BUTTE, Aug. 27.-It appears to be
the idea of the baseball magnates
who are here for a conference to take
place today that no attempt should
be made to add another club this sea-
son and to limit the series to five
games each, owing to the travelling
to be done. President Lucas and
several others strongly favor a six
club league for next season, the plan
being to put in Vancouver with prob
ably Portland as a balancer. Besides
Lucas, Reynolds Of Salt Lake. Will
mot Of Butte and Williams Of Spo-
kane will attend the conference.
The batting averages Of the Ameri-
can league compare poorly with those
Of the National. There are fewer
800 point batsmen, although more
long hits have been made by the
teams. Only IS men are batting 800
or better. Napoleon Lajoie leads the
IS. Harry Davis Of the Athletics is
second batsmen, Cleveland has three.
the Athletics three, Detroit four.
Boston four, Chicago two, New York
one. st. Louis one, and Washington
none. Detroit leads IN team batting,

The Retail Clerks Local Union Tues

a good house at the Toler The play
was accorded n most enthusiastic recep-
ton ana the local talent in the bill made
it an exceptionally good entertajnment.
The play is a musical comedy where com

give The singers of, this city a chance 10
snow what good singers Wichita can
produce y hen occasion demands. and
the members of the cast acquitted them
selves nObly.
The piece contains some exceedingly
clever comedy sketches and songs. which,
combined with the popular melodies, made
up fine bill. Mr. Mathews. under whose
direction the piece was given, proved him
self a good stage manager. and much
credit is due him for the good presenta
,4on of the piece.
Wichita has a whole lot of clever peo-
pie, young men and women, who know
how TO handle comedy role in truly
entertaining manner, and it is surpris-
ing how many good singers can be found
right here in Wichita. There was plenty
of well merited applause given during
the performance. Those who attended
the performance were well paid for their

WHEAT BELT VISITED.
Rain Was General Throughout South
ern Kansas.


At the railroad Offices yesterday the
dispatchers reported Tuesday nights rair
to have been general throughout tho
wheat bet. The rain was heaviest
northwest of this city and the eastern
part of the state received only a sprin-
kle- Nearly an inch and a half of water
fell here, while two inches and over are
reported from a number Of points along
the lines of the Missouri Pacific and Santa
Fe west of Wichita. South and west OF
this city an inch of rain fell.
Yesterday was a cold. blustery day,
with showers during the morning AL
though little rain fell during the after
noon, the clouds did not disappear. and
it is well they did not, for a clear night
meant heavy frost for this section.
About ! o'clock last night snow began
falling ard for several hours light snow
fell, but il melted as fast as it touched
the ground.
The amount of good this rain did to the
wheat cannot be estimat ted. The entire
wheat belt was visited, and in some sec
tons wheat was needing rain very badly.
lie thing the farmers want just now is
warm weather and every plant would be
given big growth in few days. The
corn has been rather backward this
spring because of the continued cool
weather. and in some localities il is re-
ported that the seed rotted in the ground
without sprouting. Around Wichita the
corn is up, but has not made its usual
growth for the length of time the seed
has been in the ground. A few warm
days would make a big change in the
corn fields.
The pastures in this section are reported
in the finest condition. The grass has
been little late in starting. but a num-
Der Of farmers have turned their stock
into their pastures. This rain and a
few warm days win start the grass. and
a week OF favorable weather would make
all pastures able to support the stock.

E. Johnson Was Painfully Scalded in
Wreck Near Anthony.

+. Johnson. of 1890 Waco avenue, a
Missouri Pacific engineer, was scalded
about o'clock yesterday morning by
the turning over of his engine two miles
north of Anthony. Mr.. Johnson hauled
No. 80 to Anthony yesterday. This train
leaves "a 7:40 a. m. and yesterday con-
tanned five coaches. While running two
miles north Of Anthony the engine turned
almost completely over and the engineer
was buried in the debris and the escap-
ing steam painfully burned him about
the head and shoulders
The cause of the wreck cannot be eXr
planned, but is supposed TO have been
caused by the breaking of truck I'M
der the engine. 1t will not be definitely
known how the wreck occurred until
after the official investigation. The
wreck train left here n little before noon
and cleared away the debris. SO that
traffic was resumed yesterday afternoon.

CAPTURED HORSE THIEF.

From Ashland With Prisoner.

Sheriff Schad returned yesterday after
noon from Ashland, Kan. with Paul Lud-
wig. the man who is charged with steal
ing a horse and buggy from a man named
Wolf living about six miles west of the
city. The horse was taken last Wcdnes-
day night, and Saturday the thief was
caught by the authorities at Ashland.
In less than three days Ludwig drove the
stolen horse the 10 miles between this
place and Ashland. The officers at that
place notified Sheriff Schad that they had
captured the thief, and the first OF the
week he, in company with Mr.. Wolf the
owner of the horse and buggy left for
Ashland. The horse was especially priced
by the owner, as it was family pet. He
did not return with the sheriff and the
prisoner. but remained TO drive the horse

FINE HORSE GONE.
DR.. Thomas Suffers q Loss While At

DR.. Thomas lost his fine riding horse
last night. and the probability is that it
was stolen. The doctor was attending a
sick call when the probable theft was
committed. The horse was tied TO the
hitching post. and a part Of the strap was
found At first sight one would naturally
conclude that the horse simply broke
away. but It Is an old trick OF thieves TO
so break the strap that one would natu-
rally suppose that the horse broke away.
The police were at once notified. The
doctors horse was fine one. and il is
hoped that il will be recovered.

The New Cup Defender Will

Bristol, r. l., April 1.-Final prepar-
ations were made today to launch The
new cup defender Reliance. Her ini-
tial plunge Is scheduled to take place
at $50 this afternoon. The weather
conditions were ideal and the day was
made a gala one here. Moored off the
end of the dock the tender of the Re-
lance, the steamer Sunbeam, was fan
cifully decorated with flags. C. Oliver
Iselin, the managing owner of the Re
lance, spent today on the Sunbeam and
received large number of invited
guests. Many yachtsmen have come
from New York to witness the launch
ing. Although the boat was still some
what hidden by the staging, it could be
seen that the Reliance was more Of a
skimming dish than any boat that the
Herreshoffs have constructed for de-
fender. Her floor is very fiat and there
is scarcely any bilge, her stern running
we'll under and not deepening into the
keel. for many feet. The rudder post
has decided rake and the fin is very
thin. The boat has considerable beam
and looks as if she would be decided

WHEAT SPECuLATORS RATIFIED.
Many Traders Caught Unawares by New Bull
Tactics,

Chicago, April 11.-A "shake out" of
the smaller holders of May and July
wheat occurred on the board of trade
today and as the result OF the bull
leaders endeavor to secure better con-
troll of the situation, the price of May
delivery dropped 8 cents, W hile July de-
clined 1-2c. The market opened with
every indication that the bull campaign
which had been in progress the past
few days, was still in full swing. With
the market in such favorable condition
the bull leaders decided to get rid of
some of his holdings and began to sell
both May and July options. The change
in tactics caught many traders una
wares and there was a rush to sell,
which resulted in rapid decline, the
price going down by jumps until May
had reached "a 3-S and July 60 rs. The
amount of wheat sold by the Armour
interests was conservatively estimated
at 100000 bushels, a large part Of
which was for July delivery Before
the end of the first hour the trading
became more quiet and prices rallied

vegetable patch and several cultivated
fields shows what can be done in the
line of agriculture in the Uno de Cato
valley. Manager w. s. Hopewell has
given orders to erect 100 houses for the
miners Of the northern slope of the
townsite, somewhat nearer to the
mines than the rest of the town will
be. When it is realized that ultimately
1000 to 1900 men are to be employed in
the coal mines alone then it will be
seen that Hagan will be an important
town. But coal mining Is not to be the
only industry. There will be coke ovens
and if large body of sulphide, iron or
copper ore can be located in that Sec
tion there will go up furnaces and
smelters. Professor Keyes, the director
of the School of Mines at Socorro, and
mineral and geological expert of nat

to look at iron and copper prospects To-
