Col. A. w. Hamilton, for many years
Judge at Los Angeles race meetings
and still a director in the Los Angeles
Racing association, left last evening
for San Francisco for a business trip
that will require about a week. He
will return to Los Angeles some time
next week.
The winner of the Monte Attell-
frankie Conley fight, that will be
staged next Tuesday afternoon, has
been matched with Danny Webster for
a March date. 1t will depend upon the
wishes of the fighters as to the dis
tance and the location of the scrap.
Mike Kutchos ran up against a good
sized snag Tuesday night at Maricopa
when he tried to trim Red Corbett Of
san Diego. Corbett put the kibosh on
to him, all right, and did the job so
thoroughly that there was much JUS
tification in the action of the referee
in stopping the bout to save the Greek
champion from useless beating.
That was a handsome tribute which
the American league magnates paid t9
Ban Johnson, president of the league,
yesterday. They reelected him and
made his term of office expire twenty
years hence, when the agreement be-
tween the clubs in that organization
expires. In addition. they raised his
salary from $4,000 to $4,000, prac-
tically making him a present OF S20O,-
600. Johnson's firm hand has guided
the American league through the
stormy days which beset it during the
first year of its existence, and he
forced the National league to make
terms with his league. Charlie Comis-
kew was at the head of the movement.
Gil Mead, Frankie Harris and Jimmy
Brennan left last evening for Frisco
TO stay until after the Nelson Wolgast
fight. They took along bank rolls to
bet on the Dutchman, too. Lon Hill
will follow tonight. Mead takes Har,

Baltimore Especially There will
be no strike on the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad. An agreement on
the wages AMI service conditions con-
troversy, which has been the sub
ject OF mediation by DIR. Charles r.
Neill and Judge Martin A. Knapp,
was reached shortly before midnight.
Both sides signed the new agree
ment, which had been prepared by
DR.. Neill, and strike was averted.

cessions were granted, but the presi-
dents of the two organizations in
volved, Messrs. A. B. Garretson. of
the conductors union, and w. G..
Lee, CT the trainmen's organization,
said that, while the agreement did
not grant all that they asked in
their original proposition. yet it gave
important increases to the men.
The official announcement of the
result given out by Messrs. Garrett
son and Lee, of the trainmen's
unions, was as follows: s.

1 NEW GIBRALTAR
At MANGA BAY
COrregidor Island Prepared For
Long Siege.
COMPLETE PLAN Of PERFECT DEFENSE.
To Be Prepared Far War In The
Pacific The Government Has
Made This Island As Impreg-
nable AS Possible. So That 1t May
Be A Place OF Refuge For Women
And Children Should The Philip
pines Be Attacked.

/ Washington. d G. Especially
Preparedness on the Pacific is the
watchword of the War Department,
and its most striking expression is
the creation of new Gibraltar in
the Philippines.
Experts specializing as to the pos
sibility of war, even in the remote
future, have agreed that the frst
understanding of an enemy in the
Pacific would be to seize the Philip
pines and Hawaii This seems also
to have been the Judgment of Of
ficials of the War Department, and
they have met the situation, SO far
as the Philippines are concerned, by
constructing at the entrance to Ma
Mia Bay a stronghold believed to
be able to withstand any force.
Corregidor Island has been put in
a state of perfect defense and pro-
visioned for a possible siege of three
years. Four 10-inch guns protect
the sea approaches. and batteries of
rapid-fire guns now cover every land
ing place. 1t is the purpose of the
government to place the entire mill
tary force in the islands, together
the island at the first sign Of trouble.
Artesian wells have been sunk at
different places on the precipitous is
land, giving an adequate water sup
ply, and huge tanks have been COM
pleted at high points. insuring gray,
ity pressure for fighting fire. At
protected points warehouses have
been erected for the three years
supply OF food already accumulated
there.
The plan evolved by the military
authorities in the event of war is to
abandon every military post in the
archipelago. destroying all property
which would be. of service to an
enemy and to transfer all the troops
and resident Americans, together
with the government treasure, to the
island and await there the coming
of relief force.
Corregidor Island is approximately
four miles in length and a mile and
q half wide at the broadest point.
1t is of volcanic formation and q
natural fortress.
1t was learned that the unusual
secrecy observed in the recent test of
the new 14-inch naval gun at Sandy
Hook was not imposed through the
desire to guard from publicity the
effectiveness of the big gun, but was
due to the fact that the target used
was built of the secretly prepared
concrete which is being used in the
defense of Corregidor and the neigh
boring Island of Ell Fraille.
The Japanese ordnance officers
have designed 14-inch gun which
is almost an exact replica of the
gun tested at Sandy Hook, and it
was. desirable to ascertain the effect
OF the fire from this powerful gun
on the material being used in the
battery emplacements of the de-
fenses OF our island possessions. 1t
is reported that the new material
withstood the fire directed against
it most satisfactorily.

McGann left Pittsburg going to
Wellsburg, w. Va, by the Panhandle
train, which he left at that point
and crossed the Ohio River in a
boat to be met by Pommering, who
had a buggy in which they were to
carry the money to the Dexter mine,
about two miles back from the Wv
er.
The pair had passed an old school
house far from any other house and
were about to enter a wood when
some men, who had apparently been
hiding behind the sehoolhouse, ran
after them and, springing lightly
into the back of the buggy. began
beating them over the head with
heavy hand billies.
Mccain says Pommering's skull
was evidently crushed at the first
blow, for. with a moan, he sank in
to the bottom of the buggy, and at
that moment Mccain was also
knocked to his knees by a blow on
the head Mccain lost conscious
ness for time and when he came
to he was lying by the side of the
road with Pommering some yards
away, apparently dead.

money satchel we're gone. Mccain,
on his hands and knees crawled to

skull, that one of his eyes had been
knocked out entirely. Mccain, too,

Washington. D. c. Especially ~
The Supreme Court affirmed the
Judgment Of the North Dakota SUI
preme Court enjoining the Northern
Faeific, Great Northern and other
roads from charging higher rates for
the transportation of coal within the
state than prescribed by North Da-
hota law. The Supreme Court did
did not pass upon the question of
whether the rates were confiscatory.
The evidence upon that point, the
court said, was, not clear, and while
the Judgment. of the State Supreme
Court would stand, the roads could
bring another suit If the rate could
be shown to be confiscatory.
