Therefore. he said. pension legisia-
ton can only be expected from the re-
publicans. The senator came out plain
ly and without eQuivocation in favor OF
the enactment of the dollar a day pen
sion law which is now before congress
and he promised that every republi-
can congressman from Indiana would
vote for it.
Another thing to which Senator Bev-
eridge called attention was the fact
that the five democratic congressman
from Indiana who have introduced spe-
cial pension bills all come from dis
tricts that are so close as to make
doubtful their reelection. Not one of
these bills has been introduced by an
Indiana democratic congressman who
represents a solid democratic district
Therefore. he said, the Introduction OF
these bills by the members from the
doubtful districts was only a piece OF
cheap clap-trap politics for the pur-
pose of influencing some of the repub-
lican old soldiers to vote for them. But
he said 1t was so apparent that none
OF them would be caught by it.

Thus when there are two plums Peter
and Paul share equally and last night
the arrangements were laid after
O'Brien's bid was slashed so that 1t
will work again. 1t has been worked
a good many times before and to some
it looks as though it will shortly be
overworked with the grand jury in the
vicinity.
How They Voted.
Whether all of the aldermen who
voted for the shameless piece of legis-
lation knew what they were doing or
whether they were misled by Castle
mans shrieks and cries about legal
points Is not known. However this is
the way they voted on the proposition
to throw out O'Brien's bid:
YES-Castleman, Walsh Simiasko.
Szymanski and Bowser.
NO-Feuer and Rowley.
The following tabulated figures will
give a interesting sidelight on last
nights performances:
Ridge Road Bids.
The bid of the Gary Construction
company "a. F. Knots. president) on
Ridge Road cement walks from Broad
way to Georgia street is as follows:

struction companys bid which comes
in with a bid $1.53 less than A. F.

Cain company are the same with the
exception that the figures SLIP have
added to them-one half cent making
the total read 243O as compared with

WALSH FANS THIRTEEN,
But BROWNS WIN, 10
First Inning Hoodoo Pur
sues the Sox and Lone
Tally Breaks It Up.

Mr. E. Allerton Walsh, the eminent
moist ball artists, hung up new
strike-o out record for hurlers working
under low thermometric conditions at
the south side ball yard yesterday, the
big fellow defying pneumonia, chill
blains, glass arm and other kindred
ills in order to fan thirteen Browns
in the first shuddering match of the
two-game series. Even at that, the
Meriden finger was unable to annex
the victory because of too close asso-
citation with his pitching pals, Ed hav-
ing contracted "frstinningitis" to such
fatal degree that OConnor's new
blood was able to count one run in the
initial round and calcimine the Sox, /
to 0.
The white Skinned mound monarch
has claimed more strike-out victims in
an afternoon than he baffied yesterday
his most notable performance of the
season coming on Aug. IL when fifteen
Red Sox famed the air. But on that
occasion the sun smiled down upon the
big fellow" and the thirst for cool
stu fran high. 1t was under far diff
ferent conditions that Walsh reached
the 'hoodoo" total for yesterday the
mercury was flirting with zero and
arctic exploration duds were the mode
although not conspicuous in the thin1y
populated stands
Neither could Walsh resort to his
highly esteemed salivated delivery This
was no fault of his own. 1t might have
been a spitball when 1t left his mast
erful hand but by the time IL floated UP
to the batter it was a new puzzIer-
an icicle drop.

There were no absentees in the Cub

Pitcher Weaver. the recruit bought

bring 500 people from North Hayden.
The Harborites are determined to win
this game to make up for the defeat the
Lowell team gave them few Sundays
ago, and will come over with as good
a lineup as ii is possible for them to
get. and in the meantime the Lowell
team is determined to make this two

bidder can look for the usual stab.
1t came last night as 1t has done a good
many times lately.
The method of clubbing the outside"
contractors is costing the taxpayers
thousands of dollars But few bids
have come of late and those who have
been up against the game realize that
it is useless and the result has been
that on several recent occasions the
council, has had to let several jobs
wherein there was but one bidder.
VIII Affect Lot Buyers.
1t is asserted that last nights to-
gether with some of the recent actions
of the council Is going to have a sad
effect upon south end property. That
part below the Little Calumet river
will have lot owners who who will be
clamoring against high sidewalk as
sessments and 1T is not altogether i'm
proba BILE that sales will diminish ac-
cordingly when buyers learn of the as
sessment juggles they are likely to OBJ
tain against their lots by reason of the
contract letting methods of the city
council.
Let No Contracts Last Night.
Present at last nights session were
Mayor Knots. Alderman Rowley,
Feuer. Bowser, Simiasko, Szymanski.
Castleman and Walsh. The chief bust
ness before the house was the open
ing Of several bids, principally those
for miles of cement sidewalks in the
south end.
Dangerous Precedent.
The fight of the evening came up
when Alderman Castleman engineered
a deal through the council to throw
out the bids of Contractor P. T. O'Brien
because his two bids on adjoining ce-
ment sidewalk contracts wers in one
envelope and because the certified
check was one instead Of two although
the check coverei the total guarantee
necessary.
The "Tyvfn Sisters"
1t was upon this point that Castle
man tried to have the bid laid aside as
he didn't want to have anything done
Illegal or contrary to the statutes
Alderman Rowley and Feuer made a
valiant fight upon this piece of trick
cry but they were unsuccessful and
finally Castleman succeeded in having
motion passed to throw the bid out
. altogether This left what was desired
not but the famous twin sister bid
ders, one always bidding a few cents or
a few dollars lower on one job and the
other in an apparent act of reciprocity
evidently returning the compliment

GARY AND HAMMOND
CROSS BATS SUNDAY
Much Speculation Regard
ing Outcome Of Game
Scheduled for 18th.

Bill Kunert's Gary team against the
Hammond Athletic association, at
Hammond, is the bill that is offered
for next Sunday. The two aggregations
have not been together this season and
consequently there is considerable
speculation as to the outcome.
Owing to the splendid showing that
Duke Walker and Mcdonald made as
the Hammond battery against Crown
Point last Sunday, Manager Ketchel of
the II. A. AS has practically decided
to retain this battery for the game next
Sunday. Mcdonald, while a new man
IN Hammond, found favor with the
Hammond fans Immediately, and he
and walker are evidently an excellent
pair to pit against any kind of oppo-
sition.

or the democratic ticket, and they chose
the latter.
Senator Beveridge regards the re-
suit as a healthy indication Of the
sentiment that is sweeping the ccun-
try. In a statement which he gave out
yesterday Senator Beverage said:
The old time politicians absolutely
refused to admit the tremendous pro-
gress, mental and moral. among the
people, and the complete abandonment
by the people of the old time partisan
methods.
Both stand Patters.
Both Maine senators and all of the
Maine congressman were ardent sup
porters of the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill
and Senator Hale has been its most
ardent advocate and defender.
Therefore, the voters of Maine have
repudiated the leadership which en-
phatically misrepresented them, and
the only way they had an opportunity
to do this was by voting for the oppo-
sition ticket.
Had there been one public man in
the republican party of Maine Of the
type of Bass of New Hampshire or Os-
born of Michigan, or Johnson of Cali
fornta. who stand for the progressive
ideas that are the very life of the re-
publican party, the voters of Maine
would have rallied around him.
Much Stronger Here.
The feeling among republicans here
is that if progressive ideas are so
strong in Maine as they were indicated
by the election, they will be found to
be much stronger in progressive Indi-
ana, where it is admitted that fully rs
per cent of the republicans are of
that kind. But the situation is alto
gether different in this state from the
situation in Maine. for in Indiana the
platform is based on progressive lines
and ideas. and the republicans who are
dissatisfied with the old order of
things VIII not be compelled to vote
the democratic ticket in order to carry
out their own progressive ideas.
Indiana Strengthened.
Therefore, Senator Beveridge and
other leaders here feel that the result
in Maine has strengthened the repun-
lican lines in Indiana, and that the
Maine election was held far enough IN
advance of the Indiana election to have
a good effect on the Indiana situation
Indianapolis old soldiers turned out
in large numbers to attend a meeting
which Senator Beverage addressed on
NJ onday night. and in his speech he
made it plain to them that If any ad-
ditional pension legislation is to be
enacted by congress it must be done
by a republican congress. He showed
the old soldiers that every piece c PEN
sion legislation that has ever been en-
acted has been passed by the republi-
cans.
The senator said that not one bit CT
pension legislation has ever been pass
ed by the democrats. The reason for
this, he said. is that nearly all of the
democratic congressman are from TIE
southern states. Southern congressman
control the democratic minority in cor
gress. and re said that the old soldiers
could not expect any pension legisla-
ton from them for the veteran union
