BACK IN The LEAD
Chicago White Sox Jump Over

Tie.
LUCK WAS ALL WITH THEM
Helped Take Game From Boston and
Aided Detroit in Defeat of
Hohlanders.

Chicago, Sept 2G.-Chicago's White
Stockings hurdled back into the lead
over the heads of the Highlanders yes
terday, but it took three of Comiskey {
pitchers. Is White SoX, nine Tigers
and an unassisted double play by Man
ager Jones to put them there. The Chi
cagoans just escaped defeat at the
hands of the tailenders, score TO 2
and Detroit won a game which New
York apparently had cinched.
Half an instant before that unaSSist-
ed double play put a sensational close
10 the south side battle it looked decid-
edly as if Boston's rafting squirt AT the
finish was going 10 carry off the vic
tory for which the Sox had worked so
hard and unluckily, but in the pinch
luck turned and came to their rescue.
Depended on Catch.
Not that the unassisted part of that
double play was essential to victory.
Ii could have been made another way
with equal effectiveness and was made
unaided simply because it came handy
and because of its rarity. But if the
brilliant catch which made the play Il
possibility had been missed. the gloom
out over the stock yards would have
been TOO thick for plow, for at that
time it was supposed that New York
was going to win. the glad tidings from
Michigan not having been received.

RESCUE OF SAILORS.
Thrilling Attempts to Save Crew of tl
 kfnlinG.

Thrilling Attempts to Save Crew of the
 I<ipling.
 New York, Jan. 20.--An account of a strange and thrilling rescue of seven seamen from the ship-wrecked schoon- CT Kipling was brought here today by the steamer Maine from London.
 The steamer found the Kipling on January Il near the British coast sink in gfrom the effects of the pounding of huge waves and sent a boat to take off the Kipling's crew. This boat was manned by an officer and three sailors. It stood alongside the schooner some- times rising to the level of the decks, and sometimes dropping far below them, with the roll of the waves.
 Every man on the Kipling had safely jumped in the bobbing boat. and the oars had been dipped to row away when the schooner swung around so that her bowsprit was directly over the life boat. simultaneously sea rose beneath the boat carrying 1t up and crushing 1t against the bowsprit which struck it directly across the midship section.
 In the midst of snapping oars and flying splinters, the seven seamen from the KipIing leaped up to the bowsprit throwing their arms about available supports and with their feet tried to kick the life boat free from it's perilous position. This they did, but the life boat swept clear of the schooner, ieav- ing them clinging to the bowsprit.
 In the bottom of the boat, one res cuer lay unconscious. having been struck on the head during the col lision and the boat itself so badly damaged that it was in danger of sink ing. It was rowed back to the Maine while the crew of the Kipling clam bered back to the deck of their vessel again. The Maine, however. sent a second life boat to the schooner and this time the ship-wrecked men were safely taken aboard the steamer.

EXCESS OF CAUTION
FRANCE AND GERMAN DELEGATES
 DISTRUsT EACH OTHER.
The Outlook nt AIgeciras Which Has Been so Peaceabie Does Not Now Appear So Favorable For
 Harmony.

Algeciras. Spain, Jan. 2o-Behind the screen of amiability that envelops the relations of the envoys of the powers to the Moroccan conference, a rising feeling of distrust is observable. due seemingly to the unwillingness of both France and Germany to define their positions beyond reaffirming their ad- herence to the open door, the sover- eighty of the Sultan and the integrity of his territories.
 The French delegates in all their conversational reconnoissances with their opponents have been unable to learn precisely what is the position of Germany nor apparently have the Ger man representatives been able to as- certain the joint intentions of France and Great Britain.
 Extreme caution and lack of confi- dence have begun to destroy the fav- orable atmosphere for negotiations which was created by the courtesies and assurances of the first days, There is a feeling among the ambas- sadors of the less interested powers that trouble is in sight. The Moroc- can delegates. have become, conscious of this and take satisfaction there- from.
 The committee examining into the question of contraband has completed the draft of an agreement which will be submitted to the conference Monday. The agreement, while temporarily solv- ing this question, appears to be pur- posely framed to further defer the main issue between France and Ger many.
 The draft provides that the various powers pass laws prohibiting their citi- zens exporting arms to Morocco and the coast patrol against contraband is restricted to Morocco's territorial waters, thus avoiding the search or seizure of vessels upon the high seas. It Is apparent that the theory of the agreement is that Morocco will admin ister the coast patrol, but the draft does not state who will be charged with this duty, and, therefore, the delicate Franco-Gegman controversy concerning whether France alone or all the powers will exercise surveillance Is deferred until the question of police has been examined.
 Copies of the agreement are being printed for distribution to the dele- gates tomorrow prepatatory to discuss sion Monday. As Germany and France are both represented on the committee, the agreement of France to the draft seems to assure the acceptance of the plan by the conference. Both sides express outward satisfaction, the Ger mans appearing to consider this an- other step In deferring Frances exer- else of any special surveillance or au- thority in Morocco.
