SALVATION ARMY SENDS HALF
OF COLLECTIONS OUT OF U. S.
The Curran legislative commission
did not get very far in its probe of
the Salvation Army yesterday after
noon.
Commander Thomas EstiIl, in
charge of the Army in the western
states, was summoned before the
commission, chiefly because the COM
mission was curious about what was
done with the Army Christmas col
lections.
Estin could not tell them much
about it, but he did make the rather
startling admission that $29,163 of
the money collected by the Salvation
Army in America last year had been
sent our of America
The proportionate amount Of this
can be gagged by Estills sworn
statement that the Army's collections
in the western states for the same
year only amounted to $28,967. On
that basis, the Army apparently sends
about SO per cent Of the money it
collects out Of America.
Estil said his salary was $35 a
week, and that the salary of Sneeton,
financial secretary for the western
states, was only $27.50.
Mary Bartelme, judge of the girls
division of the Juvenile Court, was
summoned to appear before the COM
mission today.
The commission wants to find out
what happens to girls farmed out
under the direction of the Juvenile
Court.
The Rev. Mr.. Schlecte, superin-
tendent of the Chicago Knderfreund
and the Peoria Kinderheim, said that
the using of the funds of the former
for the latter by him, had been due
to ignorance Of the law.

WRESTLING POLICEMAN" PUT
TWO COPS IN THE HOSPITAL

Major Funkhouser started a
school of instruction for cops. In the
last three days it has been turned
into what one might call breaking
in cops for the hospital" :
Major Funkhouser wanted a man
to teach his class of cops how to
wrestle~ John ]. Rooney, a police
man, and formerly professional
wrestler, was sent out to Funkhouser
to teach the class of cops how to
wrestle.
For a time Rooney was easy with
the cops. Then he picked out An
drew Harra from Kensington avenue
station for a real tussle. Harra and
Rooney started in for Harra's first
lesson. Then Harra was escorted
from the school of instruction to the
Cook County ambulance, which rush
ed him to County Hospital where
physicians pronounced him seriously
injured.
Funkhouser didn't know this.
Neither did Eugene A. Barry of Hyde
Park station. He was the second vic
tim Of Rooney's wrestling. He was

COLONEL COCKTAILS TO REDUCE
WORKING FORCE LATTER
PART OF AUGUST.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 4.-work OIL
the Panama Canal is being rushed TO-
day with all possible speed, and It is
now certain that the big waterway
to the Pacific can be opened by the
latter part of September II necessary
This hurry TO complete the work is
being done under confidential orders
from the administration to get the
Job completed as soon as possible.
In a report to the administration,
which is also confidential, Colonel
Goethals says that the work is pro
crossing as rapidly as possible and
that the reduction of the working
force will begin the latter part of this
month.
This action is taken here to mean
that President Wilson and his ad.
visers are preparing for any trouble
that may arise out OF the Mexican
situation. With the Panama Canal
open the Atlantic fleet could be
rushed through to the Western ocean
In short order and used anywhere
along the coast that seemed wise.
Another significant fact Is that the
Army Aviation Corps is making siren
uous efforts TO get itself into a ser.
viceable condition. This pair OF the
war equipment Is sadly run down and
needs a thorough tuning up. Accord.
ingly orders have been issued tina; all
apparatus be got into first.class
shape and that three new machines
be purchased at once.
In the event that the United States
determines to intervene in Mexico the
aeroplane squad would be of prime
Importance, for It could fly over the
Mexican borders and break up the
camps OF thousands of guerillas who
infest the southern republic. 1t is
said that the new aeroplanes will be
delivered within a month.
Despite the fact that Senators and
Representatives are overwhelmed with
letters and kilograms demanding that
the United States take some action TO
protect Americans In Mexico. Presi.
dent Wilson stands firm not to inter.
