Commenting upon the ° statement made by Secretary of War Baker be- fore a congressional committee re- garding war preparations, the semi- official Norddeutsche - Allgemeine Zeitung of Berlin says: “The American Secretary of War speaks of an. American army in France. There is an American army in France, but it consists entirely of wood cutters, railway men and doc- tors, except two or three divisions, whose precious lives are being spared “Mr, Baker speaks as if shortly there would be 1,500,000 Americans in France. Can the United States spare such a large number of men? The answer is no, because a large art of the army must remain be- ind for the protection of the fron- tiers, the coasts, the colonies and for other duties of a politica} nature. The political situation compels the United States to keep at home the greater proportion of its army and the country can at the most put only 400,000 or 500,000 men into the Eu- ropean battle fields.’’ CONDITION IN TEN YEARS Delegates to National.

Lang of 6180 Berlin avenue has retired fom the whisky business after being in it 45 years, and today made the announcement that he has kept books on his ex- penditures for revenue and tax pay- ments, the various sums he has con- tributed to fight prohibition and to charity. He finds, after casting up accounts, he says, that he has paid $1,880,000 in revenue taxes and $360,000 to anti-prohibition cam- paizgns and to. solicitors for charity. Lang conducted a wholesale liquor business, established by his father. at 208 South Fourth § street, and owned a distillery in Kentucky with an annual output of.about 16,000 barrels of whisky. He has sold the distillery to a soft drink manufac- turer and disposed of his stock of EAST SIDE PLANTS BREWERIES HERE MUST CUT THEIR COAL CONSUMPTION Will Be Allowed to Operate. on 25 Per Cent Less Fuel Than Usual.

They were the first to call on us when in dis- \ tress and the first to turn against us upon the least .pretext. So when I saw the business dragged into dis- repute, I resolved to be a dupe no longer.” Lang said he sold his distillery for 40 cents on the dollar, but received the market price for 2000 barrels of whisky, about $75,000. “But I’m not worrying about the temperature future,” he added;,"I have some good oil land in Oklahoma, 145 acres of which I recently leased to the Stand- ard Oil Co. for $40 &n atre and one- eighth of the oil.” Lang said he would devote the next few months to collecting out- standing accounts, which would wind up his connection with the whisky business. Lang’s firm ‘came into public notice a few years ago, when it was stated that his daughter was the “Son’’ in the firm of Lang & Son. He said today that originally he was the “Son” in the firm, the business hav- ing been established by his father.

Acid Plant Continues Operation. One large industrial establishment in East St. Louis followed the ‘“‘busi- ness as usual” plan today. This was the Commercial Acid Co., with 400 employes. A. B. Newman, general manager of the acid plant, said it was his understanding that the plant was exempt from the Garfield order, under its terms. He said that irre- parable damage would be done to the product, in process of manufac- ture, by letting the fires go out, and that fuel could not be saved without inflicting this damage. Therefore the company thought it best to keep its men at work. The Aluminum’Oré Co., with ed méeny had most of its employes at work, but officials said they were only cleaning up the yards, unload- ing coal cars and overhauling ma- chinery, and that only the necessary heat in the boilers was being main- tained.

COAL ORDER HARDEST ou WORKERS, ERS, GOMPERS: SAYS ‘Labor Will Maintain Loyal Stand, Despite Suffering, but . u Must Not WASHINGTON, Jan. 1s (By A; P.).—-The statement issued last night by Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of La- bor, said: “The shutting down of all indus- tries for five continuous days is only warranted if based upon immediate emergency and I have some doubt if five continuous days is the best measure, “The workers, the masses of the people, will be the greatest suffer- ers from this new order. Others have been or will be able to hoard their needs and supplies. Of course, the working people of America will maintain their Joyal stand despite their suffering and sacrifice which they may be called upon to bear; and |. yet everything must be done to see that they are not made to suffer un- necessarily.” He said he hoped that the captains of industry and business men would heed Dr. Garfield’s appeal not to allow labor to suffer by reason of the ahtutdown.

Sines liatioes WASHINGTON, Jan. 18 (By A. P.)-' —Fuel Administrator Garfield’s statement, issued last night, in ex- planation of his order shutting down industry, follows: ‘ “The most urgent thing to be done is to send to the American forces abroad and to the allies the food and war supplies which they vitally need. War munitions, food, manufactured articles of every description are lying in Atlantic ports in tens of thousands of tons,. where literally hundreds of ships, loaded with war goods for our men and the allies, cannot take the seas because their bunkers are empty of coal. The coal to send them on ytheir way is waiting behind the con- gested freight that has jammed all terminals. “It is worse than useless to bend our energies to more manufacturing when what we have already manu- factured lies at tidewater congesting terminal facilities, jamming the rail- road yards and ‘sidetracks, for long distances back into the country. No power on earth can move this freight into the war zone where it is needed until we supply the ships with fuel. Docks Must Be Cleared. “Once the docks are cleared of the valuable freight for which our men and associates in the war now wait in vain, then again our energies and power may be turned to manufacttr- ing more effectively than ever so that a steady and uninterrupted stream of vital supplies may be this nation’s answer to the allies’ cry for help. “It has been excess of production, in our war-time speeding up, that has done so much to cause conges- tion on our railroads, that has filled the freight yards to overflowing, that’ has cluttered the docks of our Atlantic ports with goods waiting to go abroad. At tidewater the flood of freight has stopped. The ships were unable to complete the jour- ney from our factories to the war depots behind the firjng line. Home Needs and Cold. TTS GOAL = WILL PREVENT CALAMITY Believes It Will Keep People in East Warm and_ Enable Them to Cook Their Food. By HERBERT BAYARD SWOPE, A Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dis and New York World. WASHINGTON, Jan. 18.—lIt can be stated duthoritatively that Pres- ident Wilson is satisfied that the order suspending certain forms of industrial enterprises is right and proper. He believes it will be ef- fective in correcting conditions that, left untouched, would work a na- tional calamity. He is standing squarely behind the action of the Fuel Administrator, which was taken only after an extended confer- ence participated in by the Presi- dent, Dr. Garfield, Secretary of War Baker and Secretary of the Navy Daniels. He believes that three great objectives will be achieved: 1. That the population of the Eastern sections will be kept warm and given the means of cooking their food. 2. That the hundreds of ships now awaiting coal will be enabled to carry their supplies to American forces and America’s friends abroad. 3. That industrials directly affect- ing war preparations will be en- abled to proceed under full steam, as all the important ones in this class are specifically exempted from the operations of the act. Administration’s Attitude. The administration’s attitude may be defined as regarding the order as a check upon the use of coal by nonessential industries, which action had been advocated for some time. The difference is a difference of de- gree and not of principle, in the view of the President’s advisers. In- stead of specificaNy singling out in- dustries that are not to be coaled, the terms. of.the order indicate these are to be given a full allotment. In other words, the terms are stated positively instead of negatively. The correspondent was informed that the administration gave consid- eration to these points in issuing the order: That the President stands behind it unqualifiedly. That it is an act necessitated by TUTONE PRES STATED VER EAE PARLEYS People Warned Against Undue Optimism; Outbreaks in Aus- tein’ Ainalioat Keheeall LONDON, Jan. 18 (By A. P.).— The political situation in Germany and the relations with Russia con- tinue to be agitated in the German press. The ‘Frankfurter Zeitung warns its readers against undue op- timisny in regard to the negotiations with the Russians, whom it accuses of attempting to hinder the. pro- ceedings, both at Brest-Litovsk and at Petrograd, for their own interests. The Volkstimme of Mannheim, a Socialist paper says that serious popular demonstrations against the Gtrman annexationist policy oc- curred at Budapest and other towns in Hungary and Austria after Chan- cellor von Hertling made his state- ment in the Reichstag. These out- breaks, the newspaper adds, are symptomatic of what might happen in the dual monarchy if the nego- tiations should be broken off on ac- count of the German policy. Reports continue to be heard of the breaking up of meetings ar- land party, but it is difficult to as- ranged by the annexationist Father-: sent to the Berlin market one half the normal and lished explanation is that foodstuffs and other goods which have accu- mulated at certain centers must be distributed. Correspondents who send the.reports to London say, however, that there is every reason to believe the transfer of troops to the western front is the rea! reason adding that it is rep these troops are to be moved suddenly for a concentrated offensive. German Internal Conditions. The Times publishes a long report. attributed to a neutral who has made au. extended stay in Germany, de- scribing internal condition. The writer reiterates that the effects of the food shortage are severe, espe- cially among the children, who ev- erywhere show signs of underfeed- ing. It is apparent that tuberculosis is working havoc, especially among the young, while contagious dysen- tery has not ceased with the arrival of winter. It is attributable to bad food. The decline in the birth rate, this observer continues, is causing great anxiety. The shortage of coal in Berlin is another source of trouble.

We will grant only the existence of Germany. In 1870 it was quite easy to esti- mate the historical significance of thé war. “If the Prussians win, the centralization of state powers will further the centralization of the Ger- man working class." And now? What would be the result of the Ger- man working class of a Prussian vic- tory now? a The only teritorial expansion which the German working clase could welcome, because it would complete the onal unity, is a union of Austria with Ger- many. Any other expansion of the German fatherland means another step towards the transformation of ‘nationalities, and the consequent in- troduction of all these conditions which render more difficult the class struggle of the proletariat. ‘Ludwig Frank hoped—and he ex- ' pressed this hope in the language of a belated Lassallian—that later, aft- er a victorious war, he would devote biinself to the work of the “internal building up” of the state. There is né doubt that Germany will need this “internal building up” after a victory no less than before the war. But will a victory make this work easier? There is nothing in Ger- many'’s historical experiences any more than in those of any other country to justify sucha hope. Victory Menace to Socialism. “We regarded the doings of the rulers of Germany (after the vic- topies of 1870) as a _,matter of course,’’ says Bebel in his autobiog- phy. “It was merely an illusion of.the party executive to believe that a more liberal spirit would prevail! in the new order. And this more liberal regime was to be granted by the same man who had till then shown himself the greatest enemy, I will not gay of democratic develop- ment, but even of every liberal ten- dency, ahd who now as victor plant- ed the heel of his Cuirassier boot on the neck of the new empire.” (Vol. IT; p. 188.) . : There is absolutely no reasen to expect different results now from a victory from above. On ‘con- trary. In 1870 Prussian’ junkerdom had first to adapt itself to the new intperial order. It could not feel se- " etre in the saddle all at once. It was eight years after the victory ._@ver France that the anti-Socialist ' ‘laws were passed. In 44 years Prus- sian junkerdom has become the im- lal junkerdom. And if, after aif a‘century of the most. intense | elass struggle, junRerdom should ap- ) at the head of the victorious tion, then we need not doubt that of Ludwig Frank’s services for the in- rnal building up of the state had returned safe from the fields of German victories. ‘But far more important than the of the rulers is the influence a Ger- man victory would have upon the . t itself. The war grew out of; imperialistic antagonisms between | | the capitalist states, and the victory © Germany, as stated above, can ' produce only one result—territorial acquisitions at the expense of Bel- ' gium, France and Russia, commercial treaties forced upon her enemies, and new colonies, The class strug- gle of the proletariat would then be nore upon the bast of the impo- | c hegemony of Germany, the working class would be interestcd in the maintenance and development of this hegemony, and revolutionary ‘Bocialism would for a long time be - @ondemned to the role of a propa- gandist sect. Marx was right when in 1870 he a _ foresaw, as a result ofthe Germar. wictories, a rapid development for the German labor movement unde; the banner of scientific Socialism. pa now the international conditions | gint to the very opposite prognosix. Germany's victory would mean the taking of the edge off the revolu- tionary movement, its theoretic shal- lowing, and the dying out of the Marxist ideas. —-—--—— CHAPTER VI. What Have Socialists to Do With . Capitalist Wars? oS B” the German Social Democ- racy, we shall be told, does not want victory. Our an- aS _ @Wer must be in the first place thai is not true. What the German i. Bocial Democracy wants is told by “it# press. With two or three excep- _ ttons Socialist papers daily point out » to the German workingman that a ' £¥istory of the German arms is his " Yietory.

The United Railways ‘“compro- mise” will be favorably reported to- day to the Board of Aldermen by the Public Utilities Committee, which has been considering the measure since last July. Final amendments were added to the bill yesterday. Except for specific provisions for service, a requirement that the ac- crued' mill taxes be paid by the com- pany within five, instead of 10 years, and with interest at 6 instead of 5 per cent, and an agreement that extensions and improvements shall be financed from the company’s net earnings above 7 per cent on a cap- italization of $60/000,000, the new measure is essentially and almost in words the same as “Ordinance No. 2,” which was prepared at the joint conference between representatives of the United Railways and city of- ficials last July. Must Go to Board First. After receiving the bill today from the Public Utilities Committee, the Board of Aldermen has the option either of making further amend- ments or at once submitting it to the Board of Public Service for the lat- ter’s approval. Under the charter a franchise must be referred, in the form in which it is ready for pas- sage, to the Board of Public Serv- ice, which must then prepare for the Aldermen its written report on the bill, with recommendations as to changes, if any. Four of the five members of the Board of Public Service have an- nounced that they will not content themselves with a perfunctory re- port on the franchise, but will scru- tinize the Aldermen’s work care- fully before submitting their find- ings. : “[fiSPATCH 428 New Overcoats Inc EXTRA Up and Ever Up Go the ‘ PS hia aay 2212 22 22D .Athttiaptie Our - Buyer Is now in the Chi- cago market, and no seeker after the undiscovered has had a more difficult task than he, and he writes us it is impossible to, da- ‘plicate the Fine - Suits and Over- coats we are now selling. ’ } t ' i" ’ ty sone , Mi te | " ij i eee i Suits —in- This Sale There are Suits for which men have gladly paid their recognized worth; hence = the opportunity of this sale is remarkable. | 22 ia Instead of $18, $20, $22.50 and $25, you ay the one price, $15.00. | i a = jp = Suits of Serge Suits of Worsteds Suits of Cassimeres Suits of Cheviots and Suits of Fancies bs Cuttin’ *‘Figger Eights’ in Boys’ Clothing Prices in our boys’ good clothing —Suits, Overcoats and Mgckinaws —have felt. the pruning of Janu- ary events.

Joseph F. Sheehan sang the part of Lionel charmingly, Florentine St. Clair, in the title role, exhibited a pretty and well-trained voice and proved herself the best of the troupe’s sopranos. Blaine de Sellem, in the flirtatious part of Nancy, was much more happily cast than as Amucena the night before. Other parts were capably taken by Arthur Deane, Francis J. Tyler and W. R. Northway. The concerted numbers in the last acte were stirringly given. Grand opera at 25 and 650 cents drew a large crowd yesterday after- noon, when Balfe’s “The Bohemian Girl” was put on. The work was im- paired by the indisposition of the tenor, John W. Warren, who was un- able to sing down a severe cold until his last aria, ‘When the Fair Land of Poland.” There was much ap- plause for the work’s familiar songs, “I Dreamt That I Dwelt in Marble Halls,” “The Heart Bowed Down,” and “Then You'll Remember Me.” The best singing was done by Alice May Carley in the ballad, “Bliss For- ever Past.” Instead of the Austrian flag which ig run up in the first act, there was displayed a nondescript banner, made by the property man, which was so strictly neutral that it repre- sented no known nation of the earth. All references to Austria and its Bm- peror were elided from the text. During the remainder of this week and all of next week 13 performances are promised, which will be distribut- ed among the three operas already given. 3500 Employes at Famous & Barr Welfare Masquerade.

Application of the Union Electric Light and Power Co. for an increase in its rate for electric current to consumers of more than 1000 kilo- watt hours a month, which was taken up late yesterday by the Pub- lic Service Commission, Was resumed at 10 o’clock this morning at the Hotel Statler. Most of yesterday’s session was devoted to taking evidence in the application of the Union Electric for an increase in its rates for steam heat. This application is being op- posed by the Ely & Walker Dry Goods Co., Boatmen’s Bank Building, Pierce Building, Commercial Build- ing, Wainwright Building and other large users of steam heat furnished by the Union Dlectric. Practically all of the protesting concerns are equipped with inde- pendent heating and electric power plants in their buildings and for- merly operated these plants to fur- nish their own heat and electricity. About 1913, however, they made con- tracts with the Union Electric by which the latter company was to lease and operate the independent plants and furnish the customer with steam heat and electricity at a flat rate under a contract. Pierce Building Contract. In the case of the Pierce Building it was shown that the contract rate of $20,000 a year for the service was considerably less than it had been costing the Pierce Building to op- o) - . ; 7 4 y SY adsense — ” ‘* rs “e > Baa ke bei : Rk a eae — Pee oe. ae > gt be eet OT Oe A al «a 7 ik BeNOR ei a ee a Be . eH Pee i By « iG Sty se otk ge ROS 3" ye a a othe: - ig ga ae ah 4:5 ieee e ee = , Ly TE | Note 7 - ' ‘n f ee # z 2 “ : Aiatadl poe v4 ai * / 4 5, 3 ; eh x Bee | CARS: - . : ae eee y ae A ao % x e * s ” 5 iad Pty . . pow aA ¥ me a pin Mg et : ) ~ FS a PHT OF | mt Singing by Jéseph F. q¢.

M, Robertson, | a manager of the building, it had been | Maa costing from $238,000 to $24,000 a Uae year to operate the plant in the few Ga years just preceding the leasing “ ty it by the Union Electric. Lawrence B. Pierce, president of the Leasehold Income Co., owners | of the Pierce Building and the Boat- | men’s Bank Building, testified that the promise of Keokuk current at low rates was one of the induce-/§ ments to his signing the contract with Union, Electric. He said the contract was negotiated on behalf of the Union Electric by the late A. C. | Einstein, then vice president and general manager of the company, and that Einstein said to him, as nearly as he could remember: “We are going to have a lot of cheap power from the Keokuk dam and must have an outlet for it. There- fore, we can. make you an advan- tageous contract.”’ Pierce said he understood Ein- stein to say the company would have 60,000 horsepower of this current. “Losing Money on It.’ It was indicated by the attorney | ih for the Pierce Building that in the | Bige event the commission granted the (am: increase asked for by the Union Electric he would contend the con- tract between his client and the Union Electric would be thereby an- nulled and the Pierce Building would be at liberty to again operate its own plant. He inquired as to what position the commission would take on this point and was told it would, be a question for the courts and not | for the commission. The attorney | for the Union Electric said: “Per- | § haps we would be glad to have you take back your plant, are losing money on it.” Most of these steam-heat contracts | are to run for several years, that of, the Ely & Walker Dry Goods Co. having been extended to 1927 by an | (am agreement entered into in 1916. because we | f BRAN} is good for you.

Poritee 15c4Atzer *H. 8S; Sanderson, an electrical ad- fea visory engineer, representing the Commercial Building, the Third Na- tional Bank Building and a number of other buildings, was permitted to make a sworn statement, in which he attacked the right of the Union Electric to operate as a public util- ity as to heating business. He de- clared the company had no fran- chise to do a heating business and had not been granted authority by ordinance or otherwise. He de- clared that as a representative of a number of buildings, among them the Marion Roe Hotel and the Stand- ard Theater, he had made demands upon the Union Electric for heat service and had been told they had no facility to furnish service to those buildings. He declared the purpose of the pending application was not pri- marily to get an increase in rates but to have the Public Service Com- mission, by acting upon the case, of- ficially recognize the Union Electric as a public utility as to heating Officials’ Testimony. It has been testified by officials of the Union Electric that the oper- ating expenses of the steam heating business ‘in 1917 amounted to $477, 987.49 and the revenue to $257,+ 463.15, leaving a deficit of $220,- 624.34. Attorneys opposing the applica- tion asked many questions as to how, in a plant furnishing both elec- tricity and heat, the net expenses and revenues were allocated, so Pmuch to heat and s0 much to reve- nue. The attorneys contended the steam used for heat was a by-prod- uct, Hawing already been used to generate electricity. There was fail- ure to arrive at any common grounds in this discussion. The only witness examined tn the electric rate case yesterday was Frank J. Boehm, assistant treasurer of the Union Electric, who testified that the operating expenses of the company in 1917 increased $700,000 over 1915. He estimated that the increase asked for in rates would offset tifis to the extent of only $277,000.

I trust you wil) be able to give space in * your newspaper for a few comments on - the Missouri Home Guard. The impres- p ston I wish to convey is not one of a - “knocker” but of one who is trying to - boost the Home Guard. q ve When the guard was organized last July, ag was among the sworn in, and since 4 then have missed very few drills, giving up two nights a week of my time and go- @ out to Clayton a few times on Sun- days. * Those of us who have joined the guard iy have given up our time to the “cause,” I think, have done our duty.

But I ' wish you would answer this question: ‘Is ‘ight for the men of the Home Guard to Be all the burden of this organization?” ape equipment we have is slight, and on cold nights our efficiency is minus b quantity because we are nearly frozen, _ ma we are lacking overcoats, and if we = ® overcoats every man has a different: _ kind of coat, which makes a company put ya rather poor appearance.

Fuel Administrator Garfield and the President showed commendable courage in enforcing the five-day closing order, which they regard as necessary and wise, despite the shrieks of the provincial East and the howls of the panic polli- ticians in the Senate. . New York and parts of New England always revolt against any policy which touches their pocketbooks and their comforts, which are para- mount considerations. But the Senate majority is in the ridiculous situation of granting author- ity to the President and demanding vigorous action and then when vigorous action is taken to meet a menacing emergency dtr er to stop it. If anything {s likely to give aid and comfort to the enemy it is not the closing order designed to move the 250 ships tied up in our ports, relieve congestion, release cars and increase the coal | supply, thus restoring normal conditions, but the revolt of newspapers, politicians and the rep- rgentatives of affected interests against the first actual sacrifice for the winning of the war asked by the Government. Are we so soft and so feeble in our patriotic resolution that a real pinch throws us into shrieking hysteria? We ask this question of the East, which has been so sure of its own war ardor and so doubtful of the war ardor of the West, President Cleveland’s wise remark that it is “a condition not a theory that confronts us,” ap- plies to the fuel situation. It is the condition de- scribed by Mr. Garfield—the holding of ships that should be sailing to Europe with their much- needed cargoes, the congestion in ports and ware- houses, the tieing up of thousands of cars, extraor- dinary weather adversities disabling transporta- tion—that is the cause of our troubles. We may rail at the condition, declare that it ought not to exist and ought to have been remedied, but it does exist and must be met. Mr. Garfield and his advisers are trying to meet it by vigorous and bold action. He might have met it less boldly by merely diverting coa] from all industries except those necessary industries which he excepts from his order. He might thus have really stopped thou- sands of industries without warning, leaving them in uncertainty and subject to greater losses than they will suffer under the closing order. This action would have resulted in unfairness and in far less saving of coal than his fair, open closing order. | The losses cited by protesters are theoretical because practically every industry in the country closes annually and occasionally for a longer period than five days. Unless the closing is caused by a strike we do not shriek about these normal and usual losses of production, earnings and wages. It is the brief general closing at one time that has caused the panic among the un- thinking, the hysterical and the selfish interests. Efficient Germany, with plenty of coal, has practically starved all of her industries except war plants, and is unable to supply coal to house- holders. All the belligerent countries have suf- fered so much more than we will suffer from this temporary stress that no comparison is pos- sible. The country will not collapse under this brief hardship and no one will starve. It may save many from death by freezing and disease. But the burdens should be shared. Wherever it is possible wages and salaries should be continued in whole or in part. In many plants cessation of work is being utilized to advantage for cleaning up and overhauling machinery. This is not a time for hysteria, but for calm judgment and patriotic discipline.. Submitting to regulation, let us strive to overcome the condi- tions that require rigid regulation. If the administration has blundered, the blun- der is not fatal—not nearly so fatal as the weak confusion of policy demanded by the protestants. The blunder will be manifest in results, and we the order is wise it will be justified by results. In the five-day period all available capacity and energy should be concentrated on speeding up transportation efficiency. = = " rw THE ARCTIC LOST ATLANTIS. Interesting at any time, Stefansson’s report of the discovery of land of continental extent north of Alaska has an exaggerated importance because of the general lack of fruitful activities not di- rectly associated with or contributing to conduct of the war. It is rather pleasant to think that gome objectives other than military objectives are capable of inspiring venturesome effort and of extending advance and enlarging human knowl- edge during these stressful years. If the explorer is not misled in his conclusions, a possibility always to be kept in mind in the Arctic regions, he has settled an uncertainty to which much attention has recently been devoted and gained high rank in the field of geographical research. For apparently he has made known the reality of Crocker Land, th¢,lost Atlantis of the Arctic, though he may not give it the name of Crocker Land. It was to determine the ovation of this land that the much more elaborately organized McMil- lan expedition set hopefully forth to the North, resulting in a failure and a verdict that any large land mass in the vicinity described was)a myth. But apparently what Peary saw after crossing Bilesmere Land and Grant Laff on the way to the pole and what he confidently believed to be ® new and most interesting area north of any ) region previously delimited was a mirage of a real ane bot © supposition land mass, situated at a cam redeem the mistake by greater exertion. If} long distance from the route he traversed. Stef- ansson went hundreds of miles west to look for it, and found it. This is a victorious struggle to which the doc- trine of no indemnities and no annexationy will not be applied. The explorer will be generously indemnified in celebrity. However much its an- nexation may enlarge Canada’s already broad area and whatever- mineral and other wealth it may contain, possession of the new land will be cordially conceded under the right of discov- ery. Previously explored Arctic lands are re- puted to contain vast mineral wealth, but up to date it bas brought small advantage to anybody. = = * i i ss TWO NAVAL VOYAGES. Two voyages of naval ships illustrate changes in war methods since the Spanish-American War. The battleship Oregon started from Puget Sound on March 6, 1898, and arrived at Key West on June 4. We knew she was on her way and even knew of one or two stops she made for coal. But the only announcement made about the second voyage is that a “destroyer” leaving ‘‘a Pacific | port” has arrived at an “Atlantic port” in 101-2. days. We are not permitted to know either her own name or the names of the ports of departure and arrival. Would any military objective be seriously jeopardized if we were? To effect this reduction in time from 90 days to 101-2 days was precisely the object for which the building of the canal was undertaken by the Government—to add the shipyards of the Pacific coast to the constructive resources of the nation and enable all naval units to be mobilized prompt- ly at the place of need. Nothing ever contributed as much to the initiative for building the canal without further delay than the Oregon’s voyage. But how much would the national conviction have been stirred if contemporary knowl@ige of the trip had been withheld and later, after other events had absorbed attention, we had merely been told of 90 days lapsed time between Pacific and Atlantic? The national suspense while the voyage was in progress is what’ built the great waterway. AUSTRIA’S PATHETIO EFFORTS. In the jumble of peace talk coming from Hurope these days probably nothing stands out more than the almost pathetic attempts of Austria- Hungary to bring the war to an end before next spring. Every report from the belligerent cap- itals tells of additional concessions that Vienna is willing to make in the interests of peace. * Recent statements from reliable sources tell ‘of an offer made by the dual monarchy to Serbia in which Emperor Carl Francis offered to guar- antee the integrity of his little neighbor besides giving him Herzegovina, Bosnia and port on the Adriatic as a mark of esteem if Serbia would withdraw from the war. Imagine! Austria, which went to war over Serbia ostensibly willing to give that country more than it had at the begin- ning of the war merely for the sake of peace. It is almost pathetic when one considers what little effect on the war generally the withdrawal of Serbia would have. The Serbian offer, however, serves to call at- tention to the dire need of peace in Austria and the necessity for it at nearly any price. Food con- ditions are reported to be terrible and the Czecho- Slovaks and the Hungarians are threatening to tear the empire apart. In fact, even the Emperor himself is not enthusiastic over the idea of send- ing hundreds of thousands of his remaining men to death against the allied lines in the west in order that his cousin Wilhelm might seize a port on the channel. Carl Francis has probably lost a little of his confidence in the prowess of his Hoh- enzollern kinsman. The Venetian plains are still in the hands of the Italians and their occupation seems further off than ever. Germany is no doubt aware of conditions in the dual monarchy and her desperate efforts to se- cure peace for Austria on one front at least may explain the prolongation of pour parlers at Brest- Litovsk. Austria has become a doubtful asset to Germany. aa s ‘ HOOVERIZING IN THE ARMY, TOO, Soldiers as well as civilians are being warned against all waste. Officers and men at Camp Funston must not leave the engines of motor ve- |hicles running at a large waste in gasoline when the conveyances are not in use. The grates of furnace and stoves must not be burned out through neglect and improvident use of fuel, which also implies waste of coal. The most elab- orate provision for the comfort of our fighting men is warranted up to the point where gener- osity becomes waste. At that point a halt has been called. Simply because they are purchased with the people’s money affords no excuse for the wanton destruction of war-winning assets. which the whole country is organized to conserve. When officers leave all the electric lights burn- ing for the brilliant fllumination of their quar- ters during long hours of absence at entertain- ments or other places, an obvious inconsistency is involved in compelling the small tradesman of a nearby village to extinguish the single bulb over his door for the saving of coal. ELIMINATING THE BOWS. The manager of a St. Louis vaudeville theater has adopted an effective plan for getting his au- diences away by 10 o’clock at night and thus help conserve ‘the coal supply of the community in ac- cordance with the directions of the Fuel Com- mittee. He has simply issued orders forbidding actors to take more than one bow. “Taking bows” is the thespian manner of ex- pressing appreciation for applause. Three is the usual minimum and sometimes as many as eight or ten are taken. The manager of this particular theater estimated that 30 minutes, or about one- fourth of the show time, was taken up with taking bows. By eliminating the bows he hurts the actor’s vanity, but saves coal and the patience of his audiences. The speeding up of shows is likely to prove so popular that the practice of curtailing actors’ acknowledgments will probably be con- tinued long after the coal crisis shall have gone the way of other crises. “Taking bows” is not only a time killer of the footlights. There are a number of gentlemen in Congress who are wasting lots of time and impeding much good work by acknowledging imaginary applause from blase constituencies. These are not times for “taking bows.” There is too much work to be done, 4 oe! x ve. ey: ve Per, sre £.. patel tae e. hg: INDIVIDUAL INTEREST ¥ _* é oe o,*\ seta eae ; ! 9S Suess 8 a sent tan f SOK SY ds cree See Sane aon ia 4 a -* > OF Sees KL STIS. % Lab . “2 oy? & ma , -*e.- @ A DIFFERENCE IN THE POINT OF VIEW.

A.; Following your instructions, I went immediately to Paris and succeeded in getting the 24% yards of Cerise silk you requested. I regret to report that I could not match the sample of Chantilly lace you sent, as the Chantilly lace works are not now in operation; thus official life in America can grasp the horrors of war. My new crepe-dée-chine gown will be ready in a few days. .

' While I was in Paris I met such a dandy fellow. He took me to dinner and asked all about you and the War Departmens. I told him you had fastened baby-biue ribbon on all desks and chairs, and had covered the cannon on the lawn with pink chiffon. He asked how many more soldiers we were going to bring over. Someone afterward told me that he was a spy. I know better. Spies don’t ask questions. I saw one once in a play at Hinkum’s Opera House in Hamville (my home town). An East Lynne company played there a whole week. One play was about a spy. Spies come down Pp.

The time to act like a German spy is before you marry a man —not afterward.

Sometimes he ,ent his opinion, same as a common private does when he’s wrought up. Once upon a time the Captain had been on Old Pepper's staff, so he site cuss and blind in the most approved style. Got to be sort of a habit with him. “About 6000 yards from us, pe- hind the German lines, was a road tem the target na range. t had previoulsy told him about our Bs in plain view of our post. For the}tain talking out loud as if he were last three days Fritz had brought companies of troops down this road in broad daylight. They were never shelled. Whenever, this happened the Captain would froth at the mouth and let out a volume of Old Pepper’s religion which used _ to make me love him. “Every battery has a range chart on which distinctive landmarks are noted, with the range for each These landmarks are called targets, and are. numbered. On our bat- tery’s chart that road was called ‘Target Seventeen, Range 6000, 30 30 minutes left.’ D. 2358 shell. As you know, H. E. means ‘high explosive.’ I don’t like bum- ming up my own battery, but we had a record in the division for direct hits, and our boys were just pining away for a chance to exhibit _ their skill in the eyes of fritz. “On the afternoon of the fourth day of Fritz’s contemptuous use of the road mentioned, the Captain and I were at our posts as usyal. Fritz was strafeing us pretty rough, just playing leapfrog all through that or- chard. ‘ “TT was carrying on a conversation in our ‘tap’ code with Cassell at the other end. . It ran something like this: “ ‘Say, Cassell, how would you like to be in the saloon bar of the King’s Arms down Rye lane with a bottle of Bass in front of you, and that blonde barmaid waiting to fill ’em up again ?’ “Cassell had a fancy.for that par- ticular blonde. The answer came back In the shape of a volley of cusses. I changed the subject, “After awhile our talk veered been exposiftg themselves on the Seventeen. What we said about those Boches .would never have passed the Reichstag, though I be- lieve it would have gone through our censor easily enough. “The bursting shelis were making such a din that I packed up talking and took to watching the: Captain. He was fidgeting around on an old and make some remark that I couldn't hear on account of the noise, but I guessed what it was all right. Fritz was getting fresh again on that road. Agysraey, had been sending in the sending through orders. Well, if, this happened, I was to send the dope to Cassell and he would trans- mit it to the battery commander as— officially coming through the ob- servation post. Then the battery would open up. Afterward, cone” the investigation, Cassell would — swear he received it direct.

From him, the investigation — would go to the observation . and the observing officer could _ truthfully swear that I had not sent the message by phone, and that no orders to fire had been issued him. The investigators would then. be up in the air, we would be safe, the Boches would receive a good bashing, and we would get our own . back on Old Pep It was too good to be true. I sleefull ‘the scheme, and'‘told Cassell I was . sandbags with his feet. At last, turn- ing to me, he said: “Wilson, this army is a wrenneey blank washout. What's the use of having artillery if it is not allowed yto fire? The Government at home ought to be hanged with some of their red tape. It's through them that we have no shells. ' “T answered, ‘Yes, ‘sir,’ and started sending this opinion over the wire to Cassell, but the Captain interrupted . me with: * ‘Keep those infernal fingers still. . What's nerves? pay attention.’ Falls Into Scheme. “My heart sank. Supposing he had rumbled that tapping, then would be up with our plan.

Anyway, if we're caught, I'll take the blame.’ | “Under those conditions I told, ‘him to spit out his scheme. Tt was so daring and i sim- ple that it took my breath away.

Four direct hits—another record for D 238. “The shells kept on whistling over- head and I had counted 24 of them when the firing suddenly ceusedc. When the smoke and dust clouds lifted the destruction on that road was awful. Overturned limbers and guns, wagons smashed’ up, troops fleeing in all directions. The road and roadside were spotted all over with litle field gray dots, the toll of our guns. ; “The Captain, in his excitemert, had slipped off the sandbag, and was on his knees in the mud, the glass still at his eye. He was muttering to himself and slapping his thigh with his disengaged hand. At every slap a big round juicy cuss word would escape from his lips followed by: “‘Good, Fine—Marvelous, Pretty Work, Direct Hits, All.’ “Then he turned to me and shout- ed: “ ‘Wilson, what do you think of it? Did you eVer see the like of it in your life? Damn fine work, I call it.’ “Pretty soon a look of wonder stole over his face, and he exclaimed: “But who in hell gave them the or- der to fire? Range and everything correct, too. I know I didn’t. Wil- son, did I give you any order for the battery to open up? Of course, I didn’t, did I?” The Inquiry Starts. “I answered very emphatically, ‘No, sir, you gave no command. Nothing went through this post.

He directs that officer and signaler report at the double to brigade headquarters as soon as re- lieved. Relief is now on the way.’ “In an undertone to me, ‘Keep a brass front, Wilson, and, for God's sake, stick.’ I answered with, ‘Rely on me, mate,’ but I was trembling all over. , “I gave the General’s message to the Captain, and started packing up. “The relief arrived, and as we left the post the Captain said: “‘Now for the fireworks, and I know they'll be good and plenty.’ They were. “When we arrived at the gun pits, the battery commander, the Ser- geant-Major and Cassell were waiting for us. We fell in line and _ the funeral march to brigade headquar- ters started. “Arriving at headquarters, the bat- tery commander was the first to be interviewed. This was behind closed: doors. From the roaring and explo- sions of Old Pepper it sounded as if raw meat was being thrown to the lions. Cassell, later, described it as sounding like a bombing raid. In about two minutes the officer re- appeared. The sweat was pouring from his forehead, and his face was the color of a beet. He was speech- less. As he passed the Captain he the lion’s den and went out. Then the Captain went in and the lions were once again fed. The Captain stayed about 20 minutes and came out. I couldn’t see his face, but the droop in his shoulder was enough. He looked like a wet hen. “The door of the General’s room opened, and Old Pepper stood in the doorway. With a roar, he shouted: “*Which one of you is Cassell? Damn me, get your heels together when I speak! Come in here!’ “Cassell started to say, ‘Yes, sir.’ “But Old Pepper roared, ‘Shut up!’ “Cassell came out in five minutes. He said nothing, but as he pasdged me he put his tongue into his cheek and winked, then turning to the closed door, he stuck his thumb to ‘his nose and left. Old Pepper Full of Pep. “Then the Sergeant-Major’s turn came. He didn’t come out our way. Judging by the roaring, Old Pepper must have eaten him. “When the door opened, and the General beckoned to me, my knees _| started to play ‘“‘Home, Sweet Home” against each other. “My interview was very short. “Old Pepper giared at me when 1 entered, and then let loose. “Of course you don’t know any- thing about it. You're just like the rest. Ought to have a nursing bot- tle around your neck and a nipple in your teeth. Soldiers, by gad, you turn my stomach to look at you.

Get out; but I think you are .j@ damned Mar just the same. Back to your battery.’ “i saluted and made my cxit. jerked his thumb in the direction of}. “That night the Captain sent for ius. With fear and trembling we went to his dugout. After saluting, we stood at attention :n front of him and waited. His say was short. “Don’t you two ever get it into your heads that Morse is a dead language. I’ve known it for years. ‘Lhe two of you had better get rid of that nervous habit of tapping trans- 1aitters; it’s dangerout. That’s all.’ “We saluted, and were just going out the door of the dugout when the Captain called us back and said: “ ‘Smoke Golcfiakes? Yes? Well, there are two tins of them on my table. Go back to the battery, and keep your tongues between your teeth. Understand?’ “We understood. ~“For five weeks afterwards our Lattery did nothing but extra fatigues. We were satisfied, and s0 were the men. It was worth it to put one over on Old Pepper, to say nothing of the injury caused to Fritz’s feel- ings.” 4 When Wilson had finished his story I looked up, and the dugout was jammed. An artillery Captain and two officers had also entered and stayed for the finish. Wilson spat out an enormous quid of tobacco, looked up, saw the Captain, and got as red.as a carnation. The Captain smiled and left: Wilson whispered to-me: : “Blime mé, Yank, I see where I click for crucifixion.. That Captain is the same one that chucked us the Goldfiakes in his dugout and here I have been ‘chucking me weight about in his hearing..’."’ Wilson never clicked his crucifix- ion. “Old Scotty”’ of the Plains. Quite a contrast to Wilson was an- other character in our brigade named Scott, we called him “Old Scotty” on account of his age. Hé was 57, gl- though looking 40. “Old Scotty” had been born in the northwest and had served with the Northwest Mounted Police. He was a typical cowpunch- er and Indian fighter and was a dead shot with the rifle, and took no pains to disguise this fact from us. He used to take care of his rifle as if it were a baby. In his spare moments you could always see him cleaning it or polishing the stock. Woe betide the man, who by mistake, happened to get hold of this rifle; he soon found out his error. Scott was as deaf as a mule, and it was amusing at parade to watch him in the man- ual of arms; slyly glancing out of the corner of his eye’ at the man next to him to see what the order was. How he passed the doctor was A mystery to us, he must have bluffed his way through, because he certain- ly was independent. Beside shim the Fourth of July looked Iike Good Fri- day. He wore at the time a large sombrero, had a Mexican stock sad- dle over his shoulder, a lariat on his his hip. Dumping this paraphernalia on the floor he went up to the re- crulting officer and shouted: ‘I’m from America, west of the Rockies and want to join your damned army.

PIKERS OUTPLAY TIGERS, BUT LOSE BASKET CONTEST | ; ‘Failure to Throw Foul Goals | (Causes, Downfall of Ruther- ford’s Strong Five. Uniess their inability to throw baskets is an inherent weakness rather than a one-night vice or the result-of a case of stage fright, the hope of the Washington University basket ball players to defeat the undefeated University of Missouri team, tonight at Francis Gymnasi- um, are about as high as any Pike- way court hopes have ever been. The two teams meet in their second engagement at Francis Gymnasium at 8 o’clock. That the maroon’ men form ag good a basket ball court combifa- tion as the Missourians is the belief of each of the 700 persons who saw them go down to a 17-14 defeat be- fore the Tigertown team, last night. That the basket throwing weakness is not inherent is a fact made plain by the Pikeway 47 to 24 defeat of the Drake teanr last week. Wash- ington is favored to win. tonight, in spite of their three-point defeat. A conservative estimate of the com- parative opportunities of the contend- ing players to score would show that the Bengal net was a mark ‘for about three times as many tosses as was the lotals’ basket. This would infer that the play was in Misouri terri- —which was the case. form back in the days when they laced 'em up in front and wore neck- ties. e * .

Much has been written and said about the faultless catching, and fleld- ing, and throwing of the baseball players. “Armed as each one is with a huge glove on the left hand, with a web between the thumb and first finger of the glove,\it is a matter of great difficulty to drop a catch or be guilty of misfield- ing.
