Catcher Jaxon.'' otherwise Jack
sullivan, who was worked with the
White Sox for two days, is certainly a
catcher. He can handle any of the
pitchers and is a good man to peg to
second or any other base for that mat
ter. He thinks well of the Topeka
team and says that it is as fast in
many respects as many of the Amer
lean association teams and he ought
to know. He thinks Forester and
Rowan will both stick in Detroit
Jaxon is one of the best catchers in
the American association and by many
he is considered the best. He has
failed to hit this year and that is why
Leahy has been used more by Kansas
City.

Nick KahI does not think that any
of the men who have been signed up
with Detroit from the Western asso-
citation will be able to stick. '"They
have all got what they need" says
Nick, except a head. If Jack Rowan
had everything he has now and my
head to go with it he would be one of
the best pitchers in the country" Nick
evidently thinks he is a pretty good
man.

The fans were all glad to see Halla
warming up in the preliminary prac-
tice yesterday afternoon. HaIla has
nearly recovered from his recent in
jury. He will, however, not try to
pitch for few days owing to the fact
that he turns upon his injured toe
when he is pitching.

Before the game yesterday afternoon
Manager Nick kahl of Leavenworth
received a dispatch from w F. Cav
anaugh. the infielder he has been try
ing to secure for some time from the
Texas league, saying that he would re-
port to the Leavenworth team at Okla
bona City September 4th if his terms
would be satisfactory. Cavanaugh was
with the Corsicana and Temple teams
of the Texas league last season and
has been with Temple this year Last
as third baseman and .S44 as a short
stop. He is considered a conner and
has this year shown much improve
ment over last. Kahl made an effort
to land Texas Jones but Tex is out of
baseball this year and it would take a
good deal to get him to quit umpiring.

Wichita Beacon: I'll D. Winslow,
one of the powers that be- in the
Hutchinson baseball team, was in the
city yesterday. Mr.. Wins1Ow felt dis
gust for the abuse used by the Topeka
Cooleycrows. A recent investigation
by members of the Hutchinson man
agement brought to light five secret
gates in the ball park of that city The
visiting teams have been unaware of
this treatment and have failed to put
their gatemen at these openings. This
proba bly, accounts for the low gate re-
ceipts awarded to the visitors at the

well as untrue

Ahorn on third base. Ahorn, it was

enthusiastic over the fine showing made

LABOR TROUBLES HIT CANAL.
Every Glass of Skilled workmen
Demands Increase in Pay.

Every Class of skilled workmen
Demands Increase in Pay.
Following the example of the locomo-
tive engineers, practically every class of
skilled workmen employed by the isthmian
canal commission made a demand for
higher pay the other day. The steam
shovel engineers, now the best paid crafts
men on the isthmus, have asked for $50
a month, an increase of $40. Other de-
mandS made are Railroad conductors,
from $40 to 500; shovel cranemen,
from $1S5 to 500; shovel fremen, from
$50 to $40; molders, blacksmiths and
machinists, from 60 to 81 cents an hour.
Locomotive engineers asked for 1928
month, and are getting $3.50. They work
eight hours. If called upon to work more
hours the enginemen, trainmen and
shovelmen are required to do so without
extra compensation. Molders, black
smiths and machinists are paid time and
a half for overtime. All shop employees
are permitted to work as much overtime
as they desire, as the commission is badly
in need of these classes of mechanics. Ma
chinists at some shops frequently draw
from 5000 to $3.50 a month unde; the
present rate of pay. No word has been
received from the commission as to the
disposition to be made of the demands.

HORSES HARD TO GET.
Difficult to Provide the Cavalry with
Animals.


Difficulty is experienced by the quarter
master generals department of the armo
to obtain horses and mules. Even at
high prices good cavalry horses are scarce
and almost impossible to procure. The
scarcity is not local, but extends through
out the country, even in the stock-raising
regions of the West and Northwest. A
few weeks ago contractor in the State
of Washington was awarded a contract
to supply the army with about 800 cav
airy horses at his bid of $92 a head. He
has been unable thus far to fill the con-
tract, and it is regarded as likely that he
may be ruined financially in his efforts to
meet his obligation to the government
short time before Gen. Funston was or
dered to Cuba he requested authority to
purchase, in an emergency, fifty cavalry
horses at $50 a head. The request was
not granted by the department because of
the contract which the government had
made for such horses at 500 a head. Be
cause of the scarcity of horses, animals
suitable for the cavalry now are worth
about 81 10 a head. Mules are even scarcer
than horses. They are worth about $3.50
a head, and are difficult to get at that
price because of the great foreign de-
mand.

BANK SHUT AND CASH GONE.
Private Institution at Middleport;
Ohio, Wrecked-Owner Missing.


The Middleport bank, private institu-
ton at Middleport, Ohio, failed to open
its doors Friday. 1t is stated that all
the deposits, amounting to $115,50O, are
missing. Most of the depositors are poor,
and their deposits represented nearly all
their savings. The president of the bank
IS e. c. Fox, who is away, and in his
absence no official statement of the con-
dition of the bank has yet been made.
William Horden, an old merchant, became
so angered over the loss of a heavy de-
post that he secured a revolver and
sought Vice President Thomas 4. Armen-
trout at his home in the Fox addition,
with the ayowed purpose of shooting the
banker. He was intercepted just in time.
just before dark Armentrout was arrest
ed on a warrant sworn out by Prosecuting
Attorney Miller and taken to Pomeroy,
where he gave bond for his appearance.
President Fox has been located at To-
ronto, Ohio, where his wife's people re-
side, and his arrest ordered. President
Fox went away the previous Tuesday,
leaving Vice President Armentrout in full
charge. An examination of the vaults
after Fox had gone revealed $1,000 in
cash and paper worth less than $4,000

The insurgents profess to be delight
ed with the situation as it has devel-
oped, and while the liberal followers
of ex-President Palma are sullen it is
not likely that they will commit any
overt act.
Secretary Taft believes the rural
guard can be absolutely relied upon to
uphold him, and that with them and
the marines already in Cuban waters
he can crush any mischief makers in
quick order.

ward Cuba. Mobilization of the force

and that the insurgents intend to lay
down their arms The probability is
that United States forces in the island
will be landed only as precautionary
measure. So far as officials of the gov
eminent are advised. no trouble Of a
serious kind is expected. but, in accord

Roosevelt. hurried preparations are

Funstan to Command.
The troops in Cuba will be commanded
by Brig. Gen. Frederick Funston, whose
military career began with his service in
the Cuban army of liberation, before the
Spanish-American war When that was
begun he was commissioned colonel of the
famous Twentieth Kansas volunteers. He
participated in all the heaviest fighting of
the Philippine instruction. His capture
of Aguinaldo practically ended the rebel
lion. President Mckinley promoted him
to be brigadier general, and he has served
since in the United States. He was sta
toned at San Francisco at the time of
the earthquake last May and practically
ruled the city under military law for
weeks after that disaster. Gen. Funston
will retain the command of the army in
Cuba unless it should be necessary to
send more than one brigade, in which
event a superior officer would assume com
mand

BIGANIIsT's ESTATE IN MIx-UP.
First Wife and Children of the Sec
oud Divide Property.

In Wichita, Kan, Federal Judge Pol
lock rendered a decision in an unusual
case that came up from Comanche county.
1t was the result of an alleged bigamous
marriage by James Mclaughlin. Nc
Laughlin was an old soldier who deserted
his wife, Rebecca, in Pennsylvania, and,
coming to Kansas with a young woman
named Annie Scott, married her and lived
with her thirty years, raising eight chill
dren. Upon his death the second wife,
who says she knew nothing of his previ-
Gus marriage, applied for a pension, and
this led to the discovery of wife No. /.
The court decided that the Pennsylvania
wife was entitled to half the estate and
McLaughlin's children by his second wife
were entitled to the other half, while the
second wife was entitled to nothing,
though it was largely through her efforts
that the property was accumulated.
