One Of the questions propounded
by the gold men is: If 37lA grains
of silver can be made worth a dol
lar, why cannot 37iA grains of cop
per be made worth a dollar. A suf-
ficient answer TO this is that an at
tempt to do so would be unconsti-
tutional. The advocates of free
coinage are not demanding an ex-
pertinent such as the coming of
copper would be, but are asking for
the restoration of a money system
that operated successfully for a
hundred years.

The rains which began falling in
this section last Friday have fully
insured an enormous yield of corn,
but the rainfall has been exceed
ingly heavy for this time of year.
There was a good rain last Friday,
rain Saturday night and Sunday,
rain again Monday and more
dampness Tuesday.
1t lie now thought that there is
not the least possible chance for an
even partial failure of the corn crop

SUITS NOT BUILT FOR RAIN.
How the Browns Were Changed into

The Capitals and the Cliffburns played
a very brilliant game yesterday at Capitol
Park, the former winning by the close score
of 10 TO 8. The game abounded in pretty
plays, no less than four double plays being
made The game was not decided until
the last man was out. I,
BY losing the Cliffburns dropped down to
tie with the Young Stars at 800 per cent,
while the Capitals moved up to tie with
the Independents at 400.
The game this afternoon will be between
the Eastern Buds and Independents, and. as
the loss of the contest to the Buds would
mean TO drop back to third place, they will
strive hard to win, while the Independents
are determined to take a fall out OF the
East Washington boys. -
Tomorrow the Hamiltons and Potomacs
will meet, and it will be necessary for the
latter team to win to remain at the top OF
the heap. The Hamiltons are putting up a
strong game at present, and it would not be
surprise to see them win the contest.

SLAVIN DID NOT WIN.
His Bout With Baker in Philadel-
phia Ended in Draw.

Philadelphia, July 2l.-The benefit of
a knowledge of boxing was made evident
last night at the Caledonian Club, in the
contest between Henry Baker and Patrick
SIavin. Baker did not have any tco great
knowledge Of boxing at that, but he had
enough to make Slavin look like big, un.
calmly animal with as much grace and
skill as ali elephant. Baker, in the first
round, showed that he was quick and
clever Oh his feet. slavin went right at
him with the evident intention Of doing
Baker up in short order
Slavip was head and shoulders above
Baker, and lad the advantage in reach.
When the.Australian rushed at Baker the
latter ducked away neatly and evaded
the punch. Slavin looked nettled, and
then he started at Baker again and again.
The latter got away lightly. Then Baker
let 60 his right and landed it ON Slayin's
jaw. Shortly afterward time was called.
The entire contest was repetition of
these tactics, Slavin leading and nearly al
ways missing, owing to Baker's cleverness.
| The first three rounds tired Slavin consid-
| erably, and for the rest of the bout he was
not near as active as in the beginning.
| Bakers coolness won him the plaudits of
| the spectators.
Slavin could not land good punch at any
stage of the game. and the slippery manner
Baker got away from Slavin made the big
fellow look very awkward and clumsy. ~
the last two rounds Baker seemed to be
watching his chance to land Il good punch
on Slavin. He fiddled around with his
left, and sent his right in a couple of times.
One of the punches made Slavin's head
rattle, but it was not enough to do any
great damage.
| The bout ended with both men mixing it
up at lively rate in the middle of the
ring. The judges could pot agree on ii de-
cision, and the referee decided it draw.
Many Of the spectators were of the opin-
| ion that Baker had the best of the contest.
In the preliminary bout Jack Ward was
awarded the decision over Frank Farley in
| five and half rounds. Farley was in.
jured by fall in the first round. Jack
Foley got the decision over Pat Donovan.
Tom Kelly, of Hoboken, stopped ]. Burns
of Portland, Me-, in the first round.

New York, July 21.-Herbert Bonnell,
secretary of the New York club, yesterday
emphatically denied that there was any
Likelihood that President Andrew Freed
man would dispose OF his interest. This
report" said Mr.. Bonnell, lis simply and
solely another of the falsehoods that have
been circulated at Mr.. Freedman's ex-
pense. No one has even approached him
with an noffer to buy outhis interest, for they
know that he would not sell.
1T is a goodpaying business, and MT.
Freedman has no reason TO give up his inter
est. The story that the finances of the club
bavesurfered owing toM Mr. .Freedman'sman-
agemcnJ is absolutely without foundation.
As matter of fact, we are more than
pleased with our receipts, in view of the
poor showing made by the club, and there is
no danger that the club will be in financial
straits"
