VON HINTZE BACKED FOR HIGH POST Bernstorff Also Proposed to Succeed Zimmermann as Foreign Secretary in Ef- fort to Block Appointment of Count Rantzau. Majority Bloc in Reichstag Plans to Demand Chancel- lor Michaelis Accept Its Peace Terms Resolution. a ee Hollwe agnd Zimmermann Are Accused of Playing a Double Game With Presi- dent Wilson. PARIS, July 17.—A Zurich dispatch to the Petit Parisian says Count Von Bernstorff has been appointed German Minister at Copenhagen in the place of Count Brockdorff Rantzau. COPENHAGEN, July 17.—The se- lection of a successor to German For- eign Secretary Zimmermann. is stil] Said to be unsettled. Pressure has been brought from two directions to block, first, the proposed nomination of Count Brockdorff-Rantzau, the German Minister at Copenhagen, and to substitute Admiral von Hintze, Minister to Nor-vay, or Count von Bernstorff, former Ambassador to Washington. The present Minister to Christiania &reatly desired by Pan-Germans and advocates super-vigorous policy, not only on account of his high dip- lomatic qualifications but chiefly on account of his antecedents. Apparently it is felt that a former naval officer, particularly one who Played such a prominent role at Man- ila in the events of 1898, will offer the mecessary guarantee that the German foreign policy in regard to peace negotiations will be conducted along desired energetic lines. The E.mperor is said to favor Von Hintze. The Bernstorff party, which has eprung up since the return of the former Ambassador, is endeavoring to orfanize a boom for him. Georg Bernhard, the political writer, has enthusiastically recommended Bern- storff to Chancellor Michaelis, not on- lv as a capable and experienced dip-. lomat but as a person of the neces- sary Caliber and qualifications whom the Chancellor will need as coad- jutor and adviser the coming peace negotiations. Michaelis’ Chancellor Michaelis special dispatches from Berlin us work- ing night and day on his’ program speech and the selection of new mate- ria) for the Prussian imperial adminis- tration. The Local Anzeiger says the changes have been completed and the new Chan- cellor will appear in the Reichstag ac- companied by all his colleagues. The Tageblatt says Herr Michaelis is reticent on his policy. The Reichstag is expected to adjourn Friday until Sept. 1, voting the war credits almost unani- mously, A dispatch from Berlin says the ma- jority bloc plans to present peace terms in a resolution to the Reichstag Thurs- day, and to demand from Dr. Michaelis a statement that he accept it in princi- ple, otherwise co-overation is impossi- ble. Meanwhile, the execution of this plan depends upon the extent to which the bloc holds together. The Tageblatt, the Mittag Zeitung and the Socialist organ Vorwaerts, all of Berlin, unite in declaring that the ca..- didacy of Admiral von Hintze for For- eign Minister is a move of the super- annexationisis. The Tazgeblatt and Vor- waerts warn Michaelis that he cannot accept Von Hintze without compromis- ing the administration with a Pan-Ger- man taint. The Deutsche Tages Zeituns supports Von Hintze’s candidacy. Comment on Hollweg. In their reviews of the administration of the retiring German Chancellor, Dr. Von Berthmann-Hollweg, the German newspapers comment prominently, and often in an uncomplimentary manner, on his treatment of relations with America. In the Vossische Zeitung, Georg Bernhard openly accuses Dr. Yon Bethmann-Hollweg and his former secretary, Dr. Zimmermann, of having played a double game with Washington, making war inevitable by attempts to deceive and misiead President Wilson in regard to the policy and intentions of Germany. Herr Bernhard intimates that the sub- marine policy, if managed skillfully, might not have led to war with the United States had not these diplomats artificially increased the danger and destroyed every chance of avoiding a break. He says they encouraged the idea of mediation by President Wilson in America, but did nothing to make it ac- ceptable at home, launched the pro- posal to Mexico to turn against the United States, while negotiating with Mr. Wilson, and arranged the dinner to Ambassador Gerard and approved the text of. the speeches delivered at the dinner. and then astounded the Presi- dent and the Ambassador with the sub- marine note. As to this note.

SAN JUAN, P. R., July 17.—Porto Rico ,oted for prohibition by a big majority at yesterday's election. With four un- important towns missing, the returns showed 99,775 votes for prohibition and 61,295 against. ‘Fifty-one municipalities voted for the prohibition measure, as compared with “1 opposed to it. San Juan’s vote fo: rrohibition was 5117 for and 2205 against, and all the other large cities were strongly on the dry side. ‘ The vote in Cayey, the mountain sum- mer resort town, showed on incomplete returns 2247 tor to 116 against. Neither Unionist nor lt.epublican part, teok a stand on prohibition, but the So- Cialist party worked for a dry island. The Jones law, granting citizenship to the people, provided that the _ island should go dry in 1918, unless the inhabi- tans decided otherwise at a general elec- tion. The token on the dry hallot was a co- coanut, the milk of which is a favorite beverage, and the wet ballot bore the picture of a rum bottle. These marks were essential, as a con:iderable portion of the population is unable to read. Felix Cordova Deavila. Unionist, was chosen Resident Commissioner at Wasn- ington, and the Unionists carried five out of seven senatorial districts, the other two going for the Republican con- didates. The division of the parties in the lower House is uncertain, but the Unionists will have a majority. The _ Socialist gains that were scored throughout the island were chiefly at Republican ex- pense. BARRED ALIEN, A GERMAN, SHOOTS HIMSELF IN BREAST Found in O’Fallon Park With Notice About Permit in Pocket—Says Restriction Hampered Work. Carl Fabian, 50 years old, of 1434 Far- ragut street, a German, seriously wounded himself with a revolver at 5:30 o’clock this morning in O'Fallon Park, because, as an enemy alien, he was not permitted to erter the barred zones. He had in his pocket a notice from. the United States Marshal directing him to appear yesterday to complete his ap- plication for a permit. He was found on a park bench by a lamplighter, who heard three shots. Ore bullet had penetrated his left breast. but this was his only wound. The po- lice were not able to account for the Other two shots. At the city hospital Fabian told fio- licemen that ne had taken out first nat- uralization papers, but had not taken out second papers. He said the fact that he was berred from certain indus- trial zones made it difficult for him to obtain work at his trade, that of a car- penter, and worried him. He lives with his wife, Anna. DIVIDENDS DECLARED FOR RED GROSS FAIL TO REACH IT Appeal Made to Shareholders Whe Get Special Payments That Money Is Needed at Once. NEW YORK, July 17.—The fact that millions of dollars in Red Cross divi- dends declared by corporations have not been paid to the organization by the re- cipients was made known in an appeal to the shareholders in such corporations, issued here today by the American Red Cross Wer Finance Committee. A great quantity of stores and equip- ment can be bought with ‘“‘the millions outstanding in Red Cross dividends,” the appeal declares, and ‘‘the generosity of these corporations will have been in vain if shareholders fail to give the dividends to the Red Cross. Without these divi- cends the Red Cross will be hampered in its work of mercy.” Christian Scientists Can Fight.

She is now unconscious at the city hospital. According to Dietrich, a saloon keeper, Petring and Mrs. Hagemeyer came to him at 11 o’clock last night and asked for a room for t night in his place above the saloon. e told the police that Petring said Mrs. Hagemeyer was his wife. At 8 o'clock this morning Dietrich said his wife awoke the occupants of the room, after which she _ retired again. Later, Dietrich said, three shots were heard, and Petring stag- gered into his room, announcing that Mrs. Hagemeyer had “got him.’’ Dietrich said Petring walked back to his room, and then it was discov- ered that Mrs. Hagemeyer was also wounded. She was seated in a chal. Dietrich said, with blood flowing down her face. Petring died shortly after- ward. To the police Mrs. Hagemeyer said she had quarreled with Petring; thar he had shot her, after which she wrestled with him, zot possession of the revolver and s..0ot him. At the Petring home, 2716 Leffing- well avenue, sisters of the. patro!- man said their brother had visited them with Mrs. Hagemeyer, whom he introduced as Miss Freda Kroner. They said they latér learned her name is Hagemever. Mrs. Hagemeyer is about 28 years old. She told the police her mother lives at 2306 Farrar street. Mrs. D. Klerner, Mrs. Hagemeyer’s mother, said her daughter was granted a divorce from her husband, Fred J. Hagemeyer, about two months ago and has since been living with an aunt at 5016 Plover avenue. GIRL LOSES PETTICOAT BUT DANCES ON AT SUNSET HILL Partner Quickly Picks It Up; Slips It Under His Coat, and Not a Step Is Lost. Guests at the weekly dinner dance at Sunset Hill Country Club are telling their friends who were not so fortunate as to be there to witness it for them- selves of an amusing little incident last Saturday night that lost ncne of its spice througn the adroit manner in which the young ccuple who participated in it bridged what might have been a very embarrassing moment for them. The dancing balcony was thronged with couples whirling through one of Gus Haenschen’s most peppery trots, when a filmy garment slipped down upon the feet of a young woman in the center of the floor. Without losing a measure of the dance, she stepped. out of the petticoat—for such it was—tell- ing her partner at the same time tc pick it up. Suiting his action to her word, he stooped, grabbed the garment in his hand, crumpled it and thrust i under his coat—all without hesitating in the dance. Then they trotted away towards the women’s dressing room, mhile the other dancers who had wit- nessed the episode smilingly voice.! among themselves their approval of the way in which the incident had been handled. trict, cye, she said was Guess Which Yesterday petition 6 days out of every Monday's count of !

DRAFT DRAWING LIKELY SATURDAY: MIGHT Bt FRIDAY Only Ten States, Missouri Being One, Have Failed to Com- plete Returns. 649 PRECINCTS MISSING Officials Believe That Entire 4559 Will Be Complete in 48 Hours. WASHINGTON, July 17.—With only 1) states remaining to be heard from on the organization of local exemption boards, and with the serial number lists of reg- istrants from all but 649 of the 4559 ex- emption districts on file in Washington. Provost Marshal Gen. Crowder was hopeful today that the preliminary stages of the war army drawing would be completed within 48 hours. He pre- pared to take up with Secretary Baker in the day details of the lottery process for final approval. If there is no unexpected delay, it seems likely that the drawing can be beld Friday or Saturday. A single dis- trict which fails to finish its preliminary work on time, however, can hold up action indefinitely. Ten States Which Are Missing. The 10 states not having completed their preparations for the drawing are’ Alabama, Illinois, New York, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia. The group includes the states hav- ing the largest population and prob- ably the total of all 10 represents al- most half of the population of the entire country. So that easier access may be had to the lists of registration serial numbers in the hands of local boards, Gen. Crowder telegraphed the Governors of all states asking that, instead of posing the lists at the board offices they be placed in some safe central office, such as police headquarters.” In the the larger cities especially, the Provost Marshal General said, much inconvenience has been caused by having the lists available only at out- of-the-way board offices. Wider Posting of Lists. Officials here are anxious that local boards make it clear everywhere that no question of exemption of any reg- istered man for any other cause than, physical disability or dependent rela- tives can be taken up before the lo- cal boards. The whole matter of in- dustrial exemptions is left to the su- perior boards, one of which has been created in each Federal judicial dis- trict. No individual case where exemption is desired because the registrant is engaged in an industry as vital to the conduct of the war will be taken up until that individual has been called up for examination ty his local board, found to be without dependents and physically fit for military duty, and certified to the superior board. After that application to the _ superior board for exemption on other grounds will be admissible. The registrant or his employer may file necessary affi- davits with the superior board seek- ing exemption and the case will be heard promptly. Another point on which there has been much doubt is the status of regis- trants absent from their registration dis- tricts. Scores of requests have come from men in this situation asking if they will have to return to their home towns for examination. They have been in- formed that if they are selected for examination each will be notified by mail by his local board and then apply to the local board for permission to undergo examination in the town where he is located. Such action cannot be taken, however, until the registrant has actually beea summoned by his local board. Senate Asks Redfield to Explain How Draft Quotas Were Obtained. WASHINGTON, July 17.—The Senate by unaminous vote adopted a resolution vesterday directing Secretary Redfield of the Department of Commerce to ex- plain to the Senate how the draft quotas were determined. It was charged by Senators Brandegee, Lodge and Pomerene that Northern and Western cities had been credited with much larger populations than they pos- sess. Brandegee read newspaper clipp- ings, saying that Connecticut cities had been boosted far beyond their actual population. Lodge declared that South- ern. cities had not received credit for the population they actualiv claim That population figures for some of the large cities were exaggerated for making up draft army quotas, especially ir. communities where a heavy percent- age of eligibles were found registered. was admitted today in the explanations of officials accounting for the jump in figures after the national registration.

TWO OTHERS GET AWAY Reach the Netherlands Shore After Being Damaged Severely by Gun Fire. LONDON, July 17.—A Reuter dispatch from Ymuiden says four German ships have been sunk by British destroyers 1n the worth Sea, four captured, three stranded and three forced to return to Rotterdam. Since. Saturday 17 German steamers have sailed from Rotterdam, three at cne time und 14 at another, the*dispatch says. Of the first group, one, the Mag- dalena Blumenthal, 1535 tons gross, was wrecker off Zandvoort. Of the second group, owing to the action of British destroyers, not one vessel was able to proceed, eight being captured or sunk and three succeeding in putting back to Rotterdam. Of the three remaining steamships, which were stranded, two were afire. LONDON, July 17.—The Admiralty an- nounces the capture of four German steamers by British destroyers in the North Sea. The steamers are the Pellworm, Brietzing, Marie Horn and Heinz Blum- berg. Two other German steamers were with the four vessels later captured when the group was signaled by the British war craft. All six made for the Dutch coast, and two of them reached the shore. These two were badly damaged by gun fire. The captured steamers are all small, the largest being the Brietzeig of 149 tons gross, owned in Hamburg. The Pellworm, 1370 tons gross, also was owned in Hamburg. The Marie Horn, 1008 tons, is from Schleswig and the Heinz Blumberg, 1226 tons, is registered from Hamburg. German steamers revcentty have been plying between Hamburg and Rotter- dam. Armed steamers are not allowed to enter Dutch ports. 175 FINED FOR FAILURE TO MAKE INCOME TAX RETURNS Supposed None Was Required Be- cause They Were Exempt From Payment—Unaware of New Law. The Government is collecting $875 in fines this week from 175 St. Louis- ans who were unaware of an amend- ment to the income tax law, last September, which makes it necessary for every person, with an income of $3000 or more to file an individual] in- come tax return, regardless of whether he has to pay an income tax, or whether a claim for nis ex- emption had been filed by his em- ployer. The fines were paid by men whose incomes in 1916 was in excess of $3000, but who were entitled to a $4000 exemption because they are heads of families. These men were under the impression that they did not have to make an individual re- turn, inasmuch as they did not owe any income tax. A number of those fined were Washington University professors. Violation of the new amendment is punishable by a fine of $20 to $1000, but Collector Moore smilingly as- sesses a ‘“‘nominal fine of $5, to save having to pay a thousand.” ee + ae ee tw — eee 30,000 WOULD BE OFFICERS CHICAGO, July 17.—More than 30,000 men have applied from the Central De- partment of the Army for admission tu the second officers’ training camps and from these 5796 men will be chosen.

PUT Tit CITY ON DEFENSIVE —_ Company, Owing St. Louis $2,- 200,000 Now Sits in Judgment on All Its Proposals. NEW SCHEME OFFERED Mayor Suggests Tax on Gross Receipts—3 Per Cent Dis- cussed at Conference. In negotiations with the United Rail- ways Co. for the settlement of the mill tax controversy and the validation of the city its representatives the corporation's franchises, has been placed by in a defensive position, as if it were the author of the company’s troubles. At th Same time the corporation, which owes the city $2, 200,000 in taxes and which hopes to obtain recognition of its fran- chises, sits in judgment on all the city’s proposals. Thomas M. Pierce, attorney for the company, at last night’s conference be- tween city offcials and United Rail- Ways representatives, several times re- minded Mayor Kiel that the plan for making the city a partner in the owner- ship and operation of the street rail- ways was ‘“‘the city’s, not ours.” These reminders were Pierce’s answer to Mayor Kiel’s statements that the origi- nal proposal for joint ownership and operation had been opposed. Provisions of Second Proposal. The second proposition which came from Mayor Kiel and City Counselor Daues contains the following provisions: Substitution of a tax of 3 peer cent on the company’s gross revenues for the present mill tax per passenger, franchise licenses ard occupational taxes. The company to pay the accrued mill taxes in five years, without in- terest; 5 per cent interest to be paid on any balance at the end of that period. The city to validate until 1948 all the company’s underlying franchises. The company to make extensions _ordered by a board of control, which ‘would consist of a representative of the city, an official of the company and an arbitrator to be appointed by the St. Louis Court of Appeals in the event of a disagreement between the other two. The option of purchasing the eom- pany’s properties at the end of 10 years, and at the expiration of any subsequent five-year period, the price to be $60,000,000 plus the cost of ex- tensions and improvements. The plan to be subject to a refer- endum under the provisions of the charter. The replacement of the mill tax by a tax on the company’s gross revenues would mean a decrease of about $100,000 a year in the corporation's expenses and a corresponding reduction of the city’s income. It is contended, how- ever, by Mayor Kiel, that the new tax on the company’s gross revenues would eventually equal or exceed the aggre- gate of all the present license and oc- cupational taxes collected from the company. Present Taxes Would Be Abolished. This latest proposition fathered by Mayor Kiel and City Counselor Daues for consideration by the United Rail- ways Co. contemplates tne aboiition of the mill tax and all present franchise license taxes. This plan, together with that for a partnership between the company and the city, will be introduced in the Board of Aldermen Friday dinances. in the form of or- It is intended that after pub- lic hearings one of the two will be passed. City Counselor Daves and Attorney Pierce for the company will begin to day ‘or tomorrow the draft of the biil embodying the new scheme suggested by Mayor Kiel at last night's conference. Cc. E. Smith, consulting engineer for the city, explained at last night's con- ference that all the taxes and licenses paid to the city by the United Railways Co. represented 3.68 per cent on the com- pany’s gross revenues. This did not in- clude the city’s share of the general taxes. Mayor Kiel suggested that the new tax on the gross revenues be 4 per cent, but this was received with protests by the company's representatives. Mayor Kiel then proposed to make the rate 3% per cent, and afterwards 3%, but these figures also were opposed by the com- pany’s officials. They announced that they were willing to accept 2% per cent. Mayor Kiel and Aldermen Schrantz, Berat and Tamme and Comptrolier Nolte finally insisted that 3 per cent was the least the city would make the rate. $455,000 Guarantee Demanded. At the beginning of the conference Mayor Kiel announced the city would insist that there be written into the partnership ordinance a provision guar- anteeing the city $485,000 a year in rev- enues, But no agreement was reached on this point. All of the company’s rep- resentatives flatly declared they would not concur in any such provision. Mayor Kiel] then said that a second plan should be devised and submitted, with the city’s original proposal, to the Board of Aldermen. “Put it up to the Aldermen: that's where the responsibility belongs, any- how,” he said.

Before consideration, of amendments began in the Senate, Senator Myers spoke in defense of Herbert C. Hoover, answering attacks made yesterday by Senator Reed. The Montana Senator praised the food administrator for his Belgian relief work and his ability as a business man. “Mr. Hoover has been advising the country against waste and for that he has been assailed as comm'tting a mon- strous crime,’’ said Senator Myers. ‘‘He has been giving advice in piain, homely language. Is he to be derided and held up to scorn for it? “If we don’t adopt some legislation of this kind we will be the only nation at war without it.” “Mr. Hoover has been held up to ridicule, scorn and contempt for weeks by a master of investice, and I cannot see what cause there is for it.

ROM February, 1915, until the pres- ~ ent time the allied navies have been busy hunting for a method defending merchant shirping from submarine. They solved the problem of defending ships of war within a very few months after hotsilities began. There were some expensive lessons nec- essary before the trick was learned, but substantially the modern warships of the world have in three years suffered very little from submarine attack. We have not been less successful in protecting transports. At the present moment we have expeditionary forces fighting in East Africa, Saloniki, Egypt and France. In the Mediterranean, in the Channel and through the Bay of Biscay there is a continuous traffic of fresh regiments and drafts going out. and of wounded, convalescent and tired men coming home. This traffic is ina zone made dangerous by has been subject to attack from the firs: day of war, and its casualties have been singularly small, as at least between 7,000,000 and 8,000,000 British, Irish, Aus- tralian, Canadian, Indian, French and Italian troops have been shipped to and fro across the sea. Hardly more than one one-thousandth of 1 per cent has been lost. Not one one-hundredth of 1 per cent has been @tacked. of the Case of Merchant Shipping. But in the case of merchant shipping the thing is altogether different. Why is the contrast between the case of war vessels and transports and that of mer- chant shipping so great? The answer is twofold. In the first place, the bulk of warships and transports possess a speed of 16 knots and over, and speed is the best of all forms of protection against the underwater boat. Next, it has been first care, and rightly, not only to the transports—the warships, of course, are armed already—but as far as possible to convoy them on their journeys afid to confine them to routes which apart from convoys are well pa- trolled. It is because the allies’ sea supplies cannot be so easily limited as to route, nor be either so completely armed, or #0 generally protected by convoys, that they suffer so much more heavily, and we must recognize at once that it is simply not practicable to apply these principles of protection to merchant shipping as thoroughly and completely as they are applied to the others. There is not a sufficiency of suitable guns, nor of trained crews to man them, for every merchant ship to be armed as it should be armed. There are not patrolling ves- sels enough to guard all possible sea routes, and so far we have béen unequal to the task of compelling all merchant shipping to confine itself to a few nar- row marked lanes. Then there is the standing diffi- culty that a very great number of merchant skippers are not such exact navigators as to make Keeping’ to a narrow lane a simple business for them, and the principle of defined lanes could not be made to apply to neutrals, for it would not be safe to give them the information that can be given to belligerent ships. Sufficient Protection Impossible. And, finally, with merchant ship- ping so scattered, the allied nations do not possess and cannot produce our arm the number of patroling vessels or of | could make the ship- Of course, if all shipping Great Britain, for in- stance, could be made to use one port alone the thing would be simple, but there is no port in Great Britain that could handle all the cargoes, even in the matter of loading and unloading ships, and if any one port could do it the railway service could not dis- tribute the goods that arrive or col- lect the things that have be sent away.

QUIT, FOLLOWING UKRAINE DISPUT Russian Council Convoked in Special Session in Effort to Avert a Crisis. ASKED TO RECONSIDER Stray Shots Cause Demonstrators to Fire Upon Each Other. ETROGRAD, Juiy 17.—Three mem- vers of the Cabinet have resigned and a special sessiun of the Council of Min- isters has baen convoked in an effort to avert a a definite policy regard- ing the Ukraine. Tereschtenko and Tseretelli, the ca- dets maintained, simply had been chosen delegates to find a possible basis of an agreement in the Ukraine. but had not been given the power of making a declaration in the name of the Government. The ministers de- clared that upon receipt of fragmen.- Ukraine; second, because it did not tary information from the envoys of the ministry, Tereschtenko and Tsere.- telli, they specially warngd the latter at the beginning of the Ukraine con- ference at Kiev that they must re- turn to Petrograd to confirm the temporary Government so that a de- cision might be taken after mature deliberations by all the members of the ministry. Find Fault With the Text. In addition to thig cause of com- plaint the cadet ministers criticised the text of the Ukraine declaration, first because it abolishes all power of the temporary Government in the Ukraine; second, because it did not specify of what territories tne Ukraine consists or make clear how it shall be governed. The opposition rmmembers of the Cabinet assert that only the legisla- tive body has a right to determine the future form of Government of the Ukraine, whereas, according to the declaration of Tereschtenko and Tseretelli, the Ukranians appear to be proceeding informally to draw up their own government. In view of the objections and further minor faults found by the cadets. they propose the postponement of the publi- eation of the Ukraine declaration until after further conference, stating, more- over, that in any case it would be im- possible to publish the full text of the declaration, since the question of the, Ukraine could only be definitely settied by a constituent assembly and that it would be impossible for the Government to muke a final declaration on the sub- ject. The cadet ministers, however, em- phatica!iy insisted that their adverse po- sition in regard to the declaration. was not to be taken as objection to the prin- ciple of autonomy for the Ukraine, wherewith their party is in full sym- pathy. Their protest, they repeated, was against the methods whereby this dec- laration was drawn up by two members of the Government, acting without au- thority from the Council of Ministers ane against the wording j)which was am- biguous and misleading: Objectors in Minority. Tereschtenko and Tseretelli insisted upon the immediate publication of the deciaration, adding that the form might be altered if the sense were kept intact. When the vote was taken the two Lvoffs in the Cabinet and Socialists declared themselves in favor of the declaration as already drawn, without correction or al- teration. .Opposed by the majority, the cadet members then resigned. Prokopovitch and Charnousky have been appointed Ministers of Commerce and Education, respectively. After taking cognizance of the views of Tereschentko and Treretelli and of * communication from War Minister Kerensky on the subject, the provisiona Sevesnwent decided today on the crea- ston of an executive body to put into execution measures dealing with the ad- “ ministration of Ukraine.

After all, these acts, he concludes, Dr. Von Beth- mann-Holiweg followed the customary course and attempted to unload the entire responsibility on the former Ger- man Ambassador at Washington, Count Von Bernstorff. The Berliner Tageblatt and the Frank- furter Zeitung share the friendly ap- preciation of Dr. Von Bethmann-Holl- weg as expressed in the official article concerning his resignation printed in the North German Gazette. Other news- papers, however, unsparingly criticize the departing Chancellor as having been a weak though good intentioned official, who did excellently in subordinate posts, but was unable to see his own lack of qualification for a position of chief re- sponsibility during a tremendous war. No Parliamentary Ministry. If the German press correctly reflects public opinion on the event, the = ap- pointment of Georg Michaelis as Impe- rial Chancellor will be associated with the death of the movement to parlia- méntarize the imperial admiunistratioi by giving Reichstag members seats either in the Cabinet or in a new con- trolling body to be created, such as the proposed Imperial Council of Represent- atives. The press of Bavaria and other states in the empire was quick to point out that a parliamentary ministry could not be introduced without upsetting the whole federal character of the empire, which finds expression in the supreme Bundesrath. The alternative idea, which Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg actu- ally considered for a time, namely, the institution of an Imperial Council con- sisting of five representatives eath of the Government, the Bundesrath and the Reichstag to serve as a connecting fink between the Government and the representative institutions of the nation, has been dropped, according to the Cath- olic Germania. Didn't Sound Parliament. The Vossische Zeitung, the Tage- blatt and the Vorwaerts directed at- tention to the fact that the appoint- ment of Dr. Michaelis was made with: out previously sounding Parliament and that the new Chancellor accepted the post without consultation with party leaders or an attempt to learn whether his proposed policy was ac- ceptable to the Reichstag, and con- sider this confirmatory evidence that the Reichstag’s desire for formal ac- knowledgment of parliamentary con- trol of the old government was ig- nored. } The Vossisshe Zeitung points out that to establish the principle of par- HNamentary contro! the Reichstag has only to exercise it, and says the re- sponsibility for the present irrespon- sible system rests with the Reich- stag, which lacks the vigor, initiative and unity to impose its will on the appointing officials. This newspaper asserts that with- out this will it is useless te write the parliamentary principle into the Constitution, while, with it, a formal declaration would be unnecessary, as the Reichstag would always be able to displace an unsatisfactory chan- cellor or minister. Ijberal Press View. The liberal! newspapers now as- sume that Dr. Michaelis, in his under- lying political views, is a moderate conservative and cannot have failed in his almost 40 years career in the Prussian bureaucracy to have ab- sorted the prevailing political tenets of that caste. They say that above pall, however, he is a bureaucrat and in which the demonstra- | i ! not a politician by training and that it remains to be seen how he will de- velop in an office requiring one not a bureaucrat. The Vossische Zeitung apparently unintentionally points a finger at this weak spot in the appointment by maintaining that Dr. von Bethmann- Hollwez was not qualified for the post of Chancellor because he was a bureaucrat and not a political leader. Dr. Michaelis already been showered with instructions by news- paper advisers. Vorwaerts declares that is is indispensable to exacta clear separation of the political and mili- tarv fields, confine the military ad- ministration its proper functions and restore to the politiéal adminis- tration its proper dominant role The new Charcellor has responded by calling Field, Marshal von Hin- denburg and Gen.

Michaelis and Religion. A strong strain of religious evdotion, verging on religious cne of the outstanding characteristics of Dr. Michaelis. According to those acquaint- ed with him, the new Chancellor be- lieves in the direct guidance and inspira- tion of the Diety in daily affairs wnd endeavors to base his actions and policy upon his interpretation of the Divine will. Dr. Michaelis’ firmness of purpose ig said to be due largely to this conviction. This view of life is partly hereditary. His brother became a clergyman of the most devout school and his gister mar- ried a clergyman. Newspapers of Evan- gelical trend, like the Taeglische Rund- schau, emphasize this characteristic. ‘as mysticism, ls “Common People” of Berlin Regard Hollweg as Their Champion. AMSTERDAM, July 17.—The events of the past few days have stirred Berlin aS the city has not been stirred since the war began, according to information reaching here. The man in the street took tremendous interest in the greut political battle going on ‘behind the scenes and, although the exact issues between the two great groups of com- batants were veiled from the “common people,’ the latter, nevertheless, quickly rained the impression that Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg, as champion of popular reforms, had entered the lists against the Emperor, the Crown Prince, Field Marshal von Hindenburg and Gen. Ludendorff. It was almost the first time that Von Kethmann-Hollweg had figured in the Berlin streets as a popular hero and, a!l- though his. cause had many friends, | popular opinion regarded his effort as nopeless against the prestige of the royal house, allied with the military imperial- ists, Von Hindenburg and Ludendorff. Von Bethmann-Hollweg’s chief sup- port in his brief effort for democracy seems to have come from Bavaria and Austria, as the report goes here. Hs made two proposals, the first, that, in the direction of democratization, a new body under the name of the Reichsrat should be immediately constituted, which would be a sort of committtee on national defense and would for the time being act as a go-between between the Reichstag and the Emperor, thus insti- tuting on a modified scale the principle uf parliamentary responsibility: the sec- ond, that the Government should imme- diately make an authoritative declara- tion of no annexations or indemnities. Both these proposals, it is asserted, had the backing of Bavaria and Austria, al- though Austria, naturally, had no open veice in the matter, which was purely 4 German internal affair. Both proposals were violently opposed by the Crown Prince, Von Hindenburg and Ludendorff. It is declared that Von Hindenburg came out openly for a ‘‘Ger- man peace,’ and avowed that Bavaria and Austria must be persuaded that a victorious peace was certain in a short time through the agéficy of the U-boats. Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg resigned from his post of Chancellor after hi: conference with the Crown Prince, in which the latter convinced the Chancel- lor that his cause was lost. nitiaenenipdiammenn Von Harnack Says Hollweg Didn't Say “Wer Draw at Best.” ARMSTERDAM, July 17.—Prof. von Harnack has informed the Frankfurter Zeitung that the published version of his letter purporting to reveal the views of the former German Chancellor, Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg, was erroneous. He states that the opinions attributed to the former Chancellor were in reality his own views, and that these were dis- torted.

Besides, some people say the partnership plan will create a Political machine. That means that those who are opposed to the adminis- tration and to your company Will at- tack the plan.’ At this juncture Comptroller Nolte said that if the plan resulted in profits of $200,000 or $300,000 for the company and only $100,000 for the city, he ‘‘would leave town.’ Mayor Kiel repeated his statement that ‘‘we'd be recailed,”’ ard added that he would vote for his own recall in the circumstances indicated by Nolte. Suggestion of Receivership. Attorney Pierce said that if the citv insisted on driving the company into a receivership t would ‘‘be playing into the hands of the bondholders.”’ ‘A receivership would not only de- prive the city of the mill tax, but would stop the issuance of universal trans- fers,’’ Pierce said. Subsequentiy Pierce declared that ihe conMany’s franchises were “good” and that there was no in- tention of letting it go into a receiver- ship. It is Mayor Kiel's plan to introduce both of his proposed schemes in the Board of Aldermen in time to have them referred to committee before adjournment on July 27. It is then proposed that there be public hear- ings during the summer vacation s0 that if one or the other ordinance is accentable to the committee it can be reported immediately on the re- sumption of the aldermanic sessions after Sept. 21. The latest proposition does Mmot contemplate any -supervision by the city over the company’s financial af- fairs except as to the need and cost of extensions. ——— -~@--—-: HORNSBY’S VIEW OF NEW SCHEME Member of Civic League Special Committee Says It Differs Little From Old One.

L. rflornsby. formerly a member of the St. Louis Public Service Commission, and a member of a special! committee of the Civic league, appointed to report on the plans under discussion for a com- promise between the city and the United Railways, today told a Post-Dispatch repurter that he saw little improvement over the original proposition in the new- est one put forward by Mavor Kiel and City Counselor Daues, providing for a share on gross receipts in lieu of all other taxes. “The only material difference,’ he said, “jis that in the new plan the part- nership of the city and the United Rail- wavs is left out.

Regarding the making of extensions, the provision of the new plan is that extensions shall be determined. by a board consisting of one representative of the city and uuwe representative of the company, and if they fail agree a third member is to be appointed by the St. Louis Court of Appeals. That is not satisfactory. We know what it would amount to. The Court very prop- erly might refuse to appoint the third member, as that is not a part of the Court's business. “As to the provision that the city may purehase the property after 10 Years at a valuation of $60,000,000, plus the cost of any extensions made, ! can only say that there is no rea- son for fixing the price at $60,000,000 That is purely anarbitary figure.

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH It’s Because Improved Dodgers May Keep Cards Out of Second Place Brooklyn Club, a Dejected Outfit Early in the Race, Is Now Mak- ing a Strong Bid—Only Meadows’ Great Pitching Gave Victory to Huggins Yesterday. “By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 17.—The contumacious Cardinals, although they got the jump on the Brooklyn Dodgers through their 3-to-1 victory of yesterday, will have a tight tussle of it to slide into second place in the course of their present four-game series. Such are present indications, in spite of the tough- ness of the long despised Cincinnati Reds, now flying at the throat of the wavering Phillies. The Dodgers are playing good ball. Strongest in their pitching, but hitting fairly. well and fielding well, last year’s National League champions are doing Something more. For the first time in a number of years the club is doing some thinking, collective and individual. One's Sanity might have been doubted in other years if one had accused Brooklyn of Playing heady baseball. The new life in the club centers around Jimmy Johnston, who has proven an able successor to Jake Daubert at first, although he is regularly an outfielder. Ivan Olson, Jimmy Hickman, the’ slug- ging fielder, and Mike Mowrey, well remembered in St. Louis for his tem- rament, have done much to ull rooklyn out of the slough into which it fell early in the current campaign It is e Dodger pitching, however, that has ®Snabled the club to take 18 of its last 25 at home games, and six out » of nine in its last two series—against Chicago and Pittsburg. Rube Marquard, on Cadore, Larry Cheney, Sherrod Smith and Jeff Pfeffer®all -have been pitching great ball. Then there is Colby Jack Coombs for relief and headwork, and none can deny Wilbert Robinson’s Value as a pitching coach. . Cadore, the lean youngster, has been twirling with remarkable effectiveness. Now the Cardinals crash into strong pitching—pitching on a plane with that which toppled them four times in se- uence in the recent New York series. he Brooklyn pitching, of course, is sup- ported less powerfully on both offense and defense. But it is pitching of qual- i far above that of the Cardinals, who, as a rule, have been winning, when they win, in spite of the work of their moundmen rather than with their as- Gistance. When Hornsby and Cruise hit and only then—have the Cardinals won on this road trip. And the St. Louis heavy artillery will be put to a steeling test in the next three games at Ebbets Field, barring a complete reversal of form on the part of Robby’s hurlers. Meadows Hurls Fine Game. The Cardinals hit a plenty but not a whole lot in winning yesterday. A virtue aside from the club’s pummeling power and quite rare in Miller Huggins’ sight of late won the day. Excellent pitching beat Brooklyn. Lee Meadows, it was, who turned in a smart game. After a precarious start the Carolinian settled down, in the fourth inning, to an after- moon of toying with Brooklyn batters and only one Dodger reached first base in the last six innings and he—Johnston in the fifth—got on by mode of drawing four balls. Meadows walked two men in the first inning. With two gone in the second. he passed Chief Meyers and was touched for an outfield single by Pfeffer and an infield hit by Olson, which filled the bases. But Lee followed a fast one to Johnston with a slow ball and the Southwesterner fouled out to Doug aird. ' Stengel’s looping triple off the right field wall and Zachariah Wheat’s sacri- fice fly to the same region in the third tied the count temporarily. The Cardi- nals having scored in the first frame on Jack Smith’s solid single, Baird's mar- $a bunt, Long’s infield death and ornsby’s single down the left field foul marker. The Cardinals threatened often. but Pfeffer turned on steam in the inches and a couple of circus plays hind him preserved the tie for a time. Things happened in the eighth. Baird and Long elevated to Wheat and Sten- Today’s Schedule. | a cael NATIONAL LEAGUE. Chicago at New York: clear: 3:30 p. m. Pittsburg at Boston; cloudy; 3:15 p. m.

With nothing to be gained by it, for Cruise had returned to third when Sten- gel threw, Johnston leaped into the air some yarcs in front of the nlete ard succeeded in deflecting the ball past the waiting Meyers inte the vicinity of the St. Louis bench.

With Dave Davenport on the propel- ling peak, with Derrill Pratt all iodined and bandaged up, with George Sisler walking Spanish due to a stone bruise and bearing a thumb still in tape, and with “Tod” Sloan forced to run the bases without the aid of private secretary, the stage seemed set for a brilliant Boston victory. Kut the Browns turned on us and threw us down with a thud by imitating champions, every step of the way—after the first few steps. From the first few minutes of the fra- cas play was abnormal. Bert Shotton went down to the initial sack in high, something he hasn't done for quite a while. Jimmy Austin teased a walk out of the airtight George Foster, and the usually impeccable Mr. Scott, filling the zap at short, foozled one for Tod Sloan, giving him a life. Then, for a moment, it seemed as though the Browns would prove true to last place tradition—in fact for an in- ning they did. George Sisler leaned his ash against the orange and things began to happen. Outfielders hastily converged on the hurling sphere: Brown coaches began to ‘‘attaboy’’ themselves purple in the face, and even the case-hardened paid admission in the upper grandstand almost swallowed his new store teeth in excitement. For at this moment it appeared that a couple of runs and the old ball game were to be put away in cold storage. Hardening of the Top Piece. But the situation changed in appear- ance as rapidly as a cat's tail before a bull pup. Enter one Y. Y. Sloan, who awoke at the crack of Sisler’s bat, sized it up by the sound for an 18-karat triple, tucked his head under his left wing and spiked the unoffendine base paths in “high.” No one opposed him; he whizzed by Barry, carefully touching second; Scott gave him the right of way past short;'and Jimmy Austin, lingering halfway between second and third to see if Till Walker pulled the apple out of the sky, leaped for life out of the course of the flying Sloan. Just at this time Sloan, figuring by dead reckoning that he ought to be somewhere in the latitude and longitude of third base, came up for air in time to hear some of the profoundest language ever encountered outside the dictionary. Part of it was emnanating from the purple-faced George Davis on the coach- ing line and part of it from every other place on the field occupied by a Brown player. Then and only then Sloan awoke to Proof of Accident or Criminal Negligence Sought in Connection With the Running Down of Jimmy Austin in Double Kill- ing Around Second Base Yesterday. By John E. Wray. One would think that for consistency you could at least rely on a tail-end baseball club. But you can’t, wit- ness the case of the Fielder Joneses, who upset the dope yesterday, and the fact that something smelled wrong. He gave the situation the once-over to se> what had died in the interim. It took a couple of umpires. Jimmy Aus- tin and the entire 700 spectators to ex- plain that Sisler had perished by the Til Walker route, while he, Yale Y. Sloan, had been suddenly cut off in his iggy through ossification of the bel- ry. In tnis part of the country it’s fatal to pass the runner ahead of you on the paths—which, in brief, was the offense of Sloan. Davenport at His Best. Thus far the game was perfectly nor- mal and entirely up to last place form. But Dave Davenport began to shatier the old dope painfully. Inning after inning went by and David neither lost his goat, bobbled the bunt nor foogle1 with nis bean. He fielded like Barney Pelty, persona)!y conducting no less than eight of the 27 cuts recorded by the Bos- tonians. Four of these were strikeouts, three were assists to first and one wis actually a putout, earned when he cov- ered first for Sisler’s assist. Dave had his old rifle fire curve work- ing in great style. It was not until the sixth inning that Boston made a hit, ani only one other safety wa» made by the bean towners. It came in the ninth and did no damac?2, Davenport winning a de- served 2—0 victory. ; In the course of his game only seven balis were hit to the outfield and 13 of the outs were infield affairs. Last year Davenport won 10 straight games. His form yestersvay justifies a hope that he may again be at his best —in which case he is a terror to stop. The Browns, after the first innins, surprised fans with an immaculate defense. and by making the most of the scant opportunities yielded to score two runs. The Browns put over the first tally against Foster in the fourth inning, when, with one down, Pratt tripled and crossed the plate on Jacobson’s single. The second came in the sixth when Sis- ler singled, stoie and went to third when no one covered for Thomas’ throw. Sev- ereid’s hit counted the Michigan mar- vel. Team Matches Postponed.

Lee Magee, former Cardinal, Brook- lyn Federal and American League Yankee, arrived in St. Louis last night. He comes to join the Browns in exchange for Armando Marsans, the Cuban outfielder. Magee stated that he is ready for work and is in shape to start right tn, Manager Fielder Jones was asked last night at what positior fie would place Magee. He stated that he was not sure, but thought he might use him at second base. It's a toss up whether he goes to second or left field, and the decision de- pends on whether shotton or Pratt is in greatest need of a rest. Both men are off form. Magee is a live wire and his com- ing has pleased St. Louis fans im- mensely. He is a capable regular, when right and can play infield or outfield equally well. He will add a little Pepper to Jimmy Austin’s ef- forts to liven up the old Brown corpse. Mana@eer Jones stated that Daven- port pitched only two really bad balls during yesterday’s game and en those Hooper and Gardner made hits. “Dave was putting the balls where the hitters didn’t like them.” Fielder said, “and that’s the secret of pitch- ing.

Junior Championships at Forest Hills, L. I. Valesca Satterfield, present interscholastic champion, won the Juaior tennis title yesterday afternoon at Tri secutive sets, the scores of which were 6—2, 8—6 and 6—3. ple A, aefeating Wray Brown in com In the other final, the boys’ event, George Pasmore won from Dale Morton in four seta 4—6, 6—3, 6—2. 7—5. The victors are now eligible to compete » in the national championships which will be held in October at Forest Hills, L. I. Pasmore has announced his intention of going East, but Satterfield is undecided as to his course. In the évent that Sat- terfield does not accept the opportunity to compete, Wray Brown, runner uD, will be sent as the representative of St. Louis. Satterfield was expected to win his match with Brown, but that he should win so easily and, as it seemed, without effort was a complete surprise. From the time Satterfield sent the first ball hurtling into Brown's court, until ne crashed one past the midget for the de- ciding point, it was evident that Brown would meet defeat. Satterfield's service was perfect. Invariably he sent the first ball into fair territory, with the excep- tion of a few games in the second set, lost control. At one time he committed five consecutive faults. It did not unnerve him, how- ever, as he placed his serve just 4s swiftly thereafter as he had at any pre- vious time. Satterfield came up to the net at every opportunity and most of his points were scored by playing an offensive game at the net. The victor’s play yesterday dif- fered considerably from his usual game. He chose to y a purely mechanical game and ther@ was little or no clever- ness exhibited during the match by either of the contestants. Satterfield eliminated Pasmore in the opening round of the junior tournament, which gives him the championship of both divisions. Endurance Wins for Pasmore. Pasmore’s supertor stamina won the boys’ title for him. Until his brilliant place shots wore Morton out, the Sol- dan boy was losing. The first set went to Morton, 6—4, after Pasmore had staged a spirited rally with the score tion championship of the city tourna- ment, defeating C. Perry in three ef four sets. The next year he, with Rav Schuessler, won the doubles title of Fairground Park, defeating Minnegerode and Heuverman in a five-set final match, In 1915 he was runner-up in the cos. solations of the cent.al States tourney, losing out to Fred Josties after having won the first two sets of a five-set match. He reached the fourth round in both the singles and the doubles in the recent central states event. He, with Maffit Minnegerode, was eliminated from the doubles by Drewes and Josties. G. H. Copeland defeated him in the singles. He has played two years in the Interscholastic League as & mem- ber of the two-time champion Yeatman High team. The first year he was sec- ond singles man, while during the last year he was the leader of the team, be- ing first singles man. He has played eight high school matches, winning seven. In two years he has lost but two sets and _n the last year he did not lose one. He is 17 years old. His opponent, Wry Brown, wag run- ner-up in the junior tourney last year, losing out to Thursby. He was 6 mem- ber of the McKinley High tennis team last year, losing but one match in four. George Pasmore won the championship of Soldan High last spring, his first term in school, defeating Gordon Fen- nell, former champiom in a five-set match. He also won the championship of the Westport Country Club of New Jersey, on two occasions, receiving & medal both times. Pasmore is 15 years of age, being rather tall for his age The victors will receive medals and the winners of the intersectiona]l com- petition in the East will receive cups, The DrewesObear match was not pleted yesterday afternoon.

By Robert Edgren (Copyright, 1917, by Press Pub. Co.) NEW YORK, July 17.—Francis Oulmet performed a remarkable feat in coming back to golf after his long layoff and capturing the first championship he has competed for since the East barred him from amateur play. He had much at stake. He must have longed for the victory that would in a way be tion. And he has captured the only championship played for this year in America. Ouimet is a good enough amateur for the West. He should be a good enou amateur for anyone, East or West. consistently refusing all offers to make money by playing golf and all invitations to play as a profesional he shown that he has the real amateur spirit. With that, what difference does it make that he is engaged in of selling golf and other athletic sup- plies? ndoubtedly playing golf has Oulmet a lot of money, by time that he might have otherwise de voted to business. If Ouimet is a professional golfer be- cause he sells golf supplies, then the man who makes the supplies and sells them to him is a sroteational Then the man Who furnishes the material to make the golf supplies from is a professional golfer. The agent of a plantation in Bra- zil that furnishes the rubber to make the golf balis from and sold it for money is a professional golfer. And, to go @ little further, the benighted native who taps the trees and os the rubber juice in his little pall is a professional golfer, even though he never saw @ mashie or a niblick.

JOSEPH PULITZER. _ April 10, 1907. Pee ——7 » re LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE That Street Car Compromise. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The United Railways Co. has a franchise worth millions of dollars alone, and they know it. Now if the city of St. Louis enters into a partnership with this company, the U. R. Co. would practically acquire a new franchise for 60 years, or possibly forever! Who knows? Partnership between the city and the United Railways holds possibilities of the wrecking of good government in St. Louis. The interests of the corporation may overwhelm the interests of the city. Mayor Kiel and Mr. Aloe are wise in not making haste in this all-important matter. The city, by approving the proposed ordinance, would enter into contractural relations with the United Railways Co., forever relinquishing its right to impose and collect an occupation tax from this corporation and as the laws of Missouri require that stockholders of cor- porations shall have the sole power to elect directors, the officers of the railway com- pany could not legislate away the right of the stockholders to exercise this power. Therefore the proposition that the city board of directors of the company is un- constitutional. GEORGE A. RITTER. Economy of Direct Buying. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Anent the high cost of living, I read the article by J. Ogden Armour in which he Bays the meat packers have distribution down fine, Now, maybe in the suburbs they may, but if city people could (as they used 60) go to the packing houses for their sup- plies they could save a great deal. JOHN MITCHELL The Policeman’s Answer. To the Editer of the Post-Dispatch. Permit me t oOsay a word atout the po- lice efficiency of our cit¥. Some days ago two or three boys were to our place and Stole some property. We caught them with the goods, and we called a policeman ani asked him to recover our property. He seemed to be too busy to do his duty. and ®ave us this answer: “Why dort you go and get it yourself? You would better go home and avoid making any trouble.” Is that, in your opinion, a good way of protect- ing the people and their property” FRANK CASTELL 4060 St. Ferdinand avenue. Vending Machines on Cars. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. By what authority is the United Railways Co. putting gum vending machines on their cars? If they can vend gum, why not ci- gars, shoestrings, umbrellas and other mer- chandise? The city authorities should stop this commercial element which is un- authorized by their franchise. KRONIK KICKER. THE D CE. From the New York World. Two men spoke from the Democratic side} of the Senate Chamber on Yaturday in a way to attract attention. The first was Mr. Stone of Missouri, who persistently before we entered the war was sympathetic with Germany. “Now that we are in the war,” he said, “the only thing is to smash the Kaiser and his Government,” —‘“but we wouldn't be in this position if our own Government had acted wisely; we can make peace now any day.” . The second was John Sharp Williams of Mississippi who also wanted to “smash the Kaiser” without and “buts” or “ifs.” In- stead of the “buts” and “ifs” he said: “The President traveled the whole gamut, up and down. He allowed this nation to suffer humiliation after humiliation, shame piled upon shame—grazed the very edge of cowardice because his heart beat in unison with the cause of a just and last- ing peace.” There is all the difference between these two Senators on this issue of the war that there is between two parties in Congress, known neither as Democrat or Republican, in relation to war legislation. The good Mississippi Senator spoke with his face to the front and his thought to the front, and he is so acting on the food control and all other vital war measures. The Missouri Senator spoke with his face to the front, but with his thought and his spirit barking rearward, and is so disposed to act on the food control bill, which he virtually calle a measure of Kaiserdom. There are a number of men in Congress like the Missouri Senator. They are iden- tifying themselves from day to day by their obstructive courses on all measures calcu- lated for a vigorous and effective prosecu- tion of the war. The Socialist Idea. From the Philadelphia Press. The Socialists refuse to have anything to @o with the war, but they are expecting to take the job of running all the Governments ef the. world when somebody else hag wap ; ) ‘country than to belabor it. DANGERS IN THE U. R. DEAL. | Mayor Kiel has wisely decided that he will not attempt to jam through the deal between the city and the United Railways. He has four years to serve yet, he says, and realizes that “my wings will be clipped” in the event of a bad bargain. He shows a much more accurate perception of actual conditions than when he was prepared to railroad the ordinance. Many things indicate not only that the agree- ment does not command public approval, but on the contrary is looked upon with a growing dis- satisfaction and suspicion. One of them is the report of the Civic League's special committee. This excellent committee, made up of men of unusual experience, ability and judgment, elabo- rates with further emphasis a number of points already presented by the Post-Dispatch. It shows: That the dual control of a utility by city and corporation is unsound and can lead only to disaster. That with a minority representation on the board the city will be Relpiess to enforce tts desires and at the same time will be held to an accountadility for the utility's policies. That the union can only give deplorable re- sults in politics of the worser sort. That the city’s right of taration sustained after years of litigation is bartered away, that what is called a franchise extension plan is really a new franchise-grabbing plot, that the city surrenders definite privileges and pre- rogatives giving it the mastery of the: situa- tion and receives in return only doubtful privileges and prerogatives and a restricted and questionable control. The committee is correct in saying that as com- pared with features jeopardizing political honesty and morality in the future the capitalization, while of course excessive, is a minor considera- tion. But it may be said that, so far as the practical success of the plan and the removal of the cause of past complaint are concerned, the capitaliza- tion is a highly important feature. Is there no moral quality in validating fictitious ‘values, in holding up as a plan for squeezing out water what is really a plan for valorizing water? .With the city and the company both engaged in squeezing profits out of and in managing the property for mutual benefits what chance will there be for good wages, better service and neces- sary improvements? ¢+-9—____- -—__—_ PROUD OF A ‘‘PULL.’’ Nat Goldstein, Circuit Clerk, and member of the Republican Central Committee, says he is proud of the card he wrote to Judge Sanders of City Court No. 2, asking the Judge to take ‘‘care of San Bernstein’ who was on the court docket charged with disturbing the peace. Is Mr. Goldstein proud of his attempt to use his “pull” on a city Judge or has it proved so effective in the ‘“‘many times” he has interceded for friends in court that his bosom swells. In politics a ‘‘pull,”’ especially in the courts, is worth something, we admit, but glorying in the ex- posure of its use is a novel phase of political in- sensibility to propriety and public opinion. Trying to put justice ‘“‘on the bum’’ has never been considered by the most callous bosses as a thing to boast of. +o ——____ --— CASH AND FLASH. Let no one be so captious as to quarrel] with those extravagant American “common sailors”’ who paid $120 in a Paris hotel for a dinner for six and afterwards scattered $80 more in tips. Being sons of wealthy men doubtless they could afford it. At the worst it was the kind of lark to be ex- pected of a lot of boys fresh from college. A doorkeeper, it seems, had hesitated to admit them to the cafe when he noticed their uniform. That doorkeeper probably will never feel the same way about an American uniform again. Maybe that is one of the reasons why the boys unbuttoned so liberally when they did get in. Besides, it is the solemn duty of every good American to be a good spender when he goes abroad. Europe expects it of us. We have edu- cated her up to the idea. She has discovered that nothing but the best is good enough for an American, whether he can afford it or not. She takes our money joyously, and at times doubtless chuckles in low cunning when she tots up the bill. Nevertheless she is always at the service of Messieurs, the Americans. The “common sailors”. have at least convinced the Parisians that while some Americans are slow on conservation and at times. lack taste, they are long on cash and flash. Perhaps Emma Gol@man will find, after two years of overall sewing at the Jefferson City Penitentiary, that it is better to labor for the a Ap Lp ——_ = 60,000 FRESHET-SWEPT ACRES Several points of more than usual! interest are found in the State crop report for July. Of the 1,800,000 acres of wheat land in Missouri, about 410,000 acres emerged from the winter in such unpromising condition that it was abandoned. Later the high water in the streams of the State caused the abandonment of the wheat on 50,000 acres more. At the average of about 13 bushels to the acre predicted for the crop throughout the State,-these 50,000 acres of freshet-swept land would have produced in excess of 600,000 bushels of wheat. But the probability is that the average would have been more than 13 bushels to the acre. These bottom lands are among the most fertile and pro- ductive areas of Missouri and the West. In one smiling little valley observers estimated one night that the 800 acres on which the wheat stood knee- high would yield 20 bushels to the acre, 16,000 bushels in all, worth at the then current price of $3 a bushel $50,000. Of this $50,000 worth of grain nothing remained at the same hour the next night. Unfavorable winter conditions, which in this year of need have reduced the possible crop by nearly 3,000,000 bushels, are beyond human con- trol. But the river freshets are subject to re- straint. The serious effects-in this present sea- son of a crop reduction due to preventable causes should direct renewed attention to a problem that has pressed for solution during many seasons. —_—_—-— The scenes of present and approaching harvest splendor in St. Louis County are repeated in most of the other counties of the State. Missouri will yield 18,000,000 bushels of wheat. The index num- ber for corn is 88, against an average of 80 for 10 years. A great acreage devoted to other crops will produce enormously. The Federal statisti- cians predict more than 6,000,000,000 bushels of food crops in the entire country. All will be needed. @Queweeess a = = SS SENATOR REED’S BUFFOONERY. Senator Reed is now engaged in ridiculing Mr. Hoover and his efforts to conserve war food sup- plies. Ridicule is cheap. It is usually the resort of the special pleader who realizes that he has no case in right or reason. When a Senator applies it to a vital question which affects the outcome of a great war in which everything is at stake he forfeits public respect. He thrusts aside. his own dignity, sincerity and duty and becomes contemptible. He plays the buffoon in the arena where national life and death are in the balance. = = — — After acting as*shock-absorber for the House of Hohenzollern for 10 years or more, Von Beth- mann-Hollweg appears to have reached the point where the shocks are coming too strong and fast for assimilation. ». = = i i NO NORTH, NO SOUTH—AMERICANS. The Southern states are soon to be invaded again by the greatest force of United States sol- diers they have seen since the middle sixties. Their own sons are rising in arms, this time not to resist the invaders but to join them in the training camps. The only rivalry there will be between Northern and Southern commands will be a fraternal struggle to see which can fit them- selves best and quickest to uphold their common cause. The very nomenclature of the posts is signifi- cant of a united patriotism which is glad to for- get old quarrels and hide old scars. There are Camp Lee and Camp Grant; Camp Beauregard and Camp McClellan; Camp Gordon and Camp Sherman; Camp Logan and Camp Wheeler. Missouri and Kansas boys whose fathers fought each other and hated each other with a hatred that passes understanding, will fraternize in Oklahoma’ at Camp Doniphan, named for that illustrious soldier who, in the Mexican war, led from Missouri an expedition whose line of march was to surpass in distance the historically famous one over which Cyrus led his 10,000 Greeks. North and South got together pretty well in the little brush we had with Spain. But for the permanent soldering of damaged American rela- tionships, the handicraft of Butcher Weyler was as nothing compared to that of the German Kaiser. \ —_—____+-—__-¢¢¢—____—_—__—- Mexico is said to be in a better condition, po- litically and industrially, than it has been for a decade, a tribute to the wise, patient policy of President Wilson as to our Southern neighbor. = = " ~~ re ZIMMERMANN INCIDENT’S CLOSE. The practical usefulness of Dr. Alfred Zimmer- man as German Foreign Minister ended with the issue of his celebrated ukase granting permission to Carranza to invade Texas, New Mexico and Arizona and take permanent possession of those states if he could capture them. At the very time preparations were being made to kick him out of office Mexico was indicating her desire to fight with the United States and against Germany. And if Mexico does got become an ally of the United States rather than of Germany, it will be because the United States, in view of possible embarrassments after the war, does not want her. With this fact and the fact of Zimmerman’s fall recorded, a remarkable incident in modern diplomacy, one with a grotesque quality that caused even disinterested chancellories to smile, is definitely closed. (OOo —----— — -- WAR POWERS OF CONGRESS. From the Congressional Record. Mr. Knox: It seems to me, Mr. President, to be perfectly clear—and I make this statement with’ diffidence, although I have given considerable thought to the matter since it was first mooted here—that the Constitution must always be con- strued in such a manner as to give effect to all of its powers. The war power in the Constitution stands upon the same authority as the other pow- ers in the Constitution, and it a sound and well- recognized rule of construction of any instrument that, if possible, it must be construed so as to give meaning to all of its parts. When the fathers said in the Constitution that Congress should have the right to declare war, and that it alone should have the power, they did not undertake to define what war is, or what constitutes war. They dealt with a status that was well known; and when the Constitution con- ferred upon Congress the right to declare war, it by necessary implication conferred upon Con- gress the right to do anything that in its judg- ment was necessary to carry that war so a suc- cessful conclusion. The war powers of the Constitution, in my opinion, are dormant until a status of war is de- clared by Congress; and then they may be exer- cised without limitation or qualification to the extent that the safety of the Nation demands. Of this, Congress is the judge, except as the Com- mander in Chief of the Army and Navy, in the actual conduct of the war, and in a case of great emergency or dire necessity may be compelled to act. By this construction of the Constitution, Mr. President, the Constitution itself is preserved in its entirety: Indeed, the exercise of the war power is the only way in which the Constitution can be preserved. Madison said, and I quote from Paper 41 in Lodge's Edition of the Federalist: “If a Federal Constitution could chain the am- bition or set bounds to the exertions of all other nations, then indeed might it prudently chain the discretion of its own Government and set bounds to the exert ions for its own safety.” Rut, as Madison said: “It is in vain to oppose constitutional! barriers to the impulse of self-preservation. It is worse than in vain, because it plants in the Constitution itself necessary usurpations of power, every prece- dent of which is a germ of Unnecessary and mul- tiplied repetitions.” Or. stated in simpler language, !f you under- take to impose in the Constitution limitations on the power of self-preservation, the very fact .hat those limitations exist causes them to be set aside and creates a precedent for violations of the Con- stitution. Those, Mr. President, are the views that I en- tertain, and they constitute the lamp by vane | | Other things in the report are most gratifying. | my feet shal] be guided in all war legislation. | RESOLUTION, NOT REVOLUTION. ewe THE WAR ON CATS. HERE are many regrets as to the Kaiser’s war with pretty much everyone else, probably some upon the part of the Kaiser himself. A regret of which we are reminded is that there is so complete an eclipse of the war on cats. Cats, after kings, are among the goingest things on earth. There are two rising indictments against cats, first that they spread disease among children; and second that they drive birds out of one’s neighborhood. On last Sun- day I witnessed a tragedy of the latter kind in my own neighborhood. There we have many birds—the wood thrush, considered by many of our bird people to have the most beautiful note of all our wild crea- tures; the robin,’ which first apprises us of Spring; the Baltimore oriole, which delights us with its song as well as to thrill us with the flash of its plumage among the dark leaves; the flicker, which casts about him drolly for food on the lawn; the bluebird, which is a most lovable neighborhood companion; the thrasher, which sings ecstatically from the tree tops at twilight; and so on prettily and musically, until the whole neighborhood fairly rings at dawn. Well, on Sunday a cat pounced on one of the little robins and bore it away, while the old birds shrieked frantically and flew about the beast of prey, vainly crying for help. So it did me good to read yesterday in a New York paper of the big cat hunt conducted in that city one day last week by the Bowling Green Neighborhood Association. A bounty was offered for cats’ heads. Patrick Enright, a boy, proved the champion cat catcher. He bagged fifteen. It seems from the report that Patrick knew the cats in the neighborhood pretty much, and was into them before the other competitors got them located. Michael Murray, another boy, got ten; ‘‘Nemo’’ Hutnit seven, and ‘‘Bud Cherosiri’’ two. The hunting grounds extended from Vesey street to the Battery, and from Broadway to the North River. In all seventy-five cats were accOunted for, for which the association paid 5 cents each. Some of the hunters carried bags, and others boxes. The crusade Was made on the advice of doctors for the welfare of babies in that populous district. As soon as the boys get more cats located, there will be another attack. Some of the smaller cities of the East, especially those trying to make themselves attractive to birds, are trying to rid themselves of cats by putting a . standing price on the head of this hardy pest. Per- going to do about liquor, we can have a national crusade against cats. A big country like this must be at something. ee MY SOUTH.

OON after the sign column was established the sy discovery was made that sign hunters were not new. They were only unknown. Several of them came forward with their collections, some of which represented the labor of years. There is in Omaha a lady who collects odd epitaphs. These, of course, have also been hunted before, and there are even books of odd epitaphs. However, we doubt if American epitaphs have quite had justice. The fol- lowing are sOme of those in the Omaha collection: In a Tennessee cemetery this was found: Here lies my twins, as dead as nits; One died of fever, the other of fits. Still another one from Tennessee relates the un- timely taking off of a farmer who Imd an unsuccess- ful encounter with a kicking colt. It reads: Sacred to the memory of Henry Harris, who died from the kick of a colt. Peaceable and quiet, a friend to his father and mother, re- spected by all who knew him—gone to a world where horses never kick and where sorrow and weeping are no more, An Ithaca (N. Y¥.) cemetery revealed this one: Tabitha, wife of Mosses Fledger, aged 55. We shall miss_thee, mother. (Job printing neatly done.) In a Wyoming County (N. Y.) graveyard the un- certainty of life is vouchsafed in the following: She was in health at 11:30 a. m. and left for heaven at 3:30 p. m. Skaneateles, N. Y., supplied Mrs. Sumney with an example of poetic license in things mortuary. This inscription reads: Underneath this pile of stones Lies all that’s left of Sally Jones, Her name was Lord, it was not Jones. But Jones was used to rhyme with stones. In Wayland, Mass., there was found a strange tribute to a man who took no interest in civic affairs. The epitaph declares: : Here lies the body of Dr. Hayward, a man who never voted. Of such is the kingdom of heaven. A trip through Vermont was especially prolific in the odd epitaphs added to the Omaha collection. In Burlington this one was found: She lived with her husband 50 years and died with the confident hope of a better life. Grafton, Vt., supplied an unusual combination of the literal and the poetic, thus: He got a fishbone in his throat And then he sang the angel note. From a Scottish kirk is an unusual epitaph added to the collection by exchange with an English col- lector. The announcement proclaims: John Carnagie lies here, Descended from Adam and Eve: If any can boast of a pedigree higher He will willingly give them leave. ee | Some joker who reads the sign column evidently tampered with this baker's sign: “ee @ee eee ee ee eeeee rote r eons Uncalled for Shoes for Sale : eeeeeeeoeee ee eee eee ee eeee eee eeerereoe eee eee eaeaeee ’ CLEA SING.

Brown stains from nitric acid are permanent Grease: From linen, strong soapsucs; cot- ton, lukewarm soapsuds: woolen, soapsuds with ammonia. (Liquid ammonia is useful for neutralizing the effects of actis, such as fresh fruit stains, lemon and orange, red wines and red ink; and sometimes, in the case of woolen goods, it will restore the color faded by perspiration, especially on browns. A good thing to use with ammonia is warm. soapsuds made with pure white soap. Do not be afraid of using plenty of ammonia. With it you can remove the dif- ferent spots, when fresh, from cotton, wool- en and silk materials by rubbing carefully.) HOUSEROLD HELPS.

M.—Select well-developed heads and remove all loose outside leaves. Split the cabbage, remove the hard, woody core, Slice the remainder of the head with a kraut cutter or slicer, and dry. Shred or cut into strips a’ few inches long. Blanch 10 minutes, drain, remove surface moisture, and dry three hours at 110 degrees to 145 degrees F. In large factories the vege- tables are put through special shredders and slicers not adapted for home use, but convenient and inexpensive machines which can be used to great advantage are on the market. The meat grinder with its special disks can be used in certain cases; the common kraut slicer will cut large vege- tables into thin slices, such as potatoes and cabbage; and the rotary hand slicer is adapted for use on a very wide range of material. Large sharp knife may be used when handier cutting device is not avail- able. Care should be taken that material is sliced thin enough but not too thin. a fair thickness for most of the common vegetables to be sliced and dried. Veéery small slices or strips dry more quickly be- cause they expose a greater surface to the air than do larger cut pieces. But if cut too fine they are more difficult to handle in drying, appear to lose somewhat in flavor, and can not be used so advantage- cusly to make dishes like those prepared from the fresh foods. Drying fruits and vegetables in the sun its a simple process if they have been prepared properly. in its simplest form such drying consists in spreading freshly prepared slices or pieces on sheets of paper, or, if there is danger of products sticking, spreading on old pieces of muslin held down with stones. Bright hot eunny days are chosen for this work, and a close watch is kept to see that no rain or dew wets the product. If flies and other insects are abundant, a mosquito bar is thrown over the product. Once or twice a day the slices are stirred or turned over with the hand and the thin ones which dry first are taken out. Sun drying has much to recommend it, since it requires no expenditure of fuel and there is little danger of the product becoming overheated. Dust, however, gathers on the product, and, unless it is protected care- fully, flies and especially certain insects which habitually attack dried fruits will lay their eggs upon it. These eggs later will hatch out and the worms, or larvae, will riddle the dried fruits or vegetables, rendering them unfit for the table, WAR TALK. MRS.

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH TUESDAY EVE! NING, JULY 17, 1917. ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH ee The Post-Dispatch Daily Short Story Nor Good Red Herring By Margaret Busbee Shipp. PART II. “You low-down cuss! You white-livered sneak!’ he began in a dangerous, low voice, “You yaller houn’ pup! You crawlin’ rattlesnake: As the revenue officer went on with his work, destroying fermenters and nicking the still full of holes as me- thodically as a clerk in a dry goods store measures out calico, Dix’s rage passed all bounds. For 10 minutes he cussed Bumpass with all the vigor and Versatility he could command. One had to know the old man to realize how “various and sundry’’ a _ process he could make it Finding no kegs or Shreave decided that the dwelling. The walked in front, and leaden-hearted, leaden-footed Bumpass followed them through the very back porch where he and Sally had pulled candy a few nights before. “Come downstairs; Sally,’ bellowed her father. “Come ana take a squint at this fine beau of your'’n! Comes ‘rourd hyar pretendin’ he’s sparkin’ while he’s after spvin’ on me and tryin’ to jail me and the boys. Hurry up!’ Late hours evidently prevailed in that household, for- when Sally hastened downstairs she had made no further progress toward undressing than to braid her thick locks into two plaits. Behind her came her two sisters and her cowering little mother. Mrs. Dix’s hair was thin and white, her mild blue eyes pink rimmed, her mouth quivering and her voice quavering. She had the appearance of a terrified white rabbit Belle, the eldest sister, let fail upon poor Bumpass a torrent of abuse rival- ing her father’s outburst, save that it jacked his liberal peppering of oaths. To Sally's dumb, stricken horror, the younger girl's childish interest in the scene presented an odd contrast. She geenied to regard it as a novel oppor- tunity for coquetry, as she cast side glances at the Deputy Marshal. By far the prettiest of the three, the fact was accentuated by the becomingness of the beflowered kimono she had slipped or over her night gown. “So you told on Belle. ‘‘And, Sally, for you told Bud and Charlie he was the only one of the boys who hung around here that didn’t know about the still. You said he just came for you, and not for drinks. So you see he’s fooled you'”’ “Yes, I see,’’ heavily. ‘‘Yes, | see!’’ “No, you don’t,’’ cried poor Bumpass, his wretchedness becoming unbearable at the girl's glazed look. ‘Sally, when I allowed to come on this raid, thinkin’ to make a bit extry to buy you a par- asol, 1 swear 1 ain’t had no more idea we'd end up at your pa’s than at my own grandmother's grave in Old Zion burying groun’. 1 swear it, Sally honey!’’ “Then who told?” shrieked ‘Belle. Sally only shock her head, and echoed: “Who?” If a white rabbit, with the hounds in full cry on her trail, and secure in her refuge in a hollow log, had deliber- ately emerged into the open to face the pack it’ would have taken no less courage, and would have seemed no more contrary to nature than what fol- lowed. Mrs. Dix rose from the step where she had crouched. As if to gain strength, the tiny, timid woman put out a hand blindly, and touched her youngest girl. “I tole'’’ she said Her husband stared at her, not com- prehending the woman to whom he had been married for more than half a lifetime. r “You! Ma, you're gone Hie used the kindly, tone he had always used to her. “Yes, I did. I writ the letter, and tole ‘em about the still and jus’ how to find it. They never could have done it if T hadn't.” A certain contradictory pride in her husband's device asserted itseif in the words. ‘‘I've stood that still as long as I'm goin’ to. It’s ruinin’' Bud and Charlie, and teachin’ ‘em to drink— and it shan't ruin no mo’ of the chilluns. And there's always a crowd of loafers here. It ain't hurt Belle, ‘cause she’s got her pa's temper, and they're scared of her; and it ain't hurt Sally, ’cause she always was sech a good chile: but it will hurt Posie. I caught that Jim (green kissin’ her the other day—he's half drunk mos’ of the time— and Posie didn't mind it like she she's so used to seein’ men-folks always that day I! writ jugs at the still he must search handcuffed men dad,” vociferated ne fooled you good, said Sally distinctly and crazy!” half-contemptuous had orter, careless, hangin’ roun’. And the revenoos, for I warn't goin’ to let Posie be hurt!” In all her life, this quiet little white rabbit had never made so long a speech. The wonder of her courage struck them aljl—loud-mouthed Belle, pretty, Silly Po- sie, and pale-faced, shaken Sally. "*W ell—I—will—he—derned'”’ 3 At the solemn amazement in old man Dix's voice, Belle burst into hysterical laughter. “Mrs. Dix,” said Shreave, “‘] appreci- ate your assistance to the Government. When the case comes up for trial, I shall personally ask the Judge to re- member your services and to Rive the prisoners the minimum sentence. He will probably allow them to pay a small fine and costs, with remittance of im- prisonment. I respect -you, madam. Miss Sally, you must permit me to Say that Mr. Bumpass made his agreement te go with us without any knowledge of your father’s connection in the mat- ter. Just as I had no knowledge of his interest in you. He had kept his prom- # under great difficulties, and he is a man you can trust." Sally plucked silently at her skirt. “I won't do so any more, mammy, if - makes you take on so,” sobbed Po- ~ie “I don’t care so much about it as nil that.” Then Bumpass took his fate into his own hands. “Don't ery, Posie. Mra. Mix, don't you worry. Sally and 1 are goin’ to be mar- ried next month, and we'll take Posie to live with us a spell, We'll look after her all right—won't we.

It must be very hard for you to be cha'ned up: I would rather be chained in the daytime, I think, than at night.” “What would advise me to do” asked Mr. bog, tugging at his chain. “TT would go into the woods tomorrow when you unchained and slip off that eollar. and then 1 would bury i! said Mr. Fox: “the earth is very soft near the hig rock by tne feotpath, and that,’ said Mr. like to be free advise me thought ol indeed would you you Fox vou vou are i that: then | Mr. lkox, if you said Mr. Dog did you, -Mr, do vou, “| believe | will be free to chase come near our chickens,”’ “You didn't think of that, ox?” no use to come here the poultry house is said Mr. Fox. ‘Tl get in there: it will be of anyway, you know far above my reach," wonder that Mr. Man can or the hens either.’’ “Oh! that is easy for them,’ said Mr. Dog. “The master puts a plank up t»% the door of the house, and the chickens run up and he walks up, so that is easy, you see.” “Oh! yes, that is easy for them, ov! course,’ answered Mr. Fox. ‘‘Well, night. I must look elsewhere for m. breakfast Hope get rid of that collar, Mr. Dog.’ The next day Mr. Fox hid behind some bushes near the big and waited for Mr. Dog. Pretty soon Mr. Dog came running through the woods, and when he reached the rock he stopped and looked behind him to see if anyyne was following Then he. began to pul! at his collar with his fore paws: he tugged and rubbed his head against the ground, and after a while off came the collar, and Mr, Dog gave himself a shake and began digging beside the rock.

He could hear Mr. Dog barking and the hens cackling, but it grew fainter and fainter, and by and by he did not hear it at all. He did not stop running, however, un- til he reached his home, and there Mr. Fox fel! right into his house and groaned and groaned. “Oh! that collar. off,’’ he moaned.

Madame Hen cried loudly and all the others cackled so that Mr. Dog bounded out of his hovse and began to bark.
