slO,0O0,000 BANK T,
FOR GRAND RAPIDS
Grand Rapids National and National
, To Be Merged-James R. Wylie
at Head.

Grand Rapids viii have new ten
million dollar bank as soon as the
merger that is now under way be.
tween the Grand Rapids National
bank and the National City bank OF
that city, can be completed. The
plans for the merger were first made
public Wednesday morning. The two
institutions are among the Oldest ana
strongest In the state and the merged
bank will be the largest institution In
Michigan outside OF Detroit,
The new bank will be known as the
Grand Rapids City National bank. The
capital will be 1000, 900 and the COM
bined deposits will total more than
nine millions. The surplus OF the two
banks Is more than $250.000. The
head OF the Grand Rapids National
bank is Dudley K. Waters, and accord
ing to the preliminary plans he Will
be chairman OF the board of the new
Institution. The president OF the
merged banks will be James r. Wylie.
who Is now president OF the National
City bank. The merger OF these banks
is in accordance with the tendency
that has been manifested In banking
circles for some time past. Although
the banking business OF Detroit is
four times as large as Il was in 1890
there are only eleven clearing house
banks now, compared to twenty In
1890. The smaller banks have con-
solidated into large houses. This
merging tendency is seen in other
centres notably In other centres not
ably in New York and Chicago, where
only short time ago two OF the larg-
est institutions consolidated.

Few voters. whether poems. Indians

cause they know that the elections are
entirely controlled by the government
and that what Americans call ballot
box stuffing Is always done. The chief

the clerks, watchers. judges and every
one else connected with the elections.

Pen-Plcture Of Diax.
What sort of man Is Diaz. who was
so long responsible for this Russian
like rule; whose hands are now held
up by those closest TO him?
or magnificent stature, with snow
white hair and beard, he looks the
man of power and strength. In reality
Diaz is almost the opposite. His hear
ing is almost gone, he is nearly blind,
his hand trembles so that he cannot
sign his correspondence, but must en-
ploy rubber stamp for that purpose.
His mind and body are weakened
by his many years OF work and fight
ing: he is virtually puppet In the
hands OF a ring OF INSCRIPTIONS OH
Gals. He Is told to do this and he
does II, to sign that order and he signs
II; to have such a man killed and the
command is given,
Throughout the "a years OF his
reign. for so IL must be called, Diaz
has kept his power through the army,
putting down all opposition with a
strong military arm. A feeble man or
more than so years, he cannot last
much longer. What will then come?
Will the man who succeeds him be
strong enough TO smother the constant
political eruptions as Diaz has done;
to kill the political hopes and ambi-
lions of the thousands Of agitators.
and to hold in check the anger OF an
outraged reople? III not, then civil
war. revolution, terrible in its proper
tions and effects. is sure to come.
The only hope of Mexico Is through
the efforts OF the thousands OF patri-
OTIS.

Chance Expects to Win the
Worlds Title Despite ,
Two Game Handicap.
BY HI. E. X.

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. 19.-Four
games are all the Cubs need now to
cinch the worlds championship. They
cago, beginning Thursday. D. ", and
the other two later. This process of
reasoning is sound and simple, even in
the light of what happened yester-
day, superinduced by what happened
the day before.
Are the Cubs downhearted? No, they
are NOT downhearted.
Mr. Chance said after yesterdays
game that the Athletics, Elephants or
Mackmen needed two more games to
get their handicap. There is another
coming to them according to these fig
ures before they start on a class level
with the Cubs. Precautions will be
taken, of course, to prevent their get
ting all that Is coming to them in the
way of allowance. but should they grab
another game on Thursday it will not
make a particle of difference. The
Cubs still can win their four and the
worlds pennant.
The dope still is working. The con-
sensus of expert opinion cannot be
wrong. Jim O'Leary can keep right or
laying to against the Athletics. II
is as good a lay now as it was yes
terday or before the series opened
AS said In the foregoing the Cub:
are not downhearted, but they are no
fit to speak to in their present frame
of mind.

COBB AND LAJOIE
GET AUTOS AT
SHIBE PARK

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. 19.-As the
Cubs went out to take their helding
practice before yesterdays game two
twin Chalmers cars were driven on the
field in front of the grand stand These
were the rewards of-merit for Ty Cobb
and Larry Lajoie. who finished a neck
apart in the race for the country's bat
ting championship.
Cobb. VINO was in the press stand,
was called to the field and presented
with one of the machines. Lajoie was
not present, and his car will be shipped
to him today. The photographers
posed Cobb in front of his machine.
The Athletics, who were not busy prac-
ticing. lined up behind and were in the
picture.
Then Cobb took the drivers seat in
his car and Herman Schaefer and Bill
Donovan climbed in behind, while John
E. Bruce, secretary of the national
commission. who made the presentation
got into Lajoies car with two friends
A picture was taken of the whole
group. Ty ran his machine around the
outfeld and Larry's followed it, the
crowd cheering as both autos disap-
peared from view

in Every Department.
BY DOC, White.

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. 19.-The sec
ond game of the world series was
played yesterday before a smaller at
tendance than on the first day. which
does not speak well for Philade1phians'
support. of their champion baseball
club, ever after a glorious victory over
the CubsN the day previous. Had it
been played in Chicago we could look
for an increase, especially during such
ideal weather which is surprising at
this time of the year
The Cubs went down to defeat for
the second time In one sided game of
to 3, and to date have not demon
strated their superiority over the Ath-
ltics in any department of the game.
The Mackmen are going to be a hard
club to beat from now on They have
gained what little confidence they
needed to make them a hard bunch to
win from. and from today the Cubs will
find them aggressive from the start OF
each game.
The Athletics have made the team
from the Windy city play defensive
ball in each game, much to every fans
surprise. The infield only needed a lit
| tie seasoning in the series to find them
| selves. and they look every bit as well
if not better, than the Cub inf1eld.

Consequently we bet heavily, at even

little trouble in holding the regulars
to 90 score during the twenty min
utes' scrimmage. Three times in suc-
cession the second string men gained

sity could not gain. The regulars then
resorted to kicking, at which Andrews
and Baliau for the varsity and Pen
field for the scrubs were about equal.
The general showing of the team is un-
satisfactory and more changes in the
line may be expected. Capt. Hart, who
was shifted to left tackle yesterday in
the hope of strengthening the line, was

WILSON OF MAROONS
BREAKS COLLAR BONE

Eberle Wilson, quarter back of the
University of Chicago football team and
one of the stars of the west, broke his
afternoon at Marshall field and will be
useless to Coach Stage for the rest of
the season. He injured himself dur
ing scrimmage with the Midway
freshmen. hurting himself against a
post on the sidelines while tackIing
an opponent.
Wilson's accident came after he had
put forth his best practice game of the
year. Believing that some of the Ma
rooms blamed him for Chicago's defeat
by Illinois. he tried to redeem himself
by a brilliant record in scrimmage, and
succeeded at the cost of his 1910 ap-
pearance
The injury was the most sudden and
one of the most disastrous In Maroon
history. the quarterback was the
chief hope of the team. Despite his
failures in drop kicking, he has proved
one of the eminent punters of the
country.
When Wilson was injured Coach
Stage stopped the scrimmage with the
varsity leading, 6 to 0. Stage will have
to change his practice plans for the
rest of the week as a result of Wilson
misfortune. The quarterback question
was regarded as settled, but it will be
dragged out again today, and Stage
will begin another hunt for the real

CUB BACKER
GETS COLD FEET

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. 19.-J. ]. Sui
Ivan of Boston yesterday wagered
$4,000 against the chances of the Cubs
winning the world series. This amount
was split into eighteen wagers, and
was made before the game yesterday.
The money forced the former odds to
10 to s, with the Athletics on the long
end of the bet. Originally Sullivan
came here with the intention of placing
his money on the Cubs. He failed to
get it down Monday. and after seeing
the game, decided as money making
