Stand. BERLIN, via London, Sept. 18.— The Pan-German Tages Zeitung, chafing under the persistent rumors that Germany has decided :to yield Belgium, calls on the Government to make an unequivocal declaration of its purpose. Von Reventlow’s pa- imperial Government had concluded to abandon the idea of maintaining cn adenen over the territory of the peoples of the former kingdom of Belgium and adds that such conclu- sions are said to have been arrived at by authoritative factors in the pres- ence of the Emperor. The paper de- clares: “We desire to emphasize that a mere semi-official contradiction to the effect that no Crown Council 4:4 been in session or that any similarly constituted body:~ had met for the purpose would be of no avail and would only contribute to the existing feeling of urtrest.”’ — Civil Governorship of Belgium Left Vacant. LONDON, Sept. 18.—German newspapers point out, says the cor-’ respondent at Amsterdam of the Exchange Telegraph Co., that after the resignation of Dr. von Sandt, the Civil Governor of Belgium, his as- sistant, Hérr von Lutz, algo resigned. No successors have yet been ap- pointed. The resignations are said by the German newspapers to be in con- junction with Germany's plans re- garding the future of Belgium. ‘PROTESTS PROVE KAISER FEELS INDICTMENT BY THE PRESIDENT’ Engineered Attacks on Wilson Show Appreciation of Tendency Against _Autocracy, Says London Chronicle.

Pittman of the Canadian army in the Fifth Regiment’s Y. M. C. A. tent last night. Maj. Pittman assured his hearers the war would last long enough fr them to get into it. He urged them to pay particular attention to plys- ical training for the terrific strain of campaigning which the American forces in France will undergo. He explained the. French platoon. sys- tem which. likely will be adopted oy the United States army’ under the reorganization plan being perfected bythe .War. Department. . In. this style of attack every man 48°38, speé~- cialist with some particular weapon and all must thoroughly understand how to use every weapon assigned to their particular branch of the service: | tty “This is a junior. officers’ war.” Maj. Pittman declared. “From the time. he.

With the British armies it is ‘“ ‘corme on, boys,’ not ‘go on.’ The Germans usually quit: in the pinch. because there is no one to drive them when they are beyond the control of their officers.”’ MAN LIABLE FOR GERMAN ARMY SERVICE TAKEN IN U, S, DRAFT Exemption Claim, Based on, Ground That He Will Be Executed if Captured, Is Denied.

Collective Selling Bill Taken Up. WASHINGTON, Sept. 18.—Senate consideration of the administration bill to permit American business con- cerns to operate collective selling agency abroad, began today. The measure passed the House on June —_ Premier Painleve Reads Declara- Yen Arrangement Is Made to Supply Sol- diers at Camp Doniphan Construction of Pipe From Lake. FORT SILL, Ok.; Sept. 18.—That = Doniphan might have water the' city of Lawton has given up its water system for the exclusive use of the camp until a.new 24-inch pipe line now under construction from Lake Lawtonka to the fort can be completed. Test wells also are being dug on the military reservation, to doubly insure the supply. One of these test wells, dug last week to a depth of 23 feet, encount- ered water-bearing gravel at 15 feet. The flow was so rapid at the 23-foot level that workmen were cumpelled to abandon their task and pumps were set to work. This well,if an un- derground lake has been tapped, will supply the remount station. The re- mount station, now-under construc- tion, will accommodate 10,000 horses. The use of lime for latrine pur- poses, heretofore common in the army, has been replaced at Camp Doniphan by a system of oil burning that has proved more effective. Its use has demonstrated that flies can be virtually exterminated at an army camp. . wee ree PRIMERS HAD GIVEN TROUBLE, ARSENAL COMMANDER SAYS WASHINGTON, Sept. 18.—Inquiry into the manufacture of defective cartridges at the Frankford arsenal continued before the House Military subcommittee today with several of- ficers of the plant as witnesses. | Col. George Montgomery, command- ing officer at the plant who was chief witness at yesterday’s hearing, told how there had been trouble with primers since last January, resulting in. the condemning of millions of them by the arsenal’s chief inspec- Htor, of the purchase of primers from \private manufacturers and the per- manent substitution in June of a pri- vately owned primer. A ehemical defect which the in- spectors could not detect was re- sponsible for the difficulty, the Col- onel said, though he suggested that the committee should go into that question with the chief chemist. In addition to the, chemical deteriora- tion, he said, there had been insuf- ficient drying of primers in crowded ammunition warehouses. In response to a query as to wheth- er the Government did not have the right to expect its chemists to find damaging elements in ammunition, the witness said private concerns paid much higher wages to their 13, last. chemists. poets bo PST oie eS oe s Soe ges ‘"F bist ; BS Ze [ So See eee it: Se 1 WED DUKE IN ROME ne Van Valkenburg, Divorcee, Ad- vised to Arrange Ceremony ROME, Sept. evidence divor Agne York. was less desertion. speaking Euclid. years old. lowing year, Dramatic, in London. | regarding —_——_— than 31 years old. 18.—-Mrs. Philip Van Valkenburg of New York was informed by the American embassy yesterday that her propdésed mar- riage to the Duke of Oporto, brother of the late King Carlos of Portugal, preferably should be arranges: to take place in London: While Mrs. Van Valkenburg has a Connecticut divorce certificate, is believed that the best solution of her difficulty would be fownd in a noncatholic country. where divorced persons can be rematfried in a re- ligious ceremony and also in a coun- try where the relatives of the pros- pective husband can offer no objec- tion to both a civil marriage.

' : Lieut. Paul Pr asa French flyer, and Maj. C. K. Rhine- hardt of the Scott sie instruction staff, carried on a competition in this daring work yesterday, each dupli- eating the other's feats. Some of the loops were made so near the ground as to incur the criticism of Capt. A! G. Boyriven, chief o fthe Frenc aviation instructors now in the Unit- ed States. He said such looping should visiting mot be done at a height.of less than 1500; feet, ;andy,he estimated’ that it, was done in some cases at 500 feet. Yesterday was inspection day, and Maj. O. A. Brindley of the Signal Re- serve Corps, stationed at Washington, watched the special feats, which were performed in solo flights of the in- structors, and the regular instruction flying, in which students’ accom- panied the teachers. First Ldop in a Curtiss. The first loop ina Curtiss machine at Scott Field was made yesterday morning -by Civilian Instructor Wil- liam H. Couch.. He took the new machine to a height of about 2000 feet and started over, making sev- eral loops. He was ‘followed by Maj. Rhinehardt, Capt. Boyriven and Lieut. Prevost, all of whom took their machine through similar ma- neuvers. Maj. George E. A. Reinburg made his first filght since assuming com- mand of Scott Field. He took up one of the Curtiss planes and made two circuits of the field. The .ma- chine.never before had been used, so he tried nothing but straight fly- ing. The most dangerous “stunt” is known as, “stalling.” pilot starts his machine up as if’ he were about to make a loop. Instead of sending the machine over and completing the circle, he keeps it pointed skyward until the load be- comes too much for the engine to pull and it stops. The machine then starts down tail first. The pilot re- leases all controls, and, after falling many feet, the machihe automatical- ly turns and start a “nose dive” for the earth. The pilot then starts the engine by raising the nose of the machine in a sudden movement, which gives the propeller enough of a twist to start the motor. The Valuc of Altitude. _, Capt. yriven used this *“‘stunt’”’ to illustrate why a machine should never be looped or stalled cldse to the ground. “If you start down, as you are sure to do after a stall or a loop,” ha hateted out, “the only thing that looking The* will save you is altitude. Your ma- chine will right itself if you are high enough in the air, all the pilot has to to is nothing, just sit there and let his machine do'the work. “If he is close to the, ground, it is different. There is not enough space for the machine to right itself and the result is likely to be a smash-up.”’ Capt. Boyriven, after finishing his inspection tour, declared it to be an absolutele necessity that a fast battle plane be brought to Scott Field to be used as a “finishing school’ for the students. He pointed out, that, be- cause of the smallness and speed of |Foreign Minister the fighting inachine, they are much more difficult ‘to handle until the pilot ‘becomes accustomed to them, and therefore should be used in training, as well as larger and slower machines. Capt. Boyriven departed last night for Washington. The first accident since the opening of Scott Field occurred in the after-- noon. A Curtiss machine, with the number ‘13 painted in large black letters on the side of the fusilage, ‘nosed’ into the ground, breaking off both’ blades of. the propellor and springing ; the wings. Instructor Jones, the pilot, was uninjured. The accident ‘occurred, he ~° explained, when he was forced to land in the same direction as the wind was blow- ing,fand the wheels of »the» plane struck asditch,. causing it to topple forward. 700-HORSE POWER ITALIAN AIRPLANE TO FLYIN U, S, Speed Is 140 Miles an Hour, While Another Will Make 157 Miles; One Type Carries Nine Guns. WASHINGTON, Sept. 18.—Four Italian airplanes piloted by Italian army aviatérs are to fly from Lang- ley Field at Hampton Roads to Washington just as soon as the weather clears from the recent coast- al gale. One of the planes will carry 10 passengers in addition to the pilot, while the others will have on. board an observer as well as the pilot. A big Caproni will be operated by Lieut. Resnati and the smaller ones will be Pamilio, Lieut.«Baldioli; a Fiat, Lieut. Ballerini, and a Macchi, Lieut. Adamoli. The big Caproni is a bombing plane, while the Pomilio and the Fiat are reconnaissance ma- chines. The Macchi is a fighting seaplane and very speedy. Lieut. Ballerini and Alessandro Pomilio, an Italian engineer now in this country, explained today ‘that thé growth of the aeroplane industry in Italy was remarkable. At the declaration of war between Italy and Austria there were about 80 ma- chines, all of a French type, in Italy. The. Italians now have 3000 ma- chines, many of types developed in Italy. There are 25 factories making aeroplanes employing thousands of men and women. One of the lates* achievements of Italian engineers is a triplane of the Caproni type which carries nine quick-firing guns. | A number of the other Italian planes are soon expected at Langley Field, one of them. with a speed of 157 miles and a climbing. capacity of 10,000 feet in six minutes. -Another with a single engine developing 700- horsepower will oi tue a speed wf 140 miles.

BUENOS AIRES, Sept. 18.—Dr. Luis B. Molina, the Argentine Min- ister at Berlin, has informed the Ar- gentine Foreign Office by cable that the German Government had ex- pressed regrets over the actions of Count von Luxburg, the German Minister to Argentina. Dr. Molina re- ported that Baron von dem Bussche- Haddenhausen, Undersecretary of the German Foreign Office, had in- formed him that Germany disap- proved of expressions used by Count von Luxburg in: his dispatches. The Undersecretary, who acted for Dr. von Kuehlmann, ‘the German Foreign Secretary during his absence in Munich, asked the Argentine Min- ister to request the Argentine Gov- ernment to notify Count von Luxburg that the German Government wished him to return immediately to :Ger- many to explain the entire matter. Dr. Molina was asked to obtain a safe conduct for Count von Luxburg. Count: von Luxburg ahnounced that he probably would sail on Sept. 28 for Bilbao, Spain, ona "Spanish steamer. Foreign Minister Pueyrredon, ‘aft- er reading Dr. Molina’s cablegram, announced that he declined to accept the assurances of Baron von Dem Bussche-Haddenhausen as a satisfac- tory settlement of the Luxburg inci- dent, because it 'was, merely the ver- bal statement of an Undersecretary. The ‘Argentine Foreign Office, is awaiting a formal note from the Ger- man' Government before closing the incident. , The Foreign Minister reiterated that there will be a rupture of rela- tions with Germany if the latter’s ex- planation of the Luxburg incident is not absolutely satisfactory. .

GERARD TELL DOGS AND FEVER — IN PRISON CAMPS German Officials Made Little Effort to Be Hu- = mane, Even Towards the Sick, and Canine Watchers Harried Men in the Prison Com- pound---Generals to Whom He Complained Said He Insulted Them Personally. mK ri soe their services. Americen Ambassador to the German Imperial Court, July 28, .<°s 1913, to February 4, 1917. ne Public Ledger Compa nternational copyright, 1 be prosecuted. -NDOUBTEDLY the worst prison camp which I visited in Germany * was that of Wittenberg. ‘Wittenberg is the ancient town where Luther lived and nailed his thesis to the church door. The camp was situated just outside the city in a very unattractive spot next to the railway. An outbreak of typhus fever prevented us from visiting the camp, although Mr. Jackson conversed with some of the prisoners from outside the Warrier of barbed wire. With Mr. Charles H. Russell Jr. I visited the camp. Typhus fever seems to be-continually present in Russia. It is carried by the body louse, and it is*transmitted from one person to another. Russian soldiers seem to earry.the disease with them without apparently suffering much from it them- selves, The Russian soldies arriving at Wittenberg were not properly dis- , and in consequence typhus fever broke out in camp. Jeveral British medical officers were there with their prisoners, be- causé, by the provisions of The Hague conventions, captured medical of- fice « may be kept with the troops of their nation, if prisoners have need These medical officers protested with the camp com- mander against the herding together of the French and British prisoners with he Russians, who, as I have said, were suffering from typhus fever. But the camp commander said, “You will have to know your allies.” And he kept all of his prisoners together, and thus as surely condemned to deathia number of French and British prisoners of war as though he had stood them against the wall and ordered,them shot by a firing squad. Frightful Conditions at Wittenberg. Gonditions in the camp during the period of this epidemic were fright- ful. The camp was virtually deserted by the Germans, and I understand that the German doctor did not make as many visits to the camp as the situation required. At the time I visited the camp the typhus epidemic, of course, had been stamped out. The Germans employed a large number of police dogs in this camp, and these dogs not only were used in watching the outside of the camp.in order to prevent the escape of prisoners, but were used within the camp; Many complaints were made to me by prisoners concerning these dogs, prisoners stating that men had been bitten by the dogs. It seemed undoltbtedly true that the prisoners there had been knocked about and beaten in a terrible manner by their guards, and one guard went so far as to’strike one of the British medical officers in the camp. There were about thirty-seven ci-; had been there all through the ty-| box stall, or so closely that the beds opyright, 1917, b Publig edger : emt, Ss rese of ‘My Four Years in Ger- in which the Amcrican diplemat recounts his expe- "BY JAMES W. GERARD ed. Any infringement wi 191 7, b Copyright. Canada, 1917, by the the Public Ledger Company. S OF al of these civilian prisoners to the general civilian camp at Ruhleben, and the conditions at Wittenberg may be judged by the fact that when it was announced to these civilians that they were to be taken from Witten- berg to another camp, one of them was so excited by the news of release that he fell dead upon the spot. “In talking over conditions at Wit- tenberg with Von Jagow I said, “Sup- pose I go back to Wittenberg and shoot some of these dogs, what can vou do to me?” Soon after the dogs disappeared from the camp. The Food Supplied to Prisoners. The food in all these camps for ci- vilians and for private soldiers was about the same. It consisted of an allowance of bread of the same weight as that given the civilian pop- ulation. This was given out in the morning with a cup of something called coffee, but which in reality was an extract of acorns or some- thing of the kind without milk or sugar; in the middle of the day, a bowl of thick soup in which the quantity of meat was gradually di- minished as war went on as well as the amount of potatoes, for which at a later period turnips and carrots were, to a large extent, substituted; and in the evening, in good camps, there was some sort of thick soup. given out or an apple, or an almost infinitesimal piece of cheese or sau- sage. In the War Department at Berlin there was a prisoners-of-war depart- ment in charge of Colonel, later Gen- eral Friedrich. This department, however, did not seem to be in @ po- sition to issue orders to the corps commahders commanding the army corps within their districts. Col. Friedrich, however, and his assistants endeavored to standardize the treat- ment of prisoners of war in the dif- ferent corps districts,‘and were able to exert a certain amount of pressure on the corps commanders. They de- termined on the general reprisals to be taken in connection with prisoners of war. Col. Friedrich’s System of Reprisals. For instance, when some of the Germans who had been taken pris- oners by the English, and who were in England, were sent by the En- glish to work in the harbor of Havre, the Germans retaliated by sending about four times the number of En- glish prisoners to work at Libau in the part of Russia then occupied by the Germans. Put while the English permitted our embassy in Paris to in- spect the prisoners of war at Havre, the Germans for months refused to allow me permission to send any one to inspect those British prisoners at Libau. I did not find the Germans at all efficient in the handling of prisoners of war. The authority was so divid- ed that it was hard to find who wa; responsible for any given bad condi- tions. For instance, for a long peri- od of time I contended with the German authorities for better living conditions at the civilian camp of Ruhleben. I was promised time aad again by Col. Friedrich, by the camp commander and by the Foreign Of- fice that these conditions would be remedied. In that camp men of edu- cation, men in delicate health, were compelled to sleep:and live six in a |camp. : nmin form this work. Secretaries Ruddock ance of five marks a week, thus per- mitting them to buy little luxuries outside walls of which were only for:r feet high. . Finally, almost in despair, I wrote identical personal letters, after hav- ing exhausted all ordinary diplomatic steps, to Gen. von Kessel, command- er of the Mark of Brandenberg; to the commander of the corps district in which the Ruhleben camp was si-- uated, and to the Minister of War, and the only result was that each of the officers addressed claimed thai he had been personally insulted by me, because I had presumed to call his attention to the inhuman cond'!- tions under which the prisoners were compelled to live in the Ruhleben The commander of this civilian camp of Ruhleben was a very hand- some old gentleman named Count Schwerin. His second in command for a long time was a Baron Taube. Both of these officers had been long retired from the army and were given these prison commands at the com- mencement of the war. Both of them were naturally kind-hearted, but curiously sensitive, and not always of even temper. On the whole, I think that they sympathized with the prisoners, and did their best to obtain a bettering of the conditions of their confinement. The prisoners organized themselves in their various barracks, each barrack having a bar- rack captain of the barrack, the cap- tains electing one of their number as a camp captain or “obmann.”’ English Prisoners Were Obstreperous The man who finally appeared as head man of the camp was an ex- cinematograph proprietor - named Powell. In my mind, he, assisted by Beaumont and other captains, con- ducted the affairs of the camp— given the difficulty of dealing with the prisoners on one hand and the prison authorities on the other hand —as well as possible. Naturally, he ‘was always subject to opposition from many prisoners, from whom those of aristocratic tendencies ob- jected to being under the control of one, not of the highest caste in En- gland, and there were others who either envied him his authority or desired his place. The camp author- ities allowed Powell to visit the em- bassy at least once a week; in that way I was enabled to keep in direct touch with the camp. At two periods during my stay in Berlin I spent enough days at the camp to enable every prisoner who had a complaint of any kind to personally present it|# to me. The organization of this camp was quite extraordinary. I found it im- possible to get English prisoners to perform the ordinary work of clean- ing up the camp, etc., always ex- pected of prisoners themselves, and so, with:the funds furnished me from |} the British Government, the camp captain was compelled to pay & num- ber of the poorer prisoners to per- and Kirk of our embassy performed the uninteresting and arduous work of superintending these payments as well as our other financial affairs. This work was most trying, and they deserve great credit for their self- denial. Additions to the Camp Diet. By arrangement with the British Government, I was also enabled to pay the poorer prisoners an allow- J re villag prisoners in the camp who! phus epidemic.

Act- ing with. Powell, I succeeded get- ting the German authorities to turn over the kitchens to the prisoners, Four of the prisoners who did most excellent self-denying work in these kitchens deserve to be specially men- tioned. ‘They were Ernst L. Pyke, Herbert Kastner, Richard H. Carrad and George Fergusson. The men in this camp subsisted to a great extent upon the packages of | food sent to them from England and necessities and ex: . food at the camp oanteen, which ./as early es- tablished in the camp. I also fur- nished the capital to the camp can- teen, enabling it to make its pur- chases and carry on its business. In this establishment everything could be purchased which’ was purchasea- ble in Germany, and, for months aft- er the commencement of the war, articles of luxury were sold at a profit and articles of food sold at a loss for the benefit of those who re- quired an addition to the camp diet. There was a street in the camp of little barracks or booths which. the prisoners christened Bond street, Credit must be given to the German ‘ authorities for the fairly prompt and efficient delivery of the packages of food sent from England, Denmark and Switzerland to prisoners of war in all camps, (To be continued in the Post-Dis- eile SAMPLES Ladies New Fall Coats, Suits, Dresses In all the latest styles and shades.

A. Hanger, Fer- guson was interrogated as to the al- legations contained in each of the 21 articles of impeachment. He tes- tified the payment of his personal note of $5600 out of the Canyon City Normal fund was without his knowl-. edge and that the first time he knew of this having been done was when he was called before the grand jury of this county a few weeks ago. He excused his action in having deposit- ed in the Temple State Bank several hundred thousand dollars of public funds when same should have been paid directly into the State Treasury by asserting he understood this had been the practice of previous offi- clals of the State. He contended he had not profited personally by these heavy deposits in the bank. The third article of impeachment, which relates to the arrangement which Ferguson made for the Houston Na- tional Exchange Bank to take up two of his notes for $37,500, each held by the Temple State Bank, brought forth the admission that his purpose in this transaction was to| prevent the discovery being made by the House investigating, committee that the Temple State Bank held these two notes. Law Violated. “For the matter to have become public,” he said, “that the bank held these two notes might not have hurt me, but it might have hurt the de- positors of the Temple State Bank. I wanted to pay those notes because the investigation was coming on and so as to avoid any unnecessary dis- cussion of the bank’s affairs. The charge would have been made that I unloaded worthless notes on the bank of which I was a stockholder.” It was shown by Ferguson's testi- mony that he had borrowed more money from the Temple State Bank than its combined capital and sur- plus, which was in violation of the State’s banking law as applied to the | - officials of that institution. There is curiosity as to whether Ferguson will still refuse to answer questions propounded by counsel for the prosecution in regard to the - mitted, when on the stand in the House proceedings, he borrowed from friends to pay his personal debts.

AUSTIN, Tex., Sept. 18.—It was wtih no studied pose that James E. Ferguson. Texas’ suspended Gover- nor, who is on trial for impeachment, yesterday told the story of his early life’ before the Senate high court. There has been hardly a phase of the Governor's private life that has not been revealed to the public by the testimony given in the preceding investigations of his public and pri- vate acts by the House of Represent- atives and the present trial for im- pedchment. According to his own testimony, Ferguson’s wealth now amounts in property holdings to something like $700,000. At one point in his recital he dramatically exclaimed: “I hope God Almighty may strike me dead right now if I ever tried to profit i cent from any State account in any bank. The whole amount that could have been made from the funds of the Canyon City Normal School. had § interest been paid on it, would not have in- terested anybody. If the bank had been guilty of charging interest on this account, my part as a stockhold- er would have been only about $500. How any man could say that I would sell my. official position and my honor for $500 is beyond my comprehen- sion.”’ Ferguson told the Senate that he was 64 years old, was born on a farm sevén miles south of Belton, Tex. His father was a Methodist minister. When Ferguson was 4 years old the father died, leaving a little rural homestead as his sole legacy to his widow and children. Picked Cotton at Age of 16. “T didn’t get much schooling,” sad Ferguson. “I saw the last of the little country school when I was .i6 years old. I got out into the worl: then.

TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 18, 1917. ‘ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH ‘ aT OUTLINES DUTY OF BUSINESS MEN IN THE WAR ‘they Should Change Word ‘:, “Duty” to “Opportunity,” He Tells Chamber of Commerce. Sonne WORKING FAST 4 ‘* Declares No Body Ever Has his es complished as Much Within + aes Five. Months. or 1. ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept. -18. '#+—Business men asking their duty to «the nation in war were told by Sec- ‘ deentio Lane, addressing the war con- | tion of the Chamber of Com- : “merce of the United States here to- . “day, to change the word “duty” to . “opportunity” and seek the answer > from the khaki-clad American boys ‘ who are crosstitg the ocean. ‘“We ve come upon a new day and a ‘new philosophy,” he said. “We are » to judge men henceforward not by ' what they have, but by what they + give.” ™ 2 ™ "The Secretary declared that the United States, having determined to/| ~*~” fight Germany’s efforts to master the ™* world “with high explosives and low intrigue,” was making full steam ahead. “If anyone doubts that,” he added, “let him look at the record of Con- gress which has come in for so much dertsion and reproach. I presume to say that no other parliamentary body in so short a time ever passed go great a volume of well-considered and productive legislation as has our present Congress in the past five months. What Congress Has Done. “We have supplied money for our friends, raised an army of a million and a quarter, inaugurated a new in- dustry—that of making aeroplanes— revived a dead industry—that of building ships, placed powers over exports and prices, over industries and resources, in the hands of the President that will give him the wea- pons he needs, made laws to punish domestic enemies and courageously placed the burden of taxation upon those who can best bear up under it—this is a record that no nation has excelled. It is a record that ' ghows purpose, an unflinching pur- pose. “We of America, it is conceded, know how to make money and we will prove that we know how to make war, whole-hearted, resolute war— war that means organization, ma- chinery, science, war that means men by the million and money by the billion, war that means heart-break- ings, ruined hopes, a little glory per- haps, a certain self-respect, a world that men can grow in. - “We shall make war in earnest, for we know that if Germany wins the world will turn aside from the system of law and liberty which we know and exalt that military caste and system which is the historic en- emy of personal liberty. We make war in France that we may not be) compelled to do battle here. Let Germany have Canada or Mexico, or even Cuba, and we would go to our daily work like the pilgrim fathers with our guns in our hands. ' “This is in truth most distinctly our war, for we claim proudly that we gave the impulse to Europe which turned its face toward democ- racy and for that reason in fight- ing with France, England, Italy and Russia, we fight for those who fol- low in the way we led, true children of the American conception of gov- ernment as a servant, not a master. “Tt is now 1900 years since Caeser defeated the Germans in France. When they came asking terms he said to them: ‘Go back whence you came, repair the damage you have done and give hostages to keep peace for the future.’ It was the ancient and barbaric custom to take Princes and high men as hostages, and this custom Germany followed when she entered Belgium. But the world does not ask such hostages today. It is the problem of world statesmanship to discover what kind of hostage Ger- many can give when she has been convinced that her dream of world- over mastery cannot come true.” Business Backs Government. American business has no intention of profiting at the expense of tho Government in the sale of war sup- plies, R. G. Rhett of Charleston, J. C., president of the Chamber of Com- merce of the United States, declared in opening the convention. “There undoubtedly have been cases where selfishness and greed have outweighed patriotism, but the cases have been exceptional,” he said. “And the great body of busi- ness men have invariably stood squarely behind the Government in its plans and proposals. “The business men of America will let the world know that whatever the cost, whatever the sacrifice, they propose to place evéry resource it their command behind the Govern- ment and its allies in their detrmina- tion to see that liberty, democracy, civilization and humanity prevail.” .8t.

The cho- rus of women, in their white summer frocks, had a frostbitten look, and those in the audience -who ventured forth without overcoats and cloaks soon regretted their recklessness. ‘However, the situation was accepted «= philosophically, and many, the Mu- _nicipal Theater’s meterological rec- = ord being notorious, consoled them- hel selves with the reflection that at least it didn’t rain. Quartet of Soloists Admirable. proved one of the best ever given by the society, and not unfrequently af- forded the thrill which beauty and power of singing more than any oth- er form of music can compel. The quartet of soloists was admirable, and was in fact probably as excel- lent a one as has been recently assembled here. Of Whitehill, America’s leading baritone, it is only necessary to say that he repeated his triumph in the same role of Elijah last winter at the Odeon. Through his vocal diffi- culties, he sometimes had a tendency to sing sharp, in addition -to his hoarseness—shone forth his veteran artistry as an interpreter, his sensi- tiveness to every change of mood in the music, his command of a voice that at its best is organ-like in rich- ness and volume. His clearness in enunciating the English text was a treat to the ear. Forest Lamont, tenor, who sang Canio in “I’Pagliacci’”’ recently at the Municipal Theater, proved more at home in oratorio than in opera, prob- ably because the former makes less aramatie demands. In oratorio the lightness of his voice was little han- dicap and full justice could be done to its real sweetness and sympathetic quality, as well as to the singer’s re- finement and style. Miss Kline and Mrs. Alcock, new- comers here, at once gained the au- dience’s favor, the former displaying a soprano of flute-like- purity and delicacy, and the latter a contralto cf sumptuous timbre. Mrs. Alcock’s singing of the famous air, ‘‘O Rest in the Lord,”’ was notable for opulence of voice and fervor of expression. Miscellaneous Program Tonight. The chorus of 150 mixed _ voices ond the orchestra of about 50. pieces, under the direction of Frederick Fischer, did excellent work through- out. The orchestra being placed on the stage instead of in the pit, was heard to better advantage than ever before in this theater. Exception might be taken at places to a lack of flexibility in the director’s beat; for tion. onight, at the same theater—or at the Coliseum in case of rain—the so- ciety will give a miscellaneous pro- gram of instrumental and vocal num- bers, taken from opera and oratorio. ‘Last night's soloists will take part. Whitehill, a former Bayreuth star, will offer two Wagnerian arias, ‘““Wo- tan’s Farewell,” from “Die Walkure,” and thé “King’s Prayer,” from ‘“Lo- hengrin.”’ WORK OF PLACING QUEBEC BRIDGE SPAN IS RESUMED Engineers Expect to Hoist It 68 Feet Today, to Bring It Within 54 Feet of Final Position. QUEBEC, Sept. 18.—Lifting opera- tions to put into place the 640-foot central span of the Quebec bridge were resumed here early today. Yes- terday the span was carried upward 28 feet from the pontoons and the engineers in charge said they expec*- ed to add 68 feet today, which would bring it within 64 feet of its final resting place. : The span is being elevated two feet at a time, in contrast to the three-foot lifts which marked the at tempt to raise a span into place in 1916, when 14 lives were lost as it broke from its moorings in midair and plunged into the river. It was stated that the 6000-ton mass of metal varied five-eighths of an inch from the computations as t» how far it would bring down the cantilevers after the scows had float- ed from beneath it.

By Leased \Vire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch, NEW YORK, Sept. 18.—George Arliss seems to have committed him- self to the not always grateful task of shedding the stage’s light upon history. He has already devoted him- self to the illumination of two such contrasting personages of the past as Disraeli and Paganini, and now he is, at the Knickerbocker Theater, giving life to a playwright’s conception of Alexander Hamilton. ° The author of this new drama, ‘“‘Hamilton,” is Mary Hamilton, who for a collaborator, had the expert as- sistance of Mr. Arliss himself. Their choice of Alexander Hamilton as the prototype of a stage character placed him on safe ground. Washington, Lincoln, Grant and other famous na- tional personages, when they have appealed to the fancy of the play- wright, have marked the path to theatrical disaster. There is danger in appropriating from history great figures who have not receded far enough into the past to dim their outlines. With Hamilton the case is differ- ent. No he-never-told-a-lie tradition clings to him. Conceded by many chroniclers to be the most brilliant statesman and lawyer of his time, famous as one of the framers of our Constitution and the founder of our national banking system, his per- sconality and peculiarities are un- known to most people of the present day. To them it seems enough to know that he died before his time in a duel with Aaron Burr. And they might have made a more vital selec- tion for the purposes of their play. The plot is concerned with Hamil- ton’s persistent fight to force the Federal Government to assume the debts of the bankrupt states. In this contest he is opposed by Jefferson Japanese valet in this production is the real thing, racially and ‘histrion- ically.

Larsen, a guest at the Beers Hotel, Grand avenue and Olive street, was arrested last night by Health Department detectives on a charge of practicing medicine with- out a license. | In a warrant against Larsen it was alleged that an agent of the Health Department went to him for treatment and.

SITE FOR REDUCTION PLANT North St. Louis Business Men’s Asso- ciation Declares Hauling Nearby Would Be a Nuisance. Twenty members of the North 8t, Louis Business Men’s Association ap- peared this morning before the Board of Public Service to object to the lo- cation at the foot of North Market street of the proposed experimental garbage reduction plant. Alderman Niederluecke and A. 8. Werremeyer, president of the asso- clation, said that even if the reduc- tion of garbage was odorless in the plant, the hauling of garbage to it and the accumulation of garbage awaiting reduction would constitute a nuisance and would injure property values in the neighborhood. In the experimental plant the city will use the Hirsh method.of garbage reduc- tion, involving. a secret chemical process, The Board of Public Service has three sites for the proposed experi- mental plant ‘under’ consideration.

When digging entrenchments caithout regard to concealment, the excavated soil is first of all thrown _ ¢o the front or enemy’s side of the trench, thus temporary cover is ob- ‘tained. When the entrenchment has “®eached the proper depth the arti- » Metal raising of the ground is leveled. e artificially raised wn as the parapet. On the com- | pletion of the parapet, the soil is thrown to the rear side of the trench, “Yhus forming the parados which gives a protection from the rear. - + §lope Should Be Gradual. - Tt is not a good policy to excavate : front of the parapet, but to get ad- onal height and thickness as ly as possible this is often done. less carefully watched, men will this dirt from places as near the pet as possible, resulting in the ‘weakening or total undermining of ~ the parapet or trench wall.

In normal circumstances, by - Which I mean when not exposed to an unduly vigorous machine gun or artillery fire, the soil should not be taken from in front of the trench in the manner described above, closer ~ than 10 to 15 feet from the actual parapet, unless the holes are ade- portion is' quately protected by trip wire, as well as barbed wire. Cases have oc- curred when valuable information has been obtained by the enemy ly- ing in holes thus dug and not prop- erly protected. Blend With Surroundings. The parapet should be kept as low as possible and made to blend with its surroundings as much as possible. This is done by taking great care to cover any signs which show that fresh work has been done, even to the extent of actually planting grass- es, weeds and roots, such as grow in the immediate neighborhood, and giving every encouragement to those that already grow. This greatly hin- ders the enemy's artillery, as it changes positions up and down the line; interfering with and hindering the observations and accurate rang ing by their forward observing offi- cers, checking charts turned over by relieved batteries. Bullet-proof nature of a parapet maturally depends on the soil of which it is composed. Although it is not necessary to memorize the minimum ‘of safety, you should keep a general rule in your head. The feet, regardless of kind of soil. When the trench has been carefully sited for the actual field of fire from a ground level, this thickness is best obtained by raising the ground level] artificially as little as possible and getting the necessary depth by dig- ging, unless prevented by moisture.

The parados gives protection from the effect of shell fire bursting be- hind the trench, and should be made fireproof as soon as possible, al- though it is not necessary unless con- cealment is possible to level it down in a similar manner to the parapet. As a matter of fact, it should be at least a foot higher than the parapet, thus providing a background for the parapet. It has been known to hap- pen that when the occupants of a trench have been reached by the enemy they have vacated their trench and used the parados as a parapet, much to the surprise and disgust of the enemy. In a high and irregular parados, places could even be found which when not used steadily pro- vide unexpected and safe observation and sniping posts, but care must be taken that they are not used too often. Depth of Trenches. If a trench were used merely for firing; four and one-half feet from bottom of trench to top of parapet would be a sufficient depth. During attack, however, when fire from loop- holes is tooo restricted, exposure of head and sholders over the parapet becomes necessary, but it is not nec- essary to expose men moving along the trench and not actually firing. If the trench should be seven or eight feet deep, you must provide a plat- form at the bottom of the front wall one and one-fourth feet wide and four and one-half feet from the top of the parapet. This is called a fire- step. The rest of the trench can be deepened to any desired depth, de- pending on the energy displayed. If of an ordinary depth, steps must be cut to the fire platform.

When these conditions are run into, breast work parapets must bs artificially built up above ground level with soil, sods and sandbags, supported by sandbags, hurdles or close wire netting, revetment and stakes. The same principles of thick- ness, depth, width, slopes, and, in fact, everything that applies to a dug-in trench, applies to breast works. : (To Be Continued.) GERTIE REYNOLDS I$ MADE M’QUAIDE ADMINISTRATOR Dancer Married to Englishman Five Months After Death of Amer- ican Millionaire. NEW YORK, Sept. 18.—Mrs. Ger- trude McQuaide-North, who before her marriage to James P. McQuaide, one of the Carnegie group of million- aires, was Gertie Reynolds, known in this country and England as a dancer, received letters of adminis- tration on the estate of McQuaide by a decision made by Surrogate Fowler here yesterday. Letters of adminis- tration had been granted to Mre. Sarah H. McQuaide, a divorced wife, on the ground that McQuaide had died inerstate, and the action which cancels the letters of Mrs. Sarah Mc- Quaide, was taken after a will had/ been found. McQuaide was founder of the National Conduit and Cable Co. He died in July, 1915, at his villa in Twickenham, England, and in De- cember of the game year Mrs. Mc- Quaide was married to Hylton George Morton North, a nephew of the sixth Earl of Guilford, and has since lived in England. She did not appear in the proceedings here. As Gertie Reynolds, Mrs. Mc- Quaide-North toured the United States and England after a series of Broadway successes.

PARIS, Sept. 18.—The military authorities have had to settle a knot- ty question. In the case of a military polygamist being killed, how should the. widow’s pension be allotted?

This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. «uss plain mulsified cocoanut oil (which iv pure and entiro- ly greaseless), is much ‘better than the most expensive soap or anything else vou can use for shampooing, as this can’t possibly injure the hair. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoon- fuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky. bright, fluffy and easy to man- age. “You ean get mulsified cocoanut oil at most any drug store.

WOMAN HEARD 2 SHOTS Is Positive Shooting at Spring Near Her Home Was Well After Dark. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CONCORD, N. C., Sept. 18.—So- licitor Hayden Clement, the prose- cuting officer of this judicial district. was unable to come here today to begin his preliminary inquiry into the death of Mrs. Maude A. King, who was shot to death near here on the night of Aug. 29. He sent word he would make Concord his headquar- ters tomorrow or Thursday. Many new and interesting things have been brought to light in the last two days and Solicitor Clement is anxious to have them all properly assembled be- fore the reopening of the inquest Monday. Action against Gaston Bullock Means took definite shape when he was served with a subpena in re- ceivership proceedings brought in Greensboro before Federal Judge Boyd. In accordance with a court order he is restrained from disposing .|}served with the of or in any way interfering with the estate of Mrs. King. Means was subpena at his father’s home. The subpena is returnable in Ashe- ville on Oct. 8. Mrs. Anna L. Rob- inson, mother of Mrs. King, who is the instigator of the proceedings, has been stopping at Asheville for sev- eral weeks. . The action is brought by P. C. McDuffie, the Atlanta lawyer retained by Mrs. Robinson. Mrs: Robinson listed an automobile and valuable jewelry as among her daughter’s property. Witness Heard Two Shots. One of the interesting develop- ments is the story of Mrs. Hamp H. Blackwelder, whose home is near the spring where Mrs. King was killed when a member of an automobile party headed by Gaston Means. Mrs. Blackwelder heard the two shots, one of which ended the life of Mrs. King. Most important, perhaps, of Mrs. Blackwelder’s statements, is that re- lating to the time of the shooting. Mrs. Blackwelder is positive that it was well after dark when she heard the two shots. Charles S. Dry, a neighboring farmer, has already stated it was after 8 o’clock when he heard the shots. At such an hour the glen, in which the spring is, is very dark. It would not be a rea- sonable place for a target shooting party to practice. Means and his companions have been positive in their declarations that they went out for target shooting. It has been de- clared it was daylight when they reached the spring. It was @ark enough, however, for Means to light a match to see, as he declared at the first inquest, “whether there were any bugs in the drinking cup at the spring.”’ Capt. W. S. Bingham, another of the party, has declared that after the shots when Gaston Means called to him and Afton Means to “come quick’’ he was able to see Mrs. King’s face by reason of the rays of the moon that came through the foliage. Mrs. Blackwelder had been away since two days following the shoot- ing and upon her return from Ashe- ville yesterday she was introduced into the case by stating she had heard the shooting. Mrs. Foraker to Be Questioned. Mrs. J. Benson Foraker, who in- troduced herself mysteriously into Concord by registering under the name of “Mrs. K. Smith, New York,” has not taken her departure for New York. She had announced her in- tention to hurry to New York to con- sult with District Attorney Swann. She intimates a deep knowledge of the affairs of Gaston Means and Mrs. King. Mrs. Foraker has been requested by Solicitor Clement to remain in Concord until tomorrow that he may talk with her concerning her “‘in- timate knowledge of Mrs. King’s and Gaston Means’ affairs.” | Mrs. Foraker appeared on the main street yesterday in a scarlet coat with big pearl buttons and a rakish little black hat. All the young men in Concord keep their eyes on the St. Cloud Hotel for the appear- ance of the daughter-in-law of the late Senator from Ohio. Why she is in Concord is not def- initely explained. She has stated tnat she camé here to see Gaston B. Means about business affairs and has intimated that Means handled money for her and that she is anx- ious for an accounting. She is not being overly cultivated by Means or his family. She spends the greater portion of her time in her room. Mrs. King’s Sister Still Ill. Mrs. Matzie Melvin, sister of Mrs. King, who has been closely confined to the Means home here since the taking of her sister’s body to Chi- cago, appeared on the street yester- day for the first time in several days. Mrs. Melvin has been under the care of a nurse and efforts to talk with her have proved unavailing. Solicitor Clement is determined to have Mrs. Melvin as a witness at next Monday’s inquest, and says that even though she may plead iliness, he will have the case carried along from day to day that she may re- cover and appear. Solicitor Clem- ent has received photographic cop- ies of all the evidence adduced be- fore the Coroner in Chicago follow- ing the exhuming of Mrs. King’s body and the subsequent inquiry, and this will be extensively used in the new inquiry. announced yesterday that Gaston Means had agreed to submit to So- licitor Clement certain papers, let- ters, bank books and accounts of Mrs. King, but that he had refused to deliver the documents to the cus- tody of the State, as ordered last Friday by Judge Cline. No action by the Court on the refusal will be taken, Judge Cline safd, until the Solicitor has had ah opportunity ‘o determine whether the papers had any bearing on the mysterious deatn of the Chicago widow. District Attorney Swann of New York has beeh asked to deliver to Sdélicitor Clement for use at the Coro- ner’s inquest next Monday the origi- nal purported second will of the late James C. King, husband of the dead woman. Documents Indicate Means Had Dealings With Capt. von Papen. NEW YORK, Sept. 18—Papers and memorafida found in-the apart- ment here of Gaston B. Means indi- cate he had business dealings with Capt, Franz von Papen, recalled Ger- mah naval attache, “which were not favorable to the allies,” according to a statement by Assistant District Attorney Dooling. Names mentionéd in the mem- oranda, according to Dooling, in- clude those of séevéral United States Sénators and Represetitatives. There also was found information concern- ing the output of manufacturing plants in various parts of the coun try, some of which were manufac- turing munitions for the United States and the entente allies. —— = Buy from “Day” today—Raincoats Day Rubber Co., 415 N. 4th st.—ADV.

McCall Tells Envoys Na- tion Has Chance to Repay Its Debt to Civilization. BOSTON, Sept. 18.—The Japanese mission was welcomed to Boston to- day by a great crowd, notwithstand- ing a disagreeable rainstorm. Troops shed stood at present-arms while a band hailed the guests with the J2» anese national anthem as they stepped from the train. There was an informal parade i. automobiles to the _ statehousce, where the party was greeted by Gov. McCall. After a brief reception, the visitors went into the convention which is sitting to revise the State Constitution. The Governor, in welcoming the mission, alluded to the visit of Com- modore Perry to Japan which opened the doors of the empire to the rest of the world. But it was not all gain when the Japanese exchanged their “serene isolation for a restless and an almost haggard civilization,” he said. ‘The Western nations appar- ently have unleashed forces which they cannot control. Those portents of energy called into being -by the inventive genius of man have come to threaten us with mastery and we are in danger of becoming their victims and their slaves. Japan will far more than repay any debt she may owe our Western civilization if she shall impart to it something of her old repose and help subordinate its mighty engines to the use and not tw the destruction of men.” Addressing the convention, count Ishii said: *“‘Massachusetts and New England are very close to Japan. Many of our Vis- ings the impressions and the educa- tion which has enabled them to take their places in the varying walks of life in their home land. *“*Massachusetts and New England have wielded a vast influence upon the civilization of our time. In lit- erature, art, science and industry that influence has been felt and is being exercised throughout the world.” The Viscount paid a cordial tribute to the late Henry Willard Denison, whom he described as “for over thirty years the guide, the counsellor and friend of Japan.” COSTA RIGA VIRTUALLY BREAKS WITH GERMANY All Teutons Ordered Interned and Congress Is Convened to Consid- er Plot Against Government. SAN JOSE, Costa Rica, Sept. 18.— Diplomatic ¢gelations between Costa Rica and Germany are considered severed, as the result of steps taken by the Government yesterday. Gen. Tinoco, the President, discovered that German residents here had joined vith some of the followers of former President Gonzalez in . conspiring agzainst the Government. Three of the most prominent Germans here, Kumpel, Altschul and Orlich, have been arrested. All Germans ~~ residing in Costa Rican ports have been ordered in- terned. President Tinoco has recalled Con- £ress in special session and will lay the matter before it. Gen. Tinoco, President of Costa Rica, assumed that office in January, 1917, when the Gonzalez Government was overthrown. Gonzalez appealed to the United States to intervene but the American Government took no action. In an election held in April, Gen. Tinoco was chosen President. The American Government, however, tas refused to recognize the Tinoco Government. There have been re- rorts several times since last April ihat Germans in Costa Rica and for- mer President Gonzalez. were impli- cated in a plot to depose Tinoco. FOOD SHORT IN NETHERLANDS Queen Asks All Her People to Co- operate to Save Nation. THE HAGUE, Sept. 18.—In the speech from the throne read by the Premier at the opening of the states general this afternoon, Queen Wil- helmina made an appeal for the co- operation of the people, without dis- tinction of class, “in order to main- tain ourselves amidst the growing distress of the nations.”’ The prospects for the winter, said the speech, were not very Satisfac- tory. ‘‘We continue to be obliged, amid fiercely contending enemies, to hold ourselves ready to ward off possible transgressions,” it continued. “It becomes continually more diffi- cult to supply our people with the necessities of life and the raw ma- terial for our industries. Measures will shortly be placed before you for the purpose of providing for the most urgent needs.” Oil Tank Explosion Sinks Yacht. NEW YORK, Sept. 18.—News of the sinking of the yacht Union, 1690 miles' east of Sydney, Cape Breton, five days ago as the result of ex- plosions in her oil tanks, reached here on the arrival by rail from Halifax of 64 members of the crew.

Other citizens have offered these objec- tions: 1—That The United Railways tracks, being two-inches wider. than standard guage, shut out interurbans. Both ordinances encourage interur- bans to build to St. Louis. Both reserve to the City the right to let interurbans use our tracks, or to lay tracks in thé adopted it unless forced to. The City’s idea, as nearly |as we can learn, was to prevent steam railroads from using the 2—That we are “trying to sell the system to the City for $60,000,- We don’t wish to. The City is forcing us to give it an option to buy at $60, 000,000, which we agree todo, on condi- _. tion that the City lower our taxes and quit injuring our credit by fighting our permit to do business. The $18,000,000 valuation is fixed by street t. ¥ailway tracks. ‘The odd guage wished onto us by the City has cost St. Louis street railways millions of dollars that could have been saved if standard bans, wishing to enter St. Louis, should not build to our guage if they want to use our tracks. basis for a general property tax and covers only track and operating equip- _ment. ‘It does not cover land, buildings, stocks, bonds and. other property of the Company. This other property is assessed and ‘taxed by the City. . 3—That we are paying too much for Keokuk power. The power we buy cost us less than half as much per kilowatt hour as the power we generate in our own steam- electric plants. At coal prices of five years ago the Company saved money . » 4-—That the ordinances “do not give the City control of the street ‘“vailways”. 3 Control over the street railways as to finances, service and equipment is now vested by State law jn the Missouri Pub- lic Service Commission.

For no loyal American, of whatever ancestry, whether German, Austrian or other natione!l- ity, would be willing to subscribe to any policy which lacks in loyalty to the United States or which might or could be construed as being treasonable in the slightest degree; and any paper of any language is deserving of dis- cipline if it falls to support the United States in our war against Germany. Italian descent. sianism were more obscure than now. body else's. war, can be easily understood. any and all conditions it is “For America First,” and adds this about that principle: If we govern our every action by it, we will and finally must succeed in overcoming al! | prejudice and convince our fellow-citizens that LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. _ We Must Win the War. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. We are fighting for freedom of the high seas, to which the Creator gave all men and nations alike a free and equa] title. ' It is immaterial who precipitated the war in Burope. There can be no doubt which Government forced us to rescind our neu- trality and enter it against our democratic Will, love of peace and aversion to human slaugiter. America drew her trusty sword only as a last resort and honor-bound al- ternative. "A true republic commits war only in self- G@efense or to free an oppressed people. It may seem strange and paradofical, but ve are battling for the best interests and fu- ture peace of the German subjects.

In the face of such declarations, belated but gratifying, will Congress be wise in adopting the Senate amendment to legislation now pending in the House requiring German-language papers |} to print English translations of certain of their utterances? : The requirement would not accomplish what impose on those papers what would in many cases amount to hardship. = = Se THE MILK PROBLEM IN NEW YORK. An increase from $2.20 to 83.60 a hundred pounds for milk, wholesale, is the demand of the milk producers’ combine of Southern Iilinols and Missouri, who are meeting the local distribu- tors today to fix prices. The Dairymen’s League, consisting of 14,000 members in six EBast- ern states, which supplies milk used in the City of New York, is demanding $3.10 a hundred, for October, and $3.34 a hundred, for November. Neither the cost of land, nor expenses of the dairyman, are lower in those Eastern states than in Illinois or Missouri. Why, then, are our pro- ducers demanding $3.50 a hundred at the begin- ning of the winter season? The New York milk producers and dealers have made preparations to let Food Administrator Hoover appoint an arbiter, to settle their differ- ences and suggest a schedule of prices. Why should not the producers and distributors who control the milk for St. Louis do the same? It to get at all the facts and come to a reasonable conclusion. HIGH COST OF FREE SPEECH. After a strike of seven days several thousand miners at Springfield, Ill., held, without interfer- ence, the parade and picnic they had been pre vented from holding the week before and then went back to work affirming their vindication of the right of free assembly and free speech. They chose a rather expensive method of vindication, though admittedly less expensive than the vindication of other times, for many men have sacrificed life in behalf of both these great rights. : But whose folly was it that made necessary a vindication even at this cost in @ country where both osu gram are the subject of solemn constitu- tional guarantees? Why should the exercise of the rights be purchased eat such loss to the men, to the public and to the industry at a time when increased coal production is_a patriotic duty? -=_— = THE GREATEST OFFENSIVB. Within a few weeks there will pe set in mo- the present war, an offensive that will not be halted because of lack of ammunition or inade- |quate transport, a pitiless offensive that will a by day, night by night with naught to avail against it. The heavy concreted line of the Meuse, the bulwarks of the Rhine and the impregnable fastnesses of the North Sea naval bases will not even cause in this new attack a moment's hesitation. Even today in the North, Field Marshal Frost, aided by the well-known merciless Gens. Boreas, Ice, Snow and Below-Zero Weather, are prepar- ing for the great offensive and never before has Germany been less able to withstand it. Even Prussian officialdom admits that this will be the most terrible winter that the central em- pires have gone through. Fuel is scarce, not be- cause of an actual lack of coal, but because of inefficient transport and loss of labor: Fats have almost become a memory. Clothing has become threadbare, with no stocks of wool and cotton for replacement, and leather shoes have almost disappeared. In the summer, clothing and fats mean but little, and one may be fairly happy even on an empty stomach. But in winter distress is dis- tress and not even the rosy promises of the Hin- denburgs and the Capelles can substitute for the Warmth of the sun. According to the German papers, it probably In no part of the American press has the duty of the foreign-language newspaper had & more admirable statement than In the Westliche gee nst St. Louls. Speaking of the charges agal rg eee tea Sa ial nae For, of course, it is “our” war—the war of the naturalized as well as native-born American, of the citizen of German descent as well as of the citizen of English or Scotch or Irish or French or } German-American opinion as to events preced- ing our participation in the war was misied in many cases., Ths methods and purposes of Prus- Reserv- ists and pro-Kaiser German-Americans were not as readily recognized as now. The plausible but false interpretations they placed on things were accepted by many German-Americans whose in- stinct was to be loyal to the country with which they had voluntarily identified themselves and to the Government which was as much theirs as any- How some such Germans persisted in their mistaken views, even after we entered the The Westliche Post declares itself on a matter of special importatree when it asserts that under ) livestock in Germany this winter because of the | lack of fodder and the need of fats.

Field Marshal Frost always comes back. nippy and you get ready to bawl out the janitor, stop for a second and warm your self with the thought that it is much colder in Germany and that Marshal Frost is in the height of his offen- sive on the side of the allies. . = = i i A CONSIDER THE BABIES! A final word to the milk producers and distrib- uters, meeting today, to come to an agreement as ter: Don’t forget the babies! You milk producers and dealers—many of you have babies of your own. They will not suffer if you increase the cost of milk to the mothers of the poor districts of the city. Your babies will get plenty of the best quality of milk, as they should. No one will grudge itto them. But what of the hundreds of babies who will go hungry, if you fail to remember their need? You milk producers may quote the heavy cost of feed during the winter months. That it is heavy we all know. But what of the long sum- met months when you were reaping a profit while the cows were on pasture? You milk dealérs are, of course, paying more for some of the items that go into your expense’accounts. But one of those items is not added cost of distribution. “You won the strike against your drivers, during which the milk consumers of the city suffered hardship because you chose to fight it out. Disease and death, to the helpless babies of the poor, will follow an increase in the cost of milk to the poor of the city, as night follows day. The milk producer can feed his cows silage, from the tremendous corn crop. Both producer and distrib- utor can economize in many ways. But the babies can assimilate nothing but milk, and the poor mother is already economizing to the last penny. Rickets and starvation for the baby, and despair for the poor mother will be the results of a display of greed on the part of those who have the gteat privilege and responsibility of producing and distributing this most necessary article of food. You will not do what has been contemplated, gentlemen of the milk industry. You have not the heart to face the coming winter with the knowledge thet a single baby’s death may be laid to your wheres. | —— —_— —_ a ae The time is coming soon fn eis when the voice of a Scheidemann, an Erzberger or a Har- den will develop into a roar, while the cries of a Hindenburg and a Von Capelle sink into an un- heard whisper. 2. = = — a” FOOD STORAGE PROBLEM. Assistant Secretary of Agriculture Vrooman points out that the country has a potato crop at least 100,000,000 bushels larger than its require- ments. He urges that the Government provide warehouses necessary to make use of this sur- plus “in such a way as to release products of equal food value to the army and the allies.” The Food Commissioner has the power to pro- vide warehouses, under the food control bill, under which the President is given power to requi- sition foods, feeds, fuels and other supplies, “and to requisition or otherwise provide storage facil- ities for such supplies.”” It will help the country, both in the conduct of the war and at home, to | have plenty of storage room, so that all food : products can be controlled and saved, especially those which, as in the case of the potato crop, are unusually plentiful. : The suggestion also should have the effect of bringing the market price of potatoes down to a reasonable figure. With an abundance, and with the Government regulating the distribution and preventing waste, there should be no excuse for starvation nee to the consumer, = = ~~ = Police Judges who fine wealthy drivers of automobiles for reckless speeding $500 and then reduce the penalty to $50 or $25 are not altogether blameless for the increase in motorcar accidents. = = = — eS GOITER PERSISTENOY. Hope in the human breast as a symbol of the eternality of things has long done duty, but it bids fair to be replaced by a younger rival. Can anything be more uncrushable than the move- ment to obtain a parole for A. H. Frederick? Nothing, unless it be a goiter alibi. Apparently all chance for the parole was an- nihilated a few weeks ago when the Barker affair was discovered. It will be remembered that a strong effort was being made to convince the State Prison Board that Frederick’s mind was impaired as the result of a goiter when he com- mitted his forgeries. The Real Estate Exchange produced evidence to the effect that he had de- frauded a Mrs. Barker in 1907, before the goiter was supposed to have made its appearance, Now an attorney advocating the parole has produced a check showing that Frederick had paid for goiter treatment in 1907, at the time the Barker affair was under way. The inference is, of ‘course, that he was mentally unsound then as well as afterwards. Perhaps it may be deemed supererogatory to point out that this was a most inconsistent goiter; that it wrecked his intellect enough to lead him into a series of intelligently thought out and mas- terfully concealed crimes, but did not interfere with it sufficiently to prevent him winning and holding the confidence of the people until he was able to be elected to one of the most important of public offices. It is not a goiter’s business to be consistent; but only to be persistent. . = = " — Se The German Foreign Office probably does not consider the Foreign Minister of Argentine quite as much of “an ass” as Luxburg, who has shown to price of milk to St. Louls consumers this win- ete rani - Ao Bak es fF ree Papier gh oer : RAS: EP ee LS oe bee eee Se tafe = a a id Y . “¥ cc ca ‘_ ’ La ‘ ? * ™~ " . » - t De een a 3 : a. 4 e - a F RDS 4 PR Oy oy * ’ . : 2 A ees Sere te : > "+ e+ all ‘a . t _ > . * eo ~e ° i « : ~~ i + ‘ . ” . > wd r. 7 » “> 7 4* , ine 4.

The Methodist choir was rendering ‘‘Will There Be Any Stars in My Orown?7’’ Each time the chorus closed with that burning question, the choir across the street would follow in well-timed precision with the closing words of an- other popular and well known hymn: ‘‘No, Not One; No, Not One.’’ an Brave attempt at English by a cobbler on Garrison avenue: Dhis Sohes : for sale : : Leides and mens $ de a ee i ee, ee ee ee ee ee oe oe oe es oe ae ee oe a er ee One of our sign hunters interprets it to mean that the gentleman has ladies’ and men’s shoes for sale.

HE sheep of the western islands of Scotland are almost as stylish. as the dogs that ride so proudly in automobiles. The canine aristocrats have occasional cavities in their teeth filled with gold, but the Scottish sheep have their entire set gold-plated before they have any , chance to decay. The gold-plating is due to gold dust in the soil. As early as 1536 Hestor Boece, Bishop of Aberdeen, speaks of the remark- able appearance of the sheep that roam “the golden mountain” in Cen- tral Aberceenshire. Their wool is yellow, their flesh is red, flecked as it were with saffon, and their teeth are the hue of gold, he says.—Pop- e-Coat || THE SANDMAN STORY FOR TONIGHT BY MRS, F. A. WALKER, | —"| The Sailor Boy’s. Love. AILOR BOY came to live one S Christmas day at the very same house with Miss Cilla Doll. 2 Cilla Doll's real name was Priscilla, but her little mother called her Cilla because she could not say the whole name. , Sailor Boy fell in love with Cilla Doll at first sight, so when the play- room was quiet that night he began to dance the sailor’s hornpipe right in front of the doll house where Cilla Doll lived. Miss Cilla Doll was very proud be- cause she was French, so she told the rest of the playroom folk, and she came from a very old family. When Cilla Doll heard all the noise right in front of her house _ she jumped from her little bed and put on her pink silk kimono and went 19 the window to look out. “How dreadfully noisy that Sailor Boy is,” she said to herself, hiding behind the curtain so she could not be seen. “He is really quite coarse with his loud laughing and dancing. I am afraid my little mother will not like him. I am sure I do not.” The next night Cilla Doll was not put to bed by her little mother; she was left sitting in a chair by the side of the house. Pim, Along came Sailor Boy as soon as the house was still and began to dance again, and then he saw Cilla. ‘Miss Cilla,” he said, taking off his hat and making a bow before her, | ‘T love you with all my heart and I ask you to be my wife.” “How dare you address me in this manner,” said Cilla Doll with flash- ing eyes. ‘I am from an old French family.”’ *O, I do not mind that,” said Sailor Boy, not understanding at all what proud Cilla meant. “I love you and you are young, and I do not mind foreigners at all. You see, I am @ satlor and I am used to them,” “Oh, you dreadful creature,” gasped Cilla Doll; “don’t you speak to me again.

It is some- times the part of wisdom to look wise.—Philadelphia Record. of dolls so Sailor Boy was put in the attic and there he stayed many, many long days, but he was jolly and gay in spite of all and sang and hobbled around at night, making all the attic inhabitants laugh with him. Then there came a day when the little mother grew too big for even Cilla Doll and the playroom was made into a bedroom and all the toys were given away, and Cilla Doll and her carriage were all that were saved. One day the attic door opened and Sailor Boy saw Cilla Doll wheeled in and left in one corner; then the door closed again and all was still. That night Sallor Boy did not sing and try to make the attic folk laugh as usual. He was thinking about Cilla Doll and wondering what happened to her, for he felt sure she had met with an accident to be brought to the attic. By and by he heard a sound of weeping coming right from Cilla Doll's carriage. ‘Tt is the doll who came this morn- ing,” said an old sofa standing near. “Poor thing; it is dreadful to grow old and have no one to care about you any more.” “What do you mean?” asked Sailor Boy. “She isn’t old—she is young and pretty.” “Oh! no she isn’t,”’ said the mirror nearby; ‘“‘she is old-fashioned, and the little girl who used to play with her is grown up, so the doll must be old.” Sailor Boy limped over to Cilla’s carriage; it was the first time he had tried to speak to her since she spurned him so cruelly, but his little heart was not only filled with pity, but with love as well. ‘Miss Cilla Doll,” he said, “don't you feel unhappy. The attic folk are nice and sociable and there are many here that belong to fine old families, too,” Cilla Doll lowered her pretty brown eyes and Sailor "Boy felt his heart beating hard and fast. He was going to tell her he still loved her in a min- ute, he knew, although he had not in- tended to when he began to talk. “How kind you are to speak to me,” said Cilla, wiping her eyes on a tiny cambric handkerchief, “‘and after the way I treated you years ago. Can you ever forgive me?” ‘Why, I forgave you years ago,”' said Sailor Boy. “Didn't you know that?” “No, I thought you must hate me all these years. I am 80 sorry for al] I said. Besides, it all was very silly, too,” replied Cilla. ‘“Let’s forget it then,” said Sailor Boy, with a twinkle in his eyes, “and I will begin all over just as if we had just met. I love you, Miss Cilla, and I ask you to become my wife.” Cilla Doll lowered her pretty brown eyes and Sailor Boy leaned toward her and kissed her on one pretty pink cheek. ‘We are going to have a wedding,” whispered the old mirror to the other attic folk. ‘It will seem like old times again.” “T thought she was too old for him”, said the old sofa. ‘Love never grows old,” replied the mirror, “and Cilla Doll looks just as pretty and young to Sailor Boy today as she did years ago. That is the way with true love.” ular Science Monthly. | (Copyright, 1917, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate, New York City.) REFLECTIONS.

There is only one flag in Burope that does not contain red, and that is the standard of Greece. After red, blue is the most frequently found flag color, but a great number of flags are entirely red except that they bear symbolic devices of one kind or an- other. Thus the flags of Egypt, Mo- rocco, Austria-Hungary and Japan are all red, while no fewer than 42 other countries display ped freely in their banners.

WEATHER CAUSES RSE IN THE CORN MARKET Futures Gain 3c on Low Temper- atures Over Canada Which Causes Frost Scare. Low temperatures over Canada’ gave corn traders the opportunity to start a frost scare in the late mar- ket on the Merchants’ Exchange to- day, and futures averaged about °c over yesterday's close. There was, however, considerable good selling on the advance as the corn crop has made rapid progress for the past week, and minor frost damage is ex- pected for the late crop every year. Oats were firm with corn and sold about 1%c higher. Receipts are over last year, but are light as compared with official estimates of the crop, end indicate that the farmer is dis- inclined to sell heavily at present cheap prices as compared with wheat and corn. The Liverpool wheat manket was steady today, with a better spot in- quiry. Export clearances lighter and continental demand good. Corn-- Spot is firmly held and export clear- ances are moderate. Oats are dull and easier. Purchases are limited and export offers increasing and American clearances’ satisfactory. United Kingdom and continental stocks are fair and with the native crops moving and Liberal floating quantity, it is believed that prices will remain more in buyers’ favor. The weather forecast said: “Hiinois — Fair tonight and Wednesday; probably unsettled Wednesday night; warmer tonight. “Missouri! — Fair tonight Wednesday; warmer. “Wisconsin and Iowa — Probably showers tonight gand Wednesday; cooler. “Minnesota — Showers tonight; Wednesday partly cloudy and cooler. “North and South Dakota, Nebras- ka and Kansas—Partly cloudy to- night and Wednesday; cooler.” In United Kingdom weather is wa- seasonable, cool and wet.
