An American league authority is re-
sponsible for the statement that the
National league may be obliged to re-
turn to a schedule of 154 games for
this season, regardless of the recent
vote at the New York meeting in favor
OF 1GS 1t is pointed out that an ar
ticle of the leagues constitution pro-
vides that the schedule committee
shall have the say regarding the num-
Der Of games to be played, and that
the club owners, as a body, have moth

Barney Dreyfuss of Pittsburg, one of
the members Of the schedule commit
tee, is known to be in favor Of the
shorter schedule, and he may be able
to persuade his fellows not to extend
the season as the league voted to do.

DRAW BRIDGE TO BE
ERECTED BY RAILROAD

News that will be of special interest
to St. Augustine and especially to those
who use the canal is conveyed in the
statement given out Monday by Pres-
dent j. r. PARROT of the Florida East
Coast Railway that as soon as the ca
nal now being constructed by the Florida
East Coast Canal and Transportation
Company is declared navigable water
way the company will replace the pres
ent bridge across Pablo creek with a
draw bridge, thus giving access to the
canal to any vessel that can navigate it.
When Mr.. Parrott returned to st.
Augustine Monday it was reported to
him that statement was being circulated
that the company is endeavoring by it's
bridge to "bOttle up the East Coast.
Inasmuch as the officials of the COM
pany had alre ady ordered plans prepar-
ed for draw and the present bridge
was being left there only until the ca
nal is completed sufficiently to be declar-
ed navigable waterway, Mr.. PARROT
issued n statement covering this fact.
In brief his statement concerning both
this and the general policy of the road
towards the development of the entire
East Coast is as follows
''The Florida East Coast Railway
Company is now and always has been
interested in the development of this
portion of the State, and its manage
ment fully realizes that anything which
tends, and has for its purpose the de-
velopment and up-building of said por-
tion of the State, must of necessity
benefit the said Railway Company and
this Railway Company now asserts
that it stands ready and always has
been willing to lend its efforts in CO.
operating in every way to that end; and
that whenever the canal now in course
of construction by the Florida Coast
Line Canal and Transportation Com
pany has been declared navigable
waterway, the Railway Company will
not be found to be in any way obstruc-
ting such inland waterway. '

FINE PRESENTATION
BY PALM BEACH CLUB

Pygmalion and Galatea, one of the
cleanest, sweetest. most impressive
plays ever seen in Fort Pierce, was pre-
sented last Friday evening at the Crys-
tai Theatre by the Players Club OF
West Palm Bench. 1t is easy to say
that if one had not known they were
amateurs, their playing would never
have given them away, for it was per-
feet in every detail and the cast indi-
vidually and collectively deserves much
credit and appreciation from their au-
dience.
The beautiful old play will never lose
it's popularity. Its purity of consuruc..
ton and sweetness and simplicity of
plot will always make the play a fav-
orite The many unusual situations,
running from playful humor to DIT amatlc
intensity offer wide for the display OF
histrionic talent

needed to be distributed in the lateral
bitches. The nature of the Everglades
soil is such that sub irrigation will fill
the lower strata with water which will
find its way to the surface, making the
most complete irrigating plant in the
world. The annual expense of main
tanning the canals and bitches will be
comparatively light, no expensive
pumping machinery is to be supplied,
but the absolute and never failing irr-
cation will be done by natures own
process.
1t is evident that with the conditions
that will prevail when the canals and
lateral bitches are completed, that
sugar can be produced in the Ever
glades of Florida at less cost than in
any other section in the world. This
means a great deal for this southern
section; it means sugar mills, thous-
and upon thousand of employees, with
a mammoth weekly pay roll; it means
the bringing in of thousands of wealthy
men who are interested in the prOduc-
ton of cane, it means everything that
goes to the building up of prosperous

if made effective, will add over $780,
200, 600 to the revenue of the railroads.
This would first come out of the pockets
of the shippers of freight, but in the
end the consumer would have to pay it
in the increased cost Of goods over the
counters. As the only possible way to
get redress from the railroads, the
shippers are petitioning the attorney
general to prosecute the railroads for
violation of the antitrust law. But
nothing will come of this
1t is recognized by rate students that
the American public does not believe
in the persecution of the railroads.
They are the arteries of nations COM
merce, and no one wishes to see them
hampered unnecessary. The people
are also DESTROYS that the railroads
shall make reasonable, even generous
profit on capital actually invested.
On the other hand, however, it is be-
ginning to be realized that railroad
corporations should occupy somewhat
different footing from manufacturing
and mercantile corporations. The rail-
roads are, to considerable extent,

ferro.
From the incomplete reports so far
received Broward is at present leading
by 2, 400 votes, but it is generally con.
coded that these figures will be con-
siderably increased.
In many respects it was the most re-
markable political victory ever achieved
by public man in Florida. 1t was
the triumph of man whose chances a
few weeks ago were considered slim 4,
and triumph which distinguishes him
as the most unique and successful cam
paigner in Florida's history.
In the first primary Broward, in a
three-cornered race, led Sena :or Talia-
ferro by 50 votes. Remote precincts
are to be heard from, but these will
nearly all be for Broward, and it a
heavy vote is polled the Ex-Governor s
majority way reach 5000 or more.
Broward's greatest gain was made in
Tampa, where he gained over thou
sand, while Escambia gave him an in
crease of over 400.
Calhoun, Citrus, Holmes and Osceoa
have not yet been heard from. These
will all go for Broward, as will most
of the country precincts all through
the State which will yet report.
Based on figures that Broward re-
ceived in the first primary, his majority
in the State will be from 3, 600 to $500.
The returns from various points
throughout Florida, while incomplete,
are sufficient to give information as TO
the result in various counties.
With one or two exceptions, every
county in which Congressman Frank
Clark, Jes Laff Davis, and other hired
tools of the corporations, addressed
the people, in the interests of Senator
TaliaferrO, Mr.. Broward made surpris-
ing gains. In HillsbOrough county he
gained thousand votes; in Duval
county six hundred, and in Polk coun-
ty, where they know Frank Clark.
Broward gained two hundred

Banker Is Guilty.


COLFAx-Guilty of embezzlement
was the jury's verdict in the case
against H. M. Boone, ex-State Senator,
ex-State Bank Examiner and ex-presi-
dent of the Palouse State Bank of this
city.
For twelve days the case had been
before the Whitman County Court and
the Jury was but slightly over an hour
agreeing on its verdict. The amount
OF embezzlement charged in the COM
plant on which Boone was convicted
is 10000, but additional shortages in
the books of the bank are said to
make the sum lost by the bank $22,-
900.
On hearing the verdict Boone was
assisted from the court room by
friends. His wife is Frustrated. Judge
Garfield fixed the bonds at $4,000,
which were furnished. Motion was
made for a new trial.
The case was the most exciting ever
heard in Whitman County. Sixty-fve
bank books were admitted as exhibits.
Two attorneys assisted the prosecu-
ton for the State, three assisting
Boone for the defense.
