BuSSe Wins Praise

Mayor Busse has been praised by the Cook County Re-
tail Liquor Dealers Association for closing two disrepu
table saloons on Wells street the river and refusing
to restore their licenses any terms.
There are probably thousand saloons in Chicago
which, from time to time, shelter and protect criminas
and afford them convenient places to plot their crimes
and ede their pursuers Mayor Busse has closed two OF
them.
Great is Busse

Testimony from Tennessee
There can no longer be any question in any mind
open conviction that closing the saloons results in
very marked improvement In the sobrety and order OF
city, says the Knoxville (Tennessee) Sentinel The
figures published in the Sentinel yesterday for the first
year under prohibition compared with the year previous
contributed to the evidence on the subject
The police arrests Of course do not indicate absolutely
the amount of drunkenness or misdemeanor and crime
1t is supposabe that the police do not arrest all who
guilty of offenses against the law. The srlctness with
which the laws enforced varies Nevertheless 1t
may be fairly assumed that the number of arrests in
city from year year about the most suggestive index
to be obtained as to the order of the community
During the year previous to the abolition OF the sa
and the year subsequent to that event the police OF
Knoxville have been under the chief and there is
little likelihood that the degree of srictness in enforcing
the laws varied to any great extent during the two
periods
It Is a Fair Comparison
So we believe the arrests in Knoxville furnish fair
criterion the extent of drunkenness and crime The
following figures are therefore, OF peculiar slgnlcance

Add to the above the fact that according to the rec
ords of the Criminal Court for Knox county, the number
of murders decreased from 38 to a. and the number OF
all felones decreased 81 per cent the change in condition
is more evident.
The felony cases showed decrease from BOB to 222
The misdemeanor cases showed decrease from 7O2
to 587.
A Remarkable Showing
This it must be granted is remarkable showing Tor
the prohibition law 1t ought to lead to cessation OF
the oftrepeated claims that prohibition is failure

The figures above ought to indicate to all the people
of Knoxville that they have acted with wisdom in pre-
venting the open sale of liquors in saloons They have
taken forward STEP The drink problem is not solved
as yet, but we have advanced toward a solution.

False Prophecies Fail
We have been accused by people OF less fortunate
cities Of being narrow and foolish. The ruin OF Knox
vile was foretold And It predicted that we would
have much drinking drunkenness and crime as before
The sturdy manhood of the city has stood firm and by
maintaining the sentiment for law enforcement has made
the law success The prophets OF failure have been
confused.

Story of Fight Between Negro and

There was once a glove fight in the
East End of London between negro and
an Irishman.
The referee was also of Irish birth. and

Wilson's Little Joke.

1t wasn't. SO very long ago that How
ard Wilson was playing ball. He was
with Philadelphia and Washington for a
time. and while in the big league was one
of the most popular of pitchers. Wilson
was a Hebrew. the essence of good ma

strong.
While playing with the Athletics Will

Misjudging one of the big fellows fast

and went down as il shot.
The injury wasn't serious, and i'm a
few hours the youngster was as good as
ever. That evening Eddie Plank, who
had been away from town for the day,
met Wilson in the hotel and said:

NEW "PENNSYv EQUIPMENT.
More Car Orders to Be Placed Soon
for Lines West

PITTSBURG. November 6.-More car
orders are soon to be placed by the
Pennsylvania company for the lines west.
Inquiries sent out the past week have
come to the car building companies for
5000 new steel cars of the standard
type. 100000 pounds capacity. for deliv-
cry next year. This inquiry is in addi-
ton to the 10000 cars of the battle
ship type on which car companies are
bidding. Thus. i'm all. the Pennsylvania
company row has under consideration a
total of 1900 steel cars for 1910 de-
livery. valued at about $4,000 600.
In connection with the new 5000 car
order. it was stated yesterday that the
railroad is asking for specifications that
include steel wheels for that lot of cars.
Tho big order for "battleship" cars with
a carrying capacity of seventy-seven
tons each will also include all-steel
wheels, as it is the use of these wheels
that makes the larger cars possible.
The railroad officials stated yesterday
that all told the Pennsylvania would
probably be in the market for 10000
steel wheels during 1910 for freight cars
alone.

FOREIGN MARKETS.

LONDON. November 6-The stock eX-
change experienced another heavy week,
with dropping tendency in values. and
closed generally lower. The chief cause
of the early weakness was the heavy .liq-
uida ton of weak accounts in connection
with the settlement both for local and
continental account, this stock being
marketed later. Department values were
heavy, especially in the Kaffir section.
while the new issues and monetary IN
fiuences held speculation as we'll as in
vestment in check. Operators feared a
rise I'm the bank rate last Thursday, and
they still believe that this action is only
being postponed. The money market.
however does not seem to share in this
view and discount houses are still be
low the banks minimum
Despite the poor showing by the re-
turn, it is believed that the bank will
take further steps to reduce the floating
supplies in order to make the per cent
rate effective. and discounts hardened
trfle yesterday, but continental eX-
changes on London were still only high
enough to allow the bank to secure this

stock banks assist I'm making the > per
cent rate effective and attract gold a
higher bank rate before the end of the
year is still considered possible.
Copper shares have been one of the
liveliest sections on the American rumOrs
of coming deals. Grand Trunk shares
only recovered slightly from the early
liquidation by continental and local
houses. British securities were neglected
throughout the week and closed frac-
tionally lower.
American securities have been censid-
erably quieter, with much irregularity
United States Steel advanced on trade
reports and the renewal of rumors that
the stock would be listed on the Paris
bourse. while the Hartman issues at
tracted increased attention at the end of
the week. but Pennsylvania and New
York Central dropped on the pending new
issues. TOday's market closed lower in
anticipation of poor New York bank
statement. making the final rates one
point higher to two points lower than
last Saturday.

tainty of foreign markets and the gold
situation.

JONES TAKES CHANCE
TO SAVE THE TIGERS

Some time when somebody happens TO
say something about the worlds series of
the present year. and he may happen 10
be one OF those someoodies who can see
no good i'm anybody or I'm anything. who
is suspicious of all mankind. and not
even wholly certain that ne can rely upon
himself. tell him the little story of how
Tom Jones happened tn he injured in
tho sixth game Of the series between De-
troit and Pittsburg.
IL NAV not convince him as TO the up
rishtness of mankind. but at least it will
be a sedative for an overwrought imaS-
ination.
Wilson had hit the ball. and was tear
ing toward first base with speed enough
to stampede Texas cattle ranch.
Schmidt was trying TO throw the ball.
Merely trying. because he is not the most
accurate thrOwer in the world, and,
whether he were playing in a world $
series or for personal amusement. il isn't
safe TO predict that he would hit the
bulls-eye more than once out of seven
times.
This throw was wild. and Jones knew
that 10 try 10 save the ball he would
have to step I'm the path of the base run
ner and probably would be hurt, how Sc
verely would depend upon the force OF the
collision.
If he let the ball go the runner would
far as third. while the runners ahead of
him would score without fail. There were
two of them. Jones did not hesitate a
moment. He threw himself directly in
front of the runner and partially blocked
the ball, although he was unable to catch
il. He was knocked ten feet by the force
of the collision and his spinal column was
slightly injured.
But he saved all the runs but one.
IL afterward was proved. as the game
WAS play we'd that if Jones had not taken
this desperate chance. which might have
injured him for life, PittsbuTg would sure
ly have won the sixth and deciding game
of the worlds series. and il never would
have been necessary TO play the seventh.
So any time that the human crouch
gets one OF his blue days and starts to
discuss some phases of our national sport
with which he happens not 10 be init
mately acquainted. cite 10 him the story
of Tom Jones. the player who made the
seventh game of the worlds series essen
tial at the risk of his own bodily COM
fort for the remainder of his DAYS.
