Chicago Sept. 15.—Refusal by a number of the country s biggest

Galveston ought to have a season of
public band concerts next summer.
The El Mina Shrine band and the
Knights of Columbus hand rendered a
distinct service to the city during the
past summer.
Next summer arrangements should
be made for a regular program of
concerts such as proved so popular in
former years.
Galveston can easily afford free band
concerts.
Instead of holding them all at Men-
ard park as in other years, it might be
well to arrange the weekly program
in such a way as to have concerts each
week at all three playgrounds.
IN NEW YORK last Monday, the New
York Edison company provided a din-

tral electric illumination. Forty years
ago Edison and other workmen, in
overalls, gathered at 257 Pearl street,
threw the switch that started light
from New York’s first central power
station.
How much does that light mean to
the world now? Slowly men get what
they need. First letters with which
to write, then presses and movable type
which which to print, then light to use
the night hours in reading.
And all depends on the real light,
that of thought, with the brain for
its power house.

London, Sept. 15.—One of the possible immediate results of this
afternoon’s British cabinet meeting, it is believed, is that Mustapha
Kemal Pasha will be informed he will be met not only by British
troops and ships, but by a Jugo-Slav army if he attempts to occupy
Constantinople and cross the Straits of the Dardanelles.
It is an established impression in military circles that the Turkish
nationalist army is large enough to take the Turkish capital if Kemal
desires and he has sufficient guns to drive the fleet out of the
Bosphorus. It is considered unlikely he would take such measures.
There are intimations, the Serbs are determined not to have the
Turks as neighbors in Thrace or to permit the Bulgars a foothold
on the Mediterranean.
A note from France outlining her attitude of possible co-operation
with England in the Turkish situation was expected.

A number of Turkish officials, accused
of having aided the Greeks, were exe-

“Refugees arriving in Athens from
Smyrna recount terrible stories re-
garding the state of the city, owing to
the ferocity of the Turks. Immediately
on their arrival the Kemalist troops
gave themselves over to massacre and
robbery of the Christians and the
quays were littered with corpses. A
Greek journalist was shot dead after
being dragged through the streets tied
to the back of an automobile.
“An American passenger who reached
Piraeus from Smyrna says he saw 900
Armenians forced by the Turks to em-
bark on a lighter. The Armenians were
then shot down from the shore, the
bodies being left floating in the water.
According to other passengers, promi-
nent members of the British colony in
Smyrna were similarly murdered.”

Washington, Sept. 15.—Postal sav-

during August, despite heavy withdraw-
als in mining and railroad centers, ac-
cording to the announcement by the
post-office department today.
The largest increase in deposits noted
by any office was reported in Boston,
where the August increase over July
was $149,178, the second largest in-
crease was in Brooklyn with deposits
for August of $13,595,541, an increase
of $51,110.
Kansas City, Mo., was ninth with

Washington, Sept. 15.—Im-

way employes, as presented to the
house Monday by Representative
Keller, Republican, Minnesota,
will be considered by the judici-
ary committee at a meeting to-
morrow at which Mr. Keller will

The call for the meeting was is-

he was prepared to go before the
committee and present evidence
in support of his charges. The

that many of their shopmen would be
back on their jobs today or tonight
over the entire systems. The North-
western employs about 12,000 shopmen
and the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.

Strike leaders were said to be in-
tent upon addressing communications
to some of the unwilling roads asking
them to reconsider their rejections. 1
Among the larger systems said to

Houston, Sept. 15.—The examining

Geneva, Sept. 15.—The decision of
the steering committee of the assem-
bly of the league of nations to put
over again for another year the Can-
adian amendment to the covenant,
eliminating article ten, met with stout
opposition. The Canadian minister of
marine, Ernest La Pointe, insisted
upon its consideration now. The com-
mittee then decided to appoint a sub-
committee to make a new report on
the question.
M. Barthelemy of France, defended
article ten, which provides that the
members of the league undertake to
respect and preserve against external
aggressional the territorial integrity
and existing political independence of
all the members.
“If by the supression of article ten
we could attract the United States into
the league,” M. Barthelemy said, “the
sacrifice would appear to be light. But
as it seems that our esteemed sister
republic is not ready to join us, with
article ten eliminated, we are bound
to insist upon its maintenance.

The body of J. D. Creath, president
of the Krausse-Creath company, was
found about a mile west, of Virginia
Point on the bay shore with a bullet
wound in the left temple at 3:45 o’clock
Thursday afternoon. A pistol lay near
the body. The body was found by a
searching party, consisting of Luther
Creath, a brother, and Louis Bale, E.
C. Moore, and L. L. Daniels. A pistol

Mr. Creath had been missing from
his home since Wednesday, when he
boarded an interurban train after tellr
ing his friends that he was going to
Houston for a few days. He was seen
getting off the train at Virgina Point,
and this fact led to the discovery of the
body.
Mr. Creath was 39 years old. He
was born in San Angelo. While a boy

CHARLES M. WHITE of Cleveland
says the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers, besides buying an office
building for two and a half millions
is buying West Virginia and Kentucky
coal mines with capacity above six
thousand tons a day.
The engineers will sell coal to work-
ers in big cities and pay their miners
well.
Several hundred engineers will own
in the ground about two hundred mil-
lion dollars worth of coal.
That is the way for organized labor
to show Intelligence and power. Do
what other successful do—get some-
thing and develop it. A few coal mines
and big buildigs owned by labor will
have more effect than any numbersof
sad stories and pitiful appeals. Dol-
lars are the successful soldiers and
orators of this age.

One story is that the nationalist com-

ONE DEMONSTRATION of magnifi-

Chairman Lasker, of the shipping
board, sold the American fleet of 226
wooden ships for $750,000.
Those ships cost, in the days of high
patriotism and $l-a-year efficiency
$300,000,000. The sale therefore re-
alized something less than one-third
of one cent on the dollar.
LOUIS LOUCHUR of France, success-

twentieth of a cent. He is betting
now that before the end of the year
there will be a democratic revolution
in Germany. He bets that the Demo-
crats will win the coming congressional
elections in the United States. He says
that will result in “decisions in which
we—France, will felicitate ourselves.”

Jackson, Calif, Sept. 15.—Dr. L. P.
Duschak, consulting chemical engineer
of th© California industrial accident
commission today, issued a signed
statement in which he predicted that
the 47 miners entombed for 18 days in
the Argonaut mine would be found
alive.
“There is ground for assuming that
the men under ground were not over-
come by the poisonous gases from the
fire zone and that these gases are not
now passing through the parts of the
mine in which the men sought refuge.”
Dr. Duschak’^ statement said.
“Since the memorandum of Septem-
ber 7,” he continued, “particular at-
tention has been given to sampling of
gas coming up from the mine through
the raise at the 2,400 foot level. Sam-
ples taken at this point are undiluted
by the surface air and representative
mixture of gas from the fire zone and
from various underground sources
I which mingle at the lower levels and
come up through the series or raises
to the 2,400 foot level. Since Sept. 7
there has been a gradual diminution in
the amount of carbon dioxide and car-
bon monoxide in this gas and an in-
crease in oxygen.
“The gas coming up through the
raise at the 2,400 foot level has been
comparatively clear and free from
smoke during the greater part of the
time. On two occasions since Septem-
ber 7 a considerable volume of steam
was noted indicating that water is
penetrating parts of the fire zone.
"There is no reason for thinking
that the movement of the air in the

I ed materially since the early stages of
I the fire.

With the organization of the special

action by the city commission to issue
$500,000 in bonds, there is every pros-

public school improvement program.
The advice of a specialist will be
secured by the board as to the details
incident to the construction program.
While it will be impossible to have
■the new buildings ready for the com-
ing term of schools, it is confidently
expected they will be in shape to take
care of classes at the beginning of
the 1923 term.
In the meantime, the temporary
wooden buildings which had been erect-
ed to handle the increased scholastic
population of the city will be used.
When the entire $1,000,000 bond is-
sue has been expended Galveston will
have public school equipment of which
it can be proud.

The most important question on the

posed increase in the number of mem-
bers of the council of leagues. The
committees reports on minor questions
