F. w. GoodiDg Speaks Of BIZ.

The Salt Lake Tribune publishes
the following interesting account
of what F. w Gooding of this
place had to say recently, while in
Salt Lake concerning the bill which
Is now pending before congress rel
ative to the time for allowing sheep
and cattle to remain in cars il
transit from the point of shipmen
to the market. Mr.. Gooding, VIII
is brother of Governor Goodine
is one of the committee of three
the other committeeman being I
q. Johnson, OF Blackfoot, and "
A. Philbrick, of American Falls
who we're appointed by the Woo
Growers association of Idaho t,
visit Washington, D. c., and cor
fer with the authorities with tb
end in view of having the presen
mea sure so am led that the actua
running time of stock trains shal
be 36 hours instead of % hours q.
at present. The claim is mad
that the frequent loading and un
loa ling of stock is injurious; that
no hardship is worked on the anil
mails by this extension of time;
that time is saved and also de-
probation in value by shrinkage
and other conditions are averted.
The further assertion is made that
the eastern shipper can reach the
with his stock in less than |
half the time required by the
western stockman, and another

hardship is endured by the latter.

hardship is endured by the latter,
Upon reaching Washington Mr..
Gooding and the other members OF
the Idaho committee had a con-
ference with Secretary of Agricul
ture Wilson. On many points
Secretary Wilson agreed with the
committee, and the result was that
the fondation of what is now known
as the French bill was laid. This
measure provides for an actual
running time of 36 hours, for the
unloading of the stock during the
daytime instead of at night, and
that that the train sch ,dule shall
be 18 miles per hour.
The speed limit was objected to
by the railroads, they desiring that
the maximum should be 16 miles
per hour. This amendment has
been virtually agreed to by the
transportation companies, and
thus the bill is satisfactory to
them. Mr.. Gooding stated that
the committee met with the Of
ficers of the National Humane So
ciety at Washington and held an
exhaustive conference with them,
at the conclusion of which Mr..
Gooding states, that the secretary
of the organization was agreeable
to the measure as outlined.
The whole Idaho congressional
delegation is in favor of the mears-
ure, said Mr.. Gooding. Idaho
stockmen figure that they lost
S25O,OOO annually on account of
the operation OF the old measure
and other states have sustained
corresponding losses. We also
interviewed Senators Sutherland
and Smoot. The former said that
he had received only one letter pro-
testing against the old measure,
but what ever ho could do to as
sist the bill he would do. Sena-
tor Smoot was not informed as to
he proposed measure. We did
,ot have any extended converse
ion with him." said Mr.. Gooding,
but he promised his support to
he bill"

McCathran Puzzled Post Office,

Another regularly scheduled doube-head-
er was pulled off on the White Lot yester-
day afternoon. War and Justice being the
Victors defeating Treasury and Post Office
8 to and to 6. the Justice and Post
Office game going for ten innings
Orrison and Rube Clarke were both out
of the game. The former is away onhis
honeymoon and Rube was home attend
ing to his brother, who is dangerously Ill.
As a consequence the mailmen were con-
sderably weakened and presented a patch
ed up infield. McCathran pitched giIt-edge
ball for Justice striking out seventeen men
and allowing but eight hits half of which
were scratches that got by the infieId. He
had perfect control throughout and was
at all times master of the situation He dis
played rare good judgment IN the tenth,
when, with two on bases as q result of an
should have resulted in a double play he
passed Kerr and them with the bases load
ed, retired the next two men with ease.
The fielding of both teams was ragged.
and until the winnn grun was scored in the
tenth it was anybody's game. Justice
started the ball rolling with one run In the
first on a free ticket to first to Bielaski
a passed ball, an error and Wires single
This lead was maintained until the fourth,
when Post Office got busy with their bats
and hits sandwiched with errors gave them
five runs in the next three innings. In the
seventh Justice again took the lead with
four made In much the same manner with
the exception that they were aided by 81
timely two-bagger by Captain Doc. Klein
schmidt. brace of errors allowed Post
Office to tie it up again in the eighth.
Neither side scored in the NINTH and al
though Post Office had the bases loaded In
the tenth with only one down they failed to
score In Justices holt Harveycutter led
off with a single. Then he and Tracy work
ed the hit and run game to perfection.
Tracy laid down beauty of q bunt along
the third base line that drew McMorrice off
the bag, and Harveycutter kept on to third
without hesitating. Adams made a good
return throw to. the bag. but Matthews did
not cover in time and Harveycutter round
ed third and dug for home, scoring the
winning run on a close play at the plate.
Outside of McCathran's pitching this was
the only bit of good heady ball paying dis

Ex-PLAYER SAYS
DON'T JUMP

CHICAGO, July TT hear a lot of talk
going the rounds about certain players con-
templatng jumping the regularly organized
leagues to join hands with the outlaws of
Pennsylvania" said Harry Mccormick,
formerly outfielder of the New Yorks and
now representative of a large eastern steel
manufacturing concern in Chicago. 81
have had some little experience among the
outlaws and my advice to all these would
be contract jumpers Is. Don't. While
there has been no defaulting on salaries
to date, and there may not be in the flu
ture, 1t looks to me as though there was no
future to this so-called lawless base ball
and that eventually the clubs will have to
quit the business entirely or come under
the national agreement. In which event the
naughty boys who forgot their obligations
win get theirs hard and heavy. l played
with the outlaws for two weeks last fall
and received about as good salary as a
man would expect under the circumstances.
I was about to go on my two-weeks' yaca-
ton when I received a message from the
York club asking me for my terms. Three
hundred dollars for two weeks said, and
they accepted the jump. Playing ball was
all the vacation / wanted or needed and
getting $500 for enjoying my vacation as l
desired surely was piece Of luck

LANCASTER NOW
IN A TURMOIL

LANCASTER, July 7.-Great gloom pre-
walls among local cranks. Like a thunder
bolt from a clear sky the announcement
came that First Baseman Jack Deal will
leave after today's game to join the Cincin-
natl team and that Pat Dougherty, the
star outfielder will pack his grip and de-
part for Chicago to join the Americans
of that city.
The news produced shock and a great
sensation, as Deal was confidently regarded
as a fixture for the season, and Dougherty
promised to remain upon his recent visit to
New York. Both men are extremely popu-
lar, and their absence is a heavy blow to
Lancaster and a serious handicap to their
pennant aspirations
1t is said Deal has been advanced $500 and
offered a So, 400 contract for next season,
while Dougherty is to receive a handsome
increase in his earnings. Manager Crolius
was given no time to prepare for the emer-
gency. but he has jumped into the breach
and has the wires hot. The fans have
every confidence in his ability to dig up
capable players II past experience is a
criterion in this direction.
An Indignation meeting of local base
ball fans, incensed at the treatment given
the local Tri-State club recently, was held
In front of the court house last night. A
crowd of more than thousand people were
assembled and series of ringing resolu
tons were adopted.
The resolutions were strongly condemna
tory of the recent actions of Present Car
penter and Umpire Murray. Carpenters
