Urged by the stockholders of the To-
cal association. President l.. S. Peck
ham Monday evening consented to be-
come this city's candidate for the pres
idency of the Iowa State League,
which is soon to be made vacant by
the expiration Of President Nortons
term. Mr.. Peckham's candidacy,
backed by the support of the local as

a factor in the election by securing the
support of the other three cities of the
northern half of the circuit which are

meeting In Ottumwa october 10, will
lie accompanied by F. G. Pierce and S.

Annual Meeting Postponed.
All important actions, which might
have had a bearing on the future OF
the association and the game locally,
were passed by at the annual meeting
Of the stockholders held in Finlale'
hall Monday evening. The affairs OF
the association are, as yet. not in suit
able shape for a final representation,
and there is in progress of organization
at the present time another associa-
ton, which will take the place of the
old. When it is under way, and ready
to take over the affairs of the old. the
annual meeting of the old association
will be held and its stock will be vo-
ted to the new association This flu
ture meeting viii not be held until af-
ter the league meeting and will be sub
iect to the call of the president. 1t will
probably be late in October or early in
November.
Deficit to Make Up.
There will be a deficit after all the
outstanding bills Of the association are
paid, which will total about 5000 This
may be reduced several hundred doll
lars by the sale and draft Of players
The drafting season begins on October
Is, and lasts for one month, and it is
very likely that at least two and pos
sbly three players, Bruggeman, Greene
and Middleton, will be drafted. Should
this prove the case, the association
will receive 500 each for them when
the draft is made, and the same
amount for each when they report
next spring. The association will en-
deavor to make up the rest of the de-
ficit, so that when the transfer OF
stock to the new association takes
place, the new will be unincumbered
by debt. The total expenses Of the as
ISOLATION to date have been $9,62O.66
and the receipts ss,9s9.09. There is
still unpaid bills amounting to about
$1,000, and uncollected receipts of
about $42O, which are yet to come in.
This will leave deficit Of about 1921,
which will be materially lessened
should the players referred to be draft

REGULAR REPRESENTATIVES Of

CHARLESTON Nv. Va; Feb. 81.
The finding OF the Elliott letter m tsn:

ones with Sherlock Holmes like in.
genlllty, to high grade burglary, but
there is one explanation that bears The
earmarks Of reason and probability,
and has the merit Of coming from
practically UNREASONABLE authority.
II has long been rnmored that
Major Elliott coveted the position
held by G. E, Wells and w. a.. ohley
as legislative agents of the Standard
Oh Company. and the latter resented
his interference in their business.
The Standard maintains It's regular
bureau for the, gathering Of knowledge
and the moulding Of Legislation. and Il

compelled to recognize his ability

his continuous and possibly volunteer
performance as an information pur.

This is said TO have caused feeling
Of resentment TO I'LL the true and
sturdy hearts Of those who had been
doing business at the old stand for
some years and then the opportunity
appeared. II is reported that n proln.

room. That he showed 1t TO others.

What the Standard as a "Thhis,"
thinks OF the sq,iabble between some
