IT CAUSES LITTLE ALARM People Said to Have Confidence in Ability of the Army to Defend City. PETROGRAD, March %.—After the dis- charge of four gas waves, the Germans yesterday attempted to make an ad- vance near Postavy, on the northern coast of the Russian front below Dvinsk. The War Office announces that the Ger- mans were repelled. PETROGRAD, Sunday, March %,.—The news that Field Marshal von Hinden- burg was planning a campaign against Petrograd was received at the capita! with surprisingly little consternation, evoking rather a spirit of calm conf.- dence in the loyalty of the troops, r~d the ability of the army to protect tre city from the new danger. If German calculations are based upon the sup- posed demoralization of the soldiery, or more than a transient defection of the troops at the front from their usual discipline and loyalty to their commen- ders, these calculations are plainly in c7rTor. It is undeniable that during the first days following the revolution the ex- treme radical and Socialist element aimed at taking advantage of the ove-- throw of authority by sowing further Ciscontent among the workingmen and soldiers. Danger Quickly Suppressed. The cloudy state of mind of the pea* pnt population, which, bewildered by th. new vista of freedom and equality, and taving had little experience with liberty © ny sort, imagined that it meant re- laxation of every kind of authority and discipline, made the propoganda of the oe..ators easy at first. But prompt Duma oelegations remcved whateve danger lay in that direction. Telegrams have been received from every portion of the front affirming that the army can be relied upon to do its utmost to defend the country. M. Rod- zionko, President of the Duma, received a delegation from the army, which de- clared: “All officers and soldiers will defend the Duma to the last drop of their blood. They will faithfully obey the provisional Government and will strike the Germans to the last man."’ Freedom from the censorship already has had a salutary. effect in permitting the truth to be published about the new danger of a German attack without the usual accompaniment of extrava- gant rumors which in the past made news more alarming than the truth it- self.

The Russian soldier understands better than| ever before the importance of stil! re- sisting.” The Russkia Volia says: “Russia is on trial.

ASHMEAD BAKTLETT, Foremost British War Correspondent and Recently Representing the English Press on the West- ern Front. LONDON, March 2%.—The dramatic retirement of the German armies from the line of the Somme to the so- called new Hindenburg HMne has come as little or no surprise to the allies’ leaders. It is merely the logical outcome of the last year’s fighting. Haig and Nivelle are now reaping the harvest that was sown last summer. At the end of November lastyear, the Germans were in a desperate po- sition. Their losses were enormous, their men were demoralized by con- stant fighting without any real rest, their artillery was completely out- classed, and they had lost the com- mand of.the air. The French retook the lost ground at Verdun almost without resistance and thousands of the enemy surrendered practically without firing a shot. The Germans had counted on Verdun as a rest sec- tor and sent demoralized troops there from the Somme to recuperate. Could the clock of time have been put back for two . o-.ths a’ the end of last November, there would have been no “strategetic” retreat from the Somme now and the world would have witnessed one of the most over- whelming victories in history. The German general staff could not then have executed this vast retrograde movement in the state their armies were in. But the weather broke, both sides sank deep into the mud, ani the enemy gained his much needed res- pite. Hung On During Winter. During the winter he was making a bluff by hanging on to his Somme positions. His lines have been system- matically bombarded and his men have been given little rest. The al- Nes’ plans for a successful offensive this summer have been based all along on the known shortage in'the enemy’s reserves. Except for the sweepings from the munitions plants and the returned wounded, he has nothing with which to refill his ranks. His 1916 and 1917 classes were all in- corporated into the ranks last August and the vast majority of his 1918 class —mMere youths—are now at the front. Had he attempted to fight the issue out on the Somme front, he would have risked a terrible disaster. His retire- ment now, of course, means gigantic operations for the allies in advancing the supplies accumulated for the big push, and in this sense only is a set- back. The allies were prepared to do tremehdous damage on the old front. What are the enemy’s plans for the future? Primarily to save ti and men. His only offensive weapon left is the submarine and he has staked every- thing on its success. Already the re- sults are disappointing to him. His retirement to the new line will shorten his front a little and release a few of his war-worn divisions, but it is very un- likely the German general staff will make any prolonged stand in the new positions. It will take some months be- fore the allies can get their heavy ar- tillery in position and make that care- ful registration of the ranges without which it is mere slaughter to launch in- fantry to the attack. Roads have to be made, trenches dug and fresh gun positions prepared. The enemy has gained a respite, but that is all, and even this respite will hardly compensate him for the moral effect of this retreat on his already dispirited soldiers. The falling back js the com- mencement of the return of the Huns to German territory. You cannot ex- pect ren to fight in the same way if they know their efforts are futile, and, however heroic their resistance, it is merely the precursor of a fresh re- treat. Such Retreats Dangerous. This summer we ought to see the last of the enemy quit French soil. Joffre has stated that it is not possible for a modern army to retire from one defensive position to another indefinitely. On this occasion, the enemy has succeeded because his line was already prepared, and he was able to place an impassable barrier of devastation between himself and the allies. in all proba- bility, when the allies’ heavy artillery is brought up, they will at- tempt the same maneuver again after a show of resistance on the new front, but on each occasion, he will be running a greater risk. For seven weary months, the infantry has been steadily eating into the enemy’s po- sition and, atove all, exhausting his reserves. Now in a night their foe has vanished, and they can realize the full significance of their sacrifices and exertions. It has now been clearly proved that, given the guns and the munitions, the enemy can be blasted out of any position even after he has taken years to prepare it. The general] staff may make what ‘explanations they like They can call it a masterly retreat to a better battle ground or some hid- den move of Hindenburg’s - genius. These statements cut no ice in the allies’ armies. The men know the truth, and so do the soldiers in the enemy's ranks. This retirement is teh first real confession of approaching defeat the enemy has made. He chose his own ground on which to fight and has had two years in which to prepare it. Now, he has been driven out of his post- tions by force, although for the mo- ment he has escaped an almost cer- tain disaster. The shadow of impend- ing ruin is looming large unless he retires to the Rhine in time. (Copyright, 1917, by J. N. Wheeler Syndi- cate.) the wife of former War Minister Souk- homlinoff. An eight-hour day is being introduced in all the factories in Petrograd, and a Central Board of Arbitration has been appointed to settle disputes. Alluding to the military situation in Russia and the effect of the revolution on the men at the front, Reuter’s cor- respondent says: : ‘‘War Minister's Guchkoff's statement that the foe is at the gate is no mere figure of speech. The slightest relaxa- tion of vigilance and the enemy would be at Petrograd."’ The correspondent then cautiously re- fers to the repercussive action on the troops of the consciousness that the army has been the arbiter of Russia’s destiny, which has manifested itself in demands incompatible with military dis- cipline, and says that already there is news from various fronts of the prev- alence of ‘“‘second thoughts."’ “But,"’ continues the correspondent, “where the men respect their chiefs and the army is fortunate in its command- ers, it is unlikely that persistence in un- tutored claims will be allowed to preju- dice the spring and summer campaigns. “There has been much head shaking, nevertheless, among the more timorous inhabitants of Petrograd, largely a re- flection of the greater freedom allowe4 the press, which has opened the flooji gates of the pacifists, who are shriek- ing against war loans:”,, The correspondent @xpresses the belief that the republican form of government is assured.

Mrs. Nolker stated that while in Berlin on the hogéeymoon trip she was ill and compelled to keep to her room in care of a nurs2, but that Nolker left her to go to the bar, re- turning at 2 or 3 a. m. The plain- tiff’s attorney asked how she knew he had been in the bar, and she re- plied: “IT Knew he'd been drinking, any- how. I could tell by his breath. He would insist on awakening me, against my wishes, at 3 or 4 o'clock in the morning.” She said that they sailed Liverpool for New York on May 22, 1912, and spent a week rt the Wal- dorf-Astoria, returning then to the Nolker home at 4505 Lindell bouwle- vard. “Tell about his habits after you re- turned,” she was prompted. “Bob went out nearly every night, ’ the witness exclaimed, ‘‘staying until midnight or 1, 2 or 3 o'clock.

The witness, turning te Judge Cave, cried: “Why, Judge, we never did have a conversation together. He was absolute- ly indifferent to me. I can't remember a single conversation we ever had.”’ “Out Nearly Every Night.” Mrs. Nolker was asked what her husband's personal habits were, and said he usually got up at 10 or 10:30 a. m., went to his office, and some- times did not return ‘until 5 o’clock the next morning. “During the first yenr of our marriage,” the declared, “IT think he was out nearly every night.” “What was his attitude toward you, Mrs. Nolker?’’ “Sometimes he wouldn't talk to me. He was indifferent. Again he was kind, but ignored me. Sometimés he would scream at me at the top of his voice. He said he would rather be a bachelor. He would say: ‘To hell with you. Go home if you want to. See my lawyer.’ First it was Mr. Johnson. Then Mr. Fordyce. Then it was Mr. Frumberg.”’ Mrs. Nolker gave Frumberg a withering look. The first Christmas after their mar- riage, she said, they went to New York, accompanied by Mrs. Teasdale, at th? invitation of Lionel Powell. Christmas night Nolker said: ‘“‘You girls can stay here. I’m going back to St. Louis,’’ and he went. Mrs. Nolker and her sister returned to St. Louis the next day. Mrs. Nolker testified that when she made her second journey to Europe to study’ music, in May, 1913, she was ac- companied by her sister, Mrs. Teasdale. Nolker, she said, bought the steamship tickets for both and sent candy and flowers to their stateroom. He did not object to her departure, and when he bade her good-by at the pier he ex- pressed neither regret nor joy, She said she received her education from governesses at home and never went to school after she was 11 years old. ¢ “I studied vocal and piano,” she said, “and when I went to Europe to study, it was to find s--mething to fjll my life. Music was my hobby.” In the first month she was in Paris, she testified she tcok lessons from Mme, Alice Verlet, an opera singer and teacher. She accompanied Mme. Verlet to her villa near Brus- sels and there she spent about a month of quiet life, studying music and languages. Saw Cafes With Husband. Asked if she had visited cafes in Paris at- night Mrs. Nolker replied: | “No, I had seen the signts of Paris when there with my husband on my honeymoon.” On her return to Paris from Mme. Verlet’s villa, she said, she stopped with her sister at the Hotel Cecilia. She was very busy studying with a man singing teacher and for two months she de- voted most of her time to the study of the opera La Tosca. There was dancing every Sunday night at the Hotel Cecelia, she said, and she was introduced to many persons there and made many friends in a proper so- cial way. She also was invited to teas and similar functions and at some of these she sang. After some wrangling between law- yers, Mrs. Nolker was permitted to ex- plain how she came into possession of a $25 check signed by Edmund Burke, an opera singer. This check was part of the money which was reported to have been lost when Mrs. Nolker ac- cused Albertine (Baby) Marlowe of stealing her gold mesh bag and purse in a New York beauty parlor. Mrs. Nolker testified she remained in Paris until she heard the German army was within 18 miles of the city. She then decided to go to London. Helped Pennilesas Girl. On the day she left Paris, she said, she saw Edmund Burke running up and down on the station platform. She also saw a little French girl weeping. She said she asked Burke what was the matter and he told her the girl was pen- niless. Burke said he would like to aid the girl, but he had only English gold and as the exchange rate was high he did not care to stand the loss which would be involved in changing his money into French currency. “He asked me if | would advance about $20 to the girl and said he would pay me the next time he saw me I gave the girl $%. After I returned to New York I met Mr. Burke on the street and he gave me the check.” Mrs. Nolker said she was introduced to Burke by the violinist Kubelik, whom she described as being “quite a friend of Mr. Nolker.”’ Mrs. Nolker said she was introduced to ““Baby” Marlowe at the Cecelia Ho- tel in Paris by Miss Catherine Dalgren of New York, and gave the girl some pointers as to the best school for her to attend in Paris. The witness said she also instructed her sister to pur- chase a suit for Miss Marlowe, for which Mrs. Nolker promised to pay. She testified that when Nolker joined her in Paris he looked dissipated and that his face was ‘“‘bloated.’’ but she was not permitted to tell what she remarked to him about his appearance She was confined to her bed at the time, she said, with her foot in a sling, be- cause of an operation on her toe. At Christmas Dance. “Did you attend many affairs at homes in Paris?" she was asked. She said she remembered only one, a Christ- mas supper dance at the home of Jus- tice and Mre. Upton of London. Mrs. Nolker was invited, and made arrange- mente to have her sister and Nolker in- cluded, she related. It was here that the alleged inciden: occurred, as narrated in Nolker’s di- voree petition, of a ‘Frenchman who ran his lips up and down Mrs. Nolker’s arm.” Questioned about it, Mra. Nolker said she never heard of the episode un- til she read her husband's petition. ‘‘The Uptons are charming people.’ she as- serted, “as were their guesis.’’ Attorney Cullen asked whether the witness was in the habit of visiting cafes in Paris, and she replied in the negative. Occasionally, she said, she went with parties, sometimes: inciuding her husband, to the Cafe de Paris, Ciro’s, Maxime’s and the Abbaye. “I never went again, though,” she J returned from such absences, and re- | and Maxim's. That was not the kind ——— ee of life I wanted.” It was on this trip, at the Abbaye, she said, that they met Bertie Hol- lander, who rushed over to the table and inquired if they weren't Mr. and Mrs. Nolker of St. Louis. She did not remember where she had met him be- fore. He became very attentive to Mrs. Nolker’s sister, the witness said, and on their arrival at Nice, they found Hollander and his mother, whom Mrs. Nolker styled “Countess Hollander, in the city. The sister, Mrs. Val Fynn, has testified that Hol- lander followed her to Nice. Mrs. Nolker said she begged her husband to accompany them to Nice, but he refused. Tella of Separation. Mrs. Nolker gave her version of the occurences of the night when the separ- ation took place, with such a rapid and excited delivery that the court stenog- rapher several times appealed to Judge Cave, asking that she talk more slowly. The threatened Broessel alienation case had just been settled, she said, and on the night before the separation she said Nolker went, out with attorney Frum- berg and Kleuge and remained until 4 a. m. Frumberg objected to the men- tion of his name and it was stricken out, but not before Mrs. Nolker ex- claimed: “I Know that coarse-grained anima! Kleuge, and I know what I am talkinz about.’’ Mrs. Nolker said she telephoned to Nolker at the Racquet Club at 2 a. m. and asked him to come home, saying that since the Broessel case was ended, she had a number of things to talk over with him. He refused to return, she said, and promised to do so later. The next night, she continued, he tele- phoned her at 7 o'clock that he didn’t care to go to an opera for which they had tickets, and suggested that she taxe Nolker’s sister. He explained, said she. that he was going to a part at Frum- berg’s home in honor of Kleuge. On her return to the aptrtment, Mrs. Nolker stated, she found her husband, stupefied with drink, holding a book in front of him. She found he had not been to the Frumberg home at all, but to McTague’s. She demanded of him why he lied to her about where he was ’ going, saying that he usually did as he pleased, anyhow, and might as well tell her the truth. She declared thate he re- plied: “Oh, don't talk to me. See my attor- ney.’ She told him that as the Broessel trouble was quieted, she had important matters to discuss with him. His reply, according to Mrs. Nolker, was: “You crack jour whip. Do as you please. I’ve torn up those letters and yau can go to hell. I'm under the advice of counsel now.”’ Told Him to Go, Here fire shot from Mrs. Nolker’s eycs as she told of her answer. ‘‘You will talk to me!’ said she told him, as she grabbed the book and threw it on the floor. “You've insulted me _ often enough.”’ Nolker, she said, ran out into the din- ing roo mand asked Mrs. Fynn to protect him. Then he seized his hat and said he was going. Mrs. Nolker said she grabbed him by the coat, but he shook her off. ‘‘Well,’’ she cried, ‘‘you can go. Get out!” She stated that she did not see him again for a year, when she met him on a street car. Previous to the final quarre}, ac- cording to Mrs. Nolker, she begged her husband to put $50,000 in trust, where neither of them could touch the prin- cipal, telling him that he was not able to protect himself and should have that much money put away.

THE OLD PRUSSIAN TREATIES Weighs Whether They Have Not in Effect Been Abrogated by Germany's “Flagrant Vio- lations of Their Provisions.” | WASHINGTON, March 2.—Germany’s “clear violations’ of the treaties of 1798 and 1828, and her “disregard of the canons of international courtesy” were assigned by the United States as rea- eons for refusal to reaaffirm or extend these agreements. The note of refusal to Germany transmitted throuhg Dr. Paul Ritter, the Swiss Minister, was made public today by the State De- partment and discloses that this Gov- ernment “is seriously considering” whether Germany's conduct has not in effect abrogated these treaties. Secretary Lansing’s Note. The American note, signed by Secre- tary Lansing, follows: “I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your note of Feb. 10, presenting the pro- posals of the German Government for an interpretative and supplementary agreement as to article 23 of the treaty of 1799. After due consideration, I have to inform you that the Government of the United States is not disposed to look with favor upon the proposed agreement to alter or supplement the meaning of article 23 of this treaty. “The position of the Government of the United States, which might, under other conditions, be different, is due to the repeated violations by Germany of the treaty of 1828 and the articles of the treaties of 178% and 1799, revised by the treaty of 1828. It is not necessary to narrate in detail these violations, for the attention of the German Government has been called to the circumstances of each instance of violation, but I may here refer to certain of them briefly and in general terms. “Since the sinking of the American ship William P. Frye for the carriasg¢ of contraband, there have been perpe- trated by the German naval forces sim- ilar unwarranted attacks upon and de- struction of American vessels for the reason, as alleged, that they were er- gaged in transportation of articles ol contraband, nothwithstanding and in disregard of article 13 of the treaty of 1799, that ‘no such articles (of contra- band), carried in the vessels or by the subjects or citizens of either party to the enemies of the other, shall be deemed contraband so as to induce con- fiscation or condemnation and a loss of property to individuals. And that in the case of a vessel stopped for articles of contraband. if the master of the vessel stopped will deliver out the goods sup posed to be of contraband nature, he shall be admitted to do it, and the vesse! shall not in that case be carried intu any port, or further detained, but shal! be allowed to proceed on her voyage." Two Other Articles Violated. “In addition to the sinking of Ameri can vessels, foreign merchant vesseis carrying American citizens and Ameri- can property have been sunk by Ger. man submarines without warning, and without any adequate security for ths safety of the persons on board or com- pensation for the destruction of the property by euch action, notwithstand ing the solemn engagements of article 16 of the treaty of 1799, thar all persons belonging to any vessels of war, pub- lic or private who shall mlest or insult in any manner whatever the people, vessel, or effects ~f the other party. shall be responsible in their persons an‘ property for damages and interests, sufficient security for which shall be given by all commanders of private armed vessels before they are avmmis- sioned, and notwithstanding the further stipulation of article 12 of the treaty of 178 that ‘the free intercourse and commerce of the subjects or citizens of }the party remaining neutral with the belligerent powers shall not be inter- teen ard these obligations, the “Dp ing ’ German Government has proclaimed cer- tain zones of the high seas in which it declared without reservation that all ships, including those of neutrals, will be sunk, and in those zones German submarines have in fact, in accordance with this declaration, ruthlessly sunk merchant vessels and jeopardized or de- stroyed the lives of American citizens on board. “Moreover, since the severance of re- lations between the United States and Germany certain American citizens in Germany have been prevented from re- moving from the country. While this is not a violation of the terms of the treaties mentioned, it is a disregard of the reciprocal liberty of intercecurse be- tween the two countries in time of peace and cannot be taken otnerwise than as an indication of the purpose on the part of the German Government to disregard in the event of war the sim- ilar liberty of action provided for in article 23 of the treaty of 179—the very article which it is now proposed to in- terpret and supplement almst wholly in the interests of the large number of German subjects residing in the United States, and enjoying in their persons or property the protection of the United States Government. “This article provides in effect that merchants of either country residing in the other shall be allowed a stated time in which to remain to settle their affairs and to ‘depart freely, carrying off all their effects without molestation or hindrance,” and women and children. artisans and certatn others may con- tinue their respective employments and shall not be molested in their persons or property. It is now proposed by the imperial German Government to en- large the scope of this article so as to grant to German subjects and German property remaining in the United States in time of war the same treatment in. many respects as that enjoyed by neu- tral subjects and neutral property in the United States.’ ” ‘In view oi the violations clear by the German authorities of the plain terms of the treaties in question, solemnly concluded on the mutual understanding that the obliga- tions thereunder would be faithfully kept; in view further of the disregard of the canons of international courtesy and the comity of nations in the treat- ment of innocent American citizens in Germany, the Government of the United States cannot perceive any advantage which would flow from further engage- ments, even though they were merely declaratory of international law, entered into with the Imperial German Gov- ernment in regard to the meaning of any of the articles of these treaties or as supplementary to them. In the cir- cumstances, therefore, the Government of the United States declines to enter into the special protocol proposed by the Imperial Government. ‘This Government is seriously consid- ering,’ continues the notes, “whether or not the treaty of 182% and the revised articles of the treaties of 17% and 9” have not been in effect abrogated by the German Government's flagrant vio- lations of their provisions, for it would be manifestly unjust and inequitable to require one party to an agreement to observe its stipulations and to permit the other party to disregard them. It would appear that the mutuality of the undertaking has been destroyed by the conduct of the German authorities.” TTT, Retired Farmer Ends Life. BROOKFIELD, Mo., March %.—An- drew H.

LONDON, March 26.—Kussian de- tachments in Persia, pursuing the Turks, have crossed the btorder into ,the Turkish vilayet of Mcaul, accord- ing to an official announcement as forwarded in a Ret ~* dispatch from Petrograd. .0@ Turkish Vilayet of Mosul has an area of about 3,000 square miles and a@ population estimated at 0,000. It takes in the region north of the vilayet of Bagded and west of the Persian border, the Bagdad vilayet bounding it in part on the south and the Persian frontier on the east. To the northwest lie the mountains and the vilayet of Diarbekir. The British are advancing toward the Mosul district from the south, moving up the Tigris from Bagdad, while Rus- sian forces in two or more columns have been pushing westward from the Kermanshah and Sakkiz districts.

GREAT DECISION MUST COME ON THE WEST FRONT" German High Staff Officer Says Colossal Effort There Is Necessary. By CYRIL BROWN A Staft Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch and New York World. (Copyright, 1917. by ‘Press Pub. Co.) BERLIN. March &, by wireless to Tuckerton. N. J.. March 2%.—That the great decision will be sought and fought on the western front was recently in- dicated to me by a high staff officer. | Military men are satisfied that the general military situation has never been so favorable for Germany as to- day, and that the great spring cam- paign, of which the moving tableau of Hindenburg’s retirement was only a curtaia-raiser, stands in sight. Sign of Hindenburg Luck. As a sign of the almost legendary Hindenburg luck, in surveying the gen- eral situation, the Teutor critics see a complete collapse of the grand plan of a genoral allied offensive, frustrated in the west by Hindenburg’s’ retirement and frustrated in the east by che Rua- sian revolution, which, it is held, can- not fail to weaken the striking power of the Russian armies and postpone a serious Russian offensive for weeks, perhaps months. The general entente offensive is get- ting on its legs in Macedonia alone, but there is sinking to an incidental! episode, since the center of military gravity is the situation in the west. That the German people are showing no trace of excitement or even a lively interest in transatlantic developments is probably due to the scarcity of Ame;- ican news. The Tageblatt, which is prodigal compared with its competitors in today’s big Sunday issue, has five dispatches, totaling 53 lines, of allied and Americen news, to which it do- votes three lines, or 30 words, of edi- torial comment. The Tagehiatt offers a (v0-word dis- patch from The Hague, according to which the United Press reports from Washington that war against Germany is certain and that a $2,000,000,000 cred:t as American Chicle ~ Company —when you’ve worked too hard and want something to take away that “fagged out” feeling. | ® Operating vessels between Buffalo ne git, sei ‘ me Abe lien: sista hy # aii pete ggygpe ote FoF iss 0 aban igh sere - ys ad es ene Es Ws Shea Aime ’ nae om ato ee ae stan Reta canneints fons ORE ee OE ONE reg ae © ~~ ot 5 hh CTR GR (YT UE i tO NN TR ME EM RS ne EM la —“ “y rt pot av* y * ae ey ” a TLS ee oe ee * 8 ee ee See * oe ae? ot . for» ™ us ont EO ts 6 at ee el ee ate et eS al ee ae ee ORE mR OUND ye a —— apes nan ay acne ANE ep Rey a : ” ee aoe ~ am me oe ” Owe on akerie Se ee Oe OA ERIN wee ore x —— : MF AE > nth te aa Whe ert pe amin! 5 “i ee er. . 66+ Aha moe Nw Sek ee na ave I aime eee oe te ihe ee Lelie a ek OA AMG Rathi ny Me atten thee te Arn! cepa nladiaere. cane Oe ee eee jor-Genera! of the army availiable for auch duts | 4 Gen.

THEIR DIFFERENCES WAIT Form of Government Fight Probable Wien National As- semtz: Meets. By ARNO DOSCH-FLELKU®T A Staff Correspondent of the* Post- Dispatch and New York World. (Copyright, 1917, by Press Pub. Co.) PETROGRAD, March 24 (via London, March 2.—The two parties which worked together on a broad basis to bring about the success of the Russian revolution are now attempting by mutual conces- sions to bring the country safely through the war. The ‘‘Council of Workmen’s Deputies,’ which appealed to the Duma to recog- nize a state of revolution and to act ac- cordingly on Monday morning, when the revolution started, is the radical wing. In it are the labor bodies, the Socialists and numerous radicals of va- rious shades in the country and the cities. They are designated ‘‘The Reds.” They did the actual work of developing the revolution, once the revolt of the army against the police gave the oppor- tunity, and it is generally agreed are entitled to the greatest credit for the dangers faced and the energy shown in that task. The more conservative wing is the Duma party, who have not the sweeping ideas of social reform espoused by the Reds. They do not desire to upset the existing social order, but only to bring about an effective Government along or- dinary democratic lines. They had an effective national or- ganization in the Zemstvos, capable of undertaking the difficult task of re- organizing or, rather, for the first time, organizing the interior of the country. The industrial war committees are also in the hands of the same type of men. Each Wing Had Important Role. Long before the revolution there was open opposition to the Government by the Duma, and the Zemstvos committees thereby prepared a groundwork for its overthrow. Thus both wings played im- pertant roles in the revolution, though the Duma party alone was organized to take over the Government. But Min- isters, notably Kerensky (Minister of Justice), were chosen in recognition of the part taken by the radical party. During the revolution, when the Tau- ride Palace was its hot center, the La- bor deputies and the Duma committees sat in separate rooms, coming to terms. This was made easier because early } agreed, on the necessity of the — or’s abdication. Most of the radicals wanted an imme- diate Socialist republic, but the cooler heads on all hands convinced them it was impossible to make so radical a change in the middle of the war. The ministry now in power wag chosen by joint agreement between the Duma and the Radicals. So, while the eventual demands of the two wings are widely separated, the im- rrediate purpose of both is to support the present ministry until the national convention meets. This may be soon, but the general opinion of the more conservative is expressed in the wish that it be delayed as long as possible, because all the fat will be in the. con- vention fire. Petrograd is still under the influence of the actual clash of the revolution, so it is difficult to judge here of the senti- ment of the country. But from excellent Independent sources I learn that the opinion of the leading: men of the type of membership in the provincial Zem- stvos is that a national assembly held during the war is likely to cause grave internal complications. Many “Reds” Among Farmers” The radicals .f Russia are not confined to the cities and ‘manufacturing dis- tricts, but are equally active in the farming districts where, because of an- clent injustices, the ‘‘red’’ propaganda finds a ready hearing. The Reds can count on support in the convention of fielegates from all parts. Many Radicals even fear action too quick for Russia's g00d. Democratic Russia, they feel, is too naked and new to face the whole problem of freedom at once. There are wild rumors abroad of ris- ings of the masses against the upper classes, but, while anything seems pos- sibie after the astonishing 10 days 1! have seen, I personally do not believe there are disorders of that kind. Con- sidering the deliberate repression of Russian peasants and workmen under the old empire, they behaved admirably, The nature of .Russians when moved deeply and emotionally was never bet- ter shown than in their acceptance or their new freedom. Their first inclina- tion Was to march anu sing. I have followed, especially in the eve- nings. groups under the “red"’ banner exercising this unwonted privilege, and have been struck by their reverential. almost holy, awe before their happy fortune. They made a moving specta- cle, stopping before the palaces and the burned police stations, singing patriotic songs with rapt faces. This was in Petrograd, where it was expected freedom would be firet abused. These men control entirely the work of the city, the workmen's council agreeing first to let the munition and artillery workmen return. Then they started tho street care and now ar gradually returning to all factories. Untons for all branches of labor are forming, tncluding domestics, who de- mand (and the power of the council! of workmen is so complete they need nut even strike to have) the If-hour day, Su far the street care stop running at 7 o'elock tn the evening, because the workers are busy at union meetings ar night, The Ishvoshike ‘emael!l public sieighe) are algo supposed to stop at 7, but a few are abroad tn the evenings, Gemanding high prices, al Rae 1 Geese lays i SARS insaihdelisg~ Wei Eves tories a wins ee a ed - . a EES ee Oe ee em err! , ON OE EE CEOS GN ERAN DFO ae Oe EG se ea sl ae ee a os mee -A VIOLL- in s a oe GROCER Co.

Yarnall was taken to . fi }@ hospital and an operation was per- mae Ht, i formed. He died three hours later. Mr. and Mrs. Yarnali had just returned from a day at their country home at Media when she encountered the burg- lar in her room. She grappled with him and screamed for help. Yarnall hurled the negro into hallway. The negro drew a revolver and fired, the bullet en- tering Yarnall’s groin and penctrating the liver. He continued to struggle with the negro and succeeded in forcing him backward down the stairway. After fir- ing another shot the burglar escaped through an open window. A handbag containing about $100 cash was taken. Yarnall was 51 years old.

Most of the slight burden of the play falls on the youthful and exquisitely marcelled Joseph Santley, who takes his duties rather seriously. He dances as a matter of course, acts from a sense of duty and sings con- siderately, if not entrancingly. Ivy Sawyer, a blooming British blonde, has the role of housemaid, whom the heir to the lordship marries, because his father telis him he must marry some- one or lose his allowance. Thé father pays the allowance to the wife, and the lordling, after a spell of pouting, comes home to Betty and breakfast ba- con. It is all dashedly conventional. Hitchcock has an English role, which, as he remarked, drives him to Scotch. The Scotch is sartorial rather than liquid, and consists of a recklegs amount of plaid, made up into full-length trou- sers, instead of kilts. This spares the comedian’'s knees and the audience's artistic sense, and is very commenda- ble. His dry, crackling fun never becomes coarseness. He chats with a cockatoo, and at times gets over the footlights, in Al Jolson fashion, and sits on the piano. Singing a sentimental ballad, he comments on the successive lines as ‘“‘rather indefinite,’ ‘‘remote but prom- ising,’’ and so on. “Do not wear the pearis that come home with the laun- dry,"’ he advises his nephew. ‘It’s so Kankakee.’ Another characteristic line is, ‘““You’re a credit to the family; and it's a family that has always asked a lot of credit.”” He followed his song, ‘‘Here Comes the Groom,’’ last night, with a song which he has used in past seasons, and which sets forth the em- barrassment of one who is fully attired, but has no immediate destination. Be- tween acts he made a semi-serious talk, mostly about. Billy. Sunday. _As Billy has not -been here lately, he must depend largely on advertising for the St. Louis interest in him. And the theaters must be credited with having given him more advertising in the last two seasons than the churches could have done. CHEYENNE “WAR DANCE” IS “POP” AUDIENCE FAVORITE Beautiful and Stirring Music Marks Last Program of the Season. Symphony Orchestra or “‘pop”’ consist- Yesterday's concert, the last of the season, ing throughout uberantly played, was one of the most charming programs the organization has ever given. The attendance was un- expectedly large, considering the sunni- ness of the weather outside. The most admirably performed num- ber was Wagner's overture to ‘‘Tann- hauser,’’ but the crowd was most taken by a pulse-stirring Cheyenne ‘War Dance,"’ one of a pair of compositions based on aboriginal themes and written Charles Sanford Skilton, a profes- of music at the University of Kan- sas, who was present. It would be dif- ficult to imagine music more rousing, and the audience insisted upon hearing ii twice. Ernest K. Kroeger’s rugged ‘‘March of the Pioneers’ also was repeated in part. A thoroughly admirable perform- ance was given of Rimsky-Korsakow's ruasterpiece of picturesque orchestration, “Spanish Caprice,’’ and two melodies by Grieg for the string orchestra were played with feeling and charm. The soloist, Mrs. Annabel Clark Ghise- lin, St. Louis soprano, made an excellent impression in her rendition of the aria. “Pace, pace, mio Dio,’’ from Verdi's “La Forza del Destino.’ lier voice has quality, power and range, and was used with much success of expression. She vas also pleasing in three songs in En- of beautiful music, ex- by sor glish, and as an encore gave ‘‘Swanec River,’’ with Dvorak'’s ‘“‘Humoreske"’ played as a violin obligato by Hugo Olk. The concert closed with the playing of ‘The Star Spangled Banner.’’ 25,000 Gillette Safety Razors Sent to Russia. Twenty million American shaves are on their way to Russia. A two-carioa‘ shipment of Gillette razors and blades has been started on the long journey. It consists of 2,000 razors and 3,000,000 blades. They go by express to Vancou- ver, thence to Japan, and finally, by the Transsiberian Railroad, to Russia Thomas W. Pelham, sales manager of the Gillette company, has just started on another world tour to sell razors and blades in Asia, Japan, China, Russia, England, Italy, Denmark and France. The shipment is not the first. Pelham took three tons with him as baggage in 1915. Many large shipments followed. Since the closing of ports on account of the war the company’s only means of shipment to Russia has been through first-class registered mail. Since No- vember the company's postage bill for this business alone has exceeded $25,000. Pelham thinks Russia offers wonderfu! opportunity for development of Ameri- can trade.

Duration Were Banished, She Declares. Miss Dora Néilé.-1711 Oregon ave- nue, this city, employe of the Major Manufacturing ‘Co., 1110 Washington avenue, says T anlac, the Master Med- icine, has improved her health in every Way. “For years I suffered from stom- ach trouble.” Miss Neile said on Feb. 8. “I was constipated almost all the time and it just made me fe} badly all over. I became extremely nerv- ous. “Thomas C. Crawford, who lives in the flat beneath mine, advised me to try Tanlac. I did so, and I want to say that two bottles of this medicine have improved-me wonderfully in every way. My appetite is greatly improved and everything [ eat seems to be digested properly now. The constipation Ras&-been greatly re- lieved an@ I'm not nearly so nervous. “IT can truthfully say that Tanlac has benefited me and I am willing for others to know about it.’ Tanlac, the Master Medicine, is be- ing found surprisingly beneficial by hundreds of St. Louis men and wom- en for stomach, liver and kidney trouble, catarrhal complaints, nerv- ousness and the like. It also is an excellent tonic and strength builder. Tanlac is now being introduced in St. Louis at the Seventh and St. Charles streets store of the Johnson- Enderle-Pauley Drug Co., where a special Tanlac representative is ex- plaining the new medicine to the public daily. Tanlac also may be ob- tained i St. Louis at the eight other stores of the Johnson-Enderle-Pauley Drug Co., and at the Wolff-Wilson Drug Co., Sixth and Washington, and at the Keifer Drug Co., Broadway and Franklin. It is sold in Wellston at the Victor Drug Co. and at L. O. Goedde’s stores, Easton and Hodia- mont and Easton and Goodfellow, and is being introduced by experts in E. St. Louis at Chas. F. Merker’s stores; in Belleville at the Reis Drug Co., and in Altom.at the Luly Drug Co., the lL. H.

To the Editor of.the Post-Dispatch: In answer to Neutral American Mother will say: If my son, John, left home because the adopted home offered him bette? advantages, more free- dom, safety from the things which would be detri- mental to his children’s happiness, and that home protected him through all the storms of his life; if it was even more to him than he expected; if his mother country through greed ma je war upon his adopted mother; plotted with his neighbors, some of whom were his friends, promising them part of his home; that should be dearer to him than his life, answer me, Neutral Mother, which shoula he protect? The mother that he had de- serted willfully or his adopted mother country that loves freedom and peace? Neutral Mother must also think of our forefathers who fought their own ancestors, who gave their lives that we might have the greatest blessing on earth that God can give, A Free Am®rica. If she had read all the history of this terrible war »... would see we have not “butted” into this “turmoil of jealousy hatred, resentment and hypocrisy.” It has been brought to our very doors. My children’s grand- father also was a German. He left Germany on account of militarism and the curse of a monarch- ical government, but my children, thank God, are Americans, born under the Stars and Stripes. I, too, was left a widow with six children. I have worked hard to raise them, but better lose them all in a fight for honor than see them cowards. I feel sorry for the adopted American, but they should think of that before they desert their own country for the adopted one. The freedom that was worthy of our forefathers’ blood, and the law that protected your father-in-law, husband, and now you and your children, are worthy of the sacrifice that you can give, yea, even to your son's life. The trouble with the adopted children of this’country is that they want the protection of cur laws, but don’t.want to prvutect them. A REAL AMERICAN MOTHER. Coercion for Slackers. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. An afternoon contemporary of,the Post-Dispatch asks the question on its editorlal page whether its readers favor the “American” plan of calling for and depending upon volunteers, or whether they favor the “European” plan of compulsory military service. The paper in question has fought the preparedness movement as hard as it could. The volunteer system places all of the hazards of war upon patriots, while disloyalists and slackers remain at home in safety, very often preaching disloyalty. Why should only the patriots have to rigk their lives in defense of the country? If there areé men so lacking in patriotism that they shirk their duty they should be forced to perform it. Then the slogan of the disloyalists, “Let those who want to fight go,” would be heard no more. * “AMERICAN.” A BSwitchman’'s Statement. ‘To the Editor of the Post-Dtepatch, Referring to your editorial of March 20 regarding the Adamson Law, I wish to say a few words in. regard to the pay of switchmen. There are some switching jods in Hast St. Lculs so fast that the man pulling pins works two and one half houra, then reste ““~ two and one half hours. This work has to be performed in all kinds of weather and for this very hard and dangerous work the switch- man is paid 36 cents an hour for day work and 37 cents an hour for night work. The Brotherhood of, d Trainmen pays out in death and dis- abfiity claims about $245,000 a month, or since they have been organized, September, 1883, up to mber, 1916, they have paid to their memters total of $36,747,223.63.

Mayor Kiel, on a request from Chicago, calls a loyalty meeting for citizens of St. Louis to adopt resolutions indorsing the President's stand in de- fense of American rights against German attacks and urging vigorous action on the part of the Government to defend our rights and ~protect American ships an¢ Ame-ican citizens from mur- derous assault. This is good, but if it is necessary or desirable for citizens of St. Louis in mass meeting to speak out on the German war issue, why is it unneces- sary and undesirable, as the Mayor, his organs and advocates insist, for the dominant party in St. Louis to speak out in its platform. Why is the silence of the local Republican platform vir- tuous and patriotic? Why are those who criticise the silence of the platform and demand that the local Republican organization speak out, de- nounced as unpatriotic and contemptible and threatened with punishment for their Ameri- canism? Why is Mr. Connett denounced and threatened with defeat for standing on a patriotic loyalty platform and demanding that all citizens stand with him? We honor the Mayor’s father for his service to the Union during the Civil] War. He was true to the patriotic issue of his day. We commend the Mayor for his preparedness activities. But none of these things touch the issue of today—the issue of American honor and right against lawless ard inhuman German attacks. So we again ask for individual and united reply. from Mayor Kiel and his party organization to these questions: Are you supporting the President in his stand for the defense of American rights and protec- tion of American lives against lawless German attacks? Are you in favor of vigorous action by the Government to defend American rights and protect American citizens from German assault now and always? a. A, Le i i se Senator Vardamann favors arming ships car- rying cotton, but not vessels bearing munitions. There are apparently no munition factories in Mississippi. a «.& a. = OUR DISTINCTIVE DIPLOMATIC PRIVILEGE. Our recognition of the revolutionary govern- ment of Russia was preceded a few hours by a suggestion from France that we should take this course. To be first, however, in according offi- cial recognition to governments based on popu- lar rights is in conformity with the American traditions of 140 years. | ee Our country was the first to welcome into the sisterhood of independent nations the various Latin-American republics freed by successive revolutions from the power of Spain. From that time to the present, though occasionally some other enterprising nation has got in ahead of us by a few hours, we have alwgys been early in giv- ing a word of encouragement and sympathy after upheavals extending the application of the demo- cratic principle. In fact, so much has it become a part of the duty of American Ambassadors and Ministers to extent prompt acknowledgment to new and liber- alized Governments, founded on the assent of the governed, that graceful and effective ways of per- forming the function should be made a part of the special training of our diplomats. Such a training, qualifying our representative abroad to do the right thing at exactly the right moment, will be a particular need in the years of the im- mediate future. Liberalization of governmental forms is expected to go forward at a rapid pace in the coming decade. What American diplomatic official abroad will be next after Francis to bestow the first formal recognition on a further addition to the world’s rapidly increasing list of free republics? = = — The sinking of the Healdton seems to indicate that the safety lane from America to Holland is another one of those German “scrap of paper” jokes. * MRS. GUNNESS IS DEAD Know all men by these presents that Mra. Belle Gunness is dead—Mrs. Belle Gunness, killer, late of La Porte, Ind, Yes, we know her death has been announced before. But there appear to be a good many people who have not heard about it or think it is exaggerated. Mrs. Gunness, you remember, thrived prior to April, 1908, on a farm near La Porte, where she gently but firmly slew sundry males who wooing came. She departed this life the April night that Ray Lamphere, farmhand and occasional favorite of the murder queen, set fire to the house. With- out going into unedifying details, but just to show that there was nothing equivocal about her death, it might be mentioned that the lady’s head was burned off, to which fact witness was borne by her teeth, found in the debris. Notwithstatiding the fact that from and after that date Mrs. Gunness was duly and indubitably dead, many misguided persons cling to the belief that she is alive and some of them, more mis- guided than the rest, spend much of their time looking for her. It used to be that no stout, middle-aged female with dark hair, two eyes, two ears, one nose and other suspicious features was safe from detection unless she had an unimpeach- able alibi. It is not so bad now, but Mrs. Gunness is still being detected in various parts of the country. Now comes a letter from Wyoming, which appears to be the soene of che latest depredations of the deceased Mrs. Gunness. She appears to be up to her old tricks. Two men who were with her when she came have vanished. She is even worse than before she died. Then she was content to kill them one at a time. The correspondent wants to know if Mrs. Gun- ness did not have table fork marks on her lip. Tt is doubtful. Mrs. Gunness did not use table forks that way. It is whispered around La Porte that one of her crimes was eating with her knife. However that may be, Mrs. Gunness, we repeat, is dead. She has been dead eight years and 1s. still dead and is likely, according to all prece- amateur detectives of the country to turn ‘their talents to some other case. é. = = NO FAITH IN GERMAN PLEDGES. The State Department’s explanation of the withdrawal of Brand Whitlock and the American relief commissioners from Belgium is a terrific indictment of German ruthlessness. In curt, di- rect language it makes plain that the work of car- ing for 10,000,000 of sufferers has become impos- sible through a well meditated policy of obstruc- tion and petty persecution by the conquerors. So an enterprise inspired by the purest motives of charity and supported by the highest forms of disinterested philanthropy has to be abandoned. But the denunciation goes even further. It says of the German Government what any indi- vidual in private life would consider the gravest possible affront if said about him by another. It declares that no faith can longer be put in Ger- man promises. “Although a verbal promise has been made,’ the statement runs, “that the members of the commission would be permitted to leave if they desire, the Germah Government’s observance of its other undertakings has not been such that the department would feel warranted in accepting } responsibility for leaving these citizens in Ger- man occupied-territory.” Belgium seems to have been fated to be the stumbling block in the pathway of the German Government’s honor. A Socialist got up in the Reichstag the other day and denounced the Kaiser for starting the war and permitting the population to starve. The speaker was not arrested or even silenced. Autoc- racy will stand for a lot of things now that the gardens at Livadia have been deprived of their royal caretaker. s «+. i a A MISSOURI’S NEW PRISUN BOARD. On no State appointees, barring perhaps the members of the new Tax Commission, will a great- er responsibility rest than on the men just named by Gov. Gardner to the reorganized Prison Board. This new body, succ ‘ding the old, unsatisfac- tory board of ex-officio members, is to put a new penal system in effect in Missouri. That they will again flout the people and ignore the law abolishing contract prison labor, which has re- mained constantly violated on the statute books for six years, is unimaginable. But there are other things to do in addition to placing convict employment on a rational, business-like basis. Missouri, after a long period of abu © M2 Re “4 f Le 5 ae ei AP ae NDAY EVENIN .

Herald. former Clay County man, Joe Ballard, was recently elected Sheriff of an Oklahoma county on a dry law enforce- ment platform. His exploits furnish thrills a-plenty fer old Lome paper, the Liberty Advance. Mis latest the whisky men resulted in the capture of four augjomobiles, thirty cases of whisky, t one guns. Besides making geod, Ballard the game, since the Oklahoma law provides fiscation of cars, wagons and all implements whisky men in the conduct of their businese—aend the Sheriff gets one-fourth of all captures, If local motorboats are to be impressed into the Government service, we suggest an announcement that the enemy is to be at the Chain of Rocks in three hours to shut off our water supply, and see how many of them get there. Our guess is that most of them will be found at the end of that time almost. everywhere along both banks of the river all the way from Carondelet to the Intake towers. 4 | THE SINGERS.

They passed thro’ village strect, With naught but raga to screen them— Before the gaping, bucol throng— And torn sandals on their feet! Pricsts they were from Arcady And, chaplet all with baya, Gallant as an Armada That eatlea the stellar ways! Into the Weat they vanished— They sleep in the Cave of Fear. Aye, we terrence banished— Minstrels from the marketplace— With biudgeon, thong and apear! Aye! The Terrenesa burn'd them With fleer and twiat grimace; Aye! The dull loutsa espurn’d them And epat upon their face! O, never shall they awaken! O, never shall they return Until Piciades are shaken Out from God's blue canopy-—— When Armament shall burn!

So expert are wiremen now-a-days and so efficient are the tools with which they work that the finished job looks as if the fixtures had been installed when the house was being built. The older the house is the more reason it should be wired for Electricty. Immediately it becomes more home-like; it’s more cheerful, more com- fortable, and altogether a better place in which to live.

Friendship seems as poor a thing to her as if you suggested hydrant water instead of champagne Yor bread and butter in place of lobster newburg. You cannot make her believe that the time will ever come when she and her Edwin will cease to thrill at the mere sound of each other’s voice or that they will grow weary of asking each other: “Oose ducky its oo?’ Yet this disillusioning happens to every single couple that ever gets mar- ried and when it does happen, it is the woman who must save the situa- tion by adapting herself to it and going to work to win her husband's friend- ship as she won his love. To do this she must begin with a piece of self-denial, that of constituting herself a critic on the hearth. There is no attitude that a woman likes so well to assume as that of her husband's mentor, but this does not conduce to friendship or confidence. We only tell our troubles, and the things we really do, to those of our friends who will syMpathize with us, and so the wife who wants to be pals with her husband must forego the dear delight of censuring him for his short- comings and calling his attention to his faults. No estrangements between hus- band and wife are more complete than those which grow out of a man’s fear of a woman’s tongue. On the other hand, no bond binds a inan so closely to a woman as to feel that no matter how the world may mis- judge him and deride him or how bit- terly it may criticize him, there is one who will believe in him. still and on whose sympathy he may draw as on an inexhaustible bank account. The next factor in establishing a last- ing friendship with a hundred is equali- tv. Women are fond of adopting one or two poses before the men they marry. They like to pretend that they are either helpless babiés or pin feathered angels. Now, neither the fool nor the superior attitude goes very far in mar- ried life, no matter how effective it was during courtship. A sensible man gets very tired in a mighty short time of a woman that he has to take care of and think for as if she were an infant, or else who is trying tu lecture him up to her level. He nei- ther wants to be uplifted nor to play dolls or tou act as nursemaid. What he wants in a wife is a chum—a partner that he can trust with his life, his honor and his pocketbook; somebody who will share ill luck and good luck with him with cheerfulness: a woman who will dance with him at a ball, or stand with him back to back and fight with him to the last gasp. Finally, @ woman must establish a community of interest with her husband. for that is the rock bottom foundation on which all lasting friendship lasts. She musttenter into his business plans and share his amusements. Few wives do this. Most women affect asinine stupidity when a man tries to talk to them about his business and yawn in his face, yet nearly all men adore talking shop. A man's store or office is the little world where the drama of his existence works itself out, where his triumphs and fail- ures take place, where his tragedies and comedies work themselves out. It may mean just as much to him, be just as much an achievement to make a corner in salt codfish as it is to a politician to be elected to office or an author to publish a new book. He simply bursts with longing to pour the tale of his exploits into some sympa- thetic ear, but how can he do it if his wife turns up her nose at his occu- pation and declares that she never can understand anything about business”? Moreover, the majority of women for- get how to be folly companions as soon as they are married. When the aver- age man takes his wife out she is such a wet blanket on the occasion, ob- jecting to everything, finding fault with everything, complaining that they can’t efford everything, that, as an Irishman might say, the next time he takes her he leaves her at home. Of course, women will say that their husband's tastes and interests Are un- congenial and uninteresting to them. Nonsense. rrecious few of us like caviar to start with, but we keep nib- bling on it until we cultivate a taste for it.

By W. J. O’Connor. While’ extensive arrangements aro being made for the ‘‘Rickey Ban- quet,’’ which is to be held tonight at the Mercantile Club, where many of the more sanguine followers of Rickey and friends of the Cardinals will foregather to hear the details of the ‘‘Cardinal idea,’’ attorneys for Phil Ball are wheeling their big guns into position to begin a legal bom- bardment. However, the long-looked-for lega! action will not be launched today. A long distance telephone call from President Phil Ball of the Browns, who is in Chicago, announced at noon that action would be deferred for an- other day at least. All of which proved rather puzzling to the per- sons on the outside looking in. Gome sort of a legal suit is expected to be filed against Rickey before long What it will be, no one is willing to say. However, President P. DeC. Ball is in Chicago today conferring*with Ban Johnson and before he left last night he mapped out a cafhpaign. It was good tactics, locai American League followers believe, to delay legal action against Rickey. ‘The famous Rickey banquet tuitgnt ise@xpected to prove the biggest baseball dinner ever given in this city.

Our reasons are these: Bert Shotton has tonsvlitis. Del Pratt has a lame knec. John Lavan has a broken fin- ger. Dave Davenport ia on crutches. Tim McCabe is just out of hos- pital. Grover Harticy has a sprained back. The Browns have had little practice. And the Cardinals Gre in the proverbial “pink,” Any time a team ts completely “shot” and entirely unfit, from all angles in the spring, precisely at that time does it win. We cannot forget last Serine. The Browns came home after losing only two days out of 34, in practice at Palestine and elsewhere along the route home. They had been punishing the ball viciously, for the better part of a month, and looked ns ny as a car load of beef steaks would today in Berlin. The Cardinals were altogether a oke. They had worked but little. any of them were on the invalid list. They resembled a whole col- lection of Nicholas Romanoffs.

NO. 6—PITTSBURG By Charles F. Doyle. COLUMBUS, Ga., March 26.—James Joseph Callahan, the picturesque ad- venturer of the baseball world, is confronted with the most perplexing problem of his long and interesting diamond career in his admirable at- tempt to give the critical Pitsburg fan first division representation in the National League. » Cal came down into sunny Georgia with almost 40 experienced and “green pea’’ exponents of the National sport and, provided he does not find too much Georgia pine from the shoulders up, he may be able to mold a team that will be worthy of the fast Eastern foes. Despite the unsettled condition of the Pittsburg club, the former White Sox leader appears to be well fortified in all departments except the infield. He has the nucleus of a splendid pitching corps in Mamaux, Cooper and Miller. and the catching staff eomposed of Fischer, Schmidt and Wagner can hardly be excelled in the league. Carey, Hinchman, Schulte and Bigbee as 2 regular outfield would leave little to be desired from the viewpoint of defense and this quartet of pasture men will hit .275 or better, collectively. Loss of Sisler Hurts. However, oy ty with a defective in- field from day fo day might as well ask for waivers on the flag, and the cause of the restless attitude of leader of te Black Flags. Cal has struggled bravely in the face of the Sisler setback, but he can't help but ponder sometimes on what would happen if he had the re- markable boy who clubbed his way toa .300 batting average in his first year in the highest school of baseball. The first base worry has been allie- viated to some extent since Warren Adams, late of the Northern League, took up his temporary residence in Co- lumbus. Adams was secured by the Dodgers last fall, but when they tried to turn him back it was learned that Drey- fuss and Callahan had entered a claim for his gervices. The youngster is left- handed from soup to nuts and he ought to be proud of his minor league record. Besides nicking the Northern league pitchers to the tune of .328, the wiry boy found time to play on the catchers with very satisfactory results. He stole 55 bases in a short season, and the question of speed is fast becoming of as much concern renege managers as correct hitting. Adams is almost cer- tain to bée a capable fielder and base- runner in the National League. If he doesn't develop a weakness under the strain of the intelligent pitching in the majors, Callahan will have real cause for shooting off cannon crackers on the Fourth of July. Baird Weak at Bat.

Gleason 18S an aggressive kid from the Eastern League; Carlson looks like a find in the pitching box and his action reminds one Catcher Shaw, 21 years old, and built for speed and endurance, torpedoed most of the Kitty League pitchers last year in compiling his .361 batting mark. The eight pitchers who, the writer believes, will start the season for the Pirates are: Mamaux, Cooper, Miller, Jacobs, Grimes, Evans, Carlson and Milligan. The men on the other end of the battery points will probably be Fischer, Wagner and Schmidt. The arrangement of the infield when the ong sounds is likely to be: Adama, first mase: Baird, second base. with Gleason har- ing a chance for the assignment; Warner, third base: contingent upon Baird playing third and Ward shortstop. Carey is sure to play center. Schulte and Bigbee may divide the work in left field or one of this pair may play the position regu- larly. Hinchman with his game-winning 200 stick has the call for the right-field ter- ritory. On account of the uncertainty of the hbat- ting strength hidden in some of the recruits it would be unwise to attempt to name the batting arrangement for the opening day, but it is safe to predict that either LBigbee or Adams will top the list. a.

PALESTINE, Tex., March 25.—With the arrival of the regulars of the St. Louis Browns, from Waco, the team will spend its last day of training in Texas, today, with two practices ordered by Manager Jones. This is the first time that the en- tire squad has been assembled since last Wednesday, when the regulars parted company with the Yannigans in Corpus Christi and went on a jaun, that included San Antonio and Waco, In the games played, the Browns won the two from Waco, but were tied in the one contest with San An- tonio. The Yannigans lost the one game they played to Houston. From now until the team returns to St. Louis, next Friday, Junes will keep his squad together. In addi- tion to the practices scheduled today, games are to be played in Pine Bluff, Ark.,, tomorrow and Wednesday, and a single contest in Memphis Thursday. During these games, Jores will put his players on edge for the series with the Cardinals, which segings next Saturday. He hasn't given out his lineup, yet, but indications now point to the presence in left field of Bert shotton, the speedy left fielder, who has been ill with tonsilitis for two weeks. Shotton Able to Work. While Shotton has been a very sick man, he was able last Saturday to don a uniform for the first time since March 12, and practice with the Rookies. His ability to play next Saturday will depend on his batting durin~y the week. Derrill Pratt is still nursing a game knee and was “on the gate” during the game in Waco. He didn’t put on his uniform for fear that exer cis might prevent his twisted knee from healing. Pratt says he believes he will be O K by Saturday, and be in the Browns’ lineup. “ar eilman and Earl Ha found for 12 hits by the gn ey yerterday’s game in Waco, four more than he Browns were able to pole, but the 8t L oulsans staged & Saates eighth-inning rally an y scorin ree runs w rom sar ayy it pyre -_ ter the Browns had given W two-run lead, he weakened ‘in the rit four hits, an error by Stevenson and two bases on balls, gave the skippers six runs Then it was up to the Browns to get busy.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., March %.—The Cardinal regulars, accompanied by Man- ager Huggins, arrived here this morn- ing and this afternoon will inaugurate a three-game series with the local South- ern League outfit. Following these three battles, the Cardinals depart for St. Louis, arriving there Thursday morn- ing. Huggins and his band came here from Fort Worth, Tex., where yesterday they trounced the Texas Leaguers, 4—1, with Bob Steele and Lou North doing the twirling. The two flingers were in good form, yielding five hits. Steele gave two in six frames and North three in three. The lone tally was counted off the latter. After yesterday's clash, Manager Hug- gins announced that unless something went wrong, Bob Steele probably would pitch the first game of the spring series, net the Browns next Saturday. its by Hornsby, Cruise and Gonzales, with a sacrifice by F. Smith mixed in, gave the Cards two in the second; a two-base error on Cruise followed by Gonzales’ bingle gave them another in the eighth, while Betzel’s single, steal end an error added the final in the ninth. The Yannigans were not so fortunate, being beaten at Denison, 3—1. The youngsters made 10 hits off Harvey ani Kinney, the Texas hurlers, but could not group them. Stngles by Bohne, Wil- liams and Jones gave Connery’s gan their only run in the fourth. eadows and Ames pitched for the Cards. All the tallies were counted off the former in the first three rounds. HEITZENROEDER, INJURED, LOSES WRESTLING BOUT Lloyd Carter, conceding 30 pounds weight. defeated Herman Heltzenroeder in a finish wrestling match at the South Broadway Ath- letic Club, yesterday afternoon. Only one fall was necessary. Carter putting down his opponent with a combined hammer and head- jock after 10 minutes. Heitzenroeder, who was aggressive for the first 10 minutes, while his strength lasted. was so badly injured that, after a long de- lay following the first bout. he announced that he could not continue. =— ill Appear in a Spring Suit, Tomorrow The Cards will be In clover; They're going at the topmost speed To put that stock sale over. The selling force is organized, They're ready to go to it; We wouldn't be a bit surprised To see them up and do it. The boys are in the fight to stay Their nerves are firm and steady: The big spring drive begins today— So, have your money ready. Branch Rickey’s hat is in the ring; Bilheimer’s there with ardor; And one and all have sworn to bring The bacon to the larder. The boys have taken off their coats And at the front you'll find ‘em; They'll whoop it up and feel their oats, With Brother Reid behind ‘em. Or comment, eulogistic; They're working for a worthy cause With feelings altruistic. A banquet sans the flowing bowl Tonight will start the season; Where there will be a flow of soul And eke a feast of reason. Branch Rickey will be introduced. And he'll be glad to se y'u; He wants you to jump in and boost The Cardinal Idea. * Atta Boy, Mary! ‘Fr HERE was a young lady named Browne, Who gained quite a bit of renown; At tennis she worsted Miss Molla Bjursted And jostied her championship crown, Giddap! “Mule” Watson is reported to be ready for the spring drive.

Corn futures were strong with wheat, but after selling 1c higher reacted sharply on profit taking. Oats were firm with corn. Crop Expert B. W. Snow wired: “I continue to get reports claiming mate- rial damage to the wheat crop, particu- larly in the far Southwest, and in Ne- braska and Western Kansas-and to a less but important extent in Indiana, I1l- inois, Kentucky and Tennessee. It is well, however, to recognize, the fact that the season is a trifle late and there has not been sufficient experience of graw- ing weather and spring rains to justify a calamitous conchusion on the basis of the a © gpwerenee of the plant, for there is amp opportunity for spring growth. I believe, from my advices, that the first report of condition is likely to be comparatively low, but I am not yet pre- pared to accept as face value some of the wild crop‘atories that are being cir- culated.

I wish to make the most of euch a day. I shall go alone.’’ “You will want some extra wraps, urged the maid. ; “No, not today. I am not going very — high, only among the clouds, to’ be out ef reach of callers. If any should come you may tell them—or no, you need not tell them anything. Maybe I shall want tu rise tomorrow, and the next day, and the next.”’ Then as the maid hurried away she shrugged her shoulders. “It is eo hard to decide,” she said aloud, “when there is no cause for @ decision—I mean when neither of the two survivals will give a reason for a cause. They are both perfect, and either would be the one were it not for the ether. Why—but there they are now,’ as two sets of footsteps sounded firmly on the sidewalk, coming from opposite directiens and reaching the gate simu:- GOob- BYE, .

Hadn't I better run it for you?’ “No, indeed, I will run it myself. But Mr. Gary and Mr. Daws can go with me for company if they wish, ‘looking at them inquiringly. ‘I think you have been up before.”’ “Sure, I'll go,” and ‘‘Certainly,’’ the young men exclaimed simultaneously, and one cf them added: ‘Yes, I have made a few flights, as an amateur.” With Michel's assistance they were goon in the car and rising from the ground. But once above the tree tops of the lawn Alicia put on more speed and mounted rapidly toward the sky in swift. upecurving circles. The lower clouds were soon passed, with now and then one of them enveloping the car in its damp folds.

Gen- eraily 1 don't indulge in second thouglits.’’ Another 20 minutes of circling up, with an almost corresponding number of de- grees in a falling temperature, then Alicia herself commenced to shiver, even in her wraps. “It's d-d-d-delightful,"’ remarked Mr. Dawes, coolly. “Charming,” agreed Alicia. ‘So airy, you know, and comfortable. None of the Sweltering heat we have been experi- encing below. Now if only the gasoleng doesn't give out. Gasoline is so useful in keeping the motor going.” The men shot glances toward the mo- tor.

Bo one day the wicked Nardo began to think of some plan by which he could be rid of Tito so that his fa- ther would make him King and give him all hie broad lands. He pretended to be very gind to Tito, end they went hunting and rid- ing together, but one day when ‘hay were in the forest Nardo fell upon Tito and took off.his clothes aad tied te a tree, * * The King’s Sons and the Peart. {. Princess He then tore his poor brothe.’s clothes and also his own, so that he could tell the King a wild beast had attacked them and that poor Tito had been slain. Nardo told the King he defended Tito, and was almost killed in doing so, and that just as the beast was carrying off hie brother he i2ade a last effort to save him, and that was the way he happened to have hts pour brother’s clothes to bring back. Nardo pretended to grieve and fee! very sad, indeed, over the sad fat» of his brother, but all the time he was thinking, “Now I will be King as soon as my father ia out of the way.” But the King did not die son enough to suit the wicked, scheming Nardo, and one night when the old King Was in bed asleep he bribed a servant as wicked as himself to help him bind the King and cast him into a dungeon under the castle. Here the poor old King stayed for months, with only a little food and no light, excepting that which crept in through the narrow window bars. After Tito was left tied to the trea by his bad brother he gave hims:2lf up for lost, for he knew that wi'd beasts roamed the forest, and thar if one of those did not devour him he would starve, for he could not wn- fasten the cords whiclr bound him. But that night when he had given up all hope Tito heard a crooning noise near the tree where he stond, and it seemed to come nearer and nearer until it was close beside him. Then he could make out words in a funny sing-song voice: “T'll find the Prince tied to a tree. But with this stick I'll make him free.”’ Tito turned his head and saw an oid witch hobbling toward him, and when she reached the tree she stopped. “Ah! there you are, my dear,”’ she said. ‘Your wicked brother did not know that you were born under a lucky star and that it would guide me to you.’ The old witch struck the cords that bound him with her cane and Tito was free. , Then the witch touched Tito with her cane and he was dressed in a suit of black velvet with a long plume in his hat. “You will need a horse, too,” said the witoh, and she struck a rock and before Tito there appeared a beautiful black horse with tra of gold and velvet. “Now, my noe, ride away to your Princess; you will find her waiting for you in a tower on top of a mountain which you will see when you leave the forest.”’ “But what can I do for you, my good woman? You have saved my life,” said Tito. “You can rescue the Princess,” said the witch. “And remember that all the witches are not bad; some of them are good, just like you mortais.‘ ‘ So Tito said good-by to the witch ana rode away, wondering at all the stiange things that had happened, and wonder- Explicit.
