NOW DECLARED
in HONDURAS
BY Associated Press.

WASHINGTON Nov. 3-Martial
law has been declared in Honduras
as direct result of the revolt of
General Jose Valladaes, the deposed
commandment of Amalpa, against
the government. according to cable
dispatches to the state department
from Minister McCreery at Teguci-
galpa. The port Of Amalpa has
been closed and the island is in a
state of siege.
The United States gunboat
Princeton is at Amalpa ready to
take a hand in the revolution at
the first sign of hostilities toward
foreigners or their interests. Pres
ident Davila is preparing to send an
armed force against Valladares. In
the event of the governments fail
ure to restore order the United

THE BULL PEN. TACTICS OF
COLORADO.
Senator T. l.. Oddie, now repub-
lican candidate for governor, OPP
posed these suggestions on the
grounds that they would carry with
them authority for the establish
ment of bull PEN in Nevada,
that it was not his idea that anyone
should be punished, but that a bill
should be drafted for the purpose
of preserving the peace and dignity
of Nevada without working hard
ship on anyone.
Sprague was finally eliminated
from the discussion, eliminated
quietly but nevertheless firmly, on
the plea that the committee had
matters to discuss which would not
permit of the presence of outsiders
in the room without giving cause
Tor other interested persons to de-
/ mand admission
| To be more exact, Charles S.
Sprague, unlimited, apeared at the
committee room, forced himself and
his anti-union ideas on the COM
mittee, and. after making himself
obnoxious generally, was politely Or
dered from the room
Charles S. Sprague is the man

for their suffrage, and claiming that

LAST EVENING

A few campaign orators" turned
loose by the Dickerson organization,
and posing as democrats and low
ers of good government, hit the
camp some time yesterday, and with
a few of the chosen" foregathered
at Miners Exchange hall last night.
Among the number scheduled to
participate in the gabfest were
..High-Collar Charley" Sprague, Joe
Farnsworth, George Brodigan and
Sam Belford.
Now, as may be readily seen
from the lineup, there was some
foggy atmosphere generated.
The majority of the remarks
made by the Webster-browed
Charles were in defense of the prin'
ciples of their peculiar brand Of
democracy, while the remainder
we're of the big ''I' type.
Joe Farnsworth, candidate fol
the Office of state printer, addressed
his hearers briefly, asking the vot
ers of this section for their suf
frage in the coming election.
Sam Belford, who is traveini

over the state. The cleo
tion of Oddie is now conceded by
the democrats up north, in spite Of
the work that has been done to in
jure his standing. For the last ten
days the politicians from the dem
ocratic headquarters, have been
sending out word to their follow
ers and henchmen, to give up the
fight for the election of Pittman,
Sprague and others ON the demo-
cratic ticket, and concentrate all
Iorces to defeat Oddie at any cost.
The attacks and dirty stories circu-
lated have all been explained to the
satisfaction of the voters, and indi-
cations point to a substantial vic
tory for Oddie. Indeed, Dickerson's
defeat can be attributed to the ac-
tions of Charles S. Sprague, demo
cratic candidate for congress.

Charles S. Sprague, democratic
candidate for congress and dictator
of the policies of the Goldfield
News, running for Office ON the as
sertion that he is friendly to or
ganized labor and pointing with
pride to his record, has apparently
forgotten the events of the memor-
able extraordinary session of the
Nevada state legislature, convened
by Governor John Sparks in Janu-
airy, 1908. ).
At that time Sprague, though not
officially designated to represent
any portion of the state of Nevada,
appeared before the joint committee
of twenty selected to Investigate the
alleged conditions in Goldfield and
to formulate methods to control the
same. Sprague came unasked, and
expressed desire to assist the COM
mittee in it's work.
Courtesy permitted him to re-
main and thereafter he proffered
suggestions SO radical in their ma
ture that Senator Boyd finally ap

CARS LOST I'M BAD LANDS
One Goes Up in Flames in Run
Around Long Island,

Forty-six OF the fifty cars that started
out so gayly in the around Long Island
automobile ~un Yesterday morning at s
o'clock from Madison Square Park in this
city quartered last night at Shelter Island.
OF the other four three we're stalled in
the sands and amid the scrub oaks some
where near Southampton. while one had
expired in a burst of fame that created
considerable CONSERVATION for some time.
The luckless cars that were stalled ap-
peared to have lost the track. Searching
parties with teams of horses were out look
ing for the cars last night, but without
finding any traces of them. The scrub oaks
that waste of sand cover miles
of territory, and, like a labyrinth. blind
roads lead into their depths. and there
many an unfortunate automobilist has be-
fore this lost his way. Those at Shelter
Island expect 10 hear from the lost ones
this morning and may wait for them to
come up.
So far the surviving cars have expert
enced a most successful trip. From Mad
fson Square Park the journey was along
the South Shore Road of Long Island.
Luncheon at Three Mile River allowed of
pleasant stop. Then it was on TO Montauk
Light over the bad lands. On the way
back across the sands the three cars lost
their way. The others reached Shelter ISL
and with everything in splendid condition.

TIGERS FACE OLD STARS BOUT GOES TWO ROUNDS
Goodman Knocks Out Joe BedeII
in Double Quick Time.

Jack Goodman, of the West Side knocked
out Joe BedeIl, the Brooklyn lightweight.
with right hook to the jaw in the second
round of a scheduled ten-round bout at
the Fairmont Athletic Club OF The Bronx
last night.
The clubroonns were filed with one of the
biggest crowds of the season, scarcely a
single chair in the entire building being
unoccupied-
There was little to chose between the lads
physically. They were about of the same
height, and both weighed in at I35 pounds.
Bedell recently boxed Harlem" Tommy
Murphy a hard ten-round bout, Murphy
having only hair line shade the better of
it, and then took the much heralded Cali
fornia boxer. Frank Picato. into camp.
Goodman has been winning his recent
bouts with machine like regularity, and
has been demanding a match with Murphy,
which the latter has steadfastly refused
upon one ground or the other.
From the outset it was easily seen that
BedeII was coping with an adversary who
completely outcIassed him Goodman
danced in and around, forcing him to make
false leads and leave wide openings, Of
which Goodman neevr failed to take ad-
vantage. He worked a short, snappy left
BedelTs nose, and kept the latter's head
swapping back like shuttlecock.
Bedelrs eye for distance was poor, TO say
the least, and most of the few leads he
made fell short Goodman, on the other
hand, never made a false move. He picked
his openings and sent in his punches clean
and hard.
The end came after about two minutes
of boxing in the second round Goodman
polled his left into BedelI's face time and
again without a return and then shifted his
attack to the latter's body. Bedell lswered
his guard for a fraction of a second only,
but it was fatal Goodman whipped over
a left hook and BedeIl went down fCS four
seconds.
He rose to his feet but ran into a right
that sent him down for similar count
Bedell was IN desperate straits. but he
tried to fight back Goodman then meas
ured the distance and shot over a terrific
right cross counter and Bedell fell to the
mat. where he was counted out by the RET

Six Princeton Captains Hold
Varsity Nine to Tie.
rBv Telesraph to The tribune.


Princeton. n. J., June 14.-In a game full
of interest a baseball team composed OF old
Princeton stars held the Princeton varsity
to a tie score this afternoon. The alumni
nine contained six former captains OF
Princeton teams. They were Randy
Sides, Of last years nine; Dutch" Meier,
now coach of the varsity; Sammy Reid,
whose playing at shortstop is still talked
of at Princeton; Cosgrave, Welles and
Cap Kafer. all of them stars in their
time.
UnderhilI did the twirling for the grads" -
while the varsity used all three of its
pitchers. Steve White started the game,
but was not in his usual form. allowing
two hits in the second inning, which,
coupled with an error and a passed ball.
netted three runs. Greenbaum and Woodle,
who pitched out the game, could not be
touched, and only two men reached second
base after the second inning.
The varsity players made only six hits
off Underhill. Sterrett and Warwick led
the batting, with two hits each. Meier
also had his eye on the ball, getting two
pretty singles.

SUPERBAS TAKE A TURN
Hold st. Louis Off While Scoring
Two Runs.
"NAP" FUCKER AT HIS BEST
Tightens Up When Hard Pressed
and Nips a Rally in Ninth
Inning.

Nap Rucker who has few equals in the
box when at his best, pitched the Superbas
10 victory over St. Louis at Washington
Park. Brooklyn, yesterday, and incidentally
spread a coat of whitewash over Roger
Bresnahan and his pets. The score was
TO Q, but enough opportunities were
wasted to have changed the whole COM
pleKion of the game.
AS matter of fact the visitors made
seven hits to six for the Superbas. but
Rucker was strong in pinChes and struck
out the opposing batsmen when most
needed. This was particularly true in the
ninth inning, when the willy Bresnahan
sent in his right-handed batters in an
effort to start rally.
Two men were out before things began
to look dangerous, but when Bresnahan
walked and Hauser singled to centre field
Rucker found himself in something of a
hole, especially with Mowrey up, who pre-
viously had lined out two-bagger The
big left-hander was equal to the emergency,
however and quickly retired the batsman
on strikes.
Lush pitched six innings for St Louis
and was found for only five hits. Harmon,
who succeeded him. held the Superbas at
bay. but the damage had been done.
Lush was responsible for the first run
scored by Brooklyn, as Wheat drew a free
pass, went down to second on a Hild
pitch and scored when Hummel singled
This was in the first inning. Brooklyn's
other run came in the fourth frame
Lennox walked, but was forced at second
on Bresnahans throw to second of David
sons bunt McElveen then came along
with a single. which sent Davidson TO
third, and the latter scored a moment
later on Bergens long sacrifice fly to
Evans
Bresnahan caught part of the game, but
later went TO left field to let Phelps handle
Harmon's curves.
The Chicago Cubs will be in Brooklyn
to-day. and the Superbas are counting on
making a better stand against the league
leaders than the Giants. The fans on
this side of the bridge are hoping that the
Superbas are not counting without their
host.
