GLIDDEN RACERS ARE BEHIND
Mitchell Pathfinders Lose Time
as Result OF Acci-
dents.

Drowned with the tan of a dozen states
pathfinding car arrived in Omaha at noon
Friday, after a mornings run from Lin
coin, where they camped all night after a
run from st. Joseph.
I'VE are many days behind our schedule, "
said Stewart DeKrafft who keeps the log
of the tour. I'm the first place we have
met with all sorts OF accidents trying to
stretch our rides into the night and be-
sides we have heightened the route from
the 200 miles which was originally mapped
out.
I'VE did not know that Lincoln and
Omaha were to be on the route when we
left home, but were informed by wire to
run to Lincoln from St. Joseph, as these
towns were to be included in the tour.
"Since leaving Texas we have struck the
best kinds of roads and weather and have
been able to bowl along about as fast as
we wished But before that time, in Arkan-
sas and Alabama and Mississippi the roads
were fright in places and we want to
forget them. At one place we were laid up
for five days by breaking down because we
hit a stump which was covered up in slushy
mud foot deep"
In the car when it arrived In Omaha were
Frank X. Zirbies, w. A. Krohn and Stew
art De Kraft. They are quartered al the
Rome and will leave for the east Saturday

King Decision stas5-
Fair One, Says
John Heydler
Secretary and Treasurer Of National
League Approves Action Despite
Johnson's Vote.

NEW YORK, April John Heydler,
secretary and treasurer of the National
league, who served on the National com
mission last year and is thoroughly familiar
with the Killing case, came out tonight with
a strong defense Of the recent action Of
the commission in reinstating the catcher
without Ban Johnson's approval.
I'm my opinion" says Heydler, the com
mission could not have ruled otherwise.
The alternative would have been to apply
the provisions of rule Al. which would prac-
tically have carried with IT a four years
suspension and the elimination Of Killing
from base ball, Rule 49, ! have always
held, was a measure directed specifically
against organized players joining outlaw
leagues. Had the commission officially
designated the Chicago emi-professional
league as an outlaw league prior to King s
temporary sffiliation with that organiza-
tlon then there would have been no re-
course but to impose the extreme penalty
on the player.
The finding is just and equitable and is
fair to the player Making its mandatory
on the player to return to Chicago and full
fill the last year of his three-year contract
at the figure he signed for Is splendid from
every angle of base ball law. 1 doubt II
the commission was divided on that par
tlcular point. It is the best part OF the
finding. II means that contract once
entered into, whether by the club on one
side or the player or manager on the other
must be respected and lived up to. This is
the meat of the decision and simply reiter-
ates the principle upon which organized
base ball is founded"

internal revenue receipts for the Nebraska
collection district fell off $16 459. 40 for the
month OF March, 1910, as compared with
the receipts for the corresponding month
of last year The receipts for the last
month were but $213 1880, while those for
the month of March 1909. were 1929, ,953 so.
There is no particular significance to the
decrease, being merely incidental to this
season of the year, the deficiency being
in the tax on spirits.
Navy Enlistments for IIarch-'The total
OF enlistments for the United States navy
at the Omaha recruiting station were only
fifteen during the month of March 1910
The applications for enstments closely
approximated 100, but as the quota for
service is about at its maximum only the
most desirable candidates for enlistment
were accepted There Is strong tendency
toward re-enlistments at this season OF the
year. and as these are at all times pre-
ferable, the Navy department is disposed
to accept only the very best material for
new enlistments.

applause.
O'Connor used Powell and Kinseu With
Knlifer back Of the plate. The locals
gathered four hits off Powell, which mate

only one hit was recorded against him.
Holland had Galgano, the Italian who
served Pueblo so well last year; Watson

Iowa Athletic
Board Makes
Two New Rules
Students Are Limited to Major Sports
and Number Of Men on Travel
ing Teams is Reduced.

IOWA CITY. April 1. - (spsoiaL)--
Iowas board In control Of athletics passed
two radical reforms at It's meeting this
week when II was voted 20 limit an athlete
TO two major sports and to cut down the
number OF the athletes who will he taken
on the trips Of the teams.
The action Of the board was not ex-
pected until next fall and came as sur
prise 1t is strictly in accord with the
sentiment expressed by Hon. James II.
Trewin chairman of the Board Of Educa-
ton. who surprised the state by coming
out flat-footedly against athletics In their
present form in toast before the law
alumni here In February.
The board is confident that this rule
will be OF great benefit, as every man
will be IN shape 10 give the best he has
during the time that he actually competes
Another advantage which Is expected to
result is the encouragement given to the
unknown athlete through the curtailment
OF the activities OF the star, The board
believes that In this way a more personal
interest toward Iowas athletics will be
built up among the students.
At present there are few athletes in the
university who will be affected by the
rule Stewart has consistently won his
rs" In foot ball. basket ball ana base
ball, but as the rule is not retroactive and
Stewards allotted time will be up at tht
end Of the base bail season. It will moi
affect him. Hyland will probably have
to give up either track or base ball mex
year.
The board has decided that the numbel

evening when members of the Des Moines
Commercial club, who were entertained
by the Omaha club, referred constantly to
this city as "Des Moines." On the theory
that every man thinks his own city the
best, the forgetfulness Of Des Moines
speakers was amusing and received as a
compliment.
In the Commercial club rooms the presi-
dent of the Des Moines Commercial club

O'Clock dinner The rooms were decorated
with palms, the finest electric pieces which
an enterprising company could install and
in this light among the palms and flowers,
the Des Moines visitor to the athletic
meet were given a real dinner.
The Des Moines Commercial club men
saw that every speaker was greeted with
song, that he might have time to
think of something to say" Mayor ]. c.
Dahlman of Omaha welcomed the guests
and President B. F. Kaufman of the
Des Moines club responded. Then came
a series Of five-minute addresses from
members of both clubs called by David
Cole of the Omaha club, who presided.
Among those who spoke were: c. C.
Rosewater, Omaha; II. l. Chase, Des
A W. Jefferis Omaha.
Mr.. McVicar made a serious address
speaking of Omaha's spirit being strong
but it's flesh weak to have an ideal city
because, he thought, the system of gov
ernment wrong and, with Mayor Dahlman
at his left, he said it was not the fault
of the administration that Omaha had
the reputation Of having dirty streets, II
was the fault of the system which made
it necessary to secure petitions and &c
through a lot of red tape before the streets
could be put into such a condition as tc
make it possible to keep them in the con
dition an enterprising city would want
them.
