DISCOVERY O
An OLD CITY
AMERICAN ETHNOLOGIST FINDS
REMAINS OF ANTIQUE TOWN IN
SOUTH AMERICA.

NEW YORK Sept I'm. II. Saville,
professor of ethnology at Columbia
university, who has returned from
trip to Ecuador, said he had discovered
the ruins of cities near the coast which
contained many evidences of a race
hitherto unknown to present-day
scientists.
The professors researches extended
along the Pacific coast about fifty
miles to the north and about the same
distance"to the south of the equator.
Somewhere between these points and
to a distance about 100 miles inland
he found evidences of a city of anti
guilty. The city, he said had streets
lined with houses of singular construc-
ton Though the dwellings had been
made of light material, a sort of pal
metto or thatch, they had been con-
structed evidently with a view of with
standing the shocks of the frequent
earthquakes of the region, and were
intact
In them were found utensils for
cooking and other domestic purposes
made of pottery, wood and the like.
He said he believed the city had con-
tanned 5000 or more people, 500 years
ago.
In his opinion the race was one of
the highest in civilization living in
America previous to the coming of
Columbus.

.SOCKER FOOTBALL
LEAGUE TO MEET
CONSIDERABLE DOUBT AS TO
WHETHER GAMES WILL BE
PLAYED THIS YEAR.

DO the Seeker Football players in
tend to play this year, or Is the sport
going to die a natural death? seems
to be the one question that is causing
no end of speculation among the low
e.s of the game. The players say
they are still on the job"
The constitution of the league calls
for a meeting in October when officers
are elected for the coming year, and
other matters If importance are taken
up. The meeting of the league has
been called by President MCGill and
Secretary Beardmore, for the latter
part of October The games will start
later than usual this year on account
Of the hot weather, but the lovers OF
the game can rest assured that they
will have a chance to see their favor
lite game played this year
One of the most serious kicks the
players have is the question OF
grounds, and they think that it would
be much better to have grounds nearer
in town, where people could come and
see the games and not to charge any
admission. The Makik grounds are
favored by the majority of players,
as they are in the best of condition,
while some of the players are in favor
of having the games played this year
at Aala Park. The chances are that
at the meeting next month either the

the cause of the Winter League post
poning their games this year. In
talking about the matter yesterday
Pat Gleason who has always taken an
interest in the league stated that the
coming of such a strong collection of
players from the coast would be bound
to detract good many people away
from the Winter League games, and
that the best thing to do would be 10
postpone the series entirely until next
year. and then start all over again.
There IS no use Gee starting the games
this year because just as soon as the
League began to get interested in the
games, the coast team would arrive
and all interest would be centered on
their games

MAY GO TO MORGAN.
Postal Expert Likely to Get the New
York Post Office.

Following the resignation Of w. R..
Wilcox as postmaster Of New York.
which was accepted by President Roose-
Welt yesterday. the opinion Is expressed
by officials of the Post Office Department
that the position may ultimately fall to
Edward M. Morgan. who has been as
sistant postmaster of New York for many
years.
Mr.. Morgan was anxious to get the
post two years ago. but received little
encouragement. Now. however it is said
that his record as postal expert. his
knowledge Of the postal administration
Of New York and his Endorsement by
business men OF the city have brought
about a change in attitude.
New Yorks two senator's. who ordi-
narily would be consulted In such an
appointment, have not been considered
recently in matters Of federal patronage,
nor is 1t believed that 1t will be permitted
for the New York county republican or
ganization to dictate its wishes to the
nominee for the post. thus establishing
a precedent Representative Herbert
Parsons has candidate for whom he is
working hard.

SPECIAL-DELIVERY LETTERS.
They Can Be Transmitted With
Ordinary Stamps.

Special-delivery stamps to carry special
delivery letters became unnecessary yester-
day when the regulation passed by the
recent Congress went into effect. permitting
the use of 10 cents worth of ordinary
stamps. in addition to the postage for car
rying the letter. in lieu of the familiar blue
oblong with a picture of an incredibly
speedy messenger boy.
Hereafter all that one who desires to dis
patch a special-delivery letter need do is
to affix the requisite letter postage. then
put on the envelope an extra 10 cents in
stamps, writing near them the words "spe-
cial delivery" Without these magic words
the extra 10 cents will be wasted, for the
letter will pass through the usual channels
and be delivered by the regular postman.
This regulation. II is believed. will be
found a great convenience to persons who
wish to send special-delivery letters and
find it either impossible or inconvenient
to obtain the special stamps. But these
stamps will still be obtainable the new
order not affecting their in the least
but merely providing an alternative.
The Washington post office reports that
many special-delivery letters have been re-
ceived and sent under the new regulation
and that the public generally is taking ad-
vantage of the privilege accorded.

act as an Independent factor in the present
combination lockout and strike.
The executive committee Of the council

ANT1-JAPANEsE SENTIMENT.
Comments of Toxic Journal on the
American Question.

TOXIC. July 1.-The Nichi Nichi in a
leader regrets the necessity of being COM
PEELED to write again on the American
question In defense of the rights of Jap
anese compatriots in San Francisco.
Developments in the anti-Japanese senti-
ments.'' says the Nich Nichi. "show signs
of progressive and systematic movements
aiming at the deprivation of the sources of
livelihood of our compatriots. The last
clause of article 2 of the treaty can prop
erly be called into operation only after a
law has been passed, but no legal step has
been taken by the federal government dis
abling the Japanese from engaging in the
employment agency business. The action
of the San Francisco authorities is unbear-
able. Neither Washington nor the Toxic
government can remain inactive in view of
the latest action of San Francisco against
the Japanese. The time has come when
the traditional friendship between both ma
lions shall be demonstrated in some con-
crete FORM

ordinary caliber and is one of the trusted
lieutenants Of Marquis Ito. Diplomatic
