CHECK AT MARNE MAY BE PERMANENT Marines Tell Experiences Making Drive More Than Two Miles Deep Into the German Line Near the Marne. By the Associated Press. WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, June 17.—Reports of recent heavy German train move- ments from the direction of Metz toward the St. Mihiel salient has aroused discussion in the American expeditionary forces as to whether the enemy is planning an assault in the Woevre. From a tactical point of view the neighborhood of St. Mikiel with its sharp salient offers a logical place fer a German attack. A drive through St. Mihiel to the southwest, it is con- sidered, might have a triple object— the menacing of Bar le Duc, the outflanking of Verdun from the rear and the elimination of the sallent which has its apex at Verdun. For the moment at least, perhaps permanently, the allies have stopped the enemy at the Marne. Many en- gagements of a tactical nature may be expected even if the Germans de- cide it is useless to continue their efforts along the Marne and elect to hit the allied line at other places. The position of the railways ard the formation of the terrain northwest and north of Bar le Duc offer the Germans an opportunity. Of course, what the future holds for the Ameri- can forces around St. Mihfel is not known, but the salient there is being dlecussed as a possibility not to be lost sight of. Another place which is likely to see more fighting is the sector around Mont Didier, where Ameri- can troops recently captured Can- tigny. Another point at which Amer- ican troops are stationed is the ter- ritory around Chateau Thierry. It may be considered certain that what- ever future holds, the American forces. undoubtedly will participate in some hard fighting. MARINES HOLD ALL GROUND TAKEN IN HEROIC ADVANCE WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN PICARDY, June 8.—<As the re- -, sult of the two attacks by the Amer- icans against the enemy in the sec- ond battle northwest of Chateau Thierry, 300 prisoners were captured and the Americans extended their line over a front of about six miies to a depth of near two and one- half miles. While the losses of the Americans necessarily have been heavy, owing to the nature of the fighting, the German dead is piled three deep in places. A number of machine guns were added to the American booty. + “The German prisoners taken by the Americans, many of whom were mere boys, had only been in the line for two days. Some of them wore the white bands of the Prussian Guard. Private Carl B. Mills of Visalia, Cal., was in the first wave of Amer- icans to go over the top in the Veuilly Wood to smoke out the Ger- mans remaining there.

But this blow must fall before the tide in numbers turns. The situation is exactly that of the race between the U-boat and the shipbuilding program of the allies; once the new shipping produced each month ex- ceeds the destructions, the hope of success in this submarine campaign is over. Once the yield of American troops per month passes alike the allies loss and the German resources for replacing his own casualties the game is up, because the German will lack the numbers to enforce his lo- cal victories. He will be, like Na- poleon at Waterloo, when the Em- peror put in the Old Guard, after the Prussians had arrived, doomed to defeat because of inferiority of mum bers. Despite all our apprehensions to the contrary, the German resources in reserves are limited. Half a mil- lion casualties so far have made heavy drafts upon them and removed a material fraction of his picked troops. And up to the present mo- ment we are told authoritatively that America has been able to put 500,- 000 men into France, at least half of whom must now be fighting or on the line. These men are in all re- spects gave one better troops than Germany has or can expect to have during the war. They are young, the pick of our youth, physically the best now left in war-stricken Europe. This weakness lies in their lack of training, but under battle conditions this will soon largely be removed. Meantime superiority in the quality of troops must count for something against the superiority in training of the otherwise greatly inferior Ger- man troops. Five Months Are Left. There are left five months of cam- paigning in the present year. Before they are over we should have more than 1,000,000 troops in Europe and upward of 750,000 on the line. Be- fore this time is up Britain should have nearly 500,000 in the field as the result of new levies. These two contributions should largely make good any casualties the allies will suffer, conceding the first three blows have cost them and their foe 500,000 casualties apiece. Therefore, even though the German still main- tains a superiority of numbers on the west front, it is certain that, un- By FRANK H. SIMONTS. Author of “The Great war.” The pause in the German offen- sive in Champagne gives time to deal with one cireumstance in re- cent events which must be of ut- most interest to the people of the United States. We have been told’ in the present week by the French Premier that victory or defeat in the battle for civillaztion now de- pends upon America—and we are learning that a beginning has been made by us on the battlefield, a beginning of victory. The conditions of the last terrible German bid for military decision are now clear to the whole world. The German has succeeded in the fourth year of the world war in bringing upon the decisive western front a superiority of men, of guns and of methods. Thanks to the Russian collapse, he has been able to concentrate between Lille and Verdun practically the whole of his man-power, as he concentrated it in the months of August, September and October, 1914. ; Four years ago the German strat- egy was comprehended in the de- termination to dispose of France before Brfitain could aid much, or Russia, with her slower mobiliza- tion, who gravely threatened east Prussia. This strategy was parried at the Marne and completely block- ed at the Yser. Thereafter the Ger- man was compelled to transform his purposes and adopt a defensive in the west, while he disposed of Russia in the East. Although he temporarily reversed his proceedure during the Verdun offensive, the east kept him occupied until the close of last year, when he did suc- ceed in disposing of Russia and of Roumania.

Foch, and seek to ex- plain away the German faliure by ar- guing that the highest leadership never intended to go beyond the Marne at this time, meanwhile con- tinuing to exhort the public to have patience. Richard Gaedke of the Vorwaerts, the soberest German critic, says: “From now on Foch, with the ut- most haste and undeniable force of action,, will seek to bar further Ger- man advance at certain points. Foch's reserves have undeniably massed and stiffened the allied re- sistance. They seek to throw the German ranks back.” Gaedke adds significantly that the highest leadership eould never have purposed letting their initially suc- cessful blow to turn into a purpose- less, boundless storming ahead, but was satisfied with reaching the Marne sector in strength and sought only to make a defensive front here at least 25 kilometers long. “In addition to the inaction of the enemy’s forces, the ground gained also has strategic importance which will be made manifest later. “The battle continues!

OM TREASON Jeremiah O’Leary, American. Sinn Feiner, a Fugitive, and German “Baroness” in Number. DEATH PENALTY IS MAXIMUM IF GUILTY Indictments Charge Plot to Help Germany by Sabo- tage in America and to Fur- ther Rebellion in Ireland. By the Associated Presa, NEW YORK, June 8.—Five American citizens and two subjects of the German Empire, one of them a woman, are named as fellow conspirators in two indictments re- turned by a Federal Grand Jury here yesterday. Investigators de- clared their operations were the most sensational undertaken by German intelligence agents since the war began. The indictments alleged conspir- acy to commit treason and conspir- acy to commit espionage. The as- 1 sembling and transmission of in- formation relative to America's prosecution of the war; the destruc- tion of American piers, docks and troop transports with fire bombs; destruction of quick silver mines in this country to hamper the manu- facture of munitions; assisting Ger- many in landing an armed expedi- tion in Ireland; fomentation of a re- volt against British rule in Ireland; raising of funds in this country with which to finance these operations, and destruction of munition fac- tories and mines in Great Britain, are charged as ramifications of the intrigue. The wording of the indictments comprising 30 pages, intimates that the conspiracy may be of even broader scope. This is suggested by @ paragraph in the treason indict- ment which alleges that in July, las: year, one of the defendants sent a cablegram to Olten, Switzerland. Principals in Plot. The principhis named in the al- leged plots are: Jeremiah A. O'Leary, prominent American Sinn Feiner, now a fugu- tive from justice on charges of the espionage act violation for distri- bution of alleged anti-draft litera- ture in the magaizne Bull of which he was formerly editor. “Madame” Maria K. de Victorica, alias Baroness von Kretschman, a sSlonde-haired German woman of striking appearance and who is about 40 years old. Captain Here Describes Chateau Thierry Marines St. Louisan, Whose Company Was in Action, Says Marines Beat the “Blue Devils” at Their Own Games. A description of the type of men that comprise that portion of the Marine Corps whose exhibition of fighting about Chateau Thierry has amazed the allies and terrified the Germans was given yesterday to the Post-Dispatch by Capt. F. L. Mor- ris, 28 years old, of 5861 Plymouth avenue, who went to France with recognized in recent casualty lists the names of eight men of his own company. Capt. Morris is finishing up a six months’ sick leave and expects soon to take an examination that will permit him to return to his men. He, himself, is pointed out at the St. Louis recruiting station as the em- bodiment of the three cardinal max- ims of the marines— first to fight,” ‘service everywhere,” and ‘to be a marine officer, you must first be a marine private.“ Was at Vera Cruz. Capt. Morris was in the second boatload of marines that landed at Vera Cruz in 1914, has seen service in Hayti and Santo Domingo, has been attached to both the Atlantic and Pacific fleets and has covered the United States in details that have taken him to virtually all marine posts in the country. He enlisted six years ago and reached the grade of captain after the marines quieted Hayti. The Germans are not the first ene- my to be astounded by the-dash of hese marines. The same men wha are now fighting in France spread terror among the Santo Domingans by accomplishing what the natives thought was impossible, the capture of their sacred hill of La Trencherio. The Santo Domingans had thought it impregnable since their feat in re- pulsing a combined French and Spanish attack many years ago. Tho Marines took it casually in the course of a 90-mile hike to the in- terior, when they were compelled to fight every foot of the way. Fine Fighting Men. “I look upon those morines who are fighting with great glory to their name in France as the finest men physically that have ever opposed the Germans,” Morris said. “To be- gin with, they were in excellent trim when they first set foot in France. Then, after they got there, they were subjected to training that rounded them out to as close to perfection as men reach. They were sent on hikes at daybreak, carrying full equipment, and compelled to stay in hike till near sundown. That was repeated day after day. ‘When they were assigned billets. the quarters across the road from my company were occupied by Alpine chausseurs, those ‘Blue Devils’ of France who are almost worshiped by the French as the elite of all their armies.

FIGHT ON BADER REVEALED BY ACT Criminal Court Clerk Says He Paid His Deputy $2500 for Eight Years and Gets Ingratitude in Return. Henry C. Echterhoff, clerk of the criminal division of the Circuit Court, today made it known that he had “fired” his chief deputy, Henry Luecke, who is one of two candi- dates who have the backing of Henry L. (Hank) Weeke, Commissioner of Weights and Measures and Republi- can City Committeeman in the Bight- eenth Ward. Luecke filed as an opponent of Echterhoff for the Criminal Court clerkship Thursday. “T had been paying that man $2500 a year for eight years and then he comes out against me,” said Echterhoff to a Post-Dispatch re- porter. “When I asked Luecke why he filed in opposition to me he said Hank Weeke told him to do it. Wecke Forsakes Bader. Weeke also is supporting his son- in-law, Edward E. Butler, who filed as a candidate for the Republican nomination as Prosecuting Attorney in opposition to Howard Sidener, in- cumbent. Butler, it is said, was brought out in opposition to Sidener because the latter did not heed Weeke's request to use his influence in keeping As- sistant Prosecuting Attorney Ray Weinbrenner out of the race against Judge Calvin Miller for the Repub- lican nomination for Judge of the Court of Criminal Correction. In political circles it had been supposed that Weeke was friendly to Herman Bader, a Twenty-first Ward saloon keeper, who also has filed as candidate for the Criminal Court clerkship and there was some sur- prise when Weeke put Luecke in the field for that office. Echterhoff also lives in the Twenty-first Ward and is a candidate against Bader for nom- ination as Republican Committee- man of the ward. It has been a matter of discussion among members of the Republican City Committee in the last. few days that Weeke’s withdrawal of his sup- port of Bader, both for the clerk- ship and for committeeman, was due to the opposition Alderman Nathan Hall of the Twenty-first Ward to AUTO MAN HELD FOR FRAUD > WANTED IN TWO OTHER CITIES Everett E. West Identified as Having Given Worthless Check in Payment for Cars. Everett E. West of 4534 Wash- ington boulevard, held here on charges of buying automobiles and tires with worthless checks, is want- ed on similar charges in Kansas City and Louisville, according to in- formation received by the St. Louis police. When he was arrested several days ago it was on a charge of fraudulently obtaining tires from a Chicago concern and having them shipped to his automobile supply store at Grand avenue and Arsenal street. Yesterday he was identified as having bought automobiles from Art B. Mooney of 4547 Delmar boulevard and from the Riefling Auto Co., 2333 South Jefferson ave- nue and paid for them with checks alleged to be worthless. Letters received by West since his arrest and papers found on him, show that his father is a banker at Clinton, Mo., and his brother, Ar- thur J. West, is a business man at El Reno, Ok. One letter was from a young woman in Kansas City who wrote of his having broken an en- gagement to marry her. SECOND JEWISH CONTIGENT OFF FOR PALESTINE SERVICE Ten St. Louisans Enlisted by British, Depart for Training in Canada. St. Louis has dispatched its sec- ond contingent for the Jewish Le- gion being recruited by the British army for service in Palestine. The first contingent departed April 30, the second Thursday night, and a third will leave June 30. The men are trained in Canada.

CHICAGO, June 8.—Edward N. Hurley, chairman of the United States Shipping Board, last night, at the joint banquet of the Association of National Advertisers and the Au- dit Bureau of Circtlations, paid tributes to Charles M. Schwab, head of the Emergency Fleet Corporation. and the free press. Schwab was termed “the master shipbuilder of the world.” Of the press, Hurley, said: “The patriotic newspapers and magazines of this country are indispensable to vic- tory.”’ DELAY MAY GAUSE TRANSFER OF COAL ARBITRARY HEARING Time Used in Hearing Four -Witnesses May Result in Sessions in Washington, Says Examiner. NINE WITNESSES STILL TO TESTIFY Merchants’ Exchange Traffic Commissioner Says Charge Should Be Same on Both Sides of River. The hearing being conducted at Hotel Jefferson by Examiner Mack- ley of the Interstate Commerce Com- mission on the Chamber of Com- bridge arbitrary on coaR which was resumed today, may have to be com- pleted at Washington because of the long time already consumed in the examination of only four witnesses. An announcement to this effect was made by Mackley following an extra session of the hearing last night. The four witnesses who have testi- fied since the hearing began last Monday were presented by the Chamber of Commerce, and five more are yet to testify. Attorneys for the railroad defendants in the proceedings have about nine wit- nesses. Charles Rippin, traffic commis- sioner of the Merchants’ Exchange, testified yesterday that in his opin- ion the present rate of 52% cents on coal into East St. Louis was suf- ficiently compensatory to the rail- roads to cover delivery throughout the entire industrial district of St. Louis and East St. Louis. Equal Rates Ureed. Rippin explained his statement by referring to the present situation in East St. Louis, where coal is fre- quently hauled a distance of 15 miles north and south between Dupo and Granite City over the Terminal tracks for the 62%-cent charge, but that the extra 20-cent arbitrary is imposed on all coal moving west over the bridges, even though the destina- tion be the western terminus of the bridge, slightly more than a mile from the East Side switching district. “Put this whole community on a parity by giving both Bides of the river equal rates on all inbound and outbound traffic,“ Rippin said. “The river, in my opinion, does not divide the industrial district of St. Louis any more than would a street be- tween St. Louis and East St. Louis.

The witness cited 246 instances where equal rates applied on com- modities to both sides of the river and in 112 of these the revenue per car earned by the railroads was-tess than $26, the revenue earned per car on coal into St. Louis. This, he said, would of itself justify equal rates being applied to coal traffic. Rippin was cross-examined. at length by attorneys for the railroads and the East St. Louis Chamber of Commerce which is opposing the arbitrary ‘removal. His statement regarding a 52% cent rate being suf- ficient for the entire district, was repeatedly challenged and he was asked what he would charge, if he were a railroad rate man, for mov- ing coal into St. Louis. Rippin would not express his opmion as to an exact figure. „I shall not forget that landing in France. We came into the river I shall not namie just at daybreak. Yet at that hour the banks of the river were black with people. Every Frenchman within walking or horse- cart distance of the town was there to see us coming.

Schmoll said he regarded the filing of Luecke for the Criminal Court Clerkship as very significant.” “Personally,” he said, I am for Bader. He is a good fellow and would make an acceptable official.

Col- lected by a friend, with some crit- ical chapters by Vivian Carter, editor of The Bystander.” Interest- ing sketches about the Great War humorist and cartoonist. TARZAN AND THE JEWELS OF OPAR. IK all of the other Tarzan stories by Edgar Rice Bur- rough, “Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar“ overflows with the thrilling adventures of the Ape Man in the .jungies of Africa. The book might be improved with a preface giving a brief history of “the dream man we would most like to be.” Tarzan (though this is not told in “Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar’’) was born in the jungle of gentle English par- entage and left an orphan. He was found by a she ape who carried him off and reared him. He learned the ape language while living among them, became a giant of strength, able to slay, single handed, the great beasts of the forest, and to leap from tree top to tree top, hour after hour, in hig travels through the jungle. Later he went to England, sat in the House of Lords and became a mental power among his fellow men. In this latest book he appears in the story at first as John Clayton, Lord Greystoke, living with his wife on his vast African estate. By bad investments Lady Greystoke has lost @ great deal of money and her hus- band decides to go to the rich city of Opar, presided over by the High La, where he knows there is fabulous wealth in virgin gold in- gots hidden in a cave, the existence of which is not known to even La or her subjects. Lord Greystoke goes back to the lee of an Ape Man and sets out with his blacks for the wealth of Opar, where he had been before as Tarzan, and he is secretly followed by Albert Werper, a former Belgian Lieuten- ant, who, having fled after killing a superior officer, overheard the plan for getting the gold at Opar. Wer- “per conceals himself in the cave of gold and watches the blacks carry away the precious metal. An earth- quake disiodges stones at the en- trance to the cave, making prisoners of both him and Tarzan. One rock crashed Lcrd Greystoke on the head and he is supposed to be dead. Wer- Fen leaving him for such, makes his non interrupts by attacking all those who cannot get out of his way. nts over the prostrate body of she was about to offer satrifice. | flerce the Ape Man Kills the lion | @sompes unseratched.

Watt & Co.) — A tale of big deeds this. The writer, an Australi- an, participated at Gallipoli, saw the trenches of France, flew over them as an aerial observer, commanded a tank and finally wound up his mili- tary career by a feat in patrol duty that won him the Military Cross at the hands of King George—a feat that cost him his arm and chance for further distinction. Outside his blood-red recital, his observation on the Turk is most interesting. Capt. Falion found the “butcher of the East” a chivalrous foe, a gentleman whose word never was doubted by the Anzacs—altogether far more honorable than the German. whose ery of “kamerad” the Anzacs learned to answer with the bayonet. The Big Fight” is a book for those who think that a war book should never falter in action. “A CRUSADER OF FRANCE,” Capt. Ferdinand Belmont (E. P Dutton & Co.). — No tale of big deeds this, yet a volume that asks for itself survival in the deluge of war books. To quote Hen- ri Bordeaux s introduction—‘“He will be placed on that shelf in one’s li- brary which is reserved for books one returns to when one has re- ceived some deep wound from life and one seeks a discreet confidant.” The book demands place, not as 4 chronicle, but as a light upon the psychological effect of trenches upon men such as are met upon Olive street every day. It is written in a spirit of sadness, of religious fervor, of feeling for nature and in philo- sophical contemplation. It is the story of the war experiences of a French docter who chose to fight rather than minister to fighters. It is never a story of heroic deeds. Even the supreme moment of his career which just preceded his death—his decoration with the cross of the Le- gion of Honor—could not turn his pen from contemplation of the maj- esty of the forest in which the cere- mony took place. “CAPTURED,” by Lieut. J. Har- vey Douglas (George H. Doran Co.) —A recital of the events that trans- pired in a German prison camp at Cologne during the 16 months’ in- carceration of a Canadian officer. The description of the events lead- ing up to his capture is a stirring bi". of that vigorous fighting that ensues wherever Canadians attack. The book is a further indictment of the inhumanity of German warfare. Prisoners, aside from receiving no consideration as to the kind of food meagerly dished up to them, were victims of the unconcern of German surgeons as to their ultimate recov- ery. The neglect described by Lieut. Douglas in specific cases is further stimulus to Americans to end the war as soon as possible. “GLORIOUS EXPLOITS OF THE AIR.“ by Edgar C. Middleton (D. Appleton & Co.) — War correspond- ents seize every opportunity to write of exploits of the air, that branch of service that particularly lends it- self to heroic and spectacular effort and to which those at home turn for their greatest war thrills. Yet Mid- dleton, a sub-lieutenant of British flyers, has had access to records that by respondents, and his tale transcends all but the most extraordinary re- citals in the daily press. There are incidents of the destruction of sub- marines by seaplanes and the tale of two men living for five days awash on a British seaplane that had fallen into the North Sea. There is an- other of a flier sent to get informa- tion. Upon his return his com- rades lifted his lifeless body from the machine, but upon a pad was written the information he had been sent to get. There ts another of the flier who always took his dog aloft with him, and many more of feats that would have been discredited ut- terly in other days than these through which we are living. “FIGHTING STARVATION IN BELGIUM,” by Vernon Kellogg (Doubleday, Page & Co.)—This book by a member of the Commission for Belgian Relief“ is the source of many of the tales recently told in St. Louis by the author's wife. It is no hec- tic indictment of the Germans, but a cold, unimpassioned recital of facts with particular attention to accuracy that in the end stir fighting blood more than vituperation or adjec- tives could possibly do. This book must have place in the final recapit- ulation of the story of Belgium. “FRONT LINES,” by Boyd Cable (E. P. Dutton & Co.)—A collection of short stories in fiction form, but which carry the conviction that many have their foundation in actual inci- dents. The author, a war correspond- ent, says that he has written it in the hope that it will keep those at home at their sledge hammers and those to whom it chances to come in high courage to return to the battle. The style is vigorous and one or two of the stories savor strongly of the Kipling method. “OVER HERE,” by Hector Mo- Quarrie, Lieutenant, Royal Flying Corps (J. B. Lippincott)—This book is by a young British Lieutenant un- fitted for further active service and now assigned to duty as munitions inspector in a Pennsylvania plant. His book is comment on the people, institutions and country he has come in contact with. It is full of friend- ly criticism of things and people and of disgusted ridicule of some of his countrymen who cannot understand America. There ig much humor in the book, a particularly good chap- ter being on the American picture show and another on dance night at a country club. Clay Company Not Tapping Park Land. George Hill, Chief Inspector of Mines, and R. C. Detchmendy, depu- ty inspector, have reported to Gov. Gardner that the Highlands Fire Clay Co. is not operating a clay mine under Forest Park. Their survey of the company’s properties, Chief In- spector Hill says, showed that the company’s. Operations are confined wholly to its own land adjoining For- est Park. * > awe 2 — — — i 3 eae) “THE MAN FROM BAR-20.” > pei ata adm pga hanes tion On too large and too puzzling a scale; Where the mind can’t avoid the distraction. Of intrusions that ruin the tale? Then let us withdraw from that ruction A little to turu to our West, And there feel the charm and seduction Of war as a personal test. A fig for the fire of battallions, And promiscuous shooting around; Give us back the cow-stealing rap- scallions And the old individual ground! While our sympathies tarry with Pershing, And our loyalty’s just what it was, We prefer to read something re- hearsing What Hopalong Cassidy docs! No Homer, we grant you, shall warble The song of these cowpunchers' fame; Nor mounments fashioned in mar- ble Shall perpetuate Hopalong's name. But the droliness and much of the laughter Of this life and likely the next, Shall derive from our thinking hercafter Of this highly-colorful text. In old Sante Fe stands a pillar Of simple and homely design To that unrivaled Indian killer Whose feats thrilled your boy- hood and mine. It stands for Kit Carson there primely, Bat in a big and more beautiful way It stands there forever sublimely For an old and adventurous day.

The Kaiser, we hear, lately caught it When his soldiers fell into our clutch, But he won’t understand where we got it Till he reads the Bar-20 in Dutch. “The Man From Bar-20,” by Clar- ence E. Mulford. (A. C. McClurg & Co., Chicago.) — — POOR TERRY! 66 HE Toll of the Road,” by T Marion Hill, is a lively and cleverly written story of a girl's life in a theatrical troupe. The transformation of Gert Hall, small- town girl, into Gertrude Hallam, ac- tress, begins after a passing strang- er sees her drying her hair in the front yard—a practice not unknown in small towns. He informs her that she has just the face and hair needed for the role of the Princess in his Egyptian play, and he persuades her, over the remonstrances of Terry, her fiance, to go to New. York and begin rehearsing. The rest of the story is not so im- probable as this introductory clir- cumstance. The story is one of the road, rather than of the stage or of acting, and the other characters do a good deal to merit the severe criti- cisms which Terry, the small-town fiance, later heaps on them. But Gertrude sees their good side, and she eventually becomes unable to see anything attractive in Terry anf the little house he has built for her. And the story ends just like that, with nothing apparently certain ex- cept that Terry will have to find someone else to share the new house with him. (Appleton.) UNDER FOUR FLAGS FOR FRANCE. 5 HE lack of perspecti®e in re- spect to the great war has prompted George Clark Mus- grave to publish, at the suggestion of a United States army officer in Europe, a history of the war up to the entry of the United States, and he has succeeded very well in sup- plying that perspective. As might be supposed, the perspective of the first stage is more satisfactory than of the later phases. His account of the German drive which was stopped at the Marne is clear and concise. His description of some of the later cam- paigns is made confusing to a casual reader by the extent to which he goes into details, the common failing of historical writers. The author’s purpose, as he sum- marizes it, is to give a concise story of the war, tinged with human inter- est and so arranged that its ramifi- cations are reduced to a straightfor- ward account of the achievements of France and her allies under the mas- ter hand of Joffre.

Sir Johnston Forbes-Robertson, who won a full measure of fame on the speaking stage, will be seen on the screen for the week beginning tomorrow at the New Grand Central Theater in one of the greatest of his stage successes, “The Passing of the Third Floor Back.” part of a mysterious lodger, known only as “the stranger,” who brings his helpful and uplifting personality into a somber boarding house which is peopled with men and women whose struggle for existence has warped their natures and blinded them to the better and higher things of life. ‘Through his personality and man- ifestations of his character the stranger slowly, but surely, works magic changes in these boarding house dwellers. Their very natures are transformed and their relations with each other are brought to a level where they find pleasure in helping each other. Sunshine chases gloom from the dingy boarding house and it fairly seems to glow with the light of the “stranger’s’” personality, and he leaves it so when he departs, fol- lowed by the benedictions of those who remain behind. The art of Forbes-Rebertson is beyond praise. The picture is released by the new- ly formed First National Exhibitors’ Circuit and is the first to be shown here under that imprint. Jewel Carmen is to be featured in a film version of Governeur Morris’ story, “You Can’t Get Away With It.” A POSTMARK ALBUM.

Two new Triangle releases, a Key- stone comedy and a news weekly, will be on the bill at the Kings The- ater for the week beginning tomor- row. Roy Stewart is featured in The Red-Haired Cupid,” a Western story of unusual plot, in which a cowboy assumes the role of a matchmaker. It is a “Red Saunders” story, full of action and punch. The scene is laid on a Western ranch and there is an abundance of the kind of atmosphere which in- cludes bucking bronchos and wild mountain scenery. Eastern reviews have said the production is excel- lent, the story interesting and the photography some of the best that has been seen lately.” The other Triangle picture on the bill is “The Man Who Woke Up.” In this Pauline Stark has a leading part. It tells of a Southern Colonel and ed- itor who try to ignore the march of progress, but is forced to come to a realization of modern things when love flies in at the window.

A terrific fight in a gambling resort is one of the thrillers. On the bill also will be “Wild Women and Tame Lions,” a Fox comedy.

The aggregate capital stock of the companies mentioned in this connec- tion is said to be nearly $100,000,- 000. National reports show that the alr- domes have been hard hit by the daylight-saving regulation and that fully two-thirds of the number in operation last year are still dark. Closed theaters, however, are gain- ing attendance in proportion and the PHOTO PLAY THEATERS __ total summer receipts are expected to exceed those of last summer. The new sequel to “Tarzan of the Apes” is nearing completion.

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH SATURDAY wiht n § 8, 1918. FARE ORDER NEXT WEEK ore Board Is Without Authority to In- crease Charge. Associate City Counselor Hamil- ton has announced that an appeal From the order. of the State Public Service Commission granting ~ United Railways a 6-cent the fare, "a «would be filed by the city of St. | Louis in the Cole County Circuit _ Court next week. The increase will be attacked on : a two grounds—that the commission is without authority to set aside the 5-cent fare fixed by contract or- Adinance, and that the 6-cent fare al- lowed is excessive. Hamilton asserts that the decision of the Supreme Court upholding the commission’s action in abrogating rates for water under a contract between the city of Sedalia and a Private corporation, has no bearing on the issue between St. Louis and the United Railways. The constitutional provision giv- ing cities and towns the right to iin- pose conditions on the operation of street railways within their limits Hamilton said. This constitutional provision was invoked in the suit brought by Sedalia to set aside the State commission's order increasing water rates in that city. Earth's Great Jubilee.

FAVORS LIMITING SENATE DEBATE Congratulated by Democratic Member at Conclusion — 100 CHURCHES IN SOISSONS HAVE BEEN RAZED BY GERMANS Bishop of Soissons Tells How Fiyers Turned Machine Guns on Lines of Refugees. By the Associated Press. PARIS, June 8.—The Bishop of Soissons, who is now in Paris, today described the havoc wrought in the Bishopric of Soissons during the re- 2 cent offensive of the Germans. He said 100 churches had been razed by the Germans and that at least 100 others had been pillaged and partial- ly demolished. The famous cathe- dral in Soissons suffered severely. The Bishop added that the Ger- mans knew neither faith nor law; they knew nothing but war and pil- lage. They were methodically strip- ping and carrying away everything, he said. The Bishop also asserted that women, children and old men had been brutally murdered by German aviators, who flew over and with their machine guns fired upon long lines of refugees on country roads.

WASHINGTON, June 8.—Senator X. P. Wilfley of Missouri made his first speech in the Senate yesterday in support of the Underwood resolu- tion to limit debate in the Senate. However, his speech mainly was a declaration for support of the ad- ministration and the keynote of the address was this paragraph: “The people of the nation have confidence in Woodrow Wilson and they are looking to Congress, and it is the duty of Congress, to which the people will hold us to strict ac- count, to give him all the co-opera- tion and support within our power and to enable him to meet and carry the responsibility which Congress, with the full approval of the people, has imposed upon him.” Senator Wilfley had the close at- tention of the Senators present, and, when he had concluded, he was con- gratulated by members of the Dem- ocratic side. Speaker Clark and Representatives Igoe and Hensley, when informed that Senator Wilfley was to make his first speech, joined the Democratic Senators and re- mained throughout the speech. Senator Wilfley declared through- out his speech, of considerable length, that the people of the nation were demanding complete support for the President. He insisted that sincere and constructive criticism would not be disapproved, but, that the people were not ready to permit the Senate to become a “sounding board” for disgruntled critics. Favors Restricted Debate. Declaring that in normal times he favored free and unrestricted debate in the Senate, Senator Wilfley said at this time he favored the restric- tion of debate and insisted that every proposal to be considered should be considered only with the one ques- tion of assisting the successful prose- cution of the war. Because of the necessity for speedy action on all matters pertaining to the war, he said, it must not be permitted that any individual or group of individ- uals should delay action. „The demands of our conscience and of the people compel us to clear our decks for the speedy perform- ance of the duty that may from time to time be upon us,” said the Sen- ator. “The people are ready to make the supreme sacrifice. They know we are launched upon a desperate un- dertaking and they are desperately in earnest to see it through to a suc- cessful conclusion. They repose the greatest confidence in the chief ex- ecutive of the nation and they de- mand that he beleft unhampered and uninterrupted in this great work. It is incumbent upon us that we turn our attention from the function of checking other branches of the Gov- ernment and direct our full power to effective support of the work which is imposed upon the executive de- partment.” Insisting that no man is infallible and that mistakes must be made, he said Congress must realize that no man or group of men could avoid making mistakes. “I speak with confidence that none will question or contradict the asser- tion that the President has as strong an interest and as deep a desire to promote the prosecution of the war as any member of this body,“ he said. “Our acts must be in response to his requests and suggestions. His acts give assurance that he is calling upon every available resource that is within his power of command.” Big Men His Counselors. Senator Wilfley said the President had called to his assistance his pres- idential opponent, and the greatest business men of the country. The Senator said the people know of these things, and are impatient of anything which will not speed up war activities. “The people do not want the Gov- ernment assailed—they want it sup- ported,” said Senator Wilfley. Senator Wilfley asserted that, de- spite that we have munitions and money and men in an unlimited quantity, Germany will be defeated by the perfecting of an organization to combat with the perfect and high- ly developed technical and scientific war machine which Germany has erected. “There is no merit in supporting the President by opposing what he tries to do or attempting to show that it should have been done in some other way, or by belittling and denouncing those upon whom he re- lies in conducting the war.“ asserted the Senator. “The power given to the President by Congress to carry on this war must not be impaired by delay in giving to the President all the serources and authority that may be needed at any time in carrying out executive plans. This war must be conducted and directed by the ex- ecutive and not by parliamentary au- thority.” The Kind You — . Bo ht — borne gna- ture of — H.

Performance lasts an hour and you get it for half a dime!” The crowd on the busy street stopped to see what was “going all the time,” just as the crowd stops to look at a dog fight or a drugk- en man.

EDWIN.—For ants see Answers, June 3. Luminous colors for artists’ use are prepared by using pure East Indian poppy oil, in the same quan- tity „instead of the varnish, and tak- ing particular pains to grind the materials as fine as possible. For luminous oil color paints equal quantities of pure linseed oll are used in the place of the varnish. The linseed oil must be cold pressed and thickened by heat. The lumin- ous paints can also be used as wax colors for painting on glass and similar objects by adding, instead of varnish, 10 per cent more of Jap- anese wax and 4 the quantity of The wax used for painting on porcelain, and are then carefully burned without access of air. Paintings of this kind can also be treated with water glass. J. J. J—Where it is necessary to fill small crack or leak in difficult place, or if soldering cannot be used as means of closing the opening, an amalgam composed as follows may be used with good results: Melt to- gether 30 parts zinc and 20 parts tin, thun granulate the mass. A good method is to use filings from the metal combination; however, the granulation can be done by pouring the melted metal through a strorg stream of water issuing from the nozzle of a hose. These are well kneaded with mercury until the amalgam, like a dough, is formed. The excess mercury is squeezed out. and the plastic mass forced into the hole and given time to harden. When hard, it can be filed the same as the metal about it. Because of the hardening action, only enough of the amalgam should be mixed for the work at hand. sek ey ig + Steady HELP WANTED—MEN, BOYS — — . ....—.———————————————————————r—7r—V&v7— factory work: $2.75 per day.

Sl Py q 4 e 7 5 * * nr 1 a * + R A By em eo Details of the Ruthless Slaughter of Unoffending Citizens in Their Homes and in the Streets, as the American Minister Learned Them at First Hand. By BRAND — „ © - ** * Horror of Louvain was on us like a nightmare, all the more terrible because it was vague, undefined, a kind of nameless, formless thing, that sent a shudder through Brus- sels, as perhaps it was intended to do, where The city was the like might happen at any hour. filled with foreboding and vague apprehension; miserable refugees, with dumb expressions and eyes that had looked on horror, came plodding wearily into town. Late in the afternoon it was reported at the legation that at Louvain the Germans at that that the, town was burning, and the tragedy complete; | moment were massacring the people; hundreds had been shot down; the cathedral, the library, the Hotel de Ville, were in flames, Forty priests, some of them from the American College, had been seized as hostages, and were even then being driven in carts along the road to Brussels. What was to be done? As I was thinking Villalobar came, he, too, with that face of hor- yor; there were Spanish priests in that band of hostages as well. We decided to go at once to Gen. von Luttwitz. Villalobar's car was at the door and we drove away. It was 7 o'clock. There was a heavy guard at the Ministries and the sentinels were ugly; one of them impudently mounted on the footboard of the car. At the Foreign Office we were told that we could not see the General. We insisted on send- ing in our cards, and sat there waiting, sensible, in the movements of the officers who were con- stantly passing through, of an evil atmosphere. The windows were open and the Marquis and I stood there looking out into the little place be- fore the Palais de la Nation. There were groups of gray soldiers on the steps of the Palace, their arms stacked on the pavement. Two ugly ma- chine guns were mounted to sweep the Park. 1 45 Whitlock’s Protests J a a “They vomit death!“ satd Villalobar, as though speaking to himself. We turned away from the window. Finally Maj. Hans von Herwaerts, who WHITLOCK, United States Minister to Belgium. in persons safe in luxurious drawing rooms thou- sands of miles away. None of them, so far as I could observe or learn, even acted in the tragic manner; there were no heroics and no histrionics; they did not demean themselves as do people in the cine- ma or in the romanticistic novels. I have read somewhere a psychological explanation of this phenomenon by the late Prof. Willam James. who observed it and made interesting notes of it n had once been military attache at the German Embassy at Washington, and was then on the staff of Gen. von Luttwitz, wearing a great pair of tortoise shell reading glasses, came out to receive us. To him I made my protests about the treat- ment of the priests and the professors of the Amerjcan College, and, indeed, such treatment of priests in general, and Villalobar made similar répresentations on behalf of the Spanish priests. Maj. von Herwaertz understood, rushed into the room, where behind the closed door was Gen. von Luttwitz.. He came out and assured us that the release of the priests would be immediately or- dered, and While he was telling us this two tall dark figures, priests, swept out in their long black soutanes.. Then we all went with the General into his—or- into Davignon’s—room. He was se- rious, and instantly instructed Maj. von Her- waertz to give orders liberating the priests; told him to give them by telegraph, by telephone, and in addition to send out mounted erderltes to meet the columns on the road, and to liberate th priests at once. There was no more that we could do, but, we sat and talked awhile with the General. He told us that the Germans everywhere were victorious and that they would soon be in Paris. And he said that Burgomaster Max had received an offi- cial telegram from the French Government say- ing that it could give Belgium no further aid on the battlefield. He spoke of M. Max with admi- ration. - “A bravé man,” he said, “and patriotic. I ad- mire him; he stands up and doesn't crawl when he comes into my presence.” I did not know why anybody should do that. - Helpless Refugees When I returned to the lfegation I found Mme. Poulet, the wife of the Belgian Mintster of Aris and Sciences, with two of her children—little girls with golden curls, their upturned faces filled with that distress and wonder and despair that children know when their parents weep, for then the world tumbles in ruins about them, and there is nowhere to go. ; The world seemed very much like that, that evening, to all of us, who were as helpless as chil- dren. Mme. Poulet's home was in Louvain, and that afternoon her mother, a woman 80 years old, had walked all the way from the doomed city, a distance of 24 kilometers. She told me something of the awful tale as she knew tt—but it’ ed better, ultimately, to talk of the two e girls standing by, and as she did so she them into her arms, folding them in an yee like that of countless other mothers in | m that night, and finally led them away, their ourls bobbing, down the long corridor, : somewhat comtorted, I could hope, for there was strange miracle in those days!—a smile. All the next day the panic-stricken people continued to pour into the city from Louvain, with their tales of horror. The mind was stunned; the event was too enormous to be grasped; it séemed to have the inevitable and fatalistic qual- ity of some great catastrophe in nature; it had happened, that was all; it was not be escaped, | was there before one, in the world, like an earthquake or a conflagration or a tornado, all which in tts effect it so much resembled. Those who came told their stories calmly, sit- re * blank, impassive faces; only in that had looked on those horrors the it all was still reflected. One was sk by their lack of rancor; they seemed to suffered too deeply for that. ees 5 afterwards, I was struck by the lack passton displayed by all those who had so ter- bly suffered. I seldom heard any of them ex- mw hatred of the Germans or any desire for They never even spoke of them as and were by no means in euch a fury CO Oe at the time of the San Francisco earthquake. In moments of great danger, of great strain and tragedy, people are simple and natural; they do not act, in the theatrical sense of the word. It was thus with the young woman who, on that Tuesday, about 8 o'clock in the evening, when German soldiers suddenly beat on the door of her home in Louvain, and her father and brother ran to open it, heard shots and had not seen her father or brother since. She took her 8-weeks-old baby in her arms and, climbing the garden wall, found refuge in the home of a friend for a night and a day, while on all sides the houses were in flames, and finally, carrying her child, she dodged from street to street, hold- ing up one arm and waving a white handker- chfef and so reached the village of Loefdael, and from there, Tervueren and at last Brussels. It was so with the widow of 60; German sol- dfers at 5 o'clock on Wednesday morning turned her and her niece, a young woman about to be- come a mother, out of her house and drove them from place to place, half clad—the guardhouse at St. Martin’s barracks, the Place du Peuple, the Hotel de Ville, and finally to the Infantry Bar- racks, rue de Tirlemont. They were forced every now and then to kneel on the ground and to raise their arms above their heads, while the Germans pressed the muzzles of guns against their breasts or kicked them or struck them; then, holding them as prisoners in the barracks until Thursday, allowed them to re- turn home to find their house burned to the ground and all that the widow had in the world— shares of the value of 135,000 francs contained in an iron box in a valise; her jewelry and dia- monds in a little hand satchel, which she had buried in the garden—gone. It was so with a young Louvain priest I knew, one of the group in that tragic scene there in the square before the railway station. He had been seized with others, made to march in front of the troops, kicked and cuffed, and.spat upon, struck with the butts of guns; his hands were tied be- hind him with barbed wire and there at the Place de la Station he was forced to remain standing, not even allowed to lean against the wall; and this for hours, with repeated insults and per- sonal outrage, while his townsmen one by one were led olit and shot, there at the side of the square, near the house of Mr. Hemaide.” 5 | The Old Priest’s Tale | I might go on indefinitely, recounting expe- riences such as these; they would fill. a volume. But of all those I heard, of all those that were written out for me, there d one that remains more vivid in my memory than all the rest. There was another priest, an old white-haired ecclesiastic, a scholar and an educator, whom one addressed at Monsigneur. He was one of those priests whose liberation I had secured on Thurs- day night, and in the morning he came with two others to thank me. He had left Louvam when the exodus was ordered on Thursday; be had gone to Ter- vueren with other priests; there he had witnessed the murder of Father Duplerreux, he had been put into a filthy cart, as a hostage, and sent into Brussels; and seen thus, the story had been brought to our legation—“et vous m'aves sauve la vie!” (And you have saved my life.“) Se em ee ° SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 8, 1018. — ——— tr —ͤ rm ee — 8 3 8 Roy vo ~~ — — — ZL “INTO CAPTIVITY.”- SCENE IN A BELGIAN TOWN — — u— — LOOKING DOWN ON THE RUINS OF THE UN/IVERS/ AND LIBRARY OF LOUVAINAFTER THE BOMBARDMENT He sat there at my table, a striking figure, the delicate face, dignified and sad, the silver hair, the long black soutane and the scarlet sash; in his white hand a well-worn breviary. There were two other figures, dark, grave and solemn— two Jesuit fathers who had come with him, sit- ting by in silent sympathy. They had come to express their gratitude. Monseigneur described the events. He told it calmly, logically, connectedly, his trained mind unfolding the events in orderly sequence; the sound of ffring from Herent, the sudden uprising of the German soldiers, the murder, the lust, the loot, the fires, the pillage, the evacuation and the destruction of the city, and all that. | Glimpses of Tragedy The home of his father had been burned and the home of his brother; his friends and his col- leagues had been murdered before his eyes, and their bodies thrown into a cistern; long limes of his townspeople, confined in the railway station, had been taken out and shot down; the church of St. Peter's was destroyed, the Hotel de Ville, the finest example of late Gothic extant, was doomed, and the Halles of the university had been con- sumed; and he had told it all calmly. But there in the Halles of the University was the library; its hundreds of thousands of volumes, its rare and ancient manuscripts, its unique col- lection of incunabula, had all been burned, delib- erately, to the last scrap. Monseigneur had reached this point in his recital, he had begun to pronounce the word “bibliotheque’’—he had said, la biblio,” and he stopped suddenly, and bit his quivering lip. “La bib” he went on— and then, spreading hts arms on the table before him, he bowed his head upon them and wept aloud. : We sat there silent, the two priests and I-—le coeur gros, as the French say—and our own eyes something more than moist. They did not remain long after that, and when they went away Monseigneur forgot his breviary and left it lying on my table. And I let R lie there. HE story of Louvain will not be fully writ- T ten in all its details of individual suffer- ing until liberty comes to the earth again: those who know it best are still “inside”—as the Belgians call their prison. And people “inside” do no lightly give testimony or write their ex- periences and impressions, «ven in private diaries. Father Duplerreux learned that. But from time to time a corner of the dark veil was li?ted, and we had glimpses of the vast and ap- palling tragedy that was being enacted by those siriister figures in lurid gray, with torch and ax and spn, there amid the rolling smoke and the infe glare. world already knows the story in its .- sentials; the truth, with its divine persistence, is never deterred by prisons, or bayonets, or even by electrified barbed wire at a frontier. Strange that autocracy never learns! So the story that I could construct out of all those impressions, those glimpses and those conversations with all sorts of people, the rich and the poor, the high and the lowly, the haute bourgeoisie, men of note in the community, educators, lawyers, priests, offi- cials, men of serious and orderly minds, accus- tomed to weighing evidence, will not be new; it wili resume what already in the main has been told. The Belgians were in retreat, falling back on Antwerp, but fighting as they went, contesting, with Belgian stubbornness, every step of the way. Th: German. army had entered Louvain in force on the afternoon of Wednesday, the 15th of August. Hostages were-seized among the notables of the city, the Bourgmestre, the rector of the university, the Provincial Councillor, Judges, Al- dermen, etc. An affiche was at once placarded announcing tha: in case a single arm be found, no matter in what house, or any act of hostility be com- mitted on our troops, our transports, our tele- graph lines, our railways, or if anyone harbors franctireurs, the culpable and the hostages who are arrested in each village will be shot without pity. Besides, all the inhabitants of the village in question will be driven out; the villages and even cities will be demolished and burned. If this happens on the route of communication be- tween two villages the same methods will be ap- pied to the inhabitants of both.” This sinister posttr bore no date, no signature. no writer’s name; it had evidently been printed in Germany in advance; forming part of the equipment of the army, as a circus carries bilis ard bill posters. It seemed like a gratuitous menace, since all the revolvers ahd fowling pieces had been turned in at the Hotel de Ville in response to the Burgomaster’s appeal. German Felons Released The troops, of course, were quartered on the inhabitants, with the usual incidents; three sol- diers raped a girl of 15, and—-what happened generally all over Belgium whenever German sol- diers were quartered in houses of delicacy or re- fivement, wardrobes were broken, drawers were empticd out on the floor, the .dainty lingerie solled with filth in an unspeakable manner. The cash boxes of at least two banks were rifled, though it is said this: money was later restored by the German authorities.

On Monday, the 24th, the German wounded had been evacuated from Louvain, and that evening there were a few desultory shots in the Chaussee de Tirlęemont and the rue de la Station, the route along which Von Klucks' army day after day was pushing on toward the West. Hav, ever, things went well enough for the time, and the Louvainist could make a little moue, shrug his shoulders, and observe C'est la guerre!“ (“This is war!“) The Slaughter Starts T HEN came Tuesday, the 25th, a sinister date in the annals of Louvain. An order was ‘ issued commanding all the inhabitants to be indoors at 8 o’clock in the evening, and that all cafes and public places be closed; doors were to be left unlocked and lights were to burn in the windows. All that afternoon heavy detach- ments of troops were arriving at the railway station. They were quartered on the inhabitants: the hotels about the Place de la Station were filled with officers. Late-in the afternoon the sound of cannonading was heard from the west, in the village of Herent. That afternoon the Belgian army made a sortie from the defenses of Antwerp; there had been 1 sharp fight at Milens and the Belgians had had the better of it, driving the Germans out of Ma- lines and back along the road toward Louvain. It was the noise of this battle [that Louvain heard that afternoon from the direction of He; rent, At 7 o’clock that evening Herent was in flames. The Germans retiring on Louvain had reached the Porte de Malines; night was falling and Ger- man reinforcements, just then leaving Louvain, met them, and there in the twilight the two par- ties, each mistaking the other for Belgians, opened fire. There was instant panic, the usual cry, Man hat geschossen!“ Riderless horses and terror-stricken soldiers streamed into the town and then, and in that manner, the awful tragedy began. The officers of the staff were dining and those who know something of the Belgian cuisine—before the war -and of the place their famous old Burgundy holds in the estimation of the people, can imag- ‘ine what a festin de geants there would be when such trenchermen as those German officers sat themselves down at table in those restaurants. They were digesting their dinner when the alarm came to them; and Louvain was doomed. There was a woman whose husband was away in the Belgiann army. -For a week two German officers had been quartered in her house.

JOSEPH PULITZER. April 10, 1907. LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE ‘Work or Fight!” Ze the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Why is it that the proposed policy of “work or fight” applies only to men of draft age? It should not be necessary to wait until the present draft age is raised before all idlers and loafers are forced to work or fight. * Cannot something be done to compel this leisure-loving class of pool-room loaf- ers, etc., who are outside the draft age to go to work or to join Uncle Sam's fight- ing forces, to become producers if they in- sist on being consumers? In these trying times, when men, both young and old, are dying in France in or- der that democracy may live, and when the need for men is greater than at any time in our history, surely no man with a spark of manhood remaining will be found among the idlers, who invariably either gain their money in a very questionable way, or, as is more often the case, impose on their families for support. Let the motto be: Everyone who con- sumes must also produce.” “PATRIOT.” “Hail, Hail, the Gang’s All Here!” To the Editor of the Post-Dfspatch. Referring to a recent editorial, “A Re- formed Song.“ you do not seem to bear in mind that the tune to the song is that of the Pirate's Chorus in Gilbert and Sulli- van's opera, The Pirates of Penzance.” At a revival of this opera, in New York, given several years ago by De Wolff Hop- per and his associates, I sat next to a young college boy who actually thought that Sullivan had stolen the air from the college boys and dppropriated it to the ' Pirates of Penzance!” GEO. R. ROBINSON. Disorderly Boys at Tower Grove Park. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Would you please advise if it is not possi- ble to have a park watchman on duty on Saturdays, Sundays and until 9 o’clock in the evenings at Tower Grove Park? This beautiful park is the playground of @ great many children, and some of them are a most lawless bunch of boys. Last evening (Sunday) the beautiful lake was almost covered with sticks, papers and rubber-tree leaves. These leaves evidently. were pulled from the large, handsome rubber plants recently set out. Boys were walking on the stones that surround the lily ponds, inside the inclosure, trying to catch crawfish and frogs. They also swim their dogs through the lily ponds. Two of them were trying to see how far they could bend the small trees near the fish pond without breaking the trees. Paper is left scattered by parties and the children climb over the old entrance at the pond and are a generally lawless bunch. At the band concerts they run backward and forward, up and down aisles, and dis- turbed the concert goers until it was a nuisance. I saw one letter in your paper about this last fall, and know that there are many people who would like to see a watchman kept on these grounds when the concerts begin again. A real Ive“ watchman is badly needed there every evening. EB. H. Botanical avenue. — — Labor in St. Louis and Elsewhere. Te the Kditor of the Post-Dispatch. It certainly is not to the interest of our city that the employers of labor have been lacing so small a value on labor. While f eastern and many western cities have felt the scarcity of labor, St. Louis has not felt it until recently, and now other cities art taking our labor away from us in trainioads because our employers are not af ER SIT NS fe aby 1 ie ON THE SAME FOOTING. Defenders and beneficiaries of the bridge arbi- trary on coal, in resisting the petition of the Chamber of Commerce to the Interstate Com- merce Commission for equalization of the coal rates, would like to have it appear that adjudi- cation of the question will place East St. Louis in- dustries at a disadvantage. Having no just de- fense against the removal of an unjust burden from St. Louis industry, East Side interests have, with complete insincerity, sought sympathy on account of a presumed disadvantage to be in- curred by them if the bridge arbitrary is re- moved. It is not desired or intended to place any Egst Side industry at a disadvantage. What the Chamber of Commerce is asking the Interstate Commerce Commission to do, and what, in view of the strong case being made at the Jefferson Hotel hearing, the commission is pretty certain to do, is to relieve St. Louis industry of the dis- advantage under which it has suffered for years. It is not desired or intended that East Side in- dustries shall, in reprisal, be placed under a dis- advantage. All that St. Louis asks is that the industries on both sides of the river be placed on precisely the same footing. Industries which have located on the East Side, on account of the disadvantage the bridge arbitrary would place them under on the West Side, will not return to the West Side when that disadvantage is removed. They have made their investments on the Hast Side and even though they would have preferred to locate in St. Louis, they will stay there and, being on the same foot- ing with St. Louis industries in the matter of coal cost, will be able to hold their own in fair competition. The question is not: “Shall East Side indus- tries be placed at a disadvantage in competition with West Side industries?“ The question is: “Shall the disadvantage under which West Side industries have suffered be removed and all in- | dustries in the St. Louis industrial district be placed on the same footing?” == = „ NEW AVIATION POSSIBILITIES. 1 The meager news that Lieut. F. L. Fleer of the Marine Flying Corps at Miami, Fla., has suc- ceeded in looping the loop 109 times in succession suggests that we are approaching the time when human skill and boldness in the art of flying, on the one hand, and the perfection of the machine, on the other, are converging to a union that is fraught with wonderful possibilities. And this in spite of the fact that accidents, too often re- sulting in fatalities, are of daily occurence. The public will be interested in knowing more both of the man and the machine that accom- plished the almost incredible feat at Miami. How much practice Lieut. Fleer had had, whether he has any special physical and mental adaptation to such a performance, how he felt while execut- ing the feat and afterwards, what kind of,a ma- chine he used and how it was prepared for this tremendous test—all these things should throw light upon future aviation possibilities. On both sides of the Atlantic we are starting mail routes in the air. Lieut. Fleer's accom- plishment seems to show that such uses for the airplane will become safe and certain. = = * r FEDRRAL ANTI-LYNCHING BILL. Nothing may come of the present attempt to pass a congressional anti-lypching law. It is, however, of interest as based on one of the most novel and ingenious theories ever advanced for the extension of the Federal jurisdiction. Lynch- ers are made punishable in the United States courts, not only when their vietim is a man eligi- ble to military service, but when the victim is a relative in remote degrees of consanguinity to such a man. The latter are included on the the- ory that lynching them may impair the efficiency of the man eligible to service. But if an extension of the Federal jurisdiction in this respect is justified by a man’s status as a soldier or prospective soldier, may it not also be justified by his status as a citizen and voter or prospective voter? If a man’s usefulness in war is to determine the legal question, may not his usefulness as a voter in presidential and congres- sional election be also determinative? And if it is extended to lynchings on this ground, to what acts affecting voters and their distant rela- tives may it not be dxtended? The bill proposes a dangerous experiment, vio- lative of fundamental legal principles. = = i a Official vacation advice: See Germany “licked first” and see America later. = = * a PLUMBERS AND LONGEVITY. | Other trades and avocations add to our possi- bilities of wealth, to the convenience and com- fort of our daily living, to our facility of com- munication and transport, to our entertainment and enjoyment. But do we owe greater obligation to the other trades and avocations providing these gifts than we owe to the plumbers, who have added to our span of life? Before the meeting of the master plumbers’ na- tional organization in St. Louis, M. C. Engels of Kansas City read a paper in which he asserted the claim that the plumbers have in a generation added 10 years to human longevity, increasing the average age from 33 to 45 years. While they assert no special initiative in the discovery of those principles of sanitation which have made possible this extension, the plumbers may be conceded to be the practical agents through which many of those principles are given effect. The vividness with which Mr. Engels contrast- ed former primitive methods of living with those of the present causes wonder that our fathers and grandfathers managed to survive infancy under conditions that defy all our notions as to health safeguards. But defy them they did. That they were sturdy old gentlemen, coming of rugged | stock, affords no reason for continuing unnec- essary handicaps on the struggle for existence at present. The lesson is to afford still more scope for the plumbers and that is precisely what the St. Louis Department of Health is now propos- ing. It is urging the passage of an ordinance that will amplify greatly the local plumbers’ op- portunity for lengthening the average span of life. When the same ordinance was proposed several yours, ag, % wes Goterminediy ‘end successfully opposed, but with what result? To carry out the program now will involve a cost exactly 100 per cent greater—accepting.the master plumbers’ own figures on increase in average cost as well as in average life—compared with the cost at the time the former ordinance was pending. Probably plumbing costs are going still higher. Should not the Health Department plan for in- creasing average life expectancy by improving ten- ement sanitation be adopted before the plumb- ers have a chance to fix further increases in av- erage cost? That at least seems a logical con- clusion. = = * The reapers are in action with the same steady click as the machine guns and they are doing as much to win the war. = = rr * THE NAVY'S BIG TANK. More than 200,000 American soldiers were sent ample equipment and supplies for them as well as for the hundreds of thousands already there. It was a stupendous accomplishment. The story of how it was made possible is one of the finest chapters in the history of the American navy. Most of us have known, in a vague’ way, that the navy was doing big things. But we have been thinking of its numepous fighting duties, its long patrols along our shores and in the North Sea and the English Channel; of its great battleships and cruisers, its waspish submarines and its scud- ding destroyers. We have almost entirely over- looked the miracle it has wrought in making over the merchant marine into an engine of warfare. In the great demand for shipping, almost every tub that would float has been put into service. They were manned by civilian officers, competent and incompetent, and their crews came from all ranks, whether American or foreign, good citi- zens or wharf rats, whom high wages and ex- travagant bonuses could induce to take a job. Yet it was found that the arrangement wouldn’t do. The masters were self-willed at the wrong time. The crews were discontented and unwilling to work over union hours or were subject to pan- ic and disorder in time of grave emergency. The navy has solved the problem by putting its own officers and men on the ships. It has en- rolled the mariners in the naval reserves. It is preparing to man 1010 vessels to be turned over by the Shipping Board with 10,000 officers and 42,137 men. The reserve, although only a year old, already has 80,000 officers and men. Every merchant ship commanded by a naval officer and crew is a potential war ship. It can be re- lied upon to obey orders in any crisis and to fight as long as it is afloat, whether it is equipped for fighting or not. All this might properly be called only a side- line with the navy. Yet it is not less important than any of the rest of its great duties. It affords the visible and tangible “lines of communication” between our armies in France and their bases back home. When the navy appeals for recruits in any city of the country it is asking men to help do the one indispensable work, without which all our other war preparations would be fore- doomed to failure. ~ training for useful and profitable careers in the merchant marine after the war. = =] * i i A Twenty-one St. Louis men think they look like Lincoln, but few of them look like they think like Lincoln. Yet one of them may fill the bill for the Independence Day celebration, if he doesn’t try to talk like Lincoln. (= =] * i i GERMAN BLACKMAIL BY SCANDAL. ‘The basis of the alleged Hbel of which Publisher Noel Pemberton-Billings of London has been ac- quitted in a suit in which Maud Allen, American dancer, and her manager, were complainants, is of small interest in this country. The testimony, however, recalled an old crime tragedy in identifying Maud Allen as a sister of that Durrant who was hanged in California for the murder of a young girl in a church steeple and made a new revelation of German reptile propo- ganda that is of interest in all countries sym- pathetic to the entente. This revelation concerned the compilation under German auspices of a black- mail volume in which was recorded the indiscre- tions And alleged indiscretions of persons who might, under the coercion of threatened exposure, be forced to serve ends useful to Germany. That an unscrupulous Government which re- sorted to wholesale bribery should resort to so effective an agency as social blackmail should oc- casion no surprise whatever. It is easy to see how situations and personal experienees, innocent in themselves, might be distorted and misconstrued in such a compilation and how many might shrink at a public explanation of incidents in which they were blameless. And, of course, persons who really had a skeleton in the closet may be suscep- tible to indefinite terrorization. It is like criminal Germany to resort to satanic means to which even some of the most depraved of individuals refuse to descend. To what extent was the blackmail system employed? Probably this agency does not explain the hesitating and astonishing votes of some of our own Congress- men, especially in the early months of the war. We know, however, that at all capitals there are persons invested with public responsibility who are unfortunate enough to have passages in their lives they would rather conceal. Any who have been caused by German blackmail to waver be- pitied than blamed. The straight course is the only safe course. Toward those who defy ex- posure the public will be generous and forgiving. _— = aa > Necessary Expenditure. From the Boston Transcript. “I say, Brown, can't you manage to pay me that $10 you owe me?

HE late Fred Funston, who commanded the Twentieth Kansas in the Philippines, once said that if the American soldier ever met his equal the scene would be the nnest in his tory.‘‘ On that occasion,’’ said the redoubtable Fred, „sparks will for the firgt time hit the sky ’’ — Mr. Antwine recalled this during the weck, when our marines went over on the second page and hit the Germans a whack that bordered on lese majes- ty. It tickled everybody in the paper but the Ger- mans, who were so flabbergasted that for the first time since the first battle of the Marne they didn’t know whether they were afoot or horseback. However, sparks did not hit the sky. That may come later. Everyhody who went forward to see what would happen when the marines struck agrees that the Germans were not their match—not those Germans. Doubtless the Kaiser has some ‘other kinds; but whether he has the kind Funston was talking about nobody in the paper knows. Most of us doubt it. Socrates, who sat on an advertisement on Page 3 and watched the tin helmets fly when the marines hit the Germans, says there are no Germans such as Funston was talking about. Socrates is a heavy, under-surface thinker, and the way he makes it out is this: The Germans may have everything that 50 years of preparation for war could give them; but they still lack the spirit of America, which offsets it all He says we are a great big, free, out-of- door lot of bear-cats who have been taught to hate getting licked at anything worse than poison. „ou know when the Olympian Games were re- vived in different parts of the world, we found out something,’’ Socrates said to some of our two-story thinkers on the editorial page the other day. ‘‘If a dozen men started in à race, the first six fellows under the wire were Americans. What was that? Was it the difference in athletic training? No. It was the difference in spirit. When we came over here, as someone has said, we first fell on our knees to thank God and then fell on the Indians. „The Indians were a free, rangy, athletic lot, and we had to go some to catch them. That made us what we are—the springiest, rangiest, up-and-at- em- iat race the world has éver seen. We'll have our set- backs fighting the Germans, but nothing like the Germans will have their knockbacks. We'll lick them all the way from the Marne to the Rhine, and then boot them across. I have said all the time that if the allied line holds until we can get a mil- lion men over there nothing will stop those million men. People have laughed at that—nobody likes the baby-killing General Staff and the bloodthirsty old Hohenzollern himself. The laughter isn’t so up- roarious now. It might be said to be dying down.“ However, that is only our phase of the war—a« phase without any great bearing as yet upon whole situation. It only interests us. Our allies have been encouraged by what has happened, and they all say they see the Kaiser's finish when enough of us get over there. Still, nobody is blinded to those major phases of the war which far exceed in import- ance the pursuit of an occasional squad of Huns by an American marine with red hair and a Bowie knife. : The fact of the matter is that the Germans came mighty near occupying: the front page early in the 1 Written fer the POST-DISPATCH by Clark McAdams | week. ü dale aan tried to get over as anybody ever saw. There are a lot of Germans available since the Russians quit, and the weight of numbers thrown on the allied line tells like blazes. Not everybody understands how tile ele- ment of surprise can enter into these attacks; but Thrasymachus, who got farther forward in the paper during the week than any of our other observers, says if one sees them at it the thing is plainer. What they do, according to Thrasymachus, is to assume pretty much everywhere an indication of being about to attack. They fire on the allies everywhere, feint where attacks are most expected, and then finally drive in where some such favorable condition as fog or extreme darkness at night catches the allies nap-_ ping. The allies can’t run up and down the line all the time. They would wear their reserves out. They can only anticipate attack as best they can, and then hurl their reserves into the defense when the Ger- mans really make a major attack. That has the dis- advantage of yielding ground to superior numbers; but it stops the attack when the reserves get to it and has this good feature, that it costs the Germans Hit i K 3 Pk 1111 111 F E * — what sort of shape the Taiser's army peace drive, in his opinion, and not ning the war.

She looked right through them or over them and stepped along with an air that plaifily said she knew she was beautiful. Miss Bunny had never heard that pride sometimes takes a fall, and if she had, very likely she would have held her head just as high, but, alas and alack for Miss Bunny.

She num- bered her, admirers by the hundred. Then came the war. Mata by that time had gained the trust and the af- fections of more than one man high in French military and political lite, and these men seem to have talked to her, with perilous freedom, of state matters which should have been guarded as life and death se- crets. . If any of her Gallic admirers had cared to hire detectives to look up Mata Hari’s past (as later was done) they would have learned that this olive-skinned heartbreaker had lost her own heart a few years before. She had fallen hopelessly in love with a German nobleman who had been living at that time in Paris. Though this German was not known to be especially rich, yet he supplied funds which kept Mata in almost regal luxury. The money came from Berlin's Wilhelmstrasse Secret Service Bureau. ATA presently acquired a habit of disappearing every now and then from Paris. It was learned that during these periods.of absence she was paying unheralded visits to Berlin, where her German sweetheart was now living. After these disappearances she would always come back to Paris or go to London, there to lure talkative officials into revealing state secrets. To do these men justice, none of them had any idea she was a Ger- man spy. To them Mata was mere- ly a beautiful and charming woman who showed a keenly intelligent in- terest in their professional duties and in politics. In February, 1917, Mata Hari was arrested in Paris. The French police had graduafly made out a complete case against her. They proved she was a highly paid agent of the Wilhelmstrasse and that she was constantly sending French — English war information to Ber- Among the secrets she had de- trayed to the Germans was a detailed account of the “tanks” which the En- glish were privately constructing for use against the enemy. Mata’s guilt was established be- yond all doubt. She was tried, con- victed and sentenced to be shot. Ger- many did not lift a finger to save her from the firing squad, and she paid with her life for her spy exploits. Blame the Tailor.

Miss Bunn had cleaned her fur coat y that time, so she walked away; but she made up her mind to wear that white coat all summer in spite of anything Jack Rabbit had said. “He doesn’t know everything, I guess,“ said Miss Bunny. So when the spring days came Miss Bunny stayed in the house; she closed the shutters and ate only a nibble of the green things she had in the pantry, so they would last. One night she awoke and was so hungry she could not sleep, think- ing of all the good things in Mr. Man’s garden.

The bones are only used as a flavoring, the bone marrow supplying the fat.

The detective was positive hat wherever Vicky Van and Julie were, or whatever they were doing, they were in all probability disguised, and thoroughly so, or they must have been discovered ere this. To my amusement, Fibsy and Ruth were holding a tete-.a-tete conversa- tion. The kind-hearted woman ad, doubtless, felt sorry for the boy's shyness, and had drawn him into chat to put him at his ease. She had succeeded, too, for he was ahimated, and had lost his self-con- sciousness under the charm of her smile. “And I'll bet your birthday comes in the spring,” he was saying, as I caught the tenor of their talk. “It does,” said Ruth, looking sur- prised. “How did you guess?” Cause you're just like a little spring flower—a white crocus or a bit of arbutus.“ And then, noting my attention, the boy- was covered with confusion and blushed to the tips of his ears.

Really, that child will grow up a poet, if he doesn't look out!” “You are like a flower,“ I mur mured back. “And I’m glad your birthday is in spring. I mean to celebrate it!“ And then I thought of poor Vicky Van's birthday, so tragically ended, and I quickly changed the subject. Armed with the pictures, Fleming Stone and his young assistant spent the next day on a still hunt. And in the evening Stone over to see me. “A little quiet confab,“ he said, as we secluded ourselves in my sit- ting room and closed the door. “I've been to a score of places, and invari- ably they recognize Miss Van Allen and her maid, but all say they’ve not seen her since the tragedy. I went to shops, offices, the bank and places where she would be likely to need to go. Also her friends’ houses. But nothing doing.

Now, Mr. Calhoun, the very thoroughness of her disappearance, the very inviolable secrecy of her hiding places proves to me that she isn’t hiding.” “Now, Mr. Stone,” I said, smiling, „you talk like a real story-book de- tective. Cryptic utterances of that sort are impressive to the layman, you know.“ “Pshaw!” and he looked annoyed. “if you knew anything about de- tective work, you'd know that the most seemingly impossible conditions are often the easiest to explain.” „Well, then, explain. I'll be glad to hear.“ “T will. And, in return, Mr. Cal- houn, I’m going to ask you if you don’t think that all things considered, you ought to tell me what you are keeping back? You won't mind, will you, if I say that I have deduced, from evidence,” he smiled, “that your interests are largely coincident with those of Mrs. Schuyler?” ‘You're on,” I said, shortly, not annoyed at his perspicacity. Well, then, I assure you that Mrs. Sch tyler is most desirous of locating Mie Van Allen. She is not 80 re- ven; eful or vituperative as the sisters of Jer husband, but she feels it is due to her husband's memory to find hia slayer, if possible. but Now suppose you tell me what you know, and I promise to keep it an in- violate confidence except so far as t actually helps the progress 6f the wheels of justice.“ “I do want to do what is best for Mrs. Schuyler’s interests,” I said, after I had thought a moment. “But, I must confess, I have a certain sym- pathy and pity for Victoria Van Al- len. I cannot believe her guilty’’ Then tell me frankly the truth. If you are right, and she is not the murderer, the truth can’t harm her. And if she is the guilty person, you are compounding a felony, in the eyes of the law, to withhold your in- formation.” Stone spoke a little sternly, and i realized he was right. If Vicky were untraceably hidden, all I could tell wouldn't hurt her. And, too, I couldn't see that it would, anyway. Moreover, as Stone said, I was mak- ing myself amenable to the law, by a refusal to tell all I knew, and since I was so aware of my own devotion to Ruth Schuyler, I felt I had no right to do anything that she would disapprove. And, I knew that a touch of feminine pique in her dispo- sition would resent any consideration of Vicky over her own claims! Therefore, I told Fleming Stone all I knew of Victoria Van Allen, both before, during and after the occasion of her birthday party. He listened, with his deep eyes fixed on my face. aes — Most extraordinary!” he said, at last, after I had finished. “I never heard of such daring! To enter her own house when it was watched by the police“ “Only the post patrol, then,” I re- minded him. “She could easily man- age between his rounds.” “Yes, yes, I know. But you've put the whole thing in different focus. Tell me more.” There was no more to tell, but I went over my story again, amplify- ing and remembering further details, until we had spent the whole eve- ning. He egged me on by questions and his burning, eager eyes seemed to drink in my words as if they were so much priceless wisdom. And I told him, tod, that I had promised to put Vicky’s address book in the Chinese jar for her that very evening. “We'll do it!” he exclaimed, promptly. “She meant to meet you there, I'm sure, but I'm also sure she changed her mind about that, when she learned of my advent. However, we'll keep your promise.” Acting at his instructions, I went with him over to Vicky Van's. It was about midnight, and as he had the address book with him, he kept possession of it.

The Golfer Who Is Continually in RICAN LEAGUE bi FORCUT 10 ~ AQ-GAMESEASON| | , —BAN JOHNSON. National Game’s Pilot Tells Post-Dispatch Schedule Has Been Prepared in Case Order Comes From Wash- ington. - CURTAILMENT IS NOT E Rye ee ee ee es 5 rr * hg eek n en 2 oe aed that CONSIDERED LIKELY Major Organization Leaders “Given to Understand“ National Game Will Not Be Stopped Unless Emer- gency Arises. That there is to be a radical read- justment of the baseball player’s mode of living for the .duration of the war and that the League can reduce its schedule to 140 games or less, within 24 hours, providing a crisis in the fighting ar- rives which would necessitate such u move, were the two outstanding points in an interview given out here yesterday by President Ban Johnson of the American League. Mr. Johnson made it lain. how- ever, that neither he nor Govern- ment officials with whom he has con- versed, saw any reason right now why the national pastime should not continue along its present channel. “The American League has a sub- stitute schedule now framed, which can be adopted over night,“ said Mr. Johnson. “Should the necessity ar- rive, we will simply reduce our chart to 140 games as provided for in the schedule I have in mind. This would merely cut off 14 games and would not in any way interfere with the de- ciding of the championship. “I was in Washington several days before Gen. Crowder issued his ‘work or fight order.’ I was given to un- derstand that this would not apply to baseball. Therefore, we do not contemplate having to close our parks; on the other hand, we are go- ing along the same as usual. Attendance ‘‘Astonishes’’ Ban. “As to next season, I am not pre- pared to say at this time just what will happen. Im my trips around the efreult I have been actually aston- ished at the attendance in all cities. It is far beyond our expectations and the fact that we have a close race in the American League has helped us wonderfully. “Providing the crowds hold up, I think it is safe to say that several clubs will make money this season not as much as in previous years, when there was no war to distract the minds of our fans, bat tm enough to make it werth while to rum the game and give the Govern- ment the benefit of the war taxes.” In the event the parks should be closed, would the American League reserve orrsirnking fund be used to defray overhead expenses for the club owners?” Mr. Johnson was asked. 5 Reserve Is Not Needed. “Absolutely not,” he replied. Our clubs, without exception, are backed by men of sufficient means to care kor all obligations accruing from such a move. These men are willing to bear all expense of empty parks for several years or as long as the Gov- ernment wants us to remain closed - and theu resume where we left off. ’ The eendition of the Amer- fean League was never getter, and we have no weed for concern om such a score. J want you to make it plain for me, though, that our conversation along such lines is dealing entirely in possibilities. We have no idea at all of asking our club owners to do this, but shall keep the parks open throughout this sefsen, at least. Plans for next season will be dis- cussed when the occasion arises.” Sin Months’ Work Needed. Concerning the baseball players’ method of Hving, Mr. Johnson stated if American League players adopted his suggestion, there would be no &ix-months’ vacation after the close of the season. The American League head said he would encourage all athletes who have been given deferred classifications because of de- pendency, to get in some line of work essential to the successful prosecu- tion of the war, He pointed out that because of the many classes of men represented in baseball, the players should comprise a useful unit for the Government. Many players, he said, were college graduates skilled in some special line of work. These, he thought, might de avaliable for some particular need of Uncie Sam. Then, too, the Ameri- can League head pointed out that not a few of the players own farms and would be useful in this capacity. Johnson to Join Red Cross. Mr. Johnson himself will set the example by giving up practically all of his time to Red Cross work as soon as the season is over, in fact, he hase been doing this for almost a year. He further said that in the event the game should discontinue, he would make an effort to get every r in the employ of the 33 ent in any capacity they might be wanted. “The Sunday baseball proposition is very encouraging.“ Mr. Johnson concluded. “It was gratifying to the 1 League that Government a us to play on the Sabbath the national capitol. We will not make an effort to have the ban raised in the remainder of the Wastern cities, though I am satiefied that were it not for the war, they ) follow the example of Wash- American Veteran Who Plays in District Tourney Final for First Time W ae : OR ’ , See 5 oe N me 5 N 2 Sullivan reached the final by defeating in order D.

It looks like Fate is just naturally against our Browns. One of the most serious mishaps of the season occurred in the fifth inning of yes- terday’s game with the Yankees when Les Nunamaker, the big catch- er, sustained a broken finger on his throwing hand. Miller was batting | and Nunamaker reached out for a | pitched ball with his bare hand. It hit the little finger and fractured a bone. Fielder stated after the game that while Nunamaker’s injury was not serious, yet it would keep him out of the game for at least a week or 10 days. As the Browns have just lost their fifth straight contest. this misforttine is more serious than it otherwise would be. Nupnamaker thus far has been one ot the most timely hitters on the club and hie big bat is bound to be missei. Severeid Not Ready. George Hale will do practically all the shelf. Hank Severeid is not yet ready to catch regularly, although he made his bow in the ninth yesterday | and Jones says he can fill in from time to time, if needed. The batting order may be changed slightly fon | the fourth game of the series this afternoon, Gerber and Hale exchang- ing seventh and eighth places, re- spectively. While Nunamaker's injury was the cause of much gloom, a ray of hope appeared in Manager Jones’ state- turn. Gallia has been bothered with a sore arm and although he is still can be used if needed. Allan Soth- oron’s thumb, too, ts on the mend and he should be ready saon. Urban Shocker lost a hard 1 to 6 his former mates yester- thus assuring the Yankees of the Browns could not hit safely with men on the Pitching selections for today’s game are very Gubious.

Hav. ’ ing won with a right-hander, Hun- with an outside chance that ‘gins may send in Caldwell, or again chance with Thor- whom the Browns knocked out of the box in the first game. Today's game will begin at 3 o'clock. Can't This Be Stopped? Yesterday's defeat put the Browns out of the first division and below the .500 mark for the first time in several weeks. The loss of straight games has taken the bulge oft their percentage. PETERSON ADVISES HOPPE. TO REDUCE ILE PLAY WAGER Play Five Men Even for $500 Each Instead of One for $2500, He Says. EACH MATCH 1200 POINTS Would Stage One Contest a Week — Winner to Take Entire Gate Receipts. The offer of “Young Jake“ Schae fer to play Willie Hoppe on even terms for the world’s balkline cham- pionship, has elicited the suggesticn from Charles C. Peterson of St. Louis, with whom Hoppe made his last tour, that the champion engage five of the best players of the pres- ent age in a round robin tournament involving the title. Hoppe recently offered to * any challenger 6000 to 5000 for a side bet of 32500 or more. Peterson does not believe he will find any players who are willing to risk that much money on a match with Hoppe since he has proven that he far out- classes the field. However, the St. Louisan is of the opinion that if Hoppe will follow his suggestion he not only will get one title match, but four additional ones as well. Not Freezing Them Out. “Hoppe has offered to play 6000 points against an opponent’s 500),” said Peterson, “and thus far has had but one acceptance, that from Schae- fer. The latter, however, seems un- willing to risk the side bet that Hoppe demands, which is $2500. “In view of Hoppe’s apparent su- premacy over his rivals, the refusal of billiard players to bite at this bait is not surprising. But I do not be- lieve Hoppe is trying to put a pro- hibitive price on his title, nor can I bring myself to the opinion that he is unwilling or afraid to risk it. He offers the argument that the laurels he now holds represent the work of a lifetime. “That’s very true, but there are others besides himself who have spent tirne and money in billiards and are still doing it. It is for the sake of those that I believe Hoppe should lower his side bet proposition to the extent of splitting it among five challengers. “The plan I have in mind is sim- ply this: Let him play five of the best players a 1200 point match, a $500 side bet to prevail in each contest. In this manner he would be playing his 6000 points and at the same time would get the total wager of $2500 he gemands, The gate receipts also would go to the winner. Should Draw Good Money. “It would seem to me that the gate receipts from five matches should be a great deal larger than those from one, which would increase his winnings, Moreover, he would be relieved of the handicap of 1000 points he offers to concede, as he would be playing all challengers on even terms. “Offhand I can name five or six players whom I am positive would be willing to put up $500 for a chance with Hoppe. They are Schaefer, Slosson, Sutton, Morning- star, Cochran and possibly Yamada. Each of these matches of 1200 points could be played in blocks of 400 points nightly. They would be held in different cities each week or wherever Hoppe might designate. I would be willing to stage one here in St. Louis. “If Hoppe plans another tour this year, these contests could easily be disposed of before he starts. I be- lieve October would be the best time. Anyhow, I'd like to sed Willie give all the fellows a chance they are entitled to. I admit he’s the greatest player, hence I know he can prove it against these men. But I am equally positive they would be willing to take the chance.” * Jock Hutchinson made the North Shore Golf Club course at Chicago in 69 strokes, establishing a new course record in a practice match.

By Leased Wire From the New York Duread of the Pest-Dispatch. NEW YORK, June 8.—The Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial re- Mew today, says: “Without any increase of activity, prices on the Stock Exchange ad- vanced today. As a rule the gains aaa 8 fractional, but the movement ery general and undoubtedly re — 9 cheerfulness in financial sentiment. “The day’s recovery might be as- cribed to the mere fact that the later selling pressure of the week had made so little impression on the market. But it is reasonable to assume that yesterday's crop report, and the high- ly encouraging forecasts for the rest of the season, which have followed it, was a potent influence. “After all, the prospects of a bumper crop is traditionally the strongest favorable influence which can be éxerted-on the stock market. When these harvest estimates have come simultaneously with the far more reassuring news from the west- ern front in Europe—especially with the evidence of the past few days that the American troops have be- come effective auxiliaries to the al- lies—the attitude of the market at the week-end is not difficult to un- derstand.” Surplus reserves of the associated banks showed an increase of $11,165,- 000 for the week, bringing the sur- plus to the highest figure since the opening week of May. Chances in the loan and deposit accounts were slight; the addition to surplus result- ing from moderate increase in re- serve credits at the Federal Bank. That institution reported an increase of $63,800,000 in rediscounts for mem- ber banks. The outstanding total, $462,098,0)0, is now the high mark of the season.

The latter ratio might have been larger_if the man- agement had not elected to increase expenditures for maintenance of equipment by 46 per cent over the expenditures for last year. An un- usual effort is apparently being made to bring equipment to a high state of efficiency; this is indicated by the fact that not only in April were equipment maintenance expenditures 46 per cent over those of April, 1917, but for the four months to April 30 these expenditures show an increase of over 46 per cent. Maintenance of way and structure expenditures for the same period increased 5.3 per cent. American Locomotive’s earnings for the fiscal year ending June 30 are tentatively estimated in the neigh- ‘borhood of $22 a share on the com- mon stock, or about the same as the previous fiscal period when profits were equivalent to $21.80 a share. For the first half of the current fiscal eg | year American Locomotive earned $12.38 a share on its junior issue. Earnings of the six months now clos- ing were not as high and probably will run somewhere between $9 and $10 a share. With profits of $22 a share for 1917-18, American Locomo- tive in the three-year period 1915- 1918 will have earned a‘ total of $80 Ma a share on its common, a surplus of $70 after all dividends. United Verde Extension Mine will soon be developed on the 1500, 1600 and 1700 levels. Within six months the three new levels should open up millions of dollars of new ore. The new smelter should be fully in opera- tion by Sept. 15. Capacity is 1200 tons, but 1000 tons only will be util- ized at this time. New equipment at the mine represents a total of $5,000,- 000. Of this $4,000,000 has already been charged off out of earnings. Very large operating economies It ig figured that in freight charges alone there should be a reduction of $1,000,000 per annum. Annual report of the Acme Tea Co. for the year ended Dec. 31, last, shows sales of $24,540,855, an increase of $6,226,118, or 34 per cent, over the previous year. Next to the increase in the Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea Co.’s sales, this is the largest per cent increase reported by any chain store for 1917. Last month’s production figures of Inspiration Consolidated Copper Co., like Anaconda, made an excellent showing. May output was the best since June a year ago, when 11,150,- 000 pounds were produced. Last month’s production of $10,250,000 pounds showed an increase of 1,000,- 000 pounds over April and was at the annual rate of 123,000,000 pounds. Inspiration should continue to turn out between 10,000,002 and 11,000,000 pounds a month throughout the rest of the year, assuming that there are no labor troubles at the property or other interference with operations. The company should show a total output of at least 110,000,000 pounds for 1918. This would compare with 80,666,983 pounds in 1917 and 120,772,- 637 in 1916. Bank Statement. NEW YORK.

Corn sold about ic higher in the early market here today, on talk of better export demands. Late in the session there was a price re- action. Receipts were fair. Weath- er was favorable for the new crop. Oats were easy with corn. The mar- ket closed irregular, and slightly un- der yesterday's finish. The Government report, while showing a much smaller winter wheat crop than expected in its re- port of 687,000,000 bushels, or 14,- 000,000 more than last month, sur- prised the trade by giving 344,000,- 000 spring, or within 7,000,000 of the record crop in 19156. . The total wheat crop is 931,000,000 bushels, against 651,000,000 harvested last year. It is close to the record and means much, as all will be needed to feed this country and the allies. Should it come through to harvest at the present level, and indications are that it will be larger, there will be a surplus of close to 500,000,000, so that consumption can be nearly nor- mal. Conditions of winter wheat of 83.8 is under the 10-year average, but the trade looks for a larger yield than shown in this month's report. Spring wheat condition is 95.2, the best in years, and has seldom been exceeded. Acreage is 22,489,000. Oats crop estimated at 1,500,000 bushels on 44,475,000 acres, with condition 93.2, the best in years. and Wis:onsin—Unsettled tonight and Sunday.
