the New York game" with the

the rules being somewhat different.
Before the invention of baseball the
English game of FOUNDERS" and town
BALI and three hole cat" had been
played In America with balls, bats and
bases. In 1889 a West Point cadet
named Doubleday, appointed from
Cooperstown and probably at home
on furlough, invented the game

general in the army and famous as q
mathematician. He organized team

against two batters, then against any
number present and not engaged In
fielding. Later he placed nine men
on side, assigned their positions and
played games. AS to whether Cadet
Doubleday introduced the game into
West Point upon his return to the
academy there is much dispute. II is
said by several army veterans that
the plass of 1S41 played a game be-
lieved to be the Doubleday game
against another class team, but this
has been denied:

population the man was found. He
was a German butcher and he became
famous In a day as the only man In
Chicago who was ignorant Of base
ball and the approaching series. But
even he became a convert, for Comis-
key sent him a season ticket to the
American league games and before
the next June he was one Of the regu-
lar White Sox rooters.
During that same series, when the
West side and the South side were en-
gagged almost in civil war, there was
an Irishman named Faugh Ballagh
Finnegan, better known as Fog" who
had made small fortune In trade on
the West side, and who, although he
never had seen a game, was one of
the most loyal supporters of the West
side team. On the day of the first
game Fog" gloriously arrayed, and
with much money to wager, was the
center of a group of ardent West
South side stands. Standing on his seat
he defed the White Sox supporters
and Haunted his money in their faces.

side" he shouted.
IVAN hundrid to fifty. Wan hun
drid to forty"
The South siders, who were not
betting on their team, ignored him.
lie shouted, challenged. and yelled
the praises of the West side. Pres
emily the umpire brushed off the plate
and announced:
Ladies aud Gentlemen: The bat
teries for today's game will be Ruel-
bach and King for the West side.
Walsh and Sullivan for the South
side"
For an instant Fog blinked hard,
wavering between loyalty to the West
side and love for Ireland. Then, leap
ing up again, he shouted:
Walsh and Sullivan-thim's they
byes | meant Wan hundrid to sixty
on the South side"
The interest in that struggle In Chi
cago was duplicated over the entire
country the following year when Chi
cago and New York engaged in their
bitter contest for the National league
championship. The presidential cam
paign was at It's height, but the inter
est in the baseball race overshadowed
It. Norman Mack, chairman Of the
Democratic national committee, met
one of the club owners on the street.
When is that baseball season going
to end?" he inquired anxiously.
The club owner explained the situa-
ton.
Well" remarked Mack. hurry up
and get II over with. We want to stir
up some interest in the campaign"
On the day when the teams played
off their tie for the championship, the
Democratic national headquarters was
turned into a baseball meeting. A
committeeman from Oregon, entering
to report, complained to Mack that he
could not get hearing.
They're in the sixth inning now"
remarked Mack. "In about an hour
we can start to do business" And he
joined the crowd at the ticker.
Baseball, under that name, had its
beginning at Cooperstown, N. Y, in
1899, although afterward the name
was changed, the game being called

the control of baseball and took the
game cut of the hands of the players,
the promoters made a stern attempt
to punish players guilty Of selling
games and to stamp out gambling as
the only means Of salvation Of the
pastims.
William II. Hubert, president of the
league, saved the game by radical
move. He summarily expelled and
placed upon blacklist every player
accused OF being connected with the
gambling frauds, whether the charges
we're proved or not Some innocents
may have suffered, but Hubert drove
the gamblers from the parks.
Again baseball recovered and four-
ished, increasing steadily in popular
ity until 1890, when an iDsurrection Of
the players against the National
league club owners checked it's prog
ress. The cause of the rebellion was
the attempt of the club owners to
limit all salaries. The players for a
time seemed triumphant, but the lead
ers among them treacherously sold
them out TO the club owners and the
Players league collapsed, leaving the
owners heavily in debt and the game
discredited in many places.
Slowly the era of prosperity re-
turned. Interest increased rapidly.
Baseball was flourishing more and
more until 1900, when a war between
the two great leagues of the country
gave It another serious reverse. With

 Chairman Hill upon being handed with the clerk and then called Judge Banks over and asked him if the amendment was proper under the rules. It was decided that the amendment was in order but at the request of Stiles Judson who an nounced that while he fav9red some form of direct primary legiHaation he was opposed to taking actioh upon it with such slim attendanee it was tabled.
 Michael KeneaIyz opposed the amend ment on the ground that he did not favor encumbeFing the statutes with a law that might not prove Acceptable after trial. He said it was very easy enough to get laws on the statutes but difficult to get them off if they proved banefuI. He made the point that both the Republican, and Demo cratic parties could without recourse to statutory enactment adopt such primary laws as each deemed best therefore there was no need in his judgment for taking action on the amendment He said the same amendment had been presented in the committee on Resolutions by MT. Mor- ris and turned down by vote that was unanimous save for the /objec- ton of MT. Morris.
 The bill referred to in the Morris plank was reported to the general assembly in 1909 by a. legislative commission of which Judge John H. Perry Of Southport was chairman ana or Wn1ch Col IN. GT- OSDOEEO O4 New Haven was a member The commission was non-partisan and was named in 1905 to investigate tho subject of direct primaries. It re- ported in 1907 and was sent out with instructions to investigate further. In 1909 It reported a bill providing di- rect primaries and the report was put over to the 1911 session. Dele gate Morris wished the Republican party to declare in favor of this leg js1ation, which had been proposed by 3 mission 2nnOJnf06 d RRnT1h- lican legislature.
 MT. Morris has been long an ardent adanirer. of LaFo1lette, Roosevelt and Hughes. Republicans who champion the direct primary method of mak- ing nominations.

 MT. Morris is now striving to pro- cure an amendment to the rules of the Republican party in Bridgeport, which will permit local nominations to be made directly.

DR. COOK EN ROUTE TO ETAH
 FOR RECORDS
Danish Vessel Hans Egede Brings News to Copenhagen
 From Greenland
Cook Has Always COntended He Could Prove His Case With Polar Data Left Behind
Especial from United Press.o

London, Sept. 15-Dr. Frederick Cook. the diseredited Arctic explorer. is now en route to Etah on the northwest coast of Greenland, to recover records which he alleges he left there on his return from the North Pole. according to the Copenhagen correspondent of the Central News.
 Cook is aboard the yacht Beauty belonging to John R. Bradley, who backed Cook in his last Polar hunt News of Cook was brought to Copen- hagen by ship that hailed the Beauty and learned the doctors mis- sion from the explorer himself.
 Cook is after records which he says will yet prove his claim to being the discoverer of the North Pole, a. claim that first brought him the plaudits of the world and then the worlds deris- ion.
 The vessel bringing the news of Cook also brought letters from officials of Greenland stating that all the Eski- mos, who were associated with Cook on his last Polar trip, are convinced that he reached the Pole.
 The Danish vessel Hans Egede, on which Cook returned to Copenhagen from his Arctic travels little more than a, year ago, brought the news of Cook to Copenhagen. The Hans Egede encountered the Beauty at d Danish stand off the southern coast of Greenland. It was learned that Cook was aboard the Beauty" aI- though he was not seen by theA cap tain of the Egede.
 The last authentic word regarding the whereabouts of pr. Cook was last April when he vas reported in. Rio Janiero, after having been seefs by several Americans in Chile the month before. He was then planning, he said, to sail for New York.
 Cook has always contehded that if the records lie says he left at Eta n could have been presented to the committee of the University of Cop enhagen it would never hsssMs retuI2- ed an adverse report on His polar data.
 In the Etah cache, Dr. Cook claims. are the. instruments with which he made observations, the absence of which were considered fatal to his proof of his discovery claim
 As soon as the report of the Copen- hagen committee was published COOK announced that he would spend zev- cry cent he possessed if necessary to send an expedition to Etah after his records. lts
