RUBBER BALLS
ARE UNDER BAN

Richard flanagan, probation officer
OF the Juvenile court, has declared
war against the rubber ball. He
says IL is a dangerous plaything for
children living In Detroit and other
cities. the streets OF which are TEEN
ing with automobiles. This is the
reason why:
flanagan was driving in a motor
car at Alfred and Brush-sts. Mon
day morning. when a child playing
with ball, lost control of the
sphere, and permitted It to bound
against tho radiatof OF the automo-
bile in which the probation officer
was riding.
The ball bounced off the radia-
ter explained flanagan. and struck
that child square in the face. II
knocked the youngster down. and
II he had been in the road, instead
of on the sidewalk, ne certainly
would have been hurt"

WASHINGTON, May l0.-German
Ambassador Won bernstorff called
at the state department today with
an expression Of deep regret for the
loss or American lives in connection
with the Lusitania's destruction.
Following his departure, Secretary
Bryan issued the following state
ment.
The German ambassador called
at the state department and ex-
pressed his deep regret that the
events OF the war had led to the
loss OF so many American lives"
The department had not yet re-
ceiyed the message which Berlin
cables SAID had been forwarded by
the kaiser's foreign Office, conveying
its regret to the United States and
placing responsibility for the disas-
ter to Americans upon Great Britain.
AS 10 his contemplated course. the
president had made ia statement, so
far as known. even 10 his closest ad-
Yisers
The commonest prediction was
that the administration would ask
Germany for indemnity and assur-
ances that such incidents as that OF
the Lusitania. involving American
lives and property, would not be re-
peated.
The statement attributed to Ger
man newspapers to the effect that
money would satisfy the United

Of the Illinois Traction Company,
while here today was urged by Mayor
Cecil NJ. Thomas and the Commercial
Club of jefferson City to build an in
terurban railway between here and
Columbia. This project has been long
agitated and was onc surveyed and
fell through. Mckinley in a letter TO
Mayor Thomas intimated that he had
the matter under consideration. The
distance is thirty-fve miles. McKin-
ley corporations own here the electric
light plant and the street railway and
bridge property. His street car sys-
tenn now extends into Galloway Coun-
ty as far as North Jefferson.
When this project was last broach-
ed to Mckinley he declared the Mis-
souri, statute prohibiting foreign cor
porations from holding to exceed 10

poratin acted virtually as a bar to the
development of an interurban system
