DRAFTED MEN CHEERED Soldiers. Sailors, Civil War Veterans Take Part in Pageant. WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.—Typify- ing the spirit of the nation sending forth its sons to battle, the capital gave itself over this afternoon to a great public demonstration in which President Wilson, Congress and all the heads of the Government de- partments were leaders. The place of honor in a procession between Peace Monument at the foot of the Capitol, to the White House. was reserved for the 1400 drafted men comprising the District of Co- lumbia’s first contribution to the na- tional army. Led by President Wil- son and escorted by Senators and Representatives, sailors, soldiers and marines, men of the officers’ train- ing camp at Tort Myer and thou- sands of their fellow citizens, the na- tional army men marched between lines of checring thousands,.bidding them Godspeed on the first steps of their journey to France. The Civil War veterans of the Sen- ate had a place of honor. Senators Warren and Nelson of the Union army and Senators Bankhead and Martin of the Confederate army marched together, but there was only one flag fluitering above them—the Stars and Stripes. All Government offices, closed for the occasion, poured out their thou- sands to join the procession. Busi- ness houses were closed for the time. At the White House reviewing stand a party of foreign diplomts and other officials assembled, to wait for the President’s coming at the head of the procession and to join him in reviewing it. The House was tied by Speaker Champ Clark and “Uncle Joe” Can non, both of whom refused to ride. As the van of the column reached the White House the President en- tered the reviewing stand. With him was Viscount Ishii, special Am- Lassador from Japan, and the mem- bérs of the Japanese mission, the French Ambassedor and Mme. Jus- serand, the Mexican Ambassador and Senora Bonillas, and other members of the diplomatic corps. 30,000 Drafted Men Parade Through New Yory.

KUEHLMANN IN VIENNA Berlin Foreign Secretary and Count Czernin Discussing Re- ply to Go to Pope. BERLIN, Monday, Sept. 3, via London, Sept. 4.—A dispatch from Budapest says the Pester Lloyd gives proniinence to a long statement ema- nating from an inspired diplomatic source at Vienna in which the atti- tude of Auseria-Hungary and Ger- many toward President Wilson's reply to the Pope is set forth as fol- lows: “President Wilson and the entente are alone responsible for the terrible occasioned by the frustration of the Pope’s efforts on behalf of peace. Complete disarma- ment of the German peoples is in fact the aim of Mr. Wilson. “The suggestion that the undimin- ished military strength of Germany be disrupted in’ this way is not ‘new. That strength is based essen- tially on unity among the people, army and Government.” The declaration then endeavors to establish an error in Mr. Wilsonds interpretation of German conditions and says: “President Wilson will never achieve his goal. The artificial pathos of his notes and addresses will never induce the German people to relinquish that stage in their his- torical development which it has laboriously reached merely for the purpose of relapsing into a system of impotent and helpless small states, Lor will it permit itself to be tempted into committing a breach of faith against its rulers. “The demand for a cheap democ- ratization of Germany is alto a time- worn device of its enemies. “The German Foreign Secretary, Baron von Kuehlmann, always a welcome and most estimable guest, today is sojourning in Vienna. Mr. Wilson may rest assured that the discussing the establishment of new constitutions or forms of govern- metn fashioned after American pat- terns and dictates.”’ LONDON, Sept. 4.—The peace proposals of Pope Benedict will not meet with a rebuff on the part of the centrals Powers, according to the Liudapest newspaper Az Est, as quot- ed in a Central News dispatch from Amsterdam.

The central Powers will make sepa- rate replies to the Pope, Setting forth the principles arrived at these delib- erations. As for the Polish question, it is said no decision can be reached at the present.

Henderson, Leor Purdy, Rofino Adamas (a Filipino), Harry Spiros, Hermidos MRS. O'KEEFFE LOSES HER SUIT AGAINST MOYER Charge of Common Assault, Made as Result of Auto Trip Into County, Fails. George Moyer, sales manager for the Brown Shoe Co., today was ac- quitted by Justice of the Peace Gar- rett at Florissaiit of a charge of com- mon assault brought against him by Mrs. Leona O'Keefe, wife of Daniel J. O’Keefe of 5578 Clemens @venue. The case ha@ been under advisemnt since Aug. 25. After handing down his decision Justice Garrett said he. was consid- ering the advisability of calling the attention of the St. Louis County grand jury to a typewritten letter, signed with a typewritten name, which he received Sept. 1, urging him to “inflict severe punishment on Moyer.” This letter, he said, was plainly an effort to influence his mind and interfere with justice. He refused to divulge the name signed to it. Statement by the Justice. In deciding against Mrs. O’Keeffe, who alleged she was attacked by Moyer after an automobile visit to a roadhouse, Justice Garrett said: “T have carefully considered the evidence and the circumstances of this case and I have concluded that a lady going to these dinners at a wine garden can have no better friend than her husband and like- wise a man can have no better friend than his wife if she can accompany him.’’ Testimony had shown that Moyer’s wife was in San Antonio, Tex., at the time of the alleged attack and that Mrs. O'Keeffe'’s husband was in St. Louis. Justice Garrett assessed the costs of the case against Mrs. O'Keeffe with the comment that she was “without probable cause of action.” The incidents complained of by ‘Mrs. O'Keeffe were alleged to have occurred the night of July 16, at dif- ferent points on the St. Charles Rock road, when she was one of four members of an automobile party which stopped at a roadhouse at Carsonville for dinner, and then drove out the Natural Bridge road to its intersection with the St. Charles Rock road. Mrs. O'’Keeffe’s companions on the trip were Arthur Biggerstaff of the Brown Shoe Co., Miss Lilian Herzog and Moyer. Testimony of Mrs. O’ Keeffe. In her testimony Mrs. O’Keeffe declared that Moyer began annoying her at the dinner at the roadhouse, and that at three different points on the road during the drive he had the car stopped. She exhibited at the trial her clothing which she said she had worn on the trip, and said that the rents in the black silk dress and other garments were made by Moyer. She declared that Miss Herzog en- couraged Moyer, who ceased the at- tacks only when she threatened to tell her husband and have him square issues with Moyer. Mover denied all of the charges made by Mrs. O'Keeffe, and his tes- timony was corrvuborated by Bigger- staff and Miss Herzog. He said that Mra. O'Keeffe drank one and oa¢- President Says He Would Like: to Be With Men in Trenches LETTER from President A Wilson, made public to- day by the White House, addressed to Thomas L. Chad- bourne Jr. of the Mayor's Committee on National De- fense, New York, contains a word for drafted men. It reads: ‘‘Please say to thé men on Sept. 4 how entirely my heart is -with them and how my thoughts will follow them across the sea with confidence and also with genuine envy, for I should like to be with them on the field and in the trenches, where the real and final battle for the independ- ence of the United States is to be fought, alongside the other peoples of the world, strug- gling, like ourselves, to make an end of those things which have threatened the integrity of their territory, the lives of their people and the very character and independence of their Governments. “Bid them Godspeed for me from a very full heart.” GANGS IN CORK ASSAIL AMERICAN SAILOR VISITORS Escorts of Young Women Sct Upon by Paradcrs, Some of Whom Sing Sinn Fein Songs. LONDON, Sept. 4.—Attacks on American sailors Sunday night are reported in a dispatch from Cork to the Chronicle. It is said that gangs of ‘young men paraded the streets and set upon Americans who were accompanied by young women resid- ing there. One instance cited is that of two Americans who were attacked on the chief street of Cork, a young woman with them being insulted and ker hat being torn off. The cor respondent reports that the sailors did nothing improper or contrary to good taste to invite the attack and as far as‘could be learned, did not retaliate. They escaped on a tram car. All the gitle who suffered at the hands of the crowds, the dispatch says, belong to the respectable mid- dle class. An attempt was made at 11 p. m. to break into places where Americans are staying, the dispatch continues, but after a short seige the attackers departed. Several parties paraded the streets singing Sinn Fein songs and per- forming military evolutions. Some windows weré broken. One party raided the premises of an. officer’s training corps and stole 56 rifles, 30 revolvers and a number of swords, none of which have becn recovered, nor have any arrests been made.

Senator La Follette contended that committee’s new plan would not rease the tax burden of great cor- rations, but would exempt their ge surpluses. This was vehe- ntly denied by Senator Simnions. = iSenator Simmons declared that /hder the Bill as it now stands at ymst half the corporations of the se untry will be taxed more than be- »jre, the tax alone of the steel cor- » prations amounting to $183,734,000 > iis year, while the tax to be paid »f the Dupont Powder Co., will be 40,000,000 more and that of the *eneral Motors $1,500,000.

Our experienced fighters everywhere broke down the Russian resistance and in an impetuous forward thrust overcame every obstacle presented by the woods and marshes. The Rus- sians very hurriedly evacuated their extensive bridgehead west of the Dvina and Riga and our divisions now stand before the mouth of the Dvina. “Dense masses of troops are crowding along the roads from Riga in a northeasterly direction, in both day and night marchers. “South of the great road and on both sides of the Great Jaegel strong Russian forces were thrown against our troops in desperate and sanguli- nary attacks to cover the withdrawal of the defeated Twelfth army. They were overcome by our assaults, and the great road has been reached at several points by our divisions.

Owing to a delay in completing voluntary agreements with millers. Government control of grain will no‘ become fully effective until next Monday. During these five business days millers may purchase wheat at such prices as they ma yfeel inclined to pay, but after this week the Gov- ernment price of $2.20 a bushel at basis points will become effective Edward M. Flesh, second vice president of the United States Food Administration Grain Corporation in charge of the St. Louis district, em- bracing nine states, officially opened his offices in the Boatmen’s Bank Building today and announced he was ready to begin buying grain. The Government will pay $2.18 a bushel for No. 1 red wheat and $2.15 for No. 2 red wheat at St. Louis, these prices being two cents below the basis price of $2.20 a bushel at Chicago. Spirit of Co-operation. Flesh said the spirit of co-opera- tion shown by the millers through- out his district, which includes Mis- eouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Ken- tucky, Alabama, Georgia, Florida and North and South Carolina, was wonderful. Everywhere, he said, the millers were eager to co-operate with the Government to help it win the war against Germany. Flesh has been busy for. several weeks perfecting an organization ‘o control the wheat and rye in his dis- trict. All elevators and grain ware- houses and mills of more than 100 barrels capacity must obtain licenses from the Government in order to vio business, and practically all such establishments have made applica- tions for their licenses. Through the co-operation of the railroads, Flesh has obtained the names and ad- dresses of all grain dealers, eleva- tors and warehouses in the nine states over which he has control. Railroads Lend Aid. He said W. S. McChesney, presi- dent of the Terminal Railroad As- sociation, had rendered his office an invaluable service by writing to the president of every railroad in the nine states and asking them to fur- nish the names of the grain men. Between 60 and 75 railroad presi- dents promptly complied with the re- quests, Flesh said. Under the law, no wheat or rye may be stored in‘any elevator or warehouse by any individual or pri- vate corporation for more than 30 days.

Bread Prices Under Control. Flesh said that he had no infor- mation as to whether the Govern- ment would fix the price of flour, but the millers would be allowed only a reasonable, fixed profit, so that the price of bread to the people would be under effective control. As second vice president of the Food Administration Grain Corpora- tion, Flesh will serve during the peri- od of the war without remuneration of any kind. As has been told, he had to sell all of his grain business to become eligible for the position. He said today the most difficult part of his task was to divorce himself from St. Louis, because, in his new undertaking, he had to serve the in- terests of the entire United States. Bert H.

There’s a mighty good reason for this big leadership: Fatima’s Turkish blend gives more than fine flavor alone, more than com- fort to throat and tongue — Fatimas never disturb even though you may smoke all day long.

The school bells rang this morning for St. Louis children in both public and parochial schools. They were not the old-fashioned bells that hang in a cupola and are pulled by a rope. but electric gongs in hallways, or, in a few cases, an equally noisy din- ner bell in the school janitor’s hund. Supt. Withers estimated the pros- pective number of public school chil- dren as 81,000 Last year’s opening Cay attendance, 80,249, was snia.ler than that of the first day of tne year before, but this is believed to hve been because opening day last year was hot and no session was held in the afternoon. Last year’s attendance, counting every pupil who enrolled, was 100,- 512. This was an increase over pre- vious years, and the Superintendent expects another increase “this year, but it is too early for estimates on this total. The teaching force of the public schools comprises 2538 principals and teachers. The institutions where they serve are the Teachers’ College, Junior High School, six high schools, two open-air schools, one school for the deaf, 114 elementary schools and 168 kindergartens, most of them housed in the elementary school buildings. The Junior High School, which occupies the former Smith Academy buildings on Von Versen avenue, west of Union boulevard, was opened today for teachers, but the pupils did not appear there. They went to their former schools, and were as- signed to report at the Junior High School tomorrow. It is for seventh and eighth grade pupils. New Principal for Juniors. Philip W. L.

The Catholic schools which opened today included 68 parish schools. twe high schools and some convents and academies. The time for the ovening of the latter institutions is not uni- form, and Archbishop Glennon did not know exactly how many of them opened today. Ths high schools are the Kenrick, Jefferson avenue and Carr street, and the Rosati-Kain, (grand and Lucas avenues.

Archbishop Glennon, speaking yes- terday at the dedication ceremony of the new sanitorium of Mount St. Rose Hospital, paid a high tribute to the Sisters of St. Mary who founded and have maintained the _ institution. Their courage in caring for those afflicted with tuberculosis, he said, is comparable to the valor of men on the battlefield. He reviewed the history of the hos- pital, referring particularly to the campaign three years ago to raise funds for the building which was dedicated .yesterday. Im that cam- paign, he said, $119,000 was col- lected, but, he declared the Sisters added freely of their own private funds to this amount in order to make the sanitorium the model in- stitution they wanted it to be.

Most of the rejéctions which Can- 'non desired the Appeal Board to con- | sider, he says in his letter to Chair- |'man Spencer, were due to “deficient weight” or “flat feet.” A copy of the Fourteenth Ward Board’s record ‘furnished to Cannon by Edward A, Hoberg, one of the board’s clerks, gives “underweight” as the reason 'for the rejection of 39 of 132 men pronounced by the doctors as phys- Costume Suits After you have looked the $15.75 Suits over (or before), see our line of high-class Costume Suits, of imported silk velvet, Duvet de Laine, Duvetyn, etc., lavishly fur trimmed.

These were among the 992 men in the first-call made by the Fourteenth Ward Board. “Flat feet’ was the grounds for the rejection of seven of the 132 men designated as physically disqualified. It is pointed out by Cannon that while the Fourteenth Ward has called 692 men to obtain the requis- ite quota of 146 men, the board of the Sixteenth Ward, adjoining the Fourteenth ward has raised its quota of 129 men in a total of only youthful in its lines.

Explains His Position. On the subject of the appeals which he sought :to take for the Government, Cannon in his letter to Chairman Spencer writes: “In order to illustrate, on Aug. 25 the Government took appeals in 55 cases from the order of Local Board No. 14 rejecting that many drafted men (first call men) mostly because of ‘underweight’ and ‘flat feet;’ not- withstanding all of these rejections were made by Local Board No. 14 on or prior to Aug. 18 Mr. Kortjohn now contends that the appeals taken by the Government's attorney were premature, because Local Board No. 14 did not certify the rejections to the District Board; i. e., Mr. Kort- john’s contention makes the right of 'the Government to appeal to turn upon the fact of “certification” and not upon the fact of “‘rejection.”’ His conclusion is not justified by any language of the act, and if carried to its ultimate end would deprive the Government of an appeal in every case where the local board by reason of negligence or otherwise withheld its certificate. I understand from you that you approve the posi- tion taken by Mr. Kortjohn. “If, however, the contention of the chairman of the Fourteenth District Local Board is correct, then first and second calls should be disposed of before the third call is made, other- wise men of the third call are obliged to serve out of their order: this is an inequality contrary to the law and has been denounced by the Provost Marshal] General in instruc- tions to district and local boards. “T cannot sit still and see this sort of thing ‘put over,’ hence my resig- & THOMAS W.

Materials are velour, silk plush, mixtures, etc. All sizes. a nation.”’ Assails Ward Board. Supplementing his letter to Chair- man Spencer Cannon said to a Post- Dispatch reporters “The apparent disinclination of Chairman Kortjohn and his associ- ates on the Fourteenth Ward Board to follow the law and to accept the Provost Marshal General's interpre- tation of it, is my reason for resign- ing from the work of special rep- resentative of the Government, “Without the co-operation of the local board my task would have been _ difficult enough. In the face of their objections to doing what I believe both the statute and justice require it is impossible for me to continue. “Chairman Kortjohn contends that |no appeals can be taken to the Dis- trict Board until the Ward Board has certified rejections or exemptions, as the case may be.

If You Really Want to Re- duce Your Weight, Follow This Simple Plan Mrs. Fallon sends a communica- tion which is being printed here on account of the genuine interest man- ifested by many other readers: “Tell those of your readers who would like to be free of the embar- rassing, mindering burden of over- weight without the objectionable fol- lowing of drastic rules of eating and | exercising, to try the sane, simple and gafe plan of open-air deep breathing combined with the use of oil of korein and the other simple | directions that come with it. “A box containing a liberal quan-| tity may be secured from any drug- gist. “With a simple, inexpensive and dependable means such as this, why | carry | should anyone continue to around a great load of surplus fat?” Every reader who desires to get down to normal weight should lose no time in making use of this infor- mation, especially as the treatment | is said to reduce the weight harm- lessly, quickly and pleasantly, also to materially aid digestion, improve the general health, beautify the fig- ure, replace sluggishness with buoy- ancy and to leave firm flesh and. smooth skin in the place of sagging, burdensome fat. Remember the name—oil of korein, in capsules.— ADVERTISEMENT. -oo CARELESS USE OF SOAP SPOILS THE HAIR Soap should be used very carefully, if you want to keep your hair looking its best. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much’ alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it. The best thing for steady use is just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (which is pure and greaseless),and is better than the most expensive soap or any- thing else you can use. One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Sim- ply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to manage. You carn get mulsified cocoanut oil at any pharmacy, it’s very cheap, and a few ounces will supply every mem-. ber of the family for months.—-ADV, Rolling, | and Charles |". | STUDY JAPANESE Part of Australian Plan to Extend Trade Relations. SYDNEY, Australia, Sept. 4.—~The cadets at Australia’s ‘“‘West Point,” the Royal Military College at Dun- troon, have begun the study of Jap- ‘anese under a specially appointed teacher. It is also proposed that Japanese be made a part of the cur- riculum at the Royal Australian Na- val College at Jervis Bay. In addi- tion to this the instructor in Jap- anese at Duntroon will conduct classes in that language at Sydney University. In furtherance of the general scheme of making Australians con- versant with the Japanese language it has been decided to invite several more Japanese teachers to settle in Australia in the expectation that, after the war, the trade relations ‘between the Commonwealth and Jap- an will assume very large propor- tions.

The man who recently got into the offices of three St. Louis business concerns, at night, by representing himself as an expert accountant and persuading the night watchman to let him in to inspect the books, is be- lieved to have been caught in Kansas City. A photograph of Clarence L. Ryan, also known as Conroy, 27 years old, who is held in Kansas City on two charges similar to those in St. Louts, was received at police headquarters today and was indentified, the police said, by the St. Louis night watch- men. Whether the man will be bought here or left in Kansas City has not been determined. "The story of the visit to the office of the Charles Thuener Planing Mill Co., Prairie avenue and Lucky street, the night of Aug. 18, was told to the pqjice by Dennis Sweeney, who is night watchman there. He said a man knocked on the office door at 11 p. m., and announced he had been sent to go over the accounts of the bookkeeper, whom he mentioned by name. He was admitted, took off his coat and went to work over the books. The watchman stayed about until the man asked him, about Il o’clock, to go out and get him a cup of coffee. The watchman went, and when he returned the man had gone. The safe had been opened by means of the combination, which was found by the stranger in the bookkeeper’s desk, and several dollars and a quan- tity of stamps had been taken. At the office of the Polar Wave Ice and Fuel Co., Delmar boulevard and Bayard avenue, the next night, and at the Christopher & Simpson Iron Works, Ninth street and Park ave- nue, the night of Aug. 20, the same method was used. At the ice office only a small amount was obtained, but at the iron works the man got $135.71.

A Frenchman's idea of what an Amer- ican General is in no way resembled the head of the American expedition- ary force and it must be admitted that French admiration and enthusi- asm have been all the greater on that account.

EXTREMES AVOIDED IN _“The Country Cousin’ Lam- poons Sophisticated Society of Money-Spoiled America. NEW YORK, Sept. . 4.—While casting about to find a successor to ‘the long successful “Turn to the Right” the 'Theater must have recalled the per- ‘sistent popularity a few years ago at the Astor, next door, of “The Man from Home,” in which Booth Tark- ington glorified the simple virtues of the unspoilel West through the ;mouth of that amiable but resolute ‘hero, Daniel Vorhees Pike. Mr. | Tarkington also must have remem - | bered the pecuniary advantage of pitting the honest innocence bred in ‘the rural districts against the shams -and dissipations of the money-spoiled East. 'he wrote with Julian Street, and which the Gaiety presented last night, exactly reversed the characters of his earlier play, although the theme re- mained essentially the same. So, instead of rescue work of Dan- iel Vorhees Pike, the audience saw the same good offices performed by Nancy Price, a homely, sensible, ‘sharp-tongued spinster from Centre ville, O. She had gone to the country ‘villa, on Long Island of a weird product of New York’s dissolute set. | There she rescued her innocent West- ern cousin, who had -been lured into the coils of the gay life. There also ‘she put to rout a weird week-end party of social wastrels and triumph- ‘antly return2d the Western girl to her poor but noble lover, who was waNing for her back in Ohio. The sermon was sound enough. But the ‘details of the life the scenes repre- ‘sented were always overdrawn and 'often not a little nalve. The West was pictured in the rest- ful atmosphere of rural sanctity. The contrasting episodes of Eastern de- pravity were exaggerated in their sin- ister aspects until the effect they produced was almost grotesque. But the play was worth while if only for the charm, interest and clev- ‘erness with which the character of the spinster, Nancy Price, was drawn by the authors. Role was also acted j with unfailing skill by Alexandra |Carlisle. Throughout she carried the 'play to whatever success it gained | before its first audience. } The scene of the exterior of the | Long Island villa in the second act managers of the Gaiety | “The Country Cousin” which | ORPHEUM'S FIRST BILL | | Atractive Performance Opens | Handsome New Home of Vaudeville.

A RESTAURANT teal Estate Dealer and Socialist | Opposed Many Public Improvements, | election to call at his office on or be- fore Oct. 1 and close up their ac- | counts.

Herrmann ran for Congress on the Socialist ticket in the Tenth District in 1912. It was understood in polit- ical circles that he was a liberal con- tributor to the Socialist treasury, as he was considered one of the most well-to-do members of the party in St. Louis. The office of the John P. Herr- mann Real Estate Co. is one of the landmarks of Market street. The building is a narrow structure, sev- eral stories high, and before other buildings were erected around it it was conspicuous. .Herrmann had his office on the second floor of this building, and his desk was usually covered with Socialist literature, some of.which he was the author. He enjoyed being in a civic fight or lawsuit, and often courted publicity as a means of getting his point of view before the public.

|ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH STATE MILITIA EAGER TOGD TO FORT SLL Men Think Cantonment Will Have Many Advantages Over Missouri Mobilization Grounds. NEVADA, Mo., Sept. 4.—A _ dis- patch from Fort Sill, Ok., yesterday information that the Mis- souri National Guard cantonment at Fort Doniphan is rapidly nearly completion, was joyously received by members of the First and Fifth reg- iments, who are eagerly looking for- ward to the date of their departure from the dusty, sun-baked military reservation here. The guardsmen will be glad to get away from Camp Clark, for the State mobilization grounds offer few comforts and conveniences that are to be found at the permanent posts. One of the hardships imposed upon the men here is the ban placed upon the swimming hole in the northeast corner of the reservation. The lake, which was formerly used by the foldiers for swimming and bathing, is near the isolation camp where two companies of the Sixth are in quar- antine, and special field guards are stationed near by to prevent all un- authorized persons from approach- ing the camp. This restriction com- pels the soldiers. to be contented with the camp shower baths. The Fifth began the second week of its intensive training schedule yesterday with a resumption of the company close order drills in which _. bringing particular attention is being paid to | the manual of arms, which many of the new men are finding a bit diffi- cult to master. Very satisfactory progress has been made in this direction, how- ever, considering that the regiment has been equapped with rifles only a week, and it is the opinion of officers that the regiment will be ready to take up some of the more important esseritials of military science in a few days. Particular stress is placed upon the position and aiming exercises, as the new firing course does not allow of the expenditure of as much am- munition as the old marksmanship course, which included quite a bit of long range work not now regard- ed as essential in the shorter ranges common to trench warfare on the west battle front in France. Another shipment of uniforms, blankets and underwear was re- ceived yesterday from St. Louis. The new equipment will be issued today The regiment now has all necessary field equipment execpting cartridge belts, bayonets, canteens, packs, in- trenching tools and machine guns. Most of this material is said to be on the way. When it arrives the regi- ment will be ready to proceed to the Fort Sill cantonment. — _—— Children Die After Eating Grapes. The death vesterday at Dupo, lil., a village soutn of East St. Louis, of | two children after a short iliness. was attributed by the attending phy- sician to the eating of green grapes.

We have proven our desire that the people of St. Louis shall know exactly what is proposed. We want whatever settlement may finally be made to be made in the open, and with public approval, so that it may ‘give us a fairly permanent base on which to plan future extensions and betterments of the service. There is, however, a factor in the situation that. calis for a settlement without undue delay. That factor is the probability that the Company, if not soon relieved of excessive City taxation, ab- sorbing its revenue, and of the City’s attack on its franchises, injuring its credit, may be forced into a _ receivership through inability to satisfy $5,448,000 of bonded debt on underlying lines, which debt falls due within the next three years—$3,500,000 of it within nine months. If the City will repeal that part of its street railway taxes that is obviously excessive and unfair both to the Company and its paseengers, and will quit attacking the Company’s right to do business — here, the Company will be able to care for these mortgages as they fall due, and for others falling due later, and hold together the all-city sys tem, with its universal free transfers. If the City fails to lighten the Company’s excessive | tax burden, and to quit attacking its right to do business, the Compan will probably be unable to satisfy these mortgages when they fall due, and the bondholders, for their own protection, may insist on a récelver- - ship, a dissolution of the all-city system with consequent loss or serious curtailment of the free transfer privilege, and the operation of the lines indebted to them as separate systems. This if it takes place will be a hardship on scores of thousands who have bought homes in the outlying districts of the City, relying on The United Railways Company for a single fare. It will wipe cut very large real estate values in those districts and will sericusly injure a good many business enterprises. ; The free transfer system saves St. Louis street car passengers close to $1,000,000 a year. It is . worth many millions yearly to the community as a whole, in the new property values it helps to create as our population overfiows into outlying territory. This is one of the reasons why a fair settle ment, made without unnecessary delay, is just as important to the community as it is to the Company. We hardly need to remind you that the spectacle of St. Louis’ largest public service company, one of the best street railways in the country, forced into a receivership by your City Government, — would be the worst possible advertisement of St. Louis as a field for all other business investments.

JOSEPH PULITZER. 4 April 10, 1907. ; LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. Belgian Charities. Wo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The “National Committee for Relief in Belgium” recently announced that they weere suspending their appeals in this coun- try, as the United States Government had taken on itself the work of relieving the Belgians in Belgium. ‘This announcement, wmithough quite clear in itself, has left a widespread impression that all other Bel- gian charities Lad also stopped and, in con- sequence, there has been a marked falling wff in the subscriptions to other Belgian funda, I skall esteem it a favor if you will kind- ty make it clear to your readers that the ‘work taken over by the United States Gov- @ermment is that of relieving Belgians in Belgium, and that there are other numer- wus charities which are still being carried out in this country. The objects of some of these may be mentioned: lL Care of the broken-down Be:gian chil- mdren, brought from Belgium into Holland for treatment. 2. Care of the wives and children of ‘war prisoners and interned Belgian men fin Holland 3. Instruction of blind and maimed sol- qdiers in new trades, in England, France and Switzerland. 4. Provision of elementary comforts for Belgian soldiers in the trenches, who are cut off from their families in Be'’cgium. 5. Care of the soldiers in the training amps and the wounded in the hospitals. 6. Care of the men who, have escaped from Belgium to enlist in the Belgian army @nd who are without means. 7. Provision of necessities and comforts “0 Belgian interned soldiers in Holland. & Provision of necessities and comforts fo Belgian pfisoners of war in Germany. The above are all cases in which it is @mpossible for aid to be obtained from Bel- wtum, and unless these charitable institu- Stions are assisted by the British public, the Belgian soldiers will not have the necessary eomforts, and the plight of the poor unfor- tunate Belgian civilians will be miserable in the extreme. The work undertaken by “the U. S. A. Government does not cover @hese cases at all. We trust, therefore, that ‘the generous public will continue thefr sub- eecriptions as before. EMILE VANDERVELDE, Belgian Minister of State ’ Yendon, July 31. me ee . Recklesxs Amtotsts. So the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. There are many drivers of autos and wag- deers In St. Louis who seem to regard their . “velricles as weapons, their employment as a Jicense and their occupation an unrestricted privilege to be reckless. Their chief idea seems to be that all, old and young, must, the moment they come within seeing dis- tance, Jump and run like scared turkeys. ‘When they dash*by and discover that the pedestrian has made a hair-breadth escape they shout vituperation and, perhaps, curses, until they are out of hearing. Such reckless drivers should be singled out for the supreme legal penalties that will either reduce them to common sense behavior or @ritve them from the streets. J. A. TATE. — Locking the Stable. Seo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. What is it that prevents the enforcement of jaws until an accident or a death is re- corded? Then we find that a law exists for the prevention of that very thing and that “the Chief” has given orders to his po- licemen to have the law enforced. How deplorable this order of things must appear to every reasonable citizen. Why did not the police stop children coasting on the streets 'n- time to save the life of the Tierney chilc? Why do not the police keep boys from catching on behind cars, wag- ons, and automobiles? Are they waiting to have one or more crippled or killed before doing their duty or informing themselves that laws exist now for the prevention of these very things? Must they wait for “the Chief” to point out each law to them in or- der to enforce it? It is a common sight on our most crowded streets to see boys drop from the rear of trucks, street cars, wagons, etc., directly in the path of an automobile. Is there no la to keep these boys from hopping off and on said vehicles? Or have the police not yet been instructed to enforce tlis particular law? INQUIRER. a Searcelty News. From the Memphis Commercial-Appeal Col. Bryan declares that the American people will never have a chance to vote for him again. Col. Bryan is not telling the American people anything nem, WILSON NOTE IN GERMANY. Even the press of Austria, which is supposed to have furnished the real initiative to the Pope’s peace note, finds nothing but bitter words for the simple peace formula laid down in Mr. Wilson's reply. One Vienna paper says the reply is nonsensical, is filled with malignancy against Germany and reveals ignorance of German political institutions. Another says the President sets up a Monroe Doctrine for Europe, claims the right to remodel state forms and make European countries depen- dencies of America. In the German press the impious presidential assertion that the very head of the system of Teu- tonic kultur has forfeited all claim to the con- fidence of civilization and become an outlaw, with which the public law of the world can make no terms, causes an indignation too great for co- herent expression. One paper says Mr. Wilson draws all his know]- edge of Germany from prejudiced British sources. Another speaks of his “shameless impudence.” Another remarks that the reply of American democracy to the Pope’s proposal was framed by Mr. Wilson in solitude, without consultation with anybody else, whereas the reply of autocratic Ger- many will be framed by a commission made up of representatives of the people and of the Govern- ment. But what would happen to a paper in Germany, or in Austria, either, which dared to refer to the President’s note in other than abusive or at least belittling terms? The one man in Germany with the courage to admit publicly the force of Mr. Wilson’s ideas was Herr Harden. For much less than conceding that a Wilson note dashing German hopes of peace through papal mediation might have some merit, Herr Harden’s paper was suppressed and Herr Harden conscripted for routine duties at the War Office. Believing he has a majority of the Reichstag behind him, Dr. Kar! Heine has given the ministry four weeks in which to make sweeping reforms. moval of the political censorship would enable thé@® press to tell what it thinks about a peace on the Wilson basis. his reply expressed German desires and that it There can be no question that was made exceedingly opportune by a late ferment in the country. The substitution of responsible for irresponsible governments is something toward which the. peo- ple have been working since the revolts of 1848. The gerrymandered representation in the Reichs- tag has given the junkers disproportionate legis- lative strength, but estimates of the number of Social Democratic and Liberal voters show that government by consent of the governed is favored by a majority of the people With the eagerness for peace and liberal aspira- tions all inclining popular thought in the same direction, the reconstruction may be forced much sooner than we expect. = = wr REGISTERS OF ST. LOUIS GROWTH. The number of names in the new St. Louis city directory is placed at 362,260. Using a fairly constant ratio the country through between city directory names and total number of city inhabitants, this figure might serve as the starting point in calculations on the population rank of St. Louis on Sept. 1, 1917. The ratio between the number of Smiths in a given city to total number of inhabitants must also be fairly constant the country through. An- other starting point in interesting calculations might be furnished by the 3000 persons named Smith who are included in the new editions of the directory. But such unofficial calculations are not par- ticularly important or satisfying. The signifi- cant fact is that the new volume is one and a half inches thicker than the old one—what is the ratio between directory thicknessand population? —and that it contains 18924 more names than last year’s edition. This increase in the total of those entitled to call themselves St. Louisans its not sensational. Neither is the increase from $427,736 to $443,610 in the total receipts of the St. Louis Postoffice last month. But both figures are gratifying ps registering a steady and substantial growth in the opportuni- ties St. Louis presents and a uniform advance in all the conditions on which the prosperity and rank of a great center of population depend. = = — ee MAYOR THOMPSON’S OFFENDING. The chief harm done by the Chicago Mayor’s permisston for the convention of discredited pa- cifists to meet in his city was to the pacifists and the Mayor themselves. Mr. Thompson’s con- temptuous defiance of Gov. Lowden’s order to keep this pro-German band from assembling in Illinois, as it had been prevented in other states, is in keeping with the other actions that have earned him the dislike and distrust of loyal Americans everywhere. Gov. Lowden was, in the main, right. The ap- pearance of this band of pacifists elsewhere had been attended by riots and other serious breaches of the peace. Their avowed purpose was to do whatever they might to thwart the will of the whole country and to weaken as far as possible its determination to wage to the uttermost the war into which we have righteously entered. The chief executive of a state is primarily charged with the duty of keeping the peace fn his com- monwealth, and surely he is privileged to refuse asylum to disturbance-breeders from other states. There was not the slightest chance for these friends of the Kaiser to’ bring the great majority to their view. All they could hope to do was to cripple the country’s potentialities for warfare. No greater service than this could be-given to the enemies of America, Yet, at the moment they succeeded in holding their meeting, they failed in its greatest purpose. The country’s thought-is not. upon what they did, | but upon the way in which they did it. It sees them in alliance with a man whose career since we entered the war has been notoriously one of opposition to every measure that makes it possi- ble for our soldiers to meet victory on the battle- field instead of defeat. It is concerned more with the problem of what should be done or what can be done with Thompson than with what these migratory ranters have to say about the war. = = William Randotph Hearst has decided not to run for Mayor of New York, which permits the world again to turn its undivided attention to the great war. PATRIOTISM IN THE SCHOOLS. In giving instructions to the public school teach- ers that the instillation of patriotism in children be made a part of their classroom activities, Supt. Withers has taken a timely and desirable step. Hitherto the saluting of the flag and the sing- ing of national hymns have been the only signs of national consciousness in the schools, and; as Mr. Withers points out, these acts are “merely the etiquette of patriotism.” The student who salutes the flag because he will be kept after school if he doesn’t and the pupil who sings “America” for the same reason are not likely to grow to maturity with a deep reverence for the country and its ideals. It is necessary that the children be made to under- stand the things that the flag and the hymns stand for. This is the task the teachers are asked to assume. Of the 80,000 children who go back to school today, doubtless half have an uncle, father, broth- er or friend in the armed service of the country. This fact will make it easy for the teachers to preach the gospel of real patriotism and country love. It is just as important that boys and girls be taught to love democratic ideals as it is for them to learn to love good literature and good music. Mr. Withers suggests that the children should have the state papers of President Wilson read to them. Here is a whole course of patriotism in itself. Since the Gettysburg address and other utterances of Lincoln have real patriotism and national affection been better defined than in the statements made by President Wilson since the beginning of the war? If the children can be made to grasp the sig- nificance of the executi¥e’s words and take them to their hearts their instruction in patriotism may be said to be as complete as it can be made in the public schools. , — 4 — “Nonsensical,” says Vienna of President Wil- son’s reply to the Pope’s peace proposal, proving that Austria’s thinking is still being done by the bureaucrats of the Wihelmstrasse. di de i i A THE TRIAL OF SUKEHOMLINOFF. Sukhomlinoff, former Russian War Minister, is the first of the pro-German Russian Government conspirators to be tried for treason since the rev- olution. That he lived to undergo trial is due to the sense of justice and the personal heroism of Kerensky. How his life was saved is told by Isaac F. Marcosson in his book, “The Rebirth of Rus- ia,”’ in the following language: The arrest of the archtraitor Sukhomlinoff created one of the many sensational episodes that crowded thick and fast upon this day of days (March 13, last). He was found in the apartment of a friend and dragged in full uni- form to the Duma. The restraint which had marked the taking of most of the oppres- ors vanished at the sight of the betrayer of his country. There was a rush to rend him. Kerensky heard the uproar, and placing him- self before the shuddering and cowering fig- ure, said dramatically: “Every man in Rus- sia is now to have a fair trial. I shall be re- sponsible for Sukhomlinoff. If you kill him you must kill me first.” It was the first enunciation of the new rule of justice, and it prevailed. The ex-Czar, in his far off prison in Siberia will watch this and other trials of his former tools and confederates with an anxiety that must be torture. It is hardly conceivable that he can escape the greater condemnation for their mis- doings. = = * —. a a Yn connection with the German promises in the Toro case, Argentina should consider that “toro” translated into English means “bull.” = = wwe eS BILL CLANCY, POET. Bill Clancy may not be aware of it, but he isa poet. We suspected it when we read the news that, on the day after the United States declared war, Bill tied an American flag on his bayonet when he went “over the top” with his Canadian comrades at Vimy Ridge, by way of showing, as an American, what the Germans might expect. But we are sure of it since we have read Bill’s ac- count of the incident. Not that the story ts in the language of poetry. Judging from it alone, one would doubt if Bill knew the difference between iambic pentameters and olla podridas. It is prosy enough in its com- monplace recital of how this was the happiest day in his life. But hark at the way it tells of a side incident: One young fellow got hit with a ptece of shell. He asked me to remember him to all his people in Newark, N. J. The last words he said were “Bill Clancy, I am glad I gave my jife for the freedom of the world.” He died in my arms. So I let him lie, but just before he died he kissed my flag. “Ola Glory,” he said. And I told him: “Yes, Old Glory, and new glory, too.” Poor chap, I did not see him any more, for when I went forward again under heavy fire I met nry accident. There is not a great deal of twanging lyres about it when poets like Bill Clancy go charging forward under Old Glory, but we'd like to tip our friends, the enemy, off to the fact that, when a million or so of them get into action sometime early in next year, there will be a fearful home- sickness in that part of the Great Beyond. where Homer and Virgil and Firdusi have their immortal habitation. od = = — — a IT HAPPENED ONLY ONCE.

POST- DISPATCH ease Strain for Over Six Hours ‘Struggle for Championship _ H. Goelitz, of Chicago, Out- points All Rivals in Ten Events Decided at Francis Field. After watching the performances df nine Titans in competition which lasted from shortly after noon until it was necessary to augment the moon with two bright arc lights in order to distinguish the contenders, the faithful 500 who witnessed the grand finale of the three-day Nation- al A. A. U. track and field games probably came to the conclu- sion that Hercules had something of a snap in mopping the Augean stables and slaying the Nemean Lion. Hercules, Atlas and the Ajaxes might have lost their respective reputations | had they entered the 10-event meet for the American all around athletic championship. At 1:30 o’clock yesterday after- noon, nine title aspirants battled a veritable gale in dashing down the straight-away at Francis Field in the 100-yard sprint. later the same nine supermen, as the aforementioned few onlookers will attest them to be, toyed with a 16-pound hammer during a rain that sent every spectator in the stand to cover. Then a burning sun came out on the job, and the nine Titans continued the contest. They walked a half mile, they pole vault- ed, they high jumped, then broad jumped, ran the hurdles, threw the 16-pound hammer, heaved the 56- pound weight, and at last painfully struggled through a long mile, as a final torture of the day. In the Gloaming. As they went to the starting mark that last test, one could not distin- guish a person five feet distant. Two large arcs were focused on the run- ners from the top of Francis Gym- nasium and it was only by this means that officials could follow the run- ners. At the end of that race there was not one of the contenders who did not fall in the heap, their force spent through a day of gruelling physical torture. If Jason had a harder search for the Golden Fleece than Harry Goelitz of the Chicago Athletic Association had for the American all-around athletic championship, Jason undoubtedly de- serves the grand all-time blue ribbon for power, pluck and perseverance. Harry Goelitz, who won yesterday’s Grand Prix of the annual national championships, pulled about the big- gest surprise of the meet and also is credited with the most unusual feat of the three-day competition.

A. U. track and field games here at Francis Field, Friday, Satur- flay and Monday. This state- ment was made yesterday by C. G. Murdoch, in charge of the St. Louis branch of the Red Cross. Officials of the meet were reticent regarding finances, as all returns are not. yet in.

Goelitz is a youth 23 years old, weighs 169 pounds, and is 5 feet 10% inches. He represents the middle- weight type of Martin Delaney’s three-man team of the Chicago A. A. Avery Brundage, former champion, was the heavyweight, while Carl Buck was the lightweight entry. Fol- lowing yesterday’s victory Goelitz stated that he was through with all track and field athletics. The all-around meet was, according to officials, the greatest in history. Until the broad jump, the event. be- fore the mile, seven of the contes- tants had a chance for the title. Karimo, who finished second, would have won with a better mark in the last event. Brundage was leading through the first six events, but was thrown out of the running when he was whitewashed in the hurdles, due to upsetting three barriers. As in the junior, senior, and a)l- around games, the Chicago represen- tation cleaned up in the relays. Mar- tin Delaney'’s Cherry Circle squad won four of the five relays. The real thriller of the day was the mile event, in which Ted Meredith accom- plished-an 18-kKarat comeback per- formance, before putting up the spiked shoe and being listed as a has-been. Meredith, running as an- chor man for the Meadowbrook team, made up a 10 yard lead given to Smart, the 440 yard hurdle champion, and nosed out the Chicagoian at the won first place with 5702.166 points, WRAY'’S Making the Rabbit Bite.

Tener.’ 7 . . Navy Backs Up Football. IGNIFICANT of the wishes of the administration, the recent an- mouncement that the United States Military Academy has arranged to have Gilmour Dobie, of University of Washington fame, coach its football eleven, carries with it something of a rebuke for those institutions that have dropped athletics and particu- larly the gridiron game. Harvard, Yale and Princeton quit to a whisper on athletics, when war was declared. The reason for not re- suming has been stated to be that their teams have been wrecked by enlistments and that students were desirous of devoting the time for- merly taken up by athletics, to mil- itary drill. The alibi is completely scuttled | by the stand of the Navy, which | not only has far more service duty to attend to, but is condens- ing four years’ work into three, as well, If the Navy finds it advantageous to take up football at such a time, surely the effort is not too arduous for the universities of the country. Football, of all sports, is the one that the AVERAGE college student should be taught. Its disciplinary side as well as the fundamentals of play approximate more nearly to military tactics and strategy than: ; Life Saver for Dobie. H°” Dobie came to get this po- r sition has not been made clear. He left the University of Washington last year, after having had an un- beaten record as a coach extending over a decade. Dobie’s teams in 10 years suffered no defeats and only two ties. His separation from Washington was later followed'by the announce- ment that he had been engaged to coach the Detroit University eleven for the 1917 season. Detroit approx- imates the local university football teams in strength. Probably war made Dobie’s con- tract a burden to !the small institu- tion and it was no doubt glad to be relieved of what promised to be a financial incubus and at the same time to help out the naval academy. Navy lost all the members of the football eleven in the gradu- ating class und the one below it. I¢ will still, no doubt, be able to turn out a formidable eleven. Thus far Arm. his vot enterrd te football field. Uncle Sam needs the output of that institution in the field, as quickly is the raw material can be shaped up into fitness. Probably no eleven will be in existence there this season. 8 That Drewes Deadlock. 2 he Municipal Athletic Associa- tion heads are deadlocked over the case of Ted Drewes, member of the National Federation tennis cham- pionship title. Another vote will be required to determine whether Drewes has iost his rights as a mu- nicipal representative by joining the Triple A. The situation is complicated by the fact that Drewes, under the St. Louis Municipal code, would be eligible; but the National ideals on this point are opposed. Drewes, a product of the Municipal Fairgrounds courts, joined the Triple A, this year, and represented it in tournaments. The Municipal A. St. Louis says thig is all right and that it does not cost him his elig bility to play in local tournaments. The Natonal rules do not \touch thi¢ point in is RULES. but RECOM- MENDS and “HOPES” the spirit of the organization will be observed ev- erywhere, saii spirit being that only “players dependent on Municipal courts for thcir opportunity to play” be entitled to represent any city. Thus, if the spirit of the national organization's ideals is followed, Drewes is ineligible. On the other hand, the St. Louis Municipal Asso- ciation accepts Drewes, under ITS rules, and allows him to represent it locally. In the absence of any LAW or RULE that is mandatory, in the code of the National Federation, it would work no hardship to the conscience of anyone to say that whoever is cligible for St. Louls at home, ts eligible to represent gay other pastime in the workd, j | $t abroad, -- — -— _ ~-_— -— ™ . * ‘ - 5 a x Se.

The manner in which the highest-priced recruit of the year molded the enemy to his will made such an impression 'as to convince President Rickey that his pennant team for next year was in sight. Goodwin, in in his last three appearances, has allowed but two earned runs. “Goodwin has arrived,’’ Rickey exuberatoed, and that makes our pitching staff complete. The men now with us have made good, but have been overworked. With Hank the form he | | | shawed@ me down South and Tincup much improved, we will be ready to | face any club. | ‘‘In fact, the Cardinals of 1918 are | now practically determined with the | exception of an outfielder, for whon | we have been trying hard but with- | out success. We will put but two) names in the draft and will try to} arrange deals for two other men, to. round out the fielding department. | Otherwise the club as it stands will! take the field next spring, if acci- dents and military drafts do not cut us down.”’ Goodwin at His Best. Goodwin, in fact, pitched the Chi- cagoans dizzy, save in one inning,: when he was aided in extricating himself from trouble by sharp field- ing by his infield. The opening game, yesterday, was of the type that ought to go into the archives of oblivion—wherever that is. It was wild and woozy and the good right arm of ene Paulette, abetted by His solid concrete super- structure, tossed away the Cardinals’ chance. With the Cardinals out in front, Paulette dubbed a _ grounder) to begin with, allowing a score: then he threw the ball balloon high in the direction of third base, allowing an- other. The final count was to 5, and that two-run handicap to his club cost it the game. Paulette, how- ever, has earned the right to a few misplays by his previous good work. Lord Byron Tamed. Lord Byron, minus his burst of song, and some of his arrogance, handled the first contest rather bet- ter than on his last visit here, when he was consigned to the field um- piring job during the series, to avoid exciting the grandstand ' squirrels. The management was not in favor of | any nut-cracking episodes, such occurred to Billy Evans at Browns’ park. Not that the Cardinal management favors Byron. It still believes that somewhere on the map there is as unsatisfactory an umpire as Byron; but that this spot is not in the ma- jor leagues. “Byron should have stopped Mitchell and the Cubs in their wilful attempts to delay the first game when they saw rain comjng,” Rickey complained. “‘He could have cut them short at any time—he waited too as | house.” As a matter of fact, the Cubs, be- ing behind, with rain falling before the needed five innings had been completed, decided to play it safe and delay proceedings until time was called. Byron did block this plan, while the rain turned traitor on the Cubs and ceased falling. Which was fortunate for the Cubs, as they won out. Lord Byron was not 4iscredited with the National League through any appeal by the irate fans of St. Louis, it has been learned via the New York offices of the league. When Byron was here before, he pleased Vice President Jas. C, Jones so little that, in a public statement, Jones invited all fans present at one game to wire President Tener what they thought of Lord Byron as an umpire, It was the first time a club offi- cial had everappealedto the mob for judgment against 2 league arbitra- tor. Reports from New York state that only six men sent telegrams, as re- quested, and two of these are anony- Whether this is vindication for Lord Byron, or merely an unwil- lingness to spend telegraph tolls in denouncing him is a matter for in- dividual decision. BASEBALL BRIEFS The Red sSox scored only one run in 18 innings against Shawkey and Fisher of the Yankees and suffered a double defeat, and incidentally lost two full lengths to the White Sox who won both games from the Tigers. Four players, McInnis, Athletics: Rice, Nationals: Groh, Reds, and Schmidt, Pirates, broke into the se- lect circle by making four hits in the Labor day contests.

DRAWS A PENALTY FOR ROUGH RIDING Maxwelton Officials Hand Out First Suspension of Meet When Rubicon Wins. The first suspension of a jockey for infractions of the rules occurred yes- terday at Maxwelton when Presiding Judge Joe Murphy announced that Roy Lowe had been indefinitely barred from further participation in the meet. Murphy stated chat the basis for Lowe’s punishment was rough riding, and until reinstated, he will not be permitted to show. Lowe rode Rubicon II to victory in the third race and it is presumed it was upon this mount that he violated the ethics of clean horsemanship. Rubicon was a 7-2 shot in a field of 11 starters and inasmuch as the bookies classed it as a “dogs’ race,” meaning that any of the 11 to face the barrier had a chance at victory, they hung what little favoritism there was on Lowe’s mount. Lowe Puts on Steam. Turning into the stretch, Rubicon held an advantage of a nose, but it was obvious that he was fast tiring. It was then that Lowe threw every- thing he possessed into the balance and hard pressed by Bogy Johnson, applied the whip and rode home the winner. Lowe was permitted to ride B. A. Jones in the sixth race, follow- ing Which his suspension was an- nounced. The Labor Day Handicap, the fea- ture race of the day, was by all odds the best, and for the first time during the meeting the crowd grew enthusi- astic. While 10 horses were nomi- nated, five owners refused to accept the weights accorded them and ths field narrowed down to five starters. The J. W. Fuller entries, Tokay and Dorothy Dean, were made 9 to 5 fa- vorites and they ran one, two; Daddy Holbert, after leading for three-quar- ters of the way, being forced into the show position. Crowd Largest Thus Far. The attendance was the best of the meeting thus far, but still consider- ably under the estimate the officials had hoped for. A terrific windstorm that blew up just previous to start- ing time, unquestionably minimized attendance. Conservative estimates placed the gathering at between 6000 and 6500. It was generally supposed that at least 30,000 would have to at- tend yesterday to give the promoters a profit, as they figured the crowds during the -emainder of the week will just about gain an even break on the expenses. Hiram N. Moore, attorney for the association which is conducting the current meeting, yesterday denied that the promoters would toss in the sponge today, a track rumor that gained wide circulation late last week. Moore reiterated the statement of Joe Murphy that the meeting would be conducted through as scheduled and that both Murphy and his back- er, H. S. Koppin of Detroit, were will- ing to accept a loss if such might show at the close. No Mention of Closing. ‘There was a meeting of officials and owners this morning,” said Moore yesterday, “and everything I can think of was discussed. There was no mention made, to my recollection, of closing the gates, nor was there even a hint that the owners them- selves might take over the affair to the extent of guaranteeing the purses.” Murphy was inclined to blame in- clement weather and not lack of in- terest for failure of a capacity crowd to attend yesterday. He contended that the showing was above expacta- tions in a manner, because of the wind and rain which appeared just before starting time. Today is the sixth day of the meet- ing and the usual half dozen races will be offered, tbe first starting at 3 o’tlock. YESTERDAY’S FIGHTS Mike Gibbons of St. Paul shaded Jack Dillon of Indianapolis in ev- ery round of their 19-round no- decision fight at Terre Haute. Fred Fulton of Mineapolis was awarded a decision over Carl Morris of Oklahoma in the sixth round of their scheduled 15-round bout at Canton, O. Morris is said to have fouled from the start, and the bout was finally stopped by the referee. Benny Leonard stopped Young Rector of Jersey City at Toronto in the fifth round of a six-round battle. Jim Coffey, the Trish heavy- weight, outfought Bartley Mad- den of New York in that city ina 10-round bout. Tom Gibbons of St. Paul, won the decision over Gus Christie in a 15-round bout at Dayton, O Soldier Rartfield and Ted Lewis fought a i%-round draw in Buf- falo. New Castle, Ind—Bud Ross shaded Don Curley, four rounds. Freddie Rosen drew with Jack McHenry, six rounds. i ST LOU J S PO joie! TIE 4 SPORT TPALAD OTOL Try This on Your Piccolo.

Jones’ | Men Open Last Home Stand of Season Today Leading White Sox Will Be First Opponents for Browns, Play- ing Two Games. After the brief road trip on which the elub won only one game out of eight played, the Browns return home today for their final stand of the season. The leading White Spx, who are out in front by six and one- half games, are the first rivals for the men of Jones, calling tor two contests. After the Sox come the Ti- gers for four battles. Sept. 10, 11, 12 and 13 are open dates und then the Indians Come Sept. 14 and 15. These will be the last at home clashes of the season for Jones’ band. During the engagements on for- eign soil, the Browns dropped four out of five to the White Sox and three straight to the Indians, two of the drubbings at the hands of the Fohlmen coming yesterday. In the morning game with Cleve- land, Bob Groom weakened in the fifth inning, when the Indians put over eight runs and landed the vic- tory, 9—3. Klepfer let up a bit at the finish and let the Browns tally three times. The Indians were forced to travel 12 rounds before winning the p. m. battle, 7—6. In this frame Ernie Koob, the third flinger used, passed Roth, and he scored a moment later when Evans banged out a triple. There's no telling who Jones will pitch in today’s game wrth the pace- makers. ROWLAND SAYS WEAVER WILL BE READY TO PLAY Chicago's baseball idols—the White Sox—detrained this morning, ready to tackle our berated Brownies in a series.of two games, one today and the final tomorrow. Commy’s toil- ers are making a desperate bid for the American League bunting and just now are backing in the front sun with a six and one-half game lead over the Red Sox, runnersup. Manager Clarence Rowland issued a statement shortly after arrival this morning to the effect that “Chick” Gandil, first sacker, is ailing with a lame back, but probably will per- form this afternoon.

CAR SHORTAGE CAUSES DETROIT TO ABANDON PROPOSED RACE MEET Joseph A. Murphy announced yes- | terday that it would be impossible to give the proposed meeting at Detroit this fall on account of the shortage of cars due to war conditions. Re- ports to the track were that 5600 horses were tied un at Saratoga ow- ing to the shortage of cars. The cards at Belmont Park are very light in consequence.

THE POST-DISPATCH DAILY REPORT OF MARKETS AND FINA —— ae HEAVY SELLING IN THE STOCK MARKET CAUSES __ RATHER VIOLENT BREAK * U. S. Steel and Other Standard Issues Lose 2 to 3 Points After Being Sharply Higher in the Early Trading. By aoaeee Wire From the New York ureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Sept. 4.—The Even- ing Post, in its eopyrighted financial review tofr™*, @ ys: “The three-day cessation of trad- ing, with its accumulation of news— the definite rejection, of the more radical war profit taxation proposals in the Senate, the German occupu.a- tion of Riga, the reception in Ger- many of the President's peace reply, the continuance of the Italian offen- sive and the remarkable fall in the exchange reserye—com bined to maxe today’s market unusually interesting. “Opening with advances of 1 and 2 points over Friday’s closing prices, industrial and railroad stocks con- tinued firm in the early trading. Be- fore the end of the forenoon, how- ever, there was a sharp decline in New York Central shares, which soon broke more than 6 points from the high price of the day. St. Paul, New Haven, Reading, Union Pacific and other railroad shares soon fol- lowed, with breaks of 4 points and more. The selling finally spread to the industriAl shares, United States Steel, which had risen 2 points in the morning, fell more than 6 points in the afternoon decline.”’ Railroads Are Weak. “The only news which accompa- nied the break in the railroad shares was the publication of a number of July reports. For the total of all lines the New York Central showed an increase in gross earnings of $3,- 900,181 over’ the corresponding month of last year, while net earn- ings, after taxes, fell off $780,679. The Pennsylvania system’s Eastern lines disclosed a gain in net earnings for the month, and the Western lines a decline; but for all lines gross earn- ings increased $5,697,506, and net earnings advanced $212,746. The Erie Railroad, with the highest July sross earnings in four’ years, re- turned the lowest July net earnings in that period, “It should be remarked that the increases in freight rates granted by the Interstate Commerce Com mis- sion had by no means gone fully into effect in July. In official classifica- tion territory for instance, railroads did not put any increases into effect until July 16, and then only on cer- tain classes of freight. The full ef- fect of the increases will not be seen until the August returns. “One of the most interesting items in the June detailed Statement of foreign commerce, just at hand, is that relating to gold exports. Of the unprecedented gold exports of $67,- 164,268 in June. $15,983,400 went to Spain and $38, 413,250 to Japan. In the entire 12 months ending with June the total exports to Spain , $70,360,741, and to Japan $110.50 313, and it is _ noteworthy that o these amounts $41,394,502 went t Spain in the three months of our w Pparticipation—April, May and June— alone. “The explanation of these shipments ——-that to Spain for instance, in the face of our favorable balance of trade and a discount placed by the Bank of Spain of 6 per cent on American gold coin—largely lies in the fact that Great Britain, by selling Amer- fean securities here by huge borrow. ing, and by shipments of gold to this center, has kept sterling rates here within about 2 per cent below parity. while it has not protected so well its other exchanges. Consequently, exchange dealers in those centers have been seliing sterling exchange in New York and withdrawing our gold.

Frost damage reports from the Nortb- west had a bullish effect on corn. Most of the crop injury was done in Minnesota and North Dakota. aan prices, which ranged from c off to Ke advance, with December at $1.11% to $1.11% and May at $1.07% to $1.08, were followed by an advance ali around to well above Satur- wba finish Cate sympathized with the strength of Offerings were unusually light. » ~ *- quotations on hogs pulled down provisions.
