SCORE WAS
FIFTY TO SIX
Slaughter Of Innoccnts at Basket
Ball Last Night.

BIB won its most decided victory of
the season last night when it defeated
the 50 called strong team from Fair
Haven.
The visiting team was scheduled to
arrive at $40, but it was nearly 910
when it crossed the Hoob of the hall,
greeted by cheer from the spectators.
The game started at 9:20 and the on
ly thing in doubt after the first ten
minutes of play was the size Of the
score that BBB would run up against
its opponents,
The game started In with a rush, Ca
sey throwing the frs basket within 30
seconds of the whistle, This was i'm
mediately followed by two more and
then they came thick and fast for the
rest OF the half, Casey throwing six
more during the half. The first period
closed amid deafening cheers, with the
score % to 0 in favor OF BIB.
After an intermission OF ten minutes
the two teams went at it again, hammer
and tongs. Tue visitors wore do or
die expression, and made good bid
for some baskets, but it was OF no use.
BIB took the ball and kept it, giving
the prettiest exhibition of password
ever seen in Bennington.
During this half, Gokay and his OPP
ponent mixed things up little and
but for the Intervention OF the other
members of the team, would have come
to blows. The BIB team didn't try
to score the first part OF the second
half, but devoted its energies TO keep
ing the ball away from the Fair Haven
team.
After few cries Of, MAKE 1t 50 to 0
boys" BBB started scoring again.
and ran the score up to 30 in the last
few minutes OF the play. During its
half the visiting team managed to
score six points, two Of which were on
fouls. Fair Haven never lost heart
during the game, but played for all
there was In them up to the last min.
ute.
Harbour was unable to play but was
on the side lines with his uniform and
was one of the mostexcited spectators,
The game was free from fouls and
was played in a Observation-Disclosures.
The visitors played in hard luck most
of the time, having the ball strike the
basket several times and roll the wrong
way,
The basket throwing of Casey and
the passing of the whole team we're the
features of the game. The lineup was
as follows:

+ like q line of moving, undulating low
land. The action seemed centered now
about one point. Here and there drift
ed vessels apparently out of the fight
ing. At distance it was impossible
to make out whether they We're friend
or enemy.
But clearly now it could be seen that
three of them were coming out from
the ruck in the direction of the Ari-
iona to her antagonists assistance. In
few minutes more they would be
within range.
Amiral Benton looked back at the
two flags that We're still flying from
the pierced and dented mainmast. He
remembered how he had made up his
mind that those flags would not come
down at any order of his. When they
We're lowered. the ship would be going
with them. The awful picture of the
sinking PoIyphemus came before him.
There was no use trying to run with
two of the forward compartments and
one of the after flooded. He could
scarcely make sixteen knots an hour.
They would pick him up before he had
gone ten miles.
Captain Howarth looked at him. then
he glanced back at the battle-fags.
Had they any right for the sake OF
pride to sacrifice further lives upon its
altar? He remembered that down be-
low was q British admiral. The doctor
reported that he was recovering con-
sciousness and would live.
Commander Keene, who had been
standing out boldly to one side of the
conning-toWer, now spoke.
It's a very strange thing, sir" he
said, coming close and shouting into
the AdmiraPs ear. mot a shot has
come near US for over minute, yet
she seemed to be firing"
The party rushed out from the shell
ter of the conning-tower. Emery
jumped across to the top of the turret.
The English ship was firing quicqly.
Her shots were striking the water "a
bout quarter of mile away from
her, leaping and tearing off in all di-
rections. Then, as all were watching
her, tall water spout sprang from
against her side

Emery went aft to assist Commander
keene in directing those able to work

Emery looked back to see what had
become of the English battle-ship. AL

RUSSIAN VICTORIES
FOR MARKET EFFECT

London, April est is announced
from Shanghai this morning that the
third Japanese army, now modifying,
will comprise the fifth division from
Hiroshima, the tenth from Hinieju and
the eleventh from zentsuuji. Prepare
tons are on foot to mobilize a fourth
army should it become necessary.
The destination of these armies is a
matter of considerable speculation
here, though it is supposed that it
may be the intention to use them
against Vladivostok or Port Arthur
No further light has been thrown on
the operations on the Yalu, and in the
absence of official dispatches little at
tention is paid to Russian reports of
Japanese reVerses, which it is believed
are spread with the motive of influ-
encing the European money market
in favor of Russian financial opera
TONS.
No definite news has been received
regarding the whereabouts of the Vlad
ivostok squadron, but the indications
are that it has regained the harbor.

BELIEVE THE JAPANESE
SUSTAINED HEAVY LOSS

st. Petersburg, April 81, 6:2s p. NJ
The general staff believes that one of
the Japanese columns, while attempt
ing to cross the Yalu river at Turen-
chen, sustained severe loss, owing to
unexpected Smelling by Russian bat
terry from the opposite bank, which
destroyed the Japanese pontoons.
The Japanese. the general staff says,
tried to cross the river at six or seven
different points and succeeded only at
one point. The staff has no further
news.
The. crossing of the Yalu river by
the Japanese forces did not impress
the Russians, in view of the reports
of the ensuing Japanese reverse.
These reports became more persistent
at noon and caused an all round rise
in prices on the bourse, but so far
There has been no confirmation of
them officially

LABOR PROBLEM
FAvORS THE SOUTH
SOUTHERN MILLS HELPED
BECAUSE HOURS ARE LONGER
THAN IN NORTH.

President of the New England Cot
ton manufacturers Gives Views
Upon the Industry and the Cotton
Mnrket-His Plea Is for Big Crop
May Yet Require Asiatic Labor in
Cotton Fields.
Boston, April 27.-In his annual ad.
dress to the members of the New Eng
land Cotton Manufacturers Associa-
ton, which began its yearly conven-
tion here to-day, President Herbert e.
Walmsley said that one of the most
pressing questions engaging the atten-
ton of the cotton world to-day was
that of the development of the re-
sources of the Southern cotton belt.
He held that it was essential to the
interests of the United States as pro-
ducers, manufacturers, and exporters
of cotton that the supply from our
fields be increased and it's cost reduced
so as to retain an enormous source of
wealth to the country. He expressed
the belief that the trade would never
be free from unlawful high prices,
speculation and unsatisfactory and
harmful fluctuations, until there is an
ample supply of the raw material"
Mr.. Walmsley thought that the re-
suit of the disastrous twelve months
just passed, with its shortage of cot
ton and its speculative manipulation,
would ultimately prove a blessing in
disguise for the entire manufacturing
world. 1t was not unreasonable, he
said, to anticipate a revival of trade
at remunerative prices and a return
to long period of prosperity.
At to the Labor Problem.
Speaking of the labor problem the
president said it might be a long time
before uniform working day or week
was established in the United States,
but when the necessity for ii was rec
ognized, he said. it would inevitably
come. He pointed out that the margin
of profit in cotton manufacturing was
now so small that such a difference as
exists in the working hours in different
states, particularly between the North
and South, was enough to compel a re-
moval TO the South. where there are
longer labor days, or else a suspension
of business altogether.
Mr.. Walmsley said that 1t would ap-
pear that relief may come through i'm
migra ton from Southern Europe, for
the development of the cotton fields
He suggested that the economic neces-
sity might become so pressing as to
justify, and even demand the importa-
ton of some form of Asiatic labor; for
instance, the Japanese. The operatives,
he said. were the chief sufferers from
the lack of raw material. and the sit
uation had become intolerable.
Sees no Antngonism.
Theodore H. Price of New York read
| a paper upon THE Cotton Situation, :"
in connection with which he referred to
an alleged breach between the produc-
ers of cotton and the purchasers. He
said he did not believe any such antag-
onism existed, but thought there was a
bitter feeling towards the Spectator.
Mr.. Price held that the American
| spinner is in position to exert ire
mendous power in restraining immod-
crate speculation, and in establishing
a stability of values.

KNOX ON THE TRUSTS.
what Has Not Been Done About the
"OctOpuses."


Washington, April 27.-Attorney
General Knox to-day transmitted to
the House replies to the two resolutions
of inquiry introduced by Mr.. Williams
Of Mississippi relative to trusts. He
says that no criminal prosecutions
have been instituted against the per-
sons involved in the Northern Secur-
ties Company.
In reply to the inquiry whether any
investigation has been made into the
anthracite coal trust. the Attorney
General says an investigation was be-
gun during the coal strike, but had
not proceeded far until IL was dis
covered that If such combination ex-
listed, the evidence of its existence had
bene adroitly concealed, and that IL 1t
was to be established would largely de-
pend upon the governments ability to
secure evidence of a chain of circum-
stances which, in the aggregate, would
establish the combination"
AS the Department of Justice pos
sessed no powers to compel the pro-
duction Of persons and papers the sub
ject was taken UP with the Interstate
Commerce Commission with view to
ascertaining the facts. About this time
complaint was made before the Inter-
state Commerce Commission involving
the same questions. This complaint
resulting in hearings at which certain
witnesses refused to produce papers.
Proceedings were begun by the Attor-
ney General to compel the production
of the papers and a decision favoring
the government obtained in the United
States Supreme Court. The hearings
are about to be renewed by the Inter
state Commerce Commission, and it is
expected, will furnish the department
with all available information in re-
lation to the alleged combination.

Matters That Received the COnsid-
Grafton of That Body.
Washington, April 27.-The attention
of the Senate was devoted to-day to
consideration of reports of conference
committees, set speeches, passage of
bills to which there was little or no OBJ
lection, and an executive session. The
session began at 10 o'clock in the morn
ing.
Final conference on the sundry civil,
general deficiency, postoffice and the
military academy appropriation bills
We're agreed to practically without OPP
position. Speeches We're made by Mr..
Cullom on the conduct of foreign at
fairs by Presidents Mckinley and
Roosevelt, by Mr.. Teller on the pub
lie land question and by Mr.. McLaurin
on the old age pension order and
trusts.
Mr.. McLaurin declared that the pen
sion order is nothing less than legis-
lation by the executive branch of the
government, and, therefore, unjustified
and unwarranted.
Mr.. McLaurin said that of the 31S
trusts the administration had proceed
ed against only one. He criticised Mr..
Roosevelt as an unsafe man for the
presidency.
When the conference report on the
postof1ce appropriation bill was pre-
scented Mr.. Clay and Mr.. German eX-
pressed regret that the Senate con-
ferees had found 1t necessary to elm
mate the Senate provision permitting
rural free delivery carriers to take sub
scriptionS for newspapers, and Mr..
Simmons objected to the striking out
of the Senate amendment providing
that the condition of roads in any pro-
posed district should not be allowed
to prevent the establishment of rural
free delivery routes.
Mr.. Frye called up and asked con-
sideration of the bill creating mer-
| chant marine commission. Mr.. Bailey
indicated a disposition to object, saying
| it was his opinion that the commission
would devote itself to the collection OF
data in the interest of a ship subsidy
bill, but Mr.. Frye replied that in all
probability the result would be a
recommendation of discriminating du-
ties. Mr.. Bailey then withdrew his oh
lection and the bill was passed.
Mr. Lodge stated that he would like
to bring up the Philippine bill, provid-
ing there was time. He asked Mr.. AL
lison what was the prospect of adjourn
ment.
Mr. Allison stated that in so far as
appropriation bills were concerned
there could be an adjournment to-
morrow. Il understand that one i'm
portant conference must be disposed of
before we adjourn, the bill relating TO
the canal zone. l learn that it is abso-
lutely essential that it shall be passed
in some form at the present session.
81 understand" remarked Mr.. Lodge,
that there ought to be some Panama
legislation before we adjourn.
80 I understand" answered Mr.. AL
lison.
A resolution authorizing the con-
tinuation during the recess of the in
quiry into the right of Mr.. Smoot to his
seat in the Senate was favorably con-
sidered during the day.
After passing a number of pension
and other minor bills the Senate at
HOP o'clock adjourned until 1890
o'clock tomorrow morning.
