AUTO DRIVERS WHO WON.
Dingley and Robertson at the Top
 Hanshue is Best in the West.

Outside the racing machin S. the drivers figure very highly in the pub lie interest. These daredevils whose performances have thrilled thousands stand as heroes, whether they have won a bunch of rases or have been consistent also rans. Ofttimes the ma chine quits before the man gives out.
 The stars for 1909 are comparative ly few, however. and this limelight proposition is based wholly on success full performances Name Dingley, Rob ertson, Chevrolet, Hanshue. Grant, Watson, Harroun Knipper, Burman and young See and the list is about complete.
 Among this notable list it would be difficult indeed to select one who is head and shoulders above the rest, as was the case in 1908, when Strang had them all beaten in number of races won.
 Bert DingIey and George Robertson however seem to be entitled to a lot of credit for their work DingIey might even be given the preference. because he has driven in seven races during the past year, winning two. landing second three times and third once. Only once did he fail to finish. The dope shows that his fastest race was in the Wemme event, in which he made an average of 5S.7 miles per hour, and his sloweSt performance was in the Vesper cup in which he finished third, at 52.06 miles per hour.
 Robertson started only four times. Two of these times he won. the Fair mount Park race and at Lowell. He was second in the Indiana trophy and third in the Cobe cup.
 Chevrolet made three wins, but the black marks against him are the four times he ran unplaced.
 Out on the Pacific coast they have produced a driver who gives great promise for the future. He is big Harris Hanshue, unknown in the east until he served as mechanic for Sey- mour in the Cobe race. Then he went back home and electrified the world of motordom by winning the Ferris cup road race in an Apperson at the rate of 64.45 miles per hour. Hanshue achieved another victory when he won the big car event at the Portola meet and ran second to Fleming in the free for all at the same meet. He was

SHOWING M'GRATH'S
 HEAD SCISSORS AND ARM.
One Way Jack Puts the Big Ones to
 the Mat.

The cartoon on this page showes the hold which Jack McGrath, the Irish Giant, obtained when putting Bill Harris, champion of Wisconsin. to the mat, with his much talked of head, scissors and arm hold-a hold that McGrath has down to perfection, and which is almost impossible for anyone to break. Jack says says he has in- vented a way of breaking it, but is go- ing to keep it under cover, as it is the best thing he has got on to in a long to let it get away from him. McGrath is so well pleased with the way he got Harris-who by the way IS one of the best i nthe game-that he thinks he can go and get the best in the east, or anywhere, for that matter. Me Grath has all kinds of backing which is ready for him at any time, and ''P. Plank" Shea says his roll will be there for anyone that wants any of Jacks game, no matter who it might be. He bars none.

YALE-HARVARD RACE
 JUNE 30 ON THAMES.
Blue Consents to Date Proposed by
 Crimson Oarsmen.

The Harvard crew, for the last two years victors over Yale, this year will race Annapolis, Cornell and Yale, in the order named, according to an an nouncement made unoff1cially by Graduate Manager W. F. Carcelon. The dates and agreements are expected to be ratified by the Harvard athletic council at it's next meeting.
 Though desiring earlier date to conform with the change in the Yale commencement date, the blue oarsmen consented to June 30 as the day for the race with Harvard at New London. The crimson will race the middies on April 21 at Annapolis, and Cornell May 30 on the Charles river basin.
 There appears little prospect that Harvard will race either Syracuse or Columbia, both of which colleges sought dates.

 Although the Waterbury man es- tablished such Q fine lead, the Brass City sports seem to be still quaking in their boots that he cannot hold the pace to the finish, as they refused all kinds of bets that Manager Stone offered on Murphy, either to win the match or to lead in total pinf-n

President Taft Says He Has
Tried to Do What Was Right,
Not Simply POlitic.

WASHINGTON, March 10 Since
taking office it has been my endeavor
TO do what is right, rather than those
things which would bring to me political
strength declared President Taft with
earnest emphasis in the course of an
address which he delivered last nigh
before the Rochester Chamber of Com
merce. The president outlined the poll
cies of the administration and pointed
out what he is endeayoring TO accom-
plish.
In the course, of his talk President
Taft said that he hoped the Republicans
party has sense enough and sufficient
discipline 10 meet its responsibilities
fairly and squarely, and will not try
to dodge the issue.
The speech was listened 10 by large
audience, aud frequently the president
was interrupted by shouts OF applause.
As he took his seat he was heartily ap-
plauded.

Neither Side Can Yet Claim a
Victory in Unprecedented
Parliamentary Fight.
WILL BE RESUMED TODAY
Talk That Champ Clark May Be
Named to Succeed Cannon
Should Latter Lose.

WASHINGTON, March 19-Specula-
tion is rife among the political wise
ones concerning the probable outcome
of the struggle between the regular Re.
publicans and the insurgents and
Democrats in the house. That the
struggle will be renewed with increased
vigor when the house meets today is
conceded and excitement is intense.
So far neither side can claim a vic
tory and the outcome of the battle up
to date is generally regarded as a
draw. The insurgents with Democratic
assistance have managed to hold their
ground, but they have been unable to
secure any marked advantage over the
regulars. The regulars ale exerting
every effort to bring together missing
members and get them onto the floor
before time for the house to convene
this morning.
WASHINGTON, March 1S.-At two
o'clock this afternoon the house of
representatives took recess of two
hours after one of tie longest continu.
Gus sessions and one of the most bit
terly.fought parliamentary battles in
the history of that assembly.
The session had continued through
the night, and the morning dawned on
a very tired but very hard.fghting but
| determined body of congressman. Ev-
cry absentee had been brought in. and
every trick of the filibustering game in
legislation was used throughout the
long night. Roll-call followed roll-call
on small points of order, and speeches
were made to occupy time. These were
interspersed with vigorous and acri-
monious passages between the leaders
of the opposing forces.
The Republican regulars led the
flibustering, and for the time being
appear to be at the mercy of the COM
bined Democrats and insurgents who
claim majority of ten votes.
This afternoon at 4:4S the house ad-
| journed, both sides being physically ex-
hausted and quite willing to postpone
further consideration of the Norris
resolution, that caused all the trouble,
until tomorrow.
Cause of Trouble.
The incident that forced the recess
was Speaker Cannon IS refusal to rule
without consulting the precedents, on
the motion to declare the Norris resolu-
tion out of order. This resolution, intro
duced yesterday by Congressman Nor
ris of Nebraska, provides for new
committee on rules and the elimination
of the Speaker in the organization OF
this committee.
i All during the might, while the regu.
lars were fighting to prevent quorum
and using every means to secure de-
lay, committees representing the regu'
lars and the insurgents were in almost
continuous conference seeking to reach
basis of compromise. All their meet
ings were fruitless.
If there is reorganization of the
rules committee as proposed by the
insurgents, and Cannon is'deposed, the
regulars threaten to vote for Champ
Clark, the Democratic leader of the
, house, for Speaker.
, The insurgents scorn this threat, a.
/ they claim joint majority of ter
, votes, and consequently the absolute
control of the house.

BILL FOR REVENUE
CUTTER FOR HAWAII

Delegate Kalanianaole has introduced
into the house, Bill No. 2lS32, which
provides for the construction of a reve'
nue. cutter for service in the Hawaiian
Islands, for which an appropriation of
4250,O00 is mentioned. =.
This Is a request of congress which
has been agitated for some time. the
proposition being to construct vessel
fitted for service in these semitropical
waters. Some Of the vessels sent here
are totally untitled for the work, some
being too hot for comfort and Others
are not speedy enough.

The above is partial compromise
slate being considered by various lead
ers of the Republican party for the
coming campaign.
Those who have framed up the slate
believe that Jack Lucas is candidate
for mayor who would stand better
show against the incumbent, Joe
Fern, than any one else. This be-
lief is expressed in the fact that while
the names of both Lucas and Hustace
have been considered for the mayor
atty, it is thought that Hustace run
ming against Richard Trent, the Dem
ocratic incumbent, will be the most
powerful opponent the Republican
party can furnish. Trent has held
office three terms, but leading Repub'
licans think Hustace can beat him.
As to the county attorneyship, John
Cathcart, the Republican incum'
bent, will probably try for another
nomination. w. 7. Rawlins, the pres
ent assistant United States district at
torney, may contest with him for the
Republican support, and hard fight
will probably be waged before the con
vention meets to get Rawlins into the
running.
As to the shrievalty, Andrew Cox
seems to be the popular selection of the
politicians and even the conservatives
Mr.. Cox is deacon in many Hawaiian
churches all over the Island, and ha'

Gratis recognize.

Two thousand laborers, majority of
them skilled laborers, will be employed
at Pearl Harbor within couple of
years, according to the estimates made
by naval officers, in view of the appro-
priations which congress is making for
the naval station. This means an addi-
tion of from six to eight thousand or
more to the population of Honolulu, as
it is thought that most of this labor will
have to be imported.
The two thousand laborers would not
make the Pearl Harbor station equal
to the other big American stations, and
the estimate is regarded as conserva-
tive. The construction of great dry
dock, and of other docks. at Pearl Har-
Dor. will call for an immense force, and
only citizen labor is to be used. 81
do not think the people of Honolulu
realize what is in store, said the naval
officer referred to. "Where are the
accommodation for two or three thou
sand new arrivals here, a majority OF
whom viii be men of family2 The
ordinary estimate in America is five t.
