ATHLETICS AT BATES.
The College Association Accepts New
Tennis Regulations.

Bates College, Lewiston, Me-, April
13.-(SpeciaD.- a meeting of the
Bates College Athletic Association,
this morning, it was voted to accept
the constitution prepared by the Maine
Intercollegiate Tennis Association. This
constitution provides for yearly tourna-
ments to decide the championship in
doubles and singles among the Maine
colleges. These tournaments will be-
gin, this year, at Bowdoin, and the
schedule for the future will be as fol-
lows: University of Maine, 1904;
Bates, 1905; Colby. 1906. The prizes
will be awarded to the college winning
in doubles and singles. The college
winning the meet holds the cup dur
ing that year and the college winning
three of the tournaments, not neces-
sarily in succession, will retain the
cup. In the preliminaries the winners
must win two out of three, and in the
finals three out of five.
At this meeting also, the reSigna-
ton of Judson Briggs as assistant man.
ager of the baseball team was received
and accepted Mr.. Briggs is one of
the men chosen as. debater and finds
himself unable to continue his duties
in the Athletic Association. His sue
cessor has not yet been named.
Still another important question
came up before this meeting. 1t was
proposed that hereafter the assistant
baseball, football, tennis and track
managers be elected from the members
of the sophomore class. The reasons
advanced for this change were: First,
that it would allow the different man
ayers ample time to settle all financial
business and other business before
they finished the college course. 1t was
stated that'tfie extra work usually met
| in the senior year prevented the best
efforts in athletic lines, hence it is
more desirable that less burdened men
hil these offices. Second. that this ar
rangemett is working to better adj
vantage in other colleges where it has
proved wholly satisfactory.
Pappalau, Bates coach, has one Of
| the largest practicing squads ever out
| ON the Bates diamond. About Is men
are out every afternoon and the com
petition is strong. Some changes Will
| be made among the old men. MARI,
last years substitute for position of
right field will probably be placed on
third base, left vacant by the absence
Of Parsons, '95. Several other places
are rot yet filled although good ma
| terial is on hand. 1t is believed that
| when the first nine has been selected,
the second nine will be the strongest
Bates has ever had.

NEW ARMY RIFLES.
A Change Will Soon Be Made in Ser.
vice Arms.

Washington, April 13.-The war de-
partment has received the report of the
hoard of officers that has been expert
menting with the new service rifle. AS
result of long trials with the new
piece radical changes will be made in
the present infantry rifle, and also in
the cavalry carbine.
At present there are two separate
rifles for these two branches of the ser
vice. The small arm of the infantry
is musket 80 inches long, while the
cavalry use a 22inch rifle. Both of
these types are to be discarded and a
common weapon. "a inches in length.
adapted for the cavalry, as well as the
infantry.
The board found that by increasing
the powder charge in the cartridge it
could make up the velocity lost by the
use of Il short barrel. The accuracy of
the shorter weapon is as good as was
the regulation 30-inch type. Two
pounds in weight will be saved by the
adoption of the 24-inch rifle, which can
be used to great advantage in the brush
and also utilized as club.

no member of the Textile Council be-
ing present. Mr.. McVey continued his
cross examination of Mr.. Southworth
The latter said that the Lowell mills
would not earn materially more if
manned by Fall River operatives. If
Fall River machinery could be brought
to Lowell, something might be done.
He could not say whether he had any
mule spinners in the Massachusetts
who had worked in Fall River.
From this point Mr.. Southworth went
into details at some length on the
manufacture Of fine goods, which re-
CURED greater skill. He said that
Southern mills already are going from
plain to colored goods and when they
do this it will be necessary for Lowell
Mills to make another change. This
change already is contemplated. He
declined to say whether the last divi-
dend on the Massachusetts stock had
been paid from the earnings. He said
he was not prepared to believe that the
Lowell mills We're owned by cotton in
terests.
Mr.. Southworth again denied that
there was any combination of mills,
saying he never heard of such a matter
until Lawyer McVey spoke of it.
Mr.. McVey branched off on another
line of questioning. asking the agent if
competition in the home market means
lower prices to consumers. The agent
replied that it does, and it reflected in
lower wages for the operatives.
Then how do you account for the in
crease in the circulation of the cur
repcy?"
Il don't care to discuss such ques-
tiOns: am not financier.''
Secretary Mcdonald of the Textile
Council came in just at that point, and
remarked will the board accept these
evasiye answers?"
Mr.. 'McVey said: That's all right, Mr..
Southworth, let us now have a heart
to heart talk. Can you give any other
reason why the 10 per cent increase
cannot be granted?"
Mr.. .Southworth replied II have al
ready answered that question:.
The two lawyers had another tilt over
rehearsing testimony and at this point
the board ordered the hearing adjourn
ed until IL o'clock in the morning.

The parade, this afternoon, was par
| ticipated in by thousands of textile OPP
eratives, out of work on account of the
strike.
The marching operatives started from
the north common soon after l O'Clock,
traversing Merrimack, Central, Middle
sex streets to the South common, where
mass meeting followed.
The procession was reviewed at City
hall by Mayor Howe. A feature of the
parade was the presence of a large
number of women who marched with
the weavers' division. The day was
fine and great crowds saw the parade.
The chief marshal was Robert F. Con-
roy, president of the Textile Council,
his aides including other members of
that body. 1t was hoped to have Presi-
dent Gompers of the American FEEDER
alton Of Labor, here, and also President
Mitchell of the United Mine Workers,
but those leaders were prevented from
coming at this time by trade matters.
The list of speakers on South COM
mon included Representatives Carey of
Haverhill. Ross of New Bedford, and
Jackson of Fall River, and Rev. Father
Thomas McGrady of Belleview, Ky.
Speeches were made from three diff
ferent points on the common. President
Conroy opened by thanking the opera
tives for turning out in such large num-
bers and showing the mill agents their
strength. He urged them to keep up
their orderly conduct and so strengthen
their cause before the public.

you had the organization here as we
have it in New Bedford and Fall River,
you would be at work, today, at in
creased wages, and perhaps at higher
wages than are paid in other cities.
The agents say their mills are not
equipped with modern machinery. Is
that any fault of yours? If the mills
had spent some of their dividend for
modern machinery, the agents would
not give that excuse now and tell you
that the Southern mills are pushing
Lowell mills to the WALL
Frank X. Foster of Boston, said that
Lowell operatives should have followed
the action of the mule spinners and ci-
gar makers of the country and perfect
ed an organization against the time
when the agents should refuse a just
demand.
Representative F. o. Mccartney said
that the wages of operatives are not
enough to provide the necessaries of
life. Operatives do not get as much,
today, according to the cost of living
and the wealth accruing to mill owners,

COAL.
|SBOOSTED
First Raise in Fuel An
nOunCed by Canton
Dealers.

Hard coal has taken its first jump
in price, going UP from $3.50 to $6.75
a ton. This raise was decided upon
by all local dealers in fuel Wednesday,
as result of the steady advance Of
10 cents a month imposed by the ship
pers.
The advance was begun by the op-
orators last April and now amounts
to so cents The dealers nfelt that they
could no longer stand the raise without
making one on local consumers.
Eggs, stove and chestnut sizes are
at the top while great size hard coal
is sellingg at $3.50, having advanced
to that price from s6.25. No further
boost on the part of the operators is
expected and if such is the case mo
further advance will be made in To-
cal markets.
nLetters notifying them of the Sep
tember raise of 10 cents ton were re-
ceived by fuel handlers in Canton
Tuesday night and the jump in prices
was decided upon as result. There
is plenty of anthracite in the market.

A tale of foolhardiness actuated by
love, is told by local health officials
concerning Frank Spencer, 1401 East
Tuscarawas street, who was released
from the municipal hospital Tuesday
afternoon. In consequence of his rash
act, his mother, Mrs. Ellen Spencer,
and sister Amanda, are now confined
in the city hospital.
About two weeks ago Spencer went
to Massillon to visit his sweetheart
He found her i'll with the dread dis
ease, while her father, who had been
appointed guard by the city health
board, was stationed outside the house.
Not fearing the disease Spencer
pleaded to be permitted to see the
sick girl and at last prevailed upon
her father to allow him to enter the
house.
Shortly after his return to Canton
he was taken down with the malady.
He had no doctor but kept inside the
house, while none knew Of the nature
of the illness. One day Mrs. Spencer
