The National League pennant winners hoped to overcome the Bostons today that they might go back to and face the home folks on their own bal] yard with an even break with the champion American Leaguers. The batteries were: For Boston, Ruth and Thomas; for Brook- lyn, Smith and Miller. Toward game time the sky became overcast with thunderheads that gave a threat of showers. The weather was hot and sticky. The ball players, how- ever, found the day to their liking and ‘especially the outfielders, who had often in Saturday’s game lost the ball in the glare of the sun that today was hidden behind clouds. The crowd came late. There were early 30,000 persons would witness the game. First Inning. BROOKLYN—Johnston flied out to Walker, after the count was 3 and 4. Daubert fouled out to Gardner, who had ‘to run to the home bench to make the eatch. Myers drove a iong hit to the center field fence for a home run, The crowd gave him a big cheer. Myers had crossed the plate before the ball was returned to the infield.

The cornerstone of the new Post-Dis- patch building, at the northeast corner of Twelfth and Olive streets, was laid at 1:05 o’clock this afternoon. The sil- ver trowel, with which the formal act of laying the stone was performed, was wielded by Joseph Pulitzer III, 3% years old, grandson and namesake of the founder of the Post-Dispatch and son of Joseph Pulitzer Jr., president of the Pulitzer Publishing Co. The trowel was the same with which Joseph Pulitzer Jr., then 4 years. old, laid the corner-: stone of the Pulitzer building; the home of the News York World, Oct, 10, 1889. The ceremony was attended principal- ly by members of the Post-Dispatch staff, and by those having part in the construction of the building. Mayor Kiei and United States Senator Reed made short addresses. Their talks were fol- lowed by the dedicatory address of Jo- seph Pulitzer Jr., who quoted the words sent by his father as a message on the occasion of the Pulitzer Building corner stone laying in New York. Senator Reed Introduced. In introducing Senator Reed, the first speaker, Mr. Pulitzer said: ‘“‘Ladies and Gentlemen: On behalf of the Post-Dispatch and as its represent- ative at this little ceremony, I thank you heartily for your presence. ‘We are honored by having with us today two gentlemen who, as: repre- sentatives in the one case of the State and Nation, and in the other of the city of St. Louis, have been good enough to. help us to lay this corner stone. I take pleasure in introducing first, the Hon. James A. Reed, United States Senator for Missouri.”’ Senator Reed said the occasion marked a forward step of a great newspaper, which has done much for St. Louis and the nation. : “Nothing is more typical of American- 3 % POST-DISPATGH alone ....

Her captain said he had turned back in response to the signals of distress from the West Point, but finding that his assistance was not required he proceeded to Boston. Stephane Richest Prize. The richest prize bagged by the Ger- mans yesterday was the passenger liner Stephano, which had just rounded the cast end of Nantucket when she fell prey to a submarine. The vessel, Brit- ish-owned, was on her regular trip from St. Johns, N. F., to New York by way of Halifax and carried 83 passengers, in- cluding 3 Americans. Twenty-six of the latter were making the round trip on the steamer from New York. The Steph- ano valued at $400,000 when she was launched three years ago. She carried also a cargo of codfish, codfish of! and seal oil, consigned to the United States and South America, and valued at $1,- 000. Her naval value was due to the faci that she had been sold to the Russian Government and was soon to be uséd as an ice breaker. Activities: Begun at Daylight. Submarine activities began at daylight Sunday, three miles east of Nantucket lightship, when the American steamer Kansan was sighted and signaled ‘to stop. When the submarine commander was satief'od that she was an Americas vessel he allowed her to proceed. The submarine then moved in close te ‘Newport News, with a warning shot. This was at a point 10 miles south of the lightship. The crew took to the Loats anad the submarine torpedoed ani serk the steamer. | No other vessel was encountered un- til late In the afterncen. At 4:38 p. m, - six miles southeast ot the Mghtehip, the German stopped the Stephano, Taract- - gers and crew were taken off in ‘Be ship's boats and the Germans sank the” liner. The submarine moved off wit*l)-7 out waiting for the Stephano to ge down and she remained afloat vuat.l 10:0 o'clock last night. Near sunset the Britis! steame* Kingstonian came within view of the lookout on the submersible. The same procedure was followed as with ther other vensels and at 6 p. m. the K -tonian went down a short distance southeast of the lightship.

The West Point also was ‘able to flash oft brief messages giving | “sword of her plight before she was aban- U.aoned ‘by her crew. These dispatches were piched up at Newport and a fleet of United States torpedoboat destroyers was immediately ordered out to pick ap tho crews. Throughout the day and nigh: the de- stroyers cruised in the waters for sev- era! miles around the Nantucket Light- ship, receiving word from time to time of the sinking of additional vessels. They located the survivors of all the vessels known to have been destroyed except the Kingston, and iook them aboard. The crew of the Strathdene had previously been sheltered on the Lightship. Immediately after the distress calls from the West Point were picked up at Newport, Admiral Cleaves ordered out the destroyer fleet to give assistance. The Jarvis, one of the fastest of the fleet, being capable of making 31 knots, had steam up and was one of the first _ to get away. She sailed shortly before 1:30 o’clock. Following the Jarvis, as rapidly as steam could be made, went the destroyers Drayton, Ericsson, O’Brien, Benham, Cassin, Balch, McCall, Porter, Fanning, Winslow, Aylwin, Cushing, Cummings, Paulding and Con- ynham, and the tender Melville. Trip ef UsBeat Dramatic. No legendary “flying Dutchman” - ever was the center of so much mys- tery or the cause of so much specula- tion or lived so true to the tradition of being the forerunner of marine mis- haps as the German war submarine U-s3 which dropped dramatically into New- port harbor Saturday afternoon. Capt. Rose, her commander, said he was 1? days out from Wilhelmshaven and had come in to mail a letter to Ambassador von Bernstorff. There Was an exchange of visits be- tween him and American naval offi- cers. Visitors were allowed to board the submersible to look at her two euns—one mounted forward: and the other aft—and to view the torpedoes stored beneath the forward deck. Pro- fessional sea fighters of the United States navy and others were alike given ‘ample opportunity to see that’ the sub- ‘marine was no phanton. Her stay in port was scarcely more than three hours. She took on no fuel, no food, no water, not even a pipeful of tobacco. “‘We have ample supplies of all we want,” said her officers. At dusk she pointed her nose out of the harbor and in the deep water off - Brenton’s Reef Lightship submerged, ‘nd for a few hours all trace of her was lost. Identity of U-Boat in Doubt. The Kansan arrived here today. Capt. . BE. L. Smith and members of the crew said they were unable to determine the _ identity of the undersea boat, no name » or number being visible. Some of the . crew, however, when shown a photo- | graph of the U-53 which put into New- / port on Saturday, declared the subma- rine which stopped the Kansan was of another type, having a different ar- rangement of masts. Capt. Smith said the Kansan left New » York.at 10 a, m, Sunday, bound for St. Nazaire, France and Genoa, by way of Boston, where she was to call to take Oh @ cargo of horses for the allies. In + her hold were 6500 tons of iron and steel ' intended for use in the manufacture of _ munitions for the allies. | At 4:30 Sunday morning when the Kan- an was three miles south of the Nan- _ tucket lightship, the captain heard a ’ shot. He ordered the vessel stopped, but before the engines came to a full rest @ second shot was fired. The submarine then appeared off her bow. A youthful German officer came on the deck of the submarine and asked where the Kansan * was bound. Capt. Smith sent Chief Of- ficer Hugh McNamara to the submarine in a ship’s boat with the Kansan’s pa- pers. The. examination of the papers . by the submarine’s commander occupied about an hour. After McNamara had ' returned to his ship, the German officer signaled that the Kansan might proceed. Hears Weat Point Is Being Sunk. About an hour later the wireless op- erator on the Kansan picked up a mes- _ sage that the steamer West Point was ~ being sunk. The captain had reversed his engines to go to her assistance, when other wireless messages announced that several torpedo boat destroyers ) were proceeding to the aid of the Weat ' Point. The Kansan was then headed for Boston, anchoring below last night and ; coming up to her dock this morning. Besides carrying the American flag. the Kansan had an American flag 10 | teet long painted on her side with the ' mame of the ship in large letters, fol- . lowed by “U. 8S, A.” German Pledges Untt wtta ~ Submarine Wasteos, ” On Sept. 1, 1914, Germany, through | Ambassador von Bernstorff, gave to _ the United States, during the diplo- matic negotiations that followed the @inking of the Lusitahia and the Arabic, the following pledge, touch- ing the fate of ocean liners, enemy or otherwise, that might be overhauled by German submarines: , “finers will not be sunk by ouf ‘submarines without warning and without safety of non-combatzeats, ‘provided that the liners do not try _to escape or offer resistance, _ On May 6, 1916, Foreign Secretary shew Jagow gave the following sweep- _ \ ships: ing pledge, concerning merchant Ris: 1 “In accordance with the general _ principles of visit and search and the destruction of merchant vessels re- _ | cognized by international law, such Vvesselg both within and without the ?

PASSENGERS ee SCENES ON SHIPS WHICH GERMAN SU BMARINE SANK tin Order Prevailed on Board and ‘Time Was Given to Enter Boats— One Vessel Sent to Bot- tom by Opening Sea Cocks Only. NEWPORT, R. I., Oct. 9.—Eyewitness stories of the torpedoing of passenger and freight steamers by German subma- rines off Nantucket yesterday were told here today. According to 4 report brought by officers of a flotilla of United States destroyers which picked passengers and crews of several of the vessels destroyed, nine merchant ships were sunk. One of the submarines is supposed to have been the U-53, which visited this harbor Saturday and anoth- er was declared to be the U-61L. Mrs. Henry B. Wilson of Williams- town, Mass., a passenger on the Ste- phano, one of the vessels sunk, said that an officer and several of the crew told her that they had distinctly seen the name UW-61 on the submarine that at- tacked their ship. One of the destroyer Balch’s crew said that he saw a German supply ship at- tending the submarine. The American destroyers witnessed the destruction of some of the vessels. In one instance the American boats were so thick on the scene that the German submarine com- mander asked the destroyers Benham and McDougall to make way for him to blow up his prey. Gets Names of Rescued. Admiral Albert Gleaves, commander of the destroyer fleet, announced today that he had obtained the names of ap- proximately 220 persons, including 03 women and 10 children, rescued trom five of the six steamers known to have been torpedoed. This list did not take into account the crew of the British steamer Kingston, which was still miss- ing at 10 o’clock today. All hands had been saved, the Ad- miral said, from the steamers West Point, Strathdene, Bloomersdijk, Chris- tian Knudsen and Stephano, Several of sel, but old, slow, and indeed, she was about to be scrapped out of existence when the war began. She was built in 1903 with displacement of 14,000 tons, two 92 guns and 16 6-inchers. The protected cruiser Niobe is also at- tached to the Halifax station. She is a four funnel protected cruiser of the first class, and waa built for fast scout- ing. She carries a crew of 350. Her armament consists of 16 6-inch guns and some rapid firers. There was another cruiser apparent- ly of this same class scouting the coasts of Novia Scotia and Newfoundland. Then there was a smaller cruiser called the Briton, whose description is not given in the current naval lists. These four vessels comprised the Brit- ish fighting forces of any size on the North Atlantic station. French Cruiser Said to Be Hastening te Scene of U-Boat Activity. NEW' YORK, Oct. 9.—A French cruiser, believed to be the Conde, was off the New Jersey coast hurrying northward last night, according to officers of the Danish steamship Olaf, which arrived here today from British Honduras. The Frenchman spoke the Olaf, the officers said, warning her that German sub- marines were operating off the Ameri- can coast. Norwegian Ship Is Torpedoed in the Aretioc, LONDON, Oct. 9.—The Norwegian steamer Roney has been torpedoed in the Arctic. Her crew was landed, ac- cording to a Reuter’s dispatch from Chrigtiana. The dispatch says that it is feared that the Norwegian steamer Vik- ing has met a similar fate in the Arctic, as wreckage with her name on has been washed ashore. . British Using Armored Motor Cars im Macedonia, SOFTA, Oct. 9.—On the Struma front the British are using armored motor cars, the War Office announced yester- day. In Dobrudja Russian and Ruma- nian forces are said to have retired. PARIS, Oct. 9.—One of the largest Austrian warships blew up recently at Pola, according to a press dispatch from Zurich. The dispatch says refugees from Dalmatia brought the news to Switzerland. They did not know the cause of the explosion. —_— NO SECRET ABOUT VINOL The Complete Formula of This Great Tonic, Strength Creator Is Printed on Every Label.

S.. Steel and " Merchantile Marine Drop Several Points. ———————, NEW YORK, Oct. 9.—The stock mar- ket was demoralized at today’s opening, standard issues as well as war stocks breaking 5, 10 and even 12 points, at the outset, on enormous liquidation. The break was attributed to the German sub- marine activities and their possible con- sequences. After the most exciting half-hour seen in the stock market since the panic of 1907, the tide of liquidation was stemmed by heavy volume of buying orders re- ported to have been sent to the market by important banking interests. The foremost feature was United States Steel on an offering of 30,000 shares at 112 to 109, representing a loss over the week-end of slightly more than Lad 7 points. The Mercantile Marine issues, common and preferred, were lower by 7% to 12 points. Distinctive munitions, such as New York Airbrake, Baldwin Locomo- tive, Industrial Alcohol, Westinghouse, Crucible Steel, Studebaker and Pressed Steel Car yielded 3 to 8 points. Even standard railway stocks such as Union Pacific were subjected to tremen- dous selling pressure, Union losing al- most 6 points with declines of 2 to 6 points in others of that group. Secondary prices showed no improve- ment over initial offerings, in some in- stances lower level being reached. A wave of selling hit the cotton mar- ket, causing a break of from 8 to 323 points from Saturday’s close. Big Drop in Wheat and Provisions in Chicago. CHICAGO, Oct. 9.—Submarine activit,’ resulted today in a downward crash of wheat values. The break right at the start amounted to 4% gents a bushel in some cases, Dec. falling to $1.5 as compared with $1.5944 at Saturday’s fin- ish. Prices of corn, oats ala provisions also fell, but not to so radical a degree as in the case of wheat. Greatly increased difficulty in mak- ing exports was the generally accepted reason for ali the declines. a the boats were barely 100 yards from the steamer when the first shot was fired at her by the submarine. An- other was discharged soon afterward and later a bomb was fired. “While we were being taken on to the Ericsson,” he continued, “the submarine came up within 25 or 30 yards of us and continued without signal or salute. It took us 15 min- utes to get aboard the Eericsson.”’ Mrs. Henry B. Wilson of Williams- town, Mass., said that the passengers were going to dinner when someone told them that there were destroyers all around the steamer and that a sub- marine was nearby. hey thought all of these were American boats until the German flag was seen on the undersea ship. Three shots were fired across the bow of the Stephano, Mrs. Wilson said. The steamer was stopped and all were ordered to take to the boats. The pas- sengers did not have time to go to their staterooms and saved none of théir personal belongings. The sea was calm and all were trans- ferred to the destroyer Ericsson with- out difficulty. The Ericsson, she said, was nearly out of sight of the Stephano when the liner sank. Miss Mary Griffin of Placentia, New Foundland, said: “We had just had dinner and most of the passengers were below when we heard shots and ran on deck and saw a submarine a short distance away. A United States de- stroyer was in sight. The submarine fired three shots from one of her. deck guns. She appeared not to be trying to hit the Stephano, but the third shot was so Close We felt the jar. There was a little confusion as the boats were lowered, but officers and crew quieted the excited ones and we all got into boats—there were five boat loads—30 women and children were aboard the ships. We were in the small boats about 146 minutes before being picked up... We didn’t hear or see a torpedo fired. But as we steamed away the Stephano seemed to be sinking. We did not see any other submarine or any of the other ships which were at- tacked, though we heard that several had been sunk and there was great ex- citement. An English cruiser appeared off shore while we were aboard the Ericsson. She was too far out to make out her name, but the officers told us that there was no question but that she was an English cruiser.” Submarine in No Apparent Haste. Capt. Fred 8. Riley, connected with the Moran ToWing and Transportation Co. of New York, who was on board the Stephano, said that the submarine moved about in no apparent haste, within easy sight of the destroyer Ericsson while the latter was picking up the Stephano’s passengers and crew who were adrift in four boats. A, Tough of Ontario, another passenger, said the submarine slipped in between the Ericsson and Stephano at one time and was only 25 or 3) yards from the destroyer. ‘It was 6 o’clock Sunday night when the submarine fired two shots across the bows," Capt. Moran said. “One was | a blank, I believe, the other a shell. Capt. Smith of the Stephano ordered decks cleared) and lifeboats lowered and all was placed in readiness, without un- due excitement.

One of the most important stéam- and American vessels, the international Mercantile Steamship Co., issued orders that no British ships of that line should leave Atlantic ports pending further or- ders. Marine insurance rates from Americaa to English ports today jumped 1 to 6 per cent in consequence of the German submarine operations. Rates to Havre and Bordeaux increased from % and % of 1 per cent to 5 per cent. Some brokers were asking for Trans- atlantic insurance as high as 10 per cent and others refused to quote rates at all. To South Arierica and the Panama Canal the rates advanced from % and % of 1 per cent to 2 per cent. The quotaiions marked the biggest ad- vance in rates since that which followed the news of the operations of the Ger- man raider Moewe in tke South Atlantic, when they advanced from \% of 1 per cent to 5 per cent. This order stopped the sailings of all sieamers of the White Star, Atlantic Transpor#@, Leyland, Dominion and Red Star lines, and the vessels of the White Star-Dominion lines sailing for Mona- treal and Quebec, The order will not interfere with the sailing of the Ameri- can Line steamships or any of the com- pany’s vessels under the American flag. Officials of the Cunard, French and of the Italian lines declared that their pas- senger and freight vessels would sail as usual despite the submarine menace. At the Cunard line offices it was announced that no changes would be made in the sailing dates of steamers until instruc- tions were received from the main office in Liverpool. All Cunard vessels, it was pointed out, are armed with 4.7-inch guns and the German submarines thus far have avoid- ed vessels so armed. The French liners carry 3%-inch guns and the freight boats carry 3-inch rapid- fire cannon. The steamers under the Italian flag mount 3-inhe guns.

And in the ab- sence of my father, who was Ill in Europe, the cornerstone was laid by ™y- self, at a few months less than foul years of age. And as the stone of that World Building was laid by Joseph Pulitzer Jr., 3 years old, so it seems fit- ting and proper that the stone of this St. Louis Post-Dispatch Building should today, 27 years later, be laid by another Joseph Pulitzer, also 3 years old, a St. Louisan born and bred, my son, Joseph Pulitzer III.

As they applied to the World building then, so they apply to the Post-Dispatch building now. And in that spirit I adapt them to our pur- pose today.

God grant that the Post-Dispatch may forever strive toward the high- est ideals—be both a daily school- house and a daily forum, both a daily teacher and a daily tribune, an in- strument of justice, a terror to crime, an aid to education, an ex- ponent of true Americanism.

Watson. Pitta- luga died in Italy, last August. He had lived in St. Louls, on Lindell avenue, east of Grand avenue, until 3 years ago. The lot is 31% feet on Locust street and 116 feet on Eighth street. It was, leased by Pittaluga, in 1880, to Mr. and Mrs. William D. Griswold for % years, the consideration being a rental of @ year. The lease is now held by the Mercan- tile Trust Co., which pays the Pittaluga estate the $1500 yearly rental. The Mer- cantile acquired the lease geveral years ago, when it purchased from John F, comprise the bank’s site. It was stated at the trust company today that the consideration was about $200,000, Administrator Watson thinks the Pit- taluga lot is worth about $230,008 .On a basis of $5000 a foot it would be worth $157,500.

Thirteen hundred men picked up by a Brench cruiser and landed in boats on the southern coast of Sardinia have been accounted for thus far. in KRONSTADT GIVEN UP BY RUMANIANS LONDON, Oct. 9.—According to the Times correspondent at Rumanian head- quarters Rumanian retreat along the whole line in Transylvania except in the Marcos Valley is due to the fact that several division had been taken from Transylvania for the defense of Do- brudja. The arrival of heavy Austro- German reinforcements is also quoted as a factor. The Rumanian forces now hold the line from Predil Pass, south of Brasso, tu Orsova and the intervening line of lofty mountains traversed by few de- files and offering a strong natural de- fensive front. North of Brasso the Ru- manians are still in the Maros Valley and in touch with the Russian left wing ‘It is undeniable,’’ adds the corre- spondent, “that the military situation presents many difficulties or the Ru- manians as they are fighting on two fronts against seasoned troops who are supplied with every modern apparatus of war.” . Berlin yesterday announced the cap- ture of the city of Kronstadt in the southeastern part of Transylvania and its leading industrial and commercial center, which was occupied by the Ru- manians shortly after their entry into the war. The German statement said: Transylvania: The Rumanians are yielding on the whole Eastern front. The allied (Teutonic) troops have forced an exit from the Geister Forest in the Ait Valley and a fresh advance threw the enemy further back. “‘Kronstadt (Brasso) has been taken. “Army group of Field Marshal von Mackensen (Dobrudja): Military works northwest of Bucharest were attacked by our flying squadrons and bombs were dropped.”’ Bucharest admitted retreat in the of- ficial statement of yesterday as follows: “Northern front: In the Alt Valley of the Transylvanian: Plain, in the re- gion of Hermannstadt, Fogaras and Brasso, in,the face of very superior enemy forces, principally Germans, the Rumanian forces have been cleverly withdrawn to strategic positions in the- Carpathian frontier, to insure a strong defense of the four passes leading from ’ Rumania to Brasso. - All evidence shows that the Austro-Germans are bringing troops from all other fronts in order to make a desperate coup in this region. “According to the latest news, the Rumanians’ offensive has already been resumed in the Jiul Valley and Caineni Pass in the direction of Hermannstadt. “Southern front of Dobrudja: The sit- uation is satisfactory; the Russians and Rumanians are advancing southward.” Allies Worried About Rumania. The London Times sounds a- warning against undue jubilation over the prog- ress of the allies on the Western front. It gives two reasons why successes {n this theater should not be overrated: ' first, the possible perils of Rumania, to whom it is difficult to furnish direct help and second, the failure of the allies to sever the German road to the east, the creation of which was the principal object for which Germany went to war.” After characterizing as serious the sit- uation on the Rumanian front revealed by the recent communiques, the paper passes on to the German grip on the read from Belgrade to Constantinople. “Until this German road through the alkans is severed,”’ the Times says, “the enemy may be said to retain the main prizes for which they drew their sword.

Chrismer at Inquset “ays Chief Abused Firemen at Christian Brothers College. HAD HEATED ARGUMENTS Policeman Says Men Were Or- dered to Either Enter Build- ing or Go Home. Testimony that Fire Chief Henderson cursed and abused firemen who were unwilling to enter the Christian Brothers College building rotunda, where six of them lost their lives in Thursday morn- ine’s fire, was given at the opening ses- sign of the Coroner’s inquest, this morn- ing, by Police Sergt. Octa N. Chrismer, who was in charge of policemen at the fire. Sergt. Chrismer testified that, a con- siderable time before the fall of the in- terior wall which killed the firemen, he saw Henderson near a ladder on the north side of the building, ordering the men to go in. When the men moved slowly, Chrismer said, the chief called}. them “damned cowards,” and said, “If you don’t want to go in there, you can go on home.”’ He said he saw one fire- man running from the chief, who was abusing him as a coward and telling him to go home. Christmer, in his testimony, did not set a definite time for this incident, more than to ‘say that it was between 8:30 and 10:30 a. m. He did not make it clear whether, at that time, the men were still needed in the building for fire fighting, or whether the fire was then under control. He set the time of the wall’s fall at 11:30. Complained to Captain. Hie said that when he told Capt. Gaff- ney of the Page boulevard station, of | Henderson’s abusive language toward the firemen and, later, toward himself, he and Gaffney agreed that he should make the facts public only in case he should be required to. He told, in considerable detail, of a heated argument between Chief Hen- derson and himself, which occurred aft- er the wall fell. He said he went into the rotunda, amid the debris, and was ordering out persons who h-d entered, when Henderson stopped him with, ‘‘Get to hell out of here and attend to your own damned business.”’ He said he went out, ordering in- truders on his way, and that later Henderson called him back ‘into the rotunda and said, “Bring a bunch of your men in and keep this crowd out.”’ Chrismer replied, he testified, that policemen could enter if they wished, but he added, “I'll not drive my men into this trap.’’ Then, he said, Hen- derson angrily replied: “You refuse to obey my orders? You forget I’m your superior officer at the time of a fire.” Chrismer said Henderson took hold of his shield, and that he told Henderson to take his hands off the badge, “or I'd knock him loose,” whereupon he said Henderson said, “You beat it, or I'll kick you out.” The Sergeant, when questioned further, said he heard no firemen complain of treatment by Henderson. He said he heard Henderson use abusive language to two firemen. Asked by Assistant Cir- cuit Attorney McDaniels to give Hender- son's exact language, , Chrismer said Henderson exclaimed to one fireman: “Damn it, go home. You are a coward.” Henderson called another fireman a cur, Chrismer testified. This occurred after the wall had fallen, Cartenter said in response to a question —— —— o> EGZEMA ITCHED AND BURNED GONSTANTLY Used Resinol—Soon Entirely Cured Mar. 10.—‘‘I had itching eczema for almgst four years.

Chrismer said Chief Henderson was ex- cited and appeared to nave lost control of himself. He said he saw firemen carrying pie- tures and bric-a-brac out of the build- ing before the wall fell. He said two of the Christian Brothers asked him to place policemen in the rotunda to look out for vandals. Chrismer refused this request as he thought it unsafe, he said, but placed men at each. entrance. Spectators were helping firemen with the hose in the building, Chrismer said, and when he protested, the firemen in- sisted that the men be let alone. He said he put the men out of the build- ing after the line had been placed. Patrolman George Nicholson testi- fied that he heard Henderson. order firemen into the building through the north entrance, but heard no abusive language. It was not brought out when the men were ordered in. Three more policemen testified that they heard no abusive language from Henderson, and that they did not see anybody strike a fireman. Patrolman John Woods said he was stationed at the northeast side of the building to keep spectators away from a leaning chimney. Under this chim- ney, he said, several firemen were un- coupling hose,, when Chief Henderson came around to them’ and said: Using Abusive Language. “Come on, you —— ——, get that hose up there.”’ Woods said he heard the Chief use the word ‘“‘coward” also, but was not clear as to just how it was used. This was about 10:15 o’clock, before the wall had fallen. He said Henderson ap- peared greatly excited. He said he was not near when the firemen went into the building. Says Chief Struck Man. | James P. Kane of 1218A North Sarah street, who said he was a former fire- man, and who has charge of parking automobiles at baseball parks, appeared as a volintary witness. He said to re- porters, while waiting to be called to the stand, that he would testify to hav- ing heard Chief Henderson abuse Lieut. Budde of Truck Co. 19, who was killed in the accident shortly afterward, for his reluctance to go into the building. He said he saw Henderson strike Budde in the face, to enforce his orders. “I Know both Henderson and 4 Budde,” Kane said. “Forty minutes before the wall fell, I saw Henderson at the rear of the building, near the kitchen. Some of the firemen, par- ticvlarly Lieut. Budde, demurred when they were ordered to go in, and lI heard Henderson say to Budde, ‘You Coward! Damn you, get in there!” And hestruck him on the left side of the face with -his first.-- “T was talking to a son of Driver O’Brien of 43’s engine, and he said, ‘My father’s just gone in there.’ ‘What did they send him in there for, when the fire’g out?’ I asked him.” $10,317 Contributed at Mass Meeting Toward Rebuilding College. Contributions amounting to $10,317.70 to aid in rebuilding Christian Brothers College were made at a mass meeting on the college campus, presided over by Archbishop Glennon, yesterday aft- ernoon. With the subscriptions pledged at Saturday's meeting at the Mercantile Club this increased the fund total to $28,517.70. An effort is being made to raise at least $150,000. A meeting of the fund committee will be held at the Marquette Hotel tonight to discuss further plans for increas- ing the fund. Special collections for the benefit of the college were taken up in all Catholic churches in St. Louis yes- terday. Festus J. Wade called yesterday's mass meeting to order and told of the educational work which the Christian Brothers had carried out against great financial odds. Archbishop Glennon described the brothers’ work as a “continual benedic- tion’’ and said the college had been the crown of St. Louis, topographically, re- ligiously and “educationally. The larg- est contribution was a $5000 check from a contributor who, desired that his name should not be made public. William J. Kinsella and the Rev. J. J. O’Rourke, pastor of St. Mark’s Church, contributed $500 each. Contributions of $250 were made by R. F. McNally and Michael E, Smith. Mrs. Jane M. Leahy and.the Rev. William F. Galvin gave $200 each.

Today, the forty-fifth anniversary of the date of the great Chicago fire, which resulted in the destruction of 17,430 build- ings and many lives and involved a property loss of $168,000,000, is Fire Pre- vention Day. It is being observed in St. Louis by exercises in the high schools, where Fire Chief Henderson and members of the Fire Prevention Committee of the Business Men’s Beague addressed the pupils, by fire drills in many stores and factories and the run- ning of the city fire apparatus through the streets. The dav is being observed in many states and fire prevention bureaues all over the countrv have scattered fire prevention literature broadcast through- out the country. A pamphlet calling attention to things which freauentlv cause fires has been circulated among the stores and fac- tories of St. Louis bv the local Fire Prevention Bureau. Persons in charge of stores and fac- tories are warned as to the dangers of carelessness and advised how to prevent fires. The pamphlet sets forth that the fire loss in the United States“and Can- ada averages $250.000.000 annually. or about half the cost of construction of new buildings. and that the loss is al- most seven times as large as that of Europe. The advice of the officials of the pre- vention bureaus to housewives in pre- venting fires is chiefly for the removal from the house of all rubbish and un- used furniture and the careful use of matches. Many fires, they say, are the direct re- sult of the storing of old furniture, espe- cially upholstered furniture, in attics. One-third of all fires, they say, are caused by the careless use of matches. It is estimated 10,000 matches are scratched every second of the day in the United States and each match is a pos- sible fire.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.—A house-to- house campaign throughaqut the nation is being planned by the War Depart- ment to obtain the 100,000 regular army recruits it will be necessary to enlist annually hereafter to keep the army up to the strength authorized by Congress in the reorganization and appropriation bills. According to a new made public today, ‘“‘to meet demanda for the present and the immediate fu- ture, the recruiting service must be ca- pable of furhishing annually an aver- age of one recruit per thousand of pop- ulation, and this result can be accom- plished only by canvassing every acces- sible locality in the United States and establishing through the aid of avail- able Postmasters a conveniently locat- ed recruiting agency for each small area.”’ Tables have been prepared to show re- cruiting offices the exact number of re- cruits who should be obtained in each county and the number of men of the recruiting service to be sent to each county will be determined by the popu- lation.

Storing of damp hay is also a great risk. A match in damp hay will sometimes set a hay- stack ablaze within three hours, tests have proven. Gasoline has become one of the chief causes of fire with the increased use of motor cars, and rules are set down for the storing and handling of gasoline. pe? . ‘ i , “ mm ey. ae Oe ae i te, 3 2 o HERE FOR CONVENTION Extra Large Crowds of Episco- palians Are Expected This Evening and Tomorrow.

Charles Smith, % years old, a chavuf- feur, of 475 Evans avenue, was fatally injured yesterday afternoon, when an automobile driven by Miss Nellie Har- ris, 24, of 3801 Olive street, ran onto the sidewalk at Vandeventer avenue and Olive street and knocked him down. Smith was looking into > show window at the southwest corner, when Miss Har- Tis lost control of the mach'te and ‘'t ran onto the walk. She explained latcr that she was driv- ing west on Olive street and suddenly swerved south to avoid striking an auto- mobile going south on Vandeventer and he: car ran onto the sidewalk as she attempted to check its speed. Smith was taken to the city hospital, where physicians found that he had suf- fered several broken ribs and that one of the ribs had pierced his lungs. He died two hours after the accident. Miss Harris was arrested for careless driving, and after Smith's death was re- arrested and released on a common-law bond to answer to any charge that might be placed against her.

In his address today Hughes said: ‘IT am not opposed to the principle of an eight-hour work day. On the con- trary, I favor it. The general principle oi the eight-hour work day is that lim- iting labor to eight hours promotes health, happiness and efficiency. The whole point is the limitation of hours of labor, that a man shall work eight hours and no longer. The Adamson Dill does not provide that. It is a mere pre- tense to say that it does. It does not limit hours, it simply regulates pay. It i3 a wage bill. “What is the purpose of this attempt tu make the public believe that this bill fixes an eight-hour workday?

A wide range of colors and fabrics in our Fall and Winter woolens awaits your inspection. Prices for Suits and Overcoats range from $20 t0 $50 tion in its abject and humiliating sur- |render of principle in securing this legis- lation without any proper inquiry as the price of peace. Evidently it is felt that a wage increase. could not be justi- fied in this manner. So it is sought to give the impression that what was done was to fix an eight-hour workday and that this was already approved by the judgment of society. A shameless per- version! Even as an eight-hour workday the judgment of society has never been passed on its application to railroads with their road divisions and hours of duty. The railroad employes themselves would desire to be heard on this point. If there were any such judgment of society, why did the administration lim- it the application of the bill to these particular employes. Is not the eight- hour workday quite as important for 80 per cent as for 20 per cent? What becomes of the suggestion that the eight-hour workday was granted-not be- cause it was demanded, but because it was right* On this assumption, why not grant it to all railroad employes? Is there any special judgment of soctety for the 20 per cent? The more highly paid? Why does the bill except electric railroads and those railroads which are less than 100 miles in length? If the administration was giving effect to the judgment of society, why did it not pass the measure at the beginning of the administration, or certainly a year ago? Predicts Surprises. “I may add that hasty legislation is likely to carry with it unwelcome sur- prises. If eight hours is to be a ‘meas- ure or standard of a day’s work’ fur the purpose of reckoning the compen- sation to be paid, how are those men left who complete the prescribed num- ber of miles in less than eight hours? And how will a rigid eight-hour basis of pay affect present guarantees? Thera is much room for thought in this legis- lution not only on the part of those for whom it does not provide but on the part of those to whom it expressly re- fers. The Ré@publican party has not been opposed to the principle of an eight-hour work day. Many years ago a Republican Congress provided that eight hours should constitute a day's work for laborers, workmen and me- chanics employed by the United States. “This bill is a serious blow to labor. It undermines what labor has sought t» maintain. It substitutes legislation for collective bargaining. I do not speak of the validity of the bill. I am speak- ing of its policy from the labor stand- point. Is labor prepared to give up col- lective bargaining and to have wages fixed by law? If wages can be increased by law they can be decreased. ‘The principle of arbitration has been betrayed. Labor has worked for this principle. It has won important victo- ries and public opinion has developed in its favor. But what becomes of this principle if arbitration is scouted and force is recognized as victor? The es- sence of arbitration is a fair, prompt and impartial hearing. It is idle to say. that such a hearing could not be had. That is simply to insist that we cannot provide for justice in this country. Such a doctrine is revolutionary. Of course we can provide for prompt, candid and thorough investigation and determina- tion if we insist upon it. Predicts Rate Increase, ‘We shall never do it if we substt- tute force, or yield to force. Obviously unworthy is the excuse that the ques- tion of an eight-hour day is not arbi- trable. We have no such question here, as I have shown, but it is plain that if it were proposed there would be many matters that would have to be consid- ered before an eight-hour work day could be applied to railroads. Else why was it not fixed now—for all roads and all men? “I am not opposed to increases of wages if they are just. I want to see all labor property rewarded. But it must be remembered that if the pres- ent railroad rates are fair and expenses are increased by millions of dollars, then rates must be increased.

This provision ped the city’s needs, it is stated, will moni the present chaotic and uneconomic growth and hasten improvements _ as the extension, widening and recti- fication of streets; the increase and development of parks and play- grounds, 2 the establishment of in- dustrial are all at costs that will not be prohibitive if there is no de- lay. Insufficient width, lack of direct- ness and want of continuity are the predominant evils of the city’s street plan, the commission finds. The sys8- tem of major rectangular thorough- fures has been neglected as have “coun- ter radials,”’ which would afford com- munication between districts apart from the business center. adial Connections Needed. Ee me from north and south, Mar- ‘jket, Chestnut, Pine and Olive streets, Locust street and its connections with Lindell boulevard, and Washington av- enue provide access to the business dis- trict, but with the exception of Broad- way, all are from the west. Gravois, Delmar, Easton, Page and Florissant avenues and Natural Bridge road are named as radial thoroughfares of con- siderable importance and of great future utility. The commission holds that: these streets should terminate in the business district. Accomplishment of this the 'lteymmission regards as one of the chief || problems for city planning. An additional radial connection, the commission says, is needed in Southwest St. Louis, along the line traversed by Watson road. The development and _ extension of Twelfth street, Eighteenth street, Comp- ton avenue, Morganford road, ‘Tower || Grove, Newstead, Sulphur and McCaus- iund avenues, are necessary in the com- mission's opinion to furnish highways between the north and south ends of the city. Their utility would gsvon war- ||rant the expense incurred, the commis- |}310n says. As a means of increasing the width of streets already lined with stores and residences, the commission suggests a law establishing a new building line | deeper in the lots on both sides of such thoroughfares. In the course of years, -he cominission believes, many old struc- |jtures on these streets would be rebuilt cm the new line. ‘Those which remained standing on the old line would suffer depreciation partly for want of align- ment. acd cou'td.tnen be-purchased for considerably less than when the widen- + of the streets was first proposed. -cveral cities, notably Philadelphia, pos- sess authority to establish building lines on old streets, the commission reports. The widening of Olive street from , Fourteenth street to Walton avenue, by ‘adding three feet to the roadway on each side and correspondingly reducing the width of sidewalks, is deemed by the proval by the Board of Public Service. AS a substitute for the present scheme the commission suggests a new building line 20 feet back on one side of Olive Street, with a requirement that owners commission an ineffectual method. This ss feces has been adopted by some of the ; '; owners of property along that stretch of Olive street, and is now awaiting ap- } of the property be allowed about twenty years to conform to the new delimita- ition. It is urged that requisite legisla- tion be obtained now, so that ordinances fixing new building lines may be passed whenever it is decided to widen a street in this way.

Elihu Root denounces President Wilson for not protecting -American citizens in Mexico whose lives were imperilled and some of whom lost their lives. This is an easy criticism. The Pres- ident tried to protect them in every way except making war, setting up and maintaining a gov- ernment in Mexico. Would he have been justified in doing this in order to punish Mexico forsher chaotic conditions and to obtain redress for out- rages inflicted upon Americans by bandits and revolutionary leaders? If Mr. Root thinks this now his opinion is different from that he held when he was Secre- tary of State under Mr. Roosevelt. In a speech on the Mexican situation delivered then Mr. Root said: Granting that injuries have been done to American citizens, that ought to be redressed, that wounds have been inflicted, that lives have been taken, it does not follow, however, that we should begin the process of securing redress for these injuries by a threat of force on the part of a great and powerful nation against a smaller and weaker nation. That, sir, is to’reverse the policy of the United States and to take a step backward in the pathway of civilization. This utterance is in such complete harmony with Mr. Wilson’s policy and expression that it might have been written by him. It is a con- vincing defense of the Wilson policy in dealing with Mexico. What remarkable changes are wrought in the minds of men by political partisanship! Root the statesman and Root the politician are as dif- ferent as Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. hi A Ae -~ Fr The proposal to cheapen flour by adding marble dust is highly suggestive of tombstones. How- ever, digging our graves with our teeth is nothing new. >= = * ~~ Fr DEEPENING THE DES PERBES. Twenty-five workhouse prisoners are busy, with long-handled shovels, deepening and widening the Des Peres. They are equipped with hip-long wading boots, the water and mud being often deep enough to make these essential, They are continuing a task that has been begun several times and stopped by high water. If the present weather continues, they may before winter sets in make some slight and ephemeral improvement in this troublesome stream. But how futile! - Suppose a private citizen with means had a similar problem to solve—a little, filthy creek running through his estate, but dangerous after heavy rains. Would he pro- ceed to dig it out with long-handled shovels and man-power? Would he not set a steam dredge in motion, that would dredge the entire bed of the stream out almost between showers? Beginning at its mouth, a steam dredge could in a few weeks’ time eat its way up-stream, deep- ening and widening the river as it ascended. It could cut across angles and straighten the bed of the stream as it proceeded. And in a single season we might have a fairly straight, deep Des Peres up to the point where it enters Forest Park. With the present penny-wise methods we may perhaps see this result in about 20 years, if at all. = = i i WHERE WAS MR. DYER? A compilation designed to place in contrast the utterances of Mr. Wilson and Mr. Hughes on labor problems has been made by Congressman L. C. Dyer of St, Louis, and is being circulated as a campaign document by Republicans. Every statement of fact relating to labor which has been made by Mr. Wilson as a writer of his- tory, every expression of dissent with mistaken policies or misguided labor leaders is reproduced in the unsuccessful attempt to show a hostile atti- tude to unionism on the President’s part. All these quotations were painstakingly separated from their context in the 1912 campaign and re- published. The voters have already pronounced on them. By way of a parallel to these, every statement by Mr. Hughes that can be tortured into an ex- pression of friendliness to labor—the conventional phrases of letters or executive messages, the fa- miliar chatter evidencing the just-before-election solicitude for labor of candidates for office—is re- produced. Much more in point than Mr. Hughes’ past attitude would be Mr. Hughes’ present atti- tude toward labor, as shown by his vicious at- tacks on the eight-hour law. And just as much in point is Congressman Dyer’s own present attitude toward labor. On the eight-hour bill he is recorded as “‘not voting.” That the greatest principle of modern unionism would come to an issue in Congress was made evi- dent long enough in advance to permit any true friend of labor among absent members to return. Where was Mr. Dyer when the vote came? Why did he dodge and leave to Mr. Meeker the honor of being the sole Missouri Congressman to oppose the eight-hour principle and the preven- tion of the strike? = = = ~~ - PREVENTABLE FIRE WASTE. Today is Fire Prevention day. It is the an- niversary of the great Chicago fire and is gen- erally observed throughout the United States. It is a day in which to consider and put in force ways and means for the prevention of the tre- mendous loss, in life and property, suffered on account of preventable fires every year. In 1915, for example, in addition to about 5000 deaths by fire, the country lost $184,989,100 in property values from fires and conflagrations. The fire loss for the first nine months of 1916 was §$163,535,220, which is nearly $60,000,000 larger than for the same period of the previous jyear, Are we becoming more careless regarding fire precautions? The state fire marshals and fire prevention authorities agree that 75 per cent of this loss is preventable. It must be, because, in Europe the annual per capita fire waste is 33 cents, against $2.60 In the United States. Is it because we are richer that we are more careless than are Hu- ropeans? We throw away many millions in high fire insurance rates as a result of this care.

This grievous annual loss of life and substance is no visitation of providence. We can control it. To permit it to continue unchecked is a na- tional disgrace. == ~~ = = THE EXPECTED SUBMARINE WARFARE, The Amsterdam Courant claims to have positive information about the resumption of the submar- ine warfare on the part of Germany. In that con- nection it says: At Wilhelmshaven, the great German Naval base, there are over a hundred of these little monsters, ready to take to the waters of the Baltic and the Northsea; and at Zeebruegge, tn the North of Belgium there are as many more to destroy commerce in the Channel and es- pecially to break the line of troops and food supplies between England and France, if not also to boldly attack Calais, Dunkirk and Boulogne. According to the paper the old plan of Von Tirpitz is to be followed, that is, to completely iso- late Britain from the Continent, to let no food stroy the British fleet in the Baltic and the North Sea, so as to make mobile the German fleet, stationed in either water.” The new fleet, “according to eyewitnesses,” con- sists of submarines fitted out after the pattern of the “‘Deutschland,’ and -competent to weather heavy seas, carry enough fuel and provisions to provide for six weeks’ trips, and able to discharge torpedoes without coming to the surface. The Muenchener Tageblatt says this about the resumption on new lines of the undersea warfare: The world is fighting us, openly or covertly; and Germany shall not lose, We have said what there is to say about America and Japan. furnishing munitions. That must stop, and Germafty will stop it. It seems, we have not one friend. Well, if they are all enemies at heart, let them look to it. We can and shall tear down the masks. The Magdeburg Sonntagsblatt adds: Now we shall, of course, get complaints from the “Neutrals.” But we cannot find a crea- ture of that species. There are those that say, they are neutral; vet they flirt (liebaeugeln) with our enemies, and furnish them munitions and food. We can recognize as “neutral” only those nations that will let us fight it out, and allow everybody to stand on his own re- sources absolutely, as we stand on ours ab- solutely. We have gotten the “Deutschland” and the “Bremen” across; we shal] get our whole fleet across, if need be to form a cordon, Then if Germany starves she will have com- pany. The enemies of the President seem annoyed by the repetition, “He kept us out of war.” Nevertheless it is simple truth that disturbs no thoughtful genuine American patriot. = = * =—_ — Ss CHILD LABOR LEGISLATION. The Federal child labor law was passed by a majority of both parties in Congress, and its soundness is vouched for by Senator Cummins, one of the Republican members of the Senate In- terstate Commerce Committee, which studied it carefully, and, as Senator Cummins says, “‘em- ployed the utmost care to exclude every possible objection to its validity consistent with its ef- fectiveness.”’ But because the bill was signed by a Democratic President and because this is campaign year, Re- publican leaders are doing all they can to dis- credit the law as a Democratic “gold brick.” The technical objections put forth by Republican lead- ers are fully answered in a pamphlet just issued by the National Child Labor Committee, 105 East Twenty-second street, New York. The bill is shown to be legally and practically as perfect as human ingenuity could make it. As a product of Republican as well as Demo- cratic legislative activity, with what grace can Mr. Hughes carp at this law because, as he says, it affects only 150,000 of the more than 1,000,000 *hild workers in the country? He must be aware that, if the Congress which passed it and the Presi- dent who signed it had each and all been Repub- licans, they could not have made it apply to a single child laborer over and above the 150,000 who will be benefited by it. However, the fact that there are so many children still unprotected by law, while no dis- credit to the Federal Government, shows that the friends of the children have a great deal more to do, in compelling protective legislation in every State that now lacks it. Missouri hag a child labor law, but a committee of the State Senate has in hand the work of draft- ing a code of laws relating to children which should result in something better than the exist- ing child labor law. Other States are making progress, but much remains to be done to rescue the army of child workers from stultifying drudg- ery and restore them the privileges, joys and op- portunities of normal childhood. = = — -_ The Prohibition presidential nominee is for in- tervention in Mexico, as well as for intervention in alcoholics, but there are Prohibitionists who would speedily drop him if they supposed he could bring about a meddling in the affairs of a weak sister republic.

Before Victor Murdock, the Kansas statesman, took to the tall timber—in Japan—to avoid voting at the coming election he started telling a few tales out of school in Collier’s Weekly.

It's ne gift but a keen search for and later recol- lection of some physical distinction, a facial blem- ish, a peculiar pitch of voice, a tilt of the head, an oda gesture or gait. “Isn't it terrible,” Mr. Murdock recalls one cam- paigner saying—"“isn’t it terrible how many of them look alike?

ANTWINE MAKES A SUGGESTION. BELIEVE the 8-hour law would be more popular if it were explained that people who are working less than this would not be af- fected,’’ Mr. Antwine said. ‘‘There are so many people either working three or four hours or not working at all to whom an 8-hour law working both ways would be a hardship that some explanation ought to be made of the law’s actual purpose. Those precious sons of the sugar plum who live around clubs and spend most of the day tooling around in automobiles ought not to understand that the Adamson bill proposes to make them work eight hours. They are entirely unsuited by their mode of life to any such ordeal, and if they resisted it to their full strength at the polls they could not be blamed. Neither should it be feared among those casual workers of the world who have but a slight part in the daily drama of life that someone is pro- posing to make them work eight hours a day. They value their leisure, if the rest of us don’t. ‘‘T am not right sure that the railroad presidents fully understand that Mr. Wilson is not trying to make them come down at 8 o’clock and leave not earlier than 4, The President ought to come out and make it quite plain that the law works only one way. It would quiet fears in many quarters, and make him a lot of friends. Better still, if the peo- ple who know little or nothing of work could be made to understand that there are working men doing less than eight hours, and that the chief purpose of the law is to make them work that long, it would help him materially in both high and low walks. ‘¢‘How long people can, will or must work is a very serious matter. It is not the sort of thing that can be left to chance in a campaign where every vote is going to count.’’ : IN SIGNS.

Next Saturday’s Games, However, Will Shed Stronger Light on _* Championship Outlook— Cornell, Leader in 1915, Will Play First 1916 Contest Today. — ORNELL’S gréat football eleven, only slightly impaired by gradua- tions from last year’s machine, will take the fiéld today in its first | outing of the season. It will oppose the minor Pennsylvania team of Get- tysburg and will probably have little more than a workout. This game 1s ~-postponed from Saturday. \ Gorell is the last of the big teams hat it defeated Har- last year, when the crimson later made a show of Yale and downed Prinecéton, rushed the Itha- cans to the front aé the leading team of the country, in the minds of. many. hat it is to be a factor this year , of the rig org PW make its appear- ac ance, The ght critics believe. Reginald W. Brown, one of the sanest and safest writers on football in the coun S978 and at present chief strategist of th $ ~ 2 _ erimson eleven, declared that Cornell édrély had the fuaterial to defeat Harvard again this year, ff its strat- éiy was equal to the test. -In view of Harvard’s defeat by the thinér Tufts team, Saturday, this would not appear to bé much of a recommend- ation. But the fact is Cornell will be watched as a title possibilitity. In the field this year for the honor are Dartmouth, Syracuse, Pittsburg. which again has a coring team, Yale and Princeton. It is not believed that any other team, save possibly Penn te, has the material to cope with the élevens named. Looks Like a Yale Year. Yale’s crushing defeat of Virginia by an overwhelming score merely confirmed supporters in the belief that this is Yale year. Princeton, however, is to reckoned with. As betweén Princeton and Harvard, Some line may be obtained after next Saturday's contest, in which Harvard plays North Carolina, while Prince- ton méets the dangerous Tufts elev- éen—the two big varsity’s trading op- ponents of last Saturday. ‘Tt was noted on this page early this season that Tufts owned a formidable team. Its showing against the Tigers wiht ord a fair line on the relative strength of the crimson and Princet®n teams. Pittsburg smothered the Westminster eleven in its first game, this year, but turday it faces the Navy eleven. The iddies, oeierreee somewhat by their de- feat of the orgetown eleven, supposed bé a strong factor. If Pittsburg runs three touchdowns or more on the avy, this elev must be considered as in the national title hunt. Dartmouth is showi a whale of an eléven this season, e Green ma- hine am-rollered the Lebanon alley 47——-0.

Last year it was given a title look-in until Syracuse came along and smoth- ered it. Colgate last Saturday defeated University of Maine, 28—0, a score that indicates fair strength. Illinois, however, fs one of the prime favorites for the Big Nine title. That 30-0 defeat of Kansas in its first contest was a good start, although Minnesota and Wisconsin are still in the hunt. Chicago’s defeat by Carleton was the real surprise of Saturday. Apparently the Maroon eleven is hopelessly out of the Big Nine running. Nebraska showed another ‘“‘tank’”’ ma- chine when it ran over Drake by a score of 68—0 in the first Missouri Valley Con- ference game of the year.

PHILADBDLPHIA, Oct. &8.—Nearly every big university in the country has experimented at one time or another with a wide-open use of the forward pass as its principal weapon of attack in football. And practically without exception such teams have eventually come to grief un- less they had a strong running attack with which to vary the forward passing offense. Yale was the last big team to stake everything on this play. Frank Hinkey promise to rejuvenate Yale football -with it, but after serving two years of his three-year contract he had to give up. He found to his sorrow that the forward pass, at least as he used it, was not a play which would form the nucleus of a winning offense. In view of Yale’s misfortunes, there is more or less skepticisn among football critics as to the success Pennsylvania will achieve with the forward pass un- der the coaching of Bob Folwell. It was the forward pass which made Fol- well famous at Washington and Jeffer- son. Curiously enough it was the skill of Folwell’s team to forward pass that beat Yale twice in succession, and with the Elis specializing on the same play, too. Yale was twice badly beaten by the very play which Hinkey said would be Yale’s salvation. ° Are Slow to Develop But those who know Folwell’s system best declare that he will not suffer as Hinkey did. There are two reasons for this. One is that Folwell doesn’t be- lieve in nor use the long indiscriminate passing game which Yale attempted. Folwell makes use of the short, run- ning pass, termed the “‘baseball’’ pass. The other reason is that Folwell teaches the running, plunging game. This gives his team an ideally-varied attack. There .is no question that Americans have bé@n inexcusably slow in the de- velopment of the running, passing game which features English rugby. ere- tofore, the usual forward pass has been a long, deliberate heave which the man receiving has had to catch standing still. The pass which Folwell has been teach- ing is a short one, with the ball snapped so fast that the opposition has no chance to intercept it. The success of this play depends almost entirely upon the ability of the players to catch the ball on the run. Folwell contends that the average football player doesn’t know how to catch a football, and that any man can be taught to catch the ball with certainty and while on the run. If it be granted that Folwell knows how to make the forward pass go, the fact still remains that the sort of run- ning, goal-kicking attack which Harvard has maintained under the coaching of Percy Haughton is the soundest football that can be taught. Football still re- mains a game whose success depends upon much the same principles as war. With two evenly matched armies the one which can conceal the point of at- tack and then after scattering the en- emy’s defense, hurl all its force upon a given weak point is bound to be the victor. It is the same in football. Har- vard was invincible last year largely be- cause with Mahan as a battering ram the Crimson was able to mask its at- tack so cleverly. The Crimson uses the forward pass very seldom, then only to teed d the attack or spread out the de- ense. a seemed RECORDS OF PITCHERS IN MAJOR CIRCUITS NATIONAL LEAGUE PITCHERS.

By W. J. O’Connor. On a cold business basis of supply and demand, viewing it retrospectively, it becomes something less than a hazard- ous guess to say that St. Louis has had too much baseball this season. The — Serious was a frost; nobody fell or Scarcely 14,000 fans paid to see the late titular struggle between the Browns and Cardinals in four days. More than 15,000 viewed the first battle between the Cubs and White Sox in Chicago. For winning the city championship, the Brown players will each receive less than $60. The losing Cardinals will get approximately $0 each. The club own- ers fared even worse. They barely made expenses. And all this despite the fact that the weather was ideal and the brand of baseball good. The answer is that in- terest cannot be sustained in two second- division clubs. The fans are sugfeited on baseball at this time of the year and the fall series is destined to be a joke so long as the local teams fail to be mofe potent pennant factors. Let’s have no more of it. Cardinals Outclassed. The Browns sawed off both ends of yesterday's double-header and regained the mythical city pennant, four games to one, proving themselves superior to the Cardinals in every department of the game. The proteges of Miller Huggins acted In a way to justify ‘a opinion of the gambling experts who made the Browns @ 1-to-2 favorite before the se- ries began. The Cards were always a bad second in a two-horse race. There was only one bright spot in the Cardinal team. That was the work of Sammy Cohen, alias Sammy Bohne, at short. This Israelite looks like a prom- ising fielder and a really great prospect. He may not hit .200, but he has the cou- rage to try anything and he’s not too slow for the big show. He fields nicely and covers up a none- too-strong arm by playing the hard hops. Surely his work, by comparison stands out as the neatest effort put forth by the National Leaguers in their late, and lamented, collision with the Browns. a Jack Smith, too, deserves a hand. Jack is the fastest thing on Hug’s elub. which isn’t a tremendous boost for Jack. For, believe me, bo, there are some slow-moving ‘‘tanks’’ on that Cardinal! team. But the Boston Red Sox are slow and yet they win. They have 4 system of play that the Cardinals lack However, Smith is beginning to hit ana he’s one member of the present team that Britton can afford to go along with for another season. Hale Makes a Hit. Catcher George Hale, one of Rickey’s “finds,”” just about pushed Grover Hart. ley off the Brown bench, by his work in this series. Hale is the best catch- ing prospect the Browns have turned up in 10 years. He may not come through, but just now he has all the earmarks of a winner. He's as quick as a cat, has an uncan- ny knack of sensing the direction of a foul fly, can shoot to second like a rifle and looks like a fair hitter. He has one fault. He throws a “heavy” ball. Bob Wallace has said that Lou Cri- mer was the greatest catcher he ever worked with, because Lou could throw a “feather” ball. He had speed, but put a twist on the ball that made ft easy to handle. Hale huris a “dead’’ ball and more than once we have seen him tear Lavan's hands apart. Rut this is a correctible weakness. If Hale can overcome it, Hank Severeid will have to fight for bis job next sea- Sisler to Play First. It is too early to speculate on the rpbable changes in the Brown elub. Mike shift of Sisler to center field was made merely to meet an emergency. Marsans went home and Miller was hurt in Thursday's game. That caused Rum- ler to move into right, while Sisler went to center, Paulette taking George's lace. P'sisler will be back on first next sen- son, because he’s the greatest first sack- er in the American League today, but Paulette can hit-left handers hard enough to be retained, and if Manager Jones is to overcome the club's woeful weakness against southpaws, he's got to keep Paulette or get somebody better. The Browns cannot go to the post with so many left-handed, hitters next year. Not and live, at least. There wae a general exodus of athletes today. Many of the players for their homes without getting their share of the series receipts. Manager Jones will leave tonight for Portland and will not return wntil it is time to go South next spring. Rickey will repre- sent the club at jJeague tings and any trade that redound” to the suc- i fitting. King the Tailor. 6th and Olive, eos of the local team. f 2.

LOUIS ALUMINUM PLANT STRIKE Some of Employes Reject Proposal to Pay Them on Own, Instead of Company’s Time. About 450 employes of the Aluminum Company of America, oné of the largest manufacturing plants in East St. Louis— millwrights, carpenters, electricians and steamfitters—walked out this morning, and after meeting in the auditorium of the city hall framed demands for an eight-hour day and increase in wages. Saturday the company announced its employes would be paid after 5 p. m., on their own time, instead of during "the day on the company’s time, as hereto- fore. The men ‘refused to accept their money Saturday and returned to work today, when they were discharged, it is said. The men were paid, and then marched to the city hall, shouting ‘‘Hurrah for Wilson and the eight-hour day.”’ W. M. Williams, an electrician, who ied the men, said the demands are a standard wage scale of $4.2 a day for mechanics; eight hours for a day’s work; time and a half for overtime; double time on Sundays and holidays, and that they shall be paid on the company’s time. Williams said the present scale is $3.50 to $4.26 a day for mechanics for a nine and one-half hour day. The plant employs 2000 persons. 110 ARRESTS IN LID CLUB RAIDS Police to Ask for 14 Warrants—Much Beer Seised.

VIOLENT BREAK TAKES PLAGE IN STOGK MARKET |: U-Boat Activities Off New En- gland Sends Prices Down Five to Ten Points. NEW YORK, Oct. 9. Submarine activities against ship ing off the New England coast precipitat- ed a violent break in securities at the geen 3 of the market today. Some of munition shares lost 5 to 10 points on the initial transactions and trading was on an unusually heavy basis. Baldwin Locomotive opened 9 points lower at 80; American Can lost 5% points to 58%: U. 8. Steel, 9% points on running sales of 112 to 109. Railroad stocks were steadier than the industri- als and munition shares, but skowed losses of 2 to 5 points overnight. Banking support caused a strong rally in the market in the second hour, after Republic steel had dropped 18 points to 60 and some of the other specialties had scored almost equally wide losses. Prices worked back 5 to 6 points and Republic recovered to well above 70. On the rebound the market developed decided irregularity and the price move- ment was yee Trading totaled over 900,000 shares in the first hour. General news was ignored by the traders. The Wall Street Summary said: ‘Fhe Supreme Court meets today. “International Mercantile Marine holds in port British ships of that line. ‘Wilson will confer - with Bernstorft today “Wabash Railroad in eight months ended June 30, earned 3.06 per cent on preferred stock. “British embassy says United States will be called upon to state whether any mor: ‘‘U’’ boats shall be permitted to enter American ports. Allies conten: that it is violation of neutrality.’’ DETAILED REPORT OF DAY'S WALL STREET TRANSACTIONS NEW YORK, Oct. 9.—The market was thrown into a state of panic at today’s open- ing in consequence of the activities of Ger- man submarines in American waters. Promi- nent stocks, particularly the war group, declined 5, 10 and, in a few instances, nearly 20 points from last week’s final prices. rine preferred registered an extreme loss of 13 points, with 10 for the common. Republic Steel fell 18 points. United States Steel al- most 8 points, wit as much for Crucible Steel, and 5 to 10 points for other munitions and equipments. Even standard railway shares were materially affected. Union Pacific, Reading, New York Central and RBal- timore & Ohio, losing 3 to 6 points. Substan- tial support brought about rallies of 3 to 6 points in some of the stocks most affected, while Republic Steel gained all but 2 points. The list dispsived remarkable recuperative power on free absorption of high-grade_issues soon after the opening. NEW YORK BOND’ SALES Atch. gen. _ 48 & " Ww Cc, ae en.

The steadying influence was greatly increased—crop damage reported from Argentina, together with a de- cided rise in prices at “Liverpoot. ahe ad- vance in British quotations was taken as in- dicating that destruction of cargoes would sharpen demand on the other side of the At- lantic, and that difficulties of export from the United States would thus be in a measure offset.

Oats paralleled the action of other cereals. Demand expanded greatly on the decline. In provisions as well as in grain, the chief influence was the doings of the German war craft in American waters.

The election board held that copy- ing the answers was a violation of the law which forbids copying the register. Charles F.
