Red Cross Awaits
Dividend Checks
Only $1,412,00O Received
of $16,OOO,OOO Prom
ised Here

New York City will fall short Of its
s40,oOo,O00 Red Cross quota by more
than s16,00O,OO0 if it does not receive
promised stock dividends.
1t was announced by the war finance
committee of the Red Cross last night
that of the 5000, 900 declared in these
special dividends toward the 100000 200
only s1,4l2,0c0 has been paid, although
Sl5, 100000 is due now, and the rest Is
to be paid by September /.
The Red Cross. however, intends to
make no further campaign for these
dividends. The act of declaring Red
Cross dividends was branded by some
as peremptory and arbitrary, and the
war finance committee said last night
that il has no wish to coerce unwilling
stockholders, although the result OF the
dividend campaign is disappointing.
There is still hope that more divi-
dend checks will come in. Most of the
corporations that declared the divi-
dends have sent out appeals TO their
stockholders urging their attention in
this matter. A response to these ap-
pesls is hoped for.
Also, as the checks sometimes have
to travel from the local Red Cross
chapter in the town where the stock
holder lives to Washington and then TO
New York, the receipt at New York
headquarters is delayed.

said the National Investment Bsrnn
Company had asked the munieipsn9

There are eight specific charges "

League to Protect Girls

Mrs. Grace Humiston, whose investi-
CATION revealed the murder of Ruth
Cruger. is one of the incorporators of
the Morality League Of America, which
applied Yesterday to the Supreme Court
for a certificate.
The purposes of the league are "to
gather and disseminate facts with a
view to informing the public Of dan
gers existing to women and girls
throughout the United States; to in
vestigate and report to the proper au-
thorities for prosecution complaints
regarding immoral conditions which
may exist throughout the state OF New
York and the states and territories OF
the United States; TO aid in the pas
sage of legislation necessary to pro
mote the objects OF the corporation,
and TO receive and disburse all moneys

Fund, now in the possession of Mrs.
Grace Humiston.

stanch opposition. He said he did not
believe her to be as sick as she had
been represented TO be, and that she
was getting ell the medical attention
she needed in the Nassau County jan.
81 see no reason for treating her any
different from any other accused per-
SON" said Mr.. Weeks. "If she is real
ly in precarious state. and her coun-
sci wants her removed from the jail, /
will have her examined by physi-
clan, and ! will be guided by his re-
port"
Sheriff Phineas Seaman has trans
ferred Mrs. De Saulles from the little
cell she originally occupied to one OF
his wfe's spare rooms, adjoining the
Sheriff's own apartment. The room rs
large and airy, with two windows, both
Of which are barred The change was
made yesterday, according to the Sher-
if, and then only when DR.. Cleghorn
advised il. Evidently the jail physl-
clan thought that more pleasant sur
roundings would help the woman back
TO health.
The inquest, scheduled to be held in
the Nassau County Courthouse here on
Thursday, will be a mere Formally.
Mrs. De Saulles will not be present.
Sensational Trial Expected
Sensational developments reminis-
cent of the De Saulles divorce proceed
ings may be expected when Mrs. De
Saulles is placed on trial. Light Will
probably be thrown on the most strik-
ing feature of the divorce proceedings,
which was that Jack De Saulles, the
guilty party in the divorce case, was
with his wife, the innocent party, VINO
instituted the action.
In most cases the guilty party is only
permitted to see his child for orie1
period at a time and place convenient
TO the mother. There were two ar
rangements in the De Saulles case over
the custody of little Jack.
The first, approved by Justice PEN
dleton in the divorce decree, was by
agreement between Mr.. and Mrs. De
Saulles. The couple agreed that until
Jack was eight years old Mrs. De
Saulles was 10 have the child for seven
months in the year and the father for
five months. Neither Mrs. De Saulles
nor her counsel demanded the full
custody she was entitled to. But the
court could only approve the agree
ment. This was done. Why Mrs. De
Saulles was willing TO give up the lad
at all is a mystery, since the papers
in the case were sealed and nothing
can be learned now of the proceedings.
Little Jack on reaching his eighth
wear was TO be turned over TO his
father for his education. Then he was
to spend only his summer vacations
with his mother.
Mr.. Uterhart confesses that he does
not understand why Jack De Saulles
got the child at all. And revelations
of the details of the divorce proceed
ings, which are expected at the murder
trial, may open up new angles in the
ease

Bill Up Tomorrow
Senate to Give Bill Right of
Way-Hopes to Pass 1t in
Six Weeks

WASHINGTON, Aug. Senate de-
bate on the House war tax bill, rewrit-
ten and revised upward by the Senate
Finance Committee to levy s2,00697O,-
600 in rev taxes, is scheduled to begin
Thursday. After arrangements were
made tonight for disposal of the food
legislation tomorrow. Chairman Sim
mons of the Finance Committee said
he planned 10 call up the revenue meas
ure Immediately after the vote.
The tax bill will be gwen the exclu-
sive right Of way until disposed of.
Leaders are seeking TO reach an in
formal understanding TO limit discus
sion as much as possible and endeavor
TO pass the bill within two weeks, with
the hope of finally adopting the con-
ference report early in September, and
placing Congress in position for re-
cess of six or eight weeks.
Senator Harding, who is fostering the
movement to limit debate, said tonight
that thirty Senators, Democrats and
Republicans, had given informal
pledges to restrict the discussion as
much as possible without interfering
with any Senator's speechmaking
plans, and it was hoped to have fifty
Senators ultimately join in the gentle
mems agreement
Tomorrow or Thursday Senator La
Toilette, of the Finance Committee,
plans to file his separate report on the
revenue bill, proposing to raise many
more millions by taxation, imposed en-
tirely upon incomes, war profits, liquor
and tobacco.
Senators Gore and Thomas are ex-
pected TO indorse that programme.

J. w. Lambert, Rich
Drug Man, a Suicide
Mysterious Phone Call From
Woman Leads to Finding
of BODY

ST. LOUIS, Aug. Jordan w. Lam
bert. millionaire vice-president Of the
Lambert Pharmacal Company and
brother of Albert Bond Lambert, one
of the founders of the Aviation Re-
serve Corps in the United States, was
found dead in his room early to-day.
He had shot himself.
Before his death Lambert had re-
ceived a letter from his present wife,
dated at Hinesburg, VT, in which she
refused TO seek divorce. There also
was found note signed Nellie"
thought to be from his first wife, in
which the writer advised him mot to
do anything RASH" and third note,
from some mysterious woman, un-
signed which follows:
"No mans prudence comes into
action until his sentiment is having a
reaction, ana no mans conscience be-
gins to work until his heart has gone
on strike.
"As long as a man is infatuated with
woman he does not fear the eyes Of
the multitude, nor the tongue of Cos
sip, nor anything that is in Heaven or
earth, save that he may get her"
The maid, Minnie Rain, was awak-
cned about 1 o'clock by the telephone
bell. woman's voice over the wire
told her:
"Mr. Lambert told me he might not
live through it, Please see if he is all
right, or If you can help him"
The maid told Coroner Witt she went
to Lambert's door and heard mumbled
words, which she could not understand.
Returning to the telephone, she told
the woman at the other end that she
did not like to enter Lambert's room,
as she thought he had visitors. The
mysterious caller insisted, so the maid
returned. and, obtaining no reply to
her knock, swung open the door and
discovered Laubert's body.
Lambert was twice married and had
been separated for several months from
his last wife. He was known in st.
Louis as a sportsman, and was much in
terested in psychic phenomena.

Theatre Ticket Agents
Oppose War Tax Bill
Mcbride Says so Per Cent
Lew on Excess Charge Will
End Business

Theatre ticket agencies retained at
torneys yesterday to fight the provl-
siops of the Senate war tax bill which
would impose q 80 per cent tax on the
excess charged by the agencies over
the regular theatre rate. 1t was said
at McBride's and other agencies that
such a tax would put the agencies out
Of business.
The agencies, whose regular rate is
$3.50 for a 81 seat, assert that they
perform a necessary function In the
activities of the city, as they serve
people who have to get tickets In
hurry and are willing to pay for the
convenience.
The only hope seen in the situation
was that theatres which get q bonus
on tickets sold to agencies mig sell
the tickets at box Office rates If taxed
so per cent of the bonus, thus increas-
ing the profits of the agencies. Ihls
view was advanced by Mr.. Mcbride. In
that event, if receipts JUSTIFIED II, II
was said that the agencies might pay
fixed sum at stated intervals for the
privilege Of obtaining the tickets. .
A tax of so per cent on proht OF
so cents would leave the ticket agencies
a nroAt of % cents. which Is said to
be insufficient to enable them to con-
tinue business. At present the agencies
nav the theatres a bonus Of rs cents
on each 81 ticket, and so, under one
Interpretation Of the bill. would lose
their entire protit.
Under another Interpretation, If the
30 per cent tax applied only TO the
gross profit of the agencies--25 cents
the agencies would be taxed 121s cents
on each ticket sold. This, according to
the Mcbride and other agencies, would
not leave enough for operating ex-

Cropsey and Mitchell
Men Meet in Secret
Fusionists Believed to Have
Asked Justice Not to Run
Against Mayor

William Hamlin Childs, chairman Of
the executive committee Of the Fusion
Committee of 1917, which is working
for the reelection of Mayor Mitchell,
and some of the Brooklyn members Of
the executive committee, met Justice
James C. Cropsey at Mr.. Childs's office,
% Court Street, yesterday, and con-
ferred for two hours. Those who at
tended the conference we're not dis
posed to discuss what took place. II
was assumed that the Mitchell Fusion
men had endeavored to persuade JUS
tice Gropsey not TO enter the Repub-
lcan primaries against Mayor Mitchell,
and had not been successful, or such
an announcement would have been
forthcoming.
Justice Cropsey declined to discuss
he conference in any way, but said he
lad no objection to having Mr.. 'Childs
describe the meeting. Herbert X.
Twitchel. chairman of the Brooklyn
executive committee OF the Fusion
Committee, headed the Brooklyn dele
cation. Every effort was made by the
Fusion conferrees to keep the meet
ing secret.
Mr.. Childs was reached by telephone
at his summer home in Greenwich last
night.
"If Justice Cropsey will not describe
the conference don't see why /
should" he said. THE meeting was
really of no great Importance. We
merely had a very pleasant and infor-
NAL discussion OF the Fusion situa-
ton"
it is understood that the discussion
of the situation was not finished yes
terday, and that some members of the
Fusion committee expect to meet JUS
tice Cropsey again to-day.

held, quite openly, between Postmas-
ter General Burleson. the recognized
authority on purely political and pa
tronaee questions, and the Tammany
members of the House. A meeting OF
the House was nearly broken up re-
Gently by Representative Jimmy Gal
livan, of Boston, who, after walking
cut Of the House chamber into the
lobby. rushed back into the chamber
and waved everybody, including the
press gallery, to come out into the
lobby and look.
Conference with Tammany Men
Mr.. Burleson was talking in low tones
TO a group of men who completely sur
rounded him. Every man IN the group
was a Tammany organization man.
When asked what it was all about. the
Tammany men said later they were
urging something or other on the POST
master General, which was somewhat
discounted by the fact that the Post
master General apparently did all the
talking.
IL has been generally taken for grant,
ed here that Tammany was beng good
in the hope that the Administration
might indorse its candidate for Mayor
or at least would not oppose a TAM
many candidate.
The Tammany men have not forgot
ten how William Jennings Bryan, when
Secretary of State; Senator Owen. OF
Oklahoma, and other men, who evident
ly had no opposition from the White
House, ii not its support, campalgned
in Illinois against the election of Roger
Sullivan as Senator, with the result
that Senator Sherman, Republican,
was reelected. They do not want that
kind of neutrality from the White
House in their Mayoralty fight this
fall. At least, they want the President
TO keep any one who might be taken
as speaking for him from talking in
New York City in favor Of Mayor
Mitchell.
