WASHINGTON, June 1.—Details as to possible loss of life when the American transport President Lin- colin, homeward bound, was torp+- doed and sunk: yesterday are still awaited by navy officials. Announce- ment of the loss of the big trans- port was received in a dispatch from Vice Admiral Sims last night, stating merely that the vessel had been tor- pedoed and that it sunk an hour later. The location of the President Lin- coln, a vessel of 18,000 tons and a former. Hamburg-American liner, when attacked by the submarine is understood to have been about 300 miles off the French Coast. The President Lincoln is the sec- ond army transport, and the largest one thus far, to be sunk by a Ger- man submarine. The Antilles was torpedoed Oct? 17, last; and sank within five minutes, with the loss of 67 persons, including 16 soldiers; ST. LOUIS WOMAN’S HUSBAND OFFICER ON TORPEDOED SHIP Lieutenant-Commander Wallace L. Lind, executive officer of the U. S. transport, President Lincoln, sunk yesterday by a submarine, is the husband of Mrs. Hazel Lind, who re- sides in St. Louis with her parents, Dr. and Mrs. B. L. Green, at the Windermere Hotel. She was to have left tomorrow for New York with her 4-year-old son to meet her hus~ band on his arrival. Mrs. Lind today expressed to a Post-Dispatch reporter her. belief that her husband and the 700 men under him had been saved. “Undoubtedly, the President Lin- coln was convoyed,” she'said. “If not, then there were a great number of life rafts aboard, for the Presi- dent Lincoln had been carrying 5000 troops to a trip. However, if she went down stern foremost, there is a possibility that many of the rafts were lost. “My husband and his captain un- doubtedly were the last to leave the ship and*he may have perished through his fidelity to duty, but if he did, he died as he would have liked. He has told me since the war started that everyone mist make sacrifices and that I must be pre- pared to be brave. ‘If I die,’ he has recently said to me, ‘I want to die at sea and to be buried at sea.’ If that was his wish, then why should I be the one to complain?” Mrs. Lind said that her husband had made five round trips to Eu- rope since he put the President Lin- coln into commission a-year ago, after she had been damaged by Ger- mans at her dock. She said the transport had been carrying Ameri- can. wounded on her return trips, with salt water for ballast. “T am keeping the news of the sinking from my Uttle son,” Mrs. his March Thinks Germans Will Dig In and Prepare for a Drive on Paris WASHINGTON, June 1. EMBERS of the Senate M Military Committee, at their weekly conference today, with War Department of- cials, were told by Gen. March, Acting Chief of Staff, that opin- ion here is that the Germans have reached their present ob-. jective—the Marne—and _ that they probably now will dig in and prepare for a later drive, perhaps on Paris. SOLDIER DISCOVERS HE IS HELPING BURY HIS BROTHER Asked to Scrve as Pall Bearer, He Hears Chaplain Call Out Rela- tive’s Name, By the Associated Press. WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, June 1.—One of the most pathetic instances of the war so far as America is concerned oc- curred in a little cemetery to the rear of the Picardy front recently when an American soldier acting as a pall bearer at the funeral of sev- eral Americans discovered his own brother, Joseph Ash, among ‘the dead. The brothers, members of different companies, had met only the day, before at the front. Joseph rmained there and was mortally wounded, dying soon afterward. His brother was ordered to the rear lines with a party of woodchoppers. The woodchoppers were working near the cemetery at the time of tha funeral and the chaplain asked them to be pall bearers. In the midst of the service the chaplain read the name of Joseph Ash, The brother, who stood with bared head in the small group of soldier mourners, reeled forward, his eyes filled with tears and exclaimed, “My brother, brother.” EDWARDS WHITAKER HURT IN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT Head Hits Top of Car When rchine Goes Over Defective Cub rt * on Way to Hannibal. Edwards Whitaker of 13 West- moreland place, president of the Boatmen’s Bank, received a severe scalp wound when an automobile in which he and other members of the Missouri State Council of De- fense, on their way to Hannibal, Mo., last night, passed over a defective culvert near Moscow Mills, about 40 miles from St. Louis. His head struck the top of the machine, He received surgical attention when the party reached Hannibal at 10 o’clock, and was able this morn- Ting to take part in the State confer- ence, In the party, besides Whitaker, were Mayor Kiel, John Scullin, W.

Not much SECOND BATTLE OF MARNE IMPENDS IS VIEW IN LONDON Daily News Calls Situation in France Most Disquieting, but in No Manner Beyond Retrieving. ALL LOOK FOR AID FROM UNITED STATES Tide of Battle “Never So Menacing,” Is the Expres- sion of Another Newspaper —All Hopeful of Final Result. LONDON. June 1.—The gravity of the news from the western front is emphasized in this morning’s news- papers which comment anxiously on the situation although they express hopefulness as to the final outcome. The Daily News says the stateirent given last night by a military author- ity to the Associated Press, in which the situation was depicted as a very anxious one, is disquieting, since it must be accepted as reliable. This newspaper, however, encourages the view that the situation is no wise past retrieving. The Daily Telegraph sees great possibilities in the strategic sit- uation. Asserting that the anxiety and. stress of the last few days are not diminishing, it adds: “It would appé@ar that a secon battle of the Marne, of far greaté intensity and weight than in 1914, is opening, but in totally different circumstances. The difference, how- ever, is as much to the advantage of the allies as of the enemy.” The Daily Express says: ‘Never since the outbreak of the war has the situation been more menacing or have the possibilities been graver; yet the country remains wunper- turbed, almost indifferent. We have become accustomed to the German att@ck that succeeds for a few days and then comes to the end, with the objective unattained. We have per- suaded ourselves this must. always happen. The argument is false. This faith is not based on reason.”’ Confidence in America. Confidence in American help is shown in the comment of several newspapers. The Daily Mail enumer- ates the strong points in favor of the allies, including “the rapid arrival of American troops, which will speedily restore the allies’ preponder- ance in numbers.” The Times also looks to the day when the arrival of Americans will more than reverse the present pro- portions. “The American war power is growing fast,’ ’it says. “The whole nation is behind the army as it has never been behind any movement yet, and it is a nation of 100,000,000 free men who have never known de- feat. Until they join us in full force our business is to hold on. When they so join us, victory will be at our doors.” The Telegrap®& finds “substantial encouragement” in such facts as the American success at Cantigny, which it praises highly as an exhibition of masterly method of fighting. It places reliance on the “formidable American hosts now preparing to en- gage the enemy,” and adds: “It assuredly is not written in the book of fate that the civilization of the Western World shall go down before the arms of Germany.” FNTERURBAN RATE REVISION; PULLMAN BERTH ADVANCE Basis to Be Nearly 3 Cents a Mile; Pullman Minimum Overnight Charge, $2. WASHINGTON, June i1.—In Pe. ts with the increase in passenger fares to 3 cents a mile, the Pullman Co. shortly will raise the minimum over- night rate for sleeping berthd from $1.50 to $2. Other Pullman rates will not be changed materially. Passenger fares for travelers in Pullmans will be raiséd@ higher than ordinary fares under Director-Gen- eral McAdoo’s recent order. Com- muters’ tickets, it was announced today, will be honored until used up, although railroad fares are raised, beginning June 10.

Federal Judge Arba S, Van Val- kenburgh announced that the #sen- tences on the’ three counts woult run concurrently and that the defendant would be subjected to no fine.

By the Associated Press. *"LONDON, June 1.—A statement given to the Associated Press last might by a high military authority expressive of the opinion of .the Brit- tsit General Staff of the situation on the western front, says: “’"The main German offensive has _ Been directed toward Chateau Thier- ry and Dormans. The Germans have ré@ached the right bank :of the Marne on a front of 10 miles from a point west of Chateau Thierry to Dormans. They have not captured Chateau Thierry, but are attacking very heav- ily and to the northward. “They already have captured Sois- @gons and yesterday they extended their attack northwest to Noyon and forced the.French back, so that the Hine now runs almost straight from Woyon to Soissons. **Around Rheims the position is somewhat. obscure.

The development is that the German attempt is t6 extend the attack east of Rheims, where ‘they were reported attacking last night, but no details have been re- ceived. “The Germans have thrown in every resource in an effort to widen the salient in which they find them- selves by attacking its flanks, but on the heights to the west of Soissons the French are resisting well, while *the British are making a stand south ‘and southwest of Rheims. These ef- forts thus far have held the German salient to a narrow width. wo “*'The situation is very anxious not ‘ily because the Germans have made such rapid progress—an advance of 26°miles in four days—but also be- ‘Cause they still have such large re- ‘werves available to be thrown in at mw point. | Seven Against Thirty. ala “The Germans’ big attack began May 27, with about thirty divisions, on a front of 865 miles, from Bermeri- ‘court to Leuilly.

BY THOMAS M. JOHNSON, A Special Correspondent of the Post- Dis (Copyright, 1918.) WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, June 1.—Cantigny is still ours. Six counter attacks by the Germans were completly smothered on Tuesday night and on Wednesday morning the Boches were not able to reach our advanced line. In fact, only once have the men crouching in our newly dug trenches in the flat- tened village been compelled to use their machine guns or rifles. The artillery had done most of the work for them, and in two ofthe six attempts when the Boches were discovered assembling behind the front line, ready to attack, they were quickly shelled out. In three other attempts they were caught in a bar- rage ‘of the 75s and literally wiped out. During one of these attempts an observation post reported seeing the barrage descend upon the Boche. When the first wave of smoke lifted not a single living German could be seen, but the ground was strewn with dead. Once only did the Grst wave of the attackers manage to get through the barrage and then the infantry were waiting for them and poured in a deadly fire with machine guns and rifles. This was a massed attack and the Boche presented a splendid tar- get. Marksmanship. The Americans again demonstrat- ed the justice of their claims to marksmanship with rifles, and not a single German reached them. They stood up despite the heavy artillery fire so as to take better aim and they turned the captured machine guns against the attackers, using ammu- nition they had captured. Thus far it still goes well. .It is possible that there will be more fow- erful counter attacks still, but the first critical 24 hours is past. Prac- tically all of the counter attacks on Wednesday debouched from the Lal- val and Framicourt Woods, but our artillery has the range so perfectly that the Boche probably will have to change his jumping off: place. Cantigny is now pretty well cun- olidated against counter attacks, and if the Boche ever gets in he will have a tough job staying. Despite the general realization that the capture of Cantigny was really only a local success everyone is greatly delighted. . One int@ligent telegrapher who speaks French and Russian and some English, said, ‘We are sur- prised that the Americans have learned so much about fighting.” The total of prisoners has now reached 242, including three officers, one of whom is a Lieutenant, and the other two Sublieutenants. More will probably be picked up from shell holes or dugouts, so the total may reach 2765. Late reports fully bear out the pre- dictions that our casualties were comparatively slight. Shot Captor in Back. On many parts of the front under attack they showed themselves anx- ious to surrender, and they seemed first American to feel an especial dislike for the bayonet fairly wilting when our men ‘showed cold steel. One boche threw up his hands, cried ‘“‘Kamerad,” and then shot his captor with his revolver when the latter turned his back. One of the prisoners who was wounded proved not to be a German at all but a Russian Pole who. had been forced to fight. He said he had been drafted from Poland three months ago despite his protest that he didn’t want to fight. He nearly wept with joy when he found there were several Polish-Ameriéans among his captors. He said that numbers of Russian Poles were being forced into the German service, and that most of the remaining Germans had been transferred from the Rus- sian front. That front, he said, was nothing like this. He added that the Germans agreed that the Americans were good fighters but crazy. The prisoners were escorted by cavalry men to the barbed wire pens where they were questioned and searched for the innumerable books they all seem to carry. Most of the prisoners were youths but they were a husky-looking lot for all that. One incident of the Cantigny fight that was typical of the French and the Americans, as well as the feeling of mutual elation. among the troops who were in, the attack, occurred when the party of flame throwers before leaving the village after com- pleting their terrible but necessary work, stopped to shake hands. The men of the two nations then did a sort of “can-can” of joy amid the bursting of shells. Every French officer or soldier one meets is fairly bubbling over with glee at the way the proteges of the allies behaved in the fight. But the most cheerful lot of all were our wounded. If you had looked in one of the advanced dressing sta- tions or hospitals you would have been convinced of that. There in the brown tents lay the men, bandaged. bloody and grimy, but happy. Prac- tically all had trophies of the fight. Gen. Pe. ‘\ing’ Reports Another Successful Raid. By the Associated Press. WASHINGTON, May 31.—A suc- cessful American raid today in the Woevre sector in which the enemy’s advanced positions were destroyed and losses inflicted in killed, wound- ed and prisoners, is reported in Gen. Pershing’s evening communique. The dispatch follows: “In the course of a raid executed this morning by our troops in the Woevre our technical detachments destroyed the enemy’s advanced po- sitions. At the same time our raid- ing detachment inflicted losses in killed, wounded and prisoners. ‘In Lorraine artillery fighting has diminished. ‘There is nothing to report from the other sectors occupied by our troops. “Barly in the day our aviators shot down a hostile machine.”’ gaged. Some reinforcements for fur- ther. efforts by the Crown Prince could be obtained from these armies, but the bulk of the German reserves are in Prince Rupprecht’s group to the right of the Crown Prince, and they are very formidable in strength. The enemy may put them in to ex- ploit the success already gained and push in the direction of Paris, or he may continue his effort through Amiens. ‘The question has been much dis- cussed during the last few days as to whether this German attack was a surprise to the allies. It cannot be called a complete surprise, for the fact that: the concentration in tho Laon area was well known. But until a day or two before the battle we had no indication that an attack on a big scale was impending. The Germans deserve full credit for maintaining secrecy regarding their plan. “The main masses of men were brought up to the actual front lines only on the night before the attack, which was preceded by only a two hours’ bombardment for the purpose of cutting our wire. The Germans are not making the same use of their artillery as ‘heretofore. They are us- ing trench mortars in large numbers for wire cutting. New Artillery Tactics, “The Germans were very skillful in keeping secrecy and in bringing up their troops at night. They had prepared for an attack on this part of the line for a long time, con- structing the necessary gun emplace- ments and assembly places so that our aircraft did not observe any con- struction of new trenches or em- placements just before the attack. The German use of artillery before TR ee ee it was necessary to use 3 eon ey | aE the attack was of a different charac- ter than heretofore. “Their guns did not register on definite targets but selected merely a wide area and shelled it continu- ously. It always has been difficult for aircraft to obtain definite strate- gical information. Thus in 1914 air- men found it very hard to detect col- umns on the road and much doubt existed as to the actual front covered by the German advance in Belgium. “Under the conditions which pre- vailed in the region of the Chemin des Dames an initial success could hardly be prevented. Nor can it be prevented anywhere when there are not adequate reserves immediately available. “The allies have these disadvan- tages: First, they are inferior in numbers; second, they are acting on exterior lines; third, they have many vulnerable points; fourth, north of the Somme they have little foot way in which to maneuver. “It is not fair to blame the high command when the allies have in- herently an unfavorable strategic po- sition. If it is said that the high command placed three tired British divisions on an exposed part of the front, it must be remembered that this disposition was made with full agreement of the British headquar- ters. Praise for Americans. ! “Is this the enemy’s main attack ?” “He probably did not know when he initiated it whether it would prove to be a subsidiary or leading operation. It must be remembered that the enemy has three great geo- graphical: objectives as a means toward his great objective of de- stroying the Franco-British armies— the Channel ports, separation of the allied armies by an attack through Amiens and an attack on Paris. “In the present operations he is doing all possible to develop his initial success by attacks both on the center and on the flanks of the sa- lient. He has achieved considerable success in the center, but on the flanks the French are holding well on the heights west of Soissons and the British are similarly fighting hard on the-heights around Rheims. “No review of the past week would be complete without mention of the fine exploit of the American troops in the capture of Cantigny. It was an extremely well conducted operation and, in view of the fact that the troops were untried, it is notable that they not, only captured their objec- tive, but held it. It is always much more difficult to consolidate and re- tain a position than to capture it. and the performance of the Ameri- | cans shows the very high standard as well as their training, bravery and fighting qualities," a ee ~ IS. FLYING CORP HAS ITS FIRST “ACE” Lieut. Campbell Downed Fifth Foe Friday-——Rickenbacher Probably the Next. By the Associated Press. WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, May 31.~—To Lieut. Douglas Campbell of California goes the honor of being the first “ace” in the American Flying Corps. It was Campbell who shot down the Ger- man biplane near Pont-a-Mousson, today. It was his fifth victory to be confirmed officially. It is probable that another ace will be announced shortly and the aviator to win the honor probably will be Lieut. Edward Rickenbacher of Columbus, O., the former automo- bile racer. Official confirmation of the victory reported gained by ‘Rick- enbacher Thursday will bring his string of victories to the coveted five. With a number of other pilots, Campbell was out early today. They were acting as patrols and as pro- tection for an American observation machine returning /;with British bombing airplanes. Some distance away Campbell saw a German airplane at a height of 4500 meters. He sped toward it and when he got near the enemy biplane began to dart in and out, firing bursts from his machine gun. The German did his best to get a shot home, but Campbell kept. circling and darting at high speed. The bat- tle continued for 20 minutes before the enemy observer abandoned his gun. Campbell saw that the Ger- man’s ammunition was and he. closed in on him. Campbell tried to signal the Ger- man to surrender and descend on French soil, but the latter apparent- ly decided to take a chance on get- ting home. The American got on the tail of thé German, forcing him down, but all the time the enemy was geiting nearer home. Campbell again signalled without success and then when the choice came of per- mitting the German to, escape | or shcoting him down he cut loose with his gun and poured a deadly strea of incendiary bullets into the Ger- man machine which crashed to the earth inside our lines. Our first all- American ace said: “T did not Ifke the idea of shoot- ing him down when he was not fight- ing, but I could not let him get away.” - ROSE PASTOR STOKES IS SENTENCED TO 10 YEARS IN PRISON Continued From Page One. f or another, it is because I Have taken the provision of the Constitution con- cerning liberty of expression too lit- erally—a language plain and simple and made a part of the Constitution by an amendment thereto by those who recognized its importance dur- ing periods not alone of peace, but, also of stress." “I am not cons¢ious of commit- ting any crime, your honor, unless an ardent desire to serve the ends of sccial and economic justice, acclaim- ed as of the highest social value in times of peace, because an anti-social thing and a crime in time of war. “There are many things I have it in.my. heart to say, but somehow I feel that time and events will speak more eloquently for me than I am able to speak for myself.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 1.— Fcllowing pronouncement of sen- tence, stedman took steps for an appeal to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals and Judge Van Valkenburgh granted the defendant 60 days in which to file a bill of ex- ceptions. Pending this Mrs. Stokes will be at liberty on the $10,000 bond.furnished for her at the time of her arrest, which was continued. Mrs. Stokes was alone in court, except for Mrs. Stedman, who was with her throughout the trial. Ab- sence of Stokes was explained by his wife on the ground that his. pres- ence'in New York required by the military organization to which he belongs. Stokes is a First Sergeant in the Ninth Coast Artillery and had to be with the regiments in a parade today, she said. Judge’s Statement. In passing sentence Judge Van Valkenburgh read a prepared state- ment in regard to the alleged of- fense of Mrs. Stokes, in which he said: “I believe this is part of a sys- tematic program to create discon- tent with the war, loss of confidence in the good faith and sincerity un- derlying the conduct of the war, and its ultimate aims; thereby to cause withdrawal of support at home and a relaxation of effort and effect in the field. All this to the end that peace on any terms may be brought about with Germany and the inter- ests of the nation at large sacrificed fgr the réalization of social and eco- nomic views of certain groups. “Co-operation for this common object among various irresponsible or visionary elements in the country is perceptible.

A fine of $100 and costs, imposed by Police Judge Hogan on Mrs. Emma Bracken, a fortune teller of 614 Lami street, alleged to. have told customers she could sway, at will, the hearts of men and women by burning a magic “love powder” over their pictures, was stayed by Judge Hogan today after Mrs. Bracken promised to retire permanently from the “love powder” business. | The charge was brought by Mrs. Osceola’ Gersie, 3015 South Seventh street, who, with a policewoman, visited Mrs. Bracken, after Gersie’s daughter had become great- ly worried over things told her by Mrs. Bracken. Mrs. Gersie and the policewoman did not disclose their identity, but went in as clients.

S. Order for St. Louls Concern. Suit for a commission of $70,000 on a Government order for $700,000 worth of piston rings for airplanes and automobiles was brought in the Circuit Court today by Glen W. Hartrader, a salesman, of Philadel- hpia, against the McQuay-Norris Manufacturing Co. of 2808 Locust street. Hartrader alleges that he obtained the order for the company, for which he was working, on 10 per cent commission. W. K. Norris, president of the company, told a reporter later that Hartrader formerly worked for them, but that he had no part in getting the Government order, and that the company does not owe him anything. Hartrader is no longer employed by the company. He alleges he was dis- charged without cause, after getting the order. Chicago Reaches Red Cross Quota.

Despite the grave issues involved there has never been, from ths; in- _Stant the offensive was declared, a wnoment’s hesitation or a moment's “aonfusion.

Deadly Gas Attack. Not only had the allied troops to contend against an overwhelm’ng weight of numbers, but they suffered from an initial gas attack and re- peatedily found themselves taken in the flank by an enfilading fire from machine guns and tanks. _ From the outset it was obvious to the high command that retreat was inevitable. Guns and material of all sorts had to be taken back along bridges over the line, accommoda- tions had to be found for refugees, supplies and ammunition had to be brought up and the roads had to be kept clear for the reserves; but de- spite the desperate way in which the dice were loaded against them, the allied forces retreated in g00d or- der, doing all that was in their pow- er to force thé enemy to pay the highest possible ‘price for the terri- tory they gained.

With some critics the most im- portant part of the battlefield is that around Noyon, or the region to the south of it, on the one end, and the district north of Chateau Thierry, on the Marne, on the other. It is here that the German rush toward Paris demands undivided attention.

The remainder of the plan is being completely defeated, it declares, and everything gives rea- son to believe the enemy will be blocked. There was much satisfaction evinced yesterday in the lobby of the Deputies over the information given to the members by the army control delegates.

The statement reads: “On our left wing, in the region of the Lower Ailette, the Germans have continued their pressure dur- ing the course of the day. .Our troops have broken all enemy at- tacks in the region of Blerancourt and west of this locality.

On the other hand the enemy has been able to win some ground to the west of the road from Sois- sons to Chatéau Thiery and in the direction of this town he has passed Oulchy-la-Ville and Outchy-le-Cha- teau. “In the center weak German forces have reached the north bank of the Marne, between Charteves and Jourlgonne.

U-BOAT, AFTER AMERICANS, SUNK BY BRITISH TRANSPORT German Craft Rammed and “Cut Like a Piece of Cheese” by Big Former Liner. By the Associated Press. AN ATLANTIC PORT, June 1.— A German submarine lying in wait for a transport carrying American troops, was rammed and sunk by a large British transport off the Irish coast in the sétond week in May, according to authentic information brought here today by an American returning from an important mission to England. The ship which sunk the submarine is one of the largest liners known to American and Euro- pean travelers and hit the U-boat full amidships after a torpedo had been fired and the transport was maneuvering to make way for an accompanying destroyer to drop depth charges. t is possible, the American said, that the submarine might have been forced to the surface by one of the) explosions.

The suggestion that pedestrians be punished for getting in the way of automobiles by makiftg crossings in the middle of the block or by “jay walking” at the regular crossings is included in the April grand jury's final report submitted to Judge Cal- houn ‘today. The report says that a large hum- ber of automobile accidents are due to the carelessness of pedestrians and their lack of ordinary prudence in protecting themselves. It is generally understood that sidewalks are for pedestrians and streets for traffic, the grand jury as- serts, but the pedestrian presumes that he has the privilege of both side- walks and streets and is continually ard persistently offending by such practices as making diagonal cross- ings, or going from curb to curb at places not regularly designated as crossings. Explains Driver’s Trouble. “No driver can anticipate acci- dents which may result to- pedestri- ans under such conditions,” says the report. “Why punish the driver and let the man on foot go unpunished? Making a turn with a.machine in the middle of a block makes the offend- er subject to arregt- ' Why, then, should not the pedestrian also be arrested and fined or punished for making a crossing contrary to the traffic laws? This matter of cross- ing the streets should be brought more forcibly to the public mind.” The report asserts that 25 automo- bile theft cases were considered and that the grand jury found that in many. cases automobiles are left on the streets flagrantly exposed to 'theft and not properly safeguarded with locks or other devices to pre- vent them from being stolen. The re- port says that locking as a precau- tion against theft should be made mandatory. All of the public institutions are praised except the central dispensary in the old city hall building at Eleventh and Chestnut street. This is referred to‘as an eyesore and “a horror to the parsimonious doling out of pennies to cover the need for dollars.” It is urged that the dispen- sary be housed in a modern building.

In Rheims and about Soissons the allied line held, but between these two pivots there seemed to be com- plete collapse, and the Germans have. been, and still are, pounding south- ward along the two main highways between Laon and the Marne, one of which reaches the Marne at Cha- teau Thierry, the other at Dormans.

And in this the French have been so far successful. Now, unless the Germans can widen their salient, which, between the Vesle and Sois- sons is not mors than a dozen miles wide, and. of equal depth, they will not only have to halt but.-to retreat, since their flanks and rear are al- ready threatened. In a word, the Germang have been and are thrusting into a narrow pocket, If they can widen this all the allied line east and west of the Oise between Soissons and Mont- didier will be in danger of envelop- ae and Foch may have to»make a long retreat. If they can widen :t to the eastward Rheims will go and with it all the high ground north of ine Marne and west of Chalons. This would mean dislocation of the allied front so great as to put Verdun in jeopardy and threaten the line north of Toul. But the Germans must widen their gap. They have reached and possi- bly passed the point of safety, so far as direct advance is concerned. If the French and British maintain their present positions, then, al- though the German thrust may reach the Marne and temporarily cut the Paris-Chalons-Nancy Railroad, ‘t will have the character of a raid and will be followed by a rapid retreat in a brief time.

It was explained today that the new rates apply to short lines only eo long as they are under Govern- ment control, and that as fast as these are relinquished by the rail- road administration the increased charges will cease to apply except as to joint rates with trunk lines. ‘Consequently the roads will be called on to apply to the Interstate Com- merce Commission for increases in _ their local rates if.they desire them.

HISPORY OF na UNIVER- wosiececnaien history of th: A University of Illinois has been prepared, in celebration of the University’s semi-centennial, which comes this year, the year of the State’s centennial The first vol- ume, which has been published, cov- ers the formative period from 1840 to 1870, and is entitled ‘“‘The Move- ment for Industrial Education and the Establishment of the Univer- sity.”’ Dr. Burt B. Powell, university his- torian, is the author, and the preface is by President Edmund J. James, fourth head of the institution. The author, in the first volume, has succeeded in giving his work general interest. This is because it deals with a great movement and a strong personality. Jonathan Bald- win Turner of Jacksonville, Il., is the hero of the story. Turner was a Yale graduate, a classical scholar, and a teacher of the classics in Illinois College at Jacksonville. But he became con- vineed that the chief educational need of [linois had more to do with subsoils, nitrates and legumes than with Greek roots. When he first advocated the establishment of a State agricultural and mechanical school, he was accused of trying to overthrow the system of collegiate education, then under denomina- tional control. Later, ‘when his movement had gained _ strength, some of the denominational! schools tried to divert it to their own inter- est, by proposing that the State funds be divided among them, each to add an agricultural or mechanical de- partment to its curriculum. Turner and a group of men sup- porting his plan stood out for a sep- arate and central State institution. which should not exclude literary and classical subjects from its course, but which should be pri- marily an agricultural and mechan- feal school, and not merely an agri- cultural and mechanical annex to a classical and literary school, One of the vicissitudes of the en- terprise was President Buchanan’s enterprise of the first proposed Fed- eral land grant. Equally serious dangers, later, were the squabbles of rival counties over the school’s lo- cation, and the manipulations of politicians. The author implies that Champaign’s victory in the location contest was won by means not wholly above suspicton. On the first faculty, headed by President Gregory, the number of | Baptists was so noticeable that the ery arose that the new institution was a retreat for wornout clergy- men of that denomination. How- ever, the first president and his fel- low Baptists on the teaching force are credited by the author with work which was about as good as the cir- cumstances would permit. Turner, it is shown, was at times pessimistic about the success of the enterprise he had founded. The first volume stops short of the point where the institution became a demonstrated success. (Published by the Univer- sity.) Se FLYING HERO’S LOVE LETTERS. B have had the aviator’s sto- W ry from .the mechanical and matter of fact point of view in several excellent books, so that av- jation as the war has developed it is somewhat familiar to most of us. “My Airman Over There,” pub- lished by Moffatt, Yard & Co., how- ever, is something new and differ- ent. Whether the anonymous author is &@ man or woman, or whether, as appears more probable, these love letters are the work of a man und a woman in collaboration, they are so original, so full of color, of life, that the reading public will not be satisfied until the mystery of their authorship is cleared up. 4 Here is the story of a young En- glishman of education and spirit, witty, efficient, and above all, hu- man; and of his young wife, whom ‘the honeymoon is ended, te engage in that desperate, heroic gamble with death that is being played by 50 many hundreds of youths today in the air over the battie lines. On the ene hand, his letters seem to show that no woman author could have in- vented them. They must have ‘been written by a flying man, fanailiar with all the tactics and the thrills that. go with actual warfare. ‘The wife's letters, on the other hand, are intengely feminine and full of spir- ituality. And her conclusions, when, ‘im spite of full faith to the contra- , she receives notice of his death, in so inspiring that the book ought to be in the hands of every woman who has a man at the front. whether fiying, in the trenches, or at any point where sudden death may snatch him from her. As love letters, they are full of that bright originality that comes from young people who are gay without, being flippant, and soulful without being sentimental. Incidentally, the glimpses. we got of England and the war front, with the airman’s descriptions of. fights with Hun opponents in the skies, give a continuity and realism to the letters that wil satisfy the reader who cares little for the _ spiritual touches in the boek. It is not often that we find rea) love combined with gripping ad) ventures described in such a way that we feel that, if these two young folks are creations of a fiction writer, they ought to have lived. S cers and members of Home Guard organizations in this part of the country are contained in the “‘Poliee Reserve and Home De- fense Guard Manual,”’ by Maj Wil- liam A. Dawkins of the New York City Police Reserve, and® Inspector Cornelius C. Cahalane. However, the book is designed chiefly for the in- struction of the Police Reserve, a form of organization which does not exist here. The infantry drill regu- lations are included. (Dutton.)

HE philosophy of the world war T in relation to human liberty is discussed by Dr. Edward Howard Griggs in a little volume which he calls “The Soul of Democ- racy,”’ and democracy, he thinks, can be spoken of as having a soul because it is more than a political device, even a “way of life.’”’ And the war is the supreme test of democracy and will settle the question whether free men, by. voluntary co-operation, can develop an efficiency and an ‘en- durance which will make it possible for them to stand and protect their liberties against’ the machinery and aggressive ambitions of autocratic empires where everything is done pa- ternally from the top. The conflict of ideas in the war, he says, is between Germany’s su- preme conception ofthe dedication ef man to the state, and the in- stinctive and tenacious belief of the Anglo-Saxon in the liberty and in- itiative of the individual. The as- tounding anomaly of modern civiliza- tidn, he says, “is the way we have lagged péhind in applying to groups and nations of men the moral laws universally recognized as binding over individuals.“ The respective values of democracy and paternalism for efficiency, invention, endurance and the welfare and progress of hu- manity are studied and conclusions favorable to democracy are reached.

In this volume of nearly 400 pages the well-known leader of the Ethical Culture movement gives his ripest conclusions on ethics after 40 years’ experience in active social service.

Among other things Spargo con- demns syndicalism, the I. W. W. movement with jts sabotage program and the liquor traffic. The book was written before the outbreak of the war.

Real novelties in film production are scarce enough to merit more than passing mention. This merit is claimed for ‘“‘Prunella,” the five-par: Paramount picture which will Le shown at the West End Lyric and Lyric Skydome for the week begin- ning tomorrow, with Marguerit> Clark as the star. “Prunella” is rated as one of the greatest successes Miss Clark eve: scored on the speaking stage, and it marked her last appearance before the footlights. It was her work in this quaint drama that attracted the attention of Adolph Zukor, motioi picture magnate, who deftly cap- tured her with his, film net. Her role is that of an innocent girl reared by three maiden aunts in a beautiful ‘Dutch garden” which is virtually her prison, as the aunts, seeking to shield her from worldly contamination, will not permit her to go beyond the garden’s confines. But Prunella elopes with a stroll- ing player, who takes her with him to odd places around the globe. The settings are fanciful and the, char- acters are almost “dream people.” The audience practically is trans- ported to another world and in or- der to foster this delusion the scen- ery has purposely been made _ gro- tesque, in keeping with the char- acters and the obvious visionarv events of the action. In addition to this feature the pro- gram will include a Mack Sennett comedy and a Pathe Weekly. Having been almost everything else, including a village blacksmith, William Desmond, in a new picture now under way, will impersonate an officer in the Northwestern Mounted [ Police. We seem to have heard that Douglas Fairbanks once did some- thing of the kind. HANNEGAN GETS A CONFESSION AS HIS FIRST OFFICIAL TASK M. J. Walsh Admits Before New De- tective Chief That Shot He Fired Killed Bernard Fey. When John P. Hannegan, new Chief of Detectives, took charge of the department today, the first piece of business transacted in his office was taking the confession of Martin 3. Walsh, 27 years old, of 1725 North Jefferson avenue, who shot and killed Bernard Fey of 1524 Agnes. street at 9:45 p. m. May 23 on Jef- ferson avenue near University street. Fey was shot as he was walking along the street and died without arrested the next day, denied that he had fired the shot until confronted with evidence which prompted him to confess. He said he had been drinking and when he found a revolver in an alley he fired a shot at a telegraph pole across the street but did not see any- body. Expecting that the shot would attract the police, he said, he went inte Nolte’s saloon and threw the revolver on the bar and said he had been trying it out and asked Ben Knapp, the barkeeper, to keep it for a while. Somebody came in to eall an am- bulance and he went to St. Louis and then went back and learned that a man had been killed and went home. Public, Seciety and school Libraries in the Ww Ss.

Barney Sherry, in another of those “society thief’? dramas which have made him famous, will be the in headliner at the Kings Theater for) the week beginning tomorrow. The title of his latest offering is “High Stakes’’ and it is said to be another of the seemingly endless variations on his favorite theme and scheme of |; showing how easy ‘it is to fool the astute Scotland Yard detectives. The mystery starts when Ralph Stanning steals a famous diamond necklace from the Kensington Mu- seum and Inspector Reginald Cul- vert is “put on the job.” The efforts of the crook and the detective to outwit each other furnishes much of the action. On the bill also will be Margery Wilson in “Old Loves for New,” in which a wife does not learn to love her husband until she has seen him knock out the cowboy villain. CARMEL MYERS AT THE ROYAL IN “A BROADWAY SCANDAL" Heroine Is a French Girl Who Con- vinces the Hero She Is Not Friv- olous and Sends Him to War.

It is the story of a young American doctor who has been led to believe that all French women are frivolous. After he meets pretty Nanette Bisson and has learned to love her he has a new point of view, and the climax shows how the realiza- tion causes him to go to war. Moving picture actors and ac- tresses have a grievance against the daylight saving regulation.

If it should be of importance to ‘their purposes to have a _ representative here tonight so far reaching is their power that they would have such a representative here.” M’ADOO GALLS UPON KITCHIN. OVER WAGE DEMANDS Building Trades Committee Asks Acting Mayor for Emergency Salary Standardization... Sixteen representatives of build- ing and trades unions called on Act- ing Mayor Hall today and urged that an emergency clause be added to the salary standardization bill, which, if passed, will give full union wages to all union men working at their trades in city employment. Water Commissioner Wall report- ed that six carpenters at the Bis- sell’s Point pumping station quit work this morning and that seven or eight electrical workers were ready to walk out if not assured that they would receive union pay. The union representatives pointed out that if passed with the emer- gency clause the bill may be effect- ive as early as July 10, while with- out this clause it would not be ef- fective until»Aug. Il. The union men first insisted that the bill be passed as an emergency measure not later than Monday, but Mayor Hall told them he would pre- fer to take no final action in the absence from the city of Mayor Kiel, and the Building Trades representa- tives agreed to wait until next Wednesday night for the passage of the bill. Chairman Hertenstein of the Ef- ficiency Board, who drew up the bill, told the conferees they could not af- ford to tie up the city waterworks with a strike. Thegbill would affect about 1500 union men employed by the city in various capacities, mostly in the building trades. ——_—_— Thin Endy Hair or ThickandHealthy?

WASHINGTON, June 1.-—Secre- tary McAdoo has called upon Rep- resentative Kitchin of North Caro- lina, Democratic floor leader in the House, to retract his assertion In a ‘speech that a publishers’ lobby work- ing for repeal of the zone system of increased postage rates influenced the decision of the administration to insist upon revenue legislation at this seasion of Congress. Kitchin told the House in the speech he did not believe Secretary McAdoo thought about the newszpa- pers and magazines one way or the other, but believed a lobby had made itself felt with some in whose judg- ment the Secretary had great faith. “Let a Post-Dispatch Real Estate ad talk for you when the man with some money is looking for an investment. 4 That itching which keeps you awake at night, barrass- and forces you to scratch at the most em ing times, is almost sure to yield to Resinol Oint- ment.

No resident of Germany (with the exception of my two sisters, who were born in this country, as men- tioned above) has a dollar invested in any enterprise with which I am connected. My father always en- joyed a visit to Germany. I think he had a certain pride on those visits in showing his friends in Ger- many what he had accomplished as an American. He was intensely American, and the most promiment thing in his beautiful office in St. Louis, where I write this letter, is the great American eagle, in mrenes, in paintings, and in other forms, and his friends knew of no more ac- ceptable decoration with which to present him, He has been the dinner guest of at least one, perhaps two, American presidents, and. left a memory too-much cherished by his family to be besmirched by any un- patriotic word or deed at such a time citis. . rt. 4448 North Market; pneumonia. get ee 23. 1022 S.

Of coutse, it’s just a white sauce, you know—but the secret is that to it I add about half a tablespoonful of Al Sauce—my miracle worker. And un- less the flavor of the dish itself is very delicate that sauce just turns it into an ethereal Frenchy creation with piquancy plus! My famous cream of celery soup gets its charm out of that same bottle of Al Sauce, and indeed so do pee | other dishes which used to be flat an tasteless under the old-fashioned plain white sauce. It’s wonderful what a dash of Al Sauce will do,—ADV, teeta ST Your credit ts good if you regt a or your druggist will phone the ah, 23% fA

TOWN HALL “L AFTER THE f BOMBARDMENT, STILL! S “TANDING | BUT. BADLY DAMAG ED. By BRAND WHITLOCK, United States Minister to Belgium. that evening. In the Grand Place the field kitchens steamed, and at each en- trance were dark silhouettes of the lancers on guard. Under the spreading trees the dust hung e fog and each of the lamps along the boule- ds burnéd at the center of a luminous ball. In the shadows were small groups of men in Their faces, when one could see them, were sad, and there were those who went weeping through the gloom. The houses were all.closed; there were no lights anywhere; the flags were down. The gray hosts continued to pour down the Chaussee de Lou- vain and along the boulevards. Only in the Palace Hotel wads there light and brilliancy, for there the officers of the German army were dining. _. ' The city was strangely still, TT: twilight seemed to have gathered earlier overwhelmed in its sorrow, and weary to the very bones and sick at heart, I went home with the sensations of one who has been compelled'\to witness a shame- ful deed in the humiliation of the proud, beau- tiful, sensitive living creature that had been Brussels. We had expected John McCutcheon, Irvin Cobb, Will Irwin and Arno Dorsch to dine with us that night. Wight o’clock came and they did not come, nor had we any news of them. In their stead, and in their places at the table there was another guest, always punctual, come to stay a long time, old Haggard Care. I felt the load of a great fesponsibility that settled-down upon my shoulders, for I had borne through so many years the .responsibility of another city, and I worried now about these old, these too reckless and adventurous friends. Then in the evening came M. Sarzana, the auditor of the Papal Nonciature, to inform me that the Pope had died that afternoon at half- past:1 o’clock. He sat there in his long black sou- tane, distress in his Italian countenance, as though. the world had come to an end and the heavens were about to be rolled up together like a scroll. And-it might well have seemed indeed that they were! | was, of course, the note of iron inevi- table in all human catastrophe. The latest edi- tion of Le Soir was lying on my table, with whole half-columns staring blank and white, the work of tlie censor. But its leading article paid ‘that the situation: was excellent, that the french and English armies were on the way, and that. the future could be viewed with confidence! c Germans Stream Through | Es, through the night the field gray hosts wound through the city, an. undulating ™. @tream of bayonets and helmets, and Brus- id. awoke to find on its walls great white af- German, signed by Gen. Sixt von Afriim, threatening reprisals of any overt act of hostility occurred, demanding, in addition, a contribution of 50,000,000 francs, as well as immense quantities of supplies, and sum- moning the province of Brabant to deliver up 0,000,000 francs by the ist of September. For Sang and three nights the gray stream by, and Brussels was crushed ‘by the sor- — and humiliation of an alien occupation. ‘There was the same phenomenon of the brilliant eun, though there were no longer any Belgian =. catch its wonderful light in their folds. cook stoves were burning in the Grand their sentinel ‘were to atop; there were no horses, suddenly no wee, no taxis, no automobiles except those in *+German officers raced about town, a sol- ier on the box with a rifle across his knees. ere were no telegraphs and no telephones-and, gest _phenomenon of all, there were no It was as though we had suddenly into the dark, for, however inaccu- ae ats newer would have served as a clear- for the wild and fearful rumors that had heard firing and seen the flash e eastern ge Soll were f the just outside the town; or er bad mounted cannone at dette St Pierre i : | order to bombard Brussels if the tribute money were not raised by Sunday morning! The Em- peror of Austria was dead; Engiand had declared war on Holland and the United States on Ger- many, and everybody came to the legation. tp learn if the rumors were true. The flood of them, mounting all the day, seemed to be at full tide in the somber hour of twilight. Of a piece of them were thosé silly, romanticis- tic fales, ces blagues (those humbugs), of my ac- tivities; tales that by their currency were to plague me for so many weeks. The first of those melodramatic tales, assigning to me a role for which I was never in any wise designed, was to the effect that I had gone out to the east of town to meet the German army and had told.the commanding officer, with I know not what the-: atrical flourish, that’ if one stone of Brussels was touched, America would declare war on Ger- many. The ridiculous tale was spread about in Brussels and in Belgium, and over the seas, to be published and wafted abroad to no purpose other than to afford one more superfluous proof of the place the cinema has in the affections of man- kind and of that inveterate vice of reporters, who foolishly think that they can imagine something that is more interesting than the truth. g No Food, No Money . At the legation there were numerous callers, American, English, Belgian, each with his pecu- liar personal problem, his little worry, his desire for comfort and reassurance, and we were § be- deviled all day with the difficulties of getting off dispatches. The Germans had been most kind, , bowed, smiled, saluted even, and assured us they ‘could go—but they never went and when we went to learn the reason why we were sent from pil- lar to post and from Peter to Paul, wih protesta- tions, explanations, apologies even. But the dis- patches remained undispatched. On Saturday morning at half-past 7 o’clock I was awakened out of a deep sleep, and there was Gustave, very white and shaken, saying in a breathless voice: “Les Allemands sont la! Deux genereaux!” (“The Germans are there! Two Generals!’’) I put on a dressing gown and went down, and there in my office was Gen. von Jarotsky and a nice looking young aid-de-camp, politely come to return my call. “Je ne suis pas encore en uniforme.” (“T-am not yet in uniform”) I said, offering my excuses for my attire, and the General laughed, slapping his yellow puttees with a little ‘silver-headed riding crop. He expressed his regret that the telegrams had not been sent,. but- he had ar- ranged all with the Director of Telegraphs and I could now send them to the bureau. When, the long day having slowly declined to- ward 10:30 a. m., Villalobar came and I could give him: the good news about our dispatches, we drove to the Bureau of Telegraphes, but. the noncommissioned officer was patient, stolid and unmoved—and the dispatches were not sent. It was useless, and we gave up and drove away to the Hotel de Ville. We found M. Max in his bu- reau, explained the situation, and he sent for Gen. von Jarotsky, who appeared, bowing, smil- ing, clicking his spurs; it was very strange, he said; let them bring in the Directeur des Tele- sraphes immediately before him and he would issue instructions that should be final. One could not help feeling sorry for the Directeur des Tele- graphes, in view of what was about to mappen to him. Then the General and the Burgomaster dis- cussed the conditions of the city, growing hourly more desperate. M, Max explained there was no food,’no forage for the horses, and finally, re- serving the worst for the last, that there was no money in the banks—so that he could not pay the levy. At this revelation the General started from his seat and demanded explanations, and M. Max went on to tell him that the treasure in the Banque Nationale, upon which the whole of the financial system of Belgium is based, had all been transferred to Antwerp. “They did wrong. It was not correct, that!” said the General, growing red. M. Max shrugged his shoulders and Mon Gen- eral reflected. Finally he said that he would accept checks, notes or some written evidence of PHOTAS BY GROWN BROS BELGIA | | REFUGEES FLEEING BEFORE THE ONRUSHING GERMANS: A> tad.

Max explained that he had taken advantage of our presence to | mention to the General the difficult point about the. 50,000,000 francs;. he was.glad of our com- pany and countenance as he broke the news toa the peppery little man. The Bourgmestre, expecting someone, asked us to wait in the Salle du College, where the eche- vins (Aldermen) in the room with the great oak | |_ table and'the high backed chairs and the tapes- | tries of the time of Charles V., their various coats 'of arms allt open to Villalobar—asked us with. | | many apologies for it had been turned into a chamber for him; and it was given a somewhat | more modern and contemporary note by the lit- | tle iron cot .where the, brave Burgomaster slept | those troubled nights—and a valise and toilet case with a little mirror on a table and a change of clothes hung over a chair. Finally the Directeur des Telegraphes came, 72 miserable little man with the dismal air of one in Sunday blacks, a typical | rond de cuir, who | eould accumulate difficulties and find excuses, | like functionaries the world over, whether at Nashapur or Babylon, whether at Brussels or To- ledo, who are much more fertile in reasons why a given thing cannot be done than in expedients to get it accomplished. When the Bourgmestre came in: he wrote out an order, designed to over- come the official reluctance of the directeur, went out, and returned presently, flourishing the order triumphantly, for it had the General’s sig- nature. & Our Difficult Position } the Germans entered Brussels, our posi- Diplomatic repre- sentatives accredited to the King of the Belgians, our place was near the court and the Government, A S Count Bottara-Costa had said the morning tion there was delicate. which had retired to_Antwerp. I realized this fact, of course, and had discussed and settled the point of etiquette with Monsieur Davignon, ‘the Belgian Minister for Foreign Affairs. The situation was unprecedented. Never be- fore, save when the Germans entered Paris in 1870, had diplomats remained when a court and Government had gone, and the cases were not precisely on all fours, as the lawyers say. The Germans had shown us personally every courtesy and yet we were not in communication with our Governments; between us and the _ telegraph wires in Antwerp were hostile armies, and it was/| not difficult to imagine that there might be un- easiness in those four capitals where Govern- ments were waiting for word from us. And then on that Sunday, a day of dull and rainy skies, as if the fine weather were weary at last, a man somehow got through the lines from Ghent, rid- ing as though he had been in Browning’s poem, with a letter from our Consul, Mr. Johnson, bear- ing two telegrams for me from Washington, one approving my course’ and the other raising the question of whether the delegation should not be removed to Antwerp to keep in communication with the Belgian Government. I had a feeling, and it was only a feeling, that my place was in Brussels. Indeed, on Sunday morning, after the entry of the Germans, the Count S——, an official of the Foreign Office, had come to the legation formal- ly to express. gratitude ‘‘on behalf of the King and his people,’”’ and appreciation of our attitude toward Belgium in having advised the Burgo- master not to offer futile resistance to the Ger- man army; he was generous enough to say that our action had saved the City. I had no vision of what was coming, of course, but I had a strong impression that for the mo- ment there was work to be done there. ‘There were people in trouble; they were coming to the legation at all hours of the day and night, and while in most cases sympathy was all one could give them, it seemed in many of those cases to be what they most needed and desired. There were Americans and American interests to be looked after, and I had assumed, also, the protection of British interests in the land. Arfa then the mere presence of diplomatic representa- tives of neutral Powers was itself a king of re- straint, and especially the presence of repre- sentatives of America, whose public opinion al- most immediatély became the jury before which the world tried its great cause. & A Disgrantled General But we must get into communication with Washington and with civilization again, and since our dispatches would not be forwarded from Brusselé—the directeur never sent oné of them —and since the nearest telegraph station was Antwerp, it was necessary to go to Antwerp. For this service Gibson volunteered, and Mr. Blount, an American, volunteered to drive him in his car. I found my General with an aid and an order- ly just dismounted from sweating steeds on the steps of the Escalier d’'Honneur in the court of the Hotel de Ville, brandishing his riding crop, very red, shouting to a group of Brussels trades- people, come to present their bons for comman- deered goods and imploring payment. One after THE EIGHTH INSTALLMENT ODAY ts published the eighth in- ei stallment of Brand Whitlock’s story of the tragedy of Belgium. In the last installment was printed the scenes 4n Brussels as the ‘‘gray, grim hordes” of Germans invested the city and poured on through on the way to France. The historical narrative of the United States Mimster will be published entire in the Post-Dispatch, a full page ap- pearing every Saturday. ™ the other the General snatched the little papers from the uplifted suppliant hands, and one by one returned them with a gruff “Nicht gut!” and then seeing mé, rushed forward smiling with outstretched hands and a welcoming “Ah, mon Ministre!”” We-went.up through the noble halls, already transformed by signs that had been put up for the convenience of the Brussels people having dealimgs there, although with some lack of imagination they were all in German, and with a smile he gave me a laisser-passer permit- ting Gibson and Blount to pass through the lines to Antwerp and to return; and after luncheon they started on their dangerous ‘mission with the cipher telegrams I had prepared for Washington. HERE was nothing then but-to wait and I tk could not resist the temptation to remain out of doors all the afternoon, in the sweet air’s anodyne, to drive in the Bois once more, though somewhat to my dismay I found that our motor, with its little flag, attracted an atten- tion that was apt to prove embarrassing the crowds assembled uncovered as the tiny flag went fluttering by and cried “‘Vive L’Amerique!”’ (‘Long live America,’’) Brussels showed after all few outward signs of change save an occasional body of tired soldiers marghing along, now and then a motor filled with officers whizzing by, and the folded vans of the Kermesse*making tiganes. There were few vehicles in the street, and life was dead; there was sadness and humiliation and fear. The Red Cross flag, however, still floated from the tower of the Hotel de Ville—and high on Ste Gudule the Belgian flag remained. The Rue de Namur looked more like old times, the shops were peeping out one by one, beginning to re- sume business. Pe Breweries Not Molested When I could no longer postpone my return to the legation, trouble, ever punctual, was wait- ing on the door sill; a throng of frightened wom- en. The first of them to accost me was a charm- ing Russian woman, very pretty, who might have stepped out of one of Tourgenieff’s novels when I asked her why she had not gone to the Amer- ican committee so near her house in the ot: de Naples,eshe replied: “Parce qu’il vaut mieux s’adresser a Dieu qu’a ses saints!” (‘Because it is better tO appeal to God than to His saints!’’) She had heard that all the inhabitants of Brus- sels had been ordered to leave the city within 15 minutes.* | was like that every evening. By 6 o’clock the day’s rumors and alarms reached high tide and overflowed into the legation. One said that the Germans had been routed and were falling back, intending to bombard Brussels; an- other had heard of soldiers at Nivelles killed in such numbers that they had not room to fall, but remained standing dead before the French trenches in mass formation; and then there was that wild story to the effect that Belgians were to leave Brussels in 15 minutes. And when I told them there was no truth in the rumor, and that they might go safely home, they said: “We shall burn a long candle to you!” It was perhaps some consolation for being what Hermancito Bulle called “uno pano de la-; grimas."’ We had news, however, of our correspondents. McCutcheon and Cobb and Irwin and Dorch hal come back from Louvain, but had left immedi- ately for the front, going toward the south. The news was brought by Will Irwin, who had turned back from his advance overcome by illness, but McCutcheon, Cobb and the others had gone on, hoping to get to Nivelles. As for Davis, he had disappeared, no one knew where. Admirable men, nothing daunted, always cool, gay, debon- nair. But one worried over them. It was as quiet as a Sunday morning in an Ohio village; there were few vehicles in the streets— unless a cannon be called a vehicle—for @otors and horses had been commandeered antl those that had escaped this fate were hidden away lest it overtake them. The breweries, always scrupu- lously respected by the Germans, continued to PR 2 MS ee to “ALL THAT THE GERMANS LEFT.

JOSEPH PULITZER. April 10, 1907. Sg ; “LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE ise The Social Service Report. Be the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. ' The Post-Dispatchggh my judgment, Save the fairest and most impartial ac- count of the discussion concerning the re- port of the Social Service Commission of the Diocese of Missouri that appeared in ‘any newspaper. Therefore I send this let- te; for publication in the Post-Dispatch in ‘erder to correct one particulasly wrong @onclusion which is being drawn from our Teport. I am afraid that the Excise Com- Piissioner, Mr. Lewis, will be subjected to unwarranted criticism. The report of the commission did find that - objectionable ‘¢onditions still exist here. There is noth- ing. yery startling in that, St. Louis not yet.being Utopia. But the report expressly stated that the Excise Commissioner and the Police Department are to be congratu- lated for having so materially improved conditions over those of a year ago that we .are convinced of the sincerity of all those officials and that we bespeak for ~them the co-operation of all Christian differing in ahy respect from that of the other two? The elements of surprise and vast superiority in force are the distinctive features of all three tremendous attacks. But if the two prior drives teach anything, it is that the degree of success obtainable by such means has definite limits. ‘ Probably 25 miles has been gained at the point of farthest penetration between Soissons and Rheims. The grave danger to the allies of such an advance is not to be belittled. But what is 25 miles gained at part of the front, compared with 25 miles added\to what has already been gained at the scene of the first drive or the second? Twenty-five miles more, gained at the point where they were stopped in the first drive, would place the Germans far to the west and south of Amiens. Twenty-five miles more, gained at the point where they were stopped in the second drive, would place them almost in sight of the sea- coast. But the Germans had no stomach for continuing effort at the scene of those former efforts. The allies there are prepared for them. A further measuring of strength on those sectors had too many possibilities of disaster. So they turned to a new extent of the front. But can surprise and preponderating force con- tinue dependable factors indefinitely? No magic exists in numbers, but many facts suggest the three-times-and-out cycle. From its very nature, surprise must be a short-lived factor, and with every employment of preponderating force the problem of replacing losses is intensified. With every aftack on a new front the German freedom of initiative is narrowed. Their eruption in three places having been securely dammed up —that it will be dammed up in the third is not to be doubted—where can they turn next? Just a little to the east of the Rheims sector interest in it, but this, too, is typical of Missou- rians. They are a canny lot.

In the British army alone 98 of them have been killed, 20 more are prisoners and 100 have been seriously wounded. The Anglican church is sending 45 a month into the firing line and this takes no account of the chaplains not af- filiated with the establishment. Strictly speaking these men are non-com- batants. Under the laws of war they have no right to bear arms or to resist the enemy -with pistol, rifle, grenade or bayonet. When they go into “No Man’s Land,” they are not inspired with the lust of combat. Half the moral courage of the ordinary soldier who is being shot at lies in the fact that he can shoot back. ‘The chap lain is deprived of this support. When the fighting rage is on, most men are willing to risk a trip in Charon’s boat provided they can expect a reasonable quota of the enemy as fellow pas- sengers. The chaplain, even if he admitted such a heathenish theory, knows he would be indebted to somebody else for his co-wayfarers. And yet they risk their lives freely and, im- perturbably, these followers of the Gallileean, daring the dangers of the battlefield to give the viaticum to some poor wretch who will kill no more, ready with a word of courage to stimulate the faltering or one of cheer to encourage the disheartened, preaching by example as well as by precept the ancient virtues of honor and stead- fastness, proving to their friends that it is bet- ter to die nobly than to live ignobly. People of the Anglo-Sa¥on races are not wont to palaver much over their preachers—are, in- fleed, inclined to treat the reverend gentlemen with rather less veneration than most peoples show to their priests. But there is between them a tie of the profoundest respect,.as deserved oh the one side as it is appropriate on the other. The American and English army chaplain of to- day, whether of the oldest heirarchy or of the newest non-conformist creed, is a fit follower of those sturdy men of God who sent their laymen into the charge at. Acre, at Marston Moor or at Naseby with a psalm on their lips and a prayer in their hearts, +o That little red penny box which has been ad- ded to the nickel trap is not a shock absorber. 8 S yeu = acd Nig tx ‘=> BS Oe f ——ite yi ae See Sh MES Pe ASE aK a ni oni: AER eth AP SABER A Na ee DCE RAED A OR CAA EER eal ENR Oy BTC PRP nS . is wy y ry a “t.° €: "The MIR RORY os ie PUBLIC OPENIN : well sermon as pastor of a churely . oe the North and West who coald be drawn in this great crisis. ee It is admitted by every mentee that a serious blunder was made years « | when the fron and steel industry was o centrated so largely in the Chicago-P’ burg-Atlantic coast district, This de stop — ment far exceeds the ability oe reton roads to handle the traffic.

Many diseases are spread through the careless rudeness of persons If everyone will guard against this unhy- gienic practice, they will help in teducing such serious diseases as bron- chitis, pneumonia, meningitis, infantile paralysis, tuberculosis, — T is well recognized by health officers that all of these diseases are spread or communicated by the transfer of nose. and mouth secre tions from one person to another.

ITTLE Wooden Horse-on- Wheels came first to the play- room to live, and for a long time he reigned supreme; then, one . Christmas, Rocking Horse came and little Horse-on-Wheels was pushed aside. He lived over in the corner by the wall, with Woolly Dog-on- Wheels and Calico Cat and Teddy Bear. The little master gave all his time to Rocking Horse and an Indian suit. One night the clock struck 12 and Rocking Horse threw up his head and waved his long white mane with pride; he pranced and he rocked while all the other toys looked on with admiration, for Rocking Horse was the biggest toy in the room. “Tl suppose you could run very fast if those rockers were off your feet?” inquired a big soldier in red. “Run? Why, of course, Soldier,”’ replied Rocking Horse. “I am a rac- ing horse; of course I can run right away from any horse you Dring around here. I can beat anyone, even with these rockers on. I am not afraid to race if you should hap- pen to find a horse to race with me.” Teddy Bear gave Horse-on-Wheels a poke in the side. ‘““‘Why don’t you race with him?” he asked. “I know you coluld beat him across the room even if he is big.” ‘Yes, do try; Rocking Horse thinks he is so very fast. Do race with him,” said Woolly Dog on Wheels. “I know you can beat him,” said Calico Cat. ‘‘He only rocks and you could run acress the floor While he was taking one rock. Go _ along, Horse-on-Wheels. We will stand by you.” By and by Horse-on-Wheels be- gan to take courage. He shook out his mane, which was all tangled and matted for want of care; then he whisked his tail about and awoke little Worsted Boy Doll, who was fast asleep nearby.

Little Horse-on-Wheels would have run back to his corner by the wall, but Boy Doll held the bridle tight and patted him, S8aying: “Now be brave; you will beat that big fel- low so easily you will laugh when it is over.’ “Ready, start!’’ said Soldier, and Boy Doll gave Horse-on-Wheels a shove as he let go of him and Soldier gave Rocking Horse a shove also, but it was no use; the race was won before Rocking Horse lifted his head.

At least for this summer feminine folk be- lieve in these fabrics and are giving them hon- ored places in the wardrobe, So it is that frocks for tiny tots will favor gingham and percale, a pretty design for which is offered in my sketch. A dull blue background with white flowers in percale is com- bined with plain white or plain blue, The be- coming round yoke, the deep sleeve bands and skirt band are attached by means of a seam beading of Ham- burg or lace or a very narrow white finishing braid.

And especially if she learns I am on the case.’ “How could she know that?” Ruth Schuyler asked. ‘I’m sure Miss Van Allen is a most clever and ingenious young woman,” Stone replied, “and I feel sure she knows all that is going on. She gets information from the papers, and, too, she has that dependable maid, Julie. That woman, probably dis- guised, can do much in the way of getting information as to how mat- ters are progressing. You see, I’ve followed the case all the way along, and the peculiarities and unique con- ditions of it are what induced me to take it up.’’ S Stone, for the discovery of the hiding place of Miss Van Al- len?" asked Rhoda, eagerly. ‘I want to uso every possible means of find- ing her.” , “Not yet, Miss Schuyler.

There will be no half-way work about it. If can’t learn the truth in a short time, I fear I never can.” “How strange,” said I. “Do you often feel thus about the beginning of a case?”’ “Very rarely, almost never. And never have I felt it so strongly as in this instance. To trace that girl is not a matter of long and patient search, it’s rather a question of a bit of luck or a slight slip on her part, or—well—of ‘some coincidence or chance ‘discovery that will clear things at one flash.” “Then you're depending on luck?” exclaimed Rhoda, in a disappointed tone. “Oh, not that,” and Stone smiled. “At least, I'm not depending entirely on that. If luck comes my Way, so much the better. And now, please let me see the notes Miss Van Allen has written.” None was available, however, ex- cept the one to Ruth Schuyler. For the one to Randolph Schuyler was in Lowney’s possession and the one I had had from Vicky, and which was even then in my pocket, I had no intention of showing. - It was not necessary, however, for Fleming Stone said one was enough to gather all «that he could learn from her chirography. He studied it attentively, but only for a moment. Then he said “A characteristic penmanship, but to me it only shows forcefulness, ingenuity - A an expert, I only get a general im- pression and the traits I’ve mentioned are undoubtedly to be found in the lady’s nature. lh gos they not?” and he turned to as to one who knew. wr HEY are,” I replied, “so far as I know Miss Van, Allen. But my acquaintance with her is limited, and I can only agree , aaa Stone eyed me closely, and I began to feel a little uncomfortable under his gaze. Clearly, I'd -have to tell the truth, or incur his suspicion. Nor did I wish to prevaricate. I felt friendly toward poor little Vicky. and yet, I had no mind to run coun- ter to the interest of Ruth Schuyler. The two sisters I didn’t worry about, and indeed, they could look out for themselves. But Ruth Schuyler was in a position to demand justice, and if that justice accused Vicky Van, I must be honest and fair to both in my testimony. . Fleming Stone proceeded to ques- tion the women, more definitely and concisely now, and by virtue of his marvelous efficiency, he so shaped his inquiries that he learned details with accuracy and rapidity. It would never have occurred to me to ask the questions that he put, but as he went on I saw their per- tinence and value. With Ruth's permission he called several of the servants and asked them a few things. Nothing of mo- ment transpired, to my mind, but Stone was interested in a full account of where each servant was and what he was doing on the night of the murder. Bach gave a straightfor- ward and satisfactory account, and I realized that Stone was enly get- ting a sense of the household atmos- and good nature. However, I'm not ler himself. Tibbetts, the middle-aged maid of Ruth Schuyler, told of the shock to her mistress when the news was brought: ‘Mrs. Schuyler had retired,” said | Tibbetts, “at about 10 o'clock, Mr. | Schuyler was out, and was not ex- | pected home until late. I attended | her, and after she was in bed, I went to bed myself.” “I’m told you do not live here,” commented Stone, though in a disin- terested way, and at the same time making notes of some other matters in his notebook. “TIT have a room around on Third avenue,” replied Tibbetts. “I like 4 little home of my own, and when Mrs. Schuyler permits me, I g0 ‘round there to sleep, and sometimes I go in the daylight hours. But on that night I happened to be ones here.” “Tibbetts is rather a ‘intlbaaiit character,’’ interposed Ruth “She has been with me for many years, and as she likes a little place of her own, I adopted the ‘plan of which she has told you. “But that night you were here?” said Stone to the maid. “Yes, sir. I slept in Mrs. Schuy-. ler’s dressing room, as I always do when I’m here. Then when Jepson told me the—the awful news, I awoke Mrs. Schuyler and told her.” ' “Yes,” said Stone. “I read all about that in the inquest report.” CHAPTER XIV. . Walls Have Tongues.

PIRATES WIN ANOTHER Sherdel, Horstman and May Were Bumped in 12 to 7 De- feat for Club Yesterday. , PITTSBURG, June 1.—The Car- dinals and Pirates left together last night for New York and today are in the camp of the Eastern enemy. The Cardinals cross the river to Flat- bush today to do business with the Brooklyn Dodgers. The two staged a “wonderful” exhibition of the na- tional pastime here yesterday and it is a safe bet that players of both teams got a lot of bad playing out of their systems before invading the classic and effete East. The Pirates won, 12 to 7. Frank Snyder was unlucky in hav- ing nine bases stolen on him, as in two of the cases a double steal was recorded when a perfect thro o the plate would have retired the runner ang eliminated four of the pilfers. The Cards got away to a beautiful start, and it looked like a bad guess for Jack Hendricks to take Sherdell out in the third inning after three Pirates had hit safe. Certainly noth- ing was gained by bringing Horst- man to the scene, and it might have been different had the left-hander remained on the rubber. But that is only a second guess. Jake May pitched the best ball of the six who appeared on the rubber for the two teams, but he yncorked a wild pitch that sent over two run- ners, and it is likely that he was thinking of the draft when he blew that one over. He had just reacned his twenty-first birthday, and yes- terday registered here to that effect. Hornsby Hits Well. Hornsby hit timely both yesterday and Thursday afternoon, as on each occasion it was his single that sent the first two runs over the plate, Jacobs was the first Pirate pitcher to face the Cards and all four hits were made off wide curves. The bats- men stepping partly out of the box and meeting the ball as it was break- - | ing. The funniest play of a really funny game came in the ninth inning. Tuero was on second, having been sent in to run for Snyder, and Gofizales was on first, he having batted for May and sent to first on four wide balls. - Dunn of Soldan Clips 1-5 Second Off 440-Yard Run Standard in the Senior Events—Leffler Is Individual Star—McKinley Easily Wins, Scoring 79 Points. NE record was broken, and three were tied, in the annual Interschol- astic League track and field. meet held at Francis Field yesterday afternoon. The standard shattered was in the 440-yard senior run, in which Fred Dunno of Soldan breasted the tape in 523-5 seconds, beating the old mark “by 1-5 second. The marks tied were in the senior low hur: dles and the junior 50 and 100 yard Athletes of McKinley High School again won the championship—it be- ing their eighth straight triumph. The surprise of the carnival was the easy manner in which the South Siders landed the honors. In the senior. events, they counted 56 points against 61 for the other four schools together. They scored 23 in the junior, which gave them a total of 79. Soldan with 47 was second, Cleveland third with » 44, Central fourth, 35, and Yeatman fifth with 20. Junior High failed to gain Leffler Is Individual Star. Dean Leffler of McKinley, rated as the best athlete in local interscholas- tic circles, was the individual star of the meet. He had four firsts to. his credit, while in the 220 low hurdles he tied his own record of 264-5 sec- onds. He also won the 120-yard high hurdles, the broad jump and the dis- cus throw. However, while Leffler was the star of the seniors, too much credii cannot be given Bill Bremser of Cen- tral. Just prior to the meet Brem- ser had a boil on his neck lanced and was bleeding continuously. How- ever this did not ‘stop him from land- ing second in the 100-yard dash and broad jump and third in the 220 dash and shot put. He also ran an anchor man on the relay team and it was his brilliant sprinting that gave Cen-, tral a victory over McKinley. Brem- ser’s unofficial time for the 220 yards against Leffler was 211-5 seconds, which is 1 4-6 seconds better than high school record of 23 seconds. Bremser started 10 yards to the rear of his rival. zg Harvey, the 14-year-old Central youth, proved the star of the junior events, and looks like one of the best track prospects in the city.

The Governor of Connecticut, when it was announced that Willard and Fulton had been matched for 4% title bout at Danbury, gave one warning growl and the promoters showed a ten-flat sprint for the tele- graph wire to call off arrangements. This time the match is coming up under different auspices, duly sugar- coated with war fund promises to sweeten the gubernatorial temper. Then, too, it will not be a champion- ship contest, althongh Fulton has been claiming the title since the re- tirement of Willard. It is true neither of the men in- volved is in United States service in any way. Both are married and in deferred classifications. Demps«y, however, left shipyard work to re- sume fighting a few months ago, and will not therefore hope to escape more than a hasty scrutiny of his pa- triotic intentions. And this point, be it noted, is an important one. For, as the Govern- or of Connecticut decides in the case of Dempsey-Fulton, so may all other executives be expected to rule in all cases where ring contestants are not in the service... _ Many Obstacles to Bout. | ihe though the Governor per- mits the contest, there are other obstacles to be overcome, not- ably the “work or fight’ order of Provost Marshal-General Crowder. This order, involving draft age men in non-essential occupations, is sup- posed to apply July 1, which wou:d bar the Danbury bout. Again, there is John the Barber, waiting around the corner to tie up Dempsey with an injunction. In short, it’s an even money prop- osition that the match will not take place, unless the men in the mean- time offer their services in some ca- pacity to the U. S. All interested in boxing wish they would do this, for it would test out the merits of the much-talked of Dempsey; and, no doubt, it would re- sult in a contest full of many fea- tures of interest, if not of scientific fighting. This would be a match of heavy blows with a knockout finish, beyond the shadow of a doubt. The winnec: would be justified in claiming the title if Willard declined a mecting. oo —_————— TODAYS TABLE: Standing of the Clubs. AMERICAN LEAGUE CLUB. Boston ..

T’S the fashion now to tell our. boxers to go to France, if they're looking for a fight. It’s an unkindly and undeserved slur, im a big ma- jority of cases. In proportion to the number of wwen involved, the ring probably has a higher percentage en- listed in the service than has any other form of sport—and this gots for all of them, even football, which gave so heaviiy of its splendid young men. The total number of boxers today is comparatively small. St. Louis, for example, could scarcely produce six professional boxers of mili- tary age who originated in this city —all of the rest have gone. Of boys actually raised here the writer can- not offhand think of more than that number On the other hand, some of the most noted are now in the army and navy. Some of them are: Leo the rugged welterweight; Leo - Witt, the lightweight who afterwards be- came champion of the Great. Lakes; Charley Crouse, n at the Naval Station; William Kabuss, who suc- ceeded to Witt’s Great Lakea_ title, dashing Jimmy Conzelman, whom Martin Delaney dubbed “the reatest athlete at the Great Lakes;” Howard Richardson, “Happy” Howard, “Bud” Clancy, Bobby and Everett Anderson, Tommy Belrose, Jack Doyle, Jack Rainey, Jimmy Turner and others. . . ¢ Best Men Already Gone. HIS list is greater numerically and in “class” than the boys re- maining; in fact, it is difficult for a boxing club manager to,get together enough local fighters to make an eve- ning’s card of four or five events. A majority of these boys volun- teered and dil not wait to be called in the draft—that’s the slacking rec- ord of the St. Louis boxers. Hjsewhere throughout the country it is the same. In the service in va- rious capacities are to be found the finest men in the game, champions and near-champions of all descrip- tions.

Corn is about all pianted: it is up'in southern parts of the State and some farmers are cultivating. Pastures anl meadows are looking fine. In fact, the general appearance of the country was never better. ~ Minnesota—Small grains are mak- ing satisfactory progress; weather is cool at times, but there are no re- ports of damage from frost;. there is plenty of moisture. In the corn coun- try the planting of that grain is near- ly all done. In some-places it is up and looks good. Farmers and grain dealers report very promising pros- pects, South Dakota—Weather is favor- able for small grains; good general rains fell during the week and there is now sufficient moisture to carry crops for a month or more. The con- dition of wheat is especially good. There is no report of frost damage. Corn is 60 per cent to,90 per cent planted and will all be fh by June 1. Pastures and hay lands never looked better. North Dakota—Weather is cool and favorable for wheat; good rains fell during the week; there ig ample moisture everywhere: no frost dam- age is reported; corn is 50 per cent planted and the work will be com- pleted about June &. Montana—Musselshell division: All seeding is completed except about 30 per cent of the flax; corn crops are growing nicely;, warmer weather is needed.

J NEW YORK, June 1.—The Evening ‘ost, in its copyrighted financial re- view today, says: “After showing at the opening the ““Sffect of the cable news from France, * the Stock Exchange paused in the Gownward movement of prices and lapsed into inactivity. Then, in the ‘final half hour, prices began to ad- Vance from the lower level, and up - 0 the closing there was a steady re- ose _Govery, which left the bulk of the | McKinley Darragh “Market not far from yesterday’s last | Meeme Co. ‘prices. _ “The movement moved tentatively “from the first. Overnight news from » the Buropean battle fields being what +4t was, and the possibility of impor- tant developments between now and *Monday-morning existing, as they so often have existed before on such oc- cagions, it was not surprising: that the stock market should have opened with declines. In many stocks these initial losses ranged from 1 to 1% per cent. he selling was not heavy, how- “ ever, and a rather prompt upward re- action ensued, in which a good part “of the early decline was retraced. _7This was followed by an irregular »fnd uncertain movement, with some -Fenewed declines, until the irregular, but general recovery began,. which was hardly checked until the close. Tnquestionably the feeling on the ‘Btock Exchange, as elsewhere in the ‘community which read this morning’s "newspaper dispatches, was one of per- _ plexity. Nowhere did the convic- etion relax that the initial successes @f the German drive would lead to nothing permanent; that eventual Yailure vf the German pater toking was as surely foredoomed as -peemed to be, a year ago. But tive | obscurity which continued to §S8ur- round such questions as the relative numerical strength of the two oppos- “Gng@ armies, the size and location of _ the allied reserves, and the strategic Plan of the commanding allied Gen- eral, made it peculiarly diffécult to _ draw conclusions. ». "Buch uncertainty is, to be sure, no mew incident of the war, it darkened ~Counsel. quite as completely before the Battle of the Marne, and the re- t German advance on Ypres. But «dt had its natural effect (as it dia ~mot on those occasions) upon a week- end market.” \° The bank statement schowed a de- @rease of $9,010,000 in surplus re- perves, which brought that item to the lowest figure since the opening of March.

Recent market actions of American Hide and Leather preferred stock raise questions regarding the present attitude and possible future course of the directors of-that company to- ward a dividend increase from 56 per cent to 7 per cent dividend designated on the preferred stock certificates. It is contended by one faction that, in view of the fact that outstanding bonds mature on Sept. 1, 1919, such a course would be inadvisable. On the other hand, very strong interests con- trolling a large amount of the pre- ferred argue that a company which is earning at the rate of $2,000,000 a year after deduction of all charges and whose net current assets are over $13,272,000 can afford to deduct from its net current Income $250,000 a yea to meet an additional 2 per cent and thus limit further accumulation of back dividends now amounting to 1l7 per cent, Particularly noteworthy in the re- port of Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Co. for the fiscal year ending March $1, 1918, is the remark- able growth in the value of unfilled orders for the corporation's regular products. At the close of the year t item aggregated $110,185,007, pared with $38,776,739 on the cor- responding date the preceding year, an increase of $70,408,268, or 177. The total value of unfilled orders, in- clusive of war business, reached $147,- 857,580, a new high record in the company's history. But the feature most encouraging to stockholders is the great expansion attained along normal lines, ag demonstrating the permanent nature of Westinghouse’s prosperity. The Union Bag and Paper Corpora- tion in the first three months of its fiscal. year ended April 30, earned at the annual rate of a little more than $20 a share on its $10,000,000 capital stock, Actual profits for the period were $518,945 after reduction of de- previation, charges and $90,000 for the quarter's taxes. This rate of profits is just a shade under that for the 1917 year, in which the company earned $21 a share for the stock. to ma butchers in the trade for a load or two pects are for a moderate run the first of next week, and some reaction in values.
