BUGS AND CHAMP
MAY CALL IT OFF
Injuries to Players and Calls of
Majors Make Series Here
ncertain.

DANVfLLE, VA. September lit
seems that there is little probability
of post season series in Richmond
between the Danville Bugs and the
Roanoke Tigers. Injuries to several
OF the best players OF the Bugs has
weakened the club so that they would
not be able to put a strong aggrega-
tion in the field against the Champs
A series now would not bring out the
same team that has won the pennanr
for the Bugs.
Rickert will not be able to play for
some time on account OF a sprained
wrest and could not be in the series.
Murray is out with a ruptured blood
vessel In the arm, Laughlin is out
with a sprained ankle.
Besides this. Bussey and Priest
have TO leave the team and report
TO the big league teams who have
bought them. Bussey goes to Wash
ington at once and Priest goes to the
New oYrk Yankees.
The Champs are ready enough to
play but II may be that several Of
their players will also have to leave
at once to join the majors who have
either purchased or drafted them
In view of these conditions 1t is
likely that the Bugs will rest on their
laurels and take II for granted that
they have a stronger club than the
Champs.

NEW YORK, Sept. THE reports
of insurgent victories all along the
line yesterday threw a bomb into the
old guard camp to-day and there was
a hurried rush of the anti Roosevelt
leaders to this city for a conference.
William Barnes. Jr.. was one of the
first to arrive. and he hurried at once
TO State headquarters. where Chair
man Timothy L. Woodruff was walt
ing. They were closeted together
nearly all day.
For the first time since the fight for
control of the republican party was
begun. Barnes was perturbed to-day.
Asked whether he cared to comment
on the returns from Wisconsin, Michi-
gan or some of the other eenters of
insurgent strength. he threw up both
hands and exclaimed;
Now please. please don't bother

HALL. ST, PAUL. Sept THE as
Tendency in the National Conservation
Congress of Federal control over State
control was celebrated at many points
In to-day's program. With the West
ern governors who favored State con-
troll absent, the session was a love
feast of Federal conssrvationists.
The climax came in the form of a
tribute to Clifford Pinchot, who stood
with bowed head while 1000 dele
gates cheered. waved handkerchiefs
and shouted. when Senator Albert
Beveridge. In his address, mentioned
the name Of Pinchot.
The announcement OF the names of
the resolutions committee brought
fourth cheers when Ii was known that
only seven States OF the forty-sevep
had placed State control delegates on
the committee. The Federal conser-
vationists. under George Pardee. for
mer governor OF California, as chair
man. had absolute control of the COM
mittee.

TAKE NO ACTION
IN BLUES MATTER
No Court viii Be Appointed Tn
til October and Probably
Not Then.

Present indications are that the
board of examination asked for by
Major f.. w. Bowles, commanding the
Blues battalion. to inquire into the
military fitness of Captain Thomas b.
Mcdowell. of Company A. will not be
appointed. and that the organization
will be forced to settle its internal diff
ficulties and misunderstanding as
best II can.
Governor Mann. after a conference
with Acknowledgement w. w. Sale,
held Tuesday evening. decided TO take
no action whatsoever until some time
in October, when General Sale Will re-
turn from his vacation. Following
the conference the Acknowledgement
left for Rockingham county, where
he is resting from the duties of his
office.
Remain in Statu Quo.
Governor Mann declared Wednes-
day morning that the matter would
be allowed to remain In statu. quo.
Nothing would be done until after the
return OF the Acknowledgement.
AS the strife which has developed
among the Blues is not strictly of mill
tary origin and motive, 1t Is believed
that no military board or court will
be designated to settle 1t. but that the
differences will have to be adjusted
by the officers and men themselves.
