. are interested in the sale of munitions of war. „I shall not attempt to analyze the opinion rendered by Judge Sawtelle, as it speaks for itself. The indictment stated explicitly that the defendant company ‘did make and cause to be made a shipment of said munitions of war from the city of Douglas, in the county of Cochise, in the State and dis- trict of Arizona, and with the State of Sonora inethe United States of Mexico, as the ultimate destination of said ship- ment.’ The mere fact that the indict- ment did not specify a definite point of destination within the State of Sonora caused the learned Judge to hold that the indictment was fatally defective and on this flimsy technicality the demurrer to the indictment was sustained. ‘William C. Sawtelle was appointed Federal Judge for Arizona on Aug. 18, 1913, by President Wilson. His principal backer and the man who was primarily responsible for his appointment was Mr. Everett Ellinwood, genera! attorney for the Phelps-Dodge & Co. interests in Arizona. Mr. Cleveland H. Dodge joined in this recommendation. At the time of the trial, Dec. 1, 1913, the Hon. Joseph E.

Speaking of Dodge’s contributions to the Wilson campaign fund four years ago, Rodenberg said: “T find that in crediting Mr. Dodge with a contribution of $30,000 to the Democratic campaign fund of 1912 I un- intentionally did that gentleman a gross injustice, as he is entitled to credit for a much larger amount. In the testi- mony of Mr. William F. McCombs, chairman of the Democratic National Committee in 1912, given before a sub- committee of privileges and elections of the United States Senate, Mr. McCombs states that in the prenomination fight Mr. Cleveland H.
