DOPE FOR THE FANS.

Bloomington, in order to avoid buy
ing new suits for its players, has had
it's old ones dyed black. President Mil
Ter of the team, also, in order to save
a ground-tender's salary, is doing the
work himself. Just before the game
Monday, Miller entertained the crowd
by driving a jackass hitched to
mower.
The Bloomington management has
announced the signing of Louis Wag-
ner, recently released by Peoria. An
other new player announced is George
Hei:ner, Peoria amateur, who is to be
assigned to the outfield. Pearce, the
catcher. who was secured from Spring
field lately, is to be released because
of inability to hit, and it is claimed
several other new men are in sight.
Report has it. that Manager Frank
Donnelly was fined $25 for the part
he took in the disgraceful affair at
Springfield last Saturday when he
rushed Umpire Shuster and trampled
on his toes for giving decision that
didn't just suit him. Some of the
other players were also fined but 1t
was lesser penalty.

papers are giving much space to roast

SUMMER AT BUCKEYE
The Heat Conditions Intensified by a
 Fire.

Buckeye. Ariz., June 11.-(Special Correspondence of The Republican.)- I fancy if one is looking for warm weather and can find it, if he will call at Buckeye for a few days ne can cer- tainly locate it. The thermometer stood at 112 degrees in the shade yes terday at one of the coolest places in the valley. There was a break in the mOnotony fo the city life of Buckeye Saturday in the shape of a fire. The house of William Hawkins was burn ed to the ground with all the house. hold furniture. The building was a large frame structure built years ago for a church by the South Methodist people. Later it was used as a dance hall and then as a dwelling. As no one was at home at the time the fire started it is hard to say for certain just what caused il. but it is supposed a bunch of matches left in a west win dow did the damage.

w. A. Hutchinson Kills Himself in
 Hotel at Laconia, N. H.

Laconia N. H., June 12.-Financial troubles are supposed to have led to the suicide of William A. Hutchinson, whose dead body was found today in a room in the Mount Belknap house, where he registered yesterday. The body lay across the bed, with bullet hole under the chin. A revolver lay on a commode close by and there were also two bottles partly filled with car boIic acid, some of which Hutchinson had evidently swallowed before shoot in himself.
 Hutchinson was 45 years old and married. For four years he had been employed as d clerk in a dry goods store here. When he went to the hotel yesterday he registered under the name of c. W. Richardson, and after going to his room was not seen again until the hotel clerk broke into the room to- day and discovered the tragedy. Medi- cal Referee Bickford pronounced the case one of suicide.

While burning some weeds, a large whirlwind came and scattered the fire in some dry grass where it spread rapidly and burned over several acres of ground and in cidentally a hay stack and a fence o1 two.

You will find the walk ing superb down to Benson, where we will be delighted to meet you with an automOwheelbarrow. and form a gor- geOus pageant on into Douglas.
 A friendly mention of our virtuous plans including d s1,7OO drilling contest purse, a $500 horse race a S40O ball game and every attraction along with ample accommodations for all would be profoundly appreciated by the peo- pie of Douglas should it appear in the columns of The Republican.

SOUTH OVERLOOKED
M'CREAY SAYS IMMIGRATION AR-
 RANGEMENTs ARE SECTIONAL.
Cotton States Have No Representatives in Service and Aliens are All
 Showed on Crowded City Districts.

Washington, May 23.-when the Senate resumed consideration of the immigration bill today, the committee amendment authorizing the creation of a Bureau of Information for the benefit of immigrants was taken up.
 Senators Spooner, Lodge. Gallinger and other criticised the provision on providing for the collection and distri- button of data concerning the resources of the various States and Territories
 MT Gallinger moved to strike out all of the amendments except that portion permitting the various States to be represented by agents at the imnigra- ton stations. and Senator McCreary opposed the motion. He said that es- pecial efforts had been made to secure a better distribution of immigrants than is obtainaple under the present system
 Now. he said, most of the new-com- CTS locate in the Eastern States and large cities. where they are not needed; whereas, the South, where immigration Is dsired. Is almost entirely over looked.
 In support of his contention, he said that 2s5. .00O aliens located In New York last year and only 500 sought homes in Kentucky. He also called attention to the fact that the South Is not repre- sented in the immigration service. and criticised the arrangement as seo- tional
 After further debate, Mir. Gallinger's amendment was modified and adopted. As agreed to. it authorizes the creation of a Bureau of Information. limits the expense to $2o.o0O and authorizes States and Territories as corporations inter ested in immigration to maintain agcn- cies at the immigration stations.
 A suggestion by Senator McCreary authorizine the appointment of a com missioner of immigration at New or- leans was agreed to.

Mfr. Aldrich Wants Material For Con-

 Washington, May 23.--Secretary Taft today appeared before the Senate Com mittee on Finance and urged that Con gress give to the Panama canal com mission authority to purchase two steel dredges in the foreign market and to take action authorizing the purchase abroad of other supplies when 1t is found that prices for supplies of domes- tic manufacture are extortionate.
 The committee authorized the re- porting of a resolution which would limit purchases in the foreign market to supplies that cannot be purchased at reasonable prices in the United States. The resolution follows:
 That purchases of material and eqip- rnent for use in the construction of the Panama canal shall be restricted to articles on domestic production and manufacture. unless the President shall in any case deem the bids or tender therefor to be exorionate or unreason- able"
 MT. Aidrich made an effort to secure the passage of the resolution on the Senate But owing to objections on the part of Senators action was postpon- ed until tomorrow.

 The Scripture referred to in the re- ply follows:
 Forbid us to speak to the Gentiles. that they may be saved to fill up their sins always. but the wrath has come upon them to the uttermost, but we. brethren, being bereaved of you for a short season in presence. not in heart. endeavor the more exceedingly to see your face with great desire
 This exchange of sentiments Is taken to indicate that before the adjourn ment of the assemblies, union between the two churches will have been ef- fected
 The assembly, today adopted the fol- lowing anti -polygamy resolutions:
 "The assembly records its gratifica- ton and satisfaction in the proposed submission to the Legislatures of the several States a new article, to be known as Article Is, of the Constitu- ton of the United States. prohibiting potygamy. and polygamous cohabita- tion in the United States, and 1t reiter- ates its former council to all members of the church to exert their influence in their several localities to secure the ratification of such amendment if said joint resolution proposing said amend ment be adopted by the Senate and the House of Representatives of Congress.
 It was ordered that copies of the resolution be sent to The President Of the United States and tho presiding off, ficers of both Houses of Congress.
 In striking contrast to this was the action of the assembly in turning down the resolution offered yesterday. me- morializing Congress against appropria- tions of public money for sectarian purposes J. F Moffatt. chairman of the Committee on Bills and Overtures, explained that the precedent was for the assembly to keeps hands off" of questions of civil legislation. The re- quest of the committee that negative action be taken was upheld by a small majority. The committee offered no explanation for recommending the adoption of the memorial on polygamy which was unanimously adopted.
 An effcrt was made to continue the discission of the book of forms today, but after debate further consideration of the subject was put off until late this afternoon.

NO BOND ISSUE AT PRESENT.
Chairman Gary of Steel Corporation AfalEea
 a Statement.

New York May 22 A report was in eir- culation in Wan Street today to the affect that the United States Steel Corporation was about to negotiate bond issue. When shown this report Ebert H Gary, chairman of the board of directors of the unttea states Steel Corporation said;
 T stated to the press about two months ago that part of the cost of the large riant which is being constructed in Indiana. near Chicago. may be financed sooner or later but that large proportion at least would be paid for out of earnings
 There is no change in the situation since that time except that tho amount of eash set aside from earnings to apply on the ex- penditures at this point has been increased. There Is now available for this purpose about Si5 00o, 900. and 1t is doubtful if we cnn spend more than that sum during this veor It is therefore evident that no bonds need be issuad ia the near future.
 ''Uhethsr bonds will be issued to provide cash for a part of the cost of this plant is a question for future confederation by our finance committee and board of directors The question will probably be considered very soon"
