POLICE GET BUSY.

New York. June 15.-Although bet
ing was as effectually suppressed at
Gravesend today as it was last Satur-
day, a big squad of police easily break
ing up most attempts to make wagers,
a glead of hope has appeared for the
bookmakers. This is the admission by
Assistant District Attorney Elder that
the chief danger in making a bet lies in
the "cashing in"
He said that if the English credit
system" was adopted arrests would be
made, but that. to get a clear case. it
would be necessary to show at least
a verbal contract as regards laying of
certain odds and of payment in case a
horse won.
He said that officials and prosecution
departments would undoubtedly start
breaking up any system of payment.
but that it might be necessary to prove
the contamination of some sort of con-
tract made by persons charged with
violating the law.

GARY TEAMS JUNKET.

The Gary baseball club have now
completed their schedule for their tour
through Iowa, Wisconsin and Illinois,
and will leave Gary for Chicago, Friday
night. The team will be materially
strengthened by the addition of two
new pitchers, Erwin, the crack Lowell
ex-leaguer, and Dobbins, who has done
most of the pitching this year for Wa
bash college. There will be other i'm

the team Gary will put in the field

Victory No. II fell into the white sox
bag yesterday. 2 to 1. The twelfth
game boosted the Comiskey gang up to
the sublime heights of the 500 mark
in the percentage column. 1t has been
many a day since an American league
team could show as fat an average as
that.
doc" White and Pat Dougherty were
mainly responsible in grabbing off the
game, which. made 1t an even dozen
The doc" pitched rings onto the score
board for New York with great reg
ularity after the first round, and it was
his sound base hit that started a rally
in the fifth round which, supplemented
by Dougherty's screeching three-bagger
and Pats steal of home, won the game.
White had it over Chesbro far more
than a to 1 score would indicate. The
dental surgeon was so good that only
four of the New Yorks reached first.
Three of them hit the ball and Willie

SPORTING BRIEFS.

This season the National league will

tinue to hold the Chicago Cubs and not
allow them to run away.
Both the National and American
league teams of Philadelphia are go
ing along at an even pace. Both are
we'll balanced outfits and doubtless will
make a good fight for top honors.
Larry Lajoie's Iarrupers are playing
to big business this season. The show
has been greatly strengthened by the
addition of Charles Hickman as gen
cally carved legs
Once more the uncertainty of base
ball. Before the present season opened
very few fans could see anything IN
Cincinnati. Even the Redville scribes
were a bit hazy. But just take a peep
at Jonathan Camel and his getters
now.
Bugs" Raymond of the St. Louis
Nationals says that Catcher Ludwig,
also of the Cardinals, will become the
greatest backstop in baseball. Bugs"
declares that Ludwig is the only catch
er who has a sure clutch on the spit
ball.
Did you hear about the RocH ester
team breaking loose, running up to the
roof and giving the big fellows of the
Eastern league a hard tussle. We al
ways thought Buckenberger would do
something like that
"Rube" Waddell has been practicing

The prediction that the financial
stringency and the bad weather this
spring would combine to cause some
of the minor leagues to give up the
ghost has been fulfilled by the coll
lapse of the Gulf Coast league, the
Union league and the Atlantic associa-
ton thus early in the season OF these,
the Gulf Coast organization was the
only one of any real consequence in
the baseball world.

Oak Park Couple Surprise
Their Friends by Secret
Wedding,

Announcements telling of the mar
riage of Miss Alice Marguerite Har-
vey and Samuel Draper Dunlop at
Crown Point. Ind, May %, astonished
the friends of the young couple in Oak
Park yesterday. The brides father,
Will Riley Harvey, of Oak Park, mailed
the cards after having told few days
before of his daughters engagement,
shee at that time being bride, but he
did not know 1t.
It was all the fault of the engage
ment announcement that their secret
became known. Mr.. Dunlop left last
month fog a ranch near Phoenix, Ariz.
He and his bride were friends in their
school days. Before he left they agreed
to the secret wedding.
IF you are engaged it should be an
nounced,' declared Mr.. Harvey So he
took it upon himself to tell the society
reporters.
Now you will have to tell papa"
said Mrs. Dunlop. the young bride.
whose husband had departed for his
ranch, expecting to return in the fall,
when she conf1ded in her older sister.
So the sister told the father while
young Mrs. Dunlop made it convenient
to call on friend. Mr.. Harvey agreed
to forgive the young couple and his
announcement cards were the evidence
that he had done so.
The bridegroom will soon return to
claim his wife, who is happy because.
she says, she has escaped all the
bother and trouble" that usually at
tend a wedding ceremony.

The republican national convention is
on. When the doors of the Coliseum
swung open at 10 a. m. and half an
hour later the band began to play ma
tfonal airs, tho crowd that thronged
the auditorium realized that one of the
most interesting political fights of re-
cent years was nearing it's climax.
Taft and Fairbanksw
That was the slogan that was heard
most often and loudest as the delegates
took their seats, and Chairman Harry
S. New of the republican national com
mittee prepared to call the convention
to order at noon.
There were cries from the allies"
for favorite sons and common shout
for Roosevelt, a Third Termer," in
answer to the slogan of the steam
roller operatives.
In the main, however, it was con-
coded that the ticket, Taft and Fair
banks" was the one best bet of the
hour.
But the allies" were still counted
dangerous" enough to cause the Taft
leaders to take precautions against
any surprises.
Talk of Landslide.
slide for Roosevelt, but it is significant
that it originates in almost every case
with anti Roosevelt men.
Those who are really loyal to the
president know that he looks with hor-
ror upon every vote that may be cast
for him in the Chicago convention, be-
cause he considers it in the light of an
insult. He has openly declared and
privately written that mo friend of
his will use his name in the balloting,
and this fact is 50 generally under
stood among the delegates it ought to
put an end once and for all to any
idle talk Of a third term landslide.
VIII Spring Roosevelt Later.
Senator Lodge or some other warm
personal friend will surely have In his
possession, ready to be brought out at
the psychological moment, a ringing
letter from Theodore Roosevelt de-
nouncing the third term movement as
the work of his enemies, who wish to
injure his reputation in the future and
cast discredit upon his public declara-
tions.
From q Lake County Standpoint.
Henry Bicknell: "In my opinion
Uncle Joe Cannon is the biggest man
in the eyes of the convention today.
He has shown more horse sense than
all of the rest Of them put together.
He does not believe in class legisla-
ton and consequently he does not favor
| the anti-injunction platform"
About the time Uncle Henry had
reached his greatest heights of inter-
ocean pro-Cannon oratory, some one
| said that Uncle Joe would not have q
look-in. Thereafter for several hours
the atmosphere in Bicknelrs drug store
was blue.

County Chairman f. Richard Schaaf
went to Chicago last night to make
arrangements with other of the party
leaders in the tenth district for dis
trict headquarters. The plan has not
yet been positively decided upon, but
it is hoped that room can be secured
where the political longheads from this
state can meet each other.
John F. Sawyer, w. c. Harrison and
owen Crumpacker were among those
from Hammond who made the rounds
of the various state headquarters in
the Auditorium Annex last night.
Chairman Hickey of the tenth district
was seen mingling in the crowds in
Chicago yesterday. He was asked:

affecting district politics" and his only
answer was, Ssh"
A bunch of Crown Point men have

can trade off and all get a peep in the
