BABY BEATING CASE
A Father Found Guilty of Abusing
His Offrpring,
W. H. Taylor was found guilty of
spanking his 2-months-old , baby too
ftiarshly. The Municipal Court was crowd
ed with women who gave evidence tend
ing to show that Taylor did not handle
his baby with the tenderness to which a
young child is entitled.
Dr. W. M. Booth, testified on the stand,
that he had examined the baby In ques
tion, and found it had been bruised by
some external injury. The skin was dis
colored for a considerable spot on the
vicinity of the hip. And in his ulnlon
the Injury had been made by spanikigg.
Officer Hawley, Mrs! Alice Luger, Jale
Newman and Mrs. S. S. Lawson, all
stated that they had seen the black and
blue spots on the body of the child'
Mrs. Luger stated that she had on one
occasion, went to Taylor's house and
found him spanking the child which was
crying In great pain..
Malcom Hoyt. a step-son of Taylor,
took the stand and stated that the father
had been In the habit of beating the
child, spitting In Its face, and on one
occasion tried to smother it with a pil
low. Taylor, hi his statement, informed the
court that he loved his child and had
never done it any intentional Injury, but
had always .been kind and tender In his
handling of the heir. That on the oc-
eoeltm "of the alleged Spanking he was
trying to sooth the child with love taps,
and. at the time h was accused of trying
tit smoother the child, he was only play
ing with It.
' Attorney Gatens, in his. address to the
court, did not spare the alleged child
"beater. He stated that the man was a
brute and a beast, and no punishment
was severe enough for a man who would
deliberately beat a aerenseles cnlia in a
manner which the evidence showed the
man Taylor had done.
Judge Wilbur, In summing up the case,
stated that he did not believe that any
man had a right to beat a" child. 'That
while the evidence was not wholly sat
isfactory, yet it was plain the child had
been abused, and In view of the testi
mony, it was reasonable to presume that
the father had been the one to Inflict the
Injuries, whether it was Intentionally
or not did not alter the case. The low
est fle of $25 was imposed.
An appeal was taken - by Humes &
Petraln for the defense. Taylor was re
leased on a $30 bond. .

Activity in Building Operations

Sunnystde seems to be getting mi
than her share of the Wgo number of
Easterners who are daily arriving in the
city looking for a place to locate their
families. The number has Increased so
rapidly that it is hard to tell who Is a
new eomer In the suburb or who are the
old residents.
Improvements are being made through
out the district and everybody is busy.
New concrete sidewalks are being laid
In every direction and a large number
of other walks are In contemplation.
The entire block on Belmont street be
tween East "Thirty-fourth and East
Thirty-fifth streets la being prepared for
the laying of the walk.
A number of new buildings are under
construction and preparations are being
made for the building of others. Work
has been begun on the excavation work
for the new two-story brick building to
be erected bT. S. McDantels' on Bel
mont street East or station "c."
The addition , to the Sunnystde school
building Is rapidly being put into shape
and wilt be completed In time for the
Fall opening of school. Already there
are enough additional pupils In the dis
trict who have lately settled In Sunny
side from the East to till the new struc
tore to overflowing.'
Several of the streets In the district
are being graded to make them level
with the rest of the thoroughfares. East
Thirty-third street is being leveled for
several blocks South of Belmont street.
There Is some talk at the present time
of getting up a petition for the replank-
Ing of East Thirty-fourth street . from
Belmont street to Hawthorne avenue.
In some parts of the roadway the wood

East Thirty-first , street has been filled

WHAT WILL
MORGAN DO?
Will He Be a Factor Settling the
Coal Strike?
(Journal Special Service.)
ST. LOUIS, Mo., Aug. 22. A special
correspondence to the Post-Dispatch
from New York says that the return
from Europe of J. Plerpont Morgan Is
expected to bring the coal strike to a
crisis In a very short time. During the
Ab.sense ot Jdj... Morgan, he has. conlinu-
ually ignored the appeals of Senator
Hanna and others to Interfere In the sit
uation. He went abroad burdened with
his own business, and he has refused
to have his attention diverted by matters
at home which he thought could await
his return.
It Is believed that there must soon be
' radical change In the situation, and
that in the end the operators must yield.
Otherwise the conditions will be unen
durable to consumers in the large East'
em cities who face the winter with no
coal, and In fact no fuel of any kind in
sight. It is stated " on good authority
that big considerations of national pol
itics, are Involved In any steps which
may be taken, to end the strike. Thus
far Senator Hanna has been the only
conspicuous advocate of a settlement cf
the difficulty. Jn a word, the anthracite
operators have developed the slpcerlty of
jar. JiBnna. iney yuim uuduiq iuci mat
when the question of ordering the strike
was at its most acute stage he failed to
call a meeting of the National Civic Fed
eration,' as he was expected to do.' They
question his motives, calling attention
to his large Interests In the bituminous
coal mines, which have profited Im
mensely by the long suspension of oper
ations in the anthracite region.
It Is unlikely, therefore, that Senator
Hanna will be allowed to gain the credit
for settling the strike, a victory which
would give tremenduoui Impetus to his
presidential boom. The operators would
be far more willing to allow the credit of
a settlement to go to Sepator Quay, and
the latter would particularly rejoice In
succeeding when Hanna failed, for he
has had an old score to settle with Han
na ever since the latter voted against
seating him In the United States Sen
ate.
