The health of the men is excellent. No serious illness is reported. Ow- _ing to the state of constant. damp- ness, there are some colds. The of- _ficers agree that the course of train- ‘ing just before going into the trenches has been abundantly justi- fied, for the men generally are.phys- ‘ically fit. This is evident among the men ‘who go out at night into No Man’s _Land or those who dig communica- | tion trenches or drains in the marshy ground back of the lines. They dig so fast that they accomplish thetr work in half the time allotted. As a result the French are increas- ing. this stint of work for their own men. It was a great surprise to the officers, for it had not been expected that the Americans would be good diggers.

The greatest shock came on ‘north, where the JIsonzo first crossed. Here occurred the weak- ening of certain detachments of the i'second army which Gen.

The commanding | height of Monte Nero, which = the Italians had occupied after deeds of great valor, was defended against ;Onslaughts from three sides ‘which |gradually developed to envelopment Added to this was the sudidenness of the surprise blow from the north which developed into a turning fire before the southern armies and also on their extreme flank, gradu ally ex-. such pos- tending to their rear.

Food was scarce and many went without it for days, while sleep was impossi le. The mili- tary hospitals were eVyacuated to- gether with all other establishments and pale and wounded patients were ' obligéd to join the rear guard march or fall into the hands of the enemy.

Oth\) ers declared that it was a just pun-| ishment for his evil deeds, and that | the woman Gousiewa had not been | badly inspired when she had tried to revenge herself on him for the ter— rible wrong which he had done to -her. Every. one was anxious to learn ‘how the news would be received in ‘certain quarters and among the bevy of feminine worshipers whose exist- ence was wrapped up in that of Ras- putin.

DALLAS, Tex., Novy, 2,.— Miss | Myrtle Cunningham, 28 years old, shot here Wednesday night. by Mrs. Katharine Travers at the time the _latter shot and killed Phil E. Tucker, 'a Dallas broker, is not expected to recover. Miss Cunningham, who was highly respected, came to Dallas ifrom Indiana, Pa., a year ago, and | was employed as a stenographer in ‘Tucker's office. Complaints charging Mrs. Travy- ers with the murder of Tucker and with assault to kill Miss Cunningham were filed in the Justice court. Ex- iniining trials were set for Monday. Mrs. Travers, who asserts, accord- ing to police, that she had been “sneered at’’ by both Miss Cunning- ham and Tucker after the latter had failed to keep an alleged promise to Inarry -her, met the couple in a ' crowded street and fired twice. The _ first shot pierced Tucker's heart and the second penetrated Miss Cunning- ham’s abdomen.

Judge Hennings’ decision gives the history of the Mullanphy fund and of the boards which have ad- ministered it since it was found. The first. board was composed of the | 1872 | Mayor and 10 members. In membership was increased to 13 and | in 1915 control was placed by ordi-¢ nance in a board of three members, | managing the | who at present are fund on virtually the same plan as that originally provided, with the exception of an Emigrant Home, | | B's of settlers through St. which was discontinued several years | ago. The evidence, the decision sets forth, showed that during Mullan- 'phy’s life there was a large move- | |to the West, this being the distrib- uting and outfitting point. was a very large foreign immigra- tion coming from New | and Albert T.

It was Mullanphy’s desire to | == help all those who were worthy and | on their way as bona fide settlers. “At the beginning of the tration of the fund,” the states dminis- | ‘ cision , “it was custoamry a representative meet the boats trains and seek out those who were easily recognized as emigrants and offer asistance and advice. Some times as many as 300 would arrive on a single boat. As time went on this travel began to diminish. Dur- ing the year 1916 the number as- sisted was 132.” ihe! Methods Criticised. As to expense of administration of | the fund, Judge*Hennings points out | that from the beginning there was criticism of the manner in which the | fund was mahaged. “The expenses | were large and the relief trifling,’’ he states. The decision shows that | the total Income of the fund: from the time of faking it over by the city to the present date was approxi- | mately $1,950,000, of which sum, the | Court says, “the trifling amount of. | approximately $278, 000 was paid for | lrelief and $1,672,000 for manage- ment.” Judge ee in his opinion, ex- | = TMM — —-.

For a Fair Street Railway Settlement An Editorial: Street Car Company” This City’s need of more street car service, the right of thousands of St. Louis security holders to fair treatment, and the City Government’s duty to act promptly and justly are vigorously set forth in the following editorial published by Westliche Post a few days ago: ‘‘For months past the municipal authorities of St. Louis and representa- tives of the street car company have been holding conferences, to modify the com- pany’s franchises, part of which are not only obsolete but also contain elements incompatible with modern demands on public utility companies, and at the same time to guard the company against in- justice. ‘‘Hitherto all efforts have been unavailing, which is regrettable from all standpoints, because the situation cre- ated by the uncertainty must bring about the disintegration of the service and the demoralization of the value of the street railway property. ‘‘This latter point is as a rule too little thought of, although by right it should stand well in the foreground, be- cause thousands of shares of the com- pany’s stock and other securities are owned by small investors, and every de- preciation means for them a grievous per- sonal loss. Of course the authorities, responsible for the decision, must not give undue consideration to the stock- holders; but it would be radically wrong to neglect their interest, for they just like all other citizens are a part of the popue lation and have a right to be heard. ‘‘The simplest and most natural solution of these and other questions would doubtless be the municipalization of the street railway system and all other public utilities; but as long as this ideal cannot be realized, we must be satisfied with mutual compromises, in which the rights and duties of both parties should be carefully weighed. ‘The City Government owes to the citizens a double duty: in the first place it has to take care that the service reaches the highest degree of efficiency, and must besides reckon with the street railway as a source of revenue, in pro- portion to the value of the franchises. ‘‘The question of service has been solved by the managers of the company in a fairly satisfactory way, considering the present facilities. These, however, This Company knows as well as anyone how bacly some sections of St. Louis need more street car service, We know better than anyone the impossibility of getting it so long as the City .Government double-taxes us and attacks our permits to do business. This Company is eager to supply St. Louis with ample first class street car service at its fair cost and not a We are asking the City Government for nothing except that it make the Company free to use all of the street car earnings, over and above our JUST share of taxes, in pro- viding ample first class service for the whole community, under both City and State regulation. DO IT. ON ANY OTHER BASIS, NOBODY CAN DO IT. The editor of Westliche Post errs in assuming the City Government can justly claim any share of street car revenue as a tax on franchise values. such values in 1913. The United Railways Company — of St. “City and zre deplorably inadequate; there are still large areas of the City, especially in the South and Southwest, without direct street car connections. As a: result, on lines nearest to such districts, the cars are at certain hours so terribly over-crowded that it is a torture to the passengers. ‘This drawback could be rem- edied to a certain degree by developing the present loop system in the terminal points. It can be entirely abolished only by building new lines, whether subways or elevated. ‘‘Attempts have been made re- peatedly in the last eighteen years to solve these problems, but always failed because of the specter of a disreputable past, which since that time has been an insurmount- able obstacle to all traffic measures. ‘‘Because two decades ago brib- ery had to be employed to get the consent of an unscrupulous Board of Aldermen to an extension of the street railway sys- tem, even then acknowledged to be ab- solutely necessary for the welfare of the City, we still have to suffer from inade- quate service. This is'an absurdity so ridiculous that one does not know whether to laugh about it or to get exasperated. The whole matter is worthy of a satire and we have not given up hope that some St. Louisan anointed with the gift of poetry will be found to work it up. (We hope this may happen during our life time.) “But at present the most urgent need is to bring the deliberations between the City and the Company to an end—as speedily as possible. ‘‘Compromises on both sides are essential; it is the only way to accom- plish real progress, which can never be reached by obstinate hair-splitting or by an ideal platform Socialism. We have to stand firmly on the plane of reality, to be guarded against sliding backward. | This is our paramount duty with regard to the settlement of the street car question —overdue as it is for the past twenty years.” ON THAT BASIS, WE CAN Louis TAL ee ————— — —_ -_- —- =e Ra OP a i tO AEE ARS LEONE EE ae Vis fensbhad totes hiatal are with us atways—and they read the Post-Dispatch Ads, a Try a3 Time Ad. = ee ee = lle The State confiscated all “> WG,

' I look for net results still more for-|¢ midable. “The jubmarine warfare amounts to this: Our defense during the last | seven ménths proved so efficacious | that in spite of the increased number | of ships passing through the danger | gone there has been steady reduction in the damage done by submarines. We are sinking enemy submarines to an incredsing extent. Our offensive | are improving. ¢ Between Two Forces. © other hand the Germans le not attained their maxi- mum stréngth.

He has done it witha serious and heavy loss 40 himself. We may feel that his attack on our trade is being mhastered and we can look to, the futuré confident that he will fail.” Recalling the position of the Ger- man mercantile marine, Sir Eric said: many potsessed over 6,000,000 tons * of shipping. Today nearly half of it has been sunk or is in the hands of ourselyes or our allies. She has a 50 per cent reduction to our 14 per cent. “The British public should be told what we are up against. We/ must not consider ourselves alone, but the alliance as a whole.” He polhted out that while Great Britain has plenty coal for vic- tory, Italy and France have not, and it was essential that there should be the greatdst possible economy in food | and in all imports in order that ton- nage should be saved so that it may be diverted to other vital needs of. the alliance. He declared: “We must lay our plans for a long war.| I see no signs of its being a short one, and all by their econ- | omy can help the navies of the allies | defeat thd submarine. Allies Require Help. Sir Eri¢ urged Britons to do their utmost, ais there were greater calls) pon the shipping world. “The huge army of the United States,’ He said, “is preparing and has to te transported and main- ained. The French, Italian and other allies require seaboard help. That help can Only be given if the nation is prepared strictly and rigorously to ourtail ita needs, develop home re- sources atid conserve its present po- tential maritime strength.” It had been asked whether Great Britain was building merchant ton- 200. in ' “YJ wish to acknowledge fuily the The displacernent of the navy its 71 Just as coal, when it burns, leaves be- | |[§ styles for the young fellows— . omit ivi : ; g fellows—dig- | hind a certain amount of incombusti- | tila it an taln tov thn sldar isonet. to the greatest AS ble material in the form of ashes, se |i® ful new patterns—military attesh in overcoat Com- é ae to sustain the body. | the samo, period and territory.| lowed the First Lord in thé-House of | losses, challenged Sir Eric's figures | Commons frankly disagreed with! concerning the sinking of merchant | ‘valuable contribution made by the!per cent greater than in 1914, when it; him.
