ST. LOUIS VOTES
ON FREE BRIDGE

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Nov. 6.-With
municipal employees relieved of their
Work for the day and many other
workers similarly freed from their
routine duties through holiday proc
lamation by Mayor Kiel, st. Louis
today turned out to vote on pro-
posal to issue bonds for $2,750,0O0 to
obtain funds for the completion of
the free bridge over the Mississippi
river. The bridge, started in 1906,
with $3,500,000 obtained from bond
issue now spans the river, but term
mates on the Illinois side $50 feet
above the ground, due to expiration
of the original fund. Except for its
lack of adequate terminal on the Hi
nois side the span has been declared
to be one of the most modern and
substantial in the world. On it, since
the abandonment of the construction,
taxpayers have been paying thou
sands of dollars year as interest on
the bonds.
The Eads' bridge and the Mer-
chants bridge, two privately owned
spans crossing the river at st. Louis
are the property of fifteen railroads
entering the city, having passed into
the roads hands 40 years ago. To
an arbitrary tax of $4 ton on al
freight into st. Louis from points
east of the Mississippi, st. Louis
blames the growth of East st. Louis
Venice, Granite City and Madison
These cities, with factories worth
many millions of dollars and thriv'
| ing industries have derived theii
growth, it is claimed, from the de-
fensive action of shippers who stop
ped their shipments east of the river
rather than pay the arbitrary"
Recent supreme court decisions re-
moved the arbitrary charge from al
freight except that originating within
100 miles Of the bridges.

TEXANS GETTING RID
OF MEXICAN AGITAT0RS

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Nov. c.
Listed as undesirable aliens" by the
federal department of justice today
are names of many Mexicans promi-
nent in the days of Diaz and Huerta.
This city has always been largely
Mexican and here many revolutionary
plots have been Matched. The latest
break between Villa and Carranza re-
suited in unusual activity in local
Mexican circles. Then came the an
nouncement that federal agants were
determined to resort to deportation
and extradition of all Mexican refu-
gees believed to be aiding either by
counsel or money in sewing revolu-
tionary seeds in Mexico.
A general exodus followed and to-
day the gathering places heretofore
thronged with one-time prominent
Mexicans were noticeably quiet. DR.
Urrutia, former Huerta cabinet mem
ber, has left the city. Several 9TH
ers are known to have purchased
tickets for out of Texas points. A
cleanup in Ell Paso is also in prog
ress. The report that the followers
Of Carranza were likely to demand
the extradition of those who pledged
allegiance to Huerta and were sus-
pected of connection with executions
in Mexico City hastened the depart
ure of several prominent Mexicans.

Eleven states are represented at the
meeting of the Association OF West

gan at the Colorado Agricultural col
lego today. The delegates were from
IL states west of Nebraska and the
Dakotas. The same association re-
Gently met in Denver to consider unit
ed action under the Smith-Lever act.
The program is under the super
vision of President Lory of the Colo
RADIO Agricultural college. The ses-
sions will all be purely for business
purposes but it is likely that the local
business men will be the hosts at a
series of auto drives for the visiting
delegates over the Poudre valley.
One Of the principal topics to be
discussed by the delegates is that OF
making the short courses in all ag-
ricultural schools more effective. The
federal department of agriculture has
been asked to send speakers to al
the short courses conducted in tbs
II states, to deliver lectures on top
| les of interest to future farmers. Th'
association will try to arrange som'
schedule whereby these men from thu
national capital may make the cir
cult.
The second important topic is
plan whereby the courses of the vari
GUS schools may be co-ordinates. i
a committee Of the association can b.
named to lay out courses of study 81
that they will be much alike, it j
believed a most effective piece o
work will have been achieved.

FAMOUS REVOLUTIONARY
LEADER BACK IN RUSSIA

PETROGRAD, Nov. 5.-Vladimir
Bourtzeff, the famous revolutionary
leader, has returned to Russia, al
though no political amnesty has been
granted, in order to offer his SER
vices to the czar. Such is the news
that has excited Nihilist circles, and
which provides perhaps the most dra-
matte example of the way in which
the war has drawn all classes in Rus
sa together.
Bourtzeff was exiled to Siberia in
1888, but escaped and settled first in
Paris and then in Switzerland, whence
he was expelled by the Swiss gov
ernment. He made several unsuccess-
full attempts to return to Russia, and
eventually started revolutionary
journal in London called the will Of
the People" He was arrested by the
British police, at the instance of the
Russian embassy, and sentenced to 1S
months Imprisonment for an article
which it was alleged contained an in
dictment to murder the czar.
On his release he went to Paris,
and during the brief era of consti-
Etutional government in 1905 he lived
in Petrograd. Two years later he
was compelled to fly to Paris, and
it was while living there that he
startled the world by the exposure
of the notorious police spy and agent
provacateur, Azeff, Harting and 9TH
ers. He published Journal "The Fu-
ture" in Paris, and one Of his great
est coups was the publication Of =
copy of the secret MS journal which
daily reports to the czar the activi-
ties of the secret police.

will bring regeneration to Russia,
that there will be no longer any room
for political reaction, and that the

AMERICAN HOSPITAL
Is BEST IN FRANCE
(By VIM. PHILIP sIMMs.)

PARIS, Oct. 19.-(By Mail to New
York. THE American hospital here,
where wounded soldiers of all the ma
tionalities are taken care of, is ad-
mittedly the best military hospital
in France.
Located in Neuilly, just outside the
walls of Paris, in one of the prettiest
residence districts about the city, this
institution, at the head of which is
Ambassador Myion I. Herrick and a
group Of millionaire Americans, is
taking care of some 400 patients.
There are French and English, Ger
mans and Austrians, Algerians, Hin
docs and Senegalese, and each pa
tient declares he has drawn the grand
prize in the lottery of hospitals
confess frankly that l visited the
hospital expecting to see the fad of a
group of rich citizens of the United
States residents in Paris. l expected
to see certain amount of good being
done, Of course, but after the fashion
| of the dilettants. l expected to find
a mice" place run in mice" way
where mice" soldiers, more or less
wounded, were being treated by
nice" doctors in the incest way pos
sible. In short, expected to find a
plaything of the idle rich-that is the
charge most often made against the
Americans residing in Paris-a new
toy. an amusement of kind that is
different.
What l really found was the unex-
pected. ] was led through one Of the
most up-to-the- minute hospitals ex-
i tant, conducted on most modern lines,
by the most businesslike of men. And
the patients are plain soldiers, the
unwashed campaigners of all the arm
les, officers and men getting precise
ly the same care.
The American ambulance is the
name given this annex to the regular
American hospital. 1t is in q new
school building which the government
took over ut the beginning of the war.
The American colony here asked that
it be turned over to them for use Of
a hospital, all expenses to be paid by
Americans; the government acquiesc-
ed.
Five weeks ago the building was
not quite finished. Brick and mortar
and debris were everywhere. The win
dows had not been put in; disc rider
reigned. Now the establishment is
