The New Cosur d'Alene
Team for Month Of
December

Last nights efforts of the bowlers
OF the Occur. d'Alene club finished the
selection of the team which is to
represent the club in the match games
against other teams of the city-not-
ably the team representing the Spo-
kane Amateur Athletic club. These
two bowling organizations are the
leads of the city. and there is much
rivalry between the members. Thus
Tar the c. u. B. are ahead, but the
way the Athletes have been rolling
of late shows that they are bowling
to "beat the favorite" and the next
game will probably tell a different
tale than the games played between
these two heretofore. OF course, the
alleys of the Occur d'Alene club are
in pueh better shape than the Others
but even then the members of the
; ATHLETIC club are looking forward
to the best alleys in the northwest
when they finally get moved into their
new home at the south end of the
Monroe street bridge.
Owney Patton, manager Of the
Occur dAlene club. said last night
that he Is preparing to do things
when the upstairs alleys are ready

openings" will probably occur which
have made Spokane famous like

an opening happens in Spokane there

where the grand jury lately had a
session with some of those in official
positions.
The personnel of the December
team will be posted tonight on the

CHANGE FOUL STRIKE.

Talk of changing the foul-strike
rule Is still going on and IL now looks
rs though trouble may result from
II owing to the two leagues failure to
agree on 1t. President Ban Johnson
OF the American league, talking on
tho subject. says:
"There Is much opposition to the
foulstrike law among our clubs. and
committee will talk it over at our
annual meeting next month. l expect
II will be abolished"
There seems to have been q mis-
understanding regarding the adoption
of the law by the American league.
Johnson says the National league
magnates agreed to do away with the
rule IT 1t did not work well in the
American league and President Hart
Of Chicago. speaking for the National
league. says Johnson Is in error on
this point The upshot of the whole
matter probably will be that the Ma
tional league will retain the rule, as
at least five of it's clubs are in favor
OF IL, while the American league will
do away with it because six of its
clubs are opposed to it,

Corn is greatly improved, especially in

tinued under favorable conditions. harvest
ing having been finished, except in por-
tions of New York and Michigan and
on the Pacific coast, with disappointing
yields.
General rains in the spring wheat region
OF the upper Missouri and Red river val
leys checked the ripening of spring wheat
and caused better filling of the heads.
Harvesting is in progress, some of the
carly sown being cut in the northern por-
tion, but was delayed by rains in South

Threshing is also in progress in Oregon
with light yields, but of excellent quality.
In Washington the crop is maturing

GREAT STRUCTURE ACROSS THE
MISSISSIPPI AT ST. LOUIS is
LIKELY TO BE SEIZED.
By ASSOCIATED PRESS


Washington, Aug. 4.-Secrctary Root
has addressed a communication to the
Merchants Bridge company, the owner
Of the large bridge across the Mississippi
river at ST. Louis, asking the company to
show cause why the United States should
not take possession of the bridge under
statute which provided for its construc-
tion.
Under the law the secretary Of war can
take possession of the bridge without
legal proceedings of any kind, il any of
three things happen, namely, il the bridge
company consolidate with any other bridge
company; If the company pools Its earn
ings with any other company; If the same
officers of any other company become
officers Of the Merchants Bridge COM
pany
In the allegations presented to the Sec
retary of war it is declared that leases
made by the Merchants Bridge company
constitute consolidation with another
company,
