rington for reduction of bail in the case
of Joseph c. Furnace, who is in Jail charged

Star, bond was fixed at $4,000 after Fur
mace was rearrested. This amount the de-
PENDANT was unable to give. When the ap
plication was made today Prosecuting At
torney Mullowny declined to agree to a re-
ductton in the amount of bond unless an
extremely favorable report should be re-
ceived concerning General Greelys condi-
ton. In the event of the receipt of such
a report. he said. he would consent to the
acceptance of a bond of 81 900.
Late this afternoon. when the prosecut-
ing attorney was informed of the bulletin
issued in the case. he declined to reduce
the bond. Until bond is given Furnace will
remain in Jail. Today Lewis Furnace
brother of the prisoner. called at the Po-
lice Court to interest himself in his be-
half. He is magistrate at Phoebus, Va,
short distance from Old Point. Furnace
1t is stated, is nephew of the late Mr..
Phoebus, who owned the Hygeia Hotel, at
Old Point.

that while such settlement must be ratified

the power of the Commissioners, they shall
so amend tAe police regulations as to pro-
hibit the purchase of secondhand plumbing

Spirited Game of Basket Ball with
the Light Infantry.

the Light Infantry.
Outplayed at every point, in the hardest
fought contest ever witnessed in the
Washington Light Infantry armory, the In
fantry basket ball team met defeat last
night at the hands of the crack team from
the Eastern Athletic Club. The score was:
Eastern Athletic Club, 16; Washington
Light Infantry, IL.
The game was played under protest and
was witnessed by over GOO persons, the
largest gathering ever assembled in Wash
ington to witness this excellent indoor
sport. Harry c. Collifiower, who played
left back last night, played on the Cleve-
land Base Ball Club last season. thereby
becoming a professional. For this reason
formal protest was entered with S. Por-
ter House, president of the District Ma
tional Basket Ball League, by Edward
NeWmeyer, manager of the Infantry team.
Collflower had been registered with the
Amateur Athletic Union, but not reinstat-
ed. President House announced to the man.
ager of the Easterns that Colliflower was
not eligible, whereupon the Easterns stalled
they would leave the floor. Rather than
disappoint the large humber present Mr.
House allowed Colhhower to play, with the
above results.
The game from the start proved to be
the Easterns as could be seen by their eX-
cellent team work. Thompson scored fine
goal from the field, shortly followed by the
Infantry scoring three free goals on fouls.
The EaSternS were allowed two free
throws but missed the basket. Dunn made
a pretty overland throw and landed square
in the basket, making the score to 4 in
his teams favor. Another overland
throw by Dunn made the score to T. when
this same plucky little player seized the
ball and landed another goal The soldier
boys were allowed another free throw and
Thompson of the Easterns scored a goal
from the field just before the sound Of the
bell for the first half Gooding of the
Easterns, who had been playing a good
game was injured In the first half, and
was replaced by Hughes.
AT the opening of the second inning
Thompson and Moffutt got in their long
throws and Taylor of the Infantry made
some excellent plays. Kendall also did
good work and tried hard to keep the ball
in the Infantry field In this half Gates
retired, and his place was taken by Evans
who held down the position at home goal
in creu.table style. The Infantry made an
effort to run up its score. Taylor and
Lotus scored, and Burgess turned a COM
plete somersault in his effort to score
Shreve scored another free throw which
was followed by an underhand throw by
Taylor amid loud applause. Shreve was
about to land another free throw when the
gong sounded with the score 10 to IL in
favor Of the E. A. c.
The playing of Dunn, THOMPSON. Boyd
and Hughes of the Easterns, and Evans,
LOTUS, Taylor and Burgess was the feature
of the game.
The usual informal hop followed the
game.

SENATOR MORGAN'S STRONG ARGUMENT Presents Figures Showing Me-
 ceSsity of Canal. COTTON TRADE BENEFITED The Report Shows That All the Cult States Would be Wonderfully
 Helped by This Outlet to
 the Far East
COTTON TRADE BENEFITED

Washington, 31.-(Special )-Senator Nor gan, chairman of the senate committee on inter-oceanic canal, is continuing his splen- did fight for the authorization of the con- struction of a ship canal across Nicaragua. He has presented report from his com mittee showing how the cotton trade would be benefited by the construction of the pro posed canal. The report shows that all the gulf states would be wonderfully benefited by such a canal, citing the demand for raw cotton in Japan and the far east as an argument, which, with the Nicaraguan canal built, could be filled almost exclu- svely by the American product. The report goes on to say:
 b. "rhe The current season illustrates what will probably result from an isthmian canal. Of the 100000 bales as shipped this season, 169, 900 went from the United States ports on the Pacific, S7,OOO from gulf-ports (New Or leans, Galveston and Pensacola), and 4,OOO
