Baton Rouge, June 28.-While
Governor Sanders himself absolutely
declines to discuss the sentorial stu
alton created by Senator McEnery's
death, it was the intention Of close
friends that he will agree to become
a candidate with the understanding
that he will remain as Governor until
Congress meets in December. It is
perfectly plain from a sounding of
the two Houses that the governor
will be elected by practically unan-
imous vote.
News of the death of Senator Sam
uel D. McEnery struck the Capitol
today with stunning force. In its
personal sense it created profound
and universal regret; it fell like a
bombshell, complicating an other
wise placid situation.
At first blush the election of Gov
ernor Sanders to succeed to the va
cancy seemed the inevitable result.
That would have the effect of elevat-
ing Lieutenant Governor Lamber-
mont to the executive Office.
The fact that the death occurred
during the session Of the Legislature
makes it necessary for that body tc
choose successor or let the State g
unrepresented for the next two
years.

SENATOR s. d. McENERY is DEAD
Distinguished Democrat and Able Statesman, tie
Was Deeply Beloved by His People Who OFTEN
Honored Him and now Sorrow at his Death.

Louisiana Tuesday morning was
plunged into that sorrow and regret
which only the death Of great
statesman can bring to the hearts of
loyal people whom he had served
most. faithfully, fearlessly and ably,
through the death of United States
Senator Samuel Douglas McEnery,
which sorrowful and almost totally
unsupported event occurred this
morning at 9:40 o'clock at his home,
after an illness Of little more than a
day. Louisiana mourns faithful,
fearless, alert son and guardian Of
her interest. Democracy potent
and powerful adherent, exponent and
champion of its principles, the fast
dimming memory Of the Lost Cause
one Of the bravest and most distin-
guished links which bound it to the
present, and the community citizen
Of such high moral worth and integri-
ty, such inestimable value as to make
his passing an irreparable1 loss.

had any thought that his condition
was serious. In consequence the
news OF his demise came as most
sorrowful shock to every one Of the
many hearts throughout Louisiana in
q which the venera bic statesman was
held in profound esteem. The news
Of his death spread rapidly. Within
half an hour it was known not only
throughout the city but throughout
the greater portion Of the State,

GOV. SANDERS FOR u. S. SENATOR
The Legislature is Nearly Unanimous in Choice Of
Gov. Sanders for Senator McEnery's Place, Dut
He will Continue as Governor until December.

The Governor will be without au-.
thority to make an appointment dur
ing the two years recess. Senator
McEnery's term would have expired
on March 81, 1916. His successor for !
the full time will be nominated i'll the
State primary in 1912, and elected by
the Legislature of that year. Gov
ernor Sanders ambition to go to the
Senate has been an open secret. tt
was, however, a fact we'll known to-
those having intimate knowledge Of
official affairs that he had notified
both Senator Foster that so long as
either of them lived he would not OPP
pose the one or the other.
Washington, June 29.-Many per-.
sons in Washington when they learn-,50
ed that it was probable that GOV.
Jared Y. Sanders would be elected
Senator to succeed the late Senator
| McEnery were we'll pleased. Cover
nor Sanders, on various visits to

ence, rivers and harbors gatherings
and on his recent visit with a Louis
Llama delegation in the interest of the

impression in Washington. He will

sections Of the country were ap-
prised of Louisiana's loss.
Senator McEnery had apparently
been in his wonted state of health
for some time past. His duties for
the last session Of Congress having
ended, he started for home last Sat-
urday afternoon. Shortly before
reaching Lynchburg, Va; he suffered
a violent attack of acute Indigestion.
Those in company with the venerable
gentleman did all that lay in their
power to relieve his sufferings. At
Lynchburg Mr.. James Ewing, son
Of Col. Robert Ewing, boarded the
same train at the Virginia Military
Institute, and Immediately upon
learning of Senator McEnery's ILL
ness fastened to his side and offered
what assistance he might. The
sufferer was somewhat relieved upon
arrival in New Orleans on Monday.
/ sT
Immediately he was taken to his
home, physicians were summoned
hurriedly, his family physician hav-
ling met Senator McEnery at the de-
pot and escorted him to his home.s
!! Through their combined efforts the
Imalady from which he was suffering
was subdued to some measure, and
throughout Monday afternoon and
the greater part Of the night he app
parently was resting easier, much re-
a|lieved. Toward the morning hours,
however, when human vitality is at
4 its lowest ebb, be began to sink stead
lily despite the ever, effort Of the at
tendant physicians, until, $40 o'clock
i Tuesday forenoon he laid down his his
4 earthly burden, and as if passing into

the contrary. 1t will be a fight for the
initial sack position between Bud and
Flynn. Should Bud fail to peat Flynn
for the job Joe will be there to have
him for the Tigers.
At first Clarke seemed to under-esti-
mate the ability of Sharpe. but when
the Pittsburg club asked for waivers
on the Scranton boy they soon found
that there were many other major
league clubs which could use Sharpe
and Clarke's eyes were opened. Mean
while McGinnity has been following the
situation closely and has beer in COM
munication with both of the clubs.
Manager Joe also has his eyes on
Catcher Wilson. of the Giants. and will
attempt to persuade Manager McGraw
to dispense with the services of his
utility hackstop. Wilson has not played
regularly as a member of the New
York team, but on the few occasions
that he has been given a trial he
showed up well, so well in fact that
McGraw has been keeping him for the
last two years. Out of friendship for
McGinnity the Little Napoleon may
see his way clear to dispense with the
services of Wilson.

ESSEX COUNTY COUNTRY
CLUB MAY GET STATE MEET,

111IE no dennlte action has been
taken to date on the subject, 1t
is possible that the State cham
pionship tournament of the New Jersey
State Golf Association will be held on
the links of the Essex County Golf
Club on June 2. 8 and 4. An unofficial
application was made by the delegate
of the Essex County Golf Club for the
tournament at the annual meeting of
the State Golf Association, held in New
York yesterday afternoon. Most of the
members favored the selection of the
Essex Clubs links, but, as a written
application for the tournament was
presented by the Country Club of At
lantic City, the matter will not be de-
cided until later.
The annual meeting of the associa-
ton was held at the office of w. C.
Shoup, the secretary-treasurer, at so
Wall street. Delegates were present
from the E~nglewood Golf Club, Plain
field Country Club, Essex County
Country Club and Yountakah Country
Club. H. V. Keep, of Englewood, was
unanimously elected to succeed himself
as president. and, in accordance with
custom, he will at a later date appoint
his executive committee.
The treasurer's report showed a bal
ance on hand of $4S2.32 or 81 more than
a year ago, despite the TACT that the
dues had been reduced from SIS to $40.
With regard to prizes, it was decided
to have as many as formerly, but with
fewer medals, Mr.. Keeps contention
being that they should be awarded only
to the winner of the tournament and the
maker of low scores in the qualifying
round Whether or not the gross score

be a media was left to the discretion
of the committee.

A NATIONAL soccer aggregation,

A PAIR of County League contests
"A are on the card for tonight.
The Ironside A. G. team will
play at Bayley Lyceum and the Bloom
field Lyceum quintet will meet the
Belleville c. &C. quintet at Belleville.
Should the Ironsides win and the
Bloomfelds lose the former team would
again be at the head of the league. If.
both should lose it would bring them
back closer to the other c~ontenders and
the lines would be drawn closer than
ever. The Belleville team usually waits
until the last few moments of the game
to play it's best. and this is one Of the
reasons hat the team has not been
quite as successful as h other quin-
tets. B~elleviile always puts up a stiff
battle against the Bloomfielders a fact
proven by the close scores of the games
in which these two fives have been the
opponents. Bayley has not won a game
from, the Ironsides in three attempts,
but IL is possible that IN luck will
change tonight. The last time that the
Ironsides played at Bayley the home

Will Try TO Get Back Sharpe
and Frill and Sign Catcher
Wilson.

KF there are n chances for Bud
Sharpe and Jack Frill to be seen
in the uniform of the local Eastern
League club when the season opens,
Manager Joe McGinnity, who with Sec
rotary Tommy Martin, will be in New
ark tomorrow, will spare neither time
or money in his effort to get back
these two star members Of his 1909
team. Stallings is sweet on Frill and
will give him a thorough try-out in
fast company, if he shows any form
at all on the training trip of the Yanks.
Stallings is of the opinion that Soldier
Jacks" port-side twists will have the
star left-hand sluggers of the Boston
and Detroit teams throwing their bats
away. While the Iron Man will have
first call IN Jack, should Stallings de-
eide to release him. it is improbable
that Frill would return to the Newark
club until after the season has been
in progress for at least a month.

Twelve Teams, Mostly from

aptly be termed Elizabeth Night
One of the teams that is expected
to make a good showing tonight is the
Athletic League five of the Columbian
Club, of East Orange. This organi-
cation has only recently come into
existence. Its debut in the Athletic
League has not been marked by much
success. The quintet that represents
the suburban club is. however, made
up of w~ell-known and clever PIN
knights, and it is believed that they
will be able to do we'll in the STAR
head-pin tournament tonight.
From Elizabeth will come two teams
from the r. A. b. Society, all of them
with good regulations on the alleys:
a quintet from the Friday Night Club.
the well-known Matinee Club, of
Elizabeth, and a number of other
promising teams. The Night Owls are
coming up from Elizabeth in an
effort to annex some of the watch fobs.
and the New Jersey Insurance Com

The New Haven team has not yet
played a game in the tournament. and
the question of its ability to defeat

mouth at Boston last Saturday, but the
delay in opening the new rink in that
city necessitatcd a postponement.
Princeton has an undefeated record OF

will not be surpassed by the equipment

EVERYBODY was making strikes
H. last night. The big league
matches were featured by all
sorts of sensational pinning. In point
of s-ensationalism the palm must go,
of course, to the Newark team in the
National Interstate League match
with the New Workers., on the oxford
alleys.
Newark handed in three big totals
and averaged 100S,1. Lee Johns, the
anchor, and Asa Harris, the topliner,
were principally responsible for the
awful Strengthening that the pins got.
Lee averaged 241.2 for his three games
and Asa averaged 215.2. Putting the
pair into a two-man mattel n the
scores would come pretty near form
ing a worlds two-man record.
In the Newark League there were
great doings. The West Ends, on their
own alleys, succumbed twice to the
Indians, and the National Turner's got
the odd game on their own alleys from
the Parks. The West Ends n the
Indians had a remarkably close fight
in two games and put up excellent
scores in all three. The Turner's and
the Parks had 900 marks in zach game
and fought hard for the decision. The
kruegers went up to Belleville and
dropped two games.
Up at the Montclair Club the sub
urban five in an Athletic League
match rolled consistent ten-pins and
got way with three games in a series
with the Columbia Club five. of Ho-
boken. This triple win enabled the
Montclair team to pass the North Ends
and take eighth place. Columbia fell
from fourth place to sixth, New York
and Roseville moving up.
No games are scheduled for tonight in
the New Jersey national tourney on
the Tuxedo alleys. Tomorrow night the
National Turner's, Tuxedo and Elks will
meet. The Turner's need both games, in
order to get in the money, and a strong
effort will be made to cop both series.
AL Rutan, of the Tapkaows, of Morris
town, is high man so far this week for
the special prize on the Tuxedo alleys.
His score is 233, but as tonight is open
on the tourney drives there will be some
tall shooting done by the sleepers.
Billy Weingarth has entered five
teams from the Tuxedo alleys in a New
York head-pin tourney. OF course, they
all expect to get high score and gather
