Yesterdays games made change in
the standing of teams in the Interstate
League, and the race promises to be ex-
ceedingly warm among the four lead
ers from this time until the finish. By
taking double header from Youngs-
town yesterday, Jack Glasscock's Fort
Wayne team passed Toledo. 1t will be
surprising if Mansfield does not also
pass the Mud Hens before the finish
of the season. Toledo plays exceed
ingly well on it's home grounds, and has
been very fortunate in having so many
home games scheduled. The Wheeling
friends of Capt. Glasscock take their
hats off to him this morning. Wheeling
is away out of the race for champion
ship honors this year, but will be we'll
UP among the leaders next season.
Since the pennant cannot come to
Wheeling, the fans" here will rejoice
that it is very likely to be captured by
a Wheeling manager Next year the
pennant winners will have Wheeling
to beat out.

"Why do I have to go?' she asked

She blushed and started out

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-A special from
Washington says: General Miller's ex-
spedition has landed on Guimaras island.
three miles from Iloilo, without opposi-
ton, General Otis cables from Manila.
Landing was necessary because Of the
crowded condition of troops on the
transports. Experience has proved that
soldiers lose spirit and fighting qualities
when confined long on board ship. so the
War department asked General Otis to
ascertain if it was possible for General
Miller to land his expedition near
1loilo. He cabled that it was and was
then instructed to order landing.
It was deemed i1,advisable to have
this expedition rel urn to Manila with
out having landed. because it was
feared the natives Of Luzon would think
the Fllipinos at Iluilo had repulsed the
Americans.
The presidents nolicy Of l,aciication
will be continued. and no attempt to
land at Iloilo will Ee made at present.
