The board of directors of the Merchants’ Exchange will hold a meeting within three or four days, when the question will be taken up. It is anticipated that such a motion will be made by a member of the Stock Exchange before the Fourth, and will doubtless be carried. It’ has been”the custom for these centers of trade to remain closed on the day follow- ing a holiday when the latter falls on Fri- day, and Secretary Morgan of the Mer- chants’ Exchange expects that the custom will prevail as regards this Fourth of July. VACATIONS IN CHICAGO. The news that practically all the big atores in Chicago have agreed to close for the three days is encouraging to the ideal workers in mercantile establishments. The Chicago merchants have decided to let all their employes have the three days off, including July 3, 4 and 5. The em- ployes already are arranging pleasure and recreation schedules for the vacation. . Many will go to laké resorts near the city, others will take a sail on Lake Michigan and still others will visit/relatives in the cotintry. Chicago employers say that they recog-' nige the need of their employes for this brief vacation, and believe that the re- newed interest which will be taken in the daily work after.the three days’ rest will more ‘than repay the merchants for the small time—but half a day in fact—that will be lost from business.

The farm is in a rather obscure lo- cality, and she congratulated herself upon finding an ideal gepot to train their young minds in thriftiness. They worked faithfully for a while, ran about barefooted, wrestled with the other boys, and played all sorts of pranks on their relative, but after a bit labor became monotonous, and the mosquitoes were fierce. Their bare legs seemed the special ob- ject of attack during the day, and at night they could find no rest because of the pests. It became intclerable, they claim, so they planned escape. They mapped out their future movements carefully, learned just when the steamboats went up and down the river, and on Friday before last they were already to make a dash for liberty. The Escape at Midnight. Midnight was the hour set for the thrill- ing deed, ani the little chaps snuggled close together, whispering cautiously and shivering at every hoot of an owl and rustle of a leaf, and a drigz.ing, soaking rain was falling. The boys arose, tied together the bed- clothes, hitehed it to the bedpost, and down the improvised rope they went, leav- ing the imprint of wet ioes along the side of the building. Barefooted and scantily clad, with not a thing to burdin them, not even fcod, they tore along through the gloom urtil they reached the river Sank. Here they had hidden an old skiff, and in they piled, and launched themselves upon the treacherous current. Soon the watcr -had@ leaked through the bottom of the old craft and oozed between their toes, Uut they had provided against this emergency and one of them bailed it out with a tin- can while the other handled the oars. The darkness was terrifying, but they sturdily pulled on until the gray streaks of dawn appeared in the east, and the town of Greenville, ss., hove into view. They heard the whistle of a steamboat and rowed all the faster, reaching the wharf just as the Kate Adams slowly promises something unussa’ at the trial.

Time (unof- ficial), Harvard 11:17, Yale 11:33. Yale had the west course and Harvard the east. The start was made at 2:44 4-5. Harvard took the lead immediately by half a length, rowing a swift stroke and splashing considerably: at first. Yale was also rowing speedily, probably 36. ’ Half way to the half-mile flag Harvard had increased her lead until it became a length, Both crews were rowing collect- ively, although Yale splashed on recovery. At the half-mile flag Harvard led the blue by two good lengths, although Yale seems pulling up a bit. Just as they passed the half-mile flag both crews had reduced their stroke, Harvard rowing 32, while Yale, still splashing, was rowing about 34. Approaching the mile Harvard still main- tained her lead, but had to fight for every inch of it. At the mile flag Harvard had gained, howeyer, and was fully three lengths ahead He Had Heard and Seen Much of the Filipino Leaders Before the Oper- ations at Manila, but Was Not Impressed by Them. } WASHINGTON, June 26.—Admiral Dewey made a statement before the Senate com- mittee on the Philippines today concerning , the early operations at Manila, when -he was in command of the American . naval force in Philippine waters. The.admiral’s statement made an important addition to the history of the surrender of.the city of Manila. This consisted of a positive statement by the admiral to the effect that the city had been surrendered to Him at the time that the Spanish fleet was sunk and that when the city did surrender it was in pursuance of a definite understanding between himself and the Spanish governor-general. The admiral was questioned by Senator Lodge. He. said he had.first heard from Aguinaldo and his friends about April 1, mistake, it is alleged, made little difference in the severity of the operation. : Th officiad statement in the Lancet says nothing of perityphiitis, and the Post-Dis-_ patch correspondent learns that King Ed- ward's private secretary, Sir Francis swung up to it.

PHILADELPHIA, June 2#6.—There is a general belief among Philadelphia doctors that the English doctors had postponed the operation cn the King too long. any ex- pressed surprise that the case had not de- veloped sooner or was not diagnosed soon- oy Thomas G. Morton said: “An opera- tion on King Edward is a very serious matter. There are many things axaitiet him, and the chances for a successful op. eration are siim. advanced age—tl years--is a hindrance, as is also his gen- eral condition. Operations for appendicitis as a rule are successful. The percentage of those who reccver is 9, and I can safeiy say that among the young men there are very few who succumb. “In cases where the patient, though old, is in sound physical eondition—that is, as far as mind and the general state of the bedy is concerned—his appendix can be removed without great danger.” A case that appears to be like the ngs is described thus: ‘“The abscess was A tone the cecum and the parieta periton- and the appendix was three inches distant from the abscess. € cecum at the inflammatory Toane was almost - grenous.

The first year of the new century, 190T, came filled with sorrow for England. The first bulletin announcing the iliness of Queen Victoria was posted Jan. 18, but little attention wes given it by the ‘publiie, who regarded it as a slight indisposition. Four days later her death was announced, and two days after that the deputy garters announced the .accessign of King Edward. Preparations for the most imposing fu- neral in the world’s bistory began, and were carried out, before representative eyes of nearly all civilized nations. The majestic removal of the remains surrounded by war- ships across the Solent ‘with tlrindering guns; the funeral at Osborne and the inier- ment at Frogmore exemplified the empire’s grief. After the reading of the accession procia- mation at the Mansion House, Jan. 24, the Lord Mayor of London called for cheers for the new King. King Edward's Parliament was opened Feb. 14, when the King and Queen pro- ceeded to the House of Lords. Later in the month the King visited the Enrpress Lrederick of Germany, who was enduring her last illness. His royal sister died the following August. In the same year with the Queen of England, ex-President Benjamin Harrison died, Mrs. Kruger passed away, and Presi- ment McKiniey was assassinated; King Milan, Prince Hobenlobe, Prince Henry of Orleans, the Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar, and Lord Wantage breathed their last. And now the King is stricken on the eve of the greatest event of his life. & 99999 OOOO OOOO O49 perityphilitis which has stricken the King were unknown. It might be poisonous se- cretions, which the cecum could not squeeze out of itself, owlug to a sluggisn- ness, or to the irritation of some foreign substance. The effect was what the physi- cians dealt with and that was the inflam- mation in; the surrounding parts. When death restfits in such cases it is caused by blood poisoning. A féw years ago the belief was that seeds or other foreign substance in the caecum and appendix caused the inflamma- tion. People went on eating seeds as usual, howeve& and statistics proved that foreign substances were found in only three out of every hundred of the diseased appendices removed.

Tommy had just descended, in @ para- chute, from a int of vantage 3000 feet above the «ff and the river. Tommy is the boy wonder of the South Side, the Santos-Dumont of the rising gen- eration, He rose 3000 feet at one rise. Tommy,.in short, is a boy aeronaut. He is ft years old; and made his very first as- |. cension from Hashagen’s Park Wednesday’ night. He is the only rocturnal boy palloonist J of the age. He wasn’t even afraid of the dark. He went up through the black at} mosphere of 9:30 o'clock p. m. just as jaun- tily as though it were midday. ' Thomas J. Potts is the’ dignity name: of}: Tommy, the aeronaut. He lives at 414 South Compton avenue; and is a hot air)’ student. His specialty is the hot air balloon. Since an aeronaut and’'an aeronautess have-been making evening ascensfiong ftom the’ park; Tommy has been employed about the place, and hag taken great interest in the balloon. “I'm going’ up in her some night;” he ventured. The aercnaut heard him: “You're talking hot alr now; said the aeronaut. Nevertheless, Tommy nmieant it. He stud- ied the habits of balloons and parachutes, ‘particularly of the specimens used in’ the} park. He became so familiar’with the bal- | loon that he knew he could manage it, pa™ }) achute and all. Wednesday night his chance came.

JL DEAD ON EVE OF SUCCESS. Bast ‘: res! eis et ” — ne Cc ewe “S P 7, fsa tet fs : : ; takes. 1 eee em But I untrue. In that vear Mr. Sage became iil and broke down with nervous prostration. The peculiaritv of the disease in his case war his belief that he was in debt and could raise no money. It was only halluci- nation. A million was borrowed for him as a possible precaution. but his friends did not helieve that he really needed it. “This was found to be true, for when he recovered enough to at*end to busciness it was discovered that he had several mil- lions in the banks. When he came to him- self he instantly paid the debt with ready money. It is the only *ime that he wa<« ever in such a strait and it does not count because, beire il', he had a misconception of his great financtal «trength. “Mr. Sage has made it a point through life never +o be in. debt. He has heen called close by men seeing but one side of h's nature. No man has been more mis nde-- stood than Russell fave. He {s a close fig- urer in rerard to smal! sums, and it is his wav to refuse to pay 50 certs for an artic'« worh but . But tn great transactions invo'vine fortunes he does not hesitate to spend bis money freely. He is a man in whom firanciers have the greatest confi- ence. He has integrity and fair dealing k of his record. He Is Worth One Hundred and Ten Million Dollars. “As to Mr. Sage’s actual wealth, I think it is safe to put it at a lit‘le above $110,000.- 900. Just before Jay Gould died he was talking with some friends one day about Hage, whom he highly esteemed, and said considered him richer by several Se ean than himself. When Gould died his own fortune was estimated at $80,000,- as a good while ago. Page has ‘ millions since r. ould's eee oe Mr. Sage himself is perhaps not aware of it those who have know4 him for years have seen & great change in him in the last year or two. His step is not as elastic as it was several years ago, his car- riage is less erect and he appears to be much less vigorous. His mind is clear as ever and his habits Mave remained un- ed. erie leaves his home in Fifth avenye every morning about 8:30 o'clock, walks over to the Fiftieth street statiop of the Sifth ave- nue “L’’ road and takes a Rector street train. From the Rector street station he walks through the Empire building to Broadway, thence up the shady side of the street to Cedar street, thence to his office in the Bank of Commerce Building. where he always arrives just before $ o'clock. Immediately upon his arrival, he calls Private Secretary Menzies, and the two men go through the voluminous mall with great piuity.. Most of the letters are begging . hese are thrown aside unread. Mr. Sage does not believe in encouraging in- dolence by promiscuous almsgiving. He al- lows Mrs. da e to attend to his charitable work. Several years ago Mr. Sage set aside out of an income for Mrs. Sage, and out of this income all of her charities are rovided for. Mr. Sage never gives to char- ty personally. Counts His Money Daily. As soon as the mall is disposed of and the business letters answered, Mr. Sagé begins his daily inventory of his stocks and bonds.

The brokers find the best time to con- sult Mr. Sage is between lI and 12 o'clock in the forenoon. At that time he receives his call brokers and through them mar- kets the privileges which he still deals in extensively. These privileges are usuatly spreads which are a combination of puts and calls about 10 points each way from the market. They usually run from four to six months. Mr. Sage usually deals in the stocks in which he himself is largely in- terested. His spreads are usually the Mis- souri Pacific, Manhattan and Union. ‘‘ 12 o’clock promptly Mr. Sage goes out to lunch. The Western Union company has for many years set a free lunch for the benefit of its directors and officers in the Western Union building. It is an excel- lent but plain lunch, and is served abso- lutely without cost. The company long ago discovered that even the richest men cati- not well resist the temptation of getting something for nothing. It ls a good thing for a company like the Western Union to have its directors meet together as often as possible. so it hit upon the plan of giv- ing them their lunch for nothing, on the theory that the company would receive che benefit of the frequent meeting together of its directors and officers. The plan has been eminently sticcessful. Mvp. —_ has never missed a lunch in 25 years, when he has been downtown to business. As a re- sult, the Western Union has daily profited by his counsel. In the afternoon Mr. Sage avers goes up to the Importers and Traders’ National Bank, where he looks over the notes and collaterel which have come in in the morn- ing’s business, Every signature and ever stock certificate is examined with the great. est care by the financier, who is still one of the most active directors in the institu- tion. After this work is performed Mr. Sage returns to his office, where between 2 and 3 he is always inaccessible to callers. During this hour he transacts the business of the 25 corporations of which he is a di- rector. At 3 o’clock he leaves his office and goes up to the Fifth Avenue Bank, where he goes through the same method that he has pursued at the Importers’ and Traders earlier in the day. 4 o’clock the business of the day is completed and Mr. Sage begins to take his recreation. This usually consists of way behind one of his fast horses. He usually has one or two horses that can do better than 2:30. He is an expert driver and en- joys nothing more than holding the reins na brush on the tegen By 6 o'clock he is home for dinner and by 9 o'clock he is in bed. This is the routine he has pu- sued with slight variation for nearly 50 ears. He cares nothing for society. rs. e, he says, must attend to all the social rr es of the household as well as the char- es. MINES HIS OWN COAL.

The message is legible and is as follows: “Camp on Little Big Horn, June 28, 1876. “Dear Major: We will start down the river today for the steamboat with the wounded of Custer’s command, and from the mouth of this stream move down to the mouth of the Big Horn. “General Custer’s command met with terrible disaster here on the 25th. Custer with five companies, were, so far as we can ascertain, com letely ‘annihilated, no living man of them having yet been found, and probab! none of them escaped except two of our Crow scouts who were lent Cus- ter by me and brought us the first news. Mitch Bowyer was killed, and the bodies of Gen. Custer, Colonel C.

They were in a desperate strait until 6 o’clock the night before (26th), with very little water and wounded men, and the Indians decamped in very great haste at our approach, leaving an immense ae enna of plunder behind, which we shall estroy today. Losses in the Battle. “The delight of the poor fellows when they discovered us to be friends was éx- treme. Roughly stated, the loss of Cus- ter’s command is about one-half, say 250 men. The Indians were in great strength and were estimated at from 1 to 2500 war- riors. My command is intact and in fine order, and 1 wish you would telegraph the commanding officers at Fort Shaw and Camp Baker that we are all well, to allay the anxiety of friends.

HAD BEEN A STENOGRAPHER HER MOTHER, UPBRAIDED HER FOR TAKING MENIAL POSITION. Then She Swallowed Poison and Was Taken to Hospital, Where She Tells of Domestic Trouble. Clara Doettling of 2842 California avenue, @ typewriter girl 17 years old, daughter of Cc. H. Doettling, a prominent commission merchant at 1025 North Third street, at- tempted to commit suicide with carbolic acid Wednesday night because her father had discharged her as his amanuensis and her mother had scolded her for accepting a menial position in a restaurant. Before she accepted the position in the restaurant, at washing dishes, the _ girl walked the streets for a week seekirg a situation as stenographer, and meeting countiess disappointments. A CLARA ._DOETTLING. oT————————V—V—-——~—————X™~-___--~--~-~— Wednesday, while walking on Franklin avenue, she saw the sign “Girl Wanted,” in a restaurant window at No. 1810. She secured the place at $2.50 a week. When she returned home Wednesday night Mrs. Doettiing scolded her for acepting such a position. The sensitive spirit of the girl was broken. She left the house and boveght carbolic acid. At the corner of Jefferson and Gravios avenues she swallowed the liquor, and fell to the sidewalk. A dozen persons witnessed the act. An ambulance was called, and the unconscious girl was hurried to the City Hospital. Phy- scans syphoned her stomach, and succeeded in counteracting the influence of the drug. Thursday Miss Doettling was able to talk, Her story is that of a domestic disagree- ment. “T have attended two business colleges,” Miss Doettling said, ‘‘and am a good sten- ‘ographer and bookkeeper. For two years after I left college I kept books for my father ahd earned good money. “About four weeks ago father and moth- er quarreled, and he left the house. After that my position became unpleasant, for I sided with my mother. “A week ago fdther discharged me. He could not endure my championship of my mother. “T started out to find another situation, thinking that my experience and knowl- edze of bookkeeping would enable me to secure a place. “But all places were filled. There seemed to be so many stenographers and so few situations. I could not find a place, and the rebuffs I received broke my heart. Resolved to Earn Her Own Living. “T resolved that I would not be a burden on my mother, and finally, when al! chances of securing a clerical position failed I determined to accept any honest employment, no matter how lowly. “It was I secured a place in a - Franklin avenue restaurant. My pay .was to be $2.50 a week. Wednesday I worked at that place and at night went home ani told my mother of my success. ghe was amazed that I should be will- ing to work in the restaurant. She scolded me and said that I could not return to that work, nor secure other employment of character “T left the house while she was talking to me, and decided to quita world which held go much sorrow and disappointment for me. I bought the acid and swallowed it and se no more until I recovered conscious- ness in the City Hospital. “T cannot say that I am sorry, yet I suo- pose I will try to bear my troubles more bravely when I leave the hospital. “Rut 1 can tell any friendless girl who hopes to find an office situation in St. Louis these days that she will meet with disap-. encarta and sorrow.” Doettling, the girl's father, was at hic commission house at AURAL BELLES WEDDING BELLS Cupid Slights the Patrician City Maids.

Being the last Wednesday in June, it appears that many persons who believe that the month of roses is also the monta of matrimony took:advantage of it and went gaily to thé altar, both in the city and the country. But this showing of nearly a half-dozen June bridegrooms deserting the boulevard belles for the Lovers’ lane gazelles is some- thing startling, to say the least. Does it signify that the St. Louis bache- lors have formed a sulb-rosa trust for shut- ting off city competition in favor of the rural trade in marriageable maidens? Or is it possible that the New Woman movement in the city has developed to such an extent that art for art’s sake, and things like that, are interfering with love for love’s sake, and that city young men must go to the country to find the good old- fashioned girl—the lovely Ellen who still sighs for a young Lochinvar and listens for the beat of his steed’s hoofs on the turnpike? Perhaps the writers of ‘Letters From the People’’ may be able to tell why so many city-men go to the country towns for wives? Here are five who went to such places Wednesday: CARTER—GUTHRIE. FULTON, Ky., June 2s —Samuel M. Car- ter of the Colonial Trust Co., St. Louis, was married at the Presbyteriun Church Wednesday morning to Miss Harriet Guth- rie of this city. Until recently Mr. Carter was prosecuting attorney of Wayne Coun- ty, Mo. Mr. and Mrs, Carter will reside in St. Louis. ROCKENSTEIN—SCHOPP. MEXICO, Mo., June 2#.—John Rockenstein of St. Louls and Miss Hannah Schopp of this city were married Wednesday at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Schopp. Mr. Rockenstein js a com- mission merchant. HAAS—GAMBLE. LOUISIANA, Mo., June 26.—J. Richard Haas of St. Louis and Miss Vista Gamble of this city were married Wednesday at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Gamble. The bridal party left at once for St. Louis, where Mr. and Mrs. Haas will reside. KELLERHALS—MUNFORD. MEXICO, Mo., June 26.—William M. Kel- lerhals of St. Louis and Miss Zella A. Mun- ford of Callaway were married Wednesday afternoon at the home of Rev. E. 8. Gibbs in this city. They will go to St. live, after visiting at Benton City. KNABB—BOONE. KINMUNDY, Ill, June 26.—Charles 8. Knabb of St. Louis and Miss Daisy D. Boone of this city were wedded at the home of Mrs. M. J.

HERE IS THE ST. LOUIS GIRIL’/S FOOT, WITH A NO. 4 SHOE. re. BY ROSE MARION. This is a symphony in shoes. The shoes of the women of St. Louis. Their average size, kind and quality. The care that is bestowed upon them and the story they tell of their owner’s char- acter These are the things that make my story of today. To be able to tell them to you I have talked with men who sell shoes, to women who wear the shoes that.are sold, and then to both men and women who look at the shoes that are sold and worn. Size of St. Louis Women’s Shoes. Of course, the first thing you are want- ing to know is the size. The size of a woman’s shoe ranks second to her age in the mind of the crtious. How I wish I could make you Pe instead of having to tell you At once, especially since there has been s0 much discussion in regard to the size of the shoes of Beat women of Chicago. Let me break the suspense. The average- sized shoe of the women of 8t. Louis is neither a great long 7 nor @ tiny 1%. It is a 4, Any day dreams broken? Any fancies shattered? I can’t see why there should be. It seems to me that a 41s a good size for a shoe suggesting, as it does, neither an Amazon J jnor a fairy, but just a woman. Now I am going to tell vou about the largest sized shoe worn by a woman in St. Louls. Take a good breath first. Now hold that breath. It’s a 10. The woman whe wears it is 5 feet 9 inches tall, and heavy. Her shoes are made to order for her. Here’s qa secret. She is not American-born, but I can neither tell you her nationality nor her name. “Zhe man who told me about her is W. J. Greene of the Sorosis shoe department ina Broad- way store, and he is a good father confes- sor to the women whose measures he takes. He tells no stories with names. Smallest Pair of St. Louis Feet. The smallest shoes worn by women. in St. Iouis are is.¢. Shoe dealers tell me that quite a number of 8t. Louis women wear shoes of that size. In order to do that their feet must be no longer than 8% inches. Chinese, did you say? Oh, no; only St. Louis. Think of it, there is a woman in 8t. Louls who weighs 165 pounds but wears a No, 2 shoe. She could wear a 1% if she chose. Her instep is high, however, and her foot wide. As to the kind of shoe. Usually as soon as the weather grows warm tye St. Louls woman puts on low-cut shoes. She wears them until the ecnow comes. So say the dealere—so say the women themselves. More low-cut shoes are sold than any other kind. Some denlers say this habit enlarges the ankle so that it is difficult to fit the wearer of a low-cut shoe with.a high shoe when the weather makes it necessary. Big Demand for Low-Cut Shoes. Others agree that there is an enlarge- ment, but that it makes no material differ- ence, The women say “low-cut shoes are lovely and cool, so what does it matter-’ Some- times these low-cut shoes are heavy, Bomie- times they are light, always they are not so heavy as those worn by the women. of Chicago and the Hast.

As to kinds of shoes. More women wear lace shoes than button. Why? Because it is easier to fit the instep with a lace shoe than with a button. A well-formed foot can wear either, but the lace is less try- ing. Now I have gotten to the care of shoes and there's the rub or the lack of rub that makes my last paragraphs criticism as well as fact. “How do St. Loulse women care for their shoes?" I asked Myers Swope. He had told me hests of other things and perhaps it's mean to quote him on just this one, but I can't resist. i-story 7’ rench—oftener they are military, | and quite often they are common sense. Shoe men say that the present style of shoes is sensible. They ad women wear them, not because they are sensible, but because they are stylish. Sounds rather mean, doesn’t it?

Women Neglect Their Footwear. “The great majority of women, both in St. Louis and other cities, are not careful of their shoes. We dealers have spoken of it many times. Of course, there are a number of exceptions. Many women are as particular as men, but the fact that their skirts partially hide their shoes has a tendency to make them neglectful.”’ Little bit hard, isn’t it?’ But neither you nor I could contradict the statement. I know but one woman who is absolutely She wears high lace black shoes. She never uses polish upon them, and yet they always shine softly ag women’s shoes should sh'ne. She tells me that she cares for them by rubbing them briskly whenever they are dusty with a soft velvet like cloth. Sounds easy, doesn't it? Character in Shoes. And if each of us did that, no one could |sty that we women are a species of pea- cock,, beautiful as to plumage, but hide- ous as to feet.

Smith lives at 108 Exchange avenue and his wife has been living with her mother, Mre. Margaret Simnions, at 111 Bowman avenue, East St. Louls.

Friends in Mexico and Friends in St. Louis May Make It Difficult for Police to Get Kratz if They Undertake to Do So. The announcement that bribery had been added to the offenses covered by the extradition treaty between Megico and the United States reached St. Louis Wednesday night, and was the subject of much com- ment at the Four Courts, in view of the effect it may have in the case of Churles Kratz, the fugitive former councilman, who has.until now found a safe haven in that republic. The important question about the treaty, whether it is retroactive, is rot stated, but officials are inclined to think that it 1s. The Mexi-an government was at first not fa- vorably disposed to the retroactive features, but it ‘s thought that this objection was overcome. Circuit Attorney Folk left Wednesday night for Kansas City, where he will take depositions in the Snyder case. Before leaving Mr. Folk expressed the belief that Kratz would be returned béfore a great while and be sent to trial Mr. Folk ex- pressed himself as satisfied that the treaty was retroactive. But with the treaty amended, there is not great confidence at the Four Courts that Kratz will be brought back without a struggle. Kratz is now even more strongly intrenched tn Mexico than he was two months ago, when Chief Desmond went to bring him back. He has plenty of money of his own, and there are those tn St. Louis who are anxious that he be not brought back, who will supply all the money that is needed if he can be kept away. Kratz has undoubtedly made friends in Mexico. Citizéns there do not consider the offense with which he is charged as being a hein- ous crime, and he will receive assistance there. While it is true that the Mevican police, acting in conjunction with the St. Louis police, have kept Kratz under surveillance, and are now thoroughly posted as to his whereabouts, it is not without the range of possibilities that he will lose himself in some other part of Mexico,-or even seek refuge in some other foreign country. Neither Chfef Kiely nor Chief Deemond will discuss the status of the Kratz case. They declare that they have nothing of- ficial on which to tase a statement, and they say that Mr. Folk has the care under contre] until the police here are asked to bring him back.

It ts gratifying to note the progress of negofiations for suf- ficient land around Forest Park to render it wholly unnecessary to encroach upon the wooded slopes of the park to obtain sites for the large buildings. This indicates a return to sanity among those who seemed to hold the view that the World's Fair com- pany had the right to utterly despeil and wreck Forest Park, regardlesp of public tntereste or rights. The Post-Dispatch is in hearty sympathy with all reasonable plans to assure a magnificent success for the World’s Fair; but is uncompromisingly opposed to the spoliation of Forest Park and the destruction of its trees and all its natural beauty. We do not believe it necessary or right to’ destroy the natural at- tractions of ths park. We believe tt would violate public right and would taxe away from the World’s Fair one of its greatest attractions. The people of St. Louis still have rights in the park. N¢ ordi- nance can confer the power of despoiling and ruining pubdiic property. No such purpose was contemplated in granting a por- tion of the park for the use of the World's Fair. We do not believe the citizens of St. Louis entrusted with the management of the park will consent to further wrecking of its natural beauties. But tf an attempt should be made to ruin the park, it will ba the duty of Mayor Wells and his associates in the city government to prevent it and to enforce the rights and protect the interests of the people. If the municipal officers fail of their duty, the people must take up the task. But the Post-Dispatch hopes for a settlement of all prob'’ems which will preserve that part of the park site not yet spotled for the benefit of the people of St. Louis. The park attractions must be saved. The numerous carbolic acid suicides may be one of the results of the restrictions upon the sale of poisons. Carbolic acid, being a& popular disinfectant, is easily obtained, and possibly many are ignorant of the intense suffering which it causes, = = i i REMARKABLE NEWS REPCRTS. Since the sudden and unlooked-for postponement of the coro- nation ceremonies, the Post-Dispatch has received fuller and more interesting news reports from London than any other St. Louls paper. The news of the King's iliness and the breaking up of the coronation festivities appeared in the Post-Dispatch Extra and was in the hands of the people an hour before any other paper came out. And the dally happenings, at the King’s bedside and in the United Kingdom, as a result of the stoppage of the coronativr, have been fully and promptly covered. This fs due to the fact that the Post-Dispatch had made news ‘arrangements, for the coronation period. that are the most re- markable ever entered into in modern newspaper enterprise. Among the distinguished and talented men ard women engaged to report the various phases of the coronation for the Post-Dis- patch were the Duke of Argyle, Sir Charles Beresford, Sir Thom- us Lipton, Sir Charles Dilke, Lady Randolph Churchill-West, lion.

They were discussing the thirteen theory in superstition, this party of congenial spirits in a Broadway cafe where the amber flowed—most of them having imbibed some- what copiously of the same. “IT don’t believe in it at all,’’ declared the American, who was an iconoclast. “It’s all bosh. The idea of a grown man refusing to sit at a table just because it happens that twelve others are there! Why, he ought to have his head pounded to get the simples out.” “As for me, I don’t exactly believe fn it,” salad the matter-of-fact Englishman, “though sometimes I know of things hap- péning that seem to verify it. Once I paid 18 cents fora cigar—the only one I ever bought at that price—and it made me death- ly sick. Then again, once tn a game of whist I had piayed out all my hand except a ten-spot and a tray—thirteen, you see— when a piece of plastering fell from the ceil- ing and made that bald spot you see on the side of my head. Still, those things might just have happened.” The gentleman with a Hibernian aspect had said nothing, being engaged in imbibing the conversation and other things of flu- ency; but at this point he brightened up and took the center of the stage. “Gen'lemen,” said he, “I thick—thorough- ly believe in the thick—thirteen thick— theory.” “What proof can you submit, Pat?’ the American demanded. “Proof? Why, in my own ‘sperience, gen’lemen. Tell ye the very day I was thick —thirteen years old I was tick—taken down with a fatal illness.” Let us all be glad that we did not pur- chase our coronation clothes early.

I. Drummond of St. Louis on Board His Steam Yacht, the White Heather, at the Finish Line. NEW LONDON, Conm, June 26.—The thousands of boating enthusiasts who spent the night in this old whaling town awak- ened today to find the weather conditions decidedly unpromising for the Yale-Harvard regatta. Daybreak brought a sky overcast and a drizzling rain. The cutlook was most dis- couraging. The early morning also devel- oped a high wind from the southwest, which fretted the waters of the Thames near its mouth in unpropitious style. At 9 o’cloc owever, conditions looked up a trifle. he sun broke through the clouds and finally disspelled most of them, although the wind was altogether too high “od aug those who wished the races rowed today. ae Roosevelt at. . the Finish Line. As the forenoon wore on, conditions at the finish line near the drawbridge improved slightly. Thé wind drew around from the southwest, and at 10:30 was coming briskly out of the northwest. This wind blew di- rectly across the course, and while the quarter from which it came promised bet- ‘ter things later in the day, the result of a westerly wind on the river was a sea dan- gerous from the standpoint of oarsmen in ah eight-oared shell. With conditious improving, the rowing ex- perts predicted good water in the after- noon, but the morning forecast of the local weather bureau was: “Occasional show- TODAY’S FOREIGN ENTRIES.

Four hours before the starting time of the first race there were over a score of large steam yachts, almost as many schooners ‘and shoals of little sloops and ailxiliary boats, while the drawbridge was ccnstantly swinging open to admit more. The count people came to New London by hundreds in the early forenoon and ther teams took up positions on the road along the river near the finish line. Usually they do not evince much interest in the races, but the possibility of getting a glimpse of the President or the members of his family was a great attraction. H. I. Drummond on His White Heather. Among the large craft clustered about the Dolphin were the steam yachts Narada, Isis, El Reba, Altair, Uvi Suranac, Say- onara, Duchess, Vergana, adena, Zoraya and the White Heather, the latter e largest of the fleet, with her owner, Drummond of St. Louis, on board. The sailing craft of the fleet included the Sachem, KBmerald, Montauk, Atalanta, May- ot ong Comanche, Isolde, Cachalot and Ca- chice. The Dolphin’s position was on the east side of the river, half a mile above the drawbridge. : As every yacht was ily decorated, not ut also with either only with signal flags blue or crimson, as her owner preferred, the picture from the windows of the trains arriving from the East was brilliant and inspiring. ~ Fiying Gini se i ae ad a ae Third race, the Englewood stakes, one miler Flora Pomona 122 W ain-a-Moinen Moabina ... .

Whatever of truth or justice there may be, oF may not be, in the general charges made against truets at the present time, it is certain that the newspapers have a specific cause of grievance againet them in the way that they have reduc advertising. the chief and largest source of news- paper income. A large number of staple panufac- tured products might be mentioned which in the days of open competition manufacturers found it necessary to advertise liberally, but they now, be- ing in combinations by themselves, contpolling thelr several markets, proceed on the principle that the public must buy thelr articles anyway, whether they advertise or not. This led to the re- cent observation of a well-known and observant poiltical leader that some day the press of the country, influenced solely by selfish considerations, would rise up against the trusts and crush them with the weight of an aroused pnbdliic opinio®.

Four selling races, a handicap and a purse race constitute thig afternoon’s program at the Fair Grounds. The most noticeable feature of the card is the size of the field, fourteen horses being entered in four events, The feature of the day will be the fourth race, a handicap at one and one-sixteenth vg vn of the seven horses in the handi- Cap seem to have an even-chance to win. Edgardo, Mynheer and Brewer Schorr loo the best, and Joe Doughty, with only 82 so entered at 9 ponoen. but as I have re- peatedly said, it {is not a question of weight with him, but condition. EDGARDO AND MYNHEER. Edgardo and Mynheer ran Monday last and each of them won their respective races. The former won at a mile and an such cracks as Ida Ledford and Cogswell, and ran the first mile in 1:42. Mynheer also ran his race in exactly the same time, but he won galloping by four lengths and could have won muc farther had he wished. He will carry one pound more today and Hdgardo will carry four less. dgardo won his race in a ne drive, which showed his meness and mina, but it is a_ well- own fact that horses like him rarely re- at themselves and I look for him to ose this afternoon.

FOR TODAY'S EVENTS Four Selling Races, a Handicap and a Purse Race Are on the Program at the Fair Grounds— Brewer Schorr Looks Good. Pathos, Maltoferin a Christine A. is the way I like them in this Yace. June 18 Pathos beat Christine A. with only a difference of one pound in his favor, and today with a difference of five pounds he should cer- tainy defeat her. I think Maltoferin is probably better than Christine A. and may give a eharp argument to Pathos for first place. Flora Levy, with only 8% poun up should be a prominent Contender all the way and may land the purse for Martin & Patton. Her last race was a very bad one, but as she has 20 pounds off today it may make a big difference with her. Her owners are always out for the money, so that those who back her will get an honest run. TABY TOSA’S CHANCE. I cannot go beyond Taby Tosa for the winner of the third race. The distance is farther than he has ever been asked to go, but he is such a strong finisher that I think he will have no trouble in annexing this race at a mile. The longer it is the better it will suit his style, and with the exception of Larry Wilt and Luattie Arrow he has nothing to beat. Larry Wilt has been doing so well in the last week that he must be given a good chance to win, but I hardly think he is good enough to give Taby Tosa eight pounds. One thing is sure about Larry—he can go the route without a break, and it is more or less of an experiment with Taby Tosa. On Little Arrow’s race Saturday he should run third. AUDIPHONE IS DUB. Audiphone ran a good race Tuesday with 102 pounds up rod will only carry 95 today. His last was really a brilliant race, and he Was beaten by a poor ride. With a good bo up today who will keep him in good posi- on until the stretch is cog Or | he should de 4 home in front of his field Little Master is the one Roy has to beat. This fellow ran a good third to Loone and Larry Wilt a few days ago and has 16 pouncs off that race today. Gilbert, with 06 pounds, will about be third. Old Swords- mati seems to be weighted out of it with 114, but he may win nevertheless. Poor old Locochee is a back number as far as racing !s concerned, and has no chance to win. The last race will be a good wottin About half a dozen of the 4 ongas have a fair chance for first money th ‘Gallan- trie, Nearest and Sweet Dream the best. Gallantrie was close up in «he last race hae ge Nn and with only 91 pounds up to- y should run well. She isa pretty shifty mare and with eos wolane up ig dange ous in any company. Sweet Dream collapsed at ioe end of six furlongs in her race Tues- Othe time between then and now is hardly long enough to warrant such an improve- ment in her condition as would make her win today and I must give precedence to Nearest over her. Poyntz, Oseetah, Deveric and Morris Volmer might as well remain in oer stables for all the chances they have € LONG-SHOT DAY. Yesterday was “long shot’’ day at the Fair Grounds. A 20 to 1, a SO tol, anda 100 to 1 came under the wire first, and the pikers and small betters were made cor- respondingly happy. Ben Lear commenced che fun by winning the first easily from the ‘‘good thing,”’ Wolfram. Pourquoi Pas was the favorite at 6 to 5, but a strong play on Wolfram forced his price down from 4 to 1 to 2 to 1 at t time. Wolfram'‘is a cast- off of the Bel- mont stable, but ran some pretty fair races before he came West, and was considered to be much superior to the field that op- posed him. The long delay at the post hurt his chances conaléerably, as he was prominent in all and generally fractious. When “ start was.made the favorite shot to the front, followed by Wolfram, with Ben Lear third and in a good position. Coming into the stretch Wolfram 4as- sumed command and looked like a winner, but teat, up” onpee the 60 1 shot, em, and he won Ben Lear, handily ie ay iJengins Woltrar m just managed to beat t avorite by a gre JIM AND THE PHOENICIAN.

If ever there was such a necessity, tt was in yesterday’s contest between the Cardinals and the Cincinnatis at League Park. Murphy, ordinarily the most reliable twirler in the club, was in a decay! oy dition. The disaffection spread an 4 Anal extended to the rest of the team. No elimination of Murp hy took oe however, and the ne weit on to its sa inevitable concil Murphy pitched tn. that exasperatin sort where you don't know ether it nce of mere inability on the part o the OF fender. Cincinnati descended on him earl and hard and kept up the descending bu ness straight thous to the bitter 10 t9 0 end. The outfield of the Cardina's save the expense mon for the management by wearing down the grass in the suburbs and some of the remarks made in small, still voices, while Murphy was being pound. ed to all fair points of the compass, had better be handed down to tradition by ‘other means than type. For once Eddie urphy was not popular in the suburban districts Donovan Was Treed. Donovan, however, was stumped, “treed.” Two of his pitchers, together with Frank de Haas Robison, were tn Cincinnati fight- ing to keep the club management from pay- ing the balance due on a gold brick. No names need be mentioned and no premfum will be offered for ieee | the name of the brick. Wicker is expected home Friday. The Cardinal captain in this emergency had no other course open to him than tu smile, look pleasant and a Murphy in the box. The O'Neil battery attraction was not to be wasted on @ game already lost. And so Murphy “stuck."’ There was one beauty about Murphy’s performance—he was consistent. You can always tell the cheap pitcher. He.will pitch like Bill Reidy for five innings and then, like Bill, too, he gets a bad inning. It was different wie Eddie, he was con- sistently bad through It seemed al most a shame to d sappoint him, he was so calm and peaceful and cherubic in the box. And to think that ‘“Saint’’ Jacob Beckley could so forget his celestial ties as to slam out four hits, one of them for a home run! It was unfraternal. ‘“‘Noodles’”’ Hahn has a crow coming to him. He did the pitehing for both sides, The particular slu re for the Cardinals who have been as oneshing the baseball world, performed marvelously again. Smoot, “Homer” Smoot, had a slugging record par excellence. On two occasions al the bat he slugged the south breeze six times; an another occasion he hit vertically for a marvelous distance, but was unfor- tunate enough to have the ball the hands of an infielder, and on h time at bat he closed with the fitting climax of a foul to the catcher.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. TRENTON, N. J., June 26.—Fifty cents was bigger than $200,000,000 for a couple of minutes today, Because of a demand for a plain, ordinary half dollar tha United States Steel Trust SUPREME ficient to enable Chief Justice Gummere to dig down into the judicia] ermine and pro- duce the silver disk. This was not an anarchist outbreak or “holdup” in the western outlaw fashion. The invader of the temple of qageice wore overalls and a jumper, and carried @ receipt beok in one hand, while the badge of an expfess company gleamed Sees from his cap, as if to say, “What's a Su- preme Court anyway? The chief justice had shipped a trunk from his home in Newark to this city in the local transfer office. He gave orders re fo receiving the trunk when it came Dy ain. “And,” said he, while the express clerk listened with awe to the judicial gravity of the tone, “let the driver stop at the statehouse and collect the half dollar from me.’’ Found His Way to the Courtroom. and the chief justice went on to thé State House. There he took his place at the head of his associates of the supreme bench, and such a little thing as 50 cents was forgotten while Richard V. Lindabury talked of mill- ions and millions of dollars. But if a chief justice has the privilege of forgetting the small things of éarth an éx- press man has not. The local driver to whom the trunk was given for delivery knew just one thing— somebody had to pay 50 cents before he de- livered that trunk. So he went to the State House. There he mounted the steps, leav- ing the trunk in his wagon, and accosted a doorkeéeper. “Hey,’’ he said, brusquely, “anybody hére named William S. Gummere®”’ | The shocking irreverence, not to sa Ig norance, expressed in the quay daz the doorkeeper. He was trying to find fit words for a réply when the expressman went on: “Oh, never mind; I'll find him if he’s in the building.”’ ; And into the sacred es of states- manship he strode, shouting over his shoulder to the doorkeeper: “Say, keep your eyé on that wagon, will you? Don't let anybody swipe the trunk.” Then he marched through the corridors, saying to various persons he met: “Gummere, where’s Gummere? Trunk for Ww. 8S. Gummere.”’ Somebody at last pointed to the door of the chamber in which that question of $200,000,000 was engaging the judicia} brain. Up to the Holy of Holiés. “Gummere! W. S. Gummere!” said the expressman, and a doorkeeper pointed to- ward the bench. Up toward the holy of holies strode the seeker Of the half dollar. Hé excused him- self politely to Mr. Lindabury when he broke into that man’s learned explana- tion of certain knotty papblems in the trust's case and was mounting the stéps ‘o where Mr. Gummere was siiting when a startled attendant sefzed him. “Stop,’’ gasped that functionary, wih visions of a visit from a Paterson an- archist. ‘‘What do you want?’ “Fifty cents, and want it quick.’’ “From whom?" The driver's finger pointed straight at the chief justic, and he said, with intense et ae ae m.”’ The attendant was about fo call for as- sistance to have the wares madman dragged away, when “he chiéf justice Inck 4 down, saw the badge on thé expressman’s cap, understood his errand, and said: ‘“‘One moment, Mr. Lindabury.” Then he raised the judicial robe until he reached the judicial trousers’ pocket and fished out a half dollar, and passed it down, | The expressman inspected the coin on both sides bit it carefully, nodded as if sat- isfied, pocketed it and stalked out. Then silver gave place to steel again. Your Watch Should Be Cleaned And oiled every 12 or 18 months to insure best results, and by placing it with the ex- pert watchmakers at Mermod & Jaccard’s, Broadway and Locust, you will have it put in perfect order at small cost.

SEARCHING FOR HIS WEALTH. ‘Prank Meade Cannot Find His Father’s Securities. NEW YORK, June 26.—Almost blind and destitute, yet having at least a competence if he could find where it is, is the incongru- ‘us situation In which Frank Meade, son of gt late well-known sporting man, Wil- could It is said that little Loris Scarsdale was the first show girl to venture forth as far as Olive street swinging a walking stick. In rapid succession did the score or more of Delmar’s de oid Yorogh tM hasten to the jeweler’s, returning to the fo:d properiy incumbered with tne latest foible essential to a show girl's proper deportment. It did not take long for the wide-awake girls of St. Louis to recognize the jaunty mien a girl ean maintain when she carries a bamboo cane and in less than a week the Delmar resort was one bewilderin mass of bamboo cane girls. In fact the fa advanced so rapidly as to make walking almost a menace, as the girls are hardi able to swing their bamboo canes with su ficient_accuracy or regard to the eyes and ears other pedestrians. Noticing this deficiency in the eager adoption of the fad, Gertrude onlay 08 the Delmar company has organized ali t Delmar girls into an ‘‘anti-bamboo-cane- carrying society,’’ whose resolution is ‘‘To urther desist in the inane mode of carry- ng bamboo canes perreving that a further spread of the fad m ht. cause those who indulge in it to use -~ nnocent fashion as a ween of frightening men from the gar- n.”’ The are: Conley rls who have manes the agreement aud Allen, Loris Scarsdale, Gertrude Mariette Carber, Lillian Maure, iti” 2 curs next Monday, the Delmar Opera com- on will present the tuneful opera for a week, commencing next Sunday night.

IT IS SAID TO EXCEL CORN me FLORIDA AND ALABAMA WILL BE BENEFICIARIES. If the Trials Prove Plan Is Good Fat- tener, Great Ranches Will Be Established to Cultivate It. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, June 2.—Plans that were first taken into consideration about a year ago have been developed in the last few mom hs to the point where Swift & Co. and others of the great packing establishments in Chi- cago have begun experiments on what may prove a revolution of the cat.le industry of the count The project ‘{nvolves the settlement of several hundred thousand acres of what is at present nearly valueless land in north- érn and northwesern Florida and southe n Alabama, the cultivation on @ large scale of the cassava root and its use in feeding cattle and hogs. If the plan develops as it is now in the minds of the leading packers, “he southern states will become the center of the cattle- raising industry. The cassava root was originally a prdu- uct of South America. Its value as a food product was long ag ago discovered by the natives, who made from f& tapioca. How- ever, it was only recently that the adapt- ability of the plant to Florida sofl was dis- covered and the great value of it as a food for cattle and hogs was demon rated. Re- cently the agricultura) colleges in the South took up the: study of the root, and de- clared it to possess wonderful properties as a food for animals and man. Southerners Proposed Plan. When the possibilities of the cassava be- came known to some of the prominent men of the South it was proposed to develop hat are at present unoccupied and prac tically waste tracts of land. Consequently a committee was formed, which, in conjunc- tion with “oe of the Louisville & Nash- ville road. are interested in boomin the lands BP ob no their ‘— of way, enter into negotiations with the Chicago packers, Preliminary correspondence was carried on for some time, and reports and investi- gations made. A few weeks ago the com- mittee had an audience with the packers in Chicago. and it is believed that the big concerns, particularly Swift & Co., were so impressed with the representations made that it was determined to begin a test of the plans. It was reported to the packers that fully 1,000,000 acres of land were available for the profect, much of it pene) Hee to the govern- ment and open for settlement free, under the homestead law. The experiments that were undertaken are said to have shown that an acre of this land would produce 20 tons of cassava to a cro which In turn would yield about 8000 poun s of tareky material. Corn produces about 4000 pounds of starch to the acre, or just one-half the cassava crop, and is said to cost much mofe to grow than cassava. Fur- thermore, the corn crops frequently fail from climatic conditions. while the, cassava stop is said to be practically certain, year in and year out. Economy fin the New Food. ee made with cattle fed on cas- va ere said to have shown a great ad- vantage in it over corn or grass fed. Live beef costs only 1.1 cents a pound to fatten by cassava. H.

It was polnted out by them that about twice as much starch to the acre could be grown through cassava than corn, and three times as much as by potatoes. It is hoped by them that the demonstration will be made so clearly as to carry with it a revolution of the starch-making industry. It is stated that arrangements are now being made for the accommodation of a considerable number of cattle to be shipped from the stockyards here to northern Flor- ida, to be fed on cassava root. The results of the fattening process will be compared with similar work in the West, regarding which the cenditions and cost are already definitely known.
