St. Louis. Oct. 10-Sporting writer's here
charge that the ST Louis Browns, OF the
American League, yesterday allowed La
i,.ia. OF The Cleveland team, 10 obtain the
hits which 50 helped his batting average.
The object of this, it is charged was to
enable him to score more hits during the
season than were credited to Cobb. OF De-
trot.
The first time up he hit a long liner to
centre field that Melted him three bases
while six other times he hunted down the
third base line and either beat Corrden's
throw TO first or else Corridor did not
throw Another time Lajoie grounded to
Wallace who threw wild to first base
while once he hunted to Corriden, who field
ed it. but tossed wide to first. Lajoie was
credited with a sacrifice hit on this oc-
casion.
President Hedges of the St Louis team
refused to discuss the playing of his men.
It was necessary for Lajoie to make eight
hits in order to pass Cobb.
-'Lajoie outguessed u.s." said OConnor,
manager of the St. Louis team. I'VE fig
ured he did not have the nerve to hunt
every time. He beat us at our own game.
/ viii not send any of my players in to
play up close TO Laioie when he tries to
hunt"
In explaining his playing. Lajoie, in
telegram sent to ST. Louis newspaper to-
day from Cincinnati, said:
After I made my first hit, a clean drive
to centre for three bases. the St Louis
men played deep. expecting me to pound
the ball out every time 1 fooled them right
along The pitchers did their best to de-
ceiye me- I am certain"
Detroit Oct. 10.-Frank ]. Navin, presi-
dent of the Detroit club Of the American
League, declared to-day that the hitting of
Lajoie in St. Louis On Sunday, when he
made eight nits in eight times at bat, was
suspicious.
1T looked like a raw deal he said. but
I don't know whether or not the league will
take action. The league can throw out
games for justifabIe reasons.
u think when the averages are given out
it will be found that Cobb is still the
leader. At least, hope so"
President Navin also stated that the
leagues probably will take action toward
the elimination of prizes and bonuses for
players.
These prizes declared Mr. Naviu, only
serve to create dissension on team

BOX TEN ROUNDS TO DRAW
Sullivan and Nelson Show Little Skill
at Irish American Club

Paddy Sullivan. the rugged welterweight
OF the West Side, and Battling Jack"
Nelson boxed a ten-round draw at the
rish-American Athletic Club last night
The bout was slow and uninterestlng. as
both men knew little of the finer points OF
the game and simply waded in, taking
whatever punishment came their way, in
the hope OF putting over "a telling punch
which might result in quick victory. OF
this, however, there was little danger, as
the gloves We're large aud soft ana the men
were in good condition.
In the second round Sullivan planted ii
heavy right on mis- opponents jaw and sent
him Keeling. while In the sixth round the
Danish lad sank his left into Salliyan's
solar plexus and knocked him across the
ring. sullivan claimed a foul. but the ref
cree refused to allow it

PLACE TO WRITE MUSIC
MORGAN GIVES $4,000 CASTLE
TO COMPOSER.
Believes Homer A. Norris Can Do
Better if Relieved of
Daily Grind.

NEW YORK, July 23.-High ON crae
of the Orange mountains, not far from
the Hartman estate at Arden, ]. Pier.
pont Morgan is building a gray stone
castle in miniature. Both for the spirit in
which it was conceived and the manner
in which it is being carried out, it is.
perhaps, without counterpart.
Mr.. Morgan is not only a connoisseur in
the fine arts, but discriminating anna
teur of music. For many years he has
been a close personal friend of Homer
A. Norris, the composer, who is the or
ganist of st. Georges Episcopal Church
in Stuyvesant Square. New York, of
which Mr.. Morgan is senior warden.
Mr.. Morgan believes that free from
the daily grind of city life Mr.. Norris
can compose better music than in his
town studio. In proof of his belief, he is
building for the composer a $4,000 re-
treat in the forest.
The money is MI. Morgan's. The plans
are Mr.. Norris.
Only weatherbeaten stone will be used,
and that on the outside will be moss
grown. When completed the dwelling will
look like a continuation of the bluff on
which 1t is erected.
Mr.. Norris came here from Boston and
has been organist of St. Georges seven
years.

DROWN IN THE RARTAN
TWO SISTERS AND THEIR ES-
CORT OVERCOME BY CURRENT.
Party Had Been Camping and Went
for an Afternoon Swim in
the River.

NEW BRUNSWICK, n. j., Jply %
The swift and treacherous undercurrents
of the Raritan river sucked down two
young sisters and their escort to their
death and utterly exhausted a third
young girl of the party this afternoon.
The dead:
Anna Hill, twenty-one years old. High

The young people were camping out
near here, and rowed from shore today
for an afternoon swim. A hundred yards
out they dived overheard together.
Silverthorne had not gone far when he
heard Anna Hill scream for help. She
went down twice before he could reach
her and did not rise again.
Overcome by grief and exhaustion he
was soon splashing wildly.
Meantime Harry Bloodgoot put out
from shore in another rowboat and sue
ceeded in getting Edith Hill and Miss
White aboard, but not before Silver
thorhe sank. He was unconscious when
hauled into the boat. physicians worked
faithfully over all three, but only Miss
White was revived.

RAILROADS WIN FIGHT
FOR RATES ON LUMBER
Master in Chancery Finds Against
Interstate Commerce Commits
SIGN Ruling.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, July 23.-F'rederick
n. Dickson of st. Paul, master Of chan-
Gerry, today filed his preliminary findings
in the lumber rate suit instituted in the
fall of 1908. against the interstate
commerce commission by the Great
Northern. Northern Pacific, Union
Pacific and Chicago. Burlington and
Quincy railway companies. They were
served on the attorneys of both sides of
the litigation.
In the findings the railroads win a sub
stantial victory. The lumber rates es-
tablished by the 1. c. c. from the Pa
cifc coast to all points west Of the
Pembina line, which is made up of the
western boundaries of Minnesota, Iowa
and Missouri, is sustained, but the rates
from the coas: to points east of that
line are declared to be Inreasonably
low
The railroads ask for a rate of 80
cents hundredweight on lumber shipped
from Portland, Ore. to st. Paul and
for 60 cents from Portland to Chicago.
The 1. c. c. cut this to 40 cents from
Portland to ST. Paul, and % cents from
Portland to Chicago. Mr.. Dickson upholds
the contentious of the railroads and rec
ommends an injunction multiplying the
order of the I. c. c. on these rates and
on other lumber rates from the coast to
points east of the Pembina line.
