Favorable action on the Federal regis
tration automobile bill at an early date
is confidently expected by the AUTOMOBILE
lists of the country as the result of the
presentation of the merits Of the bill be-
fore the delegates in Washington at the
recent legislative convention OF the Amer
lean Automobile Association. The en-
couraging feature IN this respect is due
to the keen interest shown In the reason
abIeness OF the bill by the members of
the Committee on Interstate and Foreign
Commerce, before whom the hearing was
held on the last day Of the convention.
Several of the members expressed them
selves as heartily in favor Of the provi-
sions of the BILL recognizing its justice
toward automobiles of the country and
the benefits that Il would naturally con-
fer not only upon tourists, but 10 the in
dustry at large.
While favorable action in Congress IS,
therefore. reliably expected, another bene-
fetal result of the legislative convention
VIII be the wider acceptance by various
State legislatures of tie uniform State
motor vehicle bill as drafted by the legis-
lative committee OF the A. A. A., the
more important provisions Of which have
elready been incorporated into the auto
mobile laws Of over a dozen States
AS expressing the sentiment of the dele
gates attending the recent legislative con-
vention, among whom were represent
atives of governors from States extend
ing from the Atlantic to the Pacific and
from the Gulf of Mexico to the Great

unanimously adopted advocating the pas

SHERIDAN TO COMPETE
FOR ALL-ROUND HONORS
Big CeIt Says He viii Find Wor-
thy Opponent in Joe
Horner

NEW, YORK, July 29.-Martin Sher-
idan of the Irish-American Athletic
club has started active training for the
annual all-around championship of the
Amateur Athletic union, which is
scheduled to take place at Chicago the
latter part of next month.
The big champion was undecided for
some time as to whether he would
enter the events this year, but his
friends prevailed on him to do so, and
he has now announced that he will
compete. Sheridan says that he is
really in no condition to enter the con-
test, as he has not trained for months,
so that he will have his work cut out
for him If he desires to again carry
off the honors.
If Joe Horner, the Michigan star,
gets back from Europe in time to com
pete in the event, Sheridan believes he
will be up against the best all-around
athlete he has ever met. Horner Is not
only star shot putter and all-around
weight man, but he is also one of the
best hurdlers and sprinters in the
country. Ellis H. Clark, the million
aire athlete of Boston, will also be on
deck and try to win the event again.
The only man who consistently defeat
ed Clark In the '90s was Sheridan.

SANTA BARBARA PLANNING
FOR GREAT REGATTA WEEK

SANTA BARBARA, July 29.-Nearly
all of the yachts that were here two
years ago and many others that have
never raced in local waters will come
for the Santa Barbara regatta August
Is to 20. Algy Best, chairman of the
regatta copnmittee of the South Coast
Yacht club, arrived at the Potter dur
ing the week for a conference with the
committee of the Santa Barbara Yacht
club. In addition to the speediest
sloops, yawls, schooners and power
boats of the South Coast club at San
Pedro, Best said several entries had
been received from the Sunset club of
Long Beach, a new organization that
has become an important factor in the
South Pacific coast yachting affairs.
Best stated the yachtsmen at San
Pedro are enthusiastic for the prospects
of weeks racing at Santa Barbara,
with the many social affairs on land
and on board the yachts which always
accompany regatta week here.
Preparations for the golf tournament
that is to be held at about the same
time as the regatta August 13 to 16, are
proceeding apace, and is the incentive
for very keen practice on the links
Monday the San Francisco. golf en-
thusiasts held the first of a series of
tournament to be given in preparation

golf sweepstakes played without a
handicap. The winners who made a

.P|NCHOT SUMMARIZES
CONSERVATION PROGRESS

WASHINGTON, July 29.-"More
than one avenue to the monopolistic
grabbing of the peoples property has
been closed, but much still remains
to Re DONE" declares Clifford Pinchot,
the former forester, and now president
of the National Conservation associa-
tion, in a bulletin addressed to the
members of the association today,
summarizing the progress of conserva-
ton measures in the last session of
congress.
I'm spite of all opposition" the for
mer forester asserts, "the principles
fer which we stand have been enacted
into law in a considerable number of
cases and are represented in many
bills still awaiting action"
Criticising the interior department in
regard to the development of water
power, Mr.. Pinchot said:
"It is unfortunate that the interior
department has absolutely refused to
approve rights of way for municipal
water supply, irrigation and water
power wherever the lands affected are
believed to be valuable for water pow
er. This policy has continued for a
year past. 1t amounts to the absolute
stopping of water power development
throughout the arid west, and has
done must to create toally false con-
ceptions of conservation in that region.
The forest service has wisely rejected
the proposals of the interior depart
ment looking to the establishment of
the same policy in national forests"

RACKET STARS PREPARE
FOR COMING TOURNEY
Champion of Mexico Is Looked on
as Contender for the
Highest HonorS

The Virginia courts have been occu-
pied from dawn until evening with the
preliminary practice for next week s
tournament and interest in the coming
event is at high tension. Winfred
Mace, the present holder of the South
ern California honors, was on the
courts yesterday afternoon, giving two
of the entrants to the women's events,
Miss Josephine Struve and Miss Fanny
Brown, some hard practice. Mace Is in
first-class fettle for the work of his
life.
Charlie and Harry Rogers were
among the beach court players yester-
day and the two expect to make an
even better showing than in the Pa
cific statets doubles affair." when they
annexed a set from the international
lists, Mclaughlin and Long. Charlie Is
playing with more confidence than in
the last tourney and may be counted
in the running for first place honors
in the singles as we'll as in the paired
event
Ward Dawson, Jack Duncan, Hal
Braly, Simpson Sinsabaugh and Nat
Browne have been daily visitors at the
Mt. Washington courts and have been
putting in some hard nte-tournament
drill for their appearance in the Vir-
ginia ring. Dawson is playing bet
ter single game than Browne this year
and may be counted on to press the
veterans to their best. He is looked on
as the most probable holder of the cup
for the coming year and unless he
develops some kind of relapse should
live UP to the expectations of his nu-
merous following.
The announcement of the entry or
Claude Butlin, the crack Old Mexico
racket star, has caused a furry in the
dope of the experts and there is no
one who is able to determine how he
will come out in the final result. His
defeat of Browne in the third round
of the Mexico Country club tourna-
ment last year by the straight set
method, 6-3, GA, shows that if in form
he will be a formidable and serious
contender for the title. Browne is con-
sidered on a par with any of the en-
tries in the. coming weeks tourney
and Butlin should make a good try If
he does not succeed in landing first
honors.
There will be a meeting of the COM
.mittee in charge of the play this
evening for the purpose of making
the drawings and arranging plans for
the first days play.

MANY FIGHT FOREST
FIRES TO SAVE TOWN

SPOKANE, Wash, July 29.-Nearly
100 men are fighting to save the thriV-
ing mining town of Wardner, Idaho.
The forest fire has eaten it's way to-
ward the town and only mile and a
half of heavily timbered hill inter-
venes. Dispatches from Wallace,

inconceivable damage to timber and
other property in the district Women
are aiding the men in fire fighting on
Pine creek, Men are dropping at their
work exhausted and the wives of the
homesteaders are doing what they can
to check the flames.
James Betterton and family are re-
ported to have been living in a mine
tunnel for two days unable to venture
out on account of the fire A search
ing party will go there as soon as the
men can be spared.
On Pine creek back-firing is being

". F. NJ. DEFEATS
REFERENDUM VOTE
Hint Proposed Change Primarily
for Purpose of Preventing
Meyers Reelection
ASSOCIATED Press)

DENVER, Colo, July 29.-The West
ern Federation of Miners today voted
down a proposition to elect officers by
referendum vote. 1t was hinted that
the proposed change was primarily for
the purpose of defeating President
Charles H. Meyer for reelection. The
scheme was to have the convention
nominate two candidates for the posi-
ton and submit their names to the
unions for vote as to choice. The one
receiving the highest vote was to be
declared president by the executive
board In the meantime Meyer would
continue in the office until announce
ment of the unions choice was made
The proposition made in the form of
a resolution was overwhelmingly de-
feated
The convention also voted an assess
ment against each member of one
shifts pay for the organiza< Sn fund.
The total to be realized in this way
is estimated at $2S0,000.
President Meyer stated today that
the convention would likely conclude
business, with the election of officers,
Tuesday next. AS there is no opposi-
tion to Meyer at present, 1t seems GER
tain he will be elected for the ninth
consecutive time.

LAD CONFESSEs CRIME;
SURRENDERs TO POLICE

Emaciated and suffering from an in
durable malady, Joseph Nemoiten, Is
years old, walked into the central po-
lice station last night, surrendered
himself to Detective James Hosick and
asked to be locked up for embezzle-
ment The lad declared he had stolen
$40 that had been entrusted to his
care and that a Russian coin, which
had been blessed by a priest of the
Russian Catholic faith, brought him
misfortune and unrest.
According to the story of the young
man, he is the son of Joshua Nemoiten,
proprietor of Russian bath estab
lishment at rs First street, Passaic,
N. j. On the night of December l,
1909, so the lad stated, he was left in
charge of the place and was entrusted
with $170 by two Russian customers.
He took the money and fled.
In the purse containing the money
was a Russian copper coin, a pocket
piece such as are blessed by priests.
To this coin young Nemoiten attributes
his mishaps since he left New Jersey.
Nemoiten was locked up in the city
Jail and the detectives have tele-
graphed the Passaic authorities for
instructions.

MILITIA FAILS To
QUIET STRIKERS
Street Car Riots Break Out Anew
with Arrival of the Ohio
National Guard
ASSOCIATED Press)

COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 29.-The
presence of three regiments of the
Ohio National guard did not tnttmi-
date Columbus rioters and tonight
disturbances proved the worst since
the car strike began. A score of I'M
ported employees of the Columbus Rail
way & Light company were injured
by stones bricks and other missiles and
by 10 o'clock car service, which had
been resumed at 1870 following the re-
turn at noon of Governor Harmon to
the city, was suspended and cars were
taken to the barns for the night.
Mayor Marshall late tonight said he
was disappointed in the aid lent by the
troops. Promptly on his arrival Gov
ernor Harmon had declared that the
militia could not be used for police
duty. He declared they should remain
in their camps unless summoned to
points where rioting broke out. When
nightfall came, the union sympathizers
began attacks on cars in all sections
of the city. They defled the police as
they had done on previous nights.
AS they did not gather in crowds,
there were, with two exceptions, no
'mobs to disperse. Before troops could
be summoned cars had been stonned
and the guilty persons had made their
escape.
Notable exceptions We're on the
north side, where after crews had been
driven from cars and beaten, threats
were made to overturn and demolish
the cars. Battery G of Columbus ar
rived in time to drive the people into
their homes with riot clubs.
Retail merchants will call on Gov
ernor Harmon tomorrow to summon
the legislature in special session to
provide a compulsory arbitration law.
City Solicitor E. l.. Weinland indi-
Gated in a statement today that unless
a settlement was arrived at soon he
would act on petitions filed urging him
to ask the courts to appoint receiver
to manage the street railway so as to
secure service.
Gen. McMacken, commanding the
1000 troops of the Ohio national guard
here in the street car strike, Will give
out information regarding the dis
position of the troops and the plans to
quell further rioting in case trouble
breaks out.
The plans OF the military authorities
are to be kept secret. Hundreds or
citizens packed about the state house
grounds to watch the troops prepare
for the days duties after cooking their
breakfast. No car will be run until
after Governor Harmon arrives from
Michigan, about II o'clock, and none
may be run today or tonight. There
has been no trouble today

NEGRO MURDERS MAN HE
CLAIMS STOLE HIS WIFE

Angered because he believed his wife
was persuaded to leave him because
of her love for John Allen, negro
hod carrier of 1749 West Thirty-fifth
place, Aaron Grafton, 60 years old, a
negro and a former bronco buster,
living nerr Thirty-sixth street and
Denker avenue, went to the home of
Allen last night and shot the latter
through the heart after a short alter
cation in the yard of the dead man.
Grafton was captured four hours after
the murder at Arlington avenue and
Adams street. He claims he shot in
self-defense.
Grafton and his wife have been living
apart for several months. The Grafton
woman was friendly with Allen and
went to live in a small house in the
rear of the house where Allen lived.
Shortly after 8 o'clock last night
Grafton went to the home of his wife
for the purpose of persuading her to
return to him, it is believed. Allen
went out in the yard and the men met
in a driveway. A shot ran out and
Allen fell dead. Grafton ran away.
