kilometer cycling, the tug of war and
 the five mile flat race Only two other events were decided The dis GUS throwing and the Greek style 'of fancy diving went to America and Germany respectfully, but America accomplished two things today of which its supporters are extremely proud. In the first place Martin J. Sheridan of the Irish American club, broke all previous records with the discus, at this style of throwing, making a distance of 12S feet and 8 inches, while NJ. F. Herr of the same club was second, also making a rec ord breaking throw of 122 feet 51A inches.
 Another accomplishment of which all the athletes are talking, was the success of J. l.. Eisele of the New York Athletic association. .in getting a place in the 3200 meter steeple chase America never had any idea of scoring in this event, particularly since Eisele had run three of the hardest races during the week. He is the only American who competed with the Englishmen in distance runs and in each race he had to fight against odds, being handicap ped on one occasion by having sev- erai Englishmen pitted against him. Further he suffered greatly with an injured foot Just little more stamina and a little more luck and Eisele would have captured some of the distance events for America. As it was he ran some splendid, plucky races.
 There were four of the United Kingdom team, Russell, Robertson Holloway and Sewall, were in the event. in addition to Eisele and Gal braith, the last named representing Canada. The Englishmen took turns trying to wear down the two others and succeeded in doing so with Gal braith. but Eisele held on despite a nasty fall in the first lap, but he managed to annex the third place well up.

THE MANCHUR|A
AWARD INCREASED

Associate Justice Ballou occupied a
place within the bar in Judge Dole s
court yesterday morning. He did not
appear as an attorney, but in capacity
such as might be analogous to that of
solicitor, in the English practice,
'instructing" the barrister in the
case, who on this occasion was b. l..
Marx.
The proceeding was in the matter of
the Manchuria ease, which Judge Dole
decided few days ago. Marx, as
proctor for the Pacific Cable Company,
the owner of the cableship Restorer, pre-
| sented a motion for an amendment of
the decision adding to the allowance
for cost of stores and furnishings con.
sumed in the heavy work of salving
the Manchuria, $4,000 for water and
$l473,75 for grapnel rope used.
Associate Justice Ballou, before Inc
went on the bench, tried the ease on
behalf of the Restorer, and was init
mately familiar with all the testimony
and matters concerned in the case. The
motion was presented by B. L. Marx,
who was his partner at the time. From
time to time while Mr.. Marx was pre-,
senting the motion and the argument in
support of it, Justice Ballou, who sat
beside him, made suggestions to him
c. II, Olson, representing the proc
tors for the Manehria, opposed the
motion.
Judge Dole granted the motion so far
as to amend the decision by adding tC
the allowance made, 1926 for water and
s294.75 for grapnel rope, making I
total allowance for provisions ant
stores consumed of $5,64Oes.
The court then adjourned to Monday
July 10.

An interesting parsonage among the
Korea passengers in the city yesterday
was the Honorable Jose Ruiz Luzu-
riaga, Philippine Commissioner and a
native Filipino, who is going to the
mainland with his son on his first visit
to the United States. He was in COM
pany with Commissioner w. Cameron
Forbes, who is going to the mainland
on six months leave of absence, and
who has been acting on the Commits
sion as Secretary of Commerce and Pc.
lice.
Commissioner Luzuriaga rendered sig.
nal service to the United States after
the Americans had lowered the Spanish
colors in the islands, exerting his infiu,
ence in the island of Negros to prevent
the Filipino there going out in active
hostility against the Americans. AS a
result the sugar industry on Negros, in
which the Commissioner is largely in.
terested, suffered no setback through
the destruction of the canefelds or the
burning and dismantling of the mills.

such market for all or part of their

For the betterment of the industry
an attempt will be made to secure the

While Commissioner Forbes is on a

MOB AFTER AN EMPIRE.
The Decisions of Sheridan Did Not
Suit the ST. Louis Fans.

ST Louis, Sept. 16.--Umpire Jack
Sheridan of the American Baseball
league was attacked by angry baseball
enthusiasts as he was leaving the
American league park here Tuesday
afternoon. One of the men struck
Sheridan, who protected himself as
best he could until the police dis
persed the crowd.
Sheridan was jeered and hooted by
a mob as he left the ball park. When
one of the mob struck Sheridan a
policeman rushed into the crowd and
arrested the ruffian. The. crowd then
pressed about the policeman and his
prisoner, and the officer drew his re-
volver, thus bluffing the crowd back.
Umpire Hurst, who was with Sheri-
dan, struck one of the mob in an
effort to protect his colleague. The
man who was arrested escaped.
The trouble was the result of i'll
feeling over a decision by Sheridan in
the game declaring Outfielder Nc
Intyre of the Detroit team safe with
what proved to be the winning run.

Dairymen Say City Can't Inspect Out
side Dairy Farms.

Thirty dafrymen representing Tope-

Tuesday afternoon at the Commercial
club rooms for the purpose of perfect
ing county organization and adopting
rules for their protection. The men
present at the meeting own or control
y something like 500 head of cows which
are held in the vicinity of Topeka
There is probability that the meet
ing will result in the price of milk be-
ing raised during the winter months
as the dairymen contend that the pres
ent price Is too low. Some days ago
the city council attempted to pass an
ordinance providing for the inspection
of all milk sold in the city as we'll as
the dairies from which it comes. The
proposed ordinance provided that the
inspection fee which was to have been
81 per head should be born by the

Nearly all of the milk from the

men sell their product directly to the

The members of the dairymen's asso-
citation assert that the city has no right
to attempt to inspect diaries which are
located outside of the limits of the

city limits. They also claim that the
inspection of country diaries belongs
to the state dairy inspector.
1t is claimed that the inspection zee
of 81 per head for cows kept for dairy
purposes is wrong as the test does not
include the more complicated work or
determining whether tuberculosis eX-
