T|LDEN TAKES THE GAME
SECOND OF SERIES PockETED
BY WEsTERNERs.
PLAINvIew WAS IN HARD LUCK

squares appeared under the Tilden
platter.
with drizzling rain that turned
the diamond into a skating rink and
the balls and the big mitts into oiled
difficulties, good game was beyond
the question and the crowd returned
thanks to Umpire Spaulding when he
called 1t off in the seventh inning. 1t
was Tiden's game, anyway, and the
inconvenience of the players and the
long waiting spells of the spectators
who looked for something to turn up,
was a sufficient excuse for cutting the
not the time consumed. A few
sprinkles early in the afternoon had
left the diamond in fair condition, but
it overdid the thing soon after the
game was declared on by saturating
things in general and the diamond in
particular with moisture.
Plainview put up good honest ball,
but the team was in hard luck from
the start, and Dad Whitney's bunch
soon made its position more difficult
to sustain as competing ball team.
Dunaway went in to do things for
them in the box, and he put up great
speed but was little wild in his cal
culations, and was relieved by Full
mer in the fourth, who gave the
strong men of the Tilden aggregation
some deceitful tosses.
Feature plays were rare and unlock
ed for, but the errors were likewise
surprisingly small considering the in
vading moisture. The strong stick
work of the Tilden bunch was what
counted and from the second inning
there was not much doubt concerning
the team that would meet Stanton for
the final round up today, and close
game is anticipated by the crowd that
has gone to the field this afternoon.
If Tilden holds the boys from the
east as well as the Humphrey people
did on the first day, there will be
things worth seeing where the fight
is warm.
The crowd, as large as that of the
first day, was there to see ball and
they decided they could stand for the
moisture if the players could and
they remained steadfast until the de-
Gliding half of the seventh, when they
went away with flattering pictures of
Tilden craven in their hearts.

COLLECT ILLEGALLY
Charge Against Former Mime.
apolitans, Under Arrest

CINCINNATI. Ohio, Oct. 6.-W. ].
Sullivan and Edward Daniels, who are
said to comprise the Caxton associa-
ton, a so-called collecting agency
were arrested today on an indictment
returned by a federal grand jury
charging them with illegally collecting
newspaper subscriptions. According to
Postofice Inspector Holmes, they first
began operations in Minneapolis,
whence they removed to Niles, Ohio
coming to Cincinnati about a year ago.
Their alleged operations consisted of
securing from trade, class and special
publications lists of alleged delinquent
subscribers. A system of dunning let
ters was used. The first of these was
a simple request to pay the bill alleged
to be due, and this was followed at in
tervals of two weeks by stronger COM
munications, suit finally being threat
ened. If this did not bring a reply the
matter was dropped.
MANY of the bills" said Col. Holmes,
"Were to persons who had subscribed
for the papers for a short time, but to
whom the publishers continued sending
the journals. In many cases payment
was demanded for a period not due"

He AMUSES CROWD
DR.. Harper Says Sane Men
Sometimes Talk FooIishIy

PEORIA, ILL.,, Oct. 6.-President Will
liam R. Harper, of the University of
Chicago, caused much merriment today
as a witness in the contest of Wash
ington Corrington's will. He had been
summoned, together with Prof. Albion
W. Small, by the trustees named in
Corrington's will to found a university
with his estate. The object was to.
prove by the testimony of Drs. Harper
and Small that Corrington was of sound
mind when he made his will and cut
off his heirs.
DR.. Harper testified regarding visits
Corrington had made to him and dis
cussions relative to Corrington's idea
of founding a $1000,000 university. He
said he met Corrington first in 1896 or
1897. Subsequently he visited his house
with DR.. Small. He had met him also
at the home of DR.. Sisson Of the Brad
ley institute. One of the subjects of
conversation was the proposed educa-
tional institutions.
Dr. Harper had suggested that Mr.
Corrington combine with the Bradley
institute, suggesting that more good
would be accomplished in this manner,
but to this view Mr.. Corrington did not
subscribe He had inquired in detail of
the association of Bradley with the
University of Chicago, the internal Or
ganization of the University of Chicago
and the work done along agricultural
lines. DR.. Harper testified that he con-
sidered the man Of sound mind and
capable of disposing of his property.
g On the cross examination the ,attor-
ney for the heirs read several extracts
from a treatise published by Mr.. Cor
rington entitled THE Ubiquitous Spirit
of the Universe" These extracts con-
sisted of extraordinary flights of lam
guage and the, attorney attempted to
show by the witness that man over
eighty-five years of age who would
write matter of that character was not
mentally sound, but this the witness
would not admit, declaring, however,
that he would like to hear more of the
article read or know more of the man
before passing finally on the question.
In answer to the question whether
he would consider Mr.. Corrington sane
on all subjects DR.. Harper replied that
he considered him as sane as the aver
age man.
'Do you think he was sane on the
question of science?"
.I don't know
do you think he was sane as to his
property"
Some people think no man is sane
on the property question" replied the
witness, while a ripple OF laughter ran
around the room
Continuing the cross examination as
RI the extracts from the treatise the
attorney asked if this did not indicate
arrangement.
81 don't know" replied DIR. Harper.

conclude that man was insane be-

LOUISVILLE, KY, Oct. Con
gressman John Sharp Williams opened
the Democratic campaign in Louisville
tonight at a meeting which drew
large crowd to Seventh street armery.
The meeting was preceded by long
parade of the Democratic club, car
rying Parker banners and Japanese
lanterns.
Mr. Williams speech was pitched in
p key of intense sarcasm, dealing
mainly with the Roosevelt administra-
ton and the policy of the president as
set forth in the letter of acceptance.
He took some time to answer the
charge that the Democratic party is
not party of constructive statesmen.
"They say we are the party of retro
gression and criticism" said Mr.. Will
liams. "To answer this it is only nee
essary to refer them to the admins
trations of Jefferson and Jackson, the
founder and the upholder of the prin-
ciples we revere. Both of these presi-
dents were pre- eminently of the con-
structive school.
Compare their record with that of
this man in the White house, this
pseudo American statesman and the
Republicans whose leader he is. The
attitude of the Republican administra-
ton, backed by the party on three of

REDUCE ARMAMENT
SAY MEN OF PEACE
In Connection With the Boston
Congress Cardinal Gibbons
Defends Belgium

BOSTON, Mass, Oct. 6.-The arrest
and subsequent reduction of military
and naval armaments throughout the
world was called for today at the ses-
sion of the international peace con-
gress, when resolutions We're adopted
expressing the hope that the first task
which the worlds new convention sug
gested by President Roosevelt should
take up would be the gradual disarm-
ament of the powers
The thanks of the congress were ex-
tended TO President Roosevelt for his
pledge to take the first steps towards
q convoration of a new international
peace conclaVe
Gen. Nelson A. Miles was the prin-
cipal speaker tonight at a congress
meeting held in Park Street church to
consider the question of the reduction
of armaments and the ~ ce Of great
armies and navies.. Congressman
Samuel W. Mccall presided and sew
eraI prominent men voiced their opin-
ions.
Another meeting, devoted to a dis
cussion of the responsibilities of edu-
cation in creating right ideals of inter
national life was held in fremont tenn
pie. Prof. Francis G. Peabody of Har-
ward university, presided, and the
speakers included Baroness Won Sutner
and DIR. Yamei Kin, of China.
Cardinal Gibbons has written a let
ter to Rev. Edward Everett Hale, in
which he says
Had 1 been able to be present 1
would make it my duty to say word
in vindication of the policy of Belgium
In the Congo state. The representa-
tives of the different European pow
ers at the Berlin conference were COM
PEELED to express their admiration and
praise of the noble ideals of the found
er of the Congo state and of the spIen-
did results achieved through his hu-
name policy.
''The Italian representatives speaking
of the perseverance of the king of the
Belgians In the civilization and devel-
opment of the Congo state, said: For
eight years with rare oonstancy he
(the king) has spared neither trouble
nor personal sacrifice for the success
of a generous and philanthropic en-
terprise.' In terms no less flattering
spoke the British representative, Sir
Edward Malet, and likewise Chinese
Gordon. Lord Curzon. too, says: Civ
ilization, the development, the pres
ent prosperity of the Congo state, the
peace that now nestles in its only tur-
bulent bosom, are all the fruits of the
toll and sacrifice of the Belgians.'
Keeping in view all this, it would
be greatly tc be regretted that a con-
ference which bears the very name of
peace should discuss a question which
is calculated to arouse enmity and
strife. Moreover, such a discussion
would of necessity be one-sided and
unfair, insomuch as the representatives
of the Belgian government would have
no opportunity to reply to the charges
made against its administration of the
Congo, nor TO present their own case. -
