BASEBALL NOTES
AND COM MENT.

With Harry Lord. Joe Wood, and Am
brose Mcconnell in good form the Red
Sox should make a great killing on the
next Western trip.
Dan Shay says his Kansas City players
are too friendly with players OF visiting
teams TO suit him. He wants more Of the
lighting spirit.
Clyde Engle is certainly making good
with the Red Sox. He plays third IN
great shape. and is hitting in the 300
class. Jack Kleinow is also making
good behind the bat.
Pitcher Ryan, Of ST. Paul. has been
suspended for ten days by Manager Mike
Kelley for an alteration with Catcher
Spencer. Mike is having trouble in keep
ing his men lined up.
Stoney McGlynn has a pretty good whip
for a veteran. The other day while
warming up m center field at Columbus
he threw the ball over the pennant pole
down by the score board. It's a pretty
nifty heave.
The following offers have been posted
with a Cincinnati stakeholder: One thou
sand dollars against 600 tndt FlttSDurg
will not win the pennant this year; 81 900
against $500 that New York win not win
the pennant this year.
Frank Bancroft says he is in no way
connected with the National-American
all-star games 10 be played in October.
When the season ends Banny will take
the Reds on their annual transforming
trip. and desires to hear from clubs in
Ohio. Indiana. and West Virginia wishing
October dates.
The Reds report that Rube Benton looks
better every time out. Through constant
practice and coaching. as well as watch
ing the other pitchers every day. he has
learned a lot about the noble art OF
pitching. He has secured a good motion
with runners on the sacks, and he is put
ting the ball over the plate with great
regularity. RUDE looks good enough now
for a real trial, and GriR will soon send
him into a game OF his own, with a
chance TO put a winner over for himself.

The Giants have seemed to rely on the

parently goes to the plate with a deter

count for many Of the double plays exc

more players who developed the sacrifice

Of efficiency. Several times this year the
Giants have needed but one run to tie and
had man on base. where a bunt would
have advanced him and a sacrifice fly
scored him. Is It that the Giants cannot

Interviewed in the office OF
her attorneys, Mrs. Quinn de-
clared that she had not seen a

ed for a paper, saying that she
wanted to know what was going
on in the world. She declared
that in the two years she was at

she got $40 on each of her birth
days and $5 when her mother

During that time, she said, the
sum of $4,000 had been paid

gan an investigation of the graft

charge of Chief of Police Wappen-
stein by the acting mayor yester-

CONFESS
GUILT

Although Sam Lewis, alias @.
r. Backman, and Charles M.
Deck, arrested this week for
counterfeiting, have both pleaded
guilty before the United States
commissioner, they. will. be given
hearing before. the federal
grand jury, now in session. If a
true bill is found against them
and they insist on making the
plea of guilty before Judge Dom
worth, it is likely that they will
be sentenced at once.
Bert Grim, the other one OF
the trio arrested, Is vindicated
from any connection with the
two confessed eounterfeiters, and
will probably not be, prosecuted
but will be returned to the Fol-
som penitentiary to serve out q

The school boy, Joseph Evans
who brought about the capture OF
the men, will be released, and

CHICAGO, Sept. 30.-What Ia
believed to be a mantacai attempt
to dynamite the home of Mrs.
Potter Palmer, was made public
today. Fred Wahlenmeyer, 26,
is under arrest on suspicion of be-
ing either a dangerous maniac or
a plotter to kill members of the
Palmer family. Wahlenmeyer

porch of the Palmer home and
bomb ready for ignition was In
his possession.
Wahlenmeyer rang the bell at
the Palmer home. The butler

arrived they found Wahlenmeyer
waiting outside the door with a
butcher knife in his hand. He
resisted but was finally overpow-
cred.

STOP TO
SHORT WEIGHT

1--WE need a sealer of weights
and measures in Tacoma. All the
time we have complaint about
short weights and small meas
ures. You put city sealer on the
job and you will have to add an
other board to the coal bin, and
that cord of wood viii look bigger
than w."-Mayor A. v. Faw-
cett.
City Attorney Stiles was this
morning asked by the mayor to
prepare an ordinance to provide
for a city sealer of weights and
measures. At present no provi-
sion is made to chastise the un-
scrupulous dealer who emulates
the example of the sugar trust and
has little springs in his scales, or
who saws off a few cubic feet from
every cord of wood.
The county has appliances for
testing scales, but little attention
has been paid to the department
and dealers generally have been
allowed to do as they please, give
what they like to customers and
pocket the results of false weights
and measures.
1t is possible when the new Or
dinance is framed that the city
sealer's job may be combined
with that of license inspector. A
couple of years ago there was
talk of doing this, and J. w. Mar
tents, who was then license in
spector, admitted that he had
plenty of time to attend to both
jobs and was willing to do it.
The license inspector gets 500
month, and it is conceded that
he could do the additional work
for this salary.
