CHAPTER XII.
The Survival az the Elt+est


A short, thick old man, gray-beard-
ed and puff-eyed and loaded with enor-
nous jewels, met Gail, Lucille and
Arly. Ted Teasdale and Rev. Smith
Boyd, at the foot of the subway stairs,
and introduced himself with smiling
ease as Tim German, beaming with
much pride in his widespread fame.
"Mr. Allison couldn't be here" ex-
planned Tim, leading the way to the
brightly lighted private car. Were
to pick him up at Hoadley park. Miss

The side doors slid open as they ap-
preached. and they entered the car
peted and draped car, furnished with
wicker chairs and well-stocked buff
fet. In the forward compartment were
three responsible-looking men and a
motorman, and one Of the respon-
sibles, a fat gentleman who did not
seem to care how his clothes looked,
leaned into the parlor.
"All ready?" he inquired, with an
air of concealing a secret impression
that women had no business here.
Tim German, who had carefully seen
to it that he had seat between Gail
and Arly, touched Gail on the glove.
Ready, thank you," she replied,
glancing brightly at the loosely ar
rayed fat man, and she could see that
Immediately portion of that secret
impression was removed.
With an easy glide, which increased
with surprising rapidity into express
speed, the car slid into the long, glis-
tening tunnel, still moist with the
odors of building.
Tim German had adroitly blocked
Gail into a corner, and was holding
her attention.

boys In New York." he enthusiast

SENATOR SMITH
CALLED TO KY.

DOUGLAS, Ariz., Oct. 15.-Sena- tor Mark Smith, who had been in San Francisco to attend the Panama-Pa- cific exposition, has written Geo. H. Kelly, editor of the Daily Information al saying that he was just in receipt of telegram from his neice amour cing the serious illness of his brother at Cynthiana, Ky, his old home,. and asking him to come at once. Senator Smith had reached Los Angeles on his way to Arizona, where he expected to visit with his friends at home for 3 month. After visiting the eXpositio ne had been at Murietta Springs Cal |, seeking relief from a severe attack C. rheumatism from which he has now recovered.
 Following is an extract from the letter of Senator Smith:
 T expected to come home at once, and meet the people and visit my friends for at least a, month; but on arrival I was handed a telegram from was seriously i'll and requested me to come at once to Kentucky and be of what service or comfort I could to him. Of course I will go to him at once, however much my disappoint- ment may be in this hope I had of spending some time at home. I hope you and all my friends are we'll ana prosperous and happier than I am"
 The news of the illness of the bro- ther of Senator Smith and therefore the impossibility of his visit to Ari- zona at this time will be received with sincere regret in Douglas.

NOT WANTED AS
 RUNNING MATE
Vice President Says Docs Not Be-
 lieVe President Made Statement Credited to Him By a c2ast Paper

PHOENIX, Ariz., Oct. 14.-That President Wilson, credited with say ing he did not want Vice-Pre3ident Marshall for a running mate in the 1916 election, did not make the state ment is the belief of MT. Marshall
 An exclusive dispatch,' published in coast paper to that effect is look ed upon as absurd and ridiculous by the e-president, who said yesterday that he was confident the president did not say any such thing. In the Washington dispatch MT. Wilson is quoted as saying it is 'funlucky to run the same team twice." while the author Of the message insinuates that there is marked co1dness between the president and the vice president ''The real reason being, according to the report, is that MT. Marshall re- fused to stand hitched on several the administration measures, notably the rivers and harbors bill."
 That the latest word from the cap- ital is merely the invention of a re- porter is MT. MarshalPs opinion.
 q don't believe the president said any such thing" he said yesterday My attitude is well known: I never was a candidate for any office in my life. I am for the president for re- nomination and for the convention to nominate the vice-president. If there is any coolness between the president of the United States and my self, I have never observed it. There has never been suggestion that was not heartily in favor of his policies.
 Congressman Carl Hayden is also of the belief that the statement is- sued from Washington was unauthor- ized by the president.
 T do not believe it," he declared emphatically.
 ''The general impression in Wash ington is that the relations existing between thee hief executive and the vice-president are most friendly The dispatch in all probability origin ated from some interested in riv- CTS and harbors legislation. The president did not feel badly that it failed in passage. He was indiffer- ent, just as the vice-president was.

I MT. Anderson evidently realizes how distasteful the subject is to Sec retary Redfeld, when he states: While it is not competent to discuss in consular report the causes of cir cumstances in the United States which have brought about the wind ing up of the business of this company on the Pacific, there are certain prac- tical and immediate results of the change which must be taken into con- sideration by American business men interested in the trade in the Orient in any way or to any degree, and, in- deed, by all interests concerned in American trade abroad in general"
 The consul general names three Japanese lines, all heavily subsidized by their government, which are mak- ing every effort to seize the trade of this American company as it relin- quishes it's business. He calls atten- tion to the fact that the Robert Dollar line has given up the run from Unit ed States to China, and the routing of the one vessel operated by the Great Northern Company has been changed to Canada. He then recalls the fact that during the acute tonnage short age of last spring the Japanese gov eminent ordered the Japanese lines i Gall subsidized) to take freight during certain months from Japanese ports only, thus serving Japanese indus tries and Japanese shippers in pre- ference to other shippers in the Far East, and, of course, without any reference to American interests in the premises, and remarks that If, when the strain on freight facilities actually is realized this autumn, the Japanese government adopts the same policy with respect to Japan csc cargo and Japanese products it adopted the past spring and sum- mer, namely, to confine the cargo space offerings in all ships of Japan csc lines to Japanese ports until such ports are fully served, there will be no cargo whatever taken to the west coast of the United States from Hong kong and South China generally from the Philippines, North China, or from India and the East Indies by usual trans-shipment at Hongkong." And our Chinese export trade will be par alyzed.
 It is becoming daily more evident lthat the enactment of the seamen's law was a frame-up, and that Secre- tary McAdoo favored it knowing it would drive American lines out of business, and form a basis for urging the passage of his (and the presi- deut's) socialistic ship purchase bill.

AME ERIC.ANS LOSE JOBS BECAUSE . r.
 IF LAW
Forced Out by Japanese Who Took Over Vessels of Pacific Mail Steam ship Company.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.-When the press reported some months ago eAhat the Pacific Mail Steamship Com pany was going out of business be- cause of the La Toilette Seamen's law passed by the last democratic congress, to take effect November 4, next, certain administration officials declared this was a huge bluff on the part of that company, intended solely tor political effect.
 A report of Consul General George F. Anderson, Hongkong, China, re- -cen1ly made public, indicates that the Pacific Mail company was in deadly earnest. The five American vessels known as the trans-Pacific fleet, have been disposed of. Their tonnage az .gregates a trife over 100000, which Soc etary Redfield should deduct from his next report on the growth of the American merchant marine, if he does not wish to distort the truth.
 General Anderson goes on to say: -sThe sale of the vessels of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, engaged in the trans-Pacific service has precipi: lated a crisis in the carrying trade of the Far East as related to trans-Pa- cifc service which is of the greatest possible practical importance to Am erican exporters and importers inter ested in Far Eastern trade. The per sonnel of the staffs in various offices have been given notice of non-employ, ment and the Americans employed in various offices have been givensimilar notice, with an indication of what steamers they are to take for their re- turn to the United States and notice of no employment when they reach the United States In Hongkong the offices of the company are to be clos ed and the lease of an exceptionally favorable office location has been talk en over by the Nippon Yusen Kaisha, a competing Japanese company. The business of the company, in short, is being wound up Immediately" Does that look like bluff?

Student of One Day Loses Life in
Melee With Sophs - Heart
Trouble Pronounced Cause.

PRINCETON, n. J.. Sept. 25.-
Stockton Wells of Madison, a fresh
man OF one day. was killed Friday
afternoon in the annual gym rush.
He was announced dead after ply
sicians had worked over him with a
pulmotOr for one hour and 40 min
uteS. They decided that death had
been caused by heart trouble aggra-
waited by the excitement of the melee.
After the disaster Representatives of
the four classes met and decided TO
abolish the remainder of the fall
rushes. This will probably result in
their permanent prohibition.
The gym rush" inaugurates the
opening of college here and was par
ticipated in by 500 sOphOmOres and
375 freshmen. The former clad in
black jerseys took their places out
side the gym. prepared TO ward of
the attacks of the first year men.
The latter sought to enter the GUILD
ing. hold their first class meeting and
elect class officers for the year.
Wells mother, a widow. was mott
fed of his death and came here Fri
day night. She said that serious sick
ness had weakened her son since
childhood. preying particularly upon
his heart The only injury Wells sus-
tanned in the rush was a slight
abrasion upon the hip.
