CLINTON PLEASED
Likes ThreeEye LEAGUE and
Will Make Showing Equal
to the Average
SAYS PRESIDENT PIP. CRAFTS
Cordial Relations With Rock Island
Good for the Sport-To Re.
build the Ball Park.

In a pleasant chat with an Argus
representative yesterday afternoon
President p. 2. Crafts of the Clinton
baseball club referred to the cordial .e-
lations that exist between that CITY AMI
Rock Island in baseball and otherwise.
The rivalry between the two
towns" said Mr.. Crafts, is Of the
hcalthful kind that is good for base
ball. There is none of that bitterness
that used to prevail between Davsr-
port and Rock Island. In Clinton ONLY
the best and most neighborly spirit
prevails toward Rock Island and undo!
such circumstances the games be-
tween the two teams are bound to con.
tnue to draw well, as they have dore
so far this season.
Clinton is more than satisfied with
the attendance at home and there is
no question that we will show a figure
equal to the Three Eye average, wei
over the 10000 mark, at the end Gi
the year. While the team met with a
long series of defeats the supporters
have remained true and there has beeh
no severe knocking. To Justify the
confidence shown by the public the
management will spare no effort or ex
pcnsc to provide first class
team. Two new OutficldCrs have been
bought from the Iowa league and the
whole outficld changed with a view al
getting hittcrs. Improvements are
possible also i'll the inticId unless F..
better showing is made BY another
year at the outside. we will have an
aggregation that the remainder of the
league had better look out for.

SLURS HOTELS HERE;
NOT UP ON THE RULES
Threc-Eye League Officers and Presi
dent Miller of Bloomington
Are ForgetfuI.

President Miller of the Bloomington
baseball association writes President
Spencer of the Rock Island association
casting a sIur on Rock Island hotels
and stating that so long as he has any
thing to say about it the Bloomington
team shall continue to stop i'll DaVen-
port while playing here. The letter
was received today. In Il telephone
conversation with Secretary Miller of
the Three-Eye league. President Sped
Ger was told there was no rule rcqui:-
ing teams to put up in the cities ia
which they are playing. This Shows
that President Miller seeks to upheld
an attitude on the part or the employees
of the league, the ball players i"
violation of the will of the league. ami
It also shows that Secretary Miller is
not posted OH the records.
If Secretary Miller will take the
trouble to look the matter up he will
find that at Il meeting two or three
years ago a resolution was introduced
by NJ. II. Sexton, then president of the
Rock Island association. seconded By
James T. Hayes of Davenport auI
passed unanimously, requiring teams
to board in the city where they play.
This was not printed with the cunSti-
| tuition, for it is not Il part of the con-
stitutiOn, but it has never been ,e-
scinded and is still in effect
President Miller of the Bloom

Boise, Idaho, July 19.-In the Hay
wood trial today James MCFARLAND
the detective whose name has been
mentioned so frequently in con1ec
ton with securing evidence against
the Western Federation of Miners
was il the court room for the first
time since the trial started. He came
to listen, to the arguments in the
case and attracted considerable atten-
ton. Judge Wood announced at ten
O'Clock that ne would not be ready
to rule on the matter of excluding
certain evidence from consideration
of the jury and to hear arguments of
counsel until 2 p. m. He instructed
James H. Hawley, leading counsel for
the state, to be ready to proceed at
that time. Hawley is not expected to
conclude until tomorrow afternoon.
The opening address for the defense
will be made by Attorney E. F. Rich
ardson on Monday morning To pre-
serve the record, Richardson again
today moved that the jury be instruc-
ted to return verdict of not guilty,
on the ground that the defendant,
Haywood, mad not been connected by
the evidence with the crime alleged.
The motion was formally made and
formally denied.
Judge Wood announced his decision
withdrawing from the jury the evil
dence bearing on the deportation of
miners and employment of detectives
in Colorado, and admitting the evi-
dence as to the Vindicator mine and
Independence depot explosives.
Louisiana Mob Disperses.
New Orleans, La, July 19.-With
the peaceful dispersal early today of
a mob of 300 men that had formed at
Gretna, La, to lynch the Italians con-
victed last night of kidnapping and
killing the Lamana child, the acute
crisis is believed to have been pass
ed Governor Blanchard's prompt ac-
ton in ordering out two companies
of militia within two hours after the
verdict of guilty was announced is
believed to have saved the Italians
lives. Nearly a hundred soldiers were
quartered in the Jail all night at
Hahnville. and it may be necessary
to keep the soldiers there until the
Italians are removed to a safer place.
The prisoners must first be seltenc-
ed This probably will occur Monday,
when the life sentence will be pass
ed. Under the laws of this state this
means fifteen years with time off for
good behavior.

PLANS FOR WELCOMING
GOVERNOR CURRY

At a mass meeting held last night
in the city council chamber, it was
decided to welcome Governor Curry
by an informal reception at the Club
rooms next week, and later to hold
a more elaborate reception upon his
return from Washington.
Mayor Stockard acted as chairman
of. the meeting, and the telegram re-
ceived Wednesday evening by Mr.. Ca
hoon from Captain Curry was read.
1t was stated that a reply to this tel
egram had been sent by letter to Ell
Paso, which place Capt. Curry would
probably reach about six O'Clock Sat
urday evening. The advantage of COM
ing on to Roswell by way of the auto
mobile line was explained to him in
the letter.
Mr.. Robinson remarked that the
brief notice of Captain Curry's COM
ing had knocked all plans for his re-
ception galley west" and suggested
that instead of attempting a barbecue
or any other kind of big doings" at
this time. it would be better to infor
mally welcome the new governor, and
arrange if possible to pull off the
main show in August while the Ter
ritorial Bar Association, Secretary of
Interior Garfield and the Pecos Val
ley Press Association are all in town,
thus making a four ring circus of it
with all necessary trimmings and max
ing one job of the whole. Judge Rich
ardson agreed with this idea. For the
proposed barbecue was too heavy an
undertaking. His suggestion was that
a committee of citizens meet the gov
ernor to be at Torrance and escort
him home, then hold an informal re-
ception at the club rooms. Mr.. Cur
rvs stay will be brief, and it was
generally agreed that not mucn could
be done further. The probability is
that he will stop here only to leave
his two boys, and then hasten to
Washington to confer with President
Roosevelt.
the Commercial Club. assured the
gathering that the club rooms would
be gladly turned over to the public
for holding a reception. He also agreed
that the plan of inviting Capt Curry
back later for 8 more elaborate cele-
bration was good one. There being
no objection to this plan it was de-
clared adopted.

DEFECTIVE ARRESTED
Humphries and Schoonover Both Plac
ed in Jail, the Latter Charged with
Completely in the Robbery.-Schoon-
over Released on $1,000 Bond.
Special to the Daily Record.

Special to the Daily Record.
Carlsbad, N. M, July 1S.-An unex-
pected turn was taken in the Schoon-
over robbery case yesterday afternoon
when NJ. NJ. Humphries, alias Kid
Rice, the alleged detective of Here
ford, Texas, who furnished the infor-
nation that led to the recovery of
$7939O of the $1,000 stolen money,
was placed in Jail.
Still another unexpected bomb was
thrown last night when Sol Scaoon-
over, the owner of the saloon, was
placed in Jail, charged with compile
ity in the robbery of his own place.
When Joe Matthews, the former
porter, a negro, confessed that the
money had been stolen from the sa-
lool by certain young man who left
here on the morning of July 16, and
that he (Mattnews) hao carried the
money to the bank of the river and
buried it, many thought that this was
the end of the case, and were of the
opinion that it exonerated Schoonover
the owner of the bar. From recent
and further developments it would
seem that this robbery is developing
into a case fit for a Sherlock Holmes
to unrave1. Sheriff w. P. Lucas, VINO
arrested Schoonover, refused to dis
cuss the case at the present time for
publication.
Schoolover was released from Jail
at about 1870 O'Clock this morning on
a 81 500 bond and preliminary hear
ing has been set for July 27.
The young man whom the negro
names as entering the saloon and TAX
ing the money from the safe has not
yet been located
Schoonover has employed Bujac &
Brice to defend him. r. T. NJ.
