EASY FOR vULcANs.
Defeated Italian A. c. in Basket Ball, "a
to 4 Last Night.

The basket ball game at Hale's paw
lion last evening between the ltalan
athletic club tram and the Vulcans re-
suited in a decisive victory for the lat
ter team. the score at the end OF three
Is minute periods betting p TO =. Inc
game was anything but interesting ana
showed lack OF practise and team Work
on the part Of both teams.
Inability TO pass the ball with results
made the play depend upon individuals
and also resulted in the adoption OF foot
ball tactics on the part Of some OF the
PLAYERS. The Yuleans outplayed the
Italians from the start, although the lat
ter team seemed 10 play in hard luck
and throw after throw missed the bas-
ket by q narrow margin.
Fouls were plentiful on both sides and
the feature OF the Italians TO keep their
opponents covered resulted in most OF
the scores made by the Yulcans.
In the first period the Vulcans rolled
up toal OF 10 points, while the Italians
made only one, that from a free throw
by Nicora. In the second period the
Vueans passed more effectively than at
any other time during the game and
totaled nine points during the period,
while the Italians scored three, all by
Nicora on free throws from fouls. The
Italians held their opponents down to
a single basket in the final period, but
were unable to score themselves.

BASEBALL IS AN
ANCIENT GAME
Played By The Mound Builders, Says
Prof. Starr of The University
Of Chicago.

Chicago. Nov baseball is older
than Father Chadwick or Pop Arson.
for IL was played by the Mound Build
ers. That is the discovery Of Prof.
Frederick Starr OF the university Of
Chicago This professor, unlike most
professors, but like every Chicagoan. is
an ardent baseball fan so when it seem
cd that both the Cube and the White
Sox would win penants toward the
end of the season, and while the otaer
fans were yelling their heads of to
help Frank Chance or Fielder Jones, he
was busy studying some curious facts
about the Mound Builders.
The professor Is An expert on archae
ology. He is the manager Of that de.
Istrtment in the university. When he
found traces among the ruins Of the
Mound Builders Of instruments that
looked like balls and bats DE turned all
his baseball enthusiasm to the subject
He wandered over the ruins of Indiana
and southern Ohio till he had collected
large number OF these halls.
He found geometrically perfect
mounds which were very much like the
diamond AT West Side park II had
been supposed by other archaeologists
that these had been built as protection
against invaders, but the professor has
found thot they were really baseball
diamonds Of the Mound Builders.
Il find that the game as played by
the Mound Builders resembled our game
very much" said he to his class in arch
aeology. They used ball made of
stone or wood inclosed in skins, and
ii was batted with sticks. But while
we play the game with nine men they
had at least 100"
The professor doesn't know much
more about the game, for the records
of the Mound Builders were not com
plete. Although he is certain about the
name Of the league in those days, he
was inclined to think that Kid" Glea
son or Jim" Mcclure might know.

RULING OIL
PRODUCERS
How They Were Controlled
by Standard
THE INDEPENDENTS TESTIFY
Take What They Can Get from the Com
pany--Gaincd the Aseendancy by
Storing UP Great
Supply.
THE INDEPENDENTS TESTIFY

New York, Nov. Toll producers In
the Western fields were witnesses yes
terday in the governments suit against
the Standard Oil company of New Jer.
sey before Special Examiner Franklin
ferris in the custom house this city.
They told the story how the Standard
came into Ohio and Indiana oil fields
many years ago, when crude oil was
selling for fifteen cents barrel, bought
up millions of gallons, stored 1t, and
waited for the price to 90 up. II went
up slowly, and now that same kind of
crude oil is selling as high as S1.04 a
barrel there. The producers told, too
Of the way in which they disposed of
the product, practically all of which
finds its way into the Standards pipe
lines or storage houses. They get for
for their oil Just what the Standard
chooses to pay.
II came out yesterday at the hear
ing that all the STANDARD prices of oil
which prevail throughout the country
are fixed by the Joseph Seep agency,
Standard Oil company concern at Oil
City, Pa. with a representati in New
York. The oil producers have never
been in a position to dictate what they
would charge for the oil from their
wells, it was testified. They must
take what they can get irons the Stan
dard. The producers had been called as
witnesses for the STANDARD Oil COM
pany. They were attacked with vigor
under cross examination by Frank b.
kellogg. the governments lawyer, who
returned yesterday from the West. III.
l.. Case was the first called to testify
He operated some years ago under the
name of the Exchange Oil company,
sunk many wells. and handled many
hundred thousand gallons of crude oil.
His business was in the North Lima
field in Ohio The Standard Oil com
pany began to refine oil at Lima eight
years ago. Then the price began to go
up, said Mr. Case.
In 1900 and 1902 there was a big
surplus of oil, much more than could
be used in the Ohio field. 1t was then
that the Standard began to store all
the oil it could buy. In spite of the
oyerproduction the price of crude oil
advanced. The Buckeye Pipe line,
Standard concern, pipes practically all
the oil in the Lima field. The govern.
ment sought to show that this pipe
line, which, among Others, is supposed
to be common carrier doing interstate
business. has refused all along to ac-
eept any other than Standard oil. MIR.
Case said that the Buckeye Pipe line
had never, to mis- knowledge, refused to
handle any other oil than that of the
Standard Oil company. He used to sell
solna If his nil N the Manhaffan Tlilv
which at one time was sup
posedly independent, but come out re-
,ently as Standard Oil subsidiary.
