PITTSBURG, Pa., Oct. 3.—As a result of a bloodless duel between Walter Jonke, 22, and John Honick, 23, the death of Honick is expected by physi- cians, who are puzzled by the strange case. Jonke and Honick had been at odds for several months. Finally they decided to settle the feud with pistols at 30 paces. Friends of the men, however, prevailed upon the seconds to substitute blank cartridges in the weapons. The two principals with their seconds entered an alley in the rear of South Twenty-ninth street and took their places. At the word both men began fir- ing. Suddenly Hontick fell. Think- ing that ai ball cartridge night have been left in Jonke’s weapon by oversight, one of the seconds hurried- ly sought a physician. Exe- ation de- veloped the fact that Honica was uncon- .ecious but unscathed. His condition de said to be critical. NATURAL GAS FOR BELLEVILLE Consumers Will Get it Latter Part of This Week. The St. Clair County Gas and Electric Co. yesterday notified consumers that natural gas would flow through Belle- ville mains the latter part of this week. Manager Parmelee yesterday said that burners being used for manufactured gas will not be applicable, and added that new ones will be installed, at the consumer’s expense. A minimum rate of 75 cents for 1000 cubic feet has been fixed. The old rate was $1.25. “Terrible Tank” Picture a Terrible Fake. In a number of Eastern papers last Friday and Saturday there was printed a picture purporting to be a reproduc- tion of an actual photograph of the famous British ‘“‘tank,’’ the armored car on caterpillar wheels which has been ‘mentioned recently in dispatches from France. This picture is appearing Tueg- day in newspapers of the Middle West, particularly the St. Louis Star, which reprints the illustration under the cap- tion “First Picture Published Here of ‘Terrible Tank’ ’’ with the assertion that it is an “authentic photograph of the new British engine of destruction.” Some of the Eastern papers—notably the Boston Post—credited the picture to the Evening Mail of Halifax, Nova Scotia, the first to print it anywhere. A telegram sent by the Post-Dispatch on Monday, to the editor of the Mail, asked for the origin and history of the (lustration. The following reply by wire was received: “Picture of British tank printed in Mail was artist's conception, not a pho- tograph. W. R.

LOUIS FOR 39TH TIME TONIGHT ee Shakspearian Floats to Be Followed by Ball. MANY VISITORS IN CITY Here for Ceremonies From Many Points Within a Radius of 150 Miles. The thirty-ninth annual parade and ball of the Veiled Prophet, to take place tonight, brought visitors to St. Louis to- day from nearly all points within 150 miles, reached by steam or electric rail- roads and from a number of places mors distant. The “fair and warmer” prediction made for tonight by the Weather Bu- reau indicates that the right sort of weather will prevail. It is a singular fact that the first Tuesday night in October is very seldom anything but fair in St Louis. Only twice in the 3 years of the Prophet’s visits has it been necessary to postpone the parade be- cause of rain. In case of a postpone- ment, the parade is given on the next fair night. The ball in the Coliseum takes place regardless of weather condi- tions. The Veiled Prophet pageant, leaving the starting point at Twenty-first and Walnut streets at 6:45 this evening, will move through the principal streets be- tweel Fourth street and Grand avenue, and will make its entrance to the Coll- seum at about 10 o’clock. The parade, in recent years, has made a record for promptness. 22 Shukspearean Floats. The 22 floats will represent scenes from Shakspeare’s plays, all except the first, which belongs to the Veiled Proph- et himself. Following the Prophet’s float will come the title float, which will present the Shakspearean theme. Shakspeare, high on the pedestal of fame, will re- view his greatest characters—Falstaff, Hamlet, King Lear, Macbeth, Caesar, Richard and the rest. Then will ome! Proteus of “The Two Gentlemen. of Ve- rona,” lamenting man’s one chief error, assassins in the Senate-House; the wrestling match in “As You Like It;’’ Cordelia bending over her stricken fa- ther, King Lear; Imogen of Cymbeline in the cave of Belarius; Coriolanus, in the Forum, making his plea for the consulship; the duel in ‘“‘Twelfth Night;’’ the two Dromios, in the “‘Comedy of Er- rors;’”’ Queen Margaret’s capture, in “Henry VI;” Falstaff at the Boar’s- head Tavern. Other subjects will be Cleopatra, on her wonderful barge, going to meet An- tony; the wooing of Cressida, by Trot- lus; Perdita’s graceful welcome, in ‘“‘The Winter’s Tale;’’ Macbeth and the three witches; the balcony scene in “Romeo and Juliet;’’ Adrial, in ‘““‘The Tempest;” Ophelia and Laertes, in “‘Hamlet;” the nine worthies, in ‘‘Love’s Labor Lost;”’ Dogberry’s ridiculous court, in ‘‘Much Ado About Nothing,’’ and Titania and Bottom in “‘Midsummer Night’s Dream. ’ Second Tercentenary Observance. This is the year of the Shakspeare tercentenary, the three hundredth anni- versary of Shakspeare’s death. The parade will be St. Louis’ second act of observance of this tercentenary, the first having been the “‘As You Like It” performance in Forest Park last June. At the ball, in the interval before the Prophet and his escort arrive, Miss Lydia Locke of the London Opera Com- pany, will sing, and Miss Swain of the Metropolitan Opera Company will dance, assisted by a ballet of 16 girls. There will be 12 musical, solo dance and bal- let numbers, the last followed by the entry of the queen. The name of the queen is a carefully guarded secret. She will be selected by the Prophet after his entrance and the procession of his courtiers, and a dance program of 16 numbers will follow. Vehicle regulations have been issued for the ball, setting apart three one-way traffic street, from 7 p. m. until 2 a. m., as follows: Leffingwell avenue (Twenty- eighth street) from Chestnut to Wash- ington, for northbound traffic only; Washington avenue, from Leffingwel] to Twentieth, for eastbound traffic only; Locust street from Leonard av- enue to Jefferson avenue for eastbound traffic only. Three Streets to Be Closed. From 7 until 2, Washington evenue from Garrison avenue to Leffingell, Beaumont (Twenty-seventh street) from Locust to Washington, and Locust street from Jefferson to Leffingwell will be closed to all traffic. Drivers of vehicles which are not go- ings to the Coliseum are asked, for to- ! | r | | preset te ‘night, to use Chestnut street and Law- ton avenue, avoiding Locust and Pine streets.

MILK WAR IN NEW YORK HAS SPREAD THROUGHOUT STATE City’s Supply Further Curtailed by " Farmers—Violence at Some Points Reported. NEW YORK, Oct. 3.—The farmers of New York State tightened their grip on the milk supply today and caused a further reduction in the quantity sup- plied to this city, in their effort to com- pel the big distributers here to pay higher prices. The milk war, which originated with the organization of the Dairymen's League, has spread throughout the State. Reports tell of thousands of gal- lons of milk spilled in combats between the dairymen and the employes of the distributers, the picketing of crossroads in dairy districts and of farmers being held up and beaten. John J. Dillon, State Commissioner of Foods and Markets, who represents the League of Farmers, estimates that not more than 2% per cent of the normal amount of milk was shipped into New k City for use today. City distrib- claimed they had received about} 60 per cent of the 2,500,000 gallons re- quired daily. NEPHEW OF ZELAYA KILLS FOUR MEN IN AN ELECTION DAY FIGHT Relative of Former President of Nic- aragua Himself Seriously Wounded at Managua. MANAGUA, Nicaragua, Oct. 3.—In an election fight here Sunday,when G. Chamorro was chosen President of the republic, Salvador. Zelaya, a nephew of former President Zelaya, attacked a group of Conservatives, shooting and killing four of them. Zelaya himself was seriously wound- ed, and several other persons were hurt. The police quelled the disorder. Gen. Chamorro has been for years an active leader of the Conservative party and for the last three yeurs has been Nicaraguan Minister to Washington. He was unopposed in the election. Dr. Julian Irias, Liberal candidate, withdrew 16 days ago, giving as a reason that the State Department at Washington would not recognize the election of a can- didate who had been connected with the administration of former Presi- WILSON BETS MADE AT | TO 2 Heretofore New York Wanted 2% to I.

CHICAGO, Oct. 3—A voluntary wage increase of 2% cents an hour for 60,000 employes of the operating departments all over the United States is announced by Armour & Co., Swift & Co., Wilson & Co., Libby, McNeil & Co., and Mor- ris & Co. Simultaneously with this announce- ment came that of the Wholesale Cloth- ters’ Association, stating that 20,000 of their workers would receive a reduction in working hours from 50 to 48 hours a week, with no loss of pay. Brokers Movement for Early Thanksgiving. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 3—A move- ment to make the next Thankagiving day Nov. 23 instead of Nov. 30 was be- gun here today by the Merchants’ Asso- ciation of Kansas City, when a telegram was sent to President Wilson requesting the earlier date. The merchants believe the holiday, falling on the last day of the month works a hardship, crowding all the Christmas business into three INVESTORS HOLD MYSTERIOUS BAG, NOTHING INIT St. Louisans Who Put $20,000 in Cartoon Movie Serial Get’ No Returns. WAS NEWSPAPER SCHEME Big Profits Were Expected by Grocers Giving Away Coupons for Prizes. St. Louisans who bought stock in “The Mysterious Bag,” a cartoon movie serial, are now holding the bag. So far as they have been able to learn it is empty. A receiver for the “Mysterious Bag,” appointed several days ago in Kansas City, at the instance of the St. Louis stock and “bag holders,” has been un- able to find anything in it but mystery. Philip W. Haberman of the law firm of Stern & Haberman, in the Railway ll lll ll Probable New Premier of. Japan, ‘ His Wife and Their Daughter | Exchange Building, was the president of the local company formed by the, promoters to exploit the picture serial. Among the 8t. Louis stockholders also were Simon Van Raalte, a pawnbroker in the Holland Building and Abe Cohn, vice president of the National Feed Co., in the Chamber of Commerce Building. A number of St. Louis grocers also were financially interested in the proj- ect. It Was a Serial. “The Mysterious Bag’ was launched as a movie serial last winter in the Globe-Democrat. The story was printed in installments in the Globe-Democrat and the scenario was written by a member of the staff of that newspaper. Grocers who were‘enlisted in the ex- ploitation were induced to give coupons to customers who bought certain brands of goods. These coupons were supposed to be good for prizes the nature of which was to be made known when the last picture in the series would reveal what was in the ‘Mysterious Bag.”’ Contingent contracts were made. with wholesale and retail grocers and with the theaters where the pictures were’ shown whereby they were to turn. over: to the “Mysterious Bag” corporation a percentage of the profits which they made as a result of the scheme. The theory was that the exploitation of the picture and the giving of coupons would advertise the grocers’ goods and increase the theaters’ business. The “Mysterious Bag’ was not the “hit” it had been acclaimed. Despite the efforts of the promoters to keep it alive, it “‘got the hook’’ and was yanked from the screen long before the prom- ised prize-revealing climax, and no one in St. Louis ever learned what was in the bag. Local stockholders are said to have invested about $20,000 in the project. Failed in Kansas City. An effort to “‘put it over’’ in Kansas City was then made, but this also re- sulted disastrously. Van Raalte yesterday told a Post-Dis- patch reporter he did not expect to realize anything from his investment, which, he said, was made on the rec- ommendation of Haberman, his attor- ney. é Cohn said he would sell his holdings for 25 cents on the dollar, but would not reveal how much he had invested. Members of the Columbian Club are said to have been the heaviest investors. Cohn said lack of popular interest was the principal reason for the failure of the project. The expected profits did not roll in, and therefore the grocers and theaters could not be held to their contracts. FRED ESSEN’S SON INJURED Kicked in Abdomen in Class Fight at University, Victor H. Essen, 18-year-old son of Fred Essen of Clayton, will return Fri- day from Northwestern University, Evanston, Ill., for treatment of an in- jury received in a class rush, and will probably have to undergo an operation. The injury was received Thursday morning, when the sophomores threw 75 freshmen into a lake. Young Essen escaped the ducking, but in the scrim- mage he was kicked in the abdomen and was tied to a tree. His successful efforts to free himself aggravated the injury.

TOKIO, Oct. 3.—The Nichi Nichi Shim- bun in an extra edition announces that the Cabinet of Premier Count Okuma has decided to resign. The Premier is said to have stated that he would recommend to the Em- peror the appointment of Viscount Takaaki Kato as his successor. The Okuma Cabinet was formed in Au- gust of last year. Its resignation had been expected for several months. It was forecast by the Premier in a speech last May, in which he indicated he would retire in favor of Viscount Kato. The Premier’s advanced age—he is 78 years old—has been given as the reason for his decision to resign, although it has also been intimated he would withdraw to make way for a man of bolder national policy. The Premier largely controlled the for- eign policy of his country, and has been assailed by the opposition for not “adopt- ing a more vigorous attitude toward China. On many occasions he has ex- pressed friendship for the United States, and in an interview several months ago said war between this country and Japan was impossible. Most of his active life has been spent in the public service. Viscount Kato has served as Foreign Minister and Ambassador to Great Brit- ain. He took a prominent part in the negotiations which followed the pre- sentation of the 21 Japanese demands on China and also in the discussion with Washington of the California anti-alien land law.

R-HUGHES BUTTONS 10 BE IN DISFAVOR TONIGHT Some Come to Light Despite Effort of Union League Club to Suppress Them. NEW YORK, Oct. 3.—Efforts to sup- press the Roosevelt-Hughes-Taft but- tons suggested for use at the Union League Club reception to Charles E. Hughes this evening, which will be at- tended by former Presidents Taft and Reosevelt, have not been wholly suc- cessful. A few came to light last night. The picture of Roosevelt appears on the left, that of Hughes in the center and Taftt’s on the right. Above Roosevelt’s likeness is the word ‘“‘Security,’’ above Hughes picture is ‘“‘Harmony” and above Taft’s ‘‘Justice.”’ National Chairman Willcox said sev- eral days ago that he had not ordered the buttons. Their general use at the reception this evening is not expected. There is much speculation as to whetii- er President Root of the Union League Club will endeavor to have the Colonel publicly shake hands with Mr. Taft and “‘Boss”’ Bill Barnes. No one seems to know. ‘ Col. Roosevelt has declared he will make no advances either to Taft or Barnes. Taft and Barnes are silent. Exceptional care will be exercised to see that nothing occurs to embarrass either Roosevelt or Taft. Taft returned to New Haven yester- day after spending his summer vacation at Murray Bay, Canada. His weight has been reduced to 266 pounds, nearly 100 pounds lower than when he was Presi- dent of the United States. Taft said that golf deserves most of the credit for placing him in fighting trim for the cam- paign, which will begin for him at,the Hughes meeting tonight. The former President met Roosevelt two years ago at the funeral in New Haven of Prof. Thomas Launsbury of Yale, and their mutual attitude was for- mal and frigid. Taft declined to say t»- day whether he expected a higher tem- perature to prevail tonight. He will speak at a Trenton, (N. J.) rally Wednesday evening. MAN HELD AFTER MURDER OF HIS.64-YEAR-OLD BRIDE Grand Rapids Authorities Claim to Have Traced Recent Pur- chase of Revolver to Him, GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Oct. 3.— James Allen, 64 years old, who says he is from Ashtabula, O., is being held by Kent County authorities pending com- pletion of an investigation into the death of Mrs. Anna St. John of Mayfield, N. Y., whose bullet-pierced *#ody was found in a field near Grand Rapids, last Sun- day. County records show that Allen and Mrs. St. John were married here Sept. The authorities say that Allen—who, they claim, told them he also has used the names of James Alerton and John Williams—purchased a revolver in Grand Rapids some time ago, and that he signed the name “‘Alerton”’ to the blank. He also registered at a local hotel as “‘Alerton,’’ it is claimed. Until late yes- terday the Sheriffs worked upon the the- ory that the dead woman was Mrs. Ad- die M. Kimbal of Chicago. DRINK WATER 10 WATER 10 AVOID SICKNESS SAYS AN AUTHORITY Glass of hot water before break- fast daily keeps the doctor away. Sanitary science has of late made rapid strides with results that are of untold blessing to humanity. The latest application of its untiring re- search is the recommendation that it is as necessary to attend to in- ternal sanitation of the drainage system of the human body as it is to the drains of the house. Those of us who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise, splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flush- ing out the whole of the internal poisonous stagnant matter. Beryone whether ailing, sick or well, should, each morning before breakfast drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of lime- stone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver and bowels the previous day’s indigestible waste, bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal] before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and lime- stone phosphate on an empty stem- ach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermenta- tions, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a .splendid appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the phosphated hot water is quietly extracting a large volume of water from the blood and getting ready for a thorough flush- ing of all the inside organs. The millions of people who are bothered with constipation, bflious ‘spells, stomach trouble, rheumatic stiffness; others who have sallow skins, blood disorders and sickly complexions are urged to get a quar- ter pound of limestone phosphate from the drug store. This will cost very little but is sufficient to make anyone a pronounced crank on the | subject of internal sanitation.—ADV. ‘ 4 . he h + ca Re ad g wy * q . > o - m "=e a I - - - * bie : *'¢ \ - j : ' a >.” 5 ET ER ET EEE Pe ER Soe = 7 TO KEEP WORLD AT PEACE British Statesman Says Pian Hardly Could Suc- ceed Without America’s Aid—Decries Spirit of Hatred. of Germans. ’ BIRMINGHAM, England, Oct. 3—Vis- count Bryce’of Dechmont, former Am- bassador at Washington, addressing the Congregational Union today, decrigd the spirit of hate against the Germans and the talk of a lasting trade war. In con- clusion, he advocated a league to re- strain aggression and compel arbitra- tion. “If there is to be a recurrence of wars, becoming more terrible with the unceas- ing advance of science,’ he said, “we may well despair of the future.” Lord Bryce recalled that Premier As- quith, Lord Gray and A. J. Bal- four had expressed energetically and sincerely the need of such machinery as he proposed and said that several groups of thinkers were working out the plans. “To establish any machinery for pre- serving peace,” continued Lord Bryce, “would be impossible without the co- operation of the neutral states, and es- pecially the greatest of all of the neu- tral states. We have been waiting and watching to see whether America would, in view of the immense interests at stake, depart from her old policy of complete isolation and bear her part in the effort for securing a permanent al- liance for peace. An influential league for that purpose has already been formed there and now two momentous events have happened on which I dwell because ‘they have been little noticed here. Quotes President and Hughes. “President ‘Wilson delivered four months ago a powerful and luminous speech, in which he announced that the United States could not stand aloof from a movement in which the highest interests of manhood were concerned, and that he felt sure the people of the United States were prepared to join in any feasible scheme for the prevention of future wars. , “Two months ago Mr. Charlies E. Hughes, in accepting the nomination as candidate for the presidency by the Re publican party, declared with no less force and no less sincerity that he was convinced the time had come for Amer- ica to unite with European countries in a well-considered scheme for applying methods of arbitration and conciliation to securing general and permanent peace in the world. “Thus the heads of the two great American parties, distinguished men and the official exponents of American opin. ion, have promised the co-operation of their nation in this project—one of great difficulty, no doubt, but also of supreme importance, “Our people and the statesmen who lead our people could have no greater encouragement to address themselves. when the time comes, to the enterprise which thy have already pronounced to be necessary. I ask your help to bring the matter before the people and to show them how mueh we and every na- tion have to gain by removing the ter- ror and the danger of war, which so long has hung like a black cloud over Europe. The churches could do no more Christian work. “Let not this war have been fought.in vain! Let us search for and try to put into practice some scheme for reducing and, if possible, at last. for ending this oldest and most terrible scourge of man- kind.” People Demand Enduring Peace. Lord Bryce said the country was vir- tually unanimous in holding that the war must be pursued to victory s0 complete as to open the prospect of an enduring peace, and added: “On the terms of that treaty the peo- ple will insist and ought to insist on expressing their opinion, and the churches must do their part in helping to form it.’”’ He declared that the precepts of Chris- tianity coincide with those of political wisdom, and that the churches should work for national unity and good feel- ing between the classes. “Let us avoid, let us repress the spirit UNION ELECTRIC CHARGED ITH “HARASSING” RIVAL Attorney for Light and Development Co. Makes Assertion at Public Service Board Hearing. Charges that the Urfton Electric Light cond Power Co. employs publicity agents tu visit towns in which the Light and Development Co. of St. Louis operates plants ‘‘to harass” the latter, were made by Attorney J. R. Kelso at a hearing before the Board of Public Service yes- terday afternoon. Kelso was represent- ing the Cupples Station Light, Heat and Fower Co., one of the Light and De- velopment’s subsidiaries, which is seek- iv to connect a generating plant on st. Charles street, between Sixth and Se’- enth streets and the Nugent store at Broadway and. 8t. Charles street. A. C. Einstein, vice president and ger:- eral manager, and Ben Schnurmacher, general counsel of the Union Electric ©o., denied the allegations made by Kelso. Schnurmacher introduced Ein- sicin to testify that the Union company had not opposed the granting of the permit under which the Cupovles Station ccmpany is seeking to exte d its lines. METHODIST PASTOR DIVORCED in Belleville. A cross bill filed by Mrs. Ragedale, in which she named a Belleville young ‘| The German people are under a harsh} of hatred,” he said. “We are justly in- dignant at the war the enemy Powers have waged. We trust that our victory will warn th® world that such methods must never be. resorted to again, and that those guilty of them will be pun- ished, but is it wise to talk of banning a whole people for all time to come? and tyrannous rule, which has not only deceived and misled them, but silences any protest—and there are those who wish to protest—against its crimes. Some day we hope they will overthrow it, when they have learned the truth. "To indulge in revenge will be to sow the seeds of future wars. Nations can- not hate one another forever, and the sooner they cease to do go the better for all of them. We must take al] proper steps to defend ourselves from any dan- gers that might arise if after the war the enemy countries were to resume an insidious hostility. That is at present no more than a possibility, which may never arise. Trade War Would Embitter Hatreds. “But the talk we now hear about start- ing war after peace has been concluded, a new war of trade to follow the war of arms, has immense capacities for mis- chief. Such a trade war would prolong. would embitter afresh those hatreds that ought to be allowed to die and it as- sumes a continuance of those very things from which we expect our victory t? deliver us once for all. “Our main purpose will have failed if we do not secure a durable peace. To prolong hatreds would inerease suspi- cion, would lead in time to a recurrence to those very calamities from which we are suffering. If severe terms have to be imposed, let that be done only so far as is necessary for securing future peace, not in a vindicative spirit, which, in perpetuating hatreds, would end by relighting the flames of war.”’ Lord Bryce advocated that the princli- ples of nationality be respected as far as possible, especially in the cases of Poland, the Southern Slavs, Transyl- vania and Armenia. An article expressing the same views as contained in his speech is contributed by Lord Bryce to a special American number of the Manchester Guardian. The number contains articles from other distinguished British and American writers.

This tormula is now offered to the world in the form of Tobey Polish. Already it is used in the finer homes throughout the country, It is more than @ furniture polish. It re- stores the original finish by removing all dirt and ase. caine th off dirt and grease much more an soap and water. Wipes off dry. Leaves no oily film or veneer. Does not dry or crack the finest finish, but renews the elasticity of the varnish. j Further advantages are the ease and speed with which it works. Results are instantaneous. No hard work, no hard rubbing. After the furniture and woodwork have been cleaned with Tobey Polish, a little on the dust cloth will keep eve looking from day to day. Try it on any arti- ele of furniture from a chair to a piano. There is nothing like it for cleaning and preserving the finish of automobile ies. Gives a beautiful polish that will not collect dust.

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH T0 GUARD BORDER Carranza Commissioners Propose Divided Patrol, With With- drawal of U. S. Troops. RECIPROCITY IN CROSSING LN Declare That Their Proposal, if Accepted, Will Insure Safety of Frontier. ——— eae. woe ~ + Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Oct. missioners, acting on instructions from Gen. Carranza, again urged the with- draway of all American troops from Mexican soil and presented the following plan for the protection of the American ‘border: 1. That all American troops be with- drawn from Mexico. 2. That all Americah troops guard the border on the American side wherever the railroads on American soil run par- allel or close to the border. 3. That the Mexican troops guard the ‘border on the Mexican side where there are no railroads in close proximity to the border. 4. That a system of communication be kept up between the Americar and Mex- ican forces by means of officers de liai- son so that information may readily be transmitted and steps taken to head off bandits. 56. That a reciprocal arreement be en- tered into giving the forces of either country the right to cross the border into the territory of the other on a hot trail within a given zone of 100 miles. Think Border Would Be Safe. The Mexican commissioners took great Pains to point out that they were as anxious as their American colleagues to protect the American border and tv make impossible the renewal of such in- cidents as the Columbus raid. They as- serted their belief that the plan proposed by them would achieve the purpose of the conference. In support of their plan they urged that under Presidents Hayes and Gar- field a somewhat similar arrangement had been in force and that in Gen. Grant's administration a reciprocal un- derstanding existed for either side cross- ing the border on a hot trail. They cited one instance where a party of American Indians, escaping from their reservation, had crossed the bor- der and carried off horses and cattle and two girls, but that the pursuing rurales halted at the border and sent a message to the agent in charge of the reservation without crossing the border, as they had a right to do. '. -This they asserted would certainly be . the case again under the agreement they urged, but their instructions from Gen. Carranza were to demand recipro- cal rights as far as crossing the border is concerned. This has been Carranza’s position from the beginning. It was also made clear that although the Mexican commissioners would be glad to receive any advice the American commissioners could give as to the solu- tion of their internal problems, they would not permit themse!ves to be dic- tated to and would resent any attempt to include such provisions in any proto- col which might be signed. They do not take the position that the withdrawal of the American troops must be. uncondi- tional, but they hold that American troops have no business on Mexican soil and they are presenting their plan for the protection of the border, so as to forestall any objection that might be raised to the withdrawal of the Ameri- can troops, which is the controversy they have been instructed to settle first. A committee representing 50 mining and smelting companies operating in Mexico protested to the American mem- bers of the commission yesterday against what they called ‘‘contfiscatory decrees" in that country and urged the return to the old methods of taxation. | William Loeb Jr., representing the American Smelting & Refining Co., head- 4 the delegation. 72 Indictments Are Stolen.

Dr. William Preston Hill, a wealthy retired physician, in an address before the St. Louis Medical Society Saturday night, declared the St. Louis City Hos- pital was infested with bedbugs and was otherwise improperly conducted. A Post-Dispatch + reporter -yesterday savent with Dr. Hill to the city hospital and Dr. John A, Pringle, superintendent, con- ducted them through the institution. In the women’s wards the beds were examined and the patients questioned as to food and treatment. No bugs were four™, and the women al! said the food was wholesome and sufficient. In. the men’s department beds in three of the third-floof wards were inspected for bugs, but none were found. Nor were there any complaints against the food or attention. The fourth ward visited on the third floor, a section of division 15, contained 12 bedfast rheumatic patients. The beds were’ found to be infested with bedbugs, which, the patients said, had annoyed them for weeks. No other complaints were heard. Some patients in wards on the second floor said they had seen “a bug or two,’ but examination of the beds revealed none. Referring to division 15, Dr. Pringle said: “‘The nurse in that ward should have met this condition with proper measures, and, failing to eliminate the vermin, should have made a report. This was not done. We will employ effective measures at once to clean that ward. ‘‘Bedbugs will get into any ‘nstitution. no matter what diligence is exercised. Thousands of persons from al! walks of life visit this hospital eath year, andi bedbugs are often carried in clothing.” The hospital kitchen was found to be clean. PIRL LOSES SUIT OVER WILL Court Denies Her Half Interest ip Grandmotker’s $25,000 Estate. Miss Louise Disser, 17 years old, of Denver, yesterday lost the suit she brought in the United States District Court to obtain a half interest in the $25,000 estate of her grandmother, Mrs. Mary Disser of Ferguson, Mo. Judge Dyer, after a hearing which lasted three days, decided against her. The greater part of the estate, com- prising real estate at Ferguson, was deeded by Mrs. Disser to her son, Louis J. Disser. The remainder was willed to him and to her granddaughter, Louise Disser. The genuineness of the signa- ture on the deed to Louis Disser was the principal point in controversy and Judge Dyer held that the signature was that of Mrs. Disser.

A bullet fired ‘at an elevated train clipped a piece from the right ear of a passenger, Mel- ville Wright, 40 years old, and fell to the floor after penetrating a motor- man’s booth.

In the first annual St. Louis automo- bile parade, taking the place of the automobile shéw_as a festival week fea- ture, 110 bright new cars were driven through the West End and downtown streets today. Dealers were the exhib- itors. In the line of machines, extending over six blocks, there were cars to suit almost every purse, from the $345 run- about to the $8000 limousine. The pa- rade was headed by a band, which rode on a heavy truck, but played light mu- Bic. In the line were touring cars, road- sters of various types, limousines, se- dans, coupes, town cars, landaulets, cabriolets, convertibles and runabouts. On each car was a sign showing its make and price. Starting at Vandeventer avenue and Lindell boulevard, the parade moved east to the Lindell cut-off and thence east on Locust street to Twelfth street, north to Washington avenue, east to Broadway, south to Olive, west to Twelfth street, south to Pine street, west to Grand avenue and north to Page boulevard. From Grand avenue and Page boulevard the machines were driven to the St. Louis Fair at Max- wellton, St. Louis County, to be exhib- ited there. The cars were parked at the side of the road in the rear of the grand stand and attracted as much attention as any other exhibit. In the downtown district the parade was greatly impeded by traffic, especial- ly at street car crossings. This caused it to be split up into sections and. the line was not reformed until after Eight- eenth street had been passed on the re- turn.

J., Oct. 3.—Henry Ford, when asked after he had talked for four hours with President Wilson at Shadow Lawn, if he intended to make a contribution to the Wilson campaign fund, replied: ‘“‘I should say not.” Why?’ “Because I believe the office should seek the man and not the man the of- fice.’’ “In the case of President Wilson,” Ford continued, ‘“‘the office just now is seeking the man, and there is no rea- son why 1 cent should be expended to change the situation and make it appear that the man is seeking the office.”’ ‘What do you believe are the possi- bilities of the re-election of Mr. Wil- ad on “If the American people are sane—and I believe they are—Mr. Wilson will be re-elected and by a large majority in the electoral college.” — “Do you intend to make any speeches "> for him? “T never make speeches,” Ford plied.

Harry B. Hawes, known 12 years ag0 as the political boss of St. Louis, was named today as the Democratic candl- date for State Representative from the Third District of St. Louis, to fill a vacancy caused by the withdrawal from the ticket of Felix (Fish) McAdams, nominated in the primary to succeed himself. Hawes’ name was put on the ticket by. the Legislative Committee of the Third District, which received McAd- ams’ resignation yesterday. The Third District is normally Democratic. In 1910, when State-wide prohibition was submitted to the voters of Missouri through the initiative, Hawes took a leading part in the campaign against the proposed prohibition amendment to the Constitution. The amendment was beat- en by 435,406 noes to 207,281 ayes—a little more than a two-to-one vote. In a formal statement Hawes made plain that he is not seeking the office to wage a particular fight against pro- hibition. He said that the office would give him opportunity to work for a good roads law. Hawes was one of the most energetic workers for the St. Lou's County $3,000,000 bond issue for good roads. For 18 months he said in his statement, he has been studying roads and road laws. [_xpects Attack by Drys. In concluding his formal statement, Hawes said: “A friend stated he feared, because i was counsel of August A. Busch, the object of my going to the Legislature might be assumed by some to be for the purpose of affecting the liquor ques- tion. / “A slight consideration of the facts, however, should dispel this impression. ‘Every member, either Democratic or Republican, who will go to the next. Legislature from this city, will be op- posed to prohibition. All the present candidates in this district are opposed to it. In all probability there will be a preponderance of ‘dry’ sentiment in the Legislature, so that my vote or my voice would not affect the result if ‘dry’ legislation is attempted. “It is true that I am Mr. Busch’s per- sonal counsel, and the relationship is even closer, for I have been his inti- mate, personal friend for over fifteen years, and regard him highly both as a friend and as a citizen, so if assailed upon such trivial ground, I shall meet the issue squarely.’’ He referred to the plan of Daniel C. Nugent, Edward M. Flesh and others for building a system of model roads in a W*mile radius of St. Louis, and said he would like to see a comprehen- sive State road law, which would en- able the construction of such roads. He and others are now having the road laws of Missouri codified with a view to introducing in the next Legislature a comprehensive road law to take the place of the present ‘‘complicated, anti- quated and confused enactments.”’ Hawes said he would be able to do more good for St. Louis and St. Louis County, as well as for the rest of the State, by the passage of good road laws than in any other way. As to the pro- hibition question, he said, every St. Louis member of the Legislature will be opposed to it and there would be no particular advantage gained by his working specifically against prohibition. He said he thought the question would be decided definitely at the polls in No- vember. Although Hawes has a country home in St. Louis County, he maintains a legal residence at the Warwick Hotel, Fifteenth and Locust streets, making him eligible as a candidate from the downtown district. MYSTERY IN DEATH OF 3 WOMEN Inquiry Follows Finding of Bodies in Chairs in Ohio City, LANCASTER, O., Oct. 3-—James A. Tobin, Prosecuting Attorney, is investi- gating the mysterious case of Misses Agnes and Alice Smetters and Miss May Stretton, who were found dead seated in chairs in the parlor of the old “‘Smet- ters Mansion’ here Sunday night, on the theory that the women were slain. So far the police and Coroner’s inquiry has failed to reveal how the three wom- en met death. ‘‘Without any supporting proof of the fact, I am inclined to believe that death was due to asphyxiation,’’ Tobin said. STOLEN AUTO IS DAMAGED Policeman Fires Shots at Four Men Who Escape. An automobile belonging to William Moxey of 1027A North Leonard -avenue was stolen about 1 o’clock this morn- ing from in front of the Sheridan House, Leffingwell and Easton avenues, and 2 minutes later collided with a telephone pole in front of 1211 Glasgow avenue. A patrolman saw four men jump from the car and run. One limped as though injured. The patrolman fired several shots in the air, but the men escaped. ‘The car was damaged to the extent of $100. <4 and workmanship. Open Evenings and Sundays.

Brandle, General Sales Manager 3334 South Grand Avenue President Wilson, Hughes, Roosevelt and Marshall Ridi- culed in Kansas Speeches. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 3—The Pro- hibition national campaigners who are traveling over the country In a special train are having fun at the expense of the Democrats and Republicans. The candidates came into Missouri last night for a meeting here, where interest is fn- tense in the wet and dry fight. Both J. Frank Hanly and Ira Land- rith, candidates for President and Vice President, respectively, pleaded with Kansas people at every city yesterday to get actively Into the national fight. “We challenge you to step to our sides as you stepped to Lincoin’s in 11,” Hanly said at Osage City. “Let Wilson and Hughes quarre] over whether a Gov- ernment employe is a horse doctor and come with us to fight for the real issue. You cast aside party affiliations in. 1891 ; won't you do it now? If Landrith and 1? can afford to give three months to th's fight without remuneration, surely you can afford to give us your vote.’ Hanly continued to assail Vice Pres- ident Marshall for obtaining the repea! of the local option law in Indiana. “Marshall never has risen above the attitude of a medicine man,” he de- clared at Emporia. Hanly also declared that from Col. Roosevelt's speech in sat‘le Creek Sat- urday night he seemed to be “laboring under the impression that he was nomi- nated at Chicago.” “Roosevelt's indorsement of Hughes is not enough, he said, at Topeka. “His ability as an underwriter of Presidents is too well } ‘own to the American péo- ple; they do not forget that he undér- wrote William Howard Taft.’ Landrith declared in an address at Topeka that Hughes should be lined up with, the drys, for thus far he had even failed to put “punch” into his cam- paign. WOMAN HIT BY MOTOR CYCLE Mrs. H. C. Meister Knocked Unecen~ scious at Grand and Lafayette Avenues. Mrs, Herman C. Meister, 4 years oid, of 2930 Geyer avenue, was knocked un- conscious at 7 o'clock last night at Grand and Lafayette avenues by a mo- tor cycle driven. by John Gibbons of 4331 Morgan street. She received cuts about the head and face and lost her pocketbook, containing $40 = valuable papers. She was taken home. Mrs. Meister had just placed her auto- mobile in a rage and was the street. Gibbons’ wife, Mrs. Bthel Gibbons, who was with him on the mo- tor cycle, was thrown off and received —_ and bruises. Gibbons was arrest- ea, ——— The Center of Attraction at the Show!

LOS ANGELES, Cal., Oct. 3.—Charles W, Fairbanks, Republican candidate for Vice President, speaking in the Audi- torium Theater last night, described as a “base utterance’’ such charges as that made by President Wilson Saturday at Shadow Lawn, when he said the “‘cer- tain prospect of Republican success’’ in November would be the use of force in Mexican and entanglement of this coun- try in the embroilments of the European war. “The suggestion which is now and then heard,’’ Fairbanks said, ‘‘to the effect that Republican victory will tend to our entering the European war is a base utterance which the stress of a political campaign does not warrrant.

When it became known last May that union organizers were working among the spar minerg, the two mining com- panies posted notices that they would not employ men belonging to a union. Twenty men immediately lost their po- sitions. Others began joining the or- ganization until 28 of the 6500 miners employed at the two mines quit work. Sheriff L. H. MeGinnis of Hardin County swore in extra deputies, and soon after there was a night fight in the streets of Rosiclare in which one deputy Sheriff and three men, said to be nonunion miners, were wounded. Violence again broke out on the night of July 31 when there waa a fusillade of shots. When the smoke had cleared, twv nonunion miners and one union man were found in the streets wounded. Twice Gov. Dunne has sent Assistant Adjutant-General Shand and James F. Morris, secretary of the State Mining Board, to Rosiclare to ascertain for him the true conditions. After each investi- gation these men reported that all was quiet, but each time the trouble broks3 out anew within a few weeks after their departure. .

Special to the Post-Dispatch. TOPEKA, Kan., Oct. 3.—Frederick D. Gardner, Democratic candidate for Gov- ernor of Missouri, is migtaken in his statement that the tax rate in Missouri is lower than in Kansas. The Missouri tax rate for strictly State purposes is given at 15 cents on each $100 of valuation. In Kansas it has been 12% cents on each $100 for several years, and in 1916, the taxes to be collected in November of this year, the rate is 13 cents, the highest rate ever collected in the State. The following table shows the total] amounts of taxes collected for State and all municipal purposes during the past three years: 1913—State, $3,371,988; county, $7,022,728; city, $5,076,659; township, $3,607,208; school, $10,245,912; drainage, $159,388; tot&l, $29,- 483,883. 1914—State, $3,381,757; county, $7,575,563; city, $5,461,201; township, $8,629,0v2; school, $10,792,487; drainage, $157,812; total, $30,- 988,122. 1915—State, $3,620,202; county, $8,537,711; city, $6,895,082; township, $4,309,728; school, $11,288,378; drainage, $198,466; total, $33,- 849,567. The taxes to be collected for State purposes in 1916, which will be used to pay State expenses in 1917, are slightly less than three and three-quarter million dollars. The total taxes for the munici- pal subdivisions has not been made up, as not all the local levies have been re- ported. What State Taxes Pay. The State taxes are expended for purely State purposes. They pay the Salaries and expenses of al! State of- ficers and departments, the expenses and salaries of all the State schools and charitable and penal institutions. The schools and institutions have some fee accounts, from the sale of farm produce and the payment of tuition in the schools and the support of private pa- tients in the.institutions, but these ac- counts are small. The county taxes pay the salaries and expenses of the county officers and departments, maintenance of the jails and county farms, good roads and bridge accounts and similar expenses. The city taxes pay the same class of expenses within the cities alone, not in- cluding paving, sewer and similar pub- lic improvements, which are paid for by special improvement taxes assessed directly against the property. The city tax pays the interest and the sinking funds on bonds for water and light plants and the city general share of public tmprovements, like street inter- sections. The township tax is chiefly a road tax. The school tax is used for school purposes only. The drainage tax is strictly a district tax, being assessea directly on the property directly benefited by the drainage project. “There is no system of subventions in Kansas,”’ said S. T. Howe, chairman of the State Tax Commission. ‘That is, the State does not raise money by taxation for the purpose of distribut- ting a portion thereof to the minor political subdivisions, the State tax levy being solely for State purposes. “In Kansas the personal property that gets upon the roll fs assessed at its ac- tual money value. wf cours: , more prop- erty of the kind escapes taxation than is taxed, because, in the nature of things, property that is subject to tax- ation only when the owner permits it to be done, will be omitted from the tax roll in large amounts, but this is un- Coubtedly true of other jurisdictions as well as of Kansas. “City real estate is assessed very clesely at its actual value in money. It is probable that farm lands are not as- sessed o high relatively as personal property and city real estate. Public service corporation property is also as- sessed at ‘ts actual value in money. “The State tax rate in Kansas for the three years mentioned was 12% cents per hundred dollars of assessment. The averages rate of taxation in the State for all purposes for the year 1913 was 01048995, fr the year 1914 .01103845 and for 1915 .01171334. The rates vary from approximately one-half of 1 per cent ‘n rural districts to 24 per cent in the high- est taxed city. This-last city rate is ex- ceptional, most of the city rates being below 20 mills.”’ Atchison, Leavenworth and Kansas City, Kan., are the highest taxed cities in Kansas. The total rats in these cities, including tate, county, city and school taxes, is slivitly over $2 on each $100 of valuation. The highest rate is in Kansas City,” where there is a heavy drainage tax be-ause of the improve- ment work along, the Kaw River. There are many Kansas counties where the tota] tax rate for all purposes does not reach $1 on $100 of assessment, and in many rural districts without city or drainage taxes the rate is below ™# cents.

HAWES’ CANDIDACY. Sty) ; Late vd 2s. vig ee ore: ie t picious attention of the public authorities. ‘ie Hy Tine ce poe r t fa Vee ae 1 : The substitution of a man of such great ability and force as Harry B. Hawes for “Fish” McAdams as a St. Louis Representative in the State Legis- lature seems so pleasing from the standpoint of possibility of service that there ought not to be cavil over it. But there are circumstances in connection with the man and his record which suggest question. As a young man Mr. Hawes filled a very large place in St. Louis politics. He won the title of boss. “He beat the biggest and worst Democratic boss that St. Louis ever had. He became head of the Police Department. It was a time when ma- chine bossism was rampant; when the police were in politics and all sorts of political offenses were regarded as conventional means of winning party victories. The school was bad and Mr. Hawes stood for much that was wrong that has becn in large measure eliminated since his day of party leadership. On the other hand, he did good things.

Talbert, Director of Streets and Sew- | (fie 4an ee Sse e NS PE sh SRe ga ts Bs ers, declares after a tour of inspection that St. | | Ath, Louis could save $100,000 a year on its garbage disposal methods. Allan W. Pinkerton, penologist and thief-catcher, says that he could give St. Louis @ more efficient system of police protection than the present for $500,000 a year, making a saving of $1,500,000 a year possible. So we have in one day suggestions for a saving | ;j of $1,600,000 a year to St. Louis taxpayers. Adding | *:,// the $1,200,000 which Tom Rogers says could easily | 5 be saved in salaries and wages at our overmanned city hall, we have $2,300,000 which might be kept in the pockets of the people or devoted to physical betterments of which the city is greatly in need. Unfortunately, this is only a theoretical saving. Practically the possibility of rescuing any sum even approximating this large total from the intri- cate, tax-consuming machinery of city government will give rise to no illusions in the minds of per- sons familiar with public affairs. However, some of Mr. Pinkerton’s ideas wonld tes wi ds. For pi es. careful alr, deep breathing. exercise. HEALTS HINTS. o ROSE secant ree” MRS.

After having watched the course pursued by Judge Hughes in his campaign across the nation, it is evident that he is a'good lawyer and is con- Gucting himeelf in the prosecution of his ambition just as any good lawyer {ts forced to do when he has « bed client and a desperate cause.

Folk. His defeat for the governorship nomination by Folk ended his active career in politics. Again, Mr. Hawes, by reason of his attorney- ship for Mr. August A. Busch and his vigorous leadership of the anti-prohibiton forces, has earned criticism as a representative of brewery interests and bears much of the prejudice in the public mind against any:connection between poll- tics and liquor interests. He has earned it in a larger share than others entitled to it, on account of his force and gifts of leadership. Out of office, he has contributed valuable serv- ice to St. Louis and the State. He did more than any other man to save Missouri from prohibition. He led and won a brilliant campaign for home rule in the State Legislature. He contributed much to organizing the recent successful cam- paign for good roads and to the winning of the good roads bond issues in St. Louis and other counties. He has ably supported movements for legislation in behalf of St. Louis business and to create better relations between the city and coun- try. Mr. Hawes has chosen a small office for re-en- trance into active politics—small but important rei—an office which can be made as useful as the character, ability and purpose of the man per- mit. If Mr. Hawes will sincerely and single-heartedly follow the program he outlines, thrusting aside special interests and devoting himself to ob- taining sound legislation on good roads and other progressive lines, he can make himself a tower of strength in the Legislature for both the city and State. The possibilities of disservice are as ot | great. His record and his future Ife in his own hands. = = * » ci. es We have failed to solve the ashes problem.

John Bruner, for 25 years an employe of the State prison and described as one of the most efficient members of its force, has been dismissed by Warden McClung. The cause assigned by the Warden is that the Captain criticised the manage- ment of the prison. Mr. Bruner’s courage and readiness have made him a sort of specialist in preventing the escape of. convicts or recapturing.them after they have made their escape. It appears from his explanation that his criticisms were those of one on the inside who seeks an improvement in methods rather than of one prompted by disloyalty to the institution's head. If what he did was an offense, he is numbered with a very numerous and highly respectable class of offenders. Practically everybody in Missouri is criticising the penitentiary. We may believe that he State will be deprived for only a short period of his experienced services. A new administration in the Governor’s office will mean little to the people unless it is of such spirit and sympathies as to ring about a revolution in prison policies and sub- stitute intelligence and humanity for the present Rockefeller is said to be a persistent joker, “bub- bling with wit.” If he would write a column of jokes every day for some enterprising newspaper, under his own name, it g1lght add considerably to his savings, and every poor man would buy the paper. - = - a CUTTING OUT MILE MIDDLEMEN. _ New York City aleo had a milk strike, but up State there is something Missouri does not have, a strong Dairymen’s League. : This league is now shipping 40,000 quarts of muilk a day to New York and selling it without the agency or aid of the city distributing compa- nies. A large amount of the milk is sold to gro- cers, who dispose of it to their customers, but the striking milk drivers are beginning to util- ize this opportune supply on a large scale to ob- tain milk for distribution along their former routes. — This plan for cutting out one set of. grasping middlemen is given organized support by a New York State official, for whom Missouri, unfortu- nately, has no counterpart—the Commissioner on Food. However, if the strike here continues, it suggests an effective way of fighting St. Louis’ Milk Trust. Under the system followed by some of the loca) distributing companies about all they do ig to furnish the milk. The drivers solicited new customers, kept the accounts, made the col- lections and were forced to assume responsibility for lost bottles and bad debts. With a reliable independent supply of milk, why could not many of the drivers cut off permanently all relations the work of supplying their routes? The powerful local Milk Trust has already, ~ — fap inieae 8 . Pe Bis es eee Se en have value for increasing the usefulness of the Police Department as at present organized, even if they would not avail for reducing its personnel and cost. His suggestion for placing policemen on duty in pairs and moving them in motor vehicles only carries further the very idea with which the mounted squad was instituted, Two policemen in an auto cycle could cover 10 times as much terri- tery and cover it better than a patrolman on foot. Why in a motor age should the chief reliance for prevention of crime be a slow-plodding patrol- man on a beat? Are Teutonic Wilson haters to learn to-love the Colonel? = |] --— =. SAM BLYTHE’S SATIRE. Sam Blythe’s “A Western Warwick” has been published in book form. At the time it was being printed as a serial in the Philadelphia Saturday Post, some readers saw in it a work having a pos- sibility of attaining as great favor as “Coin’s Financial School” of the 1896 campaign. This expectation has not been realized, but the tale remains one of the most readable of satires on American politics. Its characters are dis- guised and its incidents altered and exaggerated from the real incidents on which they are founded, but the work has a flavor of truth and strikes many true notes. No greater expose on the old stand-pat technique of President-making has ever been written. Some of the material of which skillful use is made might have been drawn from the present campaign, so typical are its déscrip- tions of methods by which the old guard fools the people. Its glimpses behind the scenes have instruction for thousands of unenlightened voters. One of the issues of the present campaign is whether the old system of putting things over will continue to have efficacy. If it is shown that Mr. Hitchcock as Eastern Warwick can no longer do the work which the Warwick of the West did and that Mr. Hughes cannot success- fully play the role which another ultra-respect- able man played under a different name in the book, a sad crimp would be put in the fustian and sham of the old campaigning. Perhaps one of the greatest services rendered by the Wilson ad- ministration will be to restore some of the older conceptions of President-making and destroy some of the more dishonest and ridiculous de- vices for accelerating sentiment by showing that they are so played out as not to be worth while. = =] * i i A As a war machine the airships may have to be dropped.

The luckiest of moving picture companies is one that included a submarine among its large assortment of “properties” and sent it in tow of a yacht to Miami, Fila, to render service in film manufacture. But watchful British cruisers pa- trolling the high seas sighted her, captured her as an undoubted German untersee bote far from home, and took her as a prize of war to Nassau. Of course, we must assume that her rapid-fire camera was operating all the time, preserving a picture record of what was going on. When it is understood that the capture of the property boat was probably the origin of the late report that the merchant submarine Bremen had been over- hauled and.taken to the Bahamas, it can be seen how these pictures are going to add to the gayety of nations—a veritable aquatic Charlie Chaplin series. They may serve patriotic purposes. Other ef- forts to prevent British aggressiveness on neu- tral trading having failed, why not try laughing their too vigilant naval officers .off the sea? The robber who stole $70 in dimes and nickels which Robert M. Campbell had life in a tall glass ought to be punished to the full extent of the law for this crime, and then he ought to get about three times as many years with no hope of pardon or parole for the knotty point he left be- hind for the courts. For, not wishing to carry around the burdensome and perhaps incrimi- nating dimes and nickels, he went into the laun- dry next door on Vandeventer avenue and com- pelled Jim Lee at a pistol’s point, which is even more dangerous than points of law, to exchange his subsidiary currency for full legal tender bills. Jim has the silver and nickel, but to whom do the coins belong? Campbell says that this is the identical property stolen from him and that, under the law making stolen things recoverable wher- ever found, it must be given back to him. But, in behalf of Jim it is contended that he fs not a receiver of stolen goods, that his property was taken from him and property of another form sub- stituted. No intent on the robber’s part to steal from him could be proved, and, if Campbell gets the dimes and nickels back and suffers no loss, of what crime could the robber be punished, if caught? If both carried theft ingurance, which could collect under his policy—the man who. was robbed, but suffers no loss in the event that he gets the coins back, or the man who was not robbed, but who will be ont $70? aS M5. . iia ais #); ‘“u ¥ $ pe , anftenry he SR itl ad we 3 gE RR ay x eH. we heme ta “pe! » i ” Te ; yeh 5 aA, sate "ong.

Murphy and Quinn, Graduate Stars, Will Help Coach This Year’s Eleven. ONLY Although Christian Brothers’ Col- lege is again without a paid football coach, the enthusiasts at the Easton avenue schoo} expect to have as good, if not a better team, than last year. All of the regulars of 1915, with the exception of Paul Murphy and Billy Quinn, have returned, while their places will be capably filled by new men coming from the academic elev- ens of last year. The two Essman brothers, Walter and Captain Charley, are coaching the team, assisted by Paul Murphy and Billy Quinn and several other old alumni members, These men agreed to do this in order to Keep the college game at the school. The team has been working out every night for the past two weeks and although only one game is defi- nitely settled to date, that with Hoover Institute in Taylorville, IIL, on Oct. 20, others will be arranged shortly. The Kirksville Osteopaths may be played in Kirksville next Saturday if they can arrange their games to accommodate the locals. Other battles that are almost certain are with Southern Illinois Normal and Cape Girardeau. Heavy Team Promised. This year’s purple and gold elev- en will be a heavy one, averaging between 185 and 190 pounds. Of the new men, Frank Miles, an end; Ly- ons, a halfback, who stands 6 feet 5 and weighs 190 pounds; Robson and Reilly, a quarterback, are showing up in great style. Lawrence Reilly is getting back into the game after an absence of several years. He was injured play- ing baseball and had to quit owing to trouble with his legs. He is O K now, and is expected to be the team’s ny F ular quarterback and at the school is said to be even better than Paul Murphy, who ran the team last year. A few seasons ago, when he was in his third year o high school work, he was tried out on the varsity squad. Robson, if he makes the team, will strengthen the kicking department. Essman Boys on Hand. Capt. Charley and Walter Essman will again be on duty in the line; Danny Murphy, who in a game last year ran 100 yards for a touchdown, will again play center; Long will] be at one end, while Paul Miles, if the injury he received in a baseball game last Sunday mends, will take vare of the other. , For backfield material, left over from last year, there will be Mc- Cracken and Hart, full backs and Willis, the star half back.

Time was when the picking. was good, and everyone was doing it. But not since the days when Hughey Fullerton named Fielder Jones’ White Sox to beat the Cubs—after the series was over, be it understood —has the baseball picking netted anything but lemons. All the critics are forecasts today. co “off’’ making ® And this is passing strange be- cause, on the whole, teams have per- formed fairly close to the ante-sea- gon dope. The exceptions and vwariations from the expected, however, while not affecting the outcOme of the races, have made a deep impression. The astonishing performance of the New York Giants, the surprising dash of the St. Louis Browns and the shocking violation of the ex- pected when Cleveland threatened, for a time, to win the flag, are a few instances that stand out. But whenever a critic thought he had hit upon a sure thing, disasters began to happen to his horoscopes. Barry’s Loss Did Not Hurt. OR example, when the Boston Red Sox lost Barry, the roar went. up that the Sox were through. Detroit players were already look- ing over late model machines on which to lavish their world’s series bonuses. But although Barry is not yet back in the game, and although George Foster and Gardner, teammates of Barry, also were under the weather during the critical time, the Red Sox went right on and clinched the flag. Red Sox Popular Choices. HESE little things are dis- couraging the critics from coming out and saying that the world’s championship series is as good as settled before it is played. It is probably the belief of nine-tenths of the close fol- lowers of baseball in the country that Boston will wipe up Braves’ Field, and Ebbets’ lot, too, if the Dodgers win the pennant, But, hark from the tombs! Scarcely a chirp out of the crit- ics, who have now entered. the prehistoric stage, along with the pterodactyl and the Cardinals’ pennant hopes. ‘ F Aha! Here We Have ‘It! HERE are two lone and moulting survivors of the “picking” cult, but they are not pure specimens. There’s Hughey Fullerton who, aided by an add- ing machine, is trying to lay the blame on figures. hen there's the man behind Christy Mathew- son, who makes him come forth wit a conditional prediction, while holding a string to it, ready to snatch it back, when anybody reaches out to.take it in. risty’s words are to the ef- fect that if the Robins don’t win, the Red Sox ought to. He says, in substance: “I want to go on record as say- ing thaf Brooklyn has a fifty- fifty chance with the Red Sox in the world’s series, if they should be the finalists.” He points out that the Robins either burn up *he neighborhood or run like a sick hound; which may be construed as substantiating or knock- ing his assertion about , Just as you want to take it. 1916 Red Sox Appear Weaker. . XPRESSIONS now heard in this city are unfavorable to Brooklyn's representing the National League, as compared to either the Phils or the Braves. The liack of steadiness in the Dodgers’ make-up seems to have left an unfavorable tmpression, But if Marquard and Coombs can come through with pitching such as they have shown recently, we can see where even the Robins might not be not be totally disgraced. Barry is not expected to be in the series games; Foster is still not at his best.

And that Carrigan steered it through is almost as remarkable a feat as that of John MeGraw, who in mid-season broke up a club that won 17 straight and molded another that won 26 in a row. & eo o In fact, the 1916 Miracle Man honors seem about equally di- vided between Carrigan and the “little Napoleon” (used under the authority of Baseball Writers’ License No. 18674.) As a matter of fact; Carrigan’s club SEEMS no weaker than last om, although it: has suffered osses in hitting, pitching and brains departments. It is considered to be the BIG MACHINE in a faster league than the National, And this is as close as we care to go to pulling a comeback from the prehistoric Clairvoyant times. | MISS ANN LIONBERGER AGAN CITY CHAMPION Her Victory Over Miss Arnstein Clinches St. Louis Tennis Title.

Sharpe, Heferee for the Future City A. C, After receiving a deep gash over his left eye in the eighth round of last night’s Future City main event, Lonnie Tucker of Ardmore, OK., went to his corner and counseled with his sister, Miss Elizabeth Tucker. The young lady called me to her side and conceded defeat, giving the victory to “Battling” Reddy of New York City. Miss Tucker explained that she wanted to take no chances of im- pairing her brother’s eyesicht, and considered the wound too dangerous to permit him to continue. She had her way, though, in justice to young Tucker, it must be said that he opb- jected strenuously to the bout being forfeited and wanted to continue, Miss Tucker tried to make her reasons known to the crowd, but in the disorder that revailed | a doubtful if she was heard by a dozen persons. The crowd last night was no respecter of sex, and the remarks hurled at Miss Tucker were about the same that usually greet an unfortu- rilate loser and his manager. Bout Proved Rough Fight. So far as concerns the bout itself, perhaps the less said the better, for if all the disagreeable truth were told about it, it would furnish good argument for putting a stop to Dox- ing in St. Louts. It was not boxing at all. It was a fight, and a rough one at that, in which clinching, hold- ing, hitting while holding and lay- ing on played a prominent part. Fhe rules in this particular were de- liberately and flagrantly abused. Neither boxer made the slightest pretense to ob- serve the instructions they agreed to be- fore the bout was started. Crowd Displeased at Reddy. Reddy made himself unpopular with the crowd in the very first round, and from that time on the little sympathy manifested was for Tucker. At the end of the first round I went to Reddy's corner and advised him to step back out of the clinches and to cease hitting while holding. That started an argu- ment, and Manager Montieth said he didn’t want any “grandstand stuff’’ pulled on him. ‘ In what proved to be the last round, the eighth, Reddy was forced agairist the ropes on the east side of the ring. Suddenly he stepped aside and swung Tucker around, with the result that the latter went tumbling through the ropes to the floor. He was assisted to the platform and into the ring and declared that he had not been injured and was ready to go on. Then he and Reddy went to it in good old-fashioned style and in the melee their heads crashed together and Tucker received the cut over the eye that put an end to the bout. It was one of the most disagreeable settos it was ever my misfortune to referee, and the crowd of about 400 persons seeined pretty thoroughly disgusted at its conclusion, Tucker Made the Match. It appears that Tucker took matters into his own hands and made the match without consuiting his sister. who is supposed to supervise all ring affairs for her brothers. Miss ucker declares that she did not know of the match until last Saturday night while in-Oklahoma City, .. and she hur- ried from there to St. Louls, arriving here Sunday afternoon. She says she then tried to have the match called off or postponed, but was persuaded, much against her wishes, to let it go on. There were three preliminary bouts last night, and a four-round one between ‘‘Hap- pyv’'’ Howerd and Pete Macklin was the best of the lot. It was won by Howard, Prior to this bout Howard had _ knocked out ‘“Young’’ Griffo with a punch to the stomach in the first round. An eight-round bout which took place be- tween ‘‘Young’’ Leach Cross and ‘‘Young’’ Lundy was a burlesque. The latter was merely a punching bag that Crosse could have punched a great deal harder had he been of a mind to, but Leach contented him- self with a lot of light tapping that permit- ted Lundy to last the limit.

Considerably more was — up to June 30 than during all of 1915, the Census Bureau announced today in its first report giving statistics called for by the new law requiring quarterly reports of raw and prepared cotton and linters, cot- ton waste and hull fiber consumed in the manufacture of gun cotton and explosives of all kinds. After a careful canvas the Census Bureau, compte? returns from 178 estab- lishments, which showed that 244,003 bales, equivalent 5600-pound bales of bleached cotton fibre, were used during last year, 144,988 bales during the quar- ter ending March 31. 1916. and 142,725 pasar during the quarter ending June’ 30, 191 te C2OS ONO DS Prepared cotton held by manufacturers of explosives at the end of last year amounted to 80,483 bales, equivalent 500- bales at the end of arch, 18,933 bales, and at the end of June 22,895 ales. It is disclosed by the reports to the bureau that the loss in pescning cotton for nitrating purposes varied considerably, but was between 30 and 4) per cent. Based on an average loss of 35 per cent, the gross weight of cotton fibre used in explosives manufacture was 375,000 bales, rt oh ae de 600-pound bales last year, 00 bales for the first quarter this year and 220,000 bales for the second quar- ter. While a few explosive manufacturers were found to bleach all or a part of the cotton fiber used by them, it appeared to be the general practice to purchase the fiber already prepared, so the statistics were prepared on that basis.
