The Baseball Umpire.


That gentleman who is to umpire
the game today is an old friend OF
NINE" said the mild hammered base
ball fan to his neighbour, as they sat
leaning forward in the grandstand.
their eagerness over the coming con-
test enhanced by the stentorian COM
mand, "Play ball!"
He's one of the sQuarest and finest
of men. Yes, sir. he's as nice fel-
Say, watch the graceful attitude Of our
first batter! He's got his eye with him
today, too. for see how he let's this first
bad one go What did the umpire call
that?"
"A strike replied his neighbor.
Now, what do you think OF that?
Ball went a mile wide Of the plate!
Well. umpires will make mistakes. I've
Seen---"
At this juncture crack rent the air
and the ball sailed on line toward the
left field fence.
The mild hammered man was on his
feet in jiffy
"Oh. what a swat! Run, run, like
the dickens! Go on and make it a
homer! Look at that cuss go, will
you! Go on: keep a-going. Don't stop.
Make it-What's that?'
The umpire called 1t fOuf!"
A foul? He's crazy! Say. Mister
Umpire, put on your glasses. A foul!
Good Cad. man. you're the Nmiti

And in his disgust the mild hammered

TOBACCO COMPANY IS
DECLARED A TRUST
Court Says It Operates in Re-
straint of Trade and
Contrary to Law.

New York, Nov. 10---The govern
ment's contention that the American
Tobacco company is trust operating
in restraint OF trade and violation of
the Sherman antitrust law, was sus-
Judges Lacombe, Coke, Noyes and
here today. Judge Ward dissented.
The governments complaint against
the tobacco company includes the
names OF a large number of subsidiary
and allied companies, but not all these
are included in the decision. The suit
has been in progress many months and
great volumes of testimony have been
taken. In the course OF the examina-
ton 1t developed that the American
Tobacco company and its subsidiaries
practically controlled the trade world.
This control. 30 far as foreign mar
kets are concerned. was shown to have
been of comparatively recent origin,
however, and came about through the
formation of working agreement
with Great Britain corporation which
previously hai controlled the produc-
tion and consumption IN Europe and
Asia The company Is capitalized at
$180,000.00O. Its president Is James B.
Duke. but Thomas f. Ryan, banker
capitalist. has been regarded as the
dominant force IN the great corpora
ton.
Although the Judges held that the
tobacco company is operated in vio-
laton of the Sherman antitrust law
and In restraint OF trade. they found
the governments request for the APP
pointlnent OF a receiver impractical and
wholly unnecessary, and decided that
the application for an injunction
against the various subsidiary compa-
MEG should be suspended until after the
decision or appeal from the present
Indictment

LEAD
over BRYANITES
PROBABLY 10000.
State Ticket Falls Behind Pres.
idential Electors in Most
of the Counties.

Des Mones, Ia, Nov. 9.--William II.
Taft defeated Bryan In Iowa by a total
vote of 23S,454 to l73.423, or plurality
of 65,O31
u. Il. Carroll defeated Fred White
for governor by a vote OF 2lT,772 to
163,S48, or q plurality of 1924
These figures, based on semi official
returns from SO counties of the 80 in
the state and gathered from the coun-
ty auditors furnish the first actual to-
tai vote published in Iowa. All pre-
been based merely on estimates of the
VOTE but the tables published herewith
give the exact vote In each of the coun-
ties listed. 1t was impossible to secure
the III missing counties last night, be-
cause the county auditors had not re-
ceived the complete returns from the
precincts in these counties. In some
cases the complete vote will not be
available until the official canvass OF
the returns next week.
Piuralities May Grow.
While there are IL counties missing
they will not change the net result ex-
cept to increase somewhat the lead OF
both Taft and Carroll over their oppon-
ents. They may add 5000 to the plural
tiles of each bringing the final Taft
plurality to about $4,000 to 10000 and
tne Carroll plurality to something over
% 900.
The Carroll vote for governor was
about 10000 behind the vote for Taft,
while the Carroll plurality is about 12.
900 behind the Taft plurality There
was a steady falling off of the republi-
can vote between the national and
state tickets. 1t was not confined to
one section. but was general through
out tho state. This difference between
the state and national ticket is not
unnatural. however. when the stronger
interest in the national ticket is con-
sidered. Not only did Carroll run be-
hind Taft. but White also ran behind
Bryan. Whites loss, however, was not
80 heavy, for he fell behind about 49,
900 to Carroll's 10000.
Returns from SO counties Of the state
give Cummins total majority of ST.
$50; they give Lacey total majority
of 10,763. leaving Cummins net ma
jority for these SO counties of 42,124
The remaining 10 counties are largely
Lacey counties. but Lacey will not get
the Allison majority of last June. 1t is
not likely that the net Lacey majority
i'm these unreported counties will ex-
coed 1000. If they do not, then the
Cummins majority will remain at about
Al 600
