If your trellis wires are loose this spring,
Talk to Waters about some of those wire
tighteners. We have two kinds one a steel
kind, same as we sold in 1908 where you
cut the wire between the posts and put id

the other malleable casting that clamps on
to the wire anywhere, and tightens up by

M''FARLAND'S DECISION
 OVER CYCLONE THOMPSON
The Victor Had to Be Assured That
 He Had Won

Kansas City, Nov. S-Packy Me Farland. the idol of the Chicago stock yards district, was given a decision over Cyclone Johnny Thompson of Sycamore, Illinois, in a whirlwind fight of ten rounds here tonight The battle was that of a scientific boxer who was able to hit and get away against a man whose main asset is slugging and who could not get near enough to his shifty opponent to land. In but one round, the second, was Thompson able to send home enough telling blows to make it appear that his strength would carry the fight home to win. Thompson also took a brace in the last three rounds and did some good work.
 When Referee Joe Coffey of Chi cago raised Packey's glove, Mcfarland did not realize that he had won. Two minutes after the decision had been rendered he hurried across the ring to the press box and aswed: Did win?' When assured that he was the victor a broad smile overspread his face and he said: I've got rid at last of the man who blocked my path to a scrap with Nelson"

IT IS \ GIGANTIC TASK
Which Can Be Accomplish
 ed Only By the Country at Large-Chairman Al drich's Address Before Bankers at St. Louis

St. Louis, Nov. S.-With an emphasis even stronger than in. his Chicago speech, Chairman Aldrich of the mon- etary- commission, made it it evident to the businessmen of St. Louis today and tonight, that if is his purpose to devote himself to the one work of re- forming the currency system of the United States. He spoke briefly to- day before a limited gathering of bankers at the Monday club. and more extendedly tonight before the Commercial club.
 T do not come to you with any plan of monetary reform" he said. -In- deed. if should be delegated today in- dividually and personally. to prepare scheme for a new system of finance for the country, should be at a loss to know how to proceed. I shall find 1t necessary to enter upon a careful investigation and would not undertake to formulate anything without much more study than have been able to give this subject. Even in that event should want your-advice and cooper alton and should ask your aid just as am asking it now for the commission.
 'I realize, as I know all of you do, the absolute necessity of reforming the currency upon the broadest national lines. The work to be done cannot be done by any rOne man. nor by any set of men; it cannot be done by any one party. nor by any interest or any one section. It cannot be done by a com mission or by congress without the aid of the country at laoe-
 ''Our plan must be one that will take into consideration the wants of the town and of country as well as those of the city. We cannot afford and shall not attempt to legislate alone for New York or New Orleans or San <Francisco; but we must also legislate for St Louis. Chicago. Denver. Louis vile, Springfield. Peoria and Little Rock.
 "Our system must be one that will satisfy the manufacturers of New Eng Ian. the agriculturists of the Missis- sippi valley. the miners of the Rocky mountains and the Pacific coast, and the merchants of all sections. Surely the task before us is one of gigantic proportions
 The nearest approach MT. Aldrich made to an indication of a plan was in his discussion of bank issues. He again said the European countries were quite agreed on that subject and he referred to the circumstances that most of those countries maintained central banking institutions for the issuance of bank papers. He stated however, that it could not be expected that any European ranking system could be transplanted in it's entirety to this country. and he again pointed out the great necessity of finding a plan that would not disturb establish ed banks nor interfere with the pro- gress of business.
 Whatever system should be adopted. he said. must be one looking to gradual changes and must have a due regard to vested interests and sectional usages. Again. he assured his hearers of his desire to hold the subject en- tirely above political bias. and he went into some details to convince his audi ence that it would be possible to adopt system that would accomplish this desirable result.

COOK IS GLAD NOW
 HE STUCK TO DENMARK
IN VIEW OF ADMIRAL cHESTER'S
 INTERVIEW.
He Sees What the Geographical Soci
 ety Would Have Done to Him.

New York, Nov. S.-Although he an- nounced early tonight that he had re- tired to a quiet place, -away from New York" Dr. Cook later caused to be issued through a friend statement in answer to Rear Admiral Chester of the National Geographical Society. who discredited the Brooklyn explor- CTS claims in an interview in Wash ington. Dr. Cook says:
 This is the unbiased gentleman who displayed such anxiety to pass upon my records, and who now desires to go to Copenhagen as an unprejudiced witness. Do the American people won der that I have kept my promise to the scientists of Denmark?
 ''The only point raised by Admiral Chester is the suggestion of an erron- eous location by observations of the midnight sun. This sight of the mid night sun on April ' is no evidence of our position. Though the days had been clear for the north, the skies had not been clear at night for many days previous to this. A low haze or cloud mess obscured the horizon and the sun sank into this. We did not use the sun at night for observations. Nor did we stay awake all night to watch the effects
 The original data which I will send to Copenhagen on November 9 by a special messenger will be accompanied by an analysis which I am now pre- pairing and which, l hope, will make e, the University of Copenhagen to ex- plain such questions as may arise up- on the original record of my observa- tions.
 My unaltered original field notes and my instruments, when 1 recover them; will of course, be available for examination by the National Geo. graphical Society upon the condition that Peary agrees to submit his orig inal data and instruments for exami- nation to the University of Copenha- gen.

THE BUICK LED THE WAY IN. The Winner of The Republican Cup Race The Great
 Automobile Event of The Year
 The Time From Los Angeles to Phoenix Reduced By Nearly Thirteen Hours Over the Worst Automobile Course in America Six Cars Still Scattered Some- where Along the Route-the Isotta's Miserable Luck

1 damaged and was at one time thought | to be out of the race The Doris | struck a tree on the California side
 and gave up the race. The Ford was | last seen laboring in the sands on the | other side of the river.
 Perhaps the hardest luck of all was
 that which followed F. c. Fenner and | Herrick in the Isotta- Fraschini. This
 car at the river was but forty minutes ! behind the Buick. It was an even bet
 in Phoenix yesterday that Fenner would catch the Buick before it got ! to PhoeniX-that is, would make up 1 the forty minutes and win The IsOtta l was the first car out of Ehrenberg, as it was the first car in It left at 5:15 am. yesterday. The schedule
 time was five o'clock but on account
 of the darkness 1t was decided by the drivers of all the cars at the river to wait another quarter of an hour for
 daylight Fenner then started on his way to Phoenix, followed fifteen min
 utes later by the Nikrent brothers in
 the Buick Along the road from
 ouartzsite to Salome tine two cars passed and repassed each other.
 Whenever one would stop for a mo-
 ment to take on oil or tinker up, the other would pass. This was kept up for many miles and then the Nikrent boys lost sight of Fenner. The latter
 was reported from the ostrich farm and then there was a long wait at the fair grounds. Fenner had met with serious trouble at Quartzsite. The lsotta struck a rock in the center of the road and damaged the carbureter. From there on it limped badly and a little over a mile from the finish line stopped altogether Fenner accepted a tow and was hauled over the line.
 The judges took his time though it was their opinion that no car could finish the race with a dead motor. Judges James s. Griffin and l. T. Hosey cOntended that, while the rules do not absolutely specify that no ear shall be lowed over the line. it is the sense of the regulations that only a car with a live motor can finish. The clause which permits any sort of power except that of a railway train does not refer to the finish of the race. A tow is perfectly lawful in the middle of the desert-anywhere in fact, except at the finish.
 Col. Fenner, when seen after the race did not attempt to claim second place. He accepted the hard luck with true sportsmaEship and forgot his misfortunes almost at once. He will attempt to retrieve his fortunes in the race next Thursday and yes terday offered to place $2.5OO even money that the Isotta would win the ten miles race against the Kissell.ar and the Pennsylvania for one of the copper cups. This offer has not yet been accepted by anyone.
 The real finish of the race was at the entrance to the fair grounds. That is where the time was taken. al though the cars ran out on the track |,
