RESIGNS BRENT }# ALSO Confirmation of Denman’s Suc- _ cessor Recommended in Sen- ate, Delay on Colby. WASHINGTON, July 2% —Announce- ment was made today at the White House that Theodore Brent, vice chair- _man of the Shipping Board, had ten- dered his resignatio: but that it has not been acted .pon by President Wil- son. In his letter Brent said he agreed with Denman, the resigned chairman of the beard, in his controversy with Major- General Goethal®, who, up until yester- day, was the manager of the Emergency Fleet Corporation. Reac Admiral Washington L. Capps, chief constructor of the navy, is in charge of the Emergency Fleet cor- poration as successor to Major-General Goetha!s whose resignation was accepted by the President yesteraay. The nomi- nations of Edward N Hurley of Chicago as chairman cf the Shipping Board, to succeed William Denman, whose resirc- nation was requested by the Presid.wt yesterday, and of Bainbridge Colby, as a member of the board to succeed Cpt. John B. White of Kansas City, were be- fere the Commerce Committee of the Benate today for action and confirma- tion for Hurley was recommended. Aotion on Colby, who was one cf the leaders of the Progressive party, was delayed. However, no serious opposition to him is expected. “We must build ships, not talk about thom,’ declared Hurley, in outlining his plans. “American labor, the most skill- ful and intelligent in the world, can turn out the ships tn record-breaking time, and we are going to buckle down and get busy.”’ Trouble From Start. Virtually from,the start of the trouble, it has become known, Denman did not have the full support of the board for his wooden ont Pe BIORIWD.. Donald and Stevens consistently supported Gen Goethals, but Vice Chairman Brent and Capt. White stood with the chairman. After he had offered his resignation a month ago on account of ill health, Capt. White returned to Washington in time to cast the deciding vote against the Goethals building program. Gen. Goethals’ announcement of this program furnished the cause for a defi- nite split between him and Denman. Much of the Goethals plan was the ori;- inal program proposed by the Shipping Board, but Denman is said to have re- sented the fact that the General in mak- ing it public declared he would proceed without consulting the board. The President's order conferring the powers given ‘y Congress authorized the board to operate ships and the cuor- poration to build them. Gen. Goethals, reinforced by a letter from President Wilson which declared he would not he hampered, took the order to mean he would have a free hand. Denman, with a letter from the President which he thought charged the Shipping Board with responsibility for the expenditure of the funds supplied by Congress, promptly blocked the General's plans. Difficulties Develop. Difficulties then developed thick and fast and another letter went from the White House to Gen. Goethals. It called the General to account for announcing hig program without firet consulting the board and made it clear that he was no- in supreme charge of the building pro. gram and must not proceed without the approval of the Shipping Board. In reply the General wrete a letter ot- @ fering to resign and declaring he ha‘ _ been given to understand previously by the President, the Shipping Roard ana “all others concerned that he was to have absolute authority. The Goethals program, which includes commandeering ail private shipping un- der construction and the building of two Government-owned shipyards, for put- ing together fabricated steel ships, un Goubtedly will be adopted almost as it Stands. Denman already has forced changes which will reduce the cost of ships to be fabricated and the State MDe- partment is behind hie position that the United States should ~equisition Br'tisn ghips building in American yards. The correspondence dealing with the shipping row will be found elsewhere in the Post-Dispatch.

MOBILIZATION PLANS MADE Persons Summoned Become at Once Subject to Military Law and Articles of War. By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, July between states for the honor of being 25.—The race first to fill their quotas under the se- lective draft bill is on today in earnest. Calling of men for physical examina- tion began this morning in several re- gions. Meanwhile details of the machinery for actually calling accepted men into service and sending them to mobiliza- tion camps are being worked out. Pro- vost Marshal General Crowder alreadv has ruled that the claim of the army atlaches to any registered men as soon as the ‘\.~] selection board has posted him arf are--v ed: Sulj-.t to Military Law. From that time on, unless exempted, he will be subject to military law anc the articles of war. Failure to appear wher c lied will bring the military forces of the Provost Marshal General in search of the missing man and he will be tried for any violation of regu- lations by a courtmartial This ruling was necessary to enforce prompt com- pliance of all accepted men with army orders. It appears probable that accepted men, when the mobilization order for the new army is given, will be first assembled in their selection board headquarters. Their cistribution among caaton nents, Gen Crowder said today, would be governed by two rules—first, the section of the law requiring that they be assigned, us far as practicable, to duty with troops from their own State; and, secondly, the lecation of th enearest cantonment, to reduce the transportation problem as much as possible. No Second Draft This Year. No informati has reached Gen. Crowder indicating that there will be any need during the present year to summon a draft in addition to the 687,000 men now called for. Estimates to cover expenses of a second increment have been submit- ted, it was pointed out, because al! these expenditures must be made in advance of a call, to have equipment and quarters ready. With physical examinations about to begin, the record of the civil war draft becomes interesting. At that time 25.77 per cent of the men called up were rejected for physical defects. There is no reason tv expect, it is said, any material increase in that factor. Exemptions for industrial or simi- lar reasons, aS well as exemptions because of dependent relatives, enter an unexplored field. Few Errors in First Report. The final master list of the draft shows a few errors in the unofficial re- port of the drawing already transmitted throughout the country by the press Including all the adjustments found nec- essary in correcting the official list to make up for numbers that were read upside down, or were misread, and a'so all errors in transcription in the ‘rush of teh drawing and the haste tu get the figures to the wires, there are less than two score variations between the list compiled by. the Associated Press anJ the master sheet. The surprise of the official! record is the fact that the missing number indi- cated by the drawing of a blank cap- sule as number 10,004, was located as serial number 5794. It was placed last in the master sheet and becomes liabil- ity number 10,500. Number 2780, drawn as number 10,498, was found to be dupli- cated and was stricken out. No allowance is to be made in the draft quotas for voluntary enlist- ments of the past few days, unless executive orders lowering the num- ber of men to be called in the draft shall be issued. Army officers say they have been directed to raise 687,000 men and will do so, regard- less of the number of vcluntary en- listments, unless the orders to them are changed. Only 40,000 men are needed to fi}] the regular army ranks to war strength, and reports ind@pate that the number of voluntary enlistments in this service in the last week wil] run well up into the thousands, but the men called in the draft who are not needed for the army, militia or the new National Army, will be used as a reserve force The draft call provided for 500.900 men for the new National Army and 187,000 to be distributed between the militia and the regulars. No pro- vision was made for losses in the ranks of the regulars at the front. If these run as high as 10 per cent a month, as army men believe to be possible, every man called in the draft can be utilized despite the high number of enlistments. It is proba- ble that draft reserves will go into camp with the new army, although seme of them may be assigned to and drilled with the regular forces. Officials of the Marine Corps an- nounce that they will accept for en- listment any man called tn the draft up to the time his number is posted for examination. Some men have ‘Continued eon Page 2.

RETAILERS GIVE $5000 Immediate Steps Will Be Taken to Recruit and Outfit Defense Regiments. Subscriptions totaling $67,250 toward a fund to equip and maintain two regi- ments of home guards in St. Louis were pledged in 15 minutes this morning at a meeting at the city hall after it had been voted by those present to solicit a fund of $100,000 instead of the $50,000 originally proposed. About 300 persons, including many leading business men of the city, attended the meeting, which was addressed by Mayor Kjel, Festus J. Wade, J. Lionberger Davis, John F. Queeny and others. The largest single pledge was $5000 from the Associated Retailers. The Manufacturers’ Assoviation gave $2500, the Merchants Exchange $2000, and the Chamber of Commerce $1000. Thirty-one private firms and individuals pledged $1000 each, one gave $€00, 14 gave $500 each, 13 gave $250 each, three gave $200 each, 30 gave $100 each and one gave $50. On motion of Festus J. Wade it was decided to select a committee of five to have charge of the fund, and on mo- tion of Richard McCulloch it was voted to select a committee of 2% to recruit and equip the two regiments. These committees will be numed later. It was announced that if at the conclusion of the war, when the home guards are ex- pected to be disbanded, there was any of the money left, it would be pro rated and returned to the subscribers. Richard S. Hawes, chairman, said the success of the meeting convinced him that the entire fund of $100,000 could be next Morday.

The rate of the latter town was virtually decide with the Germans holding the sul- urb just across the Sereth River With- in casy gun range. The Germans chose the junction point of the seventh and eleventh armies before beginning their offen- sive the first blow being struck be- tween Zboroff and Pebako on a 20- mile front. Without great effort, as admitted in the Russian official com- munications, they pursued their ad- vance to the line of the Sereth. This uncovering of the Russian positions south of Tarnopo!l forced a retiremert all along the, diagonal! line souahwest- ward, cutting the Strypa and Zlota Lipa to Halicz and the Lomnica. The Rus- sians have been obliged to retire to the right bank of the latter river. One of the first results has been a general agitation for the restoration of the death penalty for insubordination in the army and for treasonable con- duct on the part of agitators. Gen. Korniloff, commander on the south- west front. issued orders to all sub- ordinate commanders to open fire on deserters and troops refusing to obey orders. Premier Kerensky has sanc- tioned the effort to restore discipline. Many Mazimalists to whose agitation the demoralization of the troops is d}- rectly attributed have been arrested. The official statement issued yester- day said: “Southwest of Dvinsk our detachments, aftér strong artillery preperation, occu- pied German positions on both sides of the Dvinsk-Vilna ratiway. After this success. entire units, without any pres- sure by the Germans, voluntarily re- turned to their original trenches. A number of these units refused to carry out military commands during the bat- tle. “Detachments of the Twenty-fourth Division, the Tulsky, Lovitsky and Sa- raosky regiments, and the ‘Battalion of Death,’ acted hereitcally and, as at other points, the gallantry of the officers was noteworthy.

COPENHAGEN, July %3.—A _ special dispatch to the Berlin Zeitung Am Mit- tag from East Galicia says detach- ments are pressing forward by forced marches south and southeastward from the gap in the Russian line, and that the Russians cannot possibly save their big military depots at Koseva and Krayve. The dispatch says that to the north the PRussians are beginning to totter. The number of prisoners taken is high. but no attempt has been made to count them, owing to the haste of the ad. vance. Many Russians also have been killed in the fighting. An Austrian semi-official mvs “The disorganizing effects of defeat upon the Russian organizations are steadily spreading from sector to sec- tor. The Austro-German vperations are so placed as to drive a large part of the Russian army from the natural line of communications and force a retreat over difficult and unprepared routes. This change of base, difficult enough for troops in good order, threatens a catastrophal effect on the undisciplined and uncohesive Russian masses. The resistive ability of the Russians is af- fected and the units are breaking up and scattering. “The Russian losses in officers, whe are sacrificing themselves recklessly In attempting to stay the rout, are enor- mous.

FREE RUSSIANS FACE DISASTER, ARTHUR HENDERSON DECLARES Member of English War Council Says Only Firm Hand Can Avert Tragedy for People, LONDON, July 25.—A great tragedy is being enacted in the life of the free Russian people, according to Arthur Henderson, member of the British War Council and represe-tative of labor, who has just returned from an extend- ed visit to Russia. He is co..vinced that unless the ..tuation is han*'ed with firmness, there must be disaster. Hen- derson said in an interview that th> difficulties of the Petrograd Govern- meit were such as no other Govern- ment ever experienced It was impos- sible to convey anything like an ade- quate conception of the extent to which the extremists dominated the life of the capital, demoralizing the army and navy, especially those units in close proximity to Petrograd. The true extremists, he declared, did not represent more than a small minor- ity of the population, but such had been the spirit of terror exercised, together with their destrictive influence over certain sections of the military forces, that they rendered 1 st-ble gove: ament Cifficult, if not almost ‘)s.ssible. Henderson considered tw most dis- astrous experiment of the _ revolution the relaxation of discipline in the army and navy and the association of those services with political and revolution- ary propaganda.

By ARTHUR §. DRAPER. SOMz WHERE IN FRANCE, July 25.—Every British soldier knows the “pull ring.” The veterans remember it as the place in France where the Sergeant-— Major's voice sounds like the roar of a lion's, where the drill masters con- sider their charges untiring. The “bull ring’ is the post-gradu- ate school of the British army, and its short course so strenuous its pupils pass up to their places in the trenches with a sigh of relief and a strong conviction they are off on a holiday. Or the course might be compared with the ~sho.. final pe- riod of exacting coaching in which “racing polish” is put on a boat's CF = . he “bull ring’ is only one of the several graduate schools run on sim- ilar lines. These are the places where the men are put through ordi- nary parade movements in close or- der, in open order, in bayonet fight- ing, musketry and bombing. There is not a vacant moment in which to be bored. In Sight of the Trenches. I spent a day in the “bull ring” and I have sharp recollections of tear shells and gas chambers, of a Tom- nry armed with a bayonet and gun facing a pantherlike Sergeant, who stabbed every part of his anatomy with an implement which looked like the handle of a mop, of a 250-pound Australian scaling a seven-foot wall, but I should want to be mighty fit before I enrolled in this school for the regular course. The “bull ring’’ is near enough to the firing line to have a certain war atmos- phere, emphasized as it is by the con- s.ant rattle of the machine guns and the sharp bang of the hand and rifle grenades: it is far enough back to make it an ideal spot for a health resort, which it really is, though the frerd- worked Tommy, taking the course, con- siders it at the time as anything else. The effect of the “bull ring” on the is American expeditionary force would be that the m~» smaller proportionately than that ox Britain’s original expeditionary force. But today theer is no shortage of ravid- fire guns in the Britisn army. If ther: had been it would have been absolutely impossible for Haig’s men to have worked forward from Arras and held their gains. Machine Guns Vital. The machine gunners, who rush for- ward and drop into a shell hole and mow down ranks of the oncoming en- emy, are a brave and clever lot of men. In their advanced position, wherever it be, they have to bear the full brunt of the counter-attack. A single machine gun nest often accounts for a whole bat- talion, and it takes a cool head and superb nerve to geep a mitrailleuse sing- ing when 1600 men are bearing down on the operator. There are a great variety of bombs, but one about the size of a baseball! is the favorite in the British army. In the “‘bull-ring’’ a special course is given for bombers. They go through all the manouvers of charging and _ hurling bombs at an imaginary enemy. Then the men are taught how to fire a rifle grenade, the angle at which it should be fired for the range desired. and the setting of the fuse, unless it happens to be a concussion grenade. An Aus- bomb. American baseball players in the expedition army may look with scorn upon the mark, but they will have more respect for the record when they try to threw over-handed one of these ““pills’’ weig! tg three times as much as a baseball. In the machine-gun school, close by the ‘bull ring,’’ the men are taught the lessons learned in the latest fighting. They learn the fine points of their own weapon, they study gun emplacements and fire at targets at various ranges. Every member of a gun team comes out of the school a past master of his par- ticular jab. Before leaving the machine gun operators and the bombers some- thing must be said about the gas and tear shell drille. In the “bull- ring’ there is a large chamber con- taining gas. Through this the men are ordered to pass after they have become thoroughly acquainted with their respirators. Wore a Mask for 17 Hours. I met a young soldier the other day who was on leave from the Ar- tas front. He told me he had worn & gas mask for no less than seven- teen consecutive hours. The tear shell is cn annoying but not serious instrument of warfare, unless a fragment of it happens to hit one. The sharp fumes stab aed eyes as if they were being pierced by red hot needles, but the effect s00n wears off. Every American soldier is famil- lar with wall scaling, and the “bull- ring” offers little new in this line. Day after day the men are trained, until finally they go over the wall almost with the skill and agility of a high jumper. There is no more interesting de- Partment of the training camp than that devoted to trench building and mine crater. defences. The soldiers are taught how to build a trench, where to place machine guns to com- mand a trench, how to put up wire entanglements and how to get through them. The bayonet is still a handy weap- on in close conflict. In the “bull- ring” is a Sergeant-Major who is the last word in the handling of a bay- onet. He is a short, chunky Scots- man with a deep chest and powerful voice. He is as quick as a cat and as strong as a lion. He is a comDina- tion of wrestler, boxer and jiu jitsu expert. And above all he knows how to teach. Instructor Weilds Mop Handle. First he demonstrated how to make a straight thrust, then an uppercut to the jaw, then how to withdraw the bay- onet from the body of the enemy, and finally the way to parry his own of- fensive methods. He used a mop handle en his opponent and then permitted his cpponent to tackle him with cold steel No fencer could cut, thrust and parry quicker than this little Scotsman, who taught from experience gained in actual battle. As he beat his kilted sides and roared his orders the soldiers seemed to ©ecome infected with his skill and power. "“i-hin a short time they were drilling ‘witr a rhythmic precision that spoke wel, for the master and brought smiles to the faces of the admiring officers. The advantages of completing training before leaving for the :ront were recog- nized early in the war, and the system has grown from that of imparting a lit- tle technical knowledge likely to be of value under the special conditions at the front to an essential branch of the soldier's education. This short, but im- portant course of t:ac:ng is designed partly to maintain a he. dex er cf dis- cipline and physical fi.ress au.d -irtly, to insure that a sufficiently high scandard of efficiency is reached before the men leave for the front. Provide for All Emergencies. It is usually found that the accuracy of musketry shooting is good, and sub- sequent musketry instruction is of a technical or theoretic nature, consisting ot fire airection and control practices, rapid loading and aiming, the necessity tor which the war has justified probab'y more fully than any other branch of training. After this preliminary work, instruc- tion is developed .n two main directions: That of maintaining physical efficiency }. and accustoming men ‘o some extent to the exertions which will be required of them, and that of supplying them with certain technical or special) knowleuge which will be of service to them under conditions prevailing at the front. Bayonet fignting also plays a part in this section of their training. The war has revolutionized our ideas of the use of the bayonet. In the old days there were those who regarded it as a weapon who-e uses had passed, but there prot- ably —re few at the front today who re- gard the bayonet in that light. Old Methods Again in Vogue. The e#vecial conditions of trench wer- fare have necessitated much technicul trainina in weapons which are either new or modifications of appliances for- merly thought obsolete. The grenade has come into its own again, and that we1)- on is now a very effective smal! arm in the hands of the infantry. Gas aiso has become a contingency to which men must be accustomed during their train- ing. and trench engineering and allied subpects call for apecial instruction. Gas is more dangerous to the mora'e of the troops than to their actual safe- ty; and a demonstration of its harm- lessness, if the right steps are taken to counteract it, does much to disarm tho gas attack of its worst terrors. The men are also taught how to put up wire entanglements, f_ll sand bags and a va- riety of other work. The men of the colontal armies trein there with the British troops, and the association in training, though a short one, must tend to inspire mutual confi- dence in the trenches. j It Will Be Addressed Principally to Peoples of Russia and | | : Austria. | PARIS, July 2%.—The labors of the allied conference, which began here to- Cay, will not be limited to the Balkans, For one thing, it is important to clear the air after the Reichstag action last Although Premier Lloyd George already has r>plied to a certain extent ‘o the speech of Chancellor Michaelis, it is desired, says the Matin, that the allies should issue a joint statement on what happened at Berlin so that Germany's | maneuver may everywhere be checked reasons given, where they are de- week, , and | cided, that the allies cannot accept the Reichstag resolution as a basis for peace ; negotiations. This explanation, adds the Matin, will be principally addressed to the peoples of Russia and Austro-Hungary. There must be no risk of Russian revolution- aries being duped by the Reichstag, and the allies must demonstrate to them what would be the result in Europe if Germany's crimes are allowed to go un- runished. At the same time the Austro-Hunga- rian press, evidently acting under orders from the Foreign Office, is trying to create the impression that the Reichstag made concessions which the allies are likely to regard as dictated by a spirit of conciliation. It is necessary to remove all doubts on this subject, and show the peoples of Austro-Hungary how com- plete and final would be their subser- vience to Germano-Magyar domination if peace were now made on a basis of no annexations and no indemnities. Premier Ribot, M. Painleve, Minister of War, and Albert Thomas, Minister of Munitions, had a long conference yes- terday afternoon with the British Pre- mier, Foreign Minister Balfour and Baron Sonnino, Italian Minister of For- eign Affairs. After the meeting Ribot went to the Elyses Palace and saw President Poincare. France's representatives at the confer- ence are Ribot, Painleve, Admiral La- caze, Minister of Marine; Leon Bour- ceoisc, Minister of Labor; Thomas, Gen Foch, Senator Jonnart, Entente High Commissioner in Greece; Jules Cambon, Genera Secretary to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and De Margerie, Di- rector of Political Affairs in the Foreign Office, who acts as secretary. Vice Admiral] Sims, commander of the American naval forces in European wa- ters, will be present at all the sittings, ut which questions other than the Balkans will be discussed. EAST ST, LOUIS ASSESSES FREE BRIDGE AT $6,001,155 Proposed Levy Against Structure in Illinois Will Be Contested as Illegal. Assessments of $6,001,155 instead of $3,000,000, as first announced, have been levied against the Free Bridge by As- sessor George H. Moore of East St. Louis. This discovery was made yvester- day by City Counselor Daues when he appeared before the Board of Review of St. Clair County to ask for a reduc- tion of the assessment. The proposed taxes on the bridge in East St. Louis would be about $180,000 a year, Daues learned. On the east highway approach of the bridge the assessment is $3,000,195." The railroad approach is essessed at $3,000,- 960. Daues conteni?s that under the Il- linois statute the highway opproach would be exempt, as its uses is free to pedestrians and vehicles, and that the railroad approach would be assessable, if at all, only after it is completed and in operation. The tax East St. Louis is attempting to collect is equal to 5 per cent on an investment of $3,600,000, or half the cost of the entire structure. The interest on the bonds on the $3,000,000 expended on the east approaches of the bridge rep- resents an additional annual charge of $120,000, and the maintenance will be about $50,000 a year. City Counselor Daues has engaged an East St. Louis firm of attorneys to con- test the proposed tax imposition. 56 TRAPPED IN GANADIAN MINE EXPLOSION, FIVE RESCUED Heavy Loss of Life Believed to Have Occurred in Shaft at New Waterford.

MAN, 60, SAVES VESSEL Coxswain Swings Ship With Lurch; Transports Safe, Hunt for Submarine Begins. A BRITISH PORT ON THE SOUTH- EAST COAST, Wednesday. Just\how a British destroyer acts when June attac by a submarine was unex- pectedly demonstrated to an Associated Press correspondent today while trav- eling on one of the modern oil-driven torpedo boat destroyers from England to France. The correspondent had been taken aboard the destroyer for the purpose of observing British methods of combat- ing the submarine menace, when the Procai was, suddenly a¢*cked by a sub- Marine, a torpedo m.ssing it by a scant six feet, thanks to the vigilance and quick action of the crew. The destroyer was one of a certain number which were convoying in the usual manner some large transports carrying British troops to France. The group of ships was half-way across the channel when suddenly one of the look- outs saw a pair of twin periscopes rise for a moment a bit out of. the water, a half-mile away. They were gone the next instant, but almost before they had gone came the shout “submarine on port bow,’’ accompanied by a shrill call of warning on the destroyer's whistle and the fluttering out of the flag which notified every other ship in the convoy of the enemy’s presence. Things Begin to Happen. On every ship things began to happen more quickly than the telling. Guns were swung in the direction from which the periscope had been seen, ready to speak if the periscope appeared again. Torpedo tubes likewise were swung into line and the numerous anti-submarine devices along deck were in the hands of their skilled expert crews. But even while this was being done came the torpedo, clearly visible from the deck; its gleaming brass body glis- tening in the bright sunlight, its pro- pellers sending it with express train speed straight toward the destroyer. Something was wrong with the mech- anism of this torpedo, for it should have traveled 12 or 15 feet below the surface. Instead, it came bounding along in plain sight now and then leaping out of the water like a flat stone in a skip over the surface. Even thus it might have found its mark but for the presence of mind of the #-year-old coxswain. He had been first to sight the periscope and had rushed immediately to an emergency lever, whereby he instantly stopped the | port engine, thus swinging the ship with a lurch to the left. The torpedo whizzed through the water six feet behind the stern of the destroyer, gradually lessen- ing speed as-it sank into the swirl of the engines, indicating that its possi- bilities for mischief were nearly done. Except for the coxswain’s action in twisting the ship from its course, tlie missile would apparently have made a square hit in the stern magazine. Wireless Sends Warning. Meanwhile the wireless was at work notifying the hundreds of wireless sta- tions in all directions that the sub- marine was near. “We sighted a submarine on the port bow just after blank buoy, 2:0 p. m. Torpedo passed just behind our stern. We are proceeding with our convoy.” said the Captain's message. It was caught simultaneously ashore and on sea by a hundred vigilant operators. ‘The destroyer’s Captain, according to his orders must not leave his convoy to seek out and attack the U-boat. Others would attend to that. Already the; were gathering for the chase, trawlers, chasers, drifters, destroyers. Even a dirigible airship had caught the wireless call and with the quick turn of a sea- gull was swooping down to the pur- suit. The transports and destroyers, al- though fairly confident that the U-boat would scarecly dare show herself again, even for a pot shot, were nevertheless taking every precaution. Every ship was at full speed, oil burning destroy- ers constantly protecting their charges. The whole attack occupied bare sec- onds. Convoy and charges were out of range in a few minutes at the most. Nowhere had there been the slightest panic of flurry, but movements of men and ships were made with almost auto- matic precision and peed. The ef- ficiency of the British naval man is the efficiency of clock work. Every cog knows its place. There is no meddling, no interference, but a confident, rapt, efficiency which somehow demands the use of the adjective ‘“deadiy.” Twenty minutes later the transports were safe in their port of destination and the destroyer convoy was off again 30 miles an hour down the coast to its next appointment. Meanwhile the business of seeking out the enemy was going on in the fleet of submarine hunters which had gathered around “blank buoy.” Just how the work was done and just what was its result, it ie not permitted to tell. $13-Niagara Falls & Return-$13 July 2% & Aug. 4, via Clover Leaf Route. ~ADV.

OTTAWA, July %.—The conscription bill passed the House of Commons yes- terday by a majority of & It now goes to the Senate, where its speedy enactment into law is assured by the presence of a substantial majority sup- porting the Government. English- speaking conservative members voted solidly for the bill and 22 of the En- glish speaking Liberal supporters of Sir Wilfrid Laurier broke away and voted for the Gevernment measure. The remainder of Sir Wilfrid's followers voted with him against conscriptior, und they were joined by five French members, who were elected to support the Government. The vote for conscription was almost entirely English, and, the vote against it was very largely French. Before the vote was taken an appeal for the measure wa3 made by J. G. Tur- riff. a Leberal member, whose only son was killed in France. He opposed sub- mission of conscription to the people by either referendum or general election, because, he said, it would be defeated by the votes of slackers whd had failed to respond to the call for volunteers. Chief Liberal Whippardee declared for conscription and coalition Government. Sir Wilfrid Laurier said it was a new thing for a quss ion to divide both po- litical parties at one time, that it was admitted conscription would be defeated if submitted to the peopre, but the Gov- ernment was prepared to carry the measure by its parliamentary majority and apply it to the country by coercion. The country was facinw a cleavage which, if ‘“‘not checked might rend and tear Canada the the very rootsa’’ A letter had been read from Gen. Curry, commander of the Canadian forces, asking for more soldiers. Sir Whlfrid said ne wished the re- sources of Canada would allow the sending of not merely half a million, but a million men, but it was a question of how many men could be taken from the nation without imperiling the tndustry. the agriculture, and the very life of the country. The Government had asked for 6,- (CO men, he declared, without estimating the man-power of the country, or con- sidering whether men could be best em- ployed on the fighting line, or at home producing food and munitions for the force fighting at the front. Canada had not only to produce food for En- gland, but to make up for food being sent to the bottom by submarines. Sir Wilfrid added that Australia had voted upon and had defeated conscription, | but was still “very much in the war.” ey aaa 8 ey ent your toothb Your druggist has it.

CONTROVERSY ON POLICY Lloyd George’s Skepticism Re- garding Micheeli’s Speech Justified in Press. COPENHAGEN, July 25.—A remark- abiy frank article by the Berlin corre- spondent of the National Tidende passed by the Foreign Office censorship cusses the submarine campaign > is dis- generally recognized, he says, that tne longer the campaign continues the fewer friends Germany will have after the war. This consideration, together with the thoughts of the many billions which an- other six months of war would cost, were the principal factors which con- tributed to bringing a majority of tne Reichstag int» line upon a bid for peace The aprrespondent says it is generally admitted that the effect of the campaiga has been miscalculated, not regardinz the amount of tonnage destroyed, but as to time required to make its effect f-lt in England. The German people are convinced that it will succeed ultimately if given time and they themselves are able to hold out. Disregarding Galician happenings an accident, the correspondent says there can be no question of a big of- fensive owing to lack of men, as Field Marshal von Hindenburg frankly admit- ted, but. there is no doybt the front can hold out. The corréspondent gives as the two most striking things upon his return te Berlin as the disappearance of children, who have been sent to the country in thousands, and the apneaiance of a new type of Berliner, a tank individual with skir hanging in folds who has supplant- ed’ the corpulent German. A few huve lost less than 15 pounds in weight, many more than 39, but they are healthy and usually improved. Another feature is the disappearance of vegetables, owing to the drouith. Green yroceries display only lemons and onions. Premier Lloyd George's skepticism re- garding Chancellor Michaelis’ good faith, his doubts whether the Chancel- lor’s reply to the Reichstag resolution reaily means what it pretends to mearn:, his belief that his reference to peace ani security of fre. tiers, was capable of be- ing extended at will to cover the ab- sorption of Belgium and any other de- sired annéxatious, received unexpected justificaticn and corroboration from German sources in the growing frank- ness of criticism which the defunct Zukunft might envy. It was declared yesterdey that Chan- cellor Michaelis’ speech was ambiguous and open tu two interpretations which Lioyd George mentioned. It was added that the policy of silence of poiitical aims inaugurated by ex-Chancellor von Bethmanr-Hollweg and continued Herr Michaelis had laid the German policy open to that dubious repute which Lioyd George criticised. His picture cf German parliamen- terism under the formula of Herr Mich- felis may be distorted, so it was de- clared, but it contains enough truth to serve as a warning to the German peo- ple. The Berlin Tageblatt reprints the fu'l text of Lloyd George's reply to the Ger- man Chancellor, explaining that this is iv . Advisable because remarkable errors of distortion and omission of the sense desired by the Government crept jin summaries of earlier declarations from the opponent's camp which were sup- plied by the seml-official Wolff News Bureau. The Kreuz Zeitung, under fire of the Radical papers. slightly modified but did not revoke statements about the Government's war policy. No official deciaration was made. Replying to greetinks from the Pan- German @#feeting, Admiral Sheer, com- mander of the fleet, said he hoped the German people on the threshold. of vic- tory would not diegracefully renounce its c¢uture. Can't Stay Progress of Arma. “It cannot be the intent of the Jead- ing statesme™~, still less of the supreme military command to renounce the complete exploitation of the military fituation so as to obtain what the war has shown to be necéssary for Ger- many’s present and future,’ says the Berlin Kreuz Zeitung. “International peace formulae cannot possibly stay the victorious progress of our arms or the full utilization of the advantages purchased with our blood. The Chan- cellor could not wish to say that, and did not. “Even more vigorously than against attempts to commit the Chancellor mus, a protest be lodged against attempts to claim the supreme military cominand fe in favor of the Erzberger-Scheide- mann resolution. The Chancellor mere- ly declared that the supreme command Was in accord with his dectiaration, and by no means said it approved the peace resolution. We know positively that the exact opposite is correct and that the supreme command is in no wise mind- ed to permit the fruits of the sword to be lost through this resolution, when the proper time comes. “The duty of us conservatives now is to set to work to enlighten the people as to what peace must bring the coun- try and to inculcate it unshaken into the nation. In this care we know we ere at one with the supreme command the Emperor.’’ “Under the influence of articles like that tn the Kreuz Zeitung, and with time for calm reflection upon the limi- tations of Chancellor Michaelis’ speech, the German Liberals and Radicals are egin to wake from the soporific - ¢ontent induced by their apparent vic- tory im the recent internal crisis and the adoption of peace resolutions.

We have, in addition to our peace manifesto, expressed readi- ness for an honorable peace and accord with the allies.”’ Count Tisza, the formér Premier, said complete harmony on war aims, peace terms and for a loyal maintenance of the alliance existed between the Reichs- tag and Hungarian public Spinion. —_——— eee LEADER IN REICHSTAG DIES Maj.

NEW YORK, July %.—The World to- day prints the following from its Wash- ington Bureau: ‘‘Nine American officers who accom- panied Gen.

Astounded at Conditions. “They admitted they were astounded at conditions and that virtually all of their preconceived notions were faulty. According to the observers, the Ger- man line on the western front is virtu- ally impregnable, as far as the present alignment. of forces is concerned. The allies cannot budge this line unless they receive tremendous assistance from thie United States. “There is no evidence whatever that the backbone of the German empire is about to be broken because of interna] dissensions or shortage of foods. “The allied officers on the front admit freely that they cannot break the Ger- man line with their present force. “Temporarily, at least, Germany is in tne ascendancy in, the air. There are at present approximately 5,000.009 French and British troops in France and they are facing approximately 3,000,000 Ger- mans. Behind this force Germany has 4,200,000 reserves. Of this number 2,000,- 000 have been called out to meet the anticipated spring drive beginning on March 1. The other 2,290,000 will be called to act as the third line.

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH ee eee U.S. IN UNGODLY PROFITABLE SYSTEM BY * BELLEVILLE PAPER SAYS WHICH NEWARK SHARES IN STREET RAILWAY EARNINGS ——— City Gets 5 Per Cent of Gross Receipts; Com- pany Pays Car License, for Paving, Sprink- ling and Snow Removal Along Its Tracks. NEWARK, N. J., July %.—Ten days ago the Public Service Railway Co., which owns all the street railways sys- tems of Newark and Essex County, and in addition, nearly all of the important systems in New Jersey, presented to the Comptroller of this city its check for the amount of $199,948. This sum repre- sented, according to the company’s method of computing, 5 per cent of the gross receipts‘of all its lines from pas- Senger traffic within the city limits, for the year ending Apri! 30 last. This payment was made in compli- ance with an agreement, embodied in a city ordinance passed in 1891 by the Common Council, under the terms of which the then operating street railway companies bound themselves and their successors to pay this proportionate share of their gross earnings to the city. The consideration was permission grant- ed by the city to the companies to use the overhead electric trolley system as @ motive power for the operation of their lines. Since this agreement has been in effect the aggregate of the pay- ments made to the city has been ap- proximately $3,000,000. The yearly pay- ments have increased in amount con- sistently, with but two exceptions, throughout the life of the agreement, which is perpetual! as to its tenure. This year showed an increase of about $22,000 over 1916. Lines Are Merged. Soon after this agreement was promul- gated the city charter was amended end the Board of Street and Water ( smmissioners superseded the Common Council in the control of the streets ani public works gerierally. This board re- enacted the ordinance, maintaining the Same conditions with respect to the payment of the privilege tax of 5 per cent. In the meantime all the street car lines had been electrified and the older method of horse motive power hal disappeared. Also the local lines had all been merged into one system and operated by the Consolidated Tracticn Co. No further changes have been made in the agreement, while the Con- solidated gave way to the North Jersey Street Railway Co., and that, in turn, to the Public Service, which has owne’ and operated the lines since 1902. The 5 per cent payments are of the nature of a special obligation upon the railway company. The money so paid goes into the city’s contingent account and is applied, along with other reve. nues, to the reduction of the annua! tax levy, and so is a direct benefit the taxpayers. These payments are not in Heu of any other obligation o fthe company, which in addition ts assessed upon all of its taxable property, real and per- sonal, pays an annual license #10 per car) for every far employed in the local service, pays the cost of all atreet pavings and repavings where is lines extend, for the space between the tracks and one foot additional on either side of the tracks, pays for the watering of the streets where its lines are and shares with the city the cost of snow removal on thise streets. The agreement would not be termi- nated in the «vent of the abandonment of the overhead trolley system, as pro- vision is made for its continuance if other forms of motive power should be installed. The Public Service, through original grant or succession, controls perpetual franchise rights in about ail the valuable rtreets of the city. It is so intrenched t. reason of these rights that it is perfectly safe from competi- tion from any other railway company, as there is no field left in the city for such exploitation by a rival concern. The 5 per cent payment is guaranteed to the city by another process. There is a State law which requires railway com- panies using the streets to pay 5 per cent of their gross receipts to the mu- io nicipalities. This act had its beginning in 19%. It was inspired by the success- ful operation of the Newark agreement. The statute first passed called for the payment of 2 per cent of gross receipts by all companies using the pubiic streets to the municipality wherein such use was enjoyed. This city Was pro- tected as to its 5 per cent agreement by a clause in the act which provided that where such agreements existed the 2 per cent franchise tax was to be deemed to be in part payment of the local agree- ment tax. Amount Is Increased. - This law covering all street using utilities, including gas, electric, water, telephone and telegruph companies, not municipally owned and operated. It countinued unchanucd until 199% when a supplement was passed providing that street railway companics should there- after pay at a graduating percentage of gross receipts, one-half per cent A year until it reached 5 per cent, when it should remain atationary. The maxi. inum was reached in 1911. Meantime, until this year, the fran- chise tax on other utilities remained stationary at 2 per cent. The Legis- lature of this vear emended the law on the same basis as the act of 1906; that is, it provided that al! other utility companies should pay on a graguating scale of 1 per cent a year until the tax shall amount, for the business of 1919 and thereafter, to 5 per cent. From all these franchise ‘tax, obligations, the railroads and canals of the State are specifically exempted, they being taxed under other laws. The companies have always paid the 5 per cent on the basis of track mileage. Many of the lines cross the city line into adjacent municipalities. No process of prorating the number of passengers riding on these interurban roads within and without the city, or the relative dis- tance ridden in and out of the city, was ever: attempted. The rule estab- lished merely pro rated the length of tracks of each line lying within the city limits to the whole length of the line, and the city has received for its share 56 per cent on the business, proportioned arbitrarily, according to the relative trackage distances. This was a con- stant cause of controversy and friction between the city and companies until the State franchise act superseded the local agreement, in effect, at least. That act specifically fixes track mileage as the basis of tax payments, but it also provides that the apportionment with respect to interurban lines shall be on the additional basis of the value of the railroad property in the streets of each municipality in which they are oper- ated. As an outgrowth of the controversy over the tax basis, the city and the rail- road company are now in court. The city contended that the companies were required under the agreement contained in the ordinance to ascertain the exact amount of earnings from actual traffic within the city. Several methods, some of which, it was claimed, would at least approach scientifiC exactness, were pro- posed as being more fair to the city. The track mileage basis fails to pro- vide for short or intermediate runs of cars. Thus, if a trip is made wholly within the city on a line that extends twice the distance outside the city, the 5 per cent is computed not on the city run but on the entire length of the line and the city gets paid only in the pro- portion of one-third, of the earnings of the run. Attempts of the city to change the basis to one more favorable, and more just, it was claimed, and the resistance of the companies, one after the other to such demands, culminated in a suit at law with the city as complainant, clatm- ing the sum of $900,000, which it ac- cused the companies of having with- held out of the aggregate of the annual Es ee atk ta. eek eae A Pps spes siping tee a Bete So a) EER, cae Seay MRCS Ne, MRIS eae Ie . 8 TS Es ey ‘ Ca eh at a Se Beryl frbe 4 nen See Ge TS Gea, gr a ees ee ee oe yo e Yt - e, ~. bes tp ie A ee ee oa? > Morning Record Declares Flag Is Being ‘‘Prostituted;”. Millions. Oppose Draft. The Morning Record, an English lan- guage newspaper printe) at Belleville, in ite issue today, defenas itself against criticism aroused by its allusion to draft day as “Black Friday.” In an editorial the war ie called “ungodly; protest is: made against the “‘prostitution” of the flag and it is declared that millions of Americans are hostile to service in the war. Some little criticiam of the “Black Friday’’ article was heard lecally, the editorial says, and it was anticipated that “the self-appointed guardians of American liberty typified in the blatant pro-British press'’ would soon be heara from. Mayor Duvall, who was quoted in the Post-Dispatch as saying the utterances of the Morning Record did not reflect the sentiments of the people of Belle- ville, is spoken of as “piping the same tune that the swivel chair patriots all over the country are piping.” These patriots, “conserve their own precious lives at home and shriek treason every time a man stands up and protests against this ungodly war.” “It is true,” the editorial continues. “that the time to talk about the causes is past. It is a pity that this is true. No individual or nation can commit a wrong against the world and then plead that it is too late to talk about it, but that is exactly what England, what Ger- many, what France and what Russia are doing and now America is doing she )saine thing.” . America is declared to be fighting th battle of England and France and all the allies are represented as laugh'ng ut us for coming in at the eleventh hour to win what they could not win themselves. ‘That millions of Ameri- cans feel this way,” the editorial con- tinuee, “is proved by the apathy of the masses, yes, by the hostility to uctual service apparent among the mil- lions."’ The editor says he wore the United States uniform in the Spanish-Amert- can war, and he is siill devoted to the flag, tut “in his innermost heart and with what voice he has he protests sgainst the prostitution of that sacred embiem, and the misuse of a patriotic and willing people to serve the ends cf the cubal of Englard, France, Russia and Japan, which has for its aim the destruction of the German people be-— of the competition they have able to give Sngland for the business. cause been world's MANY APPLY FOR PLACES IN HOSPITAL UNIT 2\ 47 Recruits Who Will Be Sent to France Will Be on Same Footing as Enlisted Men in Army.

WASHINGTON, July 2%.—The shipping row, whicr was settled yesterday with President W'] ~:’s requést for the resig- nation of Chai:man Denman of the Federal Sripo'ng Board and his ac- ceptance of the resignation of Major- Genera’ Goetaais, general manager of the Emergency Fleet corporation, is dis- cussed in *he correspondence made pub- | lic at the White House. Goethals’ Letter to President. Gen. Goethals’ letter of July 2 to the President follows: “I beg to acknowledge your letter of July 19 and wish to express my appre- ciation of the considerate manner in which you have stated the conclusions which you have reached. “In the project for the rapid emer- ships dated March 2%, 1917, and approved by you on April 4 last, it was stated that: ‘To se- cure the speed of production, which :s all-important, we feel that the task of securing and equipping these ships should be put in the hands of one mano Centralized control is essential for rap- id and efficient work.’ “It was on thi- understanding on my part that ~ undertook the work at your request. This understanding was sub- sequently confirmed, not only when I took up the matter with the Shipping Board, but at the hearings before, the subcommittee of the Committee on Ap- propriations of the United States Sen- ate, where it was stated that I was ‘to have absolute and complete authority for the administration on the construc- tion side; that everything the board could do would be done, and that it would act on my suggestion and initia- tive.’ “These assurances were placed much more clearly before the members of the Subcommittee on Appropriations of the House. “The necessity for shipping makes ‘t imperative that results be secured 4s rapidly as possible. It is results, by whomever obtained, which count after all, and nothing should be allowed interfere with the accomplishment of this end. I have endeavored to estapb- lish harmonious” relations with the Shipping Board, but regret to state that I have not succeeded, and it seems impossible to secure the unison of pur- pose essential to the success of this work. to Centralization Necessary. “Believing that a centralization of power in one man is neces8ary to carry cut the shipbuilding program rapidiy and successfully, after mature consid- eration of the whole subject, I am sat- isfied that I cannot secure efficient re- sults under the conditions of your let- ter. “T am convinced, therefore, that the best interests of the public welfare would be served if I wére replaced by someone on whom full authority can be centered and whose personality will not be a stumbling block. It is my urgent hope that this solution will commend itself to vou and in order that the work may be delayed as little as possible by a change. if vou deem it wise, I shall be glad to continue in charge until my successor can be selected and to re- main with him until he has thorough knowledge of the organization that has been built up and is able to familiarize himself with the work that has already been undertaken. “You are assured of my loval quiescence ‘n the directions given letter and al! future orders.’’ Gen. Goethals is eager to go to France as a part of the military organization. Although specially designated by the President for the shipbuilding task, he has remained on the retired list of the army. ac- in your Presidento Denman. The President's letter to Denman fol- lows: “T hope and believe that | am inter- preting your best judgment as well as my own when I say our duty concern- ing the debate and misunderstandings that have arisen in connection with the shipbuilding program ought to be settled without regard to our personal preferences or our personal #-elings a!-. together, and with the single purpose of doing what will be best to serve the public interest. “No decisio.: we can arrive at could eliminate the eleme.ts of controversy that have crept into almost every question connected with the program, and 1! am convinced the only wise course is to begin a’resh—not upon the rogram, for that already in fresh part in process of exeention, but upon the further execution of it. “| have found both vou and Gen. (0etlals ready to serve the public at a personal sacrifice. Realizing that ihe only manner.in which the way can become completely cleared for har- monious and effect've action is to carry our shipbuilding p'ans forward from this point through new agencies. Gen. Goethals has put his reignation in my hands, and I hive xcecpted it in ihe same spirit in wh'ch it was tender- ed—not as deciding betw-en the two men, whom I respect and admire, but in order to make insidious decisicns inrnecessary and let the work be de- veloped without further discussion of what is past. “fam taking the liberty of writing te tell you this in the confidence that you will be glad to take the same dis- interested and seif-forgetting course that Gen. Goethals nas taken. When you have done as we has done. I am sure that you may count with the ut- 18 ; most copfidence upon the vitimate ver- A i dict of the people of the country with F — a regard to your magnanimous and un- eelfish view of public duty and upen wininng* the respect, the same admira- tion and confidence that I have learned te feel for vou. “With much appreciation of have rendered “Cordially and ‘sircerely yours, WOODROW WILSON.” & President to Goethals. President Wilson's letter to Gen. Gove- thals follows: “Your letter of July 20 does you great honor (this was the General's letter of resignation). it is conceived in a fine spirit of public duty, such as I have learned to expect of you. This is, as you fay, a Case where the service of the pub. lic, is the only thing to be considered. Personal feelings and personal prefer- ences must be resolutely set aside, and we must do the thing that is most serv- iceable. It is with that thought .n mind that I feel constrained to.sav that { think that you have interpreted your cuty rightly. “No impartial determination of the questions at issue can now set the ship- building program promptly and effect- ively on its way to completion and suc- cess. It is best that we take the self- forgetting course you suggest and begin egain with a fresh sheet of paper—hbegin regard and very, great the targe services you not the shipbuilding, but the further ad-: ministration of the program.. The ship building is, happily, in large part begun and can now readily -bé pushed to com- pliétion if the air be cleared of the de- Fates that have unfortunately dark- ered it. ‘“‘With deep appreciation, therefore, of your generous attitude, and with genuine admiration of what you have been able in,a short time to accomplish, I accept your resignation, and feel that in doing sc Iam acting upon your best judgment as well as my own. I hope that you will feel the same undoubting canfidence that I feel that the people of the country fer whom you rendered gréat service will judge you.justly.and generously in this as in other things and that all personal misunderstandings anid misjudgments that have been created will pass in a4 snort time entirely away.’’ "MARRYING PARSON” IN JAIL Woman With Whom He Lived Says They Were Not Wed. CHARLESTON. W. Va., July 3.— Known as the ‘marrying parson,’ with a record of having performed the mar- riage ceremony for 347 couples, the Rev.

Postmaster Colin M. Selph, when din- ing at Mission Inn, Grand and Mag- nolia avenuer with two other men, last evening, listened to several selections of music by the orchestra, and then asked the leader to have “The Star-Spangied Banner” played. The leader, according to Selph, replied that he had orders not to play “The Star-Spangled Banner,” because, as he explained. it would “make people stand up too oftén.”’ Selph spoke to Carl Anschuetz, pro- prietor of the Inn, and he ordered the playing of “The Star-Spangled Ban- ner.”". Then, Selph declares, the orches- tra played the patriotic selection seven times, continuing so long that several who had stood at first sat down before the last of the repetitions. Selph then complained to Anschuetz of the way in which the order had been carried out, declaring that the musicians had made a joke of the patriotic music. “Then.” said Selph today, “I told him a fe things about patriotism. Others prezent applauded what I said. I looked for the leader, but he had stepped out. My f iends and I then left, without hav- ing eaten our dinner, and a half dozen others went with us.” Later, Selph said, he called Anschuetz by telephone and the proprietor said it was “all a mistake,”’ and asked that he sey nothing about the matter. Walter Anschuetz, the proprietor’s son, said to a reporter today that the orches- tra leader understood Selph to say, “Play it over,” and that this was the reason for the repetitions, to which the Postmaster later objected. Anschuetz said the playing of patriotic music was! s gfe GD) WN gee aN oS ail LOORA.

ARE DICKEY MEN National Committee Represerta- tive Investigates Situation and Recommends Change. Plans for a compete reorganization of the Republican party in Missouri, which include the ramoval of National Comrmitteeman Jacob L. Babler. and State Chairman T. W. Hukriede, have been under iscussion for several weeks. A representative of the Republican National Committee has made an inves- tigation of the Missouri situation and _recommended the removal of those re- sponsible for the conduct of the cam- paign last fall. The representative of the National Committee is understood tion that if the campaign had been ag- gressively conducted in Missduri las: fri!

The condition of Republican affairs will be uncovered in several suits now pending against the State Committee tor non-payment of tills. The Reputii- cans cpposed to the present management ot the party expect to show in the depositions to be taken in these suits that a lavish expenditure of money was made in an effort to elect Walter S. Dickey of Kansas City to the United States Senate, and that the interests of the State and national ticket were neglected. Worked Hard for Dickey. National Committeeman Babler and State Chairman Hukriede both belong to what is termed “the Dickey crowd.”’ It is charged by Republicans opposed to this crowd that the entire party organ- ization of the State has been used to foster the political ambitions of Dickey. T. W. Van Trump of Kansas Citiy, who was Dickey’s campaign manager last year, occupied an office in Republican headquarters last fall, and it is charged by the anti-Dickey crowd that he dom- inated the State organization, and used it to advance Dickey's cause. Charges will also be made that Babler and Hukriede “laid down" on the con- test filed by former Judge against Frederick D. Gardner. Some of the Republican leaders declare that in consideration of the withdrawal of their Support from the contest, Babler and Hukriede expected to be able to con trol the appointment of Republican members of State boards. It has become known that one reason why the Stifel-Howe-Koeln faction sup- ported Mayor Kiel in the primary elec- tion last spring was to win his support, and the support of his followers away from Babler and Hukriede in the State organization. Mayor Kiel lined up with Babler and Hukriede last year in the fisht to nominate John EB. Swanger of ®4§atia for Governor. The anti-Dickey crowd conceived the idea that’ a cor- tinuation of the fight on Kiel would cause the Mayor's crowd to retain its alignment with Babler, Dickey and Huk- riede, and enable the Dickey influence to continue in control of the State or- ganization. The nomination of Dickey for United States Senator last year was expected to reeult in a thorough organization of the State and a very large campaign fund. Dickey is a millionaire sewer pipe man-. ufacturer in Kansas City, and he has been active in politics for many years. The reports of the treasurer of the Re-, publican State Committee do not show that Dickey made any big contribttion to the fund. It is said that he raised a considerable sum of money among eastern manufacturers. It was believed also that his influence would be suffi- cient to get a very large contribution from the Republican National Commit- tee. The Republicans raised a campaign fund of $90,000 and spen: about $5000 more than that. Meeting Likely in September. The fight to remove Hukriede will come at the next meeting of the Re- publican State Committee. Hukriede has the power to postpone the fight by re- fusing to call the committee together. The anti-Dickey crowd wil! try to have @ meeting of the committee in Septem ber, but they may not get it until Jan- uary. Process servers are watching for Huk- riede and Van Trump in St. Louis fo ‘gerve them with subpoenas to give their depositions in the suit of the Manufac- turers’ Printing Company against the committee.

Were Nearly Exhausted When This Country Joined Them. LONDON, July 2.—Moving in the Jiouse of Commons a vote of credit for £650,000,000, ($3,250,000,(00) the largest war credit yet asked for, and bringing Great Britain’s expenditure ‘o the co- lossal total of £5,292,000,000, ($26,460,000, - (60) Andrew Bonar Law, Chancellor of the Exchequer, gave startling figures of the amazing growth of Great Britain's financial burden in the world war, and emphasized from the financial view- point the great impcrtance of the United States entering the v2 It gave as- furance, he said, that the allies would not be deprived of victory through lack of money. The House was astonished to learn that Great Britatn’s advances to the allies and dominions had reached the huge total of mors than_ £1,000,000,000, $5,000,000,000.) The Cally was expendi ture, although it shows a substantia] improvement over the figures given on May 9, when Bonar Law asked for the ast war credit, sti'l approaches $35,- 000,000, daily and exceeds the budget estimate by $5,000,090 daily, but com- paring with the last 77 days with the first 35 days of the financial year, the expenciture showed a reduction of %.,- 600,000 daily. One increase in army ex- penditure was due to the fact that casualties were lower than last year. Advances to Allies Expregrsing his disappointment at the necessity of such larze advances to the allies, the Chancellor referred to the British standpoint >f unselfish gener- osity in regarding the whole entente al- lied cause as one, and explained that the cost of all the «supplies for the al- lies produced in Great Britain during the war had been defrayed by England, and that previous to the entarnce of America into the war much of the sup- Plies to the allies produced abroad also had been paid for in England. Ih an interesting reference to United States, Bonar Law said: “When America entered the struggle we realized that a great change had come over the allies’ financial strength. President Wilson was slow, and, in my fudgment, rightly slow, in bringing his country to the voriex of this terrible war, but, having come in, he has shown by his speeches in the cleareat way that he is determined to throw the whole weight of ths nation he heads into the scale. I am sure that, although ‘ naturally it takes time to make the fi- nancial arrangement needful in a war like this, the President and the greut nation he represems will deal in this matter with the same gpirit of generos- ity, or rather, or realization of wha‘ the whole issue means—that has been shown by England, and that we can rely on receiving in the United States resources which are necessary to pay for supplies of all kinds required by the allies in America. “Indeed, it is ap open secret that we spent so freely of our resources that those available in America had become nearly exhausted when our great ally entered the struggle, and, obviously the extent to which supplies of all kinds can be obtained in the United State« will depend.largely on the eabilityefor I am sure of the good will—of the American Government to meet the de- mands that will be made upon it by the allies.’’ Saloniki Expedition Discussed. After Reginald McKenna, forme: Chancellor of the Exchequer, spoke, warning the Government of the abso- lute necessity of curtailing all unneces- sary expenditure to prevent the dan- gerous inflation of prices, the main feature of the general debate was strong criticisms of John Dillon and others of the Saloniki expedition. Dil- lon, referring to rumors that Servia was intending to make a separate peace with Austria, and demanding that that Government say whether Servia was to be deserted, declared that. the British army in Saloniki had been demoralized by 18 months of inaction in pestilentia] surroundings. Lord Robert Cecil, Minister of Block- ade, replying, characterized Dillon's charges as being absolutely untrue. He said there was no intention whatever of receding from the pledges for the full restoration of and reparation for Ser- via. While declining to reveal the Gov- ernment’s plans, he said he would re- state its war aims: “Austria is not our chief enemy. Ger- many is, and must be, our chief enemy. Tl.» broad principles we are fighting for are these: First, that we should s: by our allies; second, we are fighting for a stable settlement, for a sound and satisfactory peace; not a conquest or mere domination, but on some national] principle. as far as might be, which would secure that settlement. When arrived at, it should be free from change and alteration in the future. “Personally, I wish to see how far President Wilson's proposals can be made practicable for barriers against future wars. The Government's desire for the destruction of German militar- ism is only part of its general purpose to secure a lasting peace. It desires it only because it is the greatest danger to the future peace of Europe.” The war tredit was agreed to and the House adjourned the NO DEPOSI?

ST LOUIS POST-DISPATCH he Cards Had Lots of Sp CaPRAmeE LUANELOUAGECDO EON ROMEO OLDCHDOUEUOEHOELEVEDOTUACDE DEA EGA EeRONGENROLEPEESEULON ENETEOOUEICOTgerCG Cards Must Win 3 of Every _ 4 Games, to Land Pennant; Giants Outpacing All Rivals Hug’s Men, Due Home Tomorrow Morning, Won 15 and Lost 10) Contests on the Road—Team Has Been Considerably Strengthened Sifice It Left. RESIDENT BRANCH RICKEY of the Cardinals, despite the fact that the club is today nine full games behind the pace-making Giants, refuses to have his team counted out of the struggle, as far as the pennant is concerned. But to overtake those Prussians of John McGraw the Cardinals’ task is just about as big as the one the Boston Braves shouldered—and maae good at— in 1914. On the road trip which Huggins’ | men completed with the 3—0 victory over Grover Alexander yesterday, ths club won 15 games and lost ly, @ winning percentage of 600. ‘This jaunt started on June 29 in Chicago. But during this same period the Giants were traveling at even a faster gait. The Prussians counted 17 vic- tories in 23 starts, a percentage cf 739. The Cardinals, however, must be given a slight edge, as they were un- der the handicap of playing on alien soil, while the Giants were on their home lot. Huggins’ band started the road en- gagement by winning two out of three from the Cubs: this was _ followed by five straight over the Pirates, tnen they dropped four in a row to the Giants: won the odd tilt in five from Boston; lost a 2—1 decision to the 5- perbas and finished with four out of nve from the Phillies, a club from whic! previously they had captured only one out of six. Cards Won 4 Series, Lost 2. This shows that the Cardinals won four series and lost two. McGraw’s men lost only one and won five. The en- gagement in which they were downed was against the Cincinnati Reds, the men of Matty taking the odd tilt in five. In the games with the Fast, the Cardi- nals won eight and tost nine, while the Jiants had a record of 12—4, .750, against the Western outfits On July 2%, 1914, the Braves were in fourth place with a mark of 40-4, .475, 11 games behind the Giants, but they came through and won the pennant by landing 54 of their remaining 69 games, a winning percentage of .783. Three years ago today the Cards were in third place, just as they are today, but they tod only four and cne-half lensths oe- ind. Should McGraw's men continue thelr present pace for their remaining 74 gxames, in other words win 49 and lose 25, they would wind up with 102—52, .662. In erder to even tie them the Cardi- nals, who have played eight more games to date, would have to win fF and lose only 12, a percentage of .818. Even if the Prussians dr~o to a 00 gait for the remainder o% the campaign, Huggins’ band, in order to come out ahead, would have to do het- ter than win three out of every .our games played. If the Giants travel at .600, in Oc- tober they would have a mark of 98—56 .636. The Cards today have 48—49 and in order to equal this would have to win 50 of the remain- ing 66 games, a mark of .768. This is not quite as fast a gait as the Rraves put on in winning the 1914 championship. ds’ Home Average, .600. If the Cardinals are to do this they will have to pick up on their previous showings on the home loam, as in the intersectional series with the Eastern clubs calling the Cardinals won nine and lost six, a percentage of .600, the same as they owned on their road trip. Returning tomorrow to open a atand against the BRraves, the Knot Holers tackle every Fastern club and also the Reds of Cincinnati, playing their final game here Aug. 14. Twenty-one. con-| Cards’ Newest Pitcher Not Yet Ready to Make His Major League Bow RANCH RICKEY thinks that Sherdell, the southpaw pur- Chased from the Milwaukee club of the American Association, is one of the best prospects picked up in some time, although he believes the left-hander is not yet ripe for the major leagues and probably will have to be farmed out for a year. ““Sherdell is only 19 years old and is serving his first season in Class AA baseball,”’ said Rickey yester- day. “He has a great cross-fire de- livery, and while I do not think he 18 ready for the majors, I am going to watch his work for the remain- der of the season very closely as I think he is going to develop into a great pitcher.’’ The left-hander has been twirling great ball for a tail-end club. Rickey also stated that he had several other trades on, but re- fused to make known what play- ers he is after. tests will be played in the stand at home, one postponed game with each, the Phillies and Superbas being left over. The home schedule is as follows: Boston—July 26, 27, 28, 29. Philadelphia—July 30, 31, Aug. I1—2. (Also one postponed game,) Brooklyn—Aug. 3, 4, 5,4. ‘(Also one postponed game.) New York—Aug. 8, 9, 10, U1, Cincinnati—12, 13, 14. Bill Doak, the spitballer, who made a fair record on the recent road trip, will probably hurl the opening eame against the Braves tomorrow. Lee eadows, Leon Ames and Oscar Horstman also pitched: good ball on the recent trip. Gene Packard, while not used often, came through wit! some sterling ball, while Marvin Goodwin, the new righthander, euc- ceeded fairly the one time he started. Goodwin Now a Regular. Rickey announces that Goodwin will be given his regular turn on the hill, from now on, and St. Louls fans will see him in action shortly after the club opens its home stand. On the road the Cardinal pitchers had the following records: Hiorst-- man, 3—0; Meadows, 4—1; Doak, 3—3; Packard, 2—2, and Ames, 3-—4. Rogers Hornsby and Walton Cruise, however, have proven the real stars. These two have driven in most of the team’s runs, both hitting well over .300. The addition of ‘‘Red’’ Smyth, the St. Louis boy, who has been playing in the outfield, also has helped the club, thus enabling Huggins to bench Tommy Long, who hasn't been hitting. Gene Paulette and Douglas Baird, the other new members of the team, also made a great showing. It was Paulette’s single yesterday that sent in the first run and started Alexander on the road to ruin. Paulette also won a game in Boston with a timely bingle. Tomorrow will be Fifth Regiment day at Cardinal Field ard a good crowd is expected. oe ———— i aadows Pitches 4-Hit Game; Cards Flatten Alexander Walton Cruise Loses League Lead When He Fails to Hit Safely in Two Days. PHILADELPHIA, July 25.—Even Gro- ver Cleveland Alexander had no terrors for the on-rushing Cardinals yesterday. With second place in sight they bumped the great Alex hard and won easily, 3 to 0, when Lee Meadows blanked the Phils with four hits. A most untimely tenth-inning victory for the pennant-made Reds, at the ex- pense of the tottering Dodgers, was al! that prevented Hug’s band from mov- ing into second place. The Cardinals, Thursday, will open a long stand on the home grounds in the best shape they have been at any time this season. The pitchers showed to good advantage in Philly and the club hit the ball hard, garnering a total of §) hits for 70 bases in the ies contests with the Moran men. The Cardinals are fighting furiously these days. They refuse to admit that they are out of the pennant race. With aimost half the season remaining they figure they have a chance for the flag, if the Giants run into a slump. Red Smyth Making Good. Red Smyth looks more like the real goods as a lead-off man than any other athlete Hug has tried at the top of the batting arcer thus far. Ne will stay there as long as the team continues to win. “Red” is not a long hitter, nor does he shape up as a .300 swatter, but he is a good waiter and has all kinds of pep and brains on the bases. Cruise hase gone hitiess for two days.

The recent rains have caused a delay in the completion of the Triple A cham- pionship tennis tournament, which have been in progress for orver a month. Ef- forts, however, will be made to com- plete the finals round by Sunday. Although he has probably been en- gaged in more outside tournament matches than any other racquet star in the city, Theodore Drewes, Centra] States champion, is ready, waiting to meet an opponent in the finals. Who- ever his opponent may be is two brack- ets behind. Hoerr must meet Josties for right to play Reppert in the semi-finals. Inasmuch as Hoerr, Jostices, or Rep- pert meets the Municipal] graduate in the title round, a zood match is assured. Reppert and Gautier are ahead of time in the doubles tournament, two other matches being necessary before the other finalists are selected. Jones and Hoerr play Godlove and Albers, the winners meeting Jostices and Drewes in the semi-finals. Tennis Stars Idle. The schedule of the St. Louts Teonnis Asso- ciation interclub matches for tkis Saturday is hardiv an attractive one.

Column + 66Q™HICK’’ EVANS, who gets more out of golf without officially ‘‘capital- izing his reputation’’ than probably any other amateur player in the , world, appears to have ‘‘ pulled’ “Chick” elected to remain out of the Western Amateur Golf Champion- ship tourney, instead of playing through and meeting Francis Ouimet., thereby taking advantage of an op- portunity to settle old scores in his own favor. Judging by the play in the Western tourney, experts have agreed that Evans would have mussed up the turf with Ouimet, who was not up to top form, by any means. . . » The Perfect Alibi. J * view of the fact that Chick, stung by Eastern criticism, some months previously had challenged Ouimet to a private match, just to prove his superiority, his failure to enter the Western attracted surpris- ingly little comment. This was due to two causes: (1) Evans was doing laudable work raising money for the Red Cross by exhibition play. (2) Evans, last fall, had an- nounced that he was “through with the Western,” having tired after four victories.

This much is certain—that when the senior 100-yard dash is run off here Sept. 1, the sprinter who beats one of two St. Louis boys will have a crand chance to be the United States titic holder. The two Mound City runners re. ferred to are Mahl of the Columbian A. C., and Scholz, of Missouri Uni- versity. Mahl last year proved his so shaping a Yale Sloan on the golfing world. mettle. He is now, on the strength of victories here, in Chicago and else- where entitled to rank with Loomis, Ward and others whom he has beaten as often as they have defeated him. He consistently runs the 100 yards in 10 seconds, which means he can do 94-5 seconds with exceptional com- petition Mahl has beaten Scholz events; but the Missouri University man proved himself the greatest Midwest college sprinter, this spring. when he won the dash in both the Missouri Valley and Big Nine con- ference meets. In fact, these two men are 80 good that it is not unreasonable to presume they may both be found in the final heat of the championship. . in indoor * * National Stars to Shine Here. OLAND HOERR of the St. Louis District Tennis Association, has received word from George dee of the National headquarters, that six tennis players of high rank have beea asked to exhibit in St. Louis at the Triple A courts, Forest Park, in Au- gust. Four of the six have accepted and two others will be added. The certainties are: William M. Johnston, National championship and 2 ranking player last year. Harold Throckmorton, onc of the first 10 last year and the best of the younger players. Miss Mary Browne, former Na- tional woman champion. Miss Molla Bjurstedt, national woman champion for the past two years. To this quartet mav be added Karl Behr, former member of the Davis Cup team, and Fred Alexander, for- mer champion and one-time Davis Cup star. former No, Test Our Local HIS array is even more brilliant than that which appeared here two seasons ago when McLoughlin. Johnston, Irving Wright, Griffin and Miss Bjurstedt made up the party. The exhibition will not be com- plete, however, unless the visiting players appear in one or more match- es against picked local men, just to give us an idea cf how good our ta!- ent mav be-—or how bad, perhaps. A corsiderable improvement among the younger players was noted after the trip of the big folks, last time, and we'd like to judge if the udvance was material. Triple A's management, which raised the $500 Red Cross guarantee needed to bring the ranking players here, deserves some kind words for its enterprise. Triple A is so situated that it cannot charge admission, making guarantees atrictly a matter of digging into the treasury or of pdivate generosity. Talent. , teat snicsiatoale ti scien oa nes } Harvard’s Anti-Football Stand to Be Attacked by BOSTON, July 2%.—An assault on the Harvard football policy for 1917 will be one of the outstanding items at the convention of college athletic represen- tatives to be held in Washington Aug. 2. The smaller fry, who are insistent on keeping the gridirons occupied this au- tumn, are even now sharpening their knives to cut deeply into the Harvard hide. From over the broad sweep of the country the definite action of the Har- vard athletic board in cancelling its 1917 varsity schedule has been met with cut- ting comment. It is conceded that the action of the university in eliminating organized sport on account of the war will have a telling effect, and just the effect that the sport boomers, with “business as usual’’ as their slogan, do not want it to have. “Big Three’ Take Same Stand. Harvard will not have to sustain any burden of proof when its delegate speaks at the conclave of college authorities. Its decision is an individual matter and the crimson is not responsible to any ally or group of colleges. It is to be expected that Princeton, Yale and some other powerful colleges will take much the same attitude that Harvard has taken, thereby making themaelves a prey for orators from the opposite camp to tackle President Wilson's now famous pro- Minor Universities ) nunciamento in favor of sports at col- leges during war time will be the back- bone of the radicals’ arguments. With the President backing their program, they will ask what right Harvard or any other collewe has to back down from a season of football and thereby throw the 1917 menu of sport into the discard. The complaint of the ailied sport critics ‘s that the crimson is not game enough to take a chance on a lean yoar of sport The as- sumption is that Harvard foresees an wun- profitable season and had rather pass up the football games altogether than risk losing monev at the box office. Harvard ‘“‘Lacks Material.’’ 42 usual, Harvard will not answer the critics, but will let its action stand or top- ple on its merits. The fact is, football can- continued at Cambridge this fal., urgent President Wilson's words may have been It is quite proper for the President to speak for a continuation of college athietics, but @ complete iack of ath- letes will shatter all the good intentions in the wor'!d. The crimson will be without any of its fret-class football stock this fall,. and from the experience with baseball and crew worx last spring. the Harvard authorities know that there ia little chance for arousing a new spirit among untried recruits In this in- stance. they hold, the wise course is to drop football now rather than test a theory thet is sure to fail anyway.

By Robert Edgren. Copyrighted. 1917, by the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 25.—Benny Leon- ard and Johnny Kilbane meet tonight at Shibe Park, Philadelphia. The fight will be held in a ring erected in the middle of the ball park, with rows of boxes surrounding the ring, and the great tiers of seats in the grandstand filled with spectators. It will be one of the most spectacular affairs of the season. The purse is $20,000, of which each fighter will receive $10,000. This is the biggest money ever paid for a Six-round decisionless bout in Phila- delphia. well satisfied is shown by the report that they expect to make more than the fighters. A very unusual thing. Probably no bout ever created such interest in Quakertown before—at least no bout since Battling Nelson and Terry McGovern fought. Benny Leonard is fully as popular in Phila- delphia as he is at home in New York. He has done much of his best fighting in Phillie. He has always made good there and the Philadel- phians like his clean, forceful fight- ing style. Leonard Taking Chances. Leonard expects to get Johnny's goat early in the fight. Benny can’t sea a featherweight standing up to the light- weight champion. But Kilbane won't be exactly a feath- erweight. He'll be as near the i33 pounds as_ possible The required weights are 133 pounds at 8 o'clock, which is practically ringside. Kilbane will have a chance to win a title, as he will be a lightweight. Leor- ard can’t win the featherweight title, even if he knocks Johnny kicking in the first round, as Benny isn’t a feather- weight. So Benny is taking all the real risks in this fight. He has a chance to lose a world’s championship worth many thousands of dollars. If Kilbane is beat- en he can smile and say: “Oh, well, I was fighting out of my class. I’m atill feather champion.’’ Then he can train down jo the feather class again and wive oo Rng lightweight aspirations for a while. Leonard to Box at Plattsburg. After the Kilbane fight Benny will come for a short rest and then go to Plattsburg to do some boxing for the “rookies” in the big officers’ training camp, at the request of Maj. Reginald Harlow. : . When you see a guy shiver it may be because he’s in the draft. Last Night’s Fights } Johnny Dundee of New York, outpointed Tommy Tuohy of Pat- erson, N. J., in every round of a 10-round bout at New York, Dundee weighed 128% pounds and Tuohy 131. George Chip, former middle- weight champion, won a decision from Johnny Howard of Baronne, N.

Rickey’s contemplated movements are quite comprehensive in plan and scope, and embrace many important and grati- fying betterments for the propagation of the Cardinal Idea, among which may be mentioned a new grand stand ani a pennant. ‘ . * Big Ed Walsh is going to try to pull a “comeback” with the Boston Braves. While Ed is coming back it might be a good idea for him to bring the Braves along with him. The one veteran twirler who doesn’t bother about a “comeback” is Eddie Plank. Eddie has never been away. “Lefty’’ Hamilton is still leading the American League in batting while Steele and Prendergast are showing the way in the National. Who said pitchers couldn't bat? Jack Barry says there is no such thine as the “intentional bean ball.’ Jack was beaned 23 times last season and ought to know what he is talking about. a + « Jack's 23 bases by- the bean routo is a major league record. And it’s a record he is welcome to as far as the rest of ‘em are concerned. Oh, Yes. FAN suggests that the Cardinals rent Sportsman's Park for their coming series wit* the Eastern clubs. No doubt Mr. Ball would be as tickled with such an arrangement as King George would be to have his Cousin Bill come across th channel an‘4 fight his remaining battles on En- glish soil. If there isn any one thing that would tickle Phil Ball pink, it vrould be to see Marvin Goodwin performing at Sportsman’s Park in a Cardinal uniform. ” + * Paddy Livingston went to Mil- waukee under protest and tumbled headlong into a managerial berth the minute he arrived. From a warmup catcher to manager of a Class A A., ball team is considerable of a jump for an old athlete like Paddy. Some people are born lucky. Others have it thrust upon ‘em.

COAST TO SEND A TEAM Far West Will Have Strong Quota in National Cham- pionship Track Games. Robert I. Simpson, world’s cham- pion hurdler, who was graduated from the University of Missonri, last month, will compete in the National Amateur Athletic Union track and field cham- pionships at Francis Field, September l and 3. According to a letter from Henry F. Schulte, coach of the Missouri U. foot- ball and track team and the man who aided Bob in developing from a h school star to an international title- holder, the Tiger star has consented to defend his laurels. Simpson is now engaged in farm ap- praisement work, and has applied for admission to the officers’ training camp at Fort Riley. As to training, Simpson is always in condition and since start- ing his athletic career has never brok- en training. Two days’ practice over the obstacles would put_-him in cham- pionship form. Should he compete here, Sim , be- sides entering the hurdles, wil we for the allround championship. More than one coach has stamped him as the world’s model athlete. Hie would easily win both hurdles, has won the broad jump at the Big Nine and Valley meets, has placed in the high jump at the Con- ference games, was a consistent winner for Missouri in the sprints, was anchor man on the Tiger four in the mile relay at Pennsylvania games, and is a weight man of no mean ability. Sprinter Scholz Coming. Schulte also writes that Jack Scholz, Missouri's ‘‘firet’’ sprinter and a for- mer Soldan High youth, will wear the gold and black in the St. Louis games. Scholz won the Big Nine and Valley Conference 10-yard dashes and placed in the 220 races. Schulte writes: I look for the Dutchman to per form creditably in your town. He has done even time in the 10 in his last five races, which is as good as any man in the country can do. In the Western Conference games at Chicago, two watches caught him in :09 4-5, which shows that he can do it in one step better than :10. This being the case, St. Louis will have two of the chief contenders itn the sprints, Irwin Mahl and Jack Scholz. The high hurdle race will be one of the features of the games, if Simpson comes, as word from Robert 8. Weaver, president of the Pacific Coast Assocta- tion of the A. A. U., ts to the effect that Fred Kelly and Earl Thompson, widely reputed hurdlers, will be includ- ed in the California delegation to the local meet. Kelly, Thompson, Simpson and Loomis were the final contenders for the hurdles championship at New- ark last year, and according to a local sportsman who saw the event, pro- duced a wonderful race. Far West Stars to Enter. Other Western luminaries add to the attractiveness of the local games are: Roy Bagnard, weights; Ray Atkinson, who has run the quarter mile in :493-5 and the half in 1:55; Merideth House, credited with :233-5 in the low hurdles: Luther Nichols, owner of 76- inch mark in the high Jump, and a 12- foot 8-inch ascension fh the pole vault; and W. Richardson, champion hammer thrower of the Pacific Coast. These men will all represent the Los Angeles A. GC. Undoubtedly San Francisco will have a delegation of no lesser size. Mayor on Games Committee. A meeting of the Executive Commit- tee will be held at noon today and defi- nite plans for the + ‘ertisement of the games, both nationally and local, will be definitely outlined. The committee ts composed of Mayor Kiel, President T. G Watts Jr. of the Western A. A. U., representatives from the St. Louis Cross, Chamber of Commerce, United Railway, Associated Retailers, Missouri Athleteic Association, and the Conven- tion Bureau. Financial Worries End. At a meeting yesterday of BB sports- men interested in the holding of the games, the final lap of the drive for $5000, which amount fs necessary for the holding of the games, was e ed: and now all financial worries of the W. A. A. U. heads are a thing of the past. Features for the meet and plans of an advertising propaganda were dis- cussed, in order that President Watts might present them at the Executive Committee meeting today. DUNDEE OUTCLASSES FOE.

HUTCHINSON. lAeutenant-Colonel of the Twenty- firat New York Infantry. CHAPTER XIV. The lesson of the soldier as to caring for his wounded comrade in battle is ethe most severe that the soldier ever has to learn. The lesson is that every soldier counta —s0 long as he is a military unit firings a rifle or helping to fire a machine gun or a field riece. Therefore, a so'dier struck dor n is a soldier lost to the fight. And this soldier's companion, ii he turns from the fight tv help his friend, makes two soldiers stricken from the list of effectives. The sold‘er, therefore, who stanches a wound or stops to offer a drink frorn his canteen does the enemy as great a favor as if the enemy nad shot him, as well as his companion. The soldier's duty therefore in bat- tle is a grim one—as grim as the dutv of passenger ships that must procee:l in the submarine zone regardless of all calls for help from open boats. It is to keep fighting. To care for the wounded man Government other provisions, so that a fighting line may sweep on regardless of its losses as it goes. The first of these provisions is the first aid pack. This little pack is issued io every soldier. hooks by which the it can be attached to the soldier's belt. The reason for this is that it is meant to be as handy to get at as the soldier’s ammunition. Must Care for Himeetlf, Once he is wounded, the soldier for a eshort time must count on taking care of himself. So if the wound is in a leg or an arm he may open his first-aid pack- nge and stop the flow of blood himse'f. Or another wounded man nearby may help him. Scon a member of the sanitary per- fonnel will be along to drag the wounda- ed man to shelter, to wrap his wound with an adequate field dressing, and prepare thie soldier for transportation to the hospital in the rear. But at the first moment of shock the soldier may be “on his own,’ as the trench fighters put it in France. And he may see his companions go sweep ing past him in the charge. It is not a moment to give up. Experience has shown that the soldier who lies quietly where he falls for eight, 10 or even 24 hours, with the flow of blood stopped by his first aid bandage, recovers in hospital in a great majority of cases. As the soldier pulls the first-aid pack free from his belt he finds inside the outer. packing two gauze bandages in side of Which are two attached com- —_—— ‘ nas mide other plans and) It is provided with -steel | ee Each one of these bandages from the ends to the middle the compress can be applied oeing contaminated by soiled preeses. is rolled sO that without hands. Each bandage is wrepped separately in a paraffin paper so that it must re- main in a sanitary condition until used. First Aid and Then Wait. After the soldier has obtained his bandages, which are ample in size to stop the flow from any usual wound. he turns his attention to a metal box in which he finds two safety pins, place! there to keep them sterilized and fre: from rust. He obtains them by pulling a ring which opens the box. It is the soldier's business to becore familiar with all forms of putting on bandages so that he can help himself when ‘“‘on his own" to the best advan- tage. The soldier should not try to wash his own wound. Experi ace has shown that it does not pay. He should not try to treat the wound in any way except to cut away enough clothing to expose it ) properly for barflaging. The soldier should realize that it is better to allow any germs that may have ent.ced the wound to remain ther: until the + irgeons attend to it, rather than take the risk of introducing movie germs by an insanitary field washing. After the bandage is once in place and te flow of biood stopped the soldier must not imagine that because his com- rades apparently do not care for him no- body cares. Twenty-four enlisted men and four of- ficers of his regiment make up the sani- tary personne!, and their business is to bear him off the fieid. If he finds he can walk or crawl! to the rear, ther he should do that, as it makes it unneces- sary for others to expose themselves. Field Hospital Service. If he is so badly wounded that he cannot walk or crawl, the soldier's busi- ness is to lie quiet and as comfortabiy as*he can. The stretcher-bearers wil! be along to drag him, carry him over a mar.’s back, or carry him on a stretcher to safety. And it is provided that all of this work shall be done as speedily as pos- sible. The men of the sanitary force ure not ‘‘slackers’’ afraid to go under fire. as much as the men with rifles are. Their hospitals are mere tent flaps, pitched as close as possible to the ac- tual scene of conflict. They are not equipped very completely to care for the wounded. They are mere links in the chain of medical service by which the wounded man is passed back to a base hospital, given the best trent ME —_ 7 > a 0 | a — i a ee ee ee — — ae ‘ i ordinary any Vocalion. “I Never Before Heard Phonograph Music Like That” That's what nine out of ten sav when they hear-the Vocalion. of the usual phonograph twang.

The only effort there is to prepare the wounded man for the ambulance ride to the permanent hos- pital farther back. The soldier may lie on the ground in the field hospital. Cots are too bothersome to move at the speed it is planned to keep this type of hos- pital moving, if the battle formation requires it. Beef tea is the limit of the menu and a drink of that may cure the wcunded man’s thiret as he is- started for the rear. The soldier does not have to about things in his old command after he has dropped from a wound. He is at once gfubtracted from the list “rifles’’ for action, and after that tame drops from the active roll. He transferred to the medical division, and his sole responsibility from then on un- til he formally rejoins his command is to the surgeons and the chief surgeon in charg of réstoring him to health and rhysical soundness. In the matter of caring for the sick and wounded medical science has made Gigantic strides in the last few years. therefore. neither the soldier nor his folksx at home should fear that a wound means death. The vast majority © sol- diers who survive a wound long enough to apply first aid recover in the hos- pitals.

WASHINGTON, July %.—Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachuretts, wanking Republican member of the For- eign Relations Committee, declared in the Senate yesterday afternoon that it would be nothing short of murder to send men to France merely to restore the status quo before the war. He made this statement after Senato Swanson of Virginia had declared that any peace “gn the terms proposed in the new German Chancellor’s speech would be entirely out of the question and that it was useless to talk of peace until the \ Imperial German Government was | crushed. ‘The peace that the German Chancel- lor talks about is the peace that would be an absolute defeat,"’ said Lodge. ‘If we should accept such a peace as that it would be nothing short of murder to send our soldiers to the front, and rob- bery to take the money of our people to’ leave this situation in status quo antebellum. If we are not in this war to secure our safety in the future and tc try to secure the liberty and de- mocracy of the world by guarantees that are unmistakable then we ought never to have entered into it at all.” SAYS MAN KNOCKED HER DOWN Modiste Has Customer’s Husband Ar- reated on Assault Charge.

April 10, 1907. a LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE Post-Dispatch Draft News. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. After reading an article in the “Final Edition” of one of your esteemed coftem- poraries, belittling your efforts in connec- tion with the national army draft, I am prompted to commend your efforts in this direction, What St. Louis newspaper succeeded in putting a list of the new draft numbers before the public first? My question needs no answer. It was the St. Louis Post-Dis- patch. The printing of the new numbers in your paper saved me, as an individual, considerable time and trouble. What did the city at large profit by it? I’m afraid it would be very hard to calculate. The article I refer to above torders on journalism of a well Known hue, which ‘eally ought not be named here. I make haste to say that I don't believe the Post- Dispatch will enter further into a contro- versy of this nature. I'll rely on this news printed in your paper in preference to any other ‘“‘daily’’ and to paraphrase the words of a well-known song, “Ther.’s a Hundred Thousand Others Like Me.” “ J. M. MALECEK. . Riots. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. It is said that the riot in East St. Louis Was caused by the $6 a day wage. Do fair wages produce riots in Detroit? Industrial disturbances are caused by penury. A $5 a day wage for all useful toil would make the wings of peace hover over this land. SIDNEY AVERILL Packing House Odors. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Some time past the Civic League an- nounced that they had arranged with the packing houses to install odor-destroying devices so that St. Louis would in the fu- ture be free from the stench that their plants make. The devices have either never been installed or they had gone on strike on Wednesday the 18th inst. Why should it be necessary for the Civic League or any other privately main- tained organization to abate this nuisance? Why does not our Municipal legal depart- ment enjoin these plants from operating until efficient devices’ that will eliminate nauseating odors are installed? | KRONIK KICKER, a ee ee A Watchman’s Complaint. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Seeing that in nearly all lines of labor the eight-lour day and five and one-half and six days a week prevail, | want to ask why are watchmen worked every day fn the year? They have no rest whatever and no time to be with their families. Isn't it enough to dishearten a man and make him commit a crime? Why don’t firms who employ watchmen have a ‘sub- stitute one day a week to give the reg- ular watchman a rest? There are enough g00d watchmen with references out of work who would like to work One or more days a week as substitutes. Another thing. Watchmen should have a living wage—$75 per month at least— to meet the high cost of living—food, rent, clothes, insurance, etc. E. B. B. Missouri’s Misrepresentatives. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The State of Missouri should feel proud of her United States Senators. Don’t you think it is time the people took a hand in the food question? READER. As to Changing That Name. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I read an amusing letter in your “peo- ple’s” column of July 18, coming from Mr. Walton of New York City, wherein he de- cries the coupling of East St. Bouis with St. Louis, or rather the mistaken idea of the cities being the same. He doesn't want his birthplace or the residing place of his family and friends so misrepresented. Wonder why he is so far away from that birthplace? Dear Mr. Walton, you do not hate the misrepresentation near as badly as the 93,000 natives of East St. Louis do. and it has been our cry at all times that East St. Louis would be better off a thou- sand fold were it in a position to be en- tirely foreign to your wonderful St. Louis in name and every particular. THOMAS E. DUFFY. City Must Have Assurances. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I desire to express my protest against the repeal of the mill tax, or the granting of a 80-year franchise to the United Railways, as proposed by the conference committees, until the United Railways agrees to make some, at least of the extension of lines previously ordered by the Public Service Comission of the State. If the council ex- pects the city to make the sort of progress we will be proud of in the future gwenera- tions it must make provision for it now. We are justiy proud of many features of our etreet car service; but let the counci! show a proper independence of the techni- — and etand for progress in this mat- a &. P. WILKES. . HOW NOT TO MAKE WAR. The President properly interpreted the Senate amendment to the food-control bill creating a congressional joint committee on the conduct of the war as signifying a lack of confidence in him. He was right in condemning it as a blunder which might have disastrous effects on the con- duct of the war. , His reference to the vicious consequences of a similar blunder of Congress in the Civil War, which embarrassed and hampered President Lin- coln, supports his objection with an unanswer- able argument—the argument of experience and nistory. As the Post-Dispatch said when the amend- ment was adopted, it would substitute debate and delay for decision and action. In war power and responsibility cannot be divided without dis- aster. A striking lesson of the dangers. of divided power in war work is the Goethals-Denman row which has delayed the ship-building pro- gram. Congress can at any time obtain complete infor- mation concerning war conduct and expenditures. But to put a committee of 10 Congressmen on the | backs of the President and his aids to question everything that is to be done would hang a stone on the neck of the nation when all its strength should be concentrated for quick and decisive action. The Senate has aimed this blow at the Presi- dent, without any reason except its own. silly fears, prejudices and overweening sense of im- portance. It wants to meddle, with the Presi- dent’s conduct of the war without taking over his responsibilities. It is an abothinable and menacing act, which the sober second thought of the Senate should voluntarily correct without pressure from the House. TEAM WORK ESSENTIAL. President Wilson’s firm method of putting an end to the regrettable Shipping Board squabble will meet with géneral approval. In accepting the resignation of Gen. Goethals and asking Chair- man Denman to resign he did just what the situ- ation demanded. Both are big men, high in the confidence of the people. They could have been of inestimable serv- ice if they had been able to compose their differ- ences and work together harmoniously. No man, however, is indispensable and it would be foolish to suppose that they cannot be replaced by others equally competent. To discharge one and retain the other would have been to leave embers of partisanship smoldering among their adherents who remained. It is to be hoped that other places can be found where each of these valuable men can serve the country as both are able and willing to do. In the meantime, with the cause of friction removed, the Shipping Board is free to give its undivided attention to its enormous task of providing the vessels. America and her allies so urgently re- quire. Team work is essential to the execution of such a program. = = " ~~ F- CONFESSIONS OF A LOBBY. One of the maay circulars issued by the press agent of the prohibition lobby at Washington makes the frank statement that there is no hope for bone-dry legislation except as a rider upon the food-control bill. “All reformers admit,” it is stated, “that there is not even a fighting chance to carry war prohibition in connection with any other bill.” In other words, prohibition is not presented on its merits and does not expect to win on its merits. ; “With any other bill’ it would not be able to effect so many alliances. It could not assist the representatives of the big food combines in hold- ing up legislation; it could not get a strangle hold on men honestly interested in food conservation; it could not maintain the pretense that prohibition is necessarily a war measure, and it could not, in the face of the financial needs of the Govern- ment, menace the whole national system of taxa- tion and revenue. The confession of the prohibition lobby that its enterprise standing by itself does not have a ghost of a show is typical of most of the activities of that well-paid organization. Its costly campaign of intimidation against Congress has been fairly successful thus far. The admission that it must win or lose with crooked business ought to be enlightening to some members who are not hope- lessly weak-kneed. = = MERCIER AND KERENSEY. The conflict in which so large a proportion of all world races is engaged must be entering on its last stage. Where are the great men which its tremendous ferment was expected to reveal? All conditions under the formula laid down for the disclosure of really commanding figures in the human family seem to have been supplied. Can we say that any men have appeared anywhere answering as closely to the description of the in- dispensable man as A. F. Kerensky and Cardinal Mercier? It may be that when we can see some things in the perspective we shall revise estimates. Men who, doing a heroic and useful work, have yet not seemed to rise above circumstances or go very far beyond the limit set by opportunity, may be aecorded a more brilliant rank than we now feel inclined to concede them. New figures more appealing than any we have yet seen may appear. But’ speaking in the present and accepting the definition that greatness has about it qualities that catch the imagination, that dazzle, that com- pel unquestioning acquiescence in,their claims to preeminence, who may be compared with the new name in Russia, with which we have just become familiar, or the name of older, more sor- rowful, associations in Belgium? The differences between the two personages and their careers show the disdain which greatness has for limitations, environment, fixed rules. The is a product of martyrdom. The second is a product of a nation in exaltation. Let us hope that from future events we suffer no disillusionment as to either. The world cannot have too many such examples of belief, of faith in the triumph of right, of capacity to endure, of inspiration, of willingness to sacrifice. i, i ——_-- ee Join the Home Guard and serve your country at home. ————— i i. UNDER OLD GLORY. The young men of America who are fortunate enough to be elected to go forth and join the ar- mies of democracy in this world-struggle against the soul-blighting tyranny of the Prussian plotters against the peace of mankind may do so with no misgivings. If ever men fought for home and the right, they will do so.» They are engaged in a great and righteous task and a splendid adventure. It is no nightmare of over-imaginative states- men that Germany set out to enslave the world, including the United States. German leaders saitl so themselves, before the war began. In 1885, Frederick Nietzsche wrote: ‘The time for petty politics is past; the next century will bring the struggle for the dominion of the world.’ In 1912, Gen. Bernhardi wrote. ‘‘We have fought in the last great wars for our national union and our po- sition among the powers of Europe; we must now decide whether we wish to develop into and main- tain a WORLD EMPIRE.” At Manilla, in 1898, the German Admiral von Goetzen, said, speaking of America: ‘‘We intend to take a billion or so of your dollars from New York and other places. The Monroe doctrine will be taken charge of by us, as we will then have to PUT YOU IN YOUR PLACE, and we will take charge of South America, as far as we wish to.” Germany has already ‘“‘taken charge of” Austria- Hungary, Turkey, Belgium, the north of France, Serbia, Bulgaria, part of Rumania and as much of the rest of Europe as she could grab. But it is her manner of conquering and governing the coun- tries that dare oppose her which has fired the blood of liberty-loving Americans and given them a reason for going forth, with the other. defend- ers of democracy, to rid the world of such metkods and ideals. In Belgium, in addition to the ‘‘calculated bar- barities” of the first invasion, Von Bissing, the German Governor, told Frederick C. Walcott, a New York banker, that it was the deliberate inten- tion. of the German Government to starve the helpless Belgians. Von Bissing said: “We have worked it all out on paper. The people would all be starved in from 30 to 60 days. Starvation is a compelling force: ‘It would be used to compel the Belgian men to go to Germany and replace the German work- men and permit the latter to go to the front.” It was used, in just that way. And today thou- sands of men'and women from Belgium and north- ern France are slaves in Germany. And, when Germany consented to the deportation and slaughter of more than a million Armenian women and children by her ally, Turkey,*she but acted on the advice of Klaus Wagner, in his book on War, published in 1906: ‘“‘Let us bravely organize great forced migrations of the inferior peoples.” “Bravely!”’ From what dictionary did this Prus- sian learm the significance of words? We go forth to rid the world of a spiritual and material plague that threatens every fireside. = = ‘ i i Gen. von Stein, the former German War Minis- ter, complains that many of his countrymen are growing faint hearted. If they are already losing heart what will be the result of another winter of war and a 40 per cent wheat and potato crop? — CRIMINAL AUTO DRIVING. A Coroner’s verdict of criminal carelessness in the case of a little girl killed by a motor truck at Sarah street and Easton avenue is sufficient basis for a thorough investigation by the authori- ties. If the facts are as appear in earlier accounts there seems to be ample ground for a prosecu- tion in the criminal courts. As the facts stand, the child had left the curb to board a street car. Instead of halting behind the waiting car, the driver advanced. The girl became confused, stepped in front of his machine and was crushed. If this be true, the chauffeur’s excuse that his victim’s excitement caused the accident is no ex- cuse at all. The law required him to bring his truck to a full stop. Older and cooler folk than a 12-year-old girl have become confused in such} circumstances. The law against passing cars tak- ing on-or discharging passengers was expressly framed for the protection of such as she. It is not a defense that this law is frequently disregarded by autoists nor is the responsibility avoided by the plea that the offending motor is under full “control.” Just that sort of contempt- uous disregard for traffic relations is responsible for so many accidents—the little girl’s death was the forty-fourth automobile fatality in St. Louis since Jan. 1. Punishment of reckless law break- ers in autos is imperative. = = * -~ - | NOT A SANE CELEBRATION. Mayor Kiel and the other executive committee- men of the Nation’s Birthday Association are en- titled to sympathy. They are in a worse fix than a man who had to pay for a dead horse. They are expected toway for last year’s fireworks. A dead horse is good for soap. But what are last year’s fireworks good for? And yet Mayor Kiel et a] are asked to pay $3450 for them. The purposes of the Nation’s Birthday Associa- tion were patriotic and commendable. It aimed to make the Fourth of July safe and sane. It succeeded in making the day safe, but the sanity of shooting off $3450 worth of skyrockets that had not been paid for may be doubted. That was what the association did. It bought its fireworks on credit and when night came, on the Fourth of July, 1916, they went out on Art Hill in Forest Park and shot them off, and the people gathered in the plain below and said “a-a-ah!” When the last rocket had sizzed its way aloft and spangled the sky with splendor, and a small boy had watched where the stick came down and had carried it away, the ‘stars came back and looked down on the Nation's Birthday Associa- tion with a bill for $3450 and nothing to pay it with.

An interesting development in the carrying out of this idea is found in the sand pictures of Walter A. Ward of New York City. Cardboards covered with colored pictures of animals are given to the children, together with bot- tles containing the variously colored sand. The children paint the body of the animals with glue, and then care- fully cover the colored portions of the animal bodies with the appropriate col- ors of sand. In this interesting way, while the chil- dren seem to be merely amusing them- selves they are gaining very definite in- siruction as to the names, coloring and physical characteristics of the different animals. Stories in connection with their habits and the countries where they may be found naturally accompany the pic- tures and enlarge the scope of the work. The rudiments of drawing and painting, as well as of natural history, are indi- rectly taught in this way.

At first it was only a name in the list of the miss- ing. Then a letter came from a comrade teiling of a splendid piece of heroism. There was a call to do a desperate deed of daring and the prodigal was the first to volunteer. “If I should be killed,”’ he said, using almost the very words others had used in speaking of him, “if I should be killed it will be no loss to anyone——not even to my mother.”’ And so he went, and he did not come back. .But the one act of a minute atcned for the failure of a lifetime.

Y.) genius has hit upon a plan which he says will help to solve the food proodlem. It may } conceivably increase mortality in the fish family many times over. He proposes to build a boat having an apjparatus at the bow and under the wa- ter somewhat like an inverted cowcatch. er. Going forth with the vessel at night, the inventor would turn searchlights upon the water before his ship. This, he believes, would attract all of the fish in the vicinity and he could then catch them in the scoop. By pulling a lever the fish would be carried into the ship on an automatic conveyor. The opera- tion of another lever would send them into a cold storage room or the canning department. But here is a description of the whole scheme in his own words: “Three large searchlignts are used to light the water 10 miles ahead of the boat. As our speed with the scoop in position will be about 10 miles an hour, it will give the fish a full hour to get into line. $30,COC Worth of Fish in Ore Catch If Inventors Plan Works “As the ray of light is very wide at the farther end and becomes constantly narrower as the bout approaches and as the width of the light is reduced s0 gradually as to permit all the fish in the vicinity to be drawn into the narrow Strip of water covered by the light di- rectly in front of the scoop, all the fish which have gathered will be thrown into confusion by the sudden disappearance of the light, and guided by the walls of the scoop to the speeding conveyor will be safely landed on deck. “The machine after the first hour's use of the light Will actually pick up all the fish from a strip two miles wide and 100 feet deep at the rate of 88 feet a minute. “Estimating 1000 pounds of fish a min- ute, the boat would pick up 30 tons in an hour, or 300 tons in a 10-hour night. At 5 cents a pound this would bring $30,000 for one night’s catch. Six of these ma- chines will keep the United States sup- plied with fish, fish oil, fish meals, fish Scrap and fertilizer.

If.we stand, say 100 feet from a wall, it appears to be a certain height, but, ff we zo 200 feet away, the apparent height dwindles to half, and at 400 feet this is « quarter, and so on. The apparent size of an object, therefore, varies in a regular proportion, according to the distance: and it is this knowledge, properly used, that enables ws to measure the size of the moon. Let us cut out a cardboard disk the size of a five-shilling piece, and stick this with a dab of gum or paste to the window pane when the moon is at the full. We then stand in such a position that the disk is between us and the moon, and we step back until the little round card exactly covers the outline of the moon, no more and no less. Now measure the distance from where we are standing to-the window, and it will be found that this is 1651-3 inches. Our geography book tells us that the moon is 288,840 miles from the earth, and at that distance it appears exactly the game size as the disk at 1651-8 inches from our 6ye. By reducing the dis- tance of the moon to inches, and divid- ing the result by 1651-3, we find that the moon tre 92,400,000 times bigger than the disk. To get the diameter of the moon, therefore, we measure the diam- eter of the disk, and multiply that by 92,500,000.

NEW YORK, July Po te: in its copyrighted financial review , today, says: oT e financial community and the stock market remained uninformed to day as to precisely what items had sui- denly swollen our prospective war ex- ee in the first year by $5,000,0u",- ; nor was Wall street at all successful in its attempts to verify the several to- tale which came from Washington of the costs already incurred. “There was a feeling that the great in- crease in our scale of preparations had to do with the necessity of offsetting the worst which might be expected in the Russian situation, which continued to cause alarm. Meanwhile the rapid growth of demands upon our markets was further emphasized by the fact that Canada might seek from $50,000,000 'o $100,000,000 in New York. “Movement of prices on the Stock Ex- change again relapsed into uncertainty, with minor fluctuations making up the reater part of the changes. A good eal of weakness was apparent at tne opening and for a short time afterward, the steel and copper stocks losing a point or more. The decline was soon checked, however, and prices recovered their losses. “In the afternoon business was very dull, but the market was firm, and rices gradually moved upward, until, m many cases, the best figures of the day were reached, especially among the speculative industrial stocks. Dealings were unimportant, however, and were again principally in the hands of the professional group on the exchange. Gold Is Exported. Gold ex erie announced today, tietlea .$1,369,000 to Spain and $1, 0)0.- 000 to Seng At the present rate, exports of the metal are running largely in excess of receipts from abroa and the outward movement may be counted on to become a fac- tor of increasing interest and im- portance, if indeed, the matter is not made the subject of Government in- it- hat Washington is already turn- ing its attention to the matter of the exchangés is shown by the\pro- posed amendments to the ‘tradins with the enemy’ bill, to the effec: that the ‘Federa)] reserve banks are authorized and empowWered to ex- amine, supervise and control all deal- ings in foreign exchange, transfers of credits in any form,” except those carried on wholly within the United States, and ‘to require any person in- terested in such a transaction tc :vr- nish ccmplete information rei tive thereto. “Whether because of our curtailed exports to the North «f Europe, o1 he cause of developments in our Govern- ment’s financial plans, neutral ex- changes moved vigorously against New York today. The cable rate on Stcck- holm, quoted yesterday at 31.35 certs to the crown, today advanced tc 31.8.: on Christiania the moveniviit was from 23.65 to 28.95; on Copenhag-r from i.1¢ te 29.45.

LONDON, July 25.—The growth of war expenditures announced in the House oi Commos, while hecognized as inevitable, had little effect on the Stock Exchange to- day beyond checking business in the gilt- edged section. e market was good in spots. Shipping and oll shares were sup- ported and Cuban forts stocks were active and firm features. Russian issues continued weak. Brazilians declined with exchange and rubber stocks were easy. American securities were neglected. Money and discount rates were quiet. Car Shortage Likely. The Daily Traffic World and Bulletin says: ‘In less than a month, in all probability, 500,000 railroad care will be in Government service, carrying materials needed for the prosecution of the wa ~ 0 gee there are probably 120,000. Mos them are earrving lumber and other building materials for the army cantonments, 16 of which are being built for the rational armny to be raised under the conscription law. The national guard is also to hav3 cantonments. There oh to be aviation schools, and before Septem- her there will be at least 800,000 men prepar- ing for the fight. ‘In normal times the ratiroads of the coun- y haul for each !ndividual cloge to 18 tons a year When the war preparation reaches its maximum the average hauling per capita. it is reckoned, will be increased to more than 18 tons. That hauling must be done with fewer cars ani fewer engines than there were two vears ago and one vear ago. How much of a decrease there has been in the supply of cars is a matter of dispute. Milton H. promeees of the Louisville & Nashville. !n is recent pamphiet relating to car —— tion, figured the actual decrease in rs be- tween June 80. 1914, and Jan. 1. 1917. ‘an ; ame o 50,000. “There is no 4@ispute, however. about the proposition that in a month or six weeks the car question will be one of the greatest the country has ever had to solve.'’ BURIAL PERMITS.

KAHN SAYS AMERICANS OF TEUTONIC ORIGIN MUST HELP CRUSH PRUSSIANISM Their Duty, Declares New York Banker Who Was Reared in Germany, to Join in Res- cuing Country From Its Mad Rulers. Otto H. Kahn of the banking firm of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., New York, de- livered an address on the duty of Americans of German origin in the war between this country and Germany, before the Merchants’ Association of New York at its Liberty Loan meeting June 1. address were selected by Mr. Kahn. The following extracts from the He was born and educated in Germany and served one year in the Ger- man army, and did not come to America until he was 26 years of age, in 1893. He is a director of the Equitable Trust Co. and of other large con- cerns. chairman of the Metropolitan Opera Co., and an officer of the Covent Garden (London), York Theater Co. E have met today in pursuance VW of a high purpose, a purpose which at this fateful moment is one and the same wherever, through- out the world, the language of free men is spoken and understood. It is the purpose of a common deter- mination to fight and to bear and to dare everything and never to cease nor rest until the accursed thing which has brought upon the world the unutterabie calamity, the devil's visitation of this appalling war, is destroyed ~beyond all possibility of resurrection. | That accursed thing is not a nation, but an evil spirit, a spirit which has made the Government possessed by it and executing its abhorent and bloody bidding an abomination in the sight of God and men. What we are now contending for by the side of our splendidly brave and sorely tried allies, efter infinite for- bearance, after delay which many of us found it hard to bear, are the things which are amongst the highest and most cherished that the civilized world has attained through the toil, sacrifices and suffering of its best in the course of many centuries. They are the things without which darkness would fall upon hope, and life would become intolerable. They are the things of humanity, lib- erty, justice and mercy, for which the best men amongst all the nations—in- cluding the German nation—have fought and bled these many generations past, which were the ideals of Luther, Goethe, Schiller, Kant, and a host of others who had made the name of Germany great and beloved until fanatical Prussian- ism run amuck came to make its deeds a by-word and a hissing. More Than Conflict of Peoples. This appalling conflict which has been drer.ching the world with blood is not a mere fight of one or more peoples against one or more other peoples. It goes far deeper. It sharply divides the soul and con- science of the world. lt transcends vastly the bounds of ra- cial allegiance. It is ethically fundamental. In determining one's attitude towards it, the time has gone by—if it ever was ~—when race and blood and inherited af- filiations were permitted to count. A century and a half ago Americans of English birth rose to free this coun- try from the oppression of the rulers of England. Today Americans of German birth dre called upon to rise, together with their fellow-citizens of all races, to free not only this country, but the whole world from the oppression of the rulers of Germany, an oppression far less capable of being endured and of far graver portent. Speaking as one born of German par- ents, I do not hesitate to state it as my deep conviction that the greatest service which men of German birth or antece- dents can render to the country of their origin is to proclaim. and to stand up for those gre#t and fine ideals and na- tional qualities and traditions which they in.erited from their ancestors, and to set t.eir faces like flint against the monstrour doctrines and acts of a ruler- ship which ha e robbed them of the Germany which they loved and in which they took just pr de, the Germany which had the good will, respect and admira- tion of the entire world. ._ I do not hesitate to state it as my sol- emn conviction that the more unmis- takably and whole-heartedly Americans of German origin throw themse'vs. intyu the struggle which this co'ntry has entered in order to rescue Geimany, no less than America and the rest of the world freom those sinister forces that ere, in President Wilson's language, the enemy of all manxind, the better they protect and serve the repute of the old German name and the true advantage of the German people. Speaks With Measured Words. Gentiemen, I measure my words. They are borne out all too emphatically by the hideous eloquence of deeds which have appelied the conscience of the civ- ilized world. They are borne out by expressions, written and spoken, of German professors employed by tne State to teach its youth. The burden of that teaching is that mght makes right. and that the Cer- man nation has been chosen to exercise @rerally. mentally and actually. the over- lordship of the world and must and will accomplish that task and that destiny whatever the cost in bloodshed, misery and ruin. The spirit of that teaching, in its in- tolerance, its mixture of eanctimonious.- ness and covetouaness and its self right- eous assumption of a world-improving mission. is ciosely akin to the apirit from which were bred the religious wars of the past through the long and dark years when Protestants and Catholics killed. one another and devastated Eu- rope. I speak in sorrow, for I am speaking of the country of my origin and I have not forgotten what I owe to ft. Il speak in bitter disappointment for I am thinking of the Germany of former days, the Germany which has contrib- uted ite full share to the store of the world’s imperishable assets and which, in not a few fields of human endeavor and achievements held the leading place among the nations of the earth And I speak tn the firm faith that, after its people shail have shaken off arise again and, will and the high respect of the and the affectionate loyalty of al this country nor the rest of the ples that the spirit which uncha cannot prevail, trines and methods which and in compliance that the ove.weening ambitions achieved.

ee ee ey cal ‘ml The Post-Dispatch Daily Short Story ~The Man Who | ! Came and Stayed | By F. H. Sweet. (Written Especially for the Post- Dispatch.) dé JOB?" ‘The farmer's face hard- A ened. That fine, uncovered head and the voice didn't belong tv the greasy cap and jumper. Nor the well-shod feet, either. ‘“‘No,’’ he added, “there isn’t any work in the field now The last cultivating has been done, and shucking won't commence under three or four weeks. I might be able to use a man for 2 few days then. But for the most part I do all my work, with the help of my daughter here. I’m only 4 small farmer, with no money for hir- ing.” “I'll wait for the shucking,” the man said. “I notice there are a good many weeds among the corn, some of them going to seed. It isn’t good for the next year’s crops for weeds tc go to s2ed. I'll be working at them.” “But I’ve no money to hire with, as: told you.” “I don't want any. It's the work among the corn that I’m asking for, not payment for it.” “Then I certainly don’t want you,” emphatically. “That kind of hiring looks too risky for me.” “Wait,’’ in a quiet voice of authority, as the farmer tightened the reins. “You don’t understand. Years and years “go there was a barefooted boy who was obliged to run away to: escape abuse. He wanted to go, with a great longing to do things. But there was an oid worran he loved and who loved him After beatings he went to her for com- fort. But when.the man was there he went and hid in the confield, which was his only refuge. “At last the old woman felt sorry for him and she advised him to run away. But he wouldn't agree till she consented for him to come back on 1 stealthy visit when the corn turned vellow. He loved it then more than at any other time, and in spite of abuse he never would have left the old woman except with tte hope of seeing her again soon. She was the only friend he had then, and the only real friend he has had through all the years since. Perhaps it was my. awarfed childbood that has mzae my life one without friends.” “Did you go back?” Asked Molly, the farmer's daughter, with pity in he- eyes. “Yes. I went only a few miles, but it , Seemed a long way to me, for I was but 8 years old. When the corn was turning I went back. But the old woman was dead, and the man caught and beat me until a neighbor interfered. When abie. [ ran away again, this time a long dis- tance. From that time I have never been near a yellowing cornfield till I saw this one from a car window an hour ago. When I stroked some of the Stalks it almost seemed as though I might be patting the old woman's face.”’ The farmer's eyes had moistened. ‘‘] never take much stock in runabout ho- boes,” he hesitated. ‘They're unhreli- able, and work haters. But I dont know. Look me in the face.” The man did so, with a half smile. The farmer studied him for some moments, then nodded. “I'll take the chance,” he said. “I rather like the Straight way of your looking, and you're well set up. But you're too young a man to be—what you are. I won't ask where you got your high. tened shoes. That isn’t my business But they're not fit to work in Take them off, and I'll give you a pair of Z0od serviceable ones. All I ask :s that you don’t do any crooked busi- ness. With me—which encs that kind of talk. Most of us make mistakes. You'll have to come right into my family, for I have no different way to treat hired help. You can putter round in the cornfield and do any Such odd jobs as you've a mind toa tackle till time for shucking, for board; then I'll give you ‘regular wages.” So the man without friends be -me one of a family who were friends to everybody. For a time he studied them curiously when away from the cornfield, then thoughtfully, and then with strangled heart hunger coming to his eyes. After that wonderful things hap- pened. A forgotten relative of the farmer died and left him enough to add the adjoining farm to his own and build a new house. A perplexing question appeared in a paper, with a choice of any make of automobile for the right answer, and Molly won it with the aid of the hired man Their one railroad was a narrow- gauge affair of poor service. Pres- ently it was bought, and a double track road surveyed through the rich- eat part of the country, and work at once commenced. To the farmer's de- light it crossed a corner of his land. on which a station was to be built. He wanted to donate the land, but the hired man persuaded him to ac.- cept damages instead, and the sum the company voluntarily offered was 60 great as to enable him to stock and equip the farm in a manner be- yond any of his tHreaming. When the corn was shucked, it was the farmer himself who begged the new man to stay at wages. He was froving himself invaluable. Who the relative died, the farmer urged wages more earnestly. The awarding of damages by the railroad brought it up again. “We can't keep up like this.” he insisted. “Your planning is worth a dozen men's ordinary labor.” “Tl want a. partnership,’ the man said, quietly, but with a tremor in his voice—"“Molly.” “] don't understand,” looking pusz- zied. “I love her, and she says that she loves me.” This time the farmer did not hesi- tate. “If Molly wishes it, you have my consent,” he said heartily. “T could not ask for a better man to come into the family.” He Knew Him. oy eer say he's a man of few words." “Yes; and most of those are profane.” NY \ \\ \ - \\ ’ \ ‘\\ he \\\ \ SHE “Took DIAMONBS WITH iF You Hab PLAYED TOUR.

Mme. Duck had her little duck- lings with her out for a walk: They had just come from a swim on the bog-pond and Madame, thinking she saw something that looked like a black head and bright eyes looking through the trees in the woods by the pond, called her children about her. “We will take a little walk in the open field on the other side of the pond,” she told them. “Then you can walk in the tall grass among the daisies.” Not a word did she tell them about seeing anything that looked like Mr. Fox’s nose, for she felt sure he could not reach that side of the pond until ste was near the barnyard, and there she would be safe, for Rover was al- ways on the lookout for Mr. Fox, and if she quacked loudly he would be sure to scent trouble and run to her aid. But there was Mr. Fox in tho road and he was looking right at her through the rail fence. The little ducklings never having seen Mr. Fox thought he was a very big dog, and their mother did not tell them it was the bad Mr. Fox they had often heard about. “Ah. Mme. Duck,” called Mr. Fox. “you have a fine looking family. Tf really must come over there and 4 Fox Danced. have a look at them.” “Do,” said Mme. Duck, trying hard to look pleasant as she drove her little ones ahead of her. “Come and walk through the daisy field with us.” “Run ahead, children. I want to talk with Mr. Reynard, and he wants to see how pretty you ara Waddle as fast as you can,” she said in a low voice. It did not need a second invitation for Mr, Fox to crawl through the rails and join Mme. Duck; in fact, --¢ had intended to join her anyway. “T'll just see what she will do now. I am sure of getting my dinner,” he said. “I expect she is silly enough to think she can run away from me with her children, but she can't; there isn’t a thing in sight, and noth- ing ¢an stop me from having one and perhaps two fat ducklings for my dinner.” The little ducklings waddled as fast as they could ahead of Mme. Duck and Mr. Fox, and all the time he was praising her babies and say- ing how fat they were and how proud she must be of such handsome children. The faster the little ducklings wad- dled the faster Mr. Fox walked, and that was just what Mme. Duck want- ed. “What pretty feet your children hove,” said Mr. Fox. “Not as pretty as yours, Mr. Fox,” said Mme. Duck, with a sweet smile. “l wish they could dance as I feel you can. Anyone who my dear _ Sai witiac eT See” % ae ee 3 yee Re me SR 7 eas rik x de 9 eae ae Ba Bis ee Pa Sina, Be 2 . ‘ ee sigs _ | has such feet and ankles as you have surely must be a fine dancer.” Mr. Fox said he could dance rather well, if he did say it, and he would be glad to dance some time for her, but just now he must have his din- ner. “T wish you would dance now,” said Madame Duck. “If you will I'll call the children to watch you. There is 4 nice green place where the grass is nut so tall, and we'can sit under the bushes near and watch you.” “Wine,” thought Mr. Fox. ‘She will call them back for my dinner. I can surely get two, with them all around me."’ Mr. Fox consented to dance, and Madame Duck called her children, but and Mr. Fox, knowing well enough that he never would touch her while her fat babies were near. When they reached the place where Mr. Fox was to dance Madame Duck, made her children sit under the bushes right near Mr. Fox, so he would feel he surely had them almost in his grasr. But what Mr. Fox did not see or notice was a clump of bushes an‘! boughs of trees near by, and so he began fo dance, whirling about ant randing on his tiptoes in the most graceful manner. - Around and around he whirled, al- ways keeping his eyes on the little ducklings, though. When Madame Duck felt sure he muet be dizzy she whispered to her children ic run across the bushes and boughs and run for home, for thi® was the bad ar. Fox they had heard of and he intended to carry them off to his cave in the woods. It didn’t need repeating, and in anoth- er second off they started, and Mr..Fox after them, but he was not as quick on his feet as he would have been had he not been whirling around so fast. He made a grab for one little duck, but he did not get him, and then the toughs crackled and down went Mr. Fox in a hole so deep he could not gcramble out. she was careful to keep between them | Madame Duck knew that hole was eee ee en Ee ee . wets 4h eee * ‘ gee as ee ead ee SA ye an ARs é a ae. % a % Whe dey ae ee oR eae.

Fox,’’ she said. ‘‘My children will not make a dinner for you after all, and if I am not mistaken you will be’ here when Rover and the master come along, for Rover often runs over this field after rabbits. “‘Good-by, dear Mr. Fox; you can think about that dinner you planned, for you will never eat another one, I am sure,”’ Mr. Fox did not reply. He knew he had been trapped and there was noth- ing to say. The only thing for him to do was to get out, if he could, before AS QUT OF DATE AS HORSE CARS NOW Say> corn rings, plasters, razor ; and eating salves are taboo now. Good things should be passed along. It is now said that a few ropa of a drug called freezone ap- plied directly upon a tender, aching corn relieves the soreness and soon the entire corn, root and all, can be lifted out without pain. For little cost a quarter of an ounce of freezone can be obtained from any drug store, which is claimed to be sufficient to remove every hard or soft corn or callus from one’s feet. This is a drug recently announced from Cincinnati. It is gummy but dries the moment it is applied and simply shrivels up the corn without inflaming or even irritating the healtby tissue or skin.
