with an out at first base.
Just to tie matters up nicely the
Boodlers came through with a brace
in the second. JOY hit to Dillon, who

as the latter crossed to cover the bag.
Carnes got the ball all right, but he
missed the bag and the Poi Destroyer
heaved to, putting slightly. Spencer
took a walk and Mohler hunted down
the first base line. Cap. Dillon, who
must have been thinking of that dear
old Minneapolis. hashed the chance,
but recovered in time to make a close
decision at first base. Bool said the
old man was out, but there are several
hundred people who must be shown the
evidence in the case. AS it was the

Moriarity walked, filling the bases,
and Hildebrand flew to Dillon, leaving
the sacks in the same congested condi-
ton. Irwin came to the bat and then
the same old hoodoo appeared for it

and took the wallop on the funny bone

got to thinking about this and that
may have been the reason he failed
to glue the mitt to a hot one which
Carnes passed over. The ball went
on to the stand and two runs chased
home, the second one scoring because
Carnes, who ran to cover the plate,
failed to get his man on the slide.

Barney Joy seemed to be the only

BARNEY JOY IN
FORM At LAST
Only Pitcher to Win Against
the Los Angeles
Team.

Barney Joy seems to be the real thing
in the San Francisco baseball team at
present. In the last files OF papers
from the Coast he gets most hattering
compliments on his pitching and the
best game of all was played on the day
the mail left for this city, and so no
account of it has been obtained here
yet. The last mentioned was a 13 in
ming game played on July 8.
On June 80 he shut out the Los An
geles team, the heaviest hitters in the
league, on the home grounds and

with himself than he was and so writes
from the Coast. In letter to
friend which was received yesteday he
says:

suit of it. 1 am now pitching fine

are winning and hope they will keep it
up. 1 have nothing much TO say but
give my regards to the boys and aloha

Your sincere friend,

The Los Angeles Examiner in telling
of the shutout game, which Barney
pitched in that city, says:
Yesterdays game kept this series
from becoming monOtonOus. Barney
Joy, the justly celebrated poi destroyer
from Poi Crossing, Hilo. was present
with the goods, and he played even for
the walIoping which Carnes handed
him last Tuesday.
Something was wrong with c. c..
Carnes of Yuma yesterday afternoon.
There was no wild glare in his pretty
blue eye and no indications that he
had stepped down from the water wag
on lately, but he was certainly off on
the wrong foot, and every time he
grooved one some miscreant from
Boodieville swung from his ankle and
hit the ball on the nose. Carnes stuck
to his medicine like a good boy and
he was always trying, but the things
which happened to him were certainly
uncouth.
The Yuma boy started out ali to the
good After poking three wide ones
over at Spencer, Carnes grooved the
next three and struck out the peppery
little man from the Mission. Then Kid
Mohler found one to his liking and,
swinging hard, drove the ball far into
right field. Moriarity came along and
hammered out a double along the first
base line. Mohler reaching third, but

Charlie Irwin was hit on the elbow
by the first ball which Carnes pitched
to him and Mohler walked home. Pinky
Williams drove a red-hot liner at Del

a Iooney heave to the plate which Ho-
gan had TO jump for, Moriarity scoring.

SIX SENATORS IMMUNE.
Not Eligible to the Presidency on Ac-
count of Birthplace.


There are six United States senators who
are not eligible to the presidency because
of having been born abroad, and they are
free from the buzzing of ambitious bees,
having reached the highest elective Office to
which they are eligible under the prohibit
ton of the constitution. Senator Gallinger,
chairman of the committee on the District
of Columbia, was born in Canada, but went
to New Hampshire at so early an age that
his friends would long ago have forgotten
that he was not born there were the fact
of his birthplace not occasionally brought
forward in such records as the Congress
sional Directory.
Senator Nelson, the scholarly member of
the Senate from Minnesota, was born in
Norway, which is the birthplace of SO many
of his constituents.
Senator Wetmore of Rhode Island claims
England as his birthplace. Senator Willard
of Nebraska first saw the light of day in
Canada. Senator Sutherland of Utah. who
lis warm supporter of Senator Smoot, the
Mormon senator, although he himself Is
not Mormon, was born in England, and
Senator Patterson, the editor of the Denver
at almost any time, is proud of Ireland as
his native land.
Very many senators were not born in the
states they now represent. Throughout the
western states there are many instances in
which men of the east and of the south
went west, and then, taking an interest in
politics, found themselves in commanding
positions that permitted them to move to
this city as United States senators.

CAPT McVEY'S LETTER
TELLS HIS STORY OF SINKING
OF THE LARCHMoNT.

PROVIDENCE, R. l., February 16.-The
Eletter of explanation written by Capt Nc
Vey of the ill-starred Steamship Larch-
mont to Messrs. Whitney and Stewart,
United States local inspectors of steam
vessels at New London, Conn, is an in
teresting document, in view of the charges
that have been made against the COM
mander and crew of the vessel. In it
Capt. McVey details the leaving of his
vessel in Providence with a full crew,
of her course, and of his going below to
see that passengers and freight were prop
erly cared for He said all lights were
burning brightly when he returned to his
room, about 1915. The night was clear,
but dark.
The captain then goes on to state that
shortly after reaching his room he heard
the alarm whistle, and rushing to the pilot
house, found the wheel hard down, which,
he said, proved that the pilot was attempt
ing to avoid a schooner which then was
very close to the steamer and appeared
to be heading directly into the Larchmont.
Almost instantly afterward the schooner,
which Capt. McVey subsequently learned
was the Harry Knowlton, struck the Larch-
mont. The captain says that he rang the
bell to have the engineer report to HIM the
condition of affairs below, because he real
lied the blow inflicted by the schooner
was severe one. There was no response,
termaster to get the desired information.
Every One in a Panic.
At this time, Capt. McVey says, the boat
became enveoped in steam and everybody
seemed panic-stricken except the crew. He
left the pilot house and ordered every one
to his station, as he realized from the list
of the Larchmont that she must be sink
ing. Presently this fact was reported him
by the men he had sent below. He thinks
that he was also told tnat the chief engi-
neer wanted him to beach the boat at once.
He went to the pilot house and rang the
necessary bells to start the engines, but
there was no answer, and he returned to
the deck to superintend clearing away a
boat
The Larchmont's freight deck, he thinks,
was by this time under water, which
brought his boat quite near the surface.
There were no passengers near his boat,
and knowing. he says, that the only way
to save lives in the proper manner was to
lower his boats, and to go around to the
other side of the Larchmont, he had his boat
says, were the only ones on his side Of
the vessel, unless there were some out of
view behind paddle box.
Couldn't Make a Rescue.
Those in his boat besides himself were
Purser Young, Quartermaster Staples two
walters and two seamen. They rowed
round the bow of the sinking vessel to get
on her port side to be in a position to
save lives, but the wind and sea were SO
very heavy that when they arrived on that
side it was impossible to accomplish any
thing. He kept the boat on that side until
the Larchmont sank.
So far as his personal knowledge goes,
his boat was the last to leave the Larch-
mont. He used every endeavor to pick
up any persons, but failed to find any to
rescue. He thinks that the Larchmont
sank about twelve minutes after the col
lision.

COLD WATER ON AGE PENSIONS

Special Cablegram to The Star
LONDON, February 16.-Curiosity has not
yet been satisfied regarding what measures
the government proposes to adopt for get
ting rid of the obstructive powers Of the
house of lords. Sir Henry Campbell-Ban-
nerman's speech on the subject at the
opening of parliament was entirely vague,
asserting merely that the opposition to the
will of the people interposed by the house
of lords must be overcome by necessary
constitutional changes.
The premier meant by the. will of the
people, the will of the liberal majority in
the house of commons. The supporters of
the house of lords are quite ready to join
issue with him on this point. They reply
that the lords are always willing to give
way in any matter on which the will of the
people has been clearly demonstrated. They
argue that it is the house of lords preroga
tive, as well as that of the house of COM
mons. to interpret the popular. will. They
instance the passage of the trades disputes
bill by the lords, entirely against their
judgment, because they believed the coun-
try favored it. Moreover, they are willing
to test the question at any time.
1t is suggested in behalf of the present
system that in case of deadlock of the
two houses the house of lords should be
required to pass disputed bill with an
amendment reading: This act will not
take effect until approved by majority
g., n ,op,,lor referendum 10 tho
Swiss system where all disputed bills in
the legislature are referred to popular
vote The liberal party, however, is ut
terly opposed to this solution.
Plans for Radical Reform.
Several interesting plans for reform of the
upper house have been advanced this week.
Goodwin Smith advocates somewhat en-
larged privy council in place of hereditary
legislators. The Spectator offers a some
what elaborate scheme whereby only such
hereditary peers as have held high Of
fees in the army or navy, the administra-
tive or the Judiciary, should be entitled to
seats.
The remaining hereditary peers should
choose one-fourth Of their number to rep
resent them. The crown should also be en-
titled to create life peers. Such house
would number roughly 200. It is suggested
that in case of deadlock the two houses
could then vote on disputed measure in
one body. Lord Newton will introduce a
bill to this effect in a few days
It is obvious that there are many loop.
holes for partisan abuse in this measure.
The temptation will be great for the retir-
ing party to create many life peers and ap-
point temporarily to qualifying high offices
hereditary peers of their own complexion.
IN order to retain power in the upper house.
Taken all In ALL British domestic politics
present more phases of dramatic interest
at present than at any moment since the
defeat of Mr.. GIadstone's home-rule bill.
The suffragettes' riotous performance this
week has not raised them above the cate
CORY of an aggravating nuisance as polit-
ical factor, in the estimation Of most mem
bers OF parliament. Oneraspect Of the ques-
ton was expressed by Claude Hay. who pro-

houses of parliament being guarded like a
fortress, and declared that the police pre-
cautions exhibited the men within the build
ing as towards, who were afraid OF women.
On the other hand, the public does not take
the matter very seriously, and the martyr
dom which fifty of Wednesdays rioters are
now suffering arouses little public emotion
beyond amusement. 1t is very genuine
martyrdom, however, for week or fort
night in London Jail is no joke.
Frost for Age Pensions.
One of the prediction proposals of the
party now in power was in favor of old-age
pensions, which would cost the country
about s125, OOO, 600 annually. but when the
subject arose in parliament on Wednesday
it met only evasions from the government
benches. The ministers are verbally sympa-
thetic Mr.. Asquith declared that man
he cherished the project in his innermost
heart, but as chancellor of the eXchequor
he did not know where he would find the
money. Possibly he wished to make the
problem as hard as possible in order to get
it out of the way, as he disclaimed the idea
either of imposing conditions or exacting
contributions.
John Burns was equally ELUSIVE in his
human capacity, but as minister he was
disposed to pour on the philanthropic prof.
ect the cold water of a departmental COM
mittee Socialists who are not in office are
indignant at these ministerial evasions. The
general impression Is that nothing will be
done this year.
