Much Speculation as to the Final Result Is Caused by Announcement.

Rv Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Jan. bert B. Cummins of Iowa, progressive Republican, today announced his candi- dacy for the Republican presidential nomination, in a statement in which he says that if the Republicans of Iowa be- lieve him a fit man to urge before the Chicago convention he will accept their decision. The entrance of Cummins presidential fight materially compli- cates the Republican situation. Presi- dent Taft now is openly opposed for the nomination by Senators La F[ollette and Cummins, both progressives, while still other progressives are urging the nomination of Roosevelt. Starts Speculation. announcement by Senator Cum- had been expected for several days. Coming today in connection with the report from Denver that Gifford Pinchot was taking the initiative in a movement for a conference of Progres- Sive Republicans to decide on one can- didate to oppose President Taft, it started a riot of political speculation which eclipsed the ordinary activities of the Government. Senator Cummins’ statement follows: ‘So much has been published in the newspapers, so much written and said to me concerning the presidential mat- ter that I feel it to be my duty to make to the Republicans of lowa a plain statement on the subject. “Immediately on my return from the last session of Congress [ gave out through the press my opinion with re- spect to the presidency. That opinion re- mains unaltered. More Than Two Candidates. “The situation, however, has _ mater- ially changed and it now seems proba- ble that more than two candidates for nomination will be seriously considered by the national convention. “Under these conditions if the Re- publicans of Iowa believe I am a fit man to be presented to the national con- vention as a candidate for the presiden- tiaf nomination and desire to so present me, I will appreciate and accept their confidence as a most. gratifying evi- dence of their continued faith in my purpose to serve, as best I can, the gen- eral welfare of the people. “ALBERT B. CUMMINS.” At the Progressive Republican cam- paign headquarters here the decla- ration was made today by W. L, Houser in charge, that the fight for La Follette would continue as if there were no other progressive candidates on the horizon; that it was “La Fol- lette, first, last and all the time.” In regard to a report from Denver that a concerted movement was on foot to hold a pre-convention meet- ing and decide on one progressive candidate, Houser said he knew noth- ing of any such move. He could not that any conference of the sort was likely. Senator La Follette’s only comment, the Cummins statement ”—Senator Al- into the The mins see when shown was: “T have nothing to say.”

Shepley, one of the directors who voted to advance the rates. Shepley said that he had talked with Vice-President Edwards Whitaker about calling a meeting, and that a con- ference of directors will be called either by President Gleed or Whitaker. President Charles S. Gleed of the tele- phone compony was served with a sub- pena Friday night to appear Monday afternoon before the Legislation Com- mittee of the House of Delegates and give further testimony regarding the earnings of the company. Gleed was served at the Southern Hotel as he was preparing to leave for Kansas City. The authority to issue process and compel witnesses to testify at the pub- lic hearing was granted to the commit- tee Friday night by the House of Dele- gates. As s00n As the authority was granted, a subpena was issued 93 and placed in the hands of Sergeant-at-Arims Wade of the House for service. Gleed said he was surprised at being served with the subpena, and said that an invitation to appear is all that would have been necessary. When he volun tarily appeared as a witness Wednes- day he promised to submit to the com- mittee Thursday the minutes of the dir- ectors’ meeting at which the rate- ad- vance was made, and other records. He did not appear at the hearing Thurs- day, and the minutes were not pro- duced. General Manager Mott of the Bell company, and George H. Bowles, its attorney, made a request at the public heating Wednesday that the opponents of the increase withdaw their objections until. the Public Service Commission makes its report on the value of the property and, holding of the company. Représentatives of the various business and civic organizations present made a counter request that the company suspend its proposed advance in rates until the report is made by the com- mission. Neither side seemed willing to grant the request of the other. In a conversation with Shepley, Chair- man Hale of the Legislation Committee of the House suggested that the rate in- crease be postponed until the Public Service Commission is ready to report. It was intimated that if the rates are sus- pended the pending bill seeking to limit the charge to $6.50 will be held in the committee unreported until the rate mat- ter is adjusted following the commis- sion’s report. This brought about the conference of Shepley and Whitaker resulting in the plan to call a meeting of the directors. The public hearing before the committee * scheduled to be resumed Monday at Dp. Mm.

Her to Go Into Hysteria. AMES, Io., Jan. 20.—Chloroform and the doctors were necessary to stop Mrs. A. Fox of this city from laughing over her daughter's story concerning an inci- dent at a circus. Today she is slowly recovering from the illness which re- sulted from the laughing spell. Mrs. Fox and her daughter were work- ing about the house vesterday afternoon when the latter happened to remember something she once saw at a circus and told about it. The mother had been laughing two hours when medical aid was summoned and chloroform adminis- tered. It was with great difficulty that the physicians suppressed their laughter, and members of the family and friends

ceased laughing only after they had learned of the serious nature of the case. ——— ee

“VANE OF THE I, HE purpose of this novel, plainly, Is to urge us to the woods, ly, For our share of worldly goods, There to prove we're not afraid of Showing what a man is made of. i 8 Vane did this. Now Vane, a Briton, Was a@ man, beyond a doubt, Having to be well frostbitten Thoroughly to bring it out, Having to go West and settle In the woods to show his mettle. Hardships incidental to Life along the North Pacific, Waited for him coming through, Fell upon him, piled atop him, Just to see if they could stop him. t IV. Like a football player dragging Seven giants down the field, Vane went onward, never flagging, Till his power was revealed, Till the wilderness that flayed By that process also made him. 1 him V. One day Vane went back to Britain, Temporarily a guest, Always chafing at the bit and Feeling terribly oppressed, Always longing for distraction In the theater of action. 2. Still, though he was heavy laden With the Briton’s quiet life, He contrived to see a maiden Whom he asked to be his wife, Keep his home, and count his money, In the land of milk and honey. VII. When the lady fair refused him, Vane could scarcely get his breath: People who had thus abused him Usually suffered death, Or enjoyed, at least, a measure Of his terrible displeasure. VITTI. Cupid, though, can roar and bellow Some himself, as goodnees knows, And soon delivered this proud fellow With a circlet in his nose, Just as if, with all his twaddle He were the merest mollycoddie.

“HER HUSBAND.” HE gentle reader doesn't square’ deal in Julia Magruder'’s latest story, ‘‘Her Husband.’ The author gives her novel the subtitle, “The Mystery of a Man,”’ but the so- Ret a called’ mystery is but a ttrick that is likely to arouse resentment when it ix discovered. Enid Gerard marries Egbert Lothian, a8 wealthy Scotchman, who attracts her by his extraordinary intellectual at- tainments and dominating personality, but who, she quickly finds, is so brutal, selfish, jealous, narrow-minded and priggish that there is no hope of hap- piness for her in Jiving with him. A separation follows after a time, he to become a big game hunter and world traveler, and she to seek consolation and forgetfulness in the capitals of Eu- rope, and at her parental home in America. They communicate occasion- ally, she to beg him to free her by di- vorce, and he declining to do so because he doesn’t wish to splotch the famils escutcheon with scandal. Then, for three years, she gets not a word from him, till one day, to her amazeinent, there comes a note from him summon- ing her to his family estate, where, he proposes they shall mask, for a time, as husband and wife for the sake of appearances before the tenantry and the country side. He promises that their relations shall be of the most forma! and surface character, and that, after their expiration, a way will be found to make their separation legal. As 10 vears have elapsed, he is con- siderably altered when they meet and has grown a beard he didn’t wear when they separated. But otherwise at first he appears to be unchanged and his manner is quite as stiff and formal as when he went away. But he gradually unbends, and, wonder of wonders, he shows such consideration for Enid that she finds herself drawn to him. The fascination grows daily and the reader no less than Enid, wonders what on earth has come over him to change him from a boor into such a Kindly and considerate gentleman. This is where the trick comes iss. ‘The day for the final separ: ation is at hand and the prospective parting becomes so painful to both that it is obvious some confessions must be made, so the erring husband makes his, which, in brief, that he {s not the husband at all, his twin brother. Truly this is a most unexpected mys- would not be hard to into any story. The twin tells how he happened to be hunting Hons in is but had long been estranged, happened to be doing the same thing: that his brother happened to be mauled by a lion and wilderness as he was dying; that though they had not seen each other since boy- hood, the huaband-brother happened to ask him to take up his life where he waa about to give it up and go back to the family estate and never let the world know what was about to happen. The as dead. Of course, thts extraordinary chain of happenings does not feaze Enid, who is madly in love with such a romantic figure and the presumption is that they marry and live happily ever after, while the reader, who has un- denfably been deeply interested, con- templates in amazement the ruse by TIMBERLANDS” There to struggle, sometimes vain- AN IMPERIAL CHICKEN FANCIER. | = widnnicnidiinatens —— ——— re ee ee PICTURE REVIEW.

She learned to recognize genuine worth under an exterior not wholly con- formed to her standards of taste, and, on the other hand, that faultiess man- ners may cover an unfeeling heart. She learned how rich and aristocratic En- glish were in the habit of ridding them- selves of the unwelcome presence of poor or otherwise unwelcome relatives, an easy way being to burden Australia with the flotsam and jetsam of their over-civilization. She conceived an al- most passionate love for the Australian, first having also some of the experiences to be naturally expected in the case of a fascinating young woman. On these general lines Laura Bogue Luffman has produced a vivacious and interesting story, not omitting to show the crudeness and not uncommon yul- garity of Australian life, nor failing. the contrary, to do justice to the splen- did civilization evolving out of these crude beginnings. The time of this story is in the year 1900-01, some of the incidents being the return of soldiers from the Boer War. the death of Queen Victoria and the visit of the Duke and Duchess of York to open the sessions of the first Federal] Parliament.

Twenly-Second Lesson. ‘AT women make the mis- take of trying to wear the things they see and like on other and slim women. But, after all. they are not to blame, because almost every fashion picture printed, and every model dis- played are intended for the sylph-like. Nothing seems de- signed for the fat woman; they have nothing to go by and, as many lack entirely the gift for seeing themselves as others see them, they often are made to look twice their size. TYPES OF THE FAT. OW in spite of the fashion there are women who are fat and

A

of the chapter and they want to be as well dressed and as stylish as their slim sisters. These are repre- sented by two types: One is the wom- an who looks at her reflection in the glass and is PERFECTLY content with what SHE sees; if anyone were to tell her that she was too large, ungainly and not altogether faultless she would pot believe it. When the scales tell her how much she weighs, she calmly gays: “They MUST be wrong. I euldn’t weigh that much. Why! I’m not any larger than you are! The idea!’ The other one is fat; knows she's fat and DOESN’T CARE, so long as she can eat, sleep and make no ef- fort. Just the same they both want to be stylish and to LOOK slender. But how? It opens up a field of endless study where subtraction plays the big- gest part. RULES FO.2t THE CORPULENT. HERE are a few rules that have been laid down by a famous dressmaker, who has made a success of gowning fat women. While he is an artist in the management of materials and an adept in the art of optical illusion, his fame has been made by adhering strictly to his little rules which I am going to tell you: Fat women should pay particular at- tention to their corsets. Everyone knows by this time that good corsets will mold soft flesh into a graceful eontour, or rather silhouette, and cor- cets should be chosen for their long Another mistake of fat women, and the most fatal of all, is wearing their clothes too tight. Lacing only accentu- ates all that 1s unlovely and should be concealed. Easy-fitting clothes have a tendency to make a large woman look smaller. Long lines, dark shades and soft ma- terials all have an effect of reducing size, Fat women should dress their shoul- ders and necks carefully. Their yokes and collars should fit faultlessly. <A bit of white lace next the face is wonderful- ly softening and becoming to full faces. High collars and small jabots give a trimness much needed to full throats. When tunics are worn they should never be cut square across, but should be finished diagonally. Stripes running around the figure are disastrous to all lines. Too plump arms and shoulders should never be bare, but veiled softly with a transparency. CONCEAL YOUR DEFECTS. LOSE drapery on bust and should- ers conceal rather than add to their size, and panel effects cut off much of the breadth of a broad figure. Round hats are dangerous things for fat women to attempt. In buying a hat they should always be very careful to Bee the entire figure from the crown of their heads to the soles of their feet, Suiting the hat to the whole figure in- stead of to the face alone. So many Women look as though they had bought their hats without considering the rest of them. In consequence, one sees flat, broad hats on flat, broad women, rolly- polly hats on rolly-polly women and hats that have no relation whatever to the woman's needs. In every detail fat women should be scrupulously neat, having their collars, belts and fastenings to fit and fastened Derfectly What is dainty and fluffy or “artistically careless’ on a slender Woman becomes on a fat woman hope- less untidiness. rat women must stick to these rules and try for long lines and sombre Shades—no cut-off effects. They should find their best lines and bring them out. Wear their clothes lose and affect soft, clinging draperies that conceal their &voirdupots. Remember that no taco awomen,

one, can dress alike and look the came. Miss Burke Answers Queries C. E. writes: “I wish you would Please advise how the puplls of the eyes Can be made larger. In one of your first lessons, I noticed that you say by a few simple exercises the eyes

“FAT WOMEN MAKE THE MISTAKE OF TRYING TO WEAR THE THINGS THEY LIKE ON OTHER WOMEN" dermatologist. The money spent now will probably save a much greater ex- penditure for false hair in the years to come. Try massaging your scalp with the balls of your fingers every night. Any tightness of the scalp causes lack of circulation and nourishment and re- sults in premature loss of hair. Nour- ish your scalp with olive oil and plain yellow vaseline rubbed in well every other night. Brush your hair well ey- ery day and don’t wash it too often. MM ©. D. 118: Your pimples and bad ®color come from within and are signs of bad digestion. Try a cup of hot water each morning. Squéeze the juice of half a lemon into it and drink it upon rising, or about fifteen minutes before breakfast. Walk at least part of the way to your place of employment in the morning and at least'part of the way home in the evening. A treatment for blackheads was printed in the ar- ticle on Thursday. RIGHT EYES: Beauty doctors claim that dimples can be made by a continuous pressure on the spot where the dimple is desired. But if you are considered good looking and are blessed with a dimple in one cheek, I think you have your share of beauty and should be content. Be careful that you do not create a cancer in your cheek. ACECOURSE AVENUE: It {ts tm- possible to advise you on such meager information, The crack in your nose may come from many different causes. Why don’t you see a doctor? ILLOW: Exercises for the develop- ment of the chest and shoulder muscles which were published in the re- cent article on arms and shoulders will help make your bust firm. Your pres- ent condition is due to lack of care and a great deal of care will be necessary to strengthen the muscles. Keep up the exercises for a long time. ISTRESSED writes: “How can I re- move little veins that are around my nose? Possibly you can give me a remedy to prevent same.” I know nothing that will remove the little veins around your nose. Broken veins come from some weakening of the blood vessels and I should see a doctor. AY writes: “Will you please tell me in Post-Dispatch what will help me to remove the wrinkles under the eyes and flabby skin? I am only 27 years old, and I look 387. I have tried many things. Please answer me in the Post-Dispatch and I will do just as you say, and be very grateful.” Bathe your eyes In hot water, then cold, to bring about good circulation. Massage beneath them with cocoa oll, using the first finger of each hand and rubbing lightly from the outside toward the nose. This treatment should nour- ish and stimulate the skin and mus- cles.and iron out the wrinkles.

‘of the world for the Richmond ' people. HE earliest ambition of David R. Francis was to be . stage driver. The first money David R. Francis earned was by selling newspapers. Fifty years ago the boy walked out the pike a mile or more every afternoon to meet the stage coming over from Lexington to Richmond. He had formed such friendly re- lationship with the driver that he was allowed to climb on the box and hold the lines over the four horses. Those were war times. The stage was the means of communication with the rest There was great de- mand for the Cincinnati and Lexington papers. One day the driver—his name was Raleigh Hazelwood, Mr. Francis even now remembers—said to the boy: ‘‘Davie! I want you to sell these papers and I'll give <you a commission. ’’ ‘Of course I’ll sell ’em, Mr. Hazelwood,’ the boy interrupt- ed. “‘T’]] give you a cent apiece for selling them,’’ continued the driver. ‘‘T don’t want any commission or pay,’’ the boy said. ‘“‘If you'll just let me drive these four horses into Richmond every jay I’ll sell all the papers you bring.”’ But the stage driver took no advantage of ‘‘Davie’s’’ enthus- iasm, he stood by his bargain. HIS START IN LIFE S the earnings grew the boy put the money in the Richmond Bank. When, in 1866, he started for St. Louis to get an educa- tion, he had saved $60 in gold. He trad- ed for greenbacks at 60 per cent pre- mium and with $9 capital he entered Washington University. The full four years’ course was completed in 1870. As he faced the world, David R. Francis had a balance sheet which showed a credit of one college diploma and a debit of $450 borrowed to get the educa- tion. He thought he wanted to be a lawyer. An opportunity knocked as the

Today he is no less a fac- tor in the great commercial system be- cause the pack horse and ox team have been supplanted by the locomotive and the dvnamo. He still stands ready to buy from the producer, is willing to de- liver to the consumer when the demand requires. Who can say that the mer- chant does not add to the value of the raw product and at the same time dl- minish the cost of necessities? He has been at all times abreast of the increase of production and of the growth of transportation.” THE HIGHER IDEALS. R.

It was Emerson who said ‘The presence of a rich man in his community helps the credit of every man and every institu- tion in it.’ “Whether that is true or not, a cit- izen in a community, whose character is strong, whose standards are high and whose conduct is in keeping with those standards, has an influ- ence which cannot be overestimated.” Testimony as to the manner in which Mr. Francis has made practical applica-

gations to by the late Joseph Pulitzer, who wrote, just before the World’s Fair: ‘‘I know of no man today so well entitled to the admiration of the citizens of his State or who is doing more enduring work for the city of St. Louis than Gov. Fran- cis.’’ That the voung man of the twentieth century need fear no demon of overwork is the opinion of Mr. Francis. “What an engine in breeches!” Pres!- dent Taft, then Secretary of War, said of the president of the World’s Fair, making latter-day application of Sydney Smith’s apostrophe to Daniel Webster. It used to be said of Mr. Francis, to illustrate his varied and _ incessant activities, that he had more partners than any other man in St. Louis. To the inquirer who wanted to know how he did it all, Mr. Francis revealed a recipe for the conservation of nervous energy. “One of my rules,”’ he said, “is never to make any definite engagements to sea people. I tell a man where I will be about a certain time, but he must take his chances on finding me at his disposal. Throughout all of my public life I have found the greatest strain in anticipating interviews. That is to say, the real nervous tension comes not so much from listening to the man with whom you are engaged at the time, but from the consciousness that other men are waiting their turn for an interview. If you dispose of each case as it comes up to you without endeavoring to an- ticipate the cases to follow, as Is neces- when you make definite engage- ments, you escape the greatest waste of nerve force in the conduct of large enterprises. The men who need most to see you know when is the best time to see you, and you need not worry about them presenting matters to you if they really need your attention.”’ PRIDE AS AN ASSET. HEN Mr. Francis had his capacity for large under- takings he was urged to move New York. Opportunities for business success On a greater scale saryv shown

to were laid before him. His reply was “No, I shall remain where I am I have six boys. St. Louls ts a better place than New York for raising sons.”’ Associations, Mr Francis count for a great deal in the formative period of manhood. His advice to young men today is to make the most of the stimulus to be found in good environ- ment. “I think,’’ said Mr. Francis, pur- suing this thought, ‘‘one of the most po- tent incentives to effort that can be in- stilled into young men is pride of an- cestry.

to time he wiped heavily his face witil a large red handkerchief. Jim had killed three men in his day, but “hon- orably’’—that is, in a fair fight risking his own life and in retaliation for the slaying of his own kinfolk. That Jim Was “‘touched’’ there could be no doubry, and when the morning service was dis- missed it was freely predicted that ‘Jim ‘ed jine ’em”’ before the meeting was ver, Herrod made Jim Jackson's place his headquarters, since it was the only’ house for miles around that -had a) ‘‘spare room.'"’ Besides it was close to) the schoolhouse—not quite a mile—anid) Jim was noted for his hospitality. | The meetings continued with increased) interest. The third night ‘‘Long Jim’”’ “went forward” and the next day was baptized in a nearby creek and in the presence of several hundred onlookers, who were greatly impressed. After this event the schoolhouse was too small to hold the people, who came from far and wide to hear the young evangelist whol had succeeded in converting ‘‘Long Jim” Yackson. : As tbr Eunice, these were golden days for her. Shy and almost speechless at first in the presence of this magnetic young man from the bluegrass country, she had come to be quite herself in his company. The hours she roamed over the hills with him she lived all over again at night in her dreams. She seemed to live in a new world and was half afraid sometimes to move. fear- ing she might wake from a most won- derful day dream. One night, after a grand the schoolhouse, when forward,” Herrod out by the stile watched the stars the large outlines service at seven had ‘gone lingered with Eunle block, where they and gazed long at of Old Pilot, whose bald head rose majestically from out a sea of pines. It was a perfect night, and under the spell and poetry of the moonlight Herrod suddenly put his arm about the girl, and, drawing her close to his side, kissed her once, twice, three times; passionately kissed her. And she lid not struggle nor show any displea- sure; instead she clung to him as if af- frighted and her face, which was usu- ally flushed, went very pale. Later, in his room, Herrod was sorry for what he had done. He had not meant to deceive the girl or raise any vain hopes within her breast. On the contrary, he had taken. pains to have her know that his long tramp of eight miles every other day to the nearest postoffice was to get those whitest of envelopes addressed to him in a femi- nine hand. By request young-Herrod took as his last sermon the one that he had preached at the first service—the ser- mon on the Golden Rule. Never dtd he preach it so eloquently. He plead for ‘‘a square deal’ for every living soul; for the returning of good for evil. That night, after the hand-shakine was over and Long Jim and his fam- ily and their honored guest had gone home, Herrod and Euntle strolled out to the stile block again.

WALLACE [9 GAINST PLAYIN sAMES IN SPRING Series: With Cardinals and Game With-G.. B. C. Only Probable we Early Contests. WANTS. TO WORK ALONE Manager Believes He Can Attain Bettér Results by Having His Own Teams Meet.

By CLARENCE F. LLOYD. Aside from the seven-game series with the Cardinals and a probable contest or two w «the Christian Brothers’ Col- lege tealfi,, the Browns will play no ex- hibitio whatinees this spring. That’s be- cause Lisieer Bob Wallace believes he can better prepare his athletes for the real championship season that follows by having “his first and second outfits get togprner, Wallace is against the early season mix-ups. If it wasn’t an annual fixture end already dawn in black and white, he would "be willing to cut out the games with the, Cardinals. He felt that way during the Browns stay in Hot Springs last Maroh, when Bob and Roger Bres- nahan engaged in a long-distance tilt over th \hiiihber of games to be played. a at Griffith of the Cincinnati Reds also wanted Wallace to agree to a daily struggle. But Wallace told the “Old Fox" that there was nothing do- ing. Tleydinally agreed on nine, but mixed in only seven. a . . *s Series of Seven Games. The BnowWns and Cardinals wil] again Play sd mw'games this spring, according to Wx ce. That number will stand unless Wpaiiager Bresnahan again wants a longee series,, Which is hardly prob- able.

Should he be up for sale Pittsburg, for example, would pay $10,000 for him tomorrow without a wink —and would not get him at the price.

EW YORK is to consider a Dill which will make it a misd®meanor to sell a baseball ticket for more than its face value. It doesn’t mention the crime of the club owners who raise the face value price of world’s series seats to three times the regular rates. MAY STRETCH BANTAM LIMIT. Regier tere bantamweights are hoping that Harry Forbes does not beat Coulon when they meet at Kenosha, Monday. Should the former title-holder prove a comeback, he says he will im- mediately advance the bantamweight limit to 118 pounds—the figure at which he is best able to battle. Forbes is doing 116 at 6 p. m. for Coulon and it is.evidently taking his life’s blood to get there. He probably will be beaten, as he was once before in the same town by the same foe. But if he wins and accepts matches for the title at 118 pounds he will be crowding the class into the featherweight divi- sion, which is 122 ringside, as interpreted by Abe Attell. Four pounds is alto- gether too narrow a margin to separate any two pugilistic divisions. * . JUST LIKE McFARLAND,. ORBES is in much the same predic- ament as Packey McFarland. He’s a shade too heavy for the bantamweight

CAN'T BUY STARS, A* outlaw league with backing has a real ‘‘cinch”’ in getting materia] from the big leagues. In organized base- ball when a player is wanted and a cash transaction is involved, dreamland sums are asked and paid—at least on paper. Many players are beyond price, their owners declining to part with them for any mere money consideration. Marty O'Toole cost $22,500 and he was only a minor league twirler at the time. No sum could buy. men Iike Ed Walsh, division and a trifle too light for the feather. McFarland is in the same re- lation to the lightweight and welter- weight classes. aa COULD FIGHT AS FEATHER. ORBES could very well go into the featherweight division, if he thought he could trim Abe Attell, now. In the past it was nip and tuck between this pair. Once, in fact, they fought for the featherweight title and Forbes was knocked out in the fifth round. But it was a ‘“‘rope punch” accident that did it, Harty having the better of the mill up to the time of the ‘good night.” Abe merely sidestepped Forbes’ rush, and the little whirlwind slammed into the ropes. These threw him back into

Christy Mathewson, Walter Johnson or | a. Cobb. a punch that Attell had waiting for him ,and the stuff was off.

Tim O’Brien in a Peevish Mood, Quits Innisfails

Manager Foley Is Not Depending on Big Fullback for Game With St. Leos Sunday. Big Tim O'Brien, fullback, has quit the Innisfails. Tim hasn't notified Man- ager Willie Foley of the Athletic Park second placers, but he has failed to re- port for play since the Innisfails met and defeated the Tacony eleven of Phil- adelphia Christmas day and “Foley isn't depending on the big fellow, any: more. O’Brien didn't play with the Innits- fails against Tacony. It was reported that he was ill, but lately it has been learned that he was kept out of the con- test by Foley for. some other reason. Hence, it is belleved that the big felow is peeved, Manager Foley says he will probably play “Chuck” O'Berta at fullback in O'Brien's place. If not, Vince Harris. who has subbed there during O'Brien's absence, will pastime. The Innisfails meet the St. Leos Sun- day in one of the most important con- tests of the season.

In your day a »all player had to have the backing of the Congressman of his district, the Mayor, the Town Council and other in- fluence to even get an interview with a baseball manager. If he.managed to get a job with a major league team he hustled to hold it. Now, they have high-salaried scouts, with large bundles of cale, out look- ing for them and begging them to come in and be signed. It's the difference between class and mass. Too many is a plenty. The shadow of the “Black Hand’ ’is hov- ering over Fireman Flynn. Some people claim that the fact that there is $600,000,000 invested in automo- biles accounts, in @ measure, for the high cost of living. Now give us the dope on the aeroplanes and we'll figure the cost of high living.

Pikeway Five Plays Tigers Again Today

Washington U. Basket Ballers Win First Game From Missouri, 30—12.

With visions of ultimately landing the Missouri Valley basket ball champion- ship, the Washington U. five will tackle the Missouri team this afternoon, hope- ful of victory. In the first game of the championship season here, the Pikeway team humbled the Royal Bengals Fri- day, 30—12. At no time during the game did the State team prove dangerous. Berryhill, the Pikeway star, who has been on the sick list for several days, returned to his task and played a bang-up game, counting 20 of the winners’ 30 points. Berryhill was easily the star of the game. He shot with unerring accuracy and early in the game gave his team a lead that it never relinquished. Missouri recently beat Ames twice, but lost to Nebraska. Saturday's game at the Pikeway gym- nasium will start at 3 o’clock. The line- up: Washington.

“We Have Been Offered More Money Than We Need,” Declares President John T. Powers — Chicago Turned Down.

By W. J. O'CONNOR. HICAGO capital, which Bt: wie was sought to finanee the St. Louis club in the New ganization, Columbia League, an outlaw or- will be refused, according to John T. Powers, president of the new disturbing element. ‘“We have been offered more money by St. Louisans than we ever will need,’’ timistically. “There'll be no stock for sale; it’s all bargained for now. The local club will be the banner one of the league and I’ m agreeably surprised with the outlook.’ All doubts as to the sincerity of the new league promoters entering St. Louis were dispelled Friday afternoon when negotiations were closed for the usé of Handlan’s Park, Grand and Laclede avenues. This is one of the ideal loca- tions for a ball park in St. Louis. It is on a direct line with the most thickly settled residential districts in the city and more accessible than any other baseball plant. Build New Park at Once. Improvements will be made at once on the park. Work will be rushed to have the new plant ready for occupancy by April 10, when the new league probably will ring up its curtain. The Post-Dispatch’s ‘‘story’’ of Pow- ers’ intention to fight organized base- ball under the Sherman anti-trust law caused a mild sensation Friday. Base- ball men in all parts of the.country were asked for their opinion on the subject, but all the big moguls have been careful to make no direct reply. Garry Herrmann of Cincinnati, like Col. Hedges of the Browns, has come out with the statement that organized baseball will not fight the Columbian League. President -Powers answered this Saturday by shouting: “They can'’t.’’ Then Powers reiterated that his league was being built by seasoned base- ball men, who would organize on a safe and sane basis. Powers talked at length with the writer Friday evening. He said: ‘“‘Basebail salaries of big league play- ers have been sadlv exagserated bv the press. Rarely is a player’s salary known to anyone but the player and the mag- nate. Now I want to say that for $250 a month I can get a host of good major league players. For twice that amount I can get stars. ‘In starting our new league we find that getting plavers will be the least of our woes, The park proposition Is the worst. However, we have an ideal location in St. If@uis: another good in Chicago; still another in Detrolt. Louisville park the former home of American Association in that citv. In Kansas City we have the Gor- don-Kupple field. with a seating capacity of 11,000 (and Danny Shay for manager). In Milwaukee we have a good park cinched, with Judge Willis Melville at the head of the club. Cleveland will take care of it- self. The eighth franchise wlll go to either Columbus, Pittsburg or Cincinnati. ‘‘Yes, we are sincere. Furthermore we're determined. We'll be playing ball in the spring and we'll have a good ball club. ‘‘T see it has been pointed out that big League wil! wreck us by stealing ——_— | Time and Cues - one Our is the our

HERRMANN ANSWERS POST-DISPATCH QUIZ Coes HERRMANN, owner of the Cincinnati “Reds and chairman of the National Commission, has answered the question asked through these col- umns yesterday. The Post-Dis- patch Friday told of Mr. John T. Powers’ intention to fight organized baseball under the Sherman antl- trust law and then set up the ques- tion: ‘Is baseball a trust? Is it an organization in restraint of trade?’ In answer to Powers’ declaration: “We are not fighting capital with capital and do not seek a fight with any person or combination,” Mr. Herrmann said. ‘“T have nothing to say regarding Mr, Powers’ statement, It is possible. how- ever, that he misinterprets the attitude of organized baseball. We are not fighting him—in fact, we haven't given either of those two leagues more than two minutes of thought In the past sev- eral weeks. I would suggest that they come into the arena and see what sort of people they have to contend with. So far as I am concerned I would tell them all to get into the fight, because we really ought to have something to - make life worth living. The more scrap- pers the merrier the fight.’’

stars. That's what I hope for. Take. for instance, the local situation. Suppose by chance we should get a man of Koney’s stripe. Then the big leagues would come along and double Koney’s salary. He migh: jump us. But what happens? The biz League has thrown down the gauntlet. They have erased the blacklist. They have_tac- itly acknowledged that a baliplayer can jump our league, an outlaw organization, back to the majors. Big Leagues Will Lose. “That will be the making of us. We then can steal every baliplayer in the big leagues and have his services for a short time at least. as he will know that sooner or later he will be returned to the big leagues at a higher salarv. We will have the baliplay ers on our side. We will win. ‘‘However, I do not expect the big leagues to steal our players. On the contrary, I expect them to let us alone, and in that case we propose to demonstrate that there is room for another fast league. playing high-clags ball at popular prices. We have the interest of the fans at heart, and we will demonstrate that before long.’’ Mr. Powers will remain in St. Louls over Saturday. Hie has promised some ‘‘start- ling’’ news for Sunday. It is understo34a that he will name the officiate of the local club and the amount of its capital. Also the most likely manager. an item which sure.) will interest the Ca rdinal fans oe — awe eee
