SINCLAIR'S BOOK WAS
PUT ADER THE BAN

New York.-Word comes from Der.
lin that the authorities there have
prohibited the sale OF Upton Sinclair's
book, entitled The Industrial Repub.

suance of the law concerning insults
to the German Emperor.
In his book the author describes the
Kaiser as "a degenerate who pro-
claims himself by grace of God the
lord and master of the German peo-
pie" He then passes on to the hide

ed by the states against the railroad
interests. At a general meeting Of Of
ficials here this feeling was manifest
by the tenor of the recommendations
submitted by a special committee re-
Gently appointed by the Western Pas
senger Association. Several of the
recommendations, if adopted, viii
greatly add to the convenience of the
travelling public.
Probably the most important of the
recommendations is that which pro-
vides for an interchangeable excess
baggage book to be placed on sale in
all western territory, which is be-
tween Chicago and the Missouri river,
an interchangeable 2000-mile mileage
book at a flat rate of cents a mile.
1t is also recommended to put on sale
a 1000-mile mileage book at a flat
rate of $40, the book to be an individ-
ual system book and not good off the
lines of the road issuing it. The COM
mittee further recommends the with
drawal from sale of all credential
forms of tickets which have become
unstable because sold at higher than
the legal rate in the various states.

HARVESTER TRUST
NEXT ON DOCKET

Chicago. Ill.-It is expected that the
proceedings against the International
Harvester Company, charged with be
Ing monopoly in restraint of trade,
will be instituted by the government
some time next week The suit prob
ably will be led in this city. as the
headquarters Of the trust are here.
The Harvester trust makes the bulk
OF the agricultural machinery of the
country. practically all of the har-
vestOrs. II has factories in different
parts Of the country, having organized
them under one company. The trust,
however, fixes the price on the output
OF every factory. and. it is charged.
pursues the same tactics that are
charged against the Standard Oil
-undersold Independent manufacture
ers and forced them out of business.
1t is also charged that in addition to
absolutely choking of competition
the trust sells its products in foreign
countries, after paying steamship
charges. at lower prices than in the
United States.
The legal machinery of the De-
partment of Justice has been at work
for months collecting information
against the trust, and the information
has been put in such shape and Sc
cured in such quantity as to warrant
proceedings at an early date. The
government in its suit will attempt
to prove that the international Har-
yester Company controls at least
seventy per cent of the output of
reapers. mowers and other agricultu-
raj implements in the United States
and that It is violating the Sherman
antitrust law.

BRIEF RESPITE IS
ACCORDED NELSON
Cans Will Give Him Until
Today to Sign the
Papers.

Lightweight Champion Joe Cans de-
clared last night that he would give
Battling Nelson until 8 o'clock this
afternoon to sign articles for another
fight for the title. In the event of
the Dane falling to meet the terms
named by the champion-133 rihgside
stripped-he will then talk business
with Harry Lewis or the latter's man
ager and hacker, who are in the city
for the express purpose of closing a
match for the Philadelphia boy, Cans
and Lewis have been offered $4,000
to meet at Tonopah. New, on July 4.
1t is no certainty, however, that Cans
and Lewis Will agree on the weight
question. The colored warrior has
stated repeatedly since his battle with
Nelson that he would not give away
a pound to any one seeking his title
and that they would all have to weigh
in at the lightweight limft-133 ring
side. But Lewis is big fellow, and
according to his manager, Z. W. Dick
erson, and hacker, H. w. Melenbacher
the best Harry viii agree to scale is

VICTORY COSTS
Them DEAR
White Sox Work Hard to
Win Game From
Terre Haute.
BEST GAME OF THE TRIP
Uproarious Crowd Greets Players and
Continue Frantic Yelling
Throughout the Event.

Terre Haute, Ind. April st took
ten innings Of wire pulling. during
which the Chicago White Sox used ali
the baseball they knew before they
could claim the victory over the little
Terre Haute team Of the Central
league today. Jones and his men were
put to such a test as they have not
experienced in a long time but final
~ made good and COPIED the victory
by a score of to 8. The Hottentots
chased over three runs in the third
inning by some timely as well as lucky
hitting, and while they never had
chance to score again it took all the
strength Of the worlds champions to
overcome that lead and save them
selves from disgrace.
1t was by far the best game of the
trip and the way the fans turned out
and rooted was mig surprise
It seemed that they came from
everywhere and they packed the
big grandstand and bleachers and then
hung on the top of the fences. They
yelled frantically all the time and it
was an unroarious afternoon from the
start to the finish of the game.
Umpire Gets Frantic.
The umpire Mr.. Mckenzie, became
frantic in the fifth inning over some
thing Eddie Hahn had remarked and
Eddie was ordered out of the game.
Manager Jones had to explain to the
official that the game was purely eX-
ADDITIONAL and not to decide the cham
pionship Of the world, but for a time
he was so irritated that he refused to
go back to work. He finally was leased
into finishing the job and there was no
more trouble.
Nick Altrock pitched eight of the in
.nings and Frank owen two. Neither
was hit hard, but Nick. was unfor-
tunate in having three whacks and an
error happen in the same inning and
the Tots" took the lead, scoring three
times. They never had a chance to
count again on Nick, but they were so
foxy in their fielding that time after
time they cut off the big fellows when
1t seemed almost a miracle.
Finally in the seventh the Sox be-
came desperate and by some grand
work on the bases, done in regular
major league style, they succeeded in
/ putting over one more run. They had
already batted in one in the third in
ming and then in the ninth another
combined effort. where they all pulled
together, let in another run, tying the
count.
| In the tenth Donohue banged out a
single and stole second and Robe drove
him home with a double and the game
was won, for the little fellows went
down once more in their final attempt

MANY PLAYERS OUT.

Atlanta, Ga, April 4.-When sixty
seven ball players in uniform were on
the diamond yesterday morning. Pied
mont park. in Atlanta. presented one
of the most interesting spectacles ever
witnessed on ball field. The en-
tire squads of athletes from the New
York, Cleveland. and Atlanta clubs
were training at the same time, and
the little Southern league park was
literally swarming with players. In
the grand stand sat a few more play
ers from the Brooklyn club. but most
of them arrived here too late to at
tend the unique practice at Piedmont.
1t was almost impossible to play a
game in the morning, so the players,
after a general handshaking, amused
themselves by running contests and
other boyish games. The main race
of the day was a 100 yard dash be-
tween Catcher Thomas and Trainer
Martin. They bet $40 side and Mar
tin was to have a handicap of one
second. Thomas beat him easily by
fifteen yards.

A SPORTING EDITORIAL.
[By the New York SUM-


Reports from the training camps in
dictate that the game Of muggsey is to
be played this year by the New York
National League baseball team with
unprecedented skill and enthusiasm. In
New Orleans the nine succeeded in en-
gaging in several most satisfactory
rows and gained the practically unani-
nous i'll will of the baseball COM
munity In the old fas hioned game
played with horsehide covered sphere
and willow bats the members of the
team have not displayed remarkable
proficiency, but in muggsey they have
surpassed all previous records
Thus rowdy ball makes progress. It
is possible, of course, that when the
season opens the Polo Ground heroes
may abandon their present methods
and devote themselves to straight,
hard, fair play. Perhaps they may
be ordered to do so, for the part of
the population that wants to see real
baseball is larger than that which en-
joys hearing and watching muggsey.

M'GRAW TO BE BARRED.

New Orleans, La. April 4.-There is
a movement on foot to bar McGraw and
the Giants from all Southern baseball
parks next spring. Charley Frank will
introduce this resolution at the annual
spring meeting of the Southern Base
ball association. 1t is said Birming
ham and Memphis favor the PROPOSE
ton. All leagues in Dixie will be
asked to cooperate with the Southern
and Pacific leagues and some K. I. T.
league towns will also be requested to
close their gates to McGraw. They want
to bar him from the south for train
ing altogether. There is no objection
to the Giants, but managers have no
use for McGraw.
