TWO BRACES RUN
IN FIELD TRIALS

Rogers Springs, Tenn, January T.-Two
braces were run by the dogs in continue
ton of the championship stake of the
United States field trials and unless a
second trial series is deemed necessary
the event will conclude tomorrow morn
ing with only one brace to be run. In
the morning today the setter Rocksand,
owned by Hamilton & Pixley of Omaha,
and handled by j. M. Avent, was pitted
against the setter Chitchat, owned by DR..
H. s. Atkins OF ST. Louis, and handled by
J. A. GUIDE of Bruceviie, Ind.
Both dogs started away at a slashing
pace, going with great speed and range.
and finished at gallop, though almost
exhausted. Rocksand found .wo bevies,
handling them perfectly, while Chitchat
found three, one Of which, however, was
not ceanly handled.
In the afternoon Cowley's Pride, owned
by U. NJ. F1eischmann of Now York,
was down with Grille Rodfield owned by
o. W, Dyer of Oneida. Tenn. the former
handled by C. H. Babcock and the latter
by J. A. Guide While both ran well the
work of the F'leischmann dog was the
best it finding seven clean bevies and
finished strong. He is also credited with
an error.
Grille Rodfield ran the fastest race, but
her running was not as uniform as that
of her brace mate.
Following the Championship event to-
morrow corning the representatives Of
the various field trials clubs will meet
here to organize national association TO

MUCH INTEREST IN
COPPER COMBINE

New York. January 27.-There was
lively interest today in Wall street over
the plans to combine the Guggenheim
and the Amalgamated Copper interests
into one gigantic corporation second
only to the United States Steel corpor-
alton. Those best informed denied the
previous report that J. P. Morgan & Co.
would finance the transfer. It was
pointed out that thus far all that has
been done by the allied interests has
been to group the properties in separ-
ate divisions.
By this means If a greater merger
should later seem advisable 1t can be
effected without the compiled lions that
beset the simultaneous absorption of
many small companies. Wall street has
1T that the general outline of this plan
has already been passed upon infor
mally by the Attorney General.
At any event 1T will take several
weeks to work out the details and there
Is still possibility of litigation over
the terms proposed to the Nevada Con-
solidated properties.
Denial was made that the Amalga-
mated will eventually absorb the Ana
conda. On the contrary II was said the
Anaconda will absorb the properties in
its own territory, and snen pass into
one great holding company together
with the Amalgamated and its subsid-
iaries and Butte coalition.

the Imprisonment of members of prom

AUBURN DEFEATED

Two Sensational Finishes Keep

WHITES VS.. HIGH SCHOOL
Boys Put Up Great Fight and Lose

At Young Mems Christian
Association Tomorrow.
WHITES VS.. HIGH SCHOOL

A large crowd at the Athletic club last
night watched two basketball games
which for thrilling finishes left all the
Ben Hur chariot races in the shade. The
Athletic club came out victorius in both,
defeating Auburn 1881 and the Whites
won from the High school by l point,
also.
The Auburn boys did not get together
until the second half, when they put up
a scrappy contest. Richie at center for
the club secured the knockout, and one
formation after another made the game
interesting to those who understand the
fine points. Richie was the star of the
first half, which ended 1913 in favor of
the club
When the final struggle began the col
lege boys were In as for their lives. Gordy
and Thomas made a number of beautiful
goals. and the pass work was quick and
snappy. Twice the pluczy fellows came
within / point of victory. and then rally
on the part of the club team held them
fast.
VIII STREET at guard played a great
game, scoring almost as many points as
his opponent, Truman Thomas. Hilty and
Williams furnished steady headwork and
sometimes sensational passes.
When Thomas. by a final rally, had
dropped in the goal that tied the score, 1t
looked like an Auburn victory, but wild
cheering for the home team was respon-
sible for the winning goal, which bounced
through just as the whistle blew for
'time's up" Auburn protested that time
was called 10 seconds too soon, but as this
would have hardly given time to get the
ball out of the basket and up in center,
it had no effect on the score.
Here is the official score.

Louisville, January 27.-(Special 1.-THE
litigation between the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad company and the
South and North Alabama Railroad COM
pany and the railroad commission of the
state of Alabama is expected to wax warm
here by next week when C. B. Compton,
traffic manager, and Maj. William A.
colston, assistant controller. respectively.
of the Louisville and Nashville, are
called as witnesses to testify as to the
earnings of their company in Alabama.
These two officials will, no doubt, prove
the strongest witnesses for the Louisville
and Nashville at the hearing in Louis
VILE
1t is understood on reliable authority
that both Major Colston and Mr. Comp
ton will attempt to show that the stat,
utory rates, for which the Alabama COM
mission is fighting. will not yield fair
profit They will submit facts and figures
from their departments showing the earn
inss and operating expenses of the Louis
vile and Nashville on earnings and oper-
ating expenses of the Louisville and
Nashville on intrastate business. They
will attempt to prove that the operating
expenses since the beginning of the fiscal
year, July last. up to the present have
been greater than those recorded for the
same period in 1908. Further, they will
testify that the revenue derived by the
company from the reduced rates has
shown a remarkable falling Off.
According to one of the attorneys rep
resenting the Alabama commission the
testimony Of Major Colston and Mr.
Compton will be the most important Of.
the present hearing. 1t will enable me
attorneys for both sides to Judge just how
much revenue the statutory rates will
produce for the railroad per annum.
Today three witnesses were examined at
the hearing in the general offices The
testimony Of T. O. Harrison, engineer Of
the South and North Alabama road, was
concluded this morning and John Howe
Peyton assistant to Milton H. Smith,
president of the Louisville and Nashville,
was called. Mr. Peyton left the stand
after brief cross-examination, where
