LEAGUE MEETING
 IN LITTLE ROCK Manager Frank Compliments Kavanaugh'S Home Town TEBEAU DOES WRONG THING kavanaueh Says the Delay In consid- ering Charges Against Howard
 Griffith Is Due to Tebeau's
 Manipulation.
TEBEAU DOES WRONG THING

Little Rock, October 5.-tSpecial)-At a conference between President Kavanaugh of the Southern League and Charles Frank, manager of the New Orleans team, yesterday it was decided to hold the next annual meeting of the Southern League in Little Rock. This decision was reached at the request of Manager Frank, who as manager of the team winning the pennant had the privilege of selecting the place for holding of the annual meeting.
 It has been customary for the meeting to be held in the city which finishes at the top in the previous season but Frank requested that this rule be broken this season and the meeting held in Little Rock. He stated that he desired to do this out of compliment to Little Rock. The date for the meeting has not been set but 1t is expected that 1t will be soon after November l.
 Manipulation by Tebeau.
 The failure of the national board of arbitration to take up the charges pre- ferred by President William Kavanaugh of the Southern League against Howard Griffith, Is due, Judge Kavanaugh de- clared yesterday. to manipulation on the part of George Tebeau, chairman of the board, rather than to his failure to press the charges intimated by a statement given out by Tebeau at Cincinnati We'd nesday.
 Judge Kavanaugh declared that every effort has been made by Tebeau to block the investigation until such time as he and his associates might desire. At the meeting of the board in Cincinnati We'd nesday, Judge Kavanaugh was not pres ent, and George Tebeau, chairman of the board, announced that the complainants not having appeared and 1t being de- sired to give them all the opportunity possible. an adjournment had been taken. and that on Saturday. October IA, at the Imperial hotel in New York City, at Il O clock, the case would again be called
 'The action of George Tebeau's crowd, declared Judge Kavanaugh has been of a character to disgust all those interested In the welfare of league baseball. I pre- ferred charges against Howard Griffith six months ago, and was ready at any time to furnish proof. l charged that he was endeavoring to create dssension among the smaller leagues and engage them In a disastrous fight with the major bodies and especially that he had tried to bulldoze the owners of the clubs of the Southern league into taking up his schemes I was ready to prove these charges at any time and l attended sev- eral meetings of the board for the pur- pose of presenting my proof. l was never given an opportunity to do so, how ever.'

ROBINSON IS OUT
 FOR SECOND PLACE
Mobile Man Allows the Use of His Name as Candidate for Lieuten-
 ant Governor.

Montgomery October 5-(Speeial.) )-The Montgomery Journal prints the following telegram from Mobile this afternoon;
 with the consent and approval of E. M Robinson. the Daily Herald will today put at it's masthead this ticket:
 "For Governor-R. NJ. Cunningham of Jefferson.
 For Lieutenant Governor Edward M. Robinson of Mobile.
 "The announcement will come es com plete surprise to the host of friends of Major Robinson at home, for while Edi- tor Max Hamburger secured a favorable answer from the able Mobilian, the an- nouncement was held in abeyance, and Is made now only because of an article in the Montgomery Journal which would indicate that Major Robinson was in sympathy with MT. Conner.
 MT Robinson has not an enemy In South Alabama, and an eloquent logi- cal speaker he is without an equal among the young men of the state He will take the stump"
 Discussing the announcement the Jour nal says:
 "Wednesday the Journal published an interview with Capt Edward M Rob inson of Mobile. in which the brilliant Mobilan denied the rumor most emphati- cally that he would be in the race for lieutenant governor B. B. Comer's run ming mate; but neither denied nor affirm ed the rumor that he would be a eandi- date for lieutenant governor. According to a special to the Journal from Mobile today. that interview hastened the an nouncement of Captain Robinson, he did not desire any one to be long under the impression that he would be Corners running mate. While the Journals Mo bile correspondent does not say so, it Is Indicated that Captain Robinson will per- init his name used on the Cunningham ticket though this is not clear"

Bad Outlook In Pensacola.

Pensacola, Fla, October 5.-The offi- cial fever summary today is as follows:
 New cases IS; total to date. 203; deaths, g. total to date. 35; cases discharged to date. IS; cases under treatment 90.
 The somewhat increased number of new cases is accounted for partly by the fact that following the bad weather of several days previous. the physicians have been able to locate and diagnose cases that were not reported in the early stages. Another cause is believed to be the fact that the people who at first op posed the efforts of the health authorities are now realizing the seriousness of the

MIR. COMER SAYS
 HE IS POWERLESS
THE RAILROAD COMMISSION HAS
 NO POWER TO FIX RAILROAD
 RATES IN ALABAMA-PRACT cALLY ANNOUNCES CANDIDACY.

Montgomery, October 5.-(special)-A special to the Journal from Greenville says:
 Although he made positive an- nouncement of the fact that he is a can dldate for governor, B. B. Conner, presi- dent of the railroad commission, in a speech here today left his hearers in no doubt of his candidacy against Cunning ham.
 "He took as his subject e1ucation, and said the people should be educated up on the railroad question. In speaking of the fight for governor he said the railroad attorney In politics is never for you
 If you are to send two men down there like me you couldn't change the rate. Did you know that law was framed by a railroad attorney? The legislature can make wou d freight ate, but not the commission. The railroads would enjoin the commission from carrying it out if it should attempt to make rates. You have to face it, who is going to fix the rate? Will you have the manhood to stand up for your rights? Your governor and legis lature are the ones to ,lo f. Your com mission is not in it. Now, you going to send a politician to the governors of- fceY
 Continuing on the subject of the race for governor, MT. Conner said
 I don't know who you have in mind for this office, but ask yourself, 'Is this man for me?'
 During the last campaign said Mir Conner, they used thirty typewriters in your senate chamber sending out litera- ture against me Where was your gov ernor them?
 MT Conner took up the line of speech laid down at Blount Springs that the leg islature should be composed of men fla vorabe to his policy.
 He left none present in the dark about him being in the race. but did not make a positive announcement.

Another class of men took hold of it

Another class of men took hold of 1t Christian business men who saw the wants and needs of the association. There must be something that will at- tract non- Christian men. The first un- dertaking was the gymnasium, and that was the first great start given to the T. M. c. A; soon after this was in- troduced the bowling alley, the educa- tional classes and harmless games were started; then the restaurant and later the billiard table, and now the dormi tories. The association has been in ad- vance of the time of Christian people.
 There is nothing like the educational work in the country. All these things bring young men into the building and 1 train them for the best of life. With 1 all this work there has been no less Christian work done. It has been done on a higher plane than before. The greatest sermon ever preached Is the sermon of example. I have heard men
 tell how to bring up children, but there is just one rule and have never known 1t to fail, and that is the sermon of ex- ample.
 '"The kind of Christian work the asso- citation is doing Is Bible study and Bible teaching. Do you believe that if there are 300 young men in this associa- ton that do the right thing and are gentlemen, who use good language and | live good lives, you can pour in 800 young men who are non-Christians and not have them get the help from that good influence of the 300 men? It Is that kind of Christian work that the association is doing and thtat is being appreciated to-day. It is not a salva- tion army work. It is a higher class of work and must be done in a different manner"
 The keys to the Edwin Bancroft Foote addition were formally presented to the directors and trustees by John T. Manson and accepted on their behalf by Joseph Porter.

THIS CROW A FLUENT TALKER.
Four Years Labor of it's Master Brings
 Great Results.

Four Years Labor of it's Master Brings
 Great Results.
 Four years ago John Don, retired farmer of Morocco, NeWtown County, Indiana, began to teach a crow to talk and has reached results that are little less than marvellous. He has succeed ed in developing the birds language beyond that of many parrots, not only in respect to the sentences it utters but also in the clearness of its articula- tion.
 Don began with a young crow, of which he made pet. Within a year the bird could utter many words dis tinctly, but made but poor headway fearing sentences. A year ago a sec- ond bird was added to the cage and this one learned more readily than the first, for it began to mimic the older crow and was soon speaking all the latter's words, put could not frame them into sentences. Don then began with the younger one and found that sentence building was comparatively easy. There are many things which the crow says that anyone can readily understand.
 Going down in town?" he asks of the passer-by, and Walk right in,' is the way he greets those seen coming toward the house. These sentences and many others are uttered with remark
