Jumped four on Wilson in the third p

PHILADELPHIA, July 30.-Patrons of
American League baseball in this city
were treated 10 another extra inning
battle between the Washington and
Athletic teams yesterday afternoon. the
contest being declared a draw at the
termination of the tenth inning, each
team having scored four runs. Like the
game on Tuesday, yesterdays battle was
replete with pretty fielding plays.
which, combined with the cIoseness of
the score, left not an uninteresting in
ming during the contest.
The most brilliant fielding feature was
reserved for the final inning and for an
Athletic player. Pickering was the man
to earn temporary fame and salves of
applause by his physical cleverness and
feetness. In the tenth inning Setback
singled, and was advanced to second on
Lees sacrifice. the latter being safe at
first on Schreck's drop Of the throw.
Setback was anxious to score, and. TAX
ing a big lead of second, was caught
by a splendid throw by the catching
doctor. Coughlin was at bat, and af-
ter Setback had reached the bench the

good for a single. Pickering sprinted
for the moving sphere directly it was
hit. and by a forward dive just man
aged to reach the ball, and. although
under full speed. the feet outfelder
held It. Without waiting to steady
himself he hurled the ball with re-
markable force and accuracy to the
waiting Schreck. and it beat Lee by a
yard or two. 1t was a sensational per-

to question of sentiment against busi- ness sense. There could be little of the former, and perhaps none of the latter ] in passing a bill under which Birming- hams limits would not be extended. And I say would not be extended adyisedly because we all know that the land own CTS outside of the towns would not unan- 1 imousv accept the invitation to come | in just to be taxed, and we all know that the incorporated towns would not come in, realizing that to do so would be with out representation and without unload ing their bonded indebtedness. And, be- | sides I do not believe that the Industrial | Plant exemption feature of the bill ap- | peals to the people at large It taxes the | small concerns at the expense of the | large ones. If such plants are not now l in an incorporated town, they could not ] be annexed without consent, (which l think is righ) but where they are all ready located in Incorporated towns and are paying municipal taxes, I see no req son why the fact that the name of the town Is changed would excuse them from taxation. And. too, 1 believe that the people of Birmingham would oppose the annexation of the suburbs proposed when it was realized that the net profits from the taxes derived from, say Wood lawn. would not amount to as much as the taxes accuring from the new ten story First National Bank building, which taxes from the latter can now be spent in increasing the police department. cleaning and lighting the streets, etc, of Birmingham, while under the Great CT Birmingham bill, it would be the ctys duty to distribute the same pro rata throughout the newly acquired territory.
 "It is said that the only way to have a Greater Birmingham is to pass a bill which takes in certain territory. That may be true but I can not do so and at the same time obey the instructions of the convention which nominated me, to leave the matter to a vote of the people proposed to be annexed. I think that all the incorporated towns will come in when the governing bodies thereof find that they can not pay the salaries of the officials and meet the bonded indebted ness, or perhaps when they have com pleted all necessary works of improve ment
 Must Be General Law.
 'At any rate, in my opinion. there must be a general law regulating all mat ters which by the constitution are pro- hibited from being done by local law, or else the passage of this bill will be futile. This bill is of necessity, crude, and if Avondale, Woodlawn, and East Lake should today voluntarily accept the hospitable invitation to come in, we should have no law by which their f. nances could be adjusted and the at tempt would result in chaos and confu- sion.
 If I am wrong. the next legislature which meets three years before the pub lcation of the next census, can provide by general law everything that may be necessary. l personally regret coming to this conclusion, because 1 am tired of telling strangers that Birmingham has population of 100000, and having them reply that "it is strange that the census bureau should have missed It by 6O,OOO."

CHIEF kULLIN IS
 MUCH STIRRED UP
RECEIVES AN ANONYMOUS CON- MUNICATlON CRlTICISING SOME
 OF THE DRIVERS OF FIRE AP. PARATUs-AN INSTANCE CITED.

Chief of the Fire Department Mullin is very much wrought up over an anony- nous postal card he received yesterday making charges against some of the dri- vers of the fire apparatus. The card is unsigned and accuses the drivers of being reckless and too exoitable to be allowed to drive.
 The writer of the card cites an instance which occurred Monday afternoon at Sec- ond avenue and Nineteenth street, when one of the drivers was forced to go up on the side walk in order to prevent col- lision with a street car.
 The wagon was coming up Nineteenth street answering an alarm when a street car came in sight. Thinking the car would stop in time, as the law requires. the driver did not stop his horses. The car came further than 1t should and in order to prevent wrecking the wagon, possibly injuring horses and men, the driver turned suddenly and one wheel went up on the pavement.
 Chief Mullin said that he did not mind complaints being made, but that he wished the people making them had man. hood enough to do it openly. He says every citizen has right to report any mistakes made by the firemen.
