Lafferty's nice work in the box for
the McCormicks was responsible for
the latter teams victory over the Pas
adena club at the Crown City yester-
day afternoon. The visitors scored
eight times while the Pasadena aggre-
cation was putting three runs over the
plate. The McCormicks drove out four
hits in the first round, but were un-
able to tally more than once because
of poor work on the bases. Another
run was added in the third, while Pas
adena came back in this frame and
forged to the front by tallying three
times. The locals put the game on ice
in the sixth with five runs on four hits,
Lafferty again coming to the fore with
a home run over the left-field fence,
two men being on the sacks at the
time. The Macs added one more in the
final round, while the Pasadena aggre-
cation was unable to do anything to
Lafferty after the fourth "Shoes"
Pfirrman twirled the first six innings
for Pasadena, being succeeded by
Meyers in the seventh round. Meyers,
formerly of the Gardena team, pitched
nice ball, although a trifle wild. He
was given a good hand for his good
work in this period, striking out two
men after filing the bases with free
transportation to the Macs.

FORMALLY OPEN
INDOOR SHOOT
LOS ANGELES REVOLVER CLUB
TURNS OUT
NEW QUARTERS THRoNGED BY
TARGET CRACKS
Pistol and Revolver Practice viii Be
Undsturbed by Storms This
Winter-open House at
Hill Street Range

The indoor range of the Los Angeles
Revolver club, at 24615 South Hill
street, was formally opened last
Wednesday evening. The members
turned out en- masse at the opening
shoot, the trolley wires being kept hot
until a late hour. The attendance was
composed largely of the men members
of the club, who Joined the ranks to
shoot the pistol or revolver during the
evening hours or spare time during the
week days. Some good scores were
made during the evening, but the
marksmen were SO delighted with the
new range and equipment that they
forgot to turn their scores over to the
secretary for publication.
The range will be open to all the
members at any time during the day
or any evening during the week. The
regular practice night of the club will
be Wednesday evening, and on this
evening the twenty-yard medal and
team contests of the club will take
place. Many who are interested in
revolver or pistol shooting but who
could not get out to the fifty-yard
range on Sundays have joined the club.
These members will be able to prac-
tice at any time of the day or even
ing on the twenty-yard indoor range,
shooting by artificial light. At no time
during the winter will the club be de-
pr1Ved of shooting with pistol or re-
volver on account of stormy weather.
If the weather does not permit of
holding a practice or competition shoot
on the outdoor Bishop street range
the members will hold the shoot on
the indoor range, and during the long
winter evenings the marksmen will no
doubt get much enjoyment puncturing
the twenty-yard target with the hand
gun.
The practice shoots and competition
contests of the club which have been
held on the Bishop street police range
every Sunday will continue as for
merly.
The regular monthly medal contest
for the gold, silver and bronze med
ais was held on the Bishop street range
yesterday and were won by I. c. Doug
las, w. p. Smith and DR.. L. M. Pack
ard. Douglas and Smith were tied for
high place, but as Smith had the most
number of low shots the trophy was
awarded to Douglas.
A. B. Douglas put in an appearance
with a brand new 500 revolver, which
he won as a prize at the San Fran
cisco Golden Jubilee shooting festival.
Young Douglas did not take time to
try it out, as he confined himself to
the 20 pistol during the entire morn
ing.
Following are the scores made yes

Rannaae smashers Win

The Wells-Fargo players showed their
caliber yesterday when they annexed a
double-header from the speedy Cole
grove aggregation. The first game was
slaughter which reads 10 to 0, while
the second was a little better, the bag
gage smashers coming out on the long
end of a 8 to 1 score. Ike Pierce per-
formed a remarkable feat by pitching
both games, allowing but one hit in the
first and four in the second. The initial
contest was marked by many errors for
both teams, although the Colegrove
nine fumbled the sphere at critical
moments. Norgaard of the winners
was the batting sensation, getting two
hits out of five trips to the plate, one
a triple with the bases full. LAMAR
twenty putouts to his credit without an
error fuckers brilliant fielding in the
center garden was another feature of
the matinee go. The account in detail:

The Directory nine won a closely
contested and fairly well played game
at Vernon yesterday by defeating the
Parafines, to 4. The mines were
scheduled to play a double header, but
by previous agreement the game
counted two. Only seven innings were
played, as Manager Benkert of the

Swung out of their course by a strong tide off
the Statue of Liberty. heavy railroad float and
the sidewheel steamer Little Silver, of the Pat
ten Line, crashed together yesterday afternoon.
The, fifty passengers on the steamer, which was
bound for Atlantic Highlands, were shaken but
no one was injured, and all were transferred
safely TO the Mary Patten. of the same line
which continued the trip down the bay.
The float was lashed TO a tug and pro-
ceeded on it's course. while the Little Silver with
her upper bow torn away, was headed for the
fats off Ellis Island. where Captain Edwards
beached the boat until he could examine the
hull. which later was found to be intact Then
the steamer backed off the mud bank under
her own steam and started for the pier at West

MANY MILLIONS.
Franchise Tao Decision Viii Hasten
Thousands of Suits.

Albany, Oct. 19-Thousands . cases pending
all over the state for the collection of unpaid
special franchi; taxes. aggregating about S41,-
100000. including about S27,OOOOOO in New
York City. will be brought to a speedy determi-
nation as a result of a decision to-day by the
Court of Appeals. in which the court lays down
rules for the guidance of the State Board of Tax
Commissioners in assessing special franchise
tax valuations. The methods to be followed by
the st e board In these matters have been the
subject of litigation for years.
The decision was handed down in the case of
the Jamaica Water Supply Company against the
State Board of Tax Commissioners, in which two
important questions were raised. One was
whether assessments of special franchises OF
corporations. which included the tangible prop
erty Of the corporations in the streets and high
ways and the right to use these streets and
highways, were to be equalized with local as
sessments made by assessing officers in the same
locality. The second question was whether the
courts might properly set aside lie assessment
made by the state board If it did not correspond
to the result reached by the net earnings rule.
In an opinion by Judge Willard Bartlett the
court on the first point, holds that the Appel
late Division right in allowing the special
franchise to be equalized TO correspond with the
rate of assessment adopted by the local asses
sors in the same tax district. On the second
question it holds that no rule can be laid down
by the courts, although generally the net earn
ings rule will give a proper result. The court
then defines at length the method by which this
net earnings rule should be applied
The Importance OF the questions involved
SO great that number of the large corporations
intervened, and briefs filed on behalf of the
Consolidated Gas Company, the New York
Mutual Gas Light Company, the Metropolitan
Street Railway Company, the Third Avenue
Railroad Company. the New York Edison Com
pany and the Brooklyn Rapid Transit system.
The court sustains the contention OF the At
torney General that the proper rate of return to
be allowed in applying the ret earnings rule is
a question OF fact although in the absence OF
the proof the opinion holds that the court may
take judicial notice that 6 per cent is fair re-
turn.
Attorney General OMalley says he will re-
quest Governor Hughes TO appoint extraordinary
terms OF the Supreme Court in each judicial dis
tract of the state. in accordance with a law
passed by the last Legislature. for hearing these
actions, instead of trying them before referees.
1T should be possible" says a statement
issued by the Attorney Generals Office tonight,
for the state TO collect the back taxes for many
wears from these corporations. since the decision
answers virtually all the questions raised in
these numerous cases. and Attorney General
o'Malley promises 20 follow this decision with a
vigorous campaign for the settlement Of these

Sayviile. Long Island. Oct 10 (SpeciaD.-
Mystery still clothes the skeleton of the woman
found in the woods yesterday between Brent
wood and Islip. A hundred false clews have
been followed to their fruitless ends

that of Miss May Smith. at one time a nurse at
the state hospital at Islip. and reputed fancee
OF Gustave Schwartz, now a prisoner In the
Riverhead jail charged with the murder of
Irving j. Nelson. Later investigation set at
rest this rumor, owing to the discovery of
gold watch bearing the initials, "a L." This
watch is of foreign make and OF expensive de-
sign.
Coroner Savage and members of his staff were
much interested in the discovery by Charles
Daily, the Islip undertaken. of a soft nOsed
bullet imbedded in the ground near the skull
A closer examination of the skull disclosed a
hole in the lower jaw which might have been
made by a bullet of the same calbre. The
coroner is working this new clew.
