Mustard," said Assistant District Attorney Frederick Dickinson yesterday in referring to a suit which will go to trial this morning before Federal Judge Carpenter. The suit relates to two carloads of alleged rape seed, imported to this country as such, and later reshipped from San Francisco to Chicago as "mustard seed. The suit was brought under the pure food and drugs act, and on its result hinges the fate of many carloads of rape seed held up in various parts of the country. --- DECLARES 'FOOLISH' WOMEN BRING HEATHENISM HERE --- Missionary Assails Mystic Institutions at Dedication of Humboldt Park Temple. --- The Rev. William Moyser, a missionary in India for a quarter f a century, yesterday blamed "foolish" women for bringing "heathenism" into the United States. He was a speaker at the opening of a week of dedicatory exercises at the new Humboldt Park Gospel Tabernacle, Homan and Pierce avenues, erected at a cost of $60,000. "There are twenty initiations in America, founded on the worship of heathen divinities, grossly unclean and sensual, built on the gifts of some fine ladies who are being fooled," he said. "In India these fine ladies would not be recognized as fit associates of a high caste Hindoo." --- FRANCE TO HAVE OFFICE TO DIRECT TRANSPORTATION --- Newly Created Official Will Govern All Traffic, Whether by Rail or Water. --- Paris, Nov. 19-The appointment will be officially announced tomorrow of a director general of transports and importations for the whole of France, whose powers will cover everything connected with traffic, whether by rail, river or sea.

Constantinople, via Amsterdam and London, Nov. 19.-An official statement issued today says: "Mesopotamia-An attack which the Russians attempted against our front with part of their forces northeast of Revandiz (region of Mosul) resulted in a check for them with losses. "Caucasus front-The enemy, who succeeded in penetrating one of our advanced positions to the extent of 100 yards under the protection of violent machine gun fire, was driven back by a counter attack. The position remained in out hands." --- RUNAWAY TAXI HITS TWO GIRLS --- Machine Jumps Over Curbstone and Injures Young Women on Walk. --- Many persons were hurt last night by motor accidents in Chicago and Suburbs. The most unusual smashup was when a taxicab ran up on the sidewalk in front of 311 North Ashland avenue and knocked down Florence Baul, 16 years old, 1533 North Maplewood avenue, and Lulu Schlau, 15 years old, 317 North Ashland avenue. Miss Baul's skull was fractured. The taxi smashed a store window and was wrecked. Charles Engle, 1915 Sheffield avenue, the chauffeur, was detained by the police, who said he lost control of the car. TRAIN STRIKES AUTO. A fast Rock Island train struck and carried an automobile for a quarter of a mile in a grade crossing accident at Ninety-fifth street, hurling Nicholas Hevesy, 9354 Woodlawn avenue, to one side of the tracks, while a companion, Lawrence Kovatz, of the same address, jumped and escaped serious injury. Hevesy's skull was fractured. A touring car turned over in River Forest and burst in flames. The suburban fireman put out the blaze and Henry Bradfish, 4024 Potomac avenue, owner of the car, and J. H. Thomas and their wives were taken to the Oak Park Hospital. The accident occurred at Thatcher and Hawthorne avenues when Bradfsh attempted to turn too sharply. CAR TURNS SOMERSAULT. Four persons were hurt when an auto struck the rim of the fountain at Sixty-seventh street and South Shore drive and turned a double somersault. George Lloyd, 3759 Grand Boulevard, a chemist, did not see the fountain-nor the drive around it-and he and his wife, Charles McMurray, 342 East Huron street, and a woman who refused to give her name were thrown out. Both men received scalp wounds, McMurray's requiring twenty-five stitches. The women were bruised. South Park Policeman George Ferguson said he saw the auto roll over twice.

James Harron, a negro of Elgin, was killed by an auto truck at State and Harrison streets.

Bryan gave an impromptu address to an audience of from 6,000 to 10,000 persons, under the auspices of the Sunday Evening Club. These persons represented the number that failed to get into Orchestra Hall, where Mr. Bryan later spoke before an audience of 3,000. Extra police from the city and South Park systems were rushed to keep Michigan avenue open to traffic. Mr. Bryan did not mention politics in either address. In an interview after the meetings he explained that he never makes a political speech on Sunday. SEES DRY NATION. He said, however, that he expected the United States to go dry within a few years and that he wanted the Democratic party to include in its next platform a plank favoring national prohibition. Steps were taken at Indianapolis yesterday to start the movement to accomplish that purpose, he said. The "great commoner" spoke for about fifteen minutes to the street audience and more than an hour to the audience in Orchestra Hall on "The First Commandment." He termed America's principal false gods gold, fashion, fame, ease, intellect, travel, chance, passion and drink. All of them, he said, could be summed up in one-self. FAME A FALSE GOD "Fame is the politician's false god," he said. "Some people regard office seekers as a nuisance. But even as they worship the false god of fame from selfish motives, they may do a good service to humanity. For in the seeking after office men may be led to put time and energy into reforms which otherwise would not succeed. "As long as there are men out of office who want to be in office they will watch the men in office. The worst of the false gods Americans worships, he declared, is drink. PAY HEAVY TRIBUTE. "In this nation we spend five times as much in the worship of this false god as we do in the worship of the living God," he said. "And if we compare this amount with what is spent for education we find that we spend three times as much for drink as we do in all our schools from the kindergarten to the university. "Drink is the god in whose worship a man forgets his mother and violated his vows to his wife and destroys his home. "All the commandments can be summed up in one, 'Thou shalt not put thyself before God.'" --- Oct. 26 with [[??]] bars of [[silver?]]. Both Kock and his silver fell into the hands of the bandit leader, Julio Acosta, when the town was seized the following day. Kock, however, was set free after being robbed of his treasure, the report says. Four days later he is said to have left for Jimenez in the company of two Mexicans. Nothing further has been hears here regarding him. --- BRYAN DENIES BEING DEAD IN A POLITICAL SENSE --- Says He Is in Arena "With Both Feet"-Hopes to See Nation Dry. --- Indianapolis, Nov. 19.-William Jennings Bryan, in addressing the National W. C. T. U. convention here today, said he was not dead politically, but asserted he was "in politics with both feet." He said he was in favor of national prohibition. "I love my party and, because of my love for it, hope and feel that it will be a 'dry' Democracy," said Mr. Bryan. He said further that in spite of his desire to see national prohibition come through Democratic influence, his prayers for a saloonless nation extended beyond party lines and that he would not necessarily await the triumph of the prohibition cause through the Democratic party, but would welcome a "dry" nation through the Republican party. He also asserted the trend of circumstances of the last few years were such that he was hopeful of a constitutional amendment, perhaps as soon as 1920. --- 5 BOYS DROWN TOGETHER WHEN ICE BREAKS THROUGH --- Searching Parties Recover Bodies Short Distance Apart in Dragging Pond. --- Hastings, Minn., Nov. 19.-Five boys, Allen Gillet, 8 years old; Lyle Lorentz, 8 years old; Edward Wyss, 10 years old; his brother Lester, 7 years old, and Gordon Fisher, 11 years old, were drowned in a slough a short distance from here. Apparently the boys had walked out on the ice, and had broken through. At the time the ice gave way, it is thought the five were close together, as the bodies were found only a short distance apart. TWO BROTHERS ARE DROWNED. Florence, Wis., Nov. 19.-[Special.]-Leslie Hall, 14 years old, and his 8-year-old brother, Howard, were drowned here in sight of three companions only a few feet away.

San Francisco --- Bargains for You in Herald Want Ads. Read them. --- Washington, Nov. 19.-Armed with President Wilson's complete approval of his course, Secretary Lane will return to Atlantic City tomorrow determined to bring the sessions of the American-Mexican joint commission to an early conclusion. He is still hopeful that an agreement as to the border situation can be reached, but it was clearly indicated today in official circles that the joint conference is entering on its final phase, agreement or no agreement. If the commissioners find it impossible to formulate a plan, the view taken here will be that the prospect of settling border disputes through diplomacy will be remote. Secretary Lane is understood to have found President Wilson, Secretary Lansing and Secretary Baker in full accord with him on every point. APPROVED BY WILSON. Every step proposed by Mr. Lane in behalf of his colleagues was approved by the President, and the secretary returns to his task backed by the unwavering support of the administration in whatever course has been mapped out. Army officials believe that the American expeditionary force soon will be moving toward the border, regardless of the turn events may take at Atlantic City. In its present position many officers hold the expedition would be out of no strategic value should general hostilities break out. 159 KILLED IN WRECK. Laredo, Texas, Nov. 19.-One hundred and fifty-nine persons were killed and many more less seriously injured in a railroad wreck on the Inter-Oceanic line to Vera Cruz, between Dehesa and San Miguel, near Jalapa, on Nov. 12, according to reliable reports received here tonight. --- Detectives say the key to the mystery of the vanishing stock of a Kensington saloon is in the possession of Joseph Olchawa, former owner of the bar. After Olchawa's license was revoked by the mayor some time ago for violation of the closing law he sold the place to joseph Frauga, who obtained a license and began doing a prosperous business. Olchawa went into the saloon business in Blue Island. Recently Frauga complained to the police that his liquor stock was being reduced faster than he could sell it. Detective Sergeants Gray and Griffiths and Patrolman Hagersdon set a watch on the place. At 3 a. m. Saturday they saw two men leave the saloon at 11411 Schlitz avenue. One ran and escaped. They caught the other, Harry Ball, who was carrying a five-gallon jug of whisky and had several bottles of liquor in his pockets. Ball said Olchawa was the man who escaped and that he still has a key to the saloon. --- MILITARY TRAINING CAMPS SHOW HEAVY INCREASES --- Total Enrollment for 1916 Is 600 Per Cent Over That of Last Year. --- New York, Nov. 19.-Increase of nearly 600 per cent in a single year in attendance at military training camps of the country was shown by a statement issued here tonight by the American Defense Society.
