with five prospective teams of the
keokuk bowling association represent
ed the handicap system was adopted
by unanimous vote although it was
clearly seen that the captains of some
OF the star teams were not exactly in
favor OF it, simply voting for the pur-
pose OF making tne contests this win
ter interesting. Ten dollars was made
the entrance fee for teams and fifty
cents the fee for individuals. The Sec
rotary, still unappointed, is to receive
ten dollars for his work during the
season and 100 is to be the average
of the absent men on team,
this to be added to the averages of
the men present to determine the to-
tai score of the evening. These things
together with the division of prizes
We're determined upon at the meeting
of the Keokuk bowling heads last
night
Attendance Small.
The attendance was small as has al
ready been limited at, although many
had promised to be present. BY half
past eight o'clock there were five
teams, the Keokuk club, Sieberts,
Grand Leaders, Olympias and Drex-
els with Alegates on hand Believing
that number represented a number
which would make a majority even
tually upon the opening of the season,
President Wolf decided that the bust
ness which they had gathered for
should be acted upon. This was done
with the results tabulated above.
A new scheme was devised, having
to do with the remuneration which
the alley owners would receive for the
use of TER halls. 1t is as follows:
Each man will be charged ten cents
for every game that he rolls, making
thirty cents per tournament. Five
cents of this total will go into the
league treasury to be used for prize
money in addition to what will be rea-
LIKED by other teams so that the
| lump" derived by this means will. If
each team bowls twenty games and
there is a ten team league, amount to
fifty dollars for the season. The al
ley men accepted the proposition.
The handicap system which was
adopted is the one given by the St
Louis Bowler, magazine having to
do with the sport. This was carefully
explained in Fridays issue of The
Gate City.
If there are ten teams in the league
or fewer than that even, there will be
a great demand for bowlers and with
the handicap system in force every
one will nave good chance of play
ing on winning team. Those at the
head of affairs are very anxious that
as many as possible will make it
known that they wish to get in the
game tlis winter SO that things may
be started without having to scout
around for players at the last Aoment

laws. fail to meet the requirements of employers.
 Tt would seem that an institution which on the one hand fails to give complete protection to the employer, and on the other applies the greater part of it's premiums in an effort to defeat the claims of employees, is ab- solutely without defense" he said.
 Tt would be better for everyone if the needed reform could be brought about through the medium of trade agreements" said MT. Ross. in con- clusion. but on account of the limited number who are affiliated with labor unions and organizations of employers. this is impossible. and we must look to the compelling influence of general law to accomplish it.
 While the fact that we have so many separate sovereignties in this republic may retard its introduction as a measure of law. many encourag- ing examples have been offered by the national government so far as its sphere extends. Besides, the attitude of thinking men and the present pro- tective plans of many individual and great corporate employers are paving the way for the coming change. which in dealing with the problems of men killed and injured, while in the line of their employment, will substitute for the legal idea of negligence. the more humane principle of compensation"
 The expectation that the report of the special committee which had in- vestigated the Alaska mining laws would be sensational met with disap- continent. While the Alaskan coal lands and the laws applyings to them were discussed at length. there was not the slightest reference directly to the Cunningham coal land controversy which resulted in the order by Presi- dent Taft for the dismissal of Field Agent Glavis of the department of the interior, because of the charges he had made against Secretary Ballinger.
 The resolution introduced by Senator NeWiands Of Nevada. calling for the creation by congress of a department of mines with a mining secretary in the presidents cabinet. is still under dis cusslon in committee In opposition to the idea of Senator Newlands. Judee hlchardson of Idaho. president of the congress. today introduced resolution approving of a buerau of mines instead of department.

THE WIND TOO STRONG
 FOR AER0PlANEs
WRIGHT AND CURTISS DID NOT
 DARE ALOFT
Their Law Suit Does Not Disturb
 Their Friendly Relations

New York, Sept. 3O.-Resting upon their laurels of yesterday. Wilbur Wright and Glenn H. Curtiss did not venture on flights today in the face of a strong wind that blew continu- ously over New York harbor. The ap- plication of the Wright brothers for a temporary restraining ordereo prevent curtiss from making exhibition flights. applied for today in Buffalo, was sought by the wrights. according to a statement of Wilbur Wright today. for the purpose of hastening court ac- tion in their case against Curtiss.
 'I think this suit will be regarded as a test case, he said. We want to get a decision in the matter as soon has been done"
 Curtiss. when informed of the action of the Wrights. telephoned the infor- nation to his attorneys. There was no evidence that the action involved per sOnal feeling Wright said it would be of equal value to all interests to have the matter settled as soon as possible. '
 When informed of tbs report that his brother had made a flight over 500 feet high in Germany today. Wilbur Wright said he doubted whether the report was correct, because he did not think his brother would go up to such a height without any evident purpose in doing it.

UNDERMINED OF CORNER
 IN SEPTEMBER WHEAT
IT DOOMED UP IN THE LAST
 MOMENT.
There Was a Consequent Riot Among
 the Shorts

Chicago. Sept 30.-The wheat squeeze" which distributed speculat- i've routine with a fourteen cent ad- vance in the September option on the Board of Trade here today. lacked none of the features of former years when "Old Hutch" Cudahy. Partridge and others were wont to explode bombs under the traders It was the cleanest cut of any corner in many years.
 The Patten deal of last spring was an open secret long before final deliv- cry day. but what happened today came out of a clear sky. September wheat had been tagging toward the end with every evidence of ebbing vii tality. For a month there had been practically nothing doing in the option Septembed closed yesterday at 1O6 and sluggishly slept through most of to- days session slightly above that fig ure. In vague way. there was known to be a short interest, but that some particular individual or clique had se- cured control of the long side was un- dreamed of
 The traders in control are said to have hceld about 1.0O0,0O0 bushels, while the scattered short interest was estimated at between 5,00O,00O and $10,O00,000. No colossal winnings or losses are involved. although some of the weaker shorts were hard hit when "shoestring" resources were consider ed. The effort of some of those to ex-- tricate themselves during the last fren- Zied half hour were pitiful.
 September was at sI07 when the rot of the shorts began. Conditions had been bearish, and although Sep tember held sturdily in price, the shorts still believed a break would come. As the final moment of the trading month drew near and the break did Tot materialize, the true condition of affairs became apparent. One long. with 5O.O0O. 900 bushels to his credit snatched his profit at s1.I0 and then watched what became of his sale. In the next thirty minutes Unchanged hands twenty times on an advancing scale. Brokerage commissions alone on the various transfers aggregated $50.

terday. The slackened activity was due partly to caution on account of the october 1 money settlements. Pressure on United States Steel was conspicuous in spite of the fact that the month just closed showed an excess in the output of steel in ad- vance of all precedent and as still in force. There was some pressure on Reading which proved a weight on the general market. The August earnings of the Union and Southern Pacific were equally significant of the growth of traffic in that part of the country, the net earnings for the
 Union Pacific showing gain of $711,551, equal to 20 per cent, and Southern Pacific. s1.067. .O96. equal to 3l per cent over August of last year
 Joined with the Atchison statement already published. this exhibit makes a striking demonstration of the great prosperity to which the business of the great Pacific carriers have risen. Bonds were firm; total sales, s5.336,- 900. United States bonds unchanged

GRAIN.

Chicago, Sept 3O.-Shorts in Sep tember wheat and oats were severely squeezed" during today's session Of the board of trade. when the price for the current months delivery of wheat was bid up 15 cents and oats .5R cents, as compared with the close yesterday. September wheat advanc- ed from 0round s1.07 to s1.2O. In the first half hour September sold off to Sl05Ss but soon rallied to above slO6. December sold up to s1.03ss at the start. but late in the day de- clined to 99&c. Final quotations on September were at sI.2O. December closed at ss& 6ss7sc. Liquidation of September holdings was the order of the day in the corn market. the sentiment being extremely bearish. The market closed weak. almost at the lowest point, with prices off 4 to 2% cents.

MARCHING
 THOUSANDS Great Military Parade In Huds0n-FuIton Show THE CELEBRATIONS CLIMAX
So Many Men in Uniform Had Not Been Seen in America Since Civil War. German Sailors Consti- tuted the Feature

New York, Sept 3O.-Twenty-five thousand men of arms today marched past the massed representatives and special envoys of thirty-seven nations, while 2,OOO. 900 citizens shouted them selves hoarse in cheers. The great military parade was the climax of the Hudson Fulton celebration The most conspicuous reception of the day went to the sailors of the German fleet, a picked body of magnificent men. who as they reached the reviewing stand, fell into the formal slap-slap of the parade goose step and burst into My Country 'Tis of Thee" with an over whelming volume of bassos and a fervor that took away the breath of the listeners. The people sat silent for a moment and then. rising 10 their feet, cheered until their voices gave way.
 Between the cheers for the Germans and the thunder of applause for the precision of the drill with which the West Point cadets moved past, the characteristic humor of an American crowd found opportunity for expression in thousand familiar salutations to those. in line.
 So many men representing so many branches of the war departments of the world has not been seen on Ameri- can streets before; so many wearing solors have not been seen since the days of the civil war. The total count of those in line today outnumbered the enlisted roll of the American regular army before the Spanish American war. Four thousand and four hundred policemen kept the crowd in line.
