@ The fact that one Of the can

IN The Record does not see the
logic in spending several times

willing to confess, there are very
Fmany things the Record does

SHREWD BASEBALL TRADES.

Chance and Clarke Split About Even
In Deep Laid CountsrpIots.
There Is no denying the shrewdness
Of Managers Frank Chance Of the Chi
cago Cubs and Fred Clarke Of the
Pittsburg Pirates. Chance knew that
Mcintyre Of the Brooklyn club had
always pitched good games against the
Pirates, so he engineered a trade
whereby three Of his surplus young
sters went to Brooklyn and he ac-
quired the services Of Mcintyre. The
latter came up to expectations. The
Brooklyn club was also strengthened
sufficiently to win a couple of games
from the Dreyfuss aggregation.
Fred Clarke in the meantime was not
sleeping. RED" White was the only
Boston pitcher that was able to beat
the Cubs last season. Accordingly
Clarke wanted White. He got him,
trading First Baseman Sharpe and
Pitcher Frock. White made good in
his first trial as Pirate. winning from
Chicago. And that was not all. Frock
twirled for Boston against the Cubs
and went through with a victory. So
1t can be said that both deals have
worked successfully from every angle.

Opposition to 1t.

AGAINST IT WERE HOWLEO
DOWN, HooTED, AND GREETED
WITH MOCK APPLAUSE.

Washington, June 21.-With just
five votes in opposition the house at
1855 o'clock this morning. passed the
omnibus public buildings bill, author
izing the expenditure of nearly $780,
600, 900.
1t was through under suspension OF
the rules. There was no opportunity
afforded for amendment. No single
item in the bill could have been pass
ed upon separately. It was swallow
ed as a whole amid scenes OF great
and noisy rejoicing, and the few men
who took the floor against it were
howled down, derided. greeted with
storms of mock applause, and all but
insulted.
Not in many years mas a night SEES
sion of congress been marked by such
demonstration.
The house seemed to have gone
money-mad and every member, appar
emily would have sat there until day
light patiently waiting the moment
for the opening of the pork bar'l.'
1t was striking lesson in the fidel
ity of congress to business. 1t show
ed that when i.>wants to, the house
can get right down to hard work.
