BASE BALL.
First Game of the Season. Webster
Easily Defeats Strouseton.

Saturday was an ideal May day and
drew out a fair sized attendance at the
ball park to witness the meeting of the
rivals OF last season, Webster and
Strouseton. As it was the first game of
the season, local patrons were anxious
rs to how The Webster team would
show up as compared with the pine of
'97. The result OF the game was very
gratifying but the fieldiag OF the boys
was decidedly off color and far inferior
TO what they are capable Of putting up.
This was somewhat excusable as it was
the first time they had been together
and the weather lately has not been
very favorable for practice work. They
more than redeemed the loose fielding
however bv heavy batting. Three
pitchers were used against them but
all met with warm receptions,
home runs, two and three base hits and
singles being pounded out with great
regularity, Sauer leading with a home
run and a three base hit.
The Strouseton's play was a great
disappointment to those expected a hot
game. They were lanentably weak in
every department, but this cannot be
taken as their true form, for rather than
dissapoint the crowd they came up
with IA picked-up aggregation, filed out
with players here, which had never
practiced together and just met on the
field Saturday. Love at shortstop and
Owens at third base did fairly well. At
the bat and on the coaching lines
Hawkins and Love showed up well.
The result oT:.the game was never in
doubt as Strouseton was clearly out
cIassed. II Webster keeps up the bait
ing gait it has started out with and
fields as it eau field, it will have to be a
strong team that lowers it's color.
The game was acceptably umpired by
E. f. Green, of Wheaton. Score IVY
innings:
7 s 9 Total.

10 REDUCE THE RAILWAY CHARGES.
An Amendment which Cuts Down

iteration 10 lie Investigated.
0 REDUCE THE RAILWAY CHARGES.

| Washington, May 6.-The consideration
OF the postofflce appropriation bill was
resumed, the pending question being upon
the amendment offered yesterday by Mr..
Pettigrew of South Dakota, providing for
reduction Of 90 per cent in the amount
| paid TO railways for the transportation OF
mails.
Concerning the amendment Mr.. Quay
pointed out that section 3 of the pending
| bill provides for a joint committee, con-
sisting OF three members OF the senate
and three Of the house, to make thorough
investigation of the subject touched by the
amendment offered. He added that the
committee on postofflces and post roacs
already had made partial investigation OF
the matter and had before IL for exanina-
ton the officers of the principal railways.
This investigation had shown that the pay
ment OF the transportation Of mail was
much less in proportion than that paid for
the transportation of freight or express
matter Mr.. Quay then had read some of
the statements made on the subject to the
committees, In order, as he sarcastically
said. Ito prepare for the political datribes
which are to follow my remarks.
After the reading of the statements by
the clerk Mr.. Quay said the addition OF
Mr. Pettigrew's amendment would result
in reducing the compensation OF the rail-
ways S6,000,000 without any advice as to
results or righteousness of the action.
He maintained that the Investigation au-
thorized by the pending bill ought 10 be
made before any action was taken.
Mr.. Pottigrew supported his amendment.
He said that the statements presented by
Mr.. Quay were purely OK parte in Their
nature. The railway officials presented
their own statement of the facts and drew
their own conclusions from them. He did
not regard this as evidence. Mr. Pettigrew
maintained, in the course of an analysts
of mail and express statistics, that tie
government paid ten times as much for the
transportation Of mails as the express COM
panies paid for the transportation of their
matter
Mr. Faulkner Nv. vaD presented a
strong argument against the Pettigrew
amendment. He declared that it would de-
stroy many Of the railways in his own
state, fully one-third of those in the
southern States and many throughout the
country. He was, however, in favor of the
creation of commission as provided for
in the bill. thoroughly to Investigate the
whole subject and submit It's report and
recommendations.
Mr.. Quay moved that when the senate
adjourn TODAY it be TO NEE. on Monday
next The motion was agreed to.

military affairs committee, presented a

West, May 6.--tCopyrighted. 1928, by the
Associated Press.)-The blockade of the
Cuban ports by the warshps is as effective
as ever. No vessel has entered one of the
bloclsaded ports. 1t is monotonously weary
work drifting idly about in the burning sun
during the day and patrolling the coast Mt
night with only an occasional chase for di-
version. Therefore it Is not astonishing
that the officers and men OF the fleet are
locking eagerly forward to the day when

joicing and there were many hearty cheers
