BLOOMINGTON, H., April 11-KeI-

here this afternoon by the Three-I league
Bloomington team. The locals outplayed
the Saints at every part of the game, and
pounded two of the champions pitchers at

The contest did not go the distance.
Kelley being ready to quit at the end of
the seventh, when the score stood II to
z in favor of Bloomington. Thirteen hits
were secured off Slagle and Chech in the
seven innings thy faced the locals, and
there was run for almost every swat.
Slagle was sent in to pitch the game,
but five runs made off him, two in the
second and three in the third, alarmed
Kelley, and Chech was again sent in to
save the day. For two innings he did
fairly well, but someone touched off the
fireworks in the sixth. and three runs were
made after the BlOOmingtOnites had
pounded the ball all over the yard. In
the seventh Chech was even worse. four
runs being scored with ease by the locals.
1t was more than Kelley could stand,
and the game was stopped.
Lemon. borrowed by Kelley from Terre
Haute did the catching for st. Paul, and
was not In anywise outclassed by the
company he was in. Bloomington fans
are of the opinion that the Saints will
have to show in much better form than
they did today if they expect to keep
company with the American association
teams this season.
The visitors played an amateurish
game all the way, five errors being
made by them against three for the To-

FILIPINOS WILL HAVE
TO WAIT GENERATIONS
Secretary Taft Says Their Independ-
ence Is a Thing Very Remote.

PEORIA, Ill, April 11.-Secretary OF
War Taft, speaking at the annual ban
quet Of the Kickapoo club tonight,
clearly outlined the course to be pur-
sued by the administration in the Phil
ippines, and in reply to queries as to
when the administration proposed to
grant independence to the Philippines,
stated that the time for a final deci-
sion was not at hand, nor would it be
for probably several generations.
He declared that at the end of that
time, when the Filipinos had reached
stage where they were capable of
government, they might be so well
satisfied with the government of this
country that they would prefer to
maintain a relation like that which now
binds Australia and Canada with
Great Britain.
