AID OF UNCLE SAM
IS THE CHIEF TOPIC BEFORE THE
NICARAGUA CANAL CONVENTION.
Senator Morgan Discusses the Financial
Bearings of tho New Project as Con-
oerned with tho Action of Congress
The Convention Adjourns without Dav.

New ORLEANS, La, Dec. 1.-Senator
Morgan, chairman Of the Senate committee
on foreign relations, delivered his speech to
the Nicaragua canal convention this morn
ing. This speech has been looked forward
to as the backbone Of the present wide
spread agitation to influence the action OF
Congress. Senator Morgan declared that
he thought there would be another conven-
tion and that the effect of the movement
would be tremendous.
He INSISTED that the present Senate bill
providing for the endorsement Of 800, 600,
600 Of bonds should be pressed to n passage.
He saidsthat the canal company was will
ing to donate to the government of the
United States $40, 900, 900 of the bonds in
order to lodge the control Of the canal in
Washington. The senator gave it as his
opinion that the concession of a neutral
strip OF land along the canal by Nicaragua
would prove to be really the cesslon Of SO
much territory to the United States. 1t
was simply a question now whether the ad-
vocetes of the canal could modify the bill
now in Washington TO meet the views OF
Congress.
The afternoon session was consumed In
10minute addresses. Then the convention
adoDted
The Following Resolutions:
!. That it Is the paramount duty OF this
government to aid in the construction Of the
Nicaragua canal.
z. That this convention respectfully urge
the Congress Of the United States to take
such steps and give such financial aid as
will insure the speedy completion Of said
canal at the minimum cost thereof, taking

The mail which left Louisville Thurs
day night for Hot Springs bore to Louis
Roger Browning his unconditional re-
lease from the Louisville club. At the
meeting of the directory that afternoon
it was decided to let old Petey go. The
Louisville club has no use whatever for
him now that Wolf has been signed as
an extra man, and he will accordingly
be turned adrift. Browning owes his
present position to his own Obstinacy.
Manager Chapman offered him $4,000
but Pete would not have it. He wanted
$500 or nothing. That was more
money than the club cared to pay him
and the team was consequently made
up without him.

Supt. Henderson informed the manage

Sunday. This is quite disappointment
to the management as we'll as to
the contestants. The result will be to
make closer finish tomorrow
night. All the women now OH the

full day to rest they will be in shape to
make a hot finish. Neither of the four
leaders, Aggie Harvey, Nine. Tobias,
Molle Harvey and Emily Stevens, have
a "cinch" on first place. There is but
a small gap between any Of them.
Any one of the four may improve
more than the others and thus
be in position to decide the
contest differently from what appears
now to be probable. Aggle Harvey is
in the lead, but Tobias is following her
closely. Little Stevens, who has done
remarkable work for girl who was
never in long race before, dropped off
little yesterday, and last night she and

Both the st. Paul and the Minneapo-

not been able to do any outdoor practlc-

work in the open air has greatly handl-
capped them and that when they begin

badly stiffened up and will not round
up for good work for couple OF weeks.
While they have been alternating IN

Western league teams have been un-

of the fact that the news is many years
old. Uncle is not a first baseman by
choice. but by necessity. He played
third base until his throwing arm Quit,
when he shifted over to first base. That
was years ago. Since that time he has
tried every form Of liniment and treat
ment known to science without avail.
He has even tried the heroic remedy or
having his shoulder bliStered, but the
seat of the trouble has never been
reached. His arm grows better and
worse by turns. but is never wholly
well. The fact that Uncle has glass
arm might have been published each
day for the last ten years"
