shortening OF Second
Bail Season Is
Advocated

Two rounds instead of three are
advocated for the second series of
the Honolulu Baseball League, owing
to the fact that the men are tired
now. after months of steady playing,
and that the attendance does not now
justify any more playing apparently.
Even IL some novelties are intro
duced, this will probably make as
long big league season as could be
made u go, and, counting in the
games of the triangle" series. lon
ger period of steady playing than the
people here are usually treated to.
Things will be materially changed
around in this second series. so
much so that It would be very hard
to make predictions at any time In
the near future. The two teams
which have so far shown up best
this year are not to be In the shape
they have hitherto been ut all. The
Puns and the Jewels have lost many
men and have been very materially
weakened. Meanwhile, the Saints
are very apprcciably strengthened,
and the Rams are also as strong as
might be expected at any time this
year. They are as good at least rs
they have been, and this IL saying
something. considering the weakness
of the leaders in the league.
A complication arises in regard Ia
two players who are claimed by tho
Saints. Johnnie and All Williams
will not play with the Saints. they
say. and Johnnie is rather anxious
to play with the Puns. lie is n very
valuable man, but Is now debarrod
from playing by the refusal of Glca.
son to release him.

From the above IL will be seen the

harder than ever, and hope to be
better supported by the home fans.
One of the plcasantest features of
the games was the sportsmanlike
and splendid playing of Hart and
Burns. Hart pitched one of the fin
est games ever seen In the Hawaiian
Islands, whore only one ball was
knocked out of the iniield Besides
that he was n strong hitter and fine
fielder. II Is pity sickness kept

Burns did even more remarkable
work, proving himself in n class by
himself both behind the bat and al

made n decided hit with the fans
by their fast, clever, and certain
playing.

States will meet at the same board and
address the same audience when William
II. Taft Republican, of Ohio and w. j.
Bryan (Democrat) of Nebraska are to
be the guests of honor at the annual

COTTON MILLS
USED 2,193, 900 BALES DURING
COTTON YEAR.
Consumption in Northern Mills De-
creased 22O,O 600 Bales-In-
crease in Spindles.

New Orleans.-In his annual report on
the cotton crop of 1907-0s, tonight, Sec
rotary Hester of the New Orleans cot.
ton exchange quotes some very interest.
ing figures in connection with the shift.
ing of the seat of the American cotton
milling industry to the States of the
cotton belt. He says that these condi-
lions have been more in evidence during
the season Just closed than ever before,
the consumption of American cotton in
the South, ever under the most u~nfavor-
able conditions, having been in round
figures 2,193,000, while the North to-
tailed but 100000 or 100000 bales less.
In the increase in the consumption OF
cotton, Virginia comes first, Oklahoma
second and Georgia third.
Mr.. Hester's report of the crops of the
different States is given as follows in
thousands of bales, showing a decrease
under 1906-07 of 1,939,016 and an in
crease of 225,97s over that of 19O5-o6:
Alabama, 1,171,ooo, against 1,2s9,ooo

Mr.. Hester puts the ~spindles in the

ENLIGHTENMENT Is CHARGED
New Orleans Official Alleged to Be
Short $4,000.

New Orleans-Vital Tujacque, chief
clerk in the city treasurer's office, was
arrested this afternoon on a bench war
rant from the criminal court, charging
him with embezzling $4,000 from the
city of New Orleans.
The mayor became suspicious a few
days ago that Tujacque's account were
not straight, and placed an expert ac-
countant on his books. Today the ac-
countant reported that he had so far
found a shortage of $4,000, and upon
receipt of the information the mayor
took immediate action.
New Orleans has suffered from an
epidemic of embellishments during the
past year. During that time over half
a million dollars of public funds have
been stolen by trusted officials. Tax
Collector Dudenhefer, of the third NUM-
cipal district, got away with over $780,
900, and this scandal was shortly fol-
lowed by Chief Clerk Letten, of Tax
Collector Fitzpatrick's office, embezzling
$4,000. Then the tax collector in the
Algiers district went wrong for several
thousand and the embellishments since
then have averaged about one a month,
bringing the total amount of public
funds stolen up to over half a million
dollars.

WRIGHT MAKES NEW RECORD
Has His Flying Machine Under
Perfect Control.

Washington, Sept. 10.-Orville Wright
today broke the worlds record for time
and distance for a heavier-than-air flying
machine, which he established yesterday
afternoon. In a flight requiring great
skill on account of a ten-mile wind, he
circled around the drill grounds at Fort
Myer IS times in 65 minutes and SO
seconds, exceeding the time of yester-
days record by 3 minutes and 81 Sec
onds.
At sos Mr.. Wright signalled c. E.
Taylor, his mechanic, to release the ma
chine. The ~aeroplane rose from the
ground almost Immediately after leav-
ing the single starting rail. 1t continued
to climb higher with each successive
round of the field until it reached an
altitude of rs feet.
For the first 80 rounds the machine
flew as smoothly as on its previous
flights, but from that time on it was
seen to pitch at the turns at the breeze
from the west struck it.
Whenever the machine pitched it
could be plainly seen from below that it
responded promptly to every move of
the levers by the operator.
