INTEREST I'M THE GREAT GAME
Second Of the Series for the Baseball
Championship Calls Out a
Big Crowd.

Chicago, ILL.,, Oct 9.~Hours be-
fore the games were due to open all
the streets IL the vicinity of the
west Side grounds were thronged
with people eager to gain admittance
to witness the second game between
the respective champions of the
American and National leagues. The
crowds were SO derise that street
traftic was greatly hampefed.
The weather conditions we're not
ideal for base ball. The sky was
completely clouded and the air was
damp and cold. Uncertainty existed
regarding the batteries for the op-
posing teams. 1t was thought most
probable that Pfiester would be put
In the box for Chicago with King
behind the bat. Siever and Schmidt
1t Is said, will begin the fray for
Detroit.
Darkness last evening ended the
initial game for the championship,
the score standing to 3 after q
strenuous contest OF 13 innings.
Early as ten o'clock this morning
5000 people lined the gates eager
to obtain seats. The crowd con-
tinued increasing with every street
car. The weather later In the day
gave promise OF being better for the
game than yesterday, the sun coming
out bright and warm. No changes
are likely to be made in the make
up OF the two teams, the pitchers
alone being in doubt. The game will
be started ct two O'Clock. half an
hour earlier than on yesterday. "

4 PECULIAR SUIT
; Right to Drill for Oil On
School Grounds
IN SUPREME COURT

An interesting piece of litigation
mas come to the supreme court OF
appeals through an appeal awarded
to John Herald and others by Judge
Brannon, in a. suit wherein the Board
OF EDUCATION Of Sardis district OF
Harrison county is the defendant.
The plaintiffs John Herald, Thomas
L. Dye David F. Wright and Elias
Pitts, appeal from Judgment OF
Judge, John w. Mason, acting Tor
Judge Lynch in the Harrison county
circuit court, In modifying and d:s-
solving an Injunction which enioined
Rowland and Grove from drilling for
OIL and gas on lot upon which q
schoo building is located in Sardis
district. -. f.. =
= The Board of Education of that
district purchased a rectangular lot
and erected thereon a school build
ing. In the immediate vicinity there
was much drilling for oil and gas and
the board, thinking the district
would profit thereby, gave q lease to
Rowland and Grove to drill for oil
and gas upon the property. Then
came six taxpayers of Sardis district,
|patronsNof the school. asking that
Che dril1ers be- enioined from pro-
Eceeding with the work, averring that
It tnterfered with the work Of the
school children. and that II the
Fdrillers, were successful in finding
I.Bas, and Oil, the pipe lines and tanks
That would have to be erected to care
For the product would spoil the
grounds for the recreation Of the
tchildren.
E The temporary restraining order
prayed for was< granted by Judge
l.Mason and the board set up as an
l!answer that they had the legal right
to execute the lease and that the op-
lposition to the same was In purA
issuance Of a conspiracy between the
Epfatntiffs and w. H. Nicholson At
1.-THE hearing the court modified and
Edtssolved the injunction, stating that
Rowland and Grove could continue
the drilling as long as there were no
fschool, and that after school began
they must work only before and after
fschool hours and that In no manner
must they interfere with the school.

-. -. -. Leader -. ..
Episcopalians, gathered here in the
great triennial convention of their
church, will find themselves sharply
confronted by the color question
which has caused so much disturb
ance In the country generally. We
assume that they will take some de-
ctsiye action. Usually they do not
eyade problems or shrink from re-
sponsibilities.
Intelligent people throughout the
world will watch with keen interest
FOR the results Of the conventions
consideration Of the matter. AS we
understand, one course proposed by
many men strong in the church is
that the denomination cut iself loose
from the Negro, practically ignoring
his existence, leaving him to organ
lie for himself, If he wishes, q church
of his own with Episcopalian form
and methods but not recognized by
the general church. Another sugges-
ton Is that Negroes be encouraged
to form distinct organization with
the general cooperation and protec-
ton OF the church In America, but
separated from 1t. OF course the OBJ
|jections to these propositions are OBJ
vious. 1t would be hard to reconcile
complete and disregard or nearly ten
millions Of people with the precepts
and genertl practices Of any Chris
ttan church. 1t would be equally
hard to reconcile the existence of two
Episcopal churches with some OF the
foundation doctrines and teachings
Of that organization. '''
We believe that in the course Of
time the churches will be forced to
follow the same general course that
has been taken by the people Of the
South in their secular and political
affairs and draw clear lines Of div
isfon between the two races and, in
fact, between the white race and all
others. All Of us will be forced to
recognize the fact that this Is a white
mans country and that racial purity
musts-be> maintained. While the Me-
gro was political factor and threat
ened to become social force, strife
in the South was constant and appre~
hension was acute. Somewhat sim
liar conditions on the Pacific coast
and in Canada have developed like
results. AS soon as Chinese, Japan
csc or Hindus began to gain strength
of number the whites rose almost
unanimously to drive them out.
Whatever may be the apparent or
temporary provocation, or occasion,
the underlying cause is the instinc-
tive, Unborn resentment Of the white
man against the rivalry and}presence
Of any race which he cannot assim-
ilate and with which he cannot blend.
The black and yellow races will con-
tinue to have the gospel preached to
them and we suppose that missionary
work among them will be prosecuted
vigorously. We do not believeS how
ever, that in this country they ever
will be admitted to actual equality
and contact with white people, In

SUIT. STEVENS PROTESTS.
IIIAmes Attorney.Ge neraI for Delay In
Calling for barge Canal Bids.

ALBANY. June 2l.-State Superintendent
OF Public Works F. c. Stevens to-day de-
clared that the delay in calling for bids on
$9,OO0.OOO worth Of barge canal work on
three contracts submitted to the canal
board in April is due to the failure OF the
Attorney-General to approve the form OF
contract as required under the barge canal
act. Superintendent Stevens says that he
wrote the Attorney General yesterday that
the contract in the form passed upon by
former Attorney-General Mayer would be
used. In his letter he say
Il most emphatically protest against
any such unseemly delay in a matter of
30 much public importance. a delay which
from my standpoint would seem to be in
defensible.'
Acknowledgement jackson. replying TO
Supt. Stevens's reflections on the delay in
his Office, gave out a copy OF a letter he sent
to-day TO MIR. Stevens:
"Iadvise you, y says the Attorney General,
that the question as to form OF canal con-
tracts has been receiving In this department
the consideration due TO its importance and
that your lack Of familiarity with the legal
questions involved as well az the numerous
other matters pertaining 10 the conduct OF
this department, renders your gratuitous
criticism concerning 'unseemly delay
which from you standpoint would seem TO
be i~ndefensible. unwarranted and inner
tinent.
The Acknowledgement says his investiRa-
ton OF the subject was hindered by alb
sence from the city OF Supt. Stevens, with
whom, he says, he desired TO confer. He
adds that he has prepared some changes
in the form OF contract which he believes TO
be for the best interest Of all concerned.

CLEVELAND. June 81. Senator Foraker
to-day attacked President Roosevelt In an
address before the convention Of the Ma
tional Association Of Freight Trafio Agents
at Put In Bay.
The delegates ~applauded him heartily
when he defended his attitude on the Hep
burn bill and raped the President
Tit Senator briefly reviewed b history
OF railroad building. the practice OF granting
rebates, and then talked Of the breaking OF
the law against rcbating. and added:
We took the matter up In Congress. not after
President Roosevelt had called attention TO II,
but before. apparently. President Roosevelt
had heardanything about 1t. There was q bill
introduced In Congress which finally became
a law. and 10 known IN the Elkins law.
During the last two years, under the Elkins
law Q record has been made. a record which
shows that the law was the effective measure
we intended to make 1t. O record that shows
conclusively. as some Of us stated when the
Hepburn bill came to be considered that 1t was
a law OF such character that only needed to be
enforced to accomplish the remedies which
w were all seeking to provide.
Every prosecution about which you have
heard during the last two years against
railroads or shippers on account OF rebates
or discrimination has been brought under
the Elkins law. and although the Hepburn
law has been In force more than a year, not
a suit Of the kind has been brought under
it and never will be brought as long as the
Elkins law stands.
We have the most strenuous President
this country has ever had. He is never still
q minute. He has a great big, broad, strong.
capable mind. and he wants to be doing
something great and something good for
his country every hour. As a result we have
a great many suggestions that we are to be
called upon to l~egislate about when we as

The accounts OF Andrew Freedman as

MRS. B4LLOU'S DRESS BILL.
Appellate Division Holds IL Isn't a Proper
Charge on walter Watrous's Estate,

The judgment for S5,s25 obtained by
Rachel E. Oatman, a dressmaker, against
the estate OF Walter w. Watrous, for dresses
and clothes supplied to Katherine Ballou
was reversed yesterday by the Appellate
Division Of the Supreme Court. Katherine
Ballou Ia now Mrs. Brown. but before
Watrous died in June, 1908, she passed often
as his wife and lived with him openly.
Mime. 0atman set up that she had SUD-
piled Mrs. Ballou with clothes on the ex-
press understanding that Watrous would
pay for them. The dressmaker declares
that she understood Mrs. Ballou to be
recognized by Watrous as his common law
wife. The testimony showed that he had
allowed the woman we'll over 81, 200 a month
for more than a year before his death. and
Justice Mclaughlin, writing the Appellate
Division'e opinion, says that whether she
we're the wife OF Watrous or not. this allow
ance was ample to relieve him OF any
further liability for her clothing.
Nor 10 there enough evidence, Justice
Mclaughlin says, Of any special promise or
undertaking by Watrous 10 pay, for the
clothes supplied by Mime. 0atman 10 Mrs
Ballou. and without suoh q contract or
agreement clearly established there can
be no recovery against the estate.
