UP AGAINST TRUST FACTS.

The Republicans have never ceased TO
worry about the facts In regard TO prices,
wages and the cost OF living, under Dingley
bill trust rule, rs presented In the last Dem
ocratlc campaign book. withstanding
that with each attempt TO get away from or
disprove these facts they work themselves
deeper into the trust mire, yet they are fool.
ish enough TO continue their spasmodlc
struggles Mr.. Hill, OF Connecticut, made
desperate effort last week TO prove, by the
table of prices in the Democratic campaign
book, that the prices Of the articles on the
free list had advanced more from 1895 to
1902 than did The prices Of the articles on
the dutsble list. He took all Of the II AT.
tclts on the Tree list and showed that the
prices Of these advanced % per cent Then
he selected 81 articles IRON the ia on the
dutiable list aud, amid Republican applause,
showed that the prices of these rose only 154
per cent from 1895 To 1902
Judge Griggs, OF Georgia, chairman of the
Democratic Congressional Committee, got
after Mr.. Hill and simply pulverized him
Not only did he select another list of 81 i'm
poriant articles from the campaign book list,
the prices Of each and all of which are con
trolled by tariff protected trusts and which
advanced an average OF II per cent from
1895 TO 1902, but be showed that all but four
of the 20 per cent advance in price showed
by the II free-list articles was due to the
enormous advance In the prices OF sisal and
binder Irvine, and that the very high prices
OF these two articles was due TO the cruel
war 10 the Philippines
Again, In the list Of ia articles on the
dutiable list Mr.. Hill found one the price of
which was higher at one time 10 1896 than
II was in 1909. This one was wire nails.
Judge Griggs showed that the high price of
wire nails in 1895 was due 10 temporary

Washington. April 6-At a conference
between President Pulliam of the Ma
tional baseball league and his staff OF
umpires, held at Old Point Comfort,
radical steps were taken to enforce
rules for the prevention of kicking and
rowdyism1 at professional games. An
important construction relating to the
rights of Sitchers and their movements
when in the box and settling a question
which has long been under discussion
was placed on rule 20. The new con-
struction on this rule states that the
pitcher. in taking his position. shall
place no -art of either foot back OF the
rubber nor shall he take more than on
step in delivering the bail to the bats
man which viii do away with all pre-
nminary steps allowed under the pres,
emit rule either to the rear or side of

A striCter Interpretation of the rules
pr9hibitn- the batsman from inter.
lerlns with the catcher. and the rules
prohibiting the infielders from inter
Ist ln- with base runners when caught
between bases was also agreed upon.
together with the following new re-
qdirements and interpretations:
40 Datsman viii hereafter be allowed
10 taAe first when hit by a slowly
delivered ball, the umpire to be the
judge of such speed.
En- -aasis is laid on the rule re-

Fred Stone Receives Words of Praise
from Gentleman jim Corbett.

New York. April 6.-Jim Corbett has
made a find in the boxing world. The
wonder" is Fred Stone He and
Montgomery are the leading comedians
in The Wizard of o." now playing at
the Majestic theater here.
Stone" said Corbett. lis one of the
cleverest boxers have ever put on the
gloves with. I would back him for any
amount of money il he ever saw fit to
quit the stage and enter the ring.
Strange as it may aa9ear. much OF
Stones cleverness is due to the fact that
he has been on the stage. He is a Won
derful buck dancer, and that makes
him extremely fast on his feet Being
an acrobat. all of his movements, of
course. are quick and agile.
Stone is a magnifcently built man.
He has one of the most perfect phys
iques I ever saw. He stands five feet
eight inches in his stockings, and has
a wonderful pair of shoulders. His
whole body. in fact, is remarka bly,
symmetrical He is very clever with his
left hand and has right that would
put away any one in his class if it
went over He has a very long reach
and lands on me frequently when we
meet As mixer I never saw an anna
teur his equal "
Fred Stone. who is a formerly Of
Kansas man, is making more money on
the stage than most prize fighters are,
making in the ring
