Threatening weather kept a large

number of scores the team has made
against any team in tine league. The

the first inning. The Indians play

inning by three bases on balls, one
man struck by the ball and three
hits. The Indians scored again in

three TALES in each inning. In these
innings a thrown ball to catch base

The Cincinnati Enquirer says;
Charley Street was given his first
chance to catch full game In Red
Hosiery and he performed to the
satisfaction of all, behind the bat.
The game was not a severe test for
him as the Cardinals hitting was
light, and the bases were unoccupied
large part of the time. No one had
the nerve to try to steal on him. so
his throwing in practice must have
looked all right. He backstopped In
perfect style, but could not hit a lick.
That is quite natural after his long
lay-off. which is bound to affect the
batting eye first of all. Streets per-
Torrance indicates that he is ready
to go in and do good work whenever
he is called on.

Peters Will Not Resign.

Col. E. S. Peters. Vice-President
of the Southern Cotton Association,
has just returned to Texas from an
extended sojourn in the East, says a
Dallas, Texas, dispatch of last Tues
day. He found letter from Prssi-
dent Jordan of the Association,
dated August 14th, which contains
what Col. Peters says is the first
formal notice that he had been "sus-
pended" In his answer to Mr.. Jor-
dan, he says: GAS | wired you on
receipt of your telegram [ will not
resign the office of Vice-President,
and you have no authority to sus-
pend" The letter contains also
specific denial offS+he charge made by
President Jordan that Col. Peters
used his influence against the South
ern Cotton Association in it's effort
to press the investigation of the
Bureau of Cotton Statistics. He
declares he was sent for by District
Attorney Beach, to whom he gave
information and promised to assist
him in every way in his power. Col.
Peters says: "Now the whole trou-
BILE comes from my not approving
your action in asking the resigna-
tion of the Hon. James Wilson, Sec
retary of Agriculture, which you
asked on your own volition. [ sug-
gest that you apologize for your ac-
tion in this matter in as public
way as you gave it out"

be proud. In fact, we know some
