TO SIZE UP THE DAMAGE.

From the headquarters Of the Pro
gressive Republican league are being
sent out circulars commenting on the
recent primary election, and suggest
ing the importance Of keeping a stiff
upper lip. AS a leans to the latter
M a meeting is to be held at Bis
marck on Tuesday in order to go ov-
er the situation, size up the results
and lay plans for the future. Among
other things to be discussed is whe,h-
er or not the league shall abide by
the result of h primary and support
the ticket there nominated, or adopt
some other course
AS the facts are so manifestly
against them. the officers canno claim
ridicule from the very people whom
they are seeking to hold in line. But
an effort is made to seek grains Of
comfort from among the immense
bulk Of chaff. The faithful are assur-
ed that while the league did not sue
progressive republicans have been
nominated for secretary Of state, state
treasurer and insurance commission
er, and an entire progressive railroad
commission has been renominated.
There are some amusing features
about these statements. After cleo
ton the committee processes satisfac-
ton with the senatorial nomination.
Before election, although it was in
the business of putting up a slate and
instructing the voters, it side-stepped
the senatorial question with great en-
thusiasm and industry. The same
claim would doubtless have beer made
been nominated. The present secre-
tary of state and insurance commits
sioner were not opposed. No faction
al issue was raised concerning them.
They were renominatcd because they
are well known, popular and capable,
and certainly not because Of any en-
dorsement which they received from
the slate makers. Mr.. Steen. the. sue
cessful candidate for treasurer, is now
accepted as a Progressive Republican
since he has been nominated. Be-
fore the primary it was different. The
committee was not then prepared to
give him its distinguished endorse
ment.
Reference has formerly been made
to the expressed desire of the rail
road commissioners that there should
be no slate making. We understand
that tho cit1otic, ",c 1;.o,,,..a ,.:.l.

meeting-informal. and that the man
ager Of the leagues campaign was ac-
quainted with some views which are
understood to be entertained around
the offices Of the railway commission.
The circular above referred to ure-
ed attendance at the forthcoming
meeting, that plans ma be laid for
the campaign of two years hence,
which, the reader is reminded, will
include the election of presidential
electors. 1t is stated thai the oppo-
sition has already selected its candi-
dates. If this is true. n the officers
of the league know it, they owe it to
their members to publish the names
or the candidates who nave beer Sc
lected for a couple of years hence.
and tell by whom they were selected.
AS a matter Of fact, the executive
committee Of the Progressive Repub-
lican league is the only political ma
chine In the state which has selected
candidates for the late primary, and
its w circular shows that it is still
at the same game.

HUMANITY TAUGHT
BY THE RED CROSS
David Lloyd George Tells of Its
influence on the Men
i'm the Trenches.
by Gable to The Tribune

London, Dec. Is. 49, David Lloyd
George, Chancellor of the Exchequer,
has contributed a message to the
Christmas number OF "The Methodist
Times" issued to-day, in which he
says: ,
II recently visited one OF the battle
fields in France. ! saw village being
shelled by German guns. A prisoner
Of war was Just being brought into the
French lines. He was IN a motor car
under guard He was wounded and
looked Ill and in pain. The French
general with whom | had gone to the
front went up to the wounded Prusslan
and told him he need not worry, as he
would be taken straight to hospital
and looked after as if he were one OF
our own men.
"The Prussian replied: we treated
YOUR wounded in exactly the same way.
at was a curious rivalry under these
conditions. for you could hear the
vhizz of German shells and the shud-
dering crack with which they exploded
dealing out death and destruction in
the French trenches close by. We were
in sight of a powerful French battery
which was preparing 20 send its deadly
messengers into the Prussian ranks a
little further on.
81 marvelled that this exhibition OF
good will among men who were sworn
foes should be possible amid such sur
roundings, until my eyes happened tc
wander down a lane, where ! saw 9
long row Of wagons, each marked with
a great Red Cross. Then | knew who
had taught these brave men the lessor
of humanity that will gradually anC
surely overthrow the reign of hate
Christ has not died in vain"

.PARLAGHY HORSES
GET A REPRIEVE
Steeds of Princess, Held for
Riding Academy Claim, Not
To Be Sold for Deh.

Developments yesterday indicated
that the horses owned by Princess
Lwoff- Parlaghy. WHO left her apart
ments in the Hotel Plaza last Satur-
day. will not be sold TO satisfy the
claim CT Durland's Riding Academy
against the princess.
J. Campbell Thompson, attorney for
the Durland company, said last night
that he had received a communication
from former Representative William ).
Bennett. attorney for the princess, and
that on Mr.. Bennet's representations
the sale had been postponed for one
week and that it is likely the matter
will be adjusted within that time.
Durland's claim against the princess
amounts 70 about $500, Mr.. Thompson
said. He also stated that the princess
had been in difficulties with Durland's
during the spring of this year and that
Mr.. Bennett succeeded in arranging
matters at that time.
Managers of the Plaza Hotel profess
to be absolutely ignorant of the where
abouts of the princess. Most OF her
effects are said to be still in the pos
session of the hotel, but no steps have
been taken toward disposition CT
them.
Her mail is uncalled for and the
management stated that no representa-
tive of the princess had put in an APP
pearance. The proposed sale OF Deer

.RIDDER CONCERN IN
RECEIVERS HANDS
Typesetting Machine Co.
Does More Business, but
War Cuts Cash Supply.

The International Typesetting Ma
chine Company, Of which Herman Rid
der is president, was placed yesterday
in the hands of Erskine Hewitt as re-
ceiver after & struggle against bad
business conditions, largely due. it is
said. to the war. Judge Hough made
the appointment In the federal cour.
as the result of an equity suit brought
by the International Banking Corpora
tion and the Central Trust Savings
Company, whose claims total sci ,456.
The concern manufactures and sells
a machine known as the lntertype. Ii
has an authorized capital of $4,000, 900,
of which there is 100000 preferred
stock outstanding and S2,997 800 COM
mon. II also has outstanding $1,000
900 in first mortgage gold bonds, and
an authorized issue of 100000 of
gold notes. OF which $4,000 are out
standing.
Mr.. Ridder last night said the com
pany was solvent, but was suffering
from difficulties due TO temporary
causes which have made a receivership
advisable for the protection of all con-
cerned.
"Since the outbreak Of the war;" Mr..
Ridder said. "the company has been
confronted with q difficult situation.
During the last year il has sold more
than twice as many machines as were
sold in any preceding year. and during
the last few months I has sold more
new machines than any other manu-
facturer. This rapidly increasing sale,
however, has produced a shortage OF
working capital.
Twenty per cent Of our output OF
machines had previously been exported
and sold abroad. The European mar
ket had been a cash market. But the
American purchasers, on account OF
the general financial conditions, have
OF been able to pay cash, and the con-
pany has been obliged to sell its ma
chimes on extended time payments.
"Such a system necessitates eXpen-
sve financing, and every new machine
/ sold has depleted the amount OF ready
working capital, so that the company

AT SO She BECS AID
FIRST Time in LIFE
1T Can't Be for Long Says
Woman Who TrampS
90 Blocks i'm Cold.

One of the three thousand people
who besieged the Salvation Army head
quarters early yesterday morning hunt
ing for food and warmth was woman
who tOttered for a moment and then
leaned against the door jamb. A cap
tain led her inside and she sank heavi-
ly into a chair.
"Tm lightweight years DID, she
said 81 never asked for charity before.
Il won't be tina. III trouble you for
long, for I'm an ola woman. But II
YOU can give me something 10 eat, II

room, where I've been so long, and l
won't have to go to the almshouse."
This woman had walked 10 14th st.
from 112th ST., stopping IN various
doorways, she said, TO rest and shelter
from the cold. Her clothes were old
and had been torn in many places, but
had been neatly patched. When the
captain asked her how she had strug-
gled so far to get aid she said simply:
81 don't know; | suppose it's my
unconquerable will"
There were so many crowdng about
the doors that some had to be turned
away. Salvation Army officers picked
out those who needed help most, these
chiefly being the mothers with thin
unnourished babies in their arms, the
very old and very hungry. Long lines
formed in both 18th and l4th SITS.
In the forefront Of the line in 18th
st. was a woman carrying a baby. The
woman was thin and wan. Her cheek
bones were prominent, her face bag
gard and drawn. The bsby's feet were
wrapped in rags. Behind her was q
ten-year-old boy, shivering with cold
He said he had been out since .
