INTERIORS DRUB
WAR DEPARTMENT
New Team Plays Ball at the Start
But are Unable to Keep Up
the Pace

A baseball team from the War Depart
ment made its inaugural appearance in
the Departmental League yesterday. at
National Park. when they played with
the Interior team. They could not be
called a crack aggregation, but they
managed to make their opponents work
very hard to gain a victory over them
by score Of IS to 9.
Up TO the seventh inning there was
nothing TO the game but the War De-
partment team, but In that session they
took Wolfe from the box and allowed
Herring to try his hand This lost the
game, as the Interiorites found him
whenever they needed runs, and man
aged to chalk up twice as many tallies
as the War Department lads. Russell
and Bradley did some long distance
swatting for their team, and the whole
Interior team played good game in the

RARE RACING AT saa
COLISEUM TRACK
Those Who Witnessed the Events
Treated to Program of Pleasure
and Surprise.

Patrons Of the Coliseum were treated
night. There were three very exciting
races, and all of them worked the large
crowd up TO the screaming pitch. 1t was
ideal racing weather. and all of the
events were run off without any delay.
The first event of the evening was the
first heat OF the flve-mile motor cycle
race on single machines. between Ray
Duer, CT Buffalo, and Johnnie Atchinson.
of Baltimore. This was fast heat, and
at no time during the five miles were
the riders more than ten yards apart.
The last lap was very exciting and
brought the vast throng to it's feet.
when the Buffalonian's front wheel
SKINNED across the line just the barest
fraction OF a second before his doughty
opponent
The second heat was also very spirit
ed. although both of the men took
turns at leading.
For the first four miles they hung to-
gether, and were not yard apart, but
at the beginning of the final mile Duer
opened up his machine, and led until
the last lap. when Atchinson also did a
little opening and spurted ahead of him
and won by wheel. The riders went
on the track for the third heat, but Atch-
inson's machine went bad. and after
endeavoring to get it in order, he fin
ally threw Up the sponge. and Duer
rode q three-mile exhibition race.
This was great sport. The crowd went
wild. and the Iider was cheered Justify
as he skinned around the bowl at a
clip of 6 mile ir lis.
He made the three miles in the fast
time of 4 minutes IA 3-5 seconds. The
time for the first two heats was ! min
utes 22-4-5 seconds. and minutes 80
seconds. respectively.
Duer won the race taking best two
heats out of the three.

An Abominable Phase.

THE apathy of the authorities after
the catastrophe of st. Pierre is the most
abominable phase of the entire situa-
ton. Those who had entered the town
three days after the eruption have told
me that the cries OF the dying were even
then heard in the streets. How many
of the St. Pierre inhabitants died this
horrible slow death is impossible to as
certain.
Two soldiers from Balata have per-
sonaily told me of their entering the city
on May 10, and of hearing the groans
and shrieks of those entombed alive or
crippled by fire"

Agrees With the President.
Now. Nj. Chairman, the treaty of
Paris does not confer on the President
the power to fl the status OF the people
Of the Philippine Islands, but it imposes
the duty on Congress. l agree most
heartily with what President Roosevelt
has said. and it seems to me after we
have had dec arations from officers OF
this Government who are not charged
with responsibility in this matter. that
now, today four years nearly after we
have entered there, when we are passing
bill, comprehensive act, an organic
act for the government o: the peoples
OF the islands. which looks far into the
future 1t is the duty of Congress to car
ry out what is its duty under the treaty
of Paris and declare what the policy of
this people is to be.
Il do not propose, Mr.. Chairman, to
attempt to discuss here the general
question of what shall be our ultimate
relations with the Philippine Islands. or
how soon we shall withdraw, If ever we
do withdraw. But there Is one part of
this bill that, it seems to me will fore
clcsa this question unless we write in
this law notice to the people who will
act under it what our purpose is.
This bill opens almost every stick
of timber, every acre of land. every
nugget of ore, to the people of these
islands, and to the citizens of the United
States We might say to the world
Now our people Will go in there; capt
talists will go in there like locusts.

spectful, because It grows out of the
commercial spirit. but they Will make
Investments there, and after they have
invested. II the proposition is made TO
take the islands from under the juris-
diction and the sovereignty of the Uni
ted States, they will come to this Con-
gross and say that they have Invested

they will appeal to us to protect them.
