Page Two SPORTING NEWS OF THE DAY, GATHERED FOR THE DETROIT TIMES MOW IF THEY'LL ONLY SHOW US HOW THEY DO ITS By PAUL H. BRUSKE. Today's the day and 3 p. u>. ia th« I* The Tilers begin their second home aerie* against the eastern clubs uud h the pasturage should be succulent and jb abundant I That it is within tha power of tha Champions to retain their proud position at the top of the league race in the battles which are ahead ia a statement upon which the players, the home pub lics and the experts of the other cities where the Tiges have been Lp of lats are almost unani mous. But will they? F’li be It for the writer of this plec* l to go luto theorizing over the peculiat condition which has caused the Tigers to adopt anew formula of winning gnide*, copping a big majority on the road and strenuously struggling to break even at home. However, mayhap they will change their tactics now. If they keep up tbelr road gait there will be nothlug to the remainder of the procession but u joyous processional. It ia a peculiar fact that, in spits of ths fact that ths Tigers won the pennant of 1907 and are proclaimed far and wide the best team in the league this year, the home public has never had an op portunity to gloat as its team tore up the foe on Bennett park in one of those series of consecutive wins which have featured the campaigns of so many other clubs. Such an opportunity is due The supporters and possessors of such a grand team should be permitted at least one such gloat during the sea son. This idea of getting all the win Ming news by ticker and then having the nerves harrowed up by doubtful struggles on the home park is all wrong, opine the faithful fans. With an ideal baseball day over head, Wild Bill Donovan in the boz for the home talent, the tail-end New York club In the hostile role, and a bloodthirsty mob In the stands and bleachers, as well as a goodly sprink ling on the field, everything shapes up for a gloat today but do we get It? The Detroit rooter Is not likely to for get that awful series a little less than m year ago when the Tiges. after as suming the lead In the same sensa tional way, came home und slumped terribly before Philadelphia and New York. Os course there is nobody who will concede that the Tigers are not able to win enough games on the road to leave them at the top at the flulsh but, please, Mr. Jennings, please. Mr. Coughlin, and please Mr. Donovan and the rest, WE WANT TO SEE YOU DO IT RIGHT HERE AT HOME.

There have been no insects observ able on Sam In any town he has play ed this season, since he struck his batting gait- but in Cleveland he has been a storm. Three times yesterday he smote the Joss offerings squarely on the “A. J\ Reuch" and one of them was a clean heimlauf into the right field bleachers, which the Cleveland scribes promptly described as Sam's dally homer. There was one on base at the time and the swat promptly doubled the Tigers' store. Summers allowed two hits up to the time the heimlauf was pulled off. Then he let down a bit and the Naps amassed two more. Totsl four A little knuckle ball; that's all.

This may create some confusion in local circles until it Is knowu that the Joe Jackson mentioned is uot the Official scorer of the team and the dean of the local baseball scHbes, but is an outfielder from the benighted re gions of North Carolina, where he is amassing a batting average of 450 or thereabouts. He was discovered by a I’nited States revenue official who happened to be looking for moonshine ••stills'* in that vicinity and wus tip ped off to President Navln through the medium of the secret service. So runs the tale, at any rate. At taat account, however. Cobb was still counted on to play right, with Craw ford in center. Mclntyre In left and Davy Jones In reserve.

Along the rail 'ho sharps who gather daily to watch tne wo.kouts and suggest to each other where this or that trainer is in ser ious error, the Vendetta talk was al most continuous, whenever the big race of the Blue Ribbon meeting was mentioned. And all this chatter over a horse that has as yet never won a heat and has not a record to his credit'. Os court, part of the Vendetta talk Is perfectly logical. The dark son of Bernadotte was the handiest sort of a second to Amy, Brooks at Terre Haute last week in a race in which both Spanish Queen and Fleming Boy, 2:07 3-4, were contenders.

Don't worry If you feel tired and dragged out —if you have backache and bearing-down pain, headache, dizzy spells, faintness and lack ambi tion. Don’t think It's some trouble peculiar to the sex. Men suffer In the same way when they have kidney trouble. Ask you:self thla question: "Aro 'my kidneys well?"

QUEBEC, July 24.—The main event of Thursday’s tencenteuary celebra tion program, was a notable exchange of speeches between Vice-President Fairbanks and the Prince of Wales, wherein each spoke of the cordial re lations existing between the United States and Great Britain. The prince delivered a message of good will to the American government. An enormous crowd tilled the Place Des Armes, fronting the Chamyialn monument, where the exercises were held. Here the prince received the ad dresses of the American and French representatives, the mayor of Quebec and Anally Champlain himself, repro duced as in the days of old. coming from the mimic reproduction of his original ship, the Don De Dleu, with some 6,000 followers representing every phase of old France in Canada. It was a splendid spectacle. From the citadel the prince is looking across the St. Lawrence at a gigantic uls play of Areworks on the heights of Levis, showing In Aery outlines the portraits of King Edward, the falls of Montmorency and the bettle of Wolfe and Montcalm. In addressing the prince during the exercises, Vice-President Fairbanks said in the course of his speech: “We have no need to fear that the relations between the Uhlted States and Great Britain will ever again be disturbed. We have faith to be* Here that our Aags which grace this historic occasion and which mingle together and sahite each other upon the Plains of Abraham will never con front each other in conflict upon either land or sea." Wales Brings Qood Will. The prince of Wales, in replying to the vice-president, said: “The king, whose earnest desire la always to promote the best and closest relations between nations, has spe cially desired me, as his representa tive. to convey to you. Mr. Vloe-Presl dent of the United States, and to your colleagues not only a hearty welcome but also a warm expression of thanks, both to you and to your government, for your presenoe here on this aus picious occasion. Your presence Is not merely au indication of your interest in this celebration, it 1* an outward and visible sign of the friendship, con cord and good will between ourselves and the great country which you rep resent with so much distinction. •*We think of the United States as having given the example of energy and courage in conquering and culti vating the forests and boundless prairies which now yield harvests and illimitable wealth. We recognize that the presence of representatives of the United States and France among us testlflea to the growth of the spirit of friendship between nations. On that spirit the progress of humanity largely depends, aud I hope and believe true progress will express Itself more and more In years to come. “The high ideal of universal peace and brotherhood may be far from realization, but every act that pro motes harmony among nations points the way toward its attainment. This celebration is such an act. for it ap peals to Canada, to the British em pire and to the whole civilized world. 1 therefore rejoice to be here, to take my part with you durtng those mem orable days In paying homage to Champlain and dotng honor to Que bec.” The historical procession which de flled before the prince was a remark able assemblage of groups, represent ing various periods, including Jacques Cartier and his crew, King Francis I. and his court; Kink Henry IV. and the court of France; Champlain and the crew of the Don De Dleu, the dis coverers LaSalle. Joliet, Marquette, the armies of Montcalm and Wolfe and innumerable other historical characters. Cannon boomed and thousands or visitors cheered when the prince of Wales, surrounded by an eacort of the Royal Northwest mounted police, left the citadel to return the visits of the officers of the British, French and American battleships. The crowd cheered lustily, but not ♦wen the hurrahs for the prince could surpass the outburst In honor of a lit tle grizzled man who rode In the royal train. "Bobs.’’ "Bobe,” “good old Bobs, the crowd shouted In greeting to Earl Roberts, British Aeld marshal of South African force.

HAWKINS REPORT WORTHLESS. SAYS COMMITTEE LATTER’S STATEMENT TO COUN CIL WILL BE ONE LARGE ROA' FOR MAYOR’S ACCOUNTANTS— CITY LOSES ONLY TRIFLE. “Worthless and misleading’’ is the way the council committee on streets characterizes the mayor’s investiga tion of the department of public works, made through N. A. Hawkins Cos. One section of the committee’s finding in regard to the Hawkins re port was read and approved in a meeting Thursday afternoon, and It is a roast from beginning to end. In their report, the aldermen call attention to the fact that they check ed up the Hawkins report in the presence of a member of the firm of N. A. Hawkins Cos. and that he ad mitted the errors found by the com mittee’s accountant, Howard C. Berk. The committee does not attempt an explanation of the motives or methods which caused the bringing in of a re port which contained such reflections on the D. P. W., reflections which were afterward disproven. Some of the committee’s conclusions follow: “That gross errors were made by the examiners for N. A. Hawkins Cos., notably In their report upon the trans actions of the sidewalk department that in some cases transactions were assumed to be Incorrect or Irregular where a thorough investigation would have shown the contrary, and that by reason of the misstatements, errors and Imperfect work done by N. A. Hawkins Co.’s examiners the report submitted by them becomes almost wholly valueless to the city of De troit.” v In regard to the sidewalk division, it la shown that the city loses fl 73. where it was alleged that more than $4,000 was missing. In the permit division, the book keeping system of which was pro nounced by the Hawkins report to be absurd, the committee finds that out of 21.000 transactions, there were but 15 error*, and that parts of these were due to a misunderstanding by Hawkins A Cos. Commissioner Hnarer told the com mittee that he Is ready to make any Improvements In the system of his office that are needful, having already made many changes in the past three years, snd” that he only asks that such changes as may be recommended be made gradually so as not to dis turb the workings of the department. mi Three Million Dollars CAPITAL AND SURPLUS.

THE TRUTH 7 Ho Matter Whom it Heipi or Hurts. I 1 Oid Mr. Taft make a political I CorpOrdllOH> Do mistake in going to Oyster Bay I Not Approve of That w,,h his s^ech of acce P tanct rr submit it to President Roosevelt? I 'Visit to Oyster Bay -wm it hurt him or win it help I him?" is the question that has I Because They Fear the been U p f or debate since the an- I Rootevelt Polici.. L... Than nounc( menl of t e candidate that I They Would the Rooeevelt l Spirit in Taft a. Pr.aid.nt, he would counsel with the presi dent before distributing the i speech. I The question would be easy of answer were it more satisfac- I torily established in the public mind whether Taft would be the kind of president Roosevelt intended in getting him the nomination •r whether he would prove the kind of president the ultra-conser vatives and obstructionists would like to have in Washington. With Mr. Taft more of a certain quantity according to the Roosevelt standard, then with the progressive element the visit would tend to help him as evidence of his good faith. With the reactionary element and those whom Roosevelt has made his enemies by his policies, the visit to Sagamore Hill would r to hurt him. The conclusion that must be drawn from his frankness in going openly to President Roosevelt on this mission is that Mr. Taft is •incere in his announced intention to keep to the Roosevelt path of progression in case he is elected to succeed him. The Democrats will not be quick to concede this point, however. i They will sooner stamp the visit a play to the Roosevelt follow corporations and the corporations for Taft. This would mean that President Roosevelt would have to be a party to such a course or that Roosevelt was being imposed upon and stabbed in the back by.Mr. Taft. The Times does not believe this of President Roosevelt nor of ;JHr. Taft. The Times recognizes in Mr. Taft a clean, able man of honest mind and high purposes, and never has it consented to entertain the suggestion, springing mostly from his enemies, that President Roosevelt has anything in his nature of the hypocrite. The Times has said of Mr. Taft, however, as regarding his qualifications as a president, that he has erred in the estimate of himself, and it has said that President Roosevelt erred in his judg ment when he selected his secretary of war as the man best fitted to pursue in the direction of his progressive policies. The country being divided just now as between its reactionary and reform elements, and it being incumbent upon the country soon to judge between two presidential candidates as representatives of these respective beliefs as to what is best for it, no reflection on Mr. Taft as a man is embodied in the expression of one’s view that he is not the logical man to succeed Roosevelt if another Roosevelt is wanted in the chair. This tyould imply at first glance, it is true, the charge of insin cerity and dishonesty against the candidate in his declaration that if elected he would do as Roosevelt would do, but nothing of the l|kind is meant or intended. The Times’ position simply is that Mr. Taft would not do as Roosevelt would. The Times believes that he would if he could. BUT HE CANNOT. p He is not temperamentally qualified to make that kind of a pres ident. The courage, the stout heart, the aggressiveness and the fight ing spirit first of all necessary for him to qualify are lacking in this even tempered, peaceable, ultra-conservative mind of judicial train fag- y It isn’t the man with policies alone that those interests who have felt the big stick fear. It is the man with policies and the steam in his mind and body Ifto make them felt. The man of initiative is the man they fear and Mr. Taft is not man of initiative ability as his public record clearly shows. That Mr. Taft should be charged with having the support of 'those money-powerful and predatory interests which fear the law [ls but natural. As to his policies theyr care not. HE IS THEIR KIND OF A.MAN. Nevertheless they do not fancy the idea of his taking counsel at MDyater Bay. They are afraid that in case Mr. Taft should be elected president she might get in the habit of that sort of thing. And the corporation organs of the East are taking him to task dor going there. The New York Times says he handed the speech over to the president for the injecting of some of that Roosevelt “powerful ex pression;” some of that aggressiveness and fighting spirit we have j*aid Mr. Taft lacks. The New York paper concedes the wisdom on Mr. Taft’s part getting all the political pointers he can from Roosevelt and prob- Sbly would oppose no move on the part of the Republican candidate which would help elect him, but when he is elected, as the organ of Wall-st. and the powerful corporations, they don’t fancy the idea of turn SAYING THINGS AS ROOSEVELT WOULD SAY THEM OR OF DOING THINGS AS ROOSEVELT WOULD DO •THEM. The corporations regard Taft as president somewhat the same ws The Times does, do they not? The Roosevelt following therefore need not regard the visit to Sagamore Hill as anything more than the perseverance of a man of estimable qualities in the failure to appreciate his shortcomings as the making of a progressive president like Roosevelt was.

W. D. C. MOEBS, REAL ESTATE AND INVESTMENTS. COST OF BUILDING 10 PER CENT LESS j THUN LUST YEAR SUBSTANTIAL REDUCTION IN PRICES OF LUMBER AND OTHER MATERIAL—LABOR MUCH LOW ER AND MORE EFFICIENT. The man who builds his home in Detroit this year will have au advan tage over the fellow who built last year and the one who erects a house next year. This Is the unanimous verdict ot the builders. Slackness of building operations has depressed prices, so that there Is a difference of about 10 per cent lu building new houses, particularly frame structures. Just how long this condition will last is a question, how ever, as prices are* already commenc ing to rise again in sympathy with the general reaction from the financial stringency of the winter and spring The man who wanted to build a house for $3,0t)0 last year can get that same house for about $2,700 now. J.umber, at least the common varie ties such as sldiug. studding, flooring and lath, is from $2 to $5 per thou sand feet cheaper than laat year. Yel low pine has been much reduced In pric e but is going up again as the ef fect of shutting down most of the southern mills becomes apparent. J.abor cost Is the big factor lu the building market, however. Wage scales have been lowered, and only the best men are working at the- union scale in several trades, t’arpeuters who got 40 cents per hour last year and who were scarce at thut price, are working now' at from 30 to 37 1-2 cents per hour, and there are plenty of men. .Masons have cut their scale of wages five cents per hour and plast erers have also come clown. In addition there is a greater ef ficiency of labor as the slackness of work makes men toll harder to retain their places in the competition. In taking up the Items that go to make the-cost of a house, lumber Is from five to 20 per cent lower, mill stuffs and hardwood having depreciat ed least; brick cost just about the same as before; masonry uo:k is cheaper; building hardware Is cheap er; plumbing supplies are the same, hut the labor cost Is less; plastering is six cents per yard less than in 1907; painting is less In cost by about lu per cent; carpenter work Is fully 20 p**r cent cheaper; fixtures are slightly cheaper and are put up at less cost. i And that building is about 10 per cent lower this year on the- aver age,” suys E. 1* Underwood of lu derwood «fc Inuis. “I think 10 per cent Is about the right figure,” assc*nts Hiram 1., Hose who hus been doing a great deal of building "Labor is less than it was." Various lumber and material dealers all say the same thing, that the cost of the things that go to make* up a house* is lower ihun in several years.

VON MILETICH, OF PHILA DELPHIA, JAILED WHILE Hl> FAMILY IS STARVING —HELD ON CURIOUS CHARGE. By VANCE THOMPSON. PARIS, July 24. —Charles von Mile tich, an American citizen of Philadel phia. has been lying In a French Jail for 53 days on what he declares is a "trumped-up" charge of larceny, due to the animosity of his father-in-law and In spite of all the efforts of the American consul to secure his release j or a speedy trial. In April last Mlletlch passed a civ il service examination in \N ashington for th« position of translator ,und brought his wife and their two chib dren abroad for a vacation. His pass port Is dated April 27. He first visited his wife's father, Laurent Noulez. In Belgium, and there, after u few days, his wife’s little sister. Augustine, aged 14, complained to hltn that her father had ill-treated her. Indignant, At this. Mlletlch refused to remain in the house and, with his wife and ba bies. crossed the frontier to Lille, in France. Calls Him an Accomplice. Two days later Augustine appeared at their hotel, saying she had run a wav from home. Mlletlch agreed to take care of her. but that afternoon the police arrested the child, as she had stolen two hundred dollars from her father. After being put through the third degree Augustine signed a statement that Miletlch was l an accomplice in the thefi He was arrested and his lug singe seized together with nil the imonej\ found on him. Augustine and Uie stolen money wt*rey sent back to Father-ln law Nouiez. as under tho French law a child cannot steal from its parents. Mlletlch finally managed to get word to Consul King, of Lille, who is using every effort to secure a prompt trial. King telegraphed to the American' correspondent that she actual charge Is based on a Bel gian extradition warrant of complicity in Augustine's so-called theft from her father, which Is not punishable either in France or Belgium, while the sis ter In law has since admitted before the American cousul tbat Mlletlch was ,aler to Cu* universal demand Tlw I tmnli liiim t hi* ml> 1111 an«i U»c wealth umi tin* enterprise to (irovidf St. Haul's Catholic church.

He feels abandoned and on July 7 tried to himself upon learning that his wife and two small children were sick and penniless here in Lille. Such delay is not for the honor of American pro tection to citizens abroad. I hope you will entreat the embassy to exact im mediate liberty and arrange for dam ages later.” At the American embassy in Paris It was said that French justice would have to follow Us orderly course, even though Augustine hud retracted her statement that MUetlch was her ac complice. International lawyers say the arrest is an outrage, as, even if guilty of the offense charged, Mlletlch haß committed no crime punishable by the laws of either France or Bel gium, and they believe he will have a good case for heavy damages.
