FAILING,
LONDON DECLARES
Critics Wonder If New York Will
Follow Their Lead a Sec
ond Time.

LONDON, May 15.-I.ondon critics are
treating Tetrazzini unkindly. They are
laughing at New York. too. America
had a chance to discover the prima don
ma before England did. She appeared
there first But Americans did not ap-
pTeciate until she arrived IN London and
the latter city had gone wild over her.
Then New York went wilder than
London did. Now she's IN London again.
and the critics are saying they guess
they were mistaken.
What they are wondering is, will the
New Workers revise their opinion a sec
ond time. on her return next fall be-
cause their Old World mentors have?
one London critic says the sOngsTess
never was anything but a craze. Others
profess TO believe her powers waning.
Her friends declare she only needs a
rest. If So. reply the critics, she has
no business to appear now.

their vaults. and section II is the La
Toilette amendment, intended to pre-
vent banks from investing any part Of
their funds in corporations iu which any
of the officers of the bank are inter-
ested. The committee decided that with
these amendments, the currency bin

And do you consider me nothing Of

KETCHELL FIGHTS TONIGHT.

San Francisco, Aug. 17-Stanley
ketchel will enter the ring a warm ia
vorite over Joe Thomas tomorrow
night. That bettors are not worried
by reports that he has strayed away
from the straight and narrow path in
the training line is evidenced by the
fact that he is 10 to in the wagering
here. favorite over Thomas.
In some fashion, reports have been
spread that Stanley has become over
confident since he defeated Hugo Kelly.
and that he has not worked as he
should have done But the fact re-
mains that he is supported heartily in
the small bets carded in the poolrooms.
In spite of his prohibitive price
Ketchel is likely to weigh at least
40 pounds when he steps in the ring
at the Coliseum. Billy Warren, his
sparring partner. is reported as not be-
Ing altogether satisfactory as a team
mate, as he has persisted in Covering
up" too much in their sparring work.
Ihomas may go in the ring weighing
10 pounds. He scaled that much at
San Rafael and was training to take

HEGEWISCH TEAM WINS.

Indiana Harbor, Aug. 1S.-(SpeciaD-
The game of ball Sunday, between the
Hegewisch Colts and the Indiana Har-
Dor Juniors, resulted in a victory for
the Colts by the score of to 6. Grover
Box pitched the first inning for the
Colts, but when the Juniors made four
runs off his delivery, Captain Klucker
took him out and sent shortstop Mat
son in to take his place. The change
proved good one, as Matson only al
lowed two more tallies during the re-
mainder of the game. The chief feature
of the game was the home run nv
Klucker with two men on bases.
The Hegewisch captain drove the
ball clear over the railroad tracks. max
ing the second time this feat has been
accomplished since the grounds We're
laid out
Mr.. Robert Alexander. who had
charge of the preliminary arrange
ments for the game entertained the

CUBS ACTUALLY WIN OUT.

Through no wish of its own, the
popularity of the Philadelphia team In
creased at least 100 per cent on the
west side yesterday. when the cubs
trounced the visitors to the tune of 8
to l. The crowd that came with hos
tility in its eye remained to applaud
Reulbachs work in allowing but two
hits
Applause was also largely due to the
benevolence of Pitcher Foxen, whose
contributions to Chicagos score In the
second and third innings caused many
in the stands to regard him as an
animated charitable institution.
The auburn haired wonder from New
Jersey had put up such a strong
front" on his last appearance here
that he doomed up in sinister style
when he faced the home team yester-
day. Then, gradually, he assumed the
form of a beatific vision to the loyal
cub rooters in the stands. His red
hair actually became an aureole
