PRACTICAL PLAN OF NA- TIONAL DEFENSE — Out- by Maj. John H. ("“Gat- teeg Gun") Parker, who is with he American army in Ordér Your Copy Today : Thaw’s in seclusion in the home of a West Vhiladelphia family, was improved to- Gay, and, according to physicians, he probably will be able to Teave St. Mary’s Hospital within two weeks. Dr. Elwood R. Kirby of this city, who was summoned by the Thaw family to attend him, said today he felt sure Thaw had not taken poison. The finding of slow poison tablets in pocket gave rise to the fear that he might have swallowed one. The physician said Thaw showed none of the early symptoms of the poison, and that his condition was sat!sfactory. When asked if he had taken any of the poison, he made no answer. The patient, under guard of two detec- tives and a nurse, spent a good night and slept well. He has had little to say since he was brought to the hospital. Thaw asked for his doctor in the night, but did not ask for any members of nis family, nor did he make any reference to the charges placed against him by the New York authorities, who accused him of kidnaping and beating Frederick Gump Jr. of Kansas City. Thaw’s Mind Still Hazy. . Dr. Kirby said Thaw’s mind was still somewhat hazy, as though he were suf- fering from the after effects of a drug or liquor. Captain of Detectives Tate expressed the opinion that Thaw did not realize he was under arrest. Later in the day. he said, he would question Thaw, if his condition should permit, and try to draw from him a statement regarding the Gump charges. When Thaw is able to leave the hospital, Capt. Tate said, the war- rants against him will be served and he also will be arraigned before a Police Magistrate on a charge of at- tempting suicide. Whether the family will contest the efforts of the New York authorities to have Thaw surrendered to them is not definitely known here. It is said a conference of members of the Thaw family and close friends will be held later in the day to determine what steps to take to combat. the New York charges. According to pri- vate detectives in the employment of the Thaw family, the Gump charges are looked upon as an attempt at blackmail. Made Round of Cafes. The Philadelphia detective sare not satisfied with the story told by Sam- uel Maloney, the Philadelphia rep- resentative of a New York detective agency, that he had made arrange- ments to have Thaw turned over to District Attorney Swann in New York. Maloney said he took Thaw to the quiet residential district of West Philadelphia so as to get him in condition to be taken to New York. Maloney said Thaw had been making the rounds of cafes here and when he got word from New York that Thaw was about to be arrested: he thought the best thing to do was to keep him in seclusion for a few days. Maloney formerly was a politica] leader in one of the Philadelphia wards, said he had no fears of an investiga- tion, and that arrangements had been completed to surrender Thaw. Amonz those who took part in making these ar- rangements, he further said, was the counsel for the Thaw family in Pittze- burg. Mrs. Thaw, it is said, will not come here unless her son's condition demands her presence, or unless he insists that she be sent for. Guard of Six Detectives. Thaw occupies a suite of two and a bath, adjoining which is a large porch. Six Philadelphia detectives have been assigned to the hospital, where they are working in shifts. Every pre- caution has been taken by the police to prevent Thaw doing any further narm to himself, notwithstanding the raport that he last night said he was giad he did not kill himself. TOURS Mother Ascribes Thaw’s Latest Trou- ble to Christmas Conviviality. PITTSBURG, Pa., Jan. 12.—Mrs. Mary Copley Thaw, mother of Harr K. Thaw, yesterday issued a me ie ment bearing upon his indictment in New York for assault upon Fred- erick Gump Jr. In the statement Mrs. Thaw refers to the fact that while -her husband, the late William Thaw, frequently assisted poor boys to obtain an education and that Harry did likewise, her own opin- ion “fortified by long experience and otservation,” is that “this form of benevolence is too susceptible of abuse to be indorsed.” “It is not surprising that Harry should offer a scientific training to a lad whose ill-health had compelled his family te move to Southern Cali- fornia.” Mre. Thaw says in the state- ment, butadds “that in this particular instance, the combination of needless) y assumed guardianship and the obvi- ous result of Christmas conviviality resulted disastrously.” : aa | Bo ¥ licans and Democratic leaders in the House today headed off the introduction of resolutions that had been drawn calling for an. {investigation of the pen- itentiary, and decided to leave the peni- tentiary house cleaning up to Gov. Gard- ner. At a conference of Democratic leaders Frank Farris, floor leader, advised that action be postponed until the expiration of McClung’s term as Warden next Mon- day, to see what action the GoWVernor would take. Harry Sprague of St. Louis County, Republican floor leader, prevented the offer of.a resolution by Representative Frank Kinder of Butler County, on the ground that the penitentiary is a Demo- cratic scandal and should be passed on to Gov. Gardner, who has power to re- move the Warden at will. Sprague de- clared that a resolution introduced by other than a Democrat would result only in another white washing process. GARNISHMENT HOLDS UP $100 BANKRUPT MAN WON ON WILSON Robert Friend, Commission Mer- chant, Testifies as Voluntary :' Petitioner. Robert Friend, a commission merchant at 923 North Fourth street, a voluntary bankruptcy petitioner, testifying before Bankruptcy Commissioner Coles today, said he would be $100 richer if an elec- of California was still being counted. Friend listed among his assets a bet of $50 against $100 with Frank C. Krueg- er, another commission merchant. Fred Haueisen, also a commission. merchant, was the stakeholder. Friend bet on Wilson. He disclosed today that the en- tire stake held by Haueisen represented a bet -of- $600- against $1000, but he said he himself had only a $50 share and the rest was raised by a syndicate of com- mission merchants. The entire amount of the bet, $1500, is held up by the garnishment. SIXTY SAFE DEPOSIT BOXES IN PACIFIC (MO,) BANK ROBBED Burglars Take Jewelry and Other Valuables, but Do Not Carry Papers Away. The City Bank of Pacific, Mo., was entered by burglars Wednesday night and about sixty safe depasit boxes were looted, according to information received by the St. Louis police today. James Booth, president of the bank, told a Post-Dispatch reporter over the long distance telephone that he thought the loss was not more than a few hun- dred dollars. The burglars entered by forcing a rear door. They then drilled the lock off the safe deposit vault. Jew- elry and other valuables were taken from some of the boxes, but the papers in the boxes were not taken. The bank’s money safe was not touched. Three stramgers were in Pacific Wednesday. They were seen to board a train for St. Louis early Thursday. 11 HOUSEHOLDS CARRY WATER 4 DAYS IN ROW WITH CITY Property Owners Then | Capitulate and Agree to Pay for Installing New Two-Inch Pipe.

He has been active in Democratic politics in Mis- souri for several years. He gave $5000 to the campaign fund of the Democratic National Committee. Before the November election, Long was the directing spirit in the prepara- tion of lists of negroes who, it was al- leged, were registered as voters although they were disqualified by reason of con- victions of crime, These lists were used at the polls by challengers, and it has since been charged that qualified voters were wrongfully kept from voting, or arrested without warrant, because of Similarity of names.

M’KINLEY LINE EMPLOYES IN ST, LOUIS GUARDED BY POLICE Protection Asked for After Threats Because of Increase in Fare to Granite City, As a result of the raising of the Mc- Kinley line’s fare between St. Louis and Granite City, from 5 to 10 cents for sin- gle trips, the company has appealed to the St. Louis police to protect its em- ployes from passengers who have ob- jected to paying the increased fare. Some of these passengers have based their objections on the fact that the company’s franchise, granted by the city, fixes the fare at 5 cents. This request has been granted by Capt. Hanna of the North Market Street Po- lice Station, who said today that he had stationed three patrolmen at points along the McKinley line between Salis- bury and Angelica streets, to prevent disorder. Capt. Hanna said the policemen had instructions not to arrest anyone merely because of refusal to pay the 10-cent fare, but only to make an arrest in case an actual disturbance of the peace should be charged. He said the company had complained that its conductors had been threatened, and that damage had been done to cars, in some cases by the windows. Capt. Hanna said one arrest had been made, and that the case was pending in Police Court. MISSING ENVELOPES ARE FOUND 20,000 Franked Ones From Richmend for New Yeork Strayed te Australia.

Cook asked Murphy if he had told the newspapers that the trust company bought coal at the penitentiary. Mur- phy said he did. “Well, didn't you know you were tell- ing a — lie?’ said Cook. ‘IT will make the same statement be- fore any jury or court in the world un- der oath,” Murpiy cold him. “Yes, and you'd swear to a —— lie,’’ said Cook, as he rushed for Murphy with his fist. drawn. Murphy dodged and somebody struck Cook's arm, deflecting the blow, so that it glanced off Murphy's jaw. Senator Mike Kinney caught Cook and Murphy was led away. Cook weighs about 200 pounds, Murphy about 130. Cook said later he did not think he struck Murphy, but that he tried to, and that Murphy dodged the blow. Cook explained that the coal bought at the penitentiary was ordered by the Jef- ferson Investment Co., which owns the building oecupled by.the trust company and of which Cook also is a director. The building and the bank are owned largely by the.same stockholders, and have four common directors. Cook, G. A.

Officials also were pleased with the ndly tone of the note and the con- at tion shown to American purposes d@epite the indirect criticism of the President for what the entente con- firues as confusing the allied and Ger- manic purposes. This change in atti- tude proved surprising after the early hostility which greeted the Americas “note in the entente press, and was taken to mean a rather studied effort | not to do anything which would cause Offense in this country. One More Spring Campaign Likely. Peace at an early date is foreseen here now only on terms known to be ‘macceptable to Germany. The allies are thought to have committed them- pelwes by the definiteness of their state- ments to a continuation of the war until such time as they have either at- fmined or been convinced that they can- net attain a wilitary victory. Their note is regarded as so ¢mphatic that they cannot retreat from it without at least one more spring campaign. Officials will await with deepest in- ierest confidential reports on the recep- tion among the people of Germany of the entente reply. With German troops in france, Belgium, Rumania and large parts of Russia, the demands of the entente are expected to be received with great surprise. In that connection the phrase disclaiming intention to exter- minate the German peoples is thought to have been written. Much interest attached to the de- wiand for restitution of provinces wrest- e@ from the allies in the past. While no special locality was named, Alsace- Gortaine is understood to be indicated, tegether with any further territorial re- sijustmegts that the military situation micht justify.’ This clause is understood to havé been inserted for its elasticity. Reference to Arabia Seen, “The enfranchisement of populations gitbject to the bloody tyranny of the Turks,” is said to apply to Arabia, part of which has already declared its inde- pendence under allied cofitrol, Armenia, most of which is occupied by Russian troops, and Syria, the southern tip of which British troops from Suez have fust reached. It is felt that if the Turks were also driven from Europe, only a small part of their empire would be left. Deep interest also centered in the sec- tion. proposing the “expulsion from Bu- rope of the Ottoman Empire,” and the failure to mentiongwhat Government would take its place at Constantinople. That city with its control of the Darda- nelles has been one of the prime key- notes of the war and was foggpa lly stat- ed by former Premier Trepoff-to have been promised by the allies to Russia. Whether the omission marks any change of policy or lack of agreement, or whether it was made to emphasize the attitude toward the Turk, is unex- plained. Germany and her allies, it was stated here, never will agree to terms similar to those in the entente note. Unforeseen developments or some measures brought ™ about by the United States, German ts believe, can alone shorten the It was reiterated that upon no gion would @ermany part with Al- Lorraine, which she considers a part of Germany proper. Germany Bitter About Reparation. The German comment was especially TO PRESIDENT WILSON —_——— Entente Nations, Asked for Peace Terms, Affirm the Objects Which They Seek by Continuing the War WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.—The follow- ing are the texts of the reply of the entente Governments to President Wil- son's peace note and of a note from the Belgian Government, as cabled by Am- bassador Sharp at Paris: The allied Governments have re- ceived the note which was delivered to them in the name of the Govern- ment of the United States on the 18th of December, 1916. They have studied it with the care imposed upon them both by the exact realization which they have of the gravity of the hour, and by the sin- cere friendship which attaches them to the American people. In a general way they wish to» de- clare that they pay tribute to the elevation of the sentiment with which the American note is inspired and that they associate themselves with all their hopes with the project for the creation of a league of na- tions to insure peace, and justice throughout the world. They recog- nize all the advantages for the cause of humanity and civilization which the institution of international agreements, destined to avoid violent conflicts between nations would pre- vent agreements which must imply the @anctions necessary to insure their execution and thus to prevent an apparent security from only fa- cilitating new aggressions. Desire ror Early Peace. But a discussion of future ar- rangements destined to insure an en- during peace pre-supposes a satis- factory settlement of the actual con- flict. The allies have as profound a desire as the Government of the United States to terminate as soon as possible a war for which the cen-' tral empires are responsible -and which inflicts such cruel sufferings upon humanity. But they believe that it is impossible at the present moment to attain a peace which will assure them reparation, restitution and such guarantees to which they are entitled by the aggression for which the responsibility rests with the central Powers and of which the principle itself tended to ruin the security of Europe; a peace which would on the other hand permit the establishment of the future of Eu- ropean nations on a solid basis. The allied nations are conscious that they are not fighting for selfish in- terests, but above all to safeguard the independence of peoples, of right and of humanity. The allies are fully aware of the losses and suffering which the war causes to neutrals as well as to bel- ligerents and they deplore them; but they do not hold themselves responsi- ble for them, having in no way either willed or provoked this war, and they strive to reduce these damages tablished at the present gate it is the willful aggression of Germany and Austria-Hungary to insure their hegemony over Hurope and their economic domination over the world. Germany proved by her declaration of war, by the imniediate violation of Belgium and Luxemburg and by her manner of conducting the war. her simulating contempt for all princi- ples.of humanity and all respect for small states; as the conflict devel- oped the attitude of the central Powers and their allies has been a continual defiance of humanity and civilization. Is it necessary to re- call the horrors which accompanied the invasion of Belgium and of Servia, the atrocious regime. imposed upon the invaded countries, the mas- sacre of hundreds of thousands of inoffensive Armenians, the barbari- ties perpetrated against the popula- tions of Syria, the raids of Zeppe- lins on open towns, the destruction by submarines of passenger steam- ers and of merchantmen even under neutral flags, the cruel treatment in- flicted upon prisoners of war, the judicial murders of Miss Cavel. of Capt. Fryatt, the deportation and the reduction to slavery of civil pop- ulations, etcetera? The execution of ‘guch a series of crimes perpetrated without any regard for universal reprobation fully explains to Presi- dent Wilson the protest of the al- lies. They consider that the note which they sent to the United States in re- ply to the German note will be a response to the questions put by the American Government and according to the exact. words of the latter, constitute ‘‘a public declaration as to the conditions upon which the war could be terminated.’ President Wilson desires more. He desires that the belligerent Powers openly affirm the objects which they seek by continuing the war; the al- lies experience no difficulty in reply- ing to this request. Their objects in the war are well known; they have been formulated on many occasions by the chiefs of their divers Gov- ernments. Their objects in the war will not be made known in detail ‘with all the equitable compensations and indemnities for damages suf- fered until the hour of negotiations. But the civilized world knows that they imply in all necessity and in the first instance the restoration of Bel- gium, of Servia and of Montenegro and the indemnities which are due them; the evacuation of the invad- ed territories of France, of Russia and of Rumania, with just repara- tion; the reorganization of Europe guaranteed by a stable regime and founded as much upon respect of na- tionalities and full security apd lib- William H. Kelley’s Skull Was Frac. tured—Policeman Said He Caught Him Stealing Bread. William H. Kelley, 70 years old, of 2228A Clark avenue, died last night at the city hospital from a fractured skull. The injury was inflicted on the morning of Jan. 5, when Patrolman Robert Morek of the Laclede Avenue District hit Kel- ley on the head with a nightstick. Morek’s version of the affair was that he had caught Kelley stealing bread from a box in front of the grocery of George Trendle, 2145 Clark avenue, and had chased him to a yard in back of 2216 Clark avenue. As he ran through a hallway leading to the yard, the po- liceman said, Kelley threw a piece of brick at him, which struck him on the forehead. As the hallway was dark, the police- man said. he was unable to judge Kel- ley’s age or strength, and used his nightstick in self-defense. Kelley had six loaves of bread under his arm and a bread box key was found in his pocket. A warrant charging him with petit lar- ceny was issued. $1000 PRIZE SUGGESTED FOR SMOKE-CONSUMING DEVICE Building Commissioner Wants Civic League to Offer Sum, Saying Crusade Has Been Failure. Building Commissioner McKelvey, ad- mitting that the city’s campaign to abate the smoke nulsance has proved a complete failure, suggested today that the Civic League or any other organiza- tion interested hang up a prize of $1000 for the invention of an efficient smoke- consuming device. He said that of the 100,000 residences and 30,000 other buildings in the city, 9) per cent are violating the law against smoke, and that numerous prosecutions and fines have been almost completely unavailing. With the high cost of hard coal and coke, he predicted that this condition would continue, unless an effective de- vice for smoke consumption is realized. He told of one firm that honestly sought by every available means to abate its smoke, and had yét been fined 25 times. And its stacks are still smoking, he added. YEAR AND DAY IN PRISON FOR COLORING OF OLEOMARGARINE Arthur H. Hamilton Declared to Have Defrauded Government ot — $15,000 in Taxes. Arthur H. Hamilton, proprietor of the Elgin Creamery, formerly operated at 1232 South Broadway, was today sen- tenced to a year and a day in the Leav- enworth penitentiary by Judge Dyer on his plea of guilty to a charge of illicit- ly coloring oleomargarine. Joseph Rut- ledge and Mrs. Olga Lawrenson, former employes of Hamilton, were fined $1000 each for assisting him in the work. Rutledge may serve 30 da¥s in jail and then take oath that he has no money in order to be released. Mrs. Lawrenson will not be required to go to jail, how- ever. Revenue Agents told Judge Dyer that Hamilton had defrauded the Govern- ment out of almost $15,000 in taxes in the ASSAILS STAND OF ALLIES Says Entente Communication Precludes Po3ssi- bility of Direct Answer—Intimates Belgium Might. Have Saved Itself From Ravages. Pv Associated Press. BERLIN, by wireless to Sayville, Jan. 12.—Germany yesterday handed to the neutral Governments a note concerning the reply of the entente to the German peace proposals, the Overseas News Agency announces. It is first stated, says the news agency, ‘hat the German Government has re- ceived the reply of the entente to the note of Dec, 12, containing a proposi- tion to enter at once into peace nego- tiations. The note continues: “Our adversaries declined this propo- sition, giving as the reason that it is a proposition without sincerity and with- out importance. The form in which they clothe their communication excludes an answer to them, but the Imperial Gov- ernment considers it important to point out to the Governments of neutral Pow- ers its opinion regarding the situation. “The central Powers have no reason to enter into any discussion regarding the origin of the war. History will judge upon whom the immense guilt of the war shall fall, history’s verdict will pass over the encircling policy of En- gland, the revengeful policy of France and the endeavor of Russia to gain Con- stantinople as well ag over the insti- gation of the Servian assassination in Sarayevo and the complete mobiliza- tion of Russia, which meant war against Germany. ‘Says Germany Has Accomplished Aim, “Germany and her allies, who had to take up arms for defense of their liber- ty and their existence, consider this, their aim of the war, as obtained. “On the other hand, the hostile Pow- ers always went further away from the realization of their plans, which, ac- cording to the declarations of their re- sponsible statesmen were, among others, directed toward the conquest of Alsace- Lorraine and several Prussian provinces, the humiliation and diminution of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, the parti- tion of Turkey and the mutilation of Bulgaria. ‘In the face of such war aims, the demand for restitution, reparation and guarantees in the mouth of our adver- saries produces a surprising effect. “Our adversaries call the proposal of the four allied (Teutonic) Powers a war maneuver. Germany and her allies pro- test in the most energetic: fashion against such a characterization of their motives, which were frankly explained. They were persuaded that a peace which was just and acceptable to all the bel- ligerents was possible; that it could be brought about by an immediate, spoken exchange of views, and that, therefore, the responsibility for further bloodshed could not be taken. “Their readiness was affirmed, with- out reservation, to make known their peace conditions when negotiations were entered into, which refutes every doubt as to their sincerity. Vondemng Stand of Allies. “Our adversaries, who had it in their hands to examine the proposition as to its contents, neither attempted an ex- amination nor made counter proposals. Instead, they declared that peace was impossible so long as the re-establish- ment of violated rights and liberties, the recognition of the principle of na- tionalities and. the free existence of small states were not guaranteed. “The sincerity, which our adversary denies to the proposals of the four al- lied Powers, will not be conceded by the world to these demands if the world holds before its eyes the fate of the Irish people, the destruction of the lib- erty and independence of the Boer re- public, the subjugation of Northern Af- rica by England, France and Italy, the suppression of Russian alien nations, and also the violation of Greece, which is without precedent in history. “Against the pretended violations of the laws of nations by the four allies (Teutonic), those Powers are not en- titled to complain, which from the be- ginning of the war trampled on justice and tore to pieces the treaties upon which jt is built. Says England Violated Pledge. “England, during the first weeks of the war repudiated the London decla- ration, the content of which had been i siemenientedl _» tion; so that, by her arbitrary measures for warfare a condition of lawlessness has been created. “Thé war of starvation against Ger- rmuany and the pressure exercised in En- giand's interest against neutrals are not less scandalously conflicting with the rules of the laws of nations as with the commands of humanity. ‘Likewise contrary to the laws of na- tions and incompatible with the usages of civilization, are the use of colored troops in Europe and the extension of the war into Africa, which was done by a breach of existing treaties and which undermines the prestige of the white race on that continent. “The barbarous treatment of pris- oners, especially in Africa and Russia, and the deportation of the civilian pop- ulation from Eastern Prussia, Alsace- Lorraine, Galicia and Bukowina, are further proof of how our adversaries point out the special situation of Bel- gium. Belgian Bad Faith Charged. “The Imperial Government is unable to acknowledge that the Belgian Gov- ernment has always observed the duties which were enjoined upon her by her neutrality. Already before the war, Belgium, under England’s influence, sought suppert in military fashion from England and France and thus herself violated the spirit (of the treaty) which she had to guarantee her independence and neutrality. “Twice the imperial Government de- clared to the Belgian Government that it did not come as an enemy to Belgium, and asked it to spare to the country the terrors of war. Germany offered to guarantee the integrity and inde- pendence of the Kingdom to the full extent and compensate for all damages which might be caused by the passage of the German troops. It is known that the royal British Govegnment’ in 1887 was resolved not to oppose the use of which instigated her to this atti falis the responaibility for the | which befell ‘Belgium. “The accusations about the & warfare in Belgium and the meaguee taken there tn the interest of safety have been repeatedly the imperial Government as Germany again offers energetic against these calumnies.

No Extermination of Germans, The intentions of his majesty, the Emperor of Russia, regarding Poland have been clearly indicated in the proclamation which he has just ad- dressed to his armies. It goes with- out saying that if the allies wish to liberate Europe from the brutal cov- etousness of Prussian militarism, it never has been their design, as has been alleged, to encompass the exter- mination of the German peoples and their political disappearance. That which they desire above all is to insure a peace upon the principles of liberty and justice, upon the in- violable fidelity to international ob- ligation with which the Government of the United States has never ceased to be inspired. United in the pursuits of this su- preme object the allies are deter- mined, individually and collectively, to act with‘all their power and to consent to all sacrifices to bring to a vigorous close a conflict upon which they are convinced not only their own safety and prosperity depends, but also the future of civilization it- self. SUFFRAGE INAUGURAL PLANS 1000 Pickets About White House In- stead of a rade. WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.—The Con- gressional Union for Woman Suffrage announced today that plans for a pa- rade March 4, the day preceding the inauguration, have been abandoned and ‘the suffrage demonstration instead wil] be an elaboration of the White House picketing, started two days ago, until more than 1000 women will form a close cordon about the White House grounds on that day. Letters were sent today to organizations in many states calling for volunteers so that the number of pickets may be increased gradually dur- ing the next seven weeks. Although the temperature was 11 de- grees under freezing and a cold wind was blowing, the 12 suffrage “sllent sen- tinels’’ again took up their picketing of the White House today to impress their. cause upon President Wilson. At the White House it was said that the President's invitation for the senti- nels to come inside the executive man- sion and warm themeelves stil] stood.

Hackmann, in the two indictments returned against him by the Warren County grand jury, are that, as County Clerk, he ewore to items of deputy and assist- ant hire in 1916 which were greater Dy $296.5) that the amounts he ac- tually spent for the hire of his deputy and assistant: and that he retained the same sum, $296.50, which should have been paid into the county treas- ury. The first indictment has five counts charging perjury and five counts charging false affidavits. [hese two sets of counts are duplicates, the first five and the second five relating to the same transactions. The second indictment charges fraud in, office, and has one count. It relates to the same transactions as the first indlete- ment. State official. ; The County Clerk’s ‘salary is $1259 year, and he is permitted to em- ploy a deputy and assistant as they are needed. Hackmann employed August Hummel intermittently as dep- and Miss Hattie Elventha! regu- as assistant. Allegations Against Him. ‘Kor the first quarter of 1916, end- ing March 31, it is alleged in the in- dictment that Hackmann certified to the County Court that he had paid Hummel! 448 and Miss Elventhal $150. The indictment charges that, in fact, he paid Hummel] only $38 and Miss Elventhal only $120. In each subsequent quarter, the indictments allege, Hackmann certi- Miss Ellventhal’s salary as $160 and paid her $120. In the second quarter, if charged, the amount certified for deputy hire, as having paid to Hummel, was $144.50, the amount actually paid only In the third quarter, however, indictment sets forth that Hum- received $22 more than the certified, leaving a talance Hackmann on the that quar- a uty, larly fied is heen and $33. the me) amount hire of both employes for ter. Min the fourth quarter, it is alleged, Hackmann certified $57 for deputy hire, us having been paid to Hummel, and paid him nothing. The report for the entire year is then laken as the subject for a fifth count tn indictment, and this is alleged to show that; for the year, Hackmann cer- tified Hummel’s pay as having been $589.50, when it was but $213; and Miss Klventhal’s pay as $600 when it was but $480. This is a difference of $176.50 as to Hummel, and $120 as to Miss El- venthal, a total of $296.50. The same quarterly reports and the annual report are made a basis for the counts numbered 6 to 10 inclusive in the indictment, in which false affidaviis ara charged, instead of perjury. Basis of Fraud Charge. Whe charge of fraud in office is based on the same matter, and the indictment 6a this charge states that, in making his settlement with the county, Hack- Mann retained $296.50 which should have paid into the county treasury, in Xcess of the amount lawfully due him.

Te said the War- ren County Court approved his final set- Uement last week. The indictments are based on the four Quarterly reports made by Hackmann in 6 and on the annual report up to and. including Jan. 5 of this year. Hack- mann made affidavits that these reports Were correct and the indictments are based on these affidavits. Hackmann was the only Republii- fan elected to a State office at the Nov. 7 election. He defeated John P. Gordon, who had held the office of Auditor for four years. An audit of Hackmann’s books was begun at the instance of Gordon, after Hackmann had announce sed his intention of run- Ming against Gordon in the election. flection A RN ame Ne - Srese ae : Tue Men Hold Up Grocer,.

This action came after Representa- tive Cantrill of Kentucky, a Demo- crat, dissenting from the views of his colleagues, during the discussion of the majority’s adverse report on the resolution had requested that the Rules Committee recall Thomas W. Lawson, and Chairman Henry had asked unanimous consent that the resolution be recommitted and that the committee be directed to cite Lawson for contempt if he continued to refuse to answer questions. The majority report was brief. Pre- sented by Chairman Henry, it merely said, ‘“‘No evidence was addyced sus- taining the charges in the (Wood) reso- lution.”’ Representative Campbell offered as a substitute his resolution to make the widest possible inquiry into all angles of the “‘leak’’ charges. **Not one particle of evidence was ad- duced to sustain the resolution offered by Representative Wood,” said Chair- man Henry. ‘No Democrat will submit that there was any warrant found for these charges and surely no Republican will assert here that there was any evi- dence found to sustain them. “There is another resolution, the orig- inal resolution, for an inquiry into a leak in the President's message still be- fore the committee. “A subcommittee has been appointed to consider the conduct of a contuma- cious witness, Thomas W. Lawson, who refused to answer certain questions. Those matters may be considered by the committee and the House later."’ No Apology to Make. Representative Wood of Indiana, thor of the resolution, address House, declaring he had no apology to make for his action. “I was compelled to introduce the res- olutions,’’ said Wood, “because every- where, both in and out of Congress, there were reports that men in high rlaces had profited on the stock market through advance information. There still is a general belief throughout the coun- try that there is something wrong somewhere. That there was a leak ¢very membe; of this House believes. To deny it would be ridiculous. As to whether it was caused purposely or,noi there may be an honest difference of opinion among us.’’ Lenroot Statement Representative Lenroot for an investigation. “T reluctantly have been compelled to come to the conclusion by the action of the majority of this committee,’ he said, “that there is a member of Con- gress whom the committee seeks to pro- tect, and I am also compelled to con- clude that this member of Congress be- the Democratic side of this au- Hissed. (Rep.), spoke longs on chamber.”’ Hisses from the Democratic side and loud applause from the Republicans greeted the statement. Representative Garrett (Dem.) of nessee declared that no evidence, sug- gestion or intimation had been found by the committee that any member of the: House had in any way been nected with stock transactions or a leak. Representative Bennett (Rep.), said that the majority of the Rules Commit- tee. were afraid of an investigation, and that every time the point was reached where there was a tracing of DANDRUFF GOES!

Try as you will, after an applica- tion of Danderine, you can not find a single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch but what will please you most will be after a few weeks’ use when you see new hair, fine and downy at first —yes—but really new hair—growing all over the scalp. A little Danderine immediately doubles the beauty of your hair. No difference how dull, faded, brittle and scraggy, just moisten a cloth with Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. The effect is immediate and amazing—your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abun- Jance: an incomparable lustre, soft- ness and luxuriance, the beauty and shimmer of true hair health.

A. Connolly & Co... a tocal brokerage house, had a private wire to Wall street. Testimony had been given, he said, that the ‘leak’ came from Washington over a private wire. The majority action, he contended, gave the opportunity for fn- vestigation of what wire the leak trav- eled over, and he argued that should be done. The Connolly firm is the one in which R. W.

Robert James Lublinski, 52 years old, who claims to be a cousin of Lord Burnham, owner of the London Tele- graph, and who was arrested yesterday on a charge of passing worthless checks, today at police headquarters was iden- tified by irs. M. B. de Moss of 364 Cabanne avenue as the man who a week ago passed a forged: check on her for $40.15. Mrs. de Moss said that he gave the check to pay $25 room-rent [fn advance, and that she gave him the difference in cash. He never came back. She did not care to prosecute. Lublinski’s arrest was caused by W. J. Knight, a consulting engineer in the Wainwright Building, whose name was forged to the check given Mrs. DeMoss. C. E. Smith, consulting en- gineer of the City Public Utilities De- partment, who gave Lubliinski a job in December, lost two sets of drawing in- struments when the employe disap-. peared. The prisoner told Chief of Detectives Allender today that he had told “all the truth,”” and was willing to ‘take the medicine.’” The Chief offered to bet him a suit of clothes that he had not told his right name. The prisoner in- sisted that he had. CHAMBER OF COMMERCE PAYS $3600 DEFICIT OF COLISEUM CO. Action Prevents Owners of Ground From Foreclosing and Making Garage of Structure. The Executive Committee of the 5t. Louis Chamber of Commerce yesterday appropriated $3600 to pay the deficit of the St. Louis Coliseum Co. for the year 1916. The payment of this sum of money will prevent the owners of the ground on which the structure is built from foreciosing the lease and converting the Coliseum into a garage. Practically all of the stock and bonds of the Coliseum Co. have been surren- dered to the Chamber of Commerce, which is eager to have the city accept the Coliseum debt free and operate it as a municipal enterprise. No arrange- ments have yet been made by which the city will accept the Coliseum. It is probable that soon after the elec- tion of the new president of the Cham- ber of Commerce next Tuesday a plan will be worked out to either make the Coliseum self-supporting or give it to the city. The amount of the annual de- ficit is about equal to the amount of taxes assessed against the Coliseum. ARMY AIRMEN MISSING 40 HOURS Two Aviators Belleved to Have Lost Way Below California Bo~der. SAN DIEGO, Jan. 12.—More than # hours have passed without word from the missing army aviators, Lieutenant- Colonel Harry G. Bishop and Lieut. W. A. Robertson Jr. Mexican cavalrymen are scouring the arid wastes of the Vol- cano Lake region near the border in Lower California. Reports received by Col. W. A. Glass- ford. commandant of the Army Avia- tion School here, indicate that the avia- tors lost their way while on a filght over the mountains to Imperial Valley and were many miles below the inter- national border in Lower California when forced to descend. Robertson was to have acted as best man last night at the wedding of Capt. Clinton W. Rus- sell, aviator, to Miss Morothy Kendall of this city. His place was taken by Tieut. J. L.

Gov’t in- } 'ELLIOE SAYS BRITISH. | Ever, but Will Be Met, First Sea Lord Declares. LONDON, Jan. 12.—The activities of the 4000 ships of the British navy were discussed by Admiral Sir John R. Jel- licoe, First Sea Lord, in an address at a luncheon given in his honor in Lon- don yesterday. “The submarine menace to the mer- chant service is far greater now than at any period of the war, and it re- quires all of our energy to combat It,” he said. Admiral Jellicoe said the menace must and would be dealt with, but the British would. have to make good their inevi- table losses, and in order to do so were dependent upon the shipbuilding in- dustry of the country, to which he ap- pealed to put forth continually and ungrudgingly to main- tain the strength of the mercantile ma- rine, g Referring to Germany’s boasts con- cerning occasions when the German fleet searched the North Sea for the British, Admiral Jellicoe said: ‘®ur enemies only on one occasion have ventured sufficiently far with their main fleet to give us an opportunity of engaging them. No vessels, neutrals or British, have sighted the.German fleet far from its ports on any other occa- sion.”’ | Extraordinary Difficulties, After expatiating on the extraordin@ry difficulties with which the navy had to contend owing to the mines, sub- marines, torpedo craft and other men- aces, Admiral Jellicoe said: “The approximate number of vessels of all classes comprising the British navy today is nearly 4000. It includes battleships, battle cruisers, light cruis- ers, destroyers, submarines, mine sweep- ers, patrols and many other miscel- for the effective conduct of the war of today. “Our activities range from the White Sea, where we are doing our best to as- sist our gallant Russian allies, past the North and South Atlantic, where cruis- er squadrons are at work, on to the far Pacific, where we are co-operating with out Japanese allies. In fact, there is no part of the world where the navy has not duties and responsibilities in connection with this war.’ Referring to the work of the orulner squadron in home waters Admiral Jel- licoe said it was mainly engaged in pre- venting supplies from reaching the Teu- tonic allies. He added that on an av- erage this squadron intercepted and ex- amined on the high seas 80 ships weekly. The Admiral paid tribute to the work of the mercantile marine, saying: “Upon it we have been dependent for the movement of our troops overseas, More than seven millions of men have been tr@&nsported by it, together with all the guns, munitions and stores re- quired by the army””’ Patrolé and Mine Sweepers. In addition to manning the transports, Admir@# Jellicoe continued, the mercan- tile marine had been largely responsible for the manning of the entire British patrol and the mine sweeping flotilla, nearly 2500 skippers being thus employed. “Without our mercantile marine the navy, indeed the nation, could not ex- ist,”’ the first sea lord said. “No one can ask for a finer personnel than we have in the navy,” Admiral Jellicoe declared in concluding.

A number of the jurors were unwilling to comment for publication on the Judge’s action, but some of these ex- pressed great surprise at the partial overturning of their decision. Foreman Talks of Case. John C, "George of 246 Semple avenue, foreman of the jury, was one of those who was willing to talk for publication. He said: “Judge Grimm’s charge to us gave us three alternatives—to free Roy Lewis, to hang him, or sentence nim_to life im- prisonment. When we retiréd to the jury room we quickly decided that Ora LeWis should receive the death penalty.

AR NEW YORK, Jan. 12.—With no loud blowing of herald trumpets, there came to town last night a mu- sical comedy @# rare and persuasive Suality—a tinge of daintiness and grace, blessed with a book of genu- ine. wit, with a musical setting fit for a .composer’s best New Year's resolutions. .

Savage production is this “Have a Heart.” It is the new bill at the Liberty Theater, and is given there by a company of trie and tried New York favorites. The book and lyrics are by Guy Bolton and P. G. Wodehouse. The music is the offering of Jerome Kern, who has never scored more effectively. In the company are Thurston Hall and Eileen Van Biene, the disagree- ing pair who promise again to agree; Louise Dresser, the becoming cause of their unbecoming separation; Billy B. Van, a mervelous elevator boy; Donald MacDonald, Marjorie Gathon, Eugene Keith, Roy Gordon, Flavia Arcaro, James Bradbury and Joseph del Puente, and a chorus of exceptional nimbtleness, tunefulness and good-lookingness.

S, GROWS FASTER THAN FOOD SUPPLY Secretary Houston Does Not Fear, However, That There Will “Be Shortage of Eatables. WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.—The nation’s food supply has not kept pace with the growth in population, figures furnished today by the Department of Agriculture show. The statistics cover the last 16 years, in which the population has grown about 33 per cent, and disclosed that in foods constituting about 75 per cent of the country’s diet there has been le decline in per capita production. Dr. ficials, however, do not fear that there will be a food shortage. Secretary Houston in a statement to- day said: é “With alléthe agencies now avdilable for improving agriculture there is ground for optimism as to the ability of the nation not only to supply itself with food, but increasingly to meet the needs of the world.”’ ; Meat and dairy products furnish 37 per cent of @e food that goes to the American table, and cereals 31 per cent. Production and consumption of fruit and veketables have increased rapidly with- GRANT-DENT MEMORIAL * GHAIRMAN I$ SELECTED Organization te Preserve Piaces of Historical Interest Holds Preliminary Meeting.

Central 6166 RUHR DEFRAUDED CARPENTER ESTATE OF OVER $11,000 No Accounting for $5157 of Life Insurance Money in His Hands for Investment. | The losses to the James B. Carpen- ter estate through Frank B. Ruhr, the realty dealer who killed himself in For- est Park Nov. 6 last, when threatened with exposure of some of his transac- tions, were revealed today to total‘ prop- ably more than $11,000, instead of $4000, as at first estimated. Members of the Carpenter family who have been investi- | Sating deeds of trust purchased by Car- penter through Ruhr, and other affairs of the estate, said there was every Indi- cation that Ruhr’s frauds in this one instance would go. beyond the larger amount. The largest single item of loss to che estate, and one not heretofore disclosed, is $5157 of life insurance, which Carpen- ter carried. Ruhr is declared to have given a receipt for the money when it —— the Bride _or Deserving Graduate Tokens that will invariably give the utmost satisfaction to all variety.

The second largest item of loss is on 10 deeds of trust purchased from Ruhr at various times for an approximate total of $6000. It is the belief of those who have been looking into these deeds of trust that most of them are worth- less, and there is little expectation that more than $1500 at most will be realized from them. Two of them are missing. Converted Check to Own Use. Another item is a check for $700, rep- resenting the sale price of stock in an ice company at Knoxville, Tenn., which was disposed of after Carpenter's death. Ruhr is declared to have con- verted the proceeds of the check to his own use. A fourth loss fs of five shares of stock of the National Bank of Commerce of a par value of $500, which Ruhr is be- | lieved to have disposed of, converting the money to his own use. Figuring the bank atock at par, the four ‘items amount to $10,857. The stock, however, is selling considerably above par in the | open market, so that those estimating the Carpenter estate losses say $11,000 is a conservative amount. Fred G. Carpenter ‘of Webster Groves, an instructor in the St. Louis School of Fine Arts at Washington University, explained to the Post- Dispatch today how Ruhr was en- abled to defraud his family, both be- fore and after his father’s death. “Tt is small wonder that Ruhr was able to defraud my family,” Fred G. Carpenter said, ‘‘when my father’s friendship for him and trust in him is considered, and the confidence in Ruhr Which “Wwe inherited from my father was heightened by his uniform courtesy of manner toward us and apparent interest in our welfare. No regular payments of interest money was made by him, but when comparatively small sums were wanted for temporary purposes they al- ways were forthcoming promptly and once he produced $1000. “Ruhr always was particularly con- siderate toward my mother. I recall {hat when she wished to make a visit to Chicago last summer he not only at- Lended to purchasing her railroad ticke*. but supplied her with money for other expenses, called for and took her to Union Station in his automobile, placed her aboard her train and omitted noth- ing which it was possible to do for her comfort. It was by many similar acts that he continued to beguile us. ‘In admitting our more or less pri- vate affairs to public knowledge, the point I particularly wish to emphasize is that any person making investments through an individual should insist upon securities when their money is handed over, instead of merely receipts, and should satisfy themselves beyond a pos- sibility of doubt that the securities are valid.”’ Was Hunted by The $700 check transaction oc- curred a few days before Ruhr’s death. He asked that the check. be sent to him, saving it would have to go through the Probate Court, and he would atiend to that. Asked to account for the money he gave three personal checks totaling 3700, which were found to be worthless. The Carpenter family,.- their suspicions aroused for the first time, engaged an attorney who began a fruitless attempt at a conference with Ruhr, which lasted three days, until Ruhr ended his life. After breaking two Attorney. appointments he made a definite en- 4 gagement to appear at the office of | Paul V. Janis, attorney for the Car- penters, in ihe Merchbants-Laclede building, at 1:30 p. m. of Nov. 6.

FRANK R. BIGNEY. A Oomplaint From Arsenal Street. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I wish to have a few words to say in regard to «athe condition of Arsenal street at the 6700 block.

The street -swas graded about two months ago—five feet in- = tstead of two and a half feet, as we were told it --@vt-. ade Sev fe & ise wee | success pressing for the wiping out of this stain |which wouid testify to a sincere desire for a just THE ALLIES’ REPLY. | The reply of the entente Powers to the Presi- dent’s note asking for the objects of the war has the merit of frankness. Without entering into details of reparation and compensation, which properly may be dealt with in conference, Great Britain and her allies state candidly, in broad terms, the objects they seek in prosecuting the war. Of course, they are maximum terms, which doubtless would be modified to some extent in negotiations. The restoration of all conquered territory, with reparation for injuries is fundamental. Guaran- tees of future peace, with security of national in- dependence and freedom from aggression is an- other fundamental condition. In these terms there is an appealing justice and idealism to which all neutrals may subscribe, but which is not sus- tained in some of the special objects sought by some of the allies. Nations like Italy and Ru- mania, which entered the war for selfish acqui- sition taint with their terms the just conditions demanded for others. The separate Belgian note adds the cry of tragic injustice and pathos which touches the heart of the world. It emphasizes the force of the indict- ment of Germany for aggression and the demands for restoration and reparation in the situation of the conquered small nations. It strengthens the whole case of the allies. Belgium is a mountain difficult in the way of Germany’s path to peace. The Belgian crime con- fronts her at every turn. The alleged military ne- cessity which induced the German Government to invade and conquer Belgium has driven it into ruthless disregard of all the laws of civilization. It has gone from bad to worse. It has passed from the admitted wrong of invasion to the barbarism of oppression and deportation. The Government is facing now a rising tide of moral condemnation and finds a necessity higher than that of military before it can hope to gain the moral support of the neutral world. The reply of the allies calls for more than the counter indictment which Germany sends the neutral nations. It calls for a statement of terms settlement and a permanent peace on the basis of the independence and security of the small na- tions. This much at least is required. President Wilson might submit the terms of the entente and ask for a similar statement from Germany and her allies. Can Germany give a statement of this kind? Will her own ambitions and that of her allies, including the Turk and the Bulgar and the desperate Austrian, permit her to meet the conditions of the allies at least half way? The present attitude of the belligerents pre- cludes hope of an early settlement. Unless it is radically changed it foreshadows war to the ex- haustion of one or both of the groups of warring nations. But thfe door of peace is open. = = * wwe MR. OWEN AND JUDICIAL ‘USURPATION. Senator Owen has a bill declaring that Judges who hold that an act of Congress is invalid/be- cause in conflict with the Constitution shall be guilty of usurpation and removed from office. How, then, must great struggles between oppos- ing views of public policy be adjusted and com- posed? Nothing is clearer than that majorities, magnifying their own powers, have repeatedly in- fringed the rights of minorities and individuals and that they will continue to infringe them in the future. What recourse will outraged minor- ities and individuals have, if denied the relief of the courts? When power is used too arrogantly, must they start a civil war to hold majorities in restraint and enforce justice? It has become the fashion of late to decry the authority under which the courts resolve in seem- ly orderly procedure conflicts between the su- perior and the lesser Jaw. There is a failure to problem the Government scientists are trying to solve. Surely they should receive all possible help aud encouragement. If a shortage of fertilizers means so much loss to us in times of peace, what would it be in time of war, assuming the United States could be blockaded as successfully as Germany is? = = i i CONGRESSIONAL DESPOTISM. The veto of the District of Columbia prohibition bill would be a wise act by President Wilson, thoroughly in accord with his own expressed prin- ciples and with Democratic progress. The ground of the veto, which js predicted, is the failure of Congress to incorporate a referendum clause. Why should not the people of the District of Columbia have a voice in the laws regulating their conduct? The public policy which vests in Con- gress the government of the district deprives the people of any voice in their own government. They are subject in a measure to a foreign despot- ism, which should be tempered as much as pos- sible by progressive methods, which give the people the power to pass upon measures affecting local conditions. Certainly in sumptuary measures which hardly affect Congressmen at all, but seriously affect the lives of the residents of the district, the people should have a deciding voice. To deprive them of the voice is despotic on the part of Congress. It is contrary to the professed principles of Congressmen and to the principles of American Government. When Congressmen for the sake of political cap- ital at home, ignore their principles and profes- sions they should be halted. A jar by the Presi- dent will help them to a clearer view of popular rights. a &.&. oT~_ Se LESSON OF THE VICE RAIDS. Once more the public has been shocked at dis- covering, through the police raids, that vice tends towards segregation, and that disorderly women, and their backers, supposed to have been driven out when the segregated district was closed, have started a new pest spot, with the tacit consent of the authorities. This periodical raiding of cviaiintiel used for im- moral purposes will always be futile as long as the property owner and his agents are not penalized by the law but are permitted to suffer vicariously in the persons of their prof{table tenants. “ As the Post-Dispatch has pointed out Missouri needs what is known as the Injunction and Abate- ment Law, in force in Washington and other cities, which empowers any citizen to proceed against persons conducting, maintaining, owning or acting as agent for any property used for im- moral purposes. The property is condemned, with all its furniture and fixtures. A perpetual injunction is granted, the place is closed and is kept closed for a year, and all the furniture and fixtures are sold to defray the costs of the pro- ceeding. / Such a law would put property owners\on their guard against letting buildings or flats a unde- sirable tenants. a, LL. — When dead men’s dollars begin to drift into the State Treasury, some of the deficit may be touched. Right taxation and faithful official serv- ice would put Missouri entirely out of debt. THE WRONG BIRD. Opinions may difffer as to Mr. E. V. P. Schnei- derhahn’s qualifications as custodian of the public morals, but there can be little doubt that his training as an ornithologist has left something to be desired. He can spot impropriety in a picture quicker than almost anybody else in the business —gsometimes he even finds it where others can’t see it at all—but it must be regretfully admitted that his knowledge of fowls is limited. In front of a movie theatér the other day Mr. Schneiderhahn saw a picture that set all his sensi- bilities aquiver. For the most part it consisted of the figure of a robust and scantily elad young woman. If there is anything that shocks Mr. Schneiderhahn it is a picture of a scantily clad woman. The heinousness in this case was in- creased, in his opinion, because face to face with the brazen creature was a stork, sacred symbol of maternity. Mr. Schneiderhahn at once denounced such an unholy alliance. Then somebody pointed out that what he had mistaken for a stork was really the ct Squamee under these proceedings, as a nuisance, together |~ as . ‘ : 4 vr, aa : 5 eg tL a © - o " > a “ » je uy Sw F a, te or > x shesede pie “aad es snp Se Gunad ; ~~. 7 > ~ “ ne rn? ee" ‘ 7 eke tS ale ~ asia rai nS eed ; ‘ ~ e ps eae : ) “4 22 Ngiak ap phic eat tere. x a . “? “ ‘ f nial * a *, 4 » . i . tie? > _ > see me gre Bg: A +¢ *hat > a es - + * "oe a i a ee i ee re eee ne . apenas “~ rm artefact r t - agi, ayI yn O ag - JUST A MINUTE a gg ~~ SOO a = ee ~~ — ~~" > an aN te — eee ee Ee ee 8 Ore BUFFALO BILL ENTERS INTO HEAVEN.

Continued financial support of the Department of Agriculture’s experiments to find a satisfac- tory American supply of potash is being sought from Congress and there seems to be every rea- son why it should be granted. Hitherto entirely dependent upon Germany for potash, the United States is actually suffering because the war has interrupted the supply. The economic condition of Germany today is a striking illustration of the risk a nation takes when it depends upon imporations of fertilizer materials. Prof. Arthur Richmond Marsh. a noted economist, declares that because of a lack of such materials Germany's 1917 crops will be eut-in half. The potato crop, he thinks, will diminish 60 per cent and there will be a reduction of at least a third in the grain crops and fully half in the output of milk, butter and meat. While Germany has potash in plenty, it must import nitrates. The United States must import both potash and nitrates. No mineral deposits of potash of any conse- quence have yet been found in our own country. The Department of Agriculture is trying to find a profitable means of producing it from the vast quantities of kelp to be found along the Pacific seaboard. Dry kelp will yield 10 to 30 peF cent of potash. As yet, however, the cost of production five thing and allowances must be made for it when it brings a ruction. Still it is hard to be lenient towards all its ebullitions, such, for in- stance, as the recent one at Northwestern Uni- versity. The faculty there suppressed. the ‘‘He]- uva’” number of the Candle, a student publica- tion, because it referred too frequently to warm, lingering kisses, contained some fervent verse and had a hectic cover. One couplet which gave especial offense was: Her lips both shaped like — bow With most ecstatic passion quiver. Many persons who look back upon/college days must think the penalty rather severe. They, too, wrote verses. Perhaps most of it remained un- published, but that was for want of a medium. Nevertheless, when they stole away for a quiet hour with the muse, what a lot of punishment they gave such words as “kissds,” “ecstacy,” “passion,” “Cupid's bow.” “lambent flame,” “wan,” “mellifluous,” and their kindred! If they could have seen their lines in print oftener, may- be they would have recovered sooner. With all due deference to faculty judgment, would it not have been better to take up some of the Candle’s output for extensive and scientific class-room analysis? Any intelligent lecturer could show that, when it comes to making a pair of lips quiver, a mouthful of hot mush has ec- jand FaR oe, ea is excessive.

It made an exquisite Japanese print more beautiful than any picture could have been. A similar branch of pine; but entirely different in outline, was tacked to one of the panels on the wall, and the other two panels were filled with graceful sprays of bittersweet. You cannot imagine how simple, restful, and utterly decorative these panels were. “The curtains in the room were of a Japanese crepon in the same shade of bluey and a dull blue graas rug lay on the floor.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Jan. 12.—The Evening , o M Post, in its copyrighted financial re a view today, says: . “Anyone who. expected today’s stock market to interpret c nvincingly the significance and probable result of the allied Powers’ reply to Mr. Wilson must admit his disappointment. The Stock Exchange seemed to have no opinion it changed that to express; or if it did, it opinion every hour or two, and ended or less where it began. ey Whether this means that Wall street confessed itself unable to understand the situation or that all reasonable prospect of continued war had been dis- reasonable prospect of peace by the sunusequent decline—which ever is the better theory, the day’s market gave no intelligible sign. If by this attitude it failed to throw light on political or eco- nomic results, it at any rate very ac- curately reflected the popular state of mind. Market Opens Higher. “What happened on the Stock Ex- change in the firat half hour of busi- ness indicated the confusion of fi- nancial judgment arising from the text of the allies’ note. Whta took jlace immediately could have meant ttle except that the uncertainty sur- rounding t ehfinancial situation had been in no wise dissipated by the for- mal:statement of the entente’s atti- tude in the war. “At the opening prices advanced sharply, some overnight gains amounting to 2 or 3 per cent. But almost at once the market subsided, and perhaps half of the advance was lost in a half hour. The market is in the extraordinary position not only of being entirely at a loss to fore- cast the possible ending of the war, but of being almost equally uncertain as to the effects of its termination on finance, industry and security values. Of late it has even become customary to question whether the prolonged continuance of the conflict will have those remarkable effects which brought about the remarkable up- ward movements in stocks oh the ex- change. “Prices on the “Exchange, after the sharp c ow of the early morning, were irre rand without stability for any length of time. Advances and de- elines occurred in quick succession, tained at least a part of their gains. ‘In the late afterrroon, however, a re- actionary movement brought about con- siderable declines. Business was prin- cipally in the hands of speculators on ‘the floor of the Exchange and in the brokerage offices: the outside public generally aloof. , es were al- gaunt Yom. yes- terday's figures affording as little com- mentary on financial judgment as the movement in other departments of the security market. DETAILED REPORT OF DAY'S TRADING IN WALL STREET NEW YORK, Jan. 12.—The reply of the entente Powers to the Washington Govern- ment was made the occasion of another up- ward swing at the opening of today’s market.
