"A MORAL CESSPOOL ''
PROTEST AGAINST CERTAIN SHOWS
 ON THE CURVE.
Gossip Rs to Their Character Results In Assurances by SherIm That He Will Ineestigate-ser-
 mon By Dr. Anderson.

Certain attractions on '"rhe Curve" at the State Fair. about which there has been considerable gossip. was the basis last night of a declaration by Dr. Neal L. Anderson. pastor of the Central Pres- byteria9 Church. that part of the fair was "a moral cesspool."
 As result of gossip about these shows, a prominent church member went to Sheriff Hood, telling him that the shows in question were so broad that they constituted a violation of the law. Sheriff Hood assured the church member that he would make an fnves- tigtaion of the gossip and that if he found that four of the attractions were as reported he would put stop to them.
 According to the gossip among church members there are four attrac- tions. which have brought tNe critl- cism upon The Curve." No complaint is made of the other attractions and they are generally endorsed.
 Tn fact it is said that some of the show proprietors have complained about the character of entertainment given by a few attractions, declaring that it hurt their own attractions and affected the general support of "The Curve" One or two of the concession aries, it is said, made vigorous protest Saturday as to the nature of the shows. which they claimed was hurting the

and the business of

standing and the business of The Curve."
 The gossip, on which all this is based names only four attractions. two of which are tent shows, one where East ern dances are given and another in which the attraction is company of burlesquers.
 Unfavorable criticism is in this gos- sip levelled at two platform shows. in which the spectators stand upon plat performers in pit.
 Before beginning his sermon yester- day evening Dr. Anderson warned, the parents of his church to keep their children away from certain resorts at the State Fair.
 Dr. Anderson said he had received report yesterday morning from an- other minister that a boy IA years old who was at the fair grounds Saturday told his mother that he saw shows on The Curve" that shocked his moral senses.
 Taking this incident as a basis for his remarks. pr. Anderson criticised the management of the fair for permit ting this moral cesspool" in the com munity and pleaded with parents of his congregation to keep their children away from these places.
 Incidentally .Dr. Anderson spoke of the sacred concerts" at the fair grounds yesterday which he said were a mockery to Christianity He said he felt 1t his duty as a ministeZ, of 1.-the Gospel to bring these things to

St. Louis. Oct. 27.--Conhdence that action involving the issuance of clear ing house certificates would hold finan- ciaI matters in check until complete readjustment could be made. was the prevailing sentiment among the lead- Ing bankers of St. Louis today and the prediction was made that the coming week would be better from a banking standpoint than the last has been.
