Loeb Refuses to Consider Candi-
 dates Over the Telephone

New York, July 26.--Young women who had at least pleasant voices be- gan early yesterday morning calling up Arthur M. Loeb, the head of the engineering and contracting firm of Arthur M. Loeb, who on Monday asked the papers to help him find a wife, to propose to the young engi- neer and contractor. MT. Loeb did not so to his rooms in the Broadway Central hotel during the day, and so he had no chance to examine the let ters Of proposal that are accommodating there.
 "I expect to get a suitable wife out of this vcnture" said MT. Loeb. Be sides answering his telephone he is kept busy convincing his relatives and friends that he is really serious in his desire for a COmpanlonable wife. He has also to explain that he does not consider his method of ob taining one out of the ordinary.
 ''Is this MT. Loeb?" said a voice oyer the telephone.
 The wife seeker admitted his iden tity
 "I am a brunette" the voice con- tinued, and I am sure that l would please you. Of course, I do not know whether you would consider me good looking but some of my friends do. l would make @ good wife and l love to travel especially in South America where I understand you do business Please may I call on you"
 You may write," said MT. Loeb.
 This is a sample of some dozen telephone messages received during the day and though each varied in de- tail the speakers agreed that they would make excellent wives, MT. Loeb mOdestly refused to argue the point, but he told each applicant to write.
 Those who are selected for per- sonal interview will have to pass an examination before two women, friends of the husband-tO-be who have been selected as 8 committee to sec that he gets the right kind of a wife. MT. Loeb said that he travelled so much, in South America that he had had no opportunity to meet the right sort of wife and so was seeking one in this way.

KELLY AND SMITH
 SENT BACK ID !. 5.
Not Allowed to Land With Irish
 American Relief Fund

London, July 26.-S. S. Mcclure, the New York publisher, was allowed by the British authorities late yes- terday to disembark from the Amer ican liner Philadelphia at Liverpool after having been detained for twen- allow Thomas Hughes Kelly, who was treasurer of the Irish Relief Fund in America, and his associate, Joseph Smith, to land.
 Kelly and Smith had funds for Ire land which they had collected in New York for the families of the Irish in surgents. Permission to disembarl was refused to both and they will be sent back to America, when the Phil ade1phia sails next week.
 It was learned from an official source that although Kelly and Smith were not allowed to land two others associated with the same work named Murphy and Gill who were prominent in the New York meetings for relief in Ireland, were permitted to disem- bark last week from a steamer from New York. They are now distributing g funds for all Irish families.
 < Murphy and Gill brought a big sum of money which had been contributed in America for the Irish sufferers. The officials after questioning them, in- terpOsed no objection to letting then! proceed to Ireland. In the cases of Kelly and Smith, it was explained that as the Irish sympathizers in America already had two able repre- gentatives in Ire,and it was not con- sidered necessary to allow more to go there. Kelly and Smith were permit ted to send the money they had brought with them ashore and it has been transmitted to Ireland.
 The Philadelphia arrived off Liver pool Sunday night and put into the Canada Street dock at 8 o'clock yes- terday morning. Immediately the mails and baggage were discharged, while the passengers got ready to disembark At noon, after the pas sengers had been examined by the disem barking authorities, those of the first class were allowed to land eX- cepting MT. Mcclure. The publisher was questioned by various officials on board ship and was told that for the time being he would not be allowed to disembark as further inquiry must be made. The other passengers left leaving MT. Mcclure the sole possessor

The monumental task that Matty faces in lifting the Reds out of the wilderness into the promised land can be first understood from this list of Red managers from 1876 to 1916:
 Here it is Cy Neck, J. M. w Neff, o. F. Caylor, Tom Loftus, Charles Comiskey, William (Buck) Ewing, Robert Allen, Bid McPhee, Joe Kelly, Edward Hanlon, John Ganzel, Clarke Griffith, Hank O'Day, Joseph Tinker, Charley Herzog.
 There you have it-ffteen leaders in forty years, without a pennant to flap above the old tepee. Fifteen leaders, including some of the great est minds in baseball-Hanlon Ewing, Comiskey Griffith and others of slightly less repute.
 Tn the forty years the Reds have finished below the 800 mark twenty five seasons, and in the last twelve years they have finished in the sec ond division but twice.

New York Buildings Must Not Be SoIidIy Constructed For More
 Than PIE Times Their Height.

New York, July 26.-The board of estimate yesterday passed the building zone resolution, a measure which Is believed to be the most important step in the development of New York city since the construction of tho subways. The resolution, which carried out a state law passed in 1914, became law on it's passage at 4:3O D. nl., and governs the construction and uso of all future buildings for which permits had not been obtained before that hour.
 The resolution does not prevent the building of skyscrapers, but requires that they shall not be solidly constructed for a height more than two and a half times the width of the street on which they front. For in- stance, if this law had been in exist ence for some years the Equitable building could have been reared in it's present proportions only to a height of 200 feet, or about eighteen stOries On top of that a tower or series of

Watching Cincinnati.

From now on fans from one sec- ton of America to the other and around the map will be focusing their attention on Cincinnati.
 For there are two things there to watch-the greatest pitcher baseball has ever known, and one of the great est brains in the game directing his energies through a new channel; and with him the City of Blighted Hopes There would be no great interest in watching Matty handling some club far up in the race-one with a tra- dition of victory behind it. But to see what he can do with a club that has gone through forty years of sor- row and shame-a club where some of the best have failed-is another epic.
 Beyond the narrow confines of hometown prejudice and partisan ship there will be no other club in the game which so many million fans will be wishing success.

is expected that a corporation will ba formed and the stock sold at $25- d share. One store will be for the sald of dry goods and notions and thd other will be a grocery and meat store.
 At the present time one of these stores is occupied by a grocery and meat store and the other by a dry goods store conducted by Harry Gross. In the near future MT. Gross expects to move his store west or the opposite side of the street. The scheme is thought practical becaus' it is estimated there are between 5, 900 and 1000 people in the member ship of the united societies.

Kelly Carried S5O.00O.

New York, July 26-Eugene Hughes Kelly, as treasurer of the Irish Re- lief Fund, was en route to Dublin, with $50,O00, representing the second installment of the $75,000 fund raised in this country for the relief of per sons in Ireland who had suffered through the recent revolt. He was accompanied by his wife, who was NIlle Arienne de Sa1lier du Pin of Watertown, N. Y, daughter of the Comte and Comtesse Hermel de Sal Her du Pin of Nantes, France, and Joseph Smith of Lowell, Mass, Q journalist and lecturer.
 The first installment of the fund was taken to Ireland by Gill and Murphy Friends of Kelly said yes terday that he intended to give more than $1OO,O00 out of his own pocket to the relief work.
 George J. Gillespie, chairman of the executive committee of the Irish Re lief Fund, when informed of the pre- dicament of Kelly and the latter's party, at once communicated with the state department. He said he was informed tht action would be taken imm mediately.
 Mr. Gillespie said he could not un-
  thorities in view of the fact that Kelly and Smith had in addition to their passports a personal letter from Secretary of State Lansing introducing them to the American amba assador at London.
 'Their passpOrts,' asserted Giles pie, were obtained through my ef- forts and I assure you their mission to Ireland was none other than the one stated therein-the relief of the needy The British consul general vised the passports before the party called and informed me of their ec- cepta bility. If there was any Ob- jection, why wasn't it expressed at that time?"
 MT. Kelly, son of a wealthy banker is 50 years old, member of the Papa Household, and a trustee of St. Pat rick's Cathedral of this city. He is @ grand-nepheW or Archbishop Hughes, the first archbishop of New York, who was sent to France b, President Lincoln as a special ambas sador during the civil war.

the Back Stairs and Forced At tentiOnS on Her.

Whether or not a hug and kiss, if they were actually stolen as alleged, are worth 1000 is the unusual Ques- ton that the superior court judge will have to settle in September. Mrs Non ig Derderian of Hartford avenue has sued Saliac Paparian for $5,O0O, all leging that on July 15 he met her on the back stairs of her home and hugged and kissed her, despite her protests and the close proximity of her brother, Kaspar. Lawyer H. M. Hunt of Hartford is counsel for the plain tiff and Lawyer M. D. Sake appears for the defendant.
 This case was recently aired in po- lice court when the woman had Pa parian arrested for assault. The case fell fiat and Judge Meskill discharged the accused.

 The restrictions on slkyscrapers are only one of many important features of the law, which will affect living and business conditions in every part of the city. The law is designed to check the invasion of retail districts by factories and residence districts by factories and business. It is aimed to prevent an increase of the congestion of streets and of subway and street car traffic in sections where the busi- ness population is already too great for the sidewalks and transit facili- ties,

of the entire first cabin of the Phil adelphia.
 In London no information could be obtained as to the reasons why MT. Mcclure had been detained. IL was said that while permission for MT. Mcclure to visit England last winter when with the Ford peace party in Copenhagen had been refused, no ob- jection to him was known to exist now and that his detention at Liver pool was probably only a perfunctory matter. The British government de- clined to allow any members of tho Ford peace party to come to Eng land last winter. No discrimination, it is said, was aimed at Mir. Mcclure.

The Uphill Journey.

Matty is too crafty Q citizen of our National Land of Swat to look for any easy climb ahead.
 He knows that he faces an uphill journey. Where such leaders as Comiskey, Hanlon and Ewing have failed there can be no soft roadbed to travel upon.
 We recall the day that Buck Her zog went there, strong in his belief that he could break the ancient spell. Herzog worked with tireless energy and with all he had to give-and Herzog is not one who quits easily. But Buck could see no light ahead and so he was glad to be relieved.

MARRIED TWENTY-FIVE YEARS
Former Local Couple Celebrate Event

Yesterday marked the tWentyfifth anniversary of the wedding of MT. formerly of this city. In observance Of the happy event the couple were rendered reception Sunday at which relatives and guests from Hartford and this city were present, among them Mr. and Mrs. James NaughtOn of Stanley street.
 Up to a few years ago, the couple made their home in this city and en- joyed a wide acquaintance.

Red Stars.

The Reds have not suffered this big deficit through absence of talent. In these forty barren years they have had their full share of stars Bobby Mathews, Arlie Latham, Bug Holiday, Tony Mul1ane, Charley Rad bourne, Bid McPhee, Tommy Cor coran, Pete Browning, Frank Dwyer, Charley COmiskey, Tip O'NeilI, Jesse Tannehill Tacks Parrott, Silver Bill Phillips, Buck Ewing, Red Ehret, Theodore Breitenstein, Heinie Beitz, Jake Beckley, Norman Elberfield, Sox Seybold, Sam Crawford, Mike Donlin Noodles Hahn, Amos Rusie, William Bergen, Harry Steinfeldt, Joe Kelley, Cy Seymour, Orval Over rall, Al Bridwell, Dick Hoblitzel1, Harry Coveleskie, Hans Lobert, Joe Tinker, Charley Herzog-these and many other names still remembered in baIldom annals have worn Red hosiery and battled for the old town from year to year.
 There isn't another city in the land that can boast of greater names in the lineup,
 Crawford went from Cincinnati to Detroit and helped to give that city three pennants.

Considerable Assignment.

Evidently, Matty faces what you . might well enough term consider able assignment, job, task or under taking.
 It can be done. Pat Moran proved that by ending the Philly drought after forty barren years last October.
 And it may be that Matty is the man to achieve the miracle that will bring him in as much renown in another field as he ever won over sixteen years from his place in the rifle pit.

\ City of Baseball Tradition.


 Zealand is a city strong in base ball tradition. But so many years of failure there have soured the fanatic soul, and now the Red fan has be- gun each season to look for the worst. And when the break came each fan figured the same old story was about to be related, with the usual setting Of tragedy and crepe.
 MathewsOn should have it in him to make one of the best managers of the game, but he isn't going to plunge at once into any triumph. He has a slow uphill fight ahead. and a good part of his chance depends upon the patience of Cincinnati fans. These fans owe it to their future to please give Matty a chance-not a chance for the rest of this season or next year. but a chance to begin building up the right sort of club.
 They can at least know that in MatheWsOn they have a manager of brains, of course. of resource and of high-class sportsmanship, one who will give his best as he has always given it since he entered the game.

He was at various times editor of The Lowell Times, Boston Traveller, Bos- ton Truth and other newspapers and periodicals. He served four years in the United States Cavalry.
 MT. Kelly recently was a special investigator for the Massachusetts Railroad Commission. In his appIi- cation for passport he gave as his vouchers the names of United States Senator Weeks, the governor Cf Massa chuaetts, former Governor Glynn of New York, and Congressman HOg- CTS of Massa chusetts.
 Local officers of the Irish Relief Fund declared the organization is strictly non-political, in spite of the fact that many of them openly avowed the cause of Irish indepenG- ence.
 Thomas Addis Emmet is president of the fund, w. Bourke Cockran vice president, and John D. Moore, secre- tary, Cardinals Farley, Gibbons. and O'Connell are the honorary presidents and all the Roman Catholic bishops and archbishops in the country are honorary vice presidents.

 MT. Kelly was considered espacja1 l ly valuable for the work in Ireland" 1 said Mir. Mcclure, "because he was l extremely well acquainted with condi- l tions there, and at one time had a | town house at Dublin. Moreover. he
 is banker and a man of the highest l intelligence. He and MT. Smith would 1 have gone earlier than they did, but 1 Tor the fact that their plans were dis l arranged at the last moment 1T was therefore decided to send John A. l Murphy, an insurance man of Buf- l falO, and John Gill of New York to | Ireland first and to have Mr. Kelly
 and MT. Smith follow as soon as cer- 1 tain matters then pending could be | adjusted.

 it was understood at the time they l left that more money would be for l Warded later. The first news we l received that the British authorities 1 had decided to interfere came through
 the newspapers this afternoon. Frankly, I do not sec the justice 1 of the refusal of the British authorities
 in turning MT. Kelly and MT. Smith l back. Since two members of our as-
 sociation already had been permitted
 to enter Ireland for the purpose ot

 there have been in permitting two
