PENSION MRS. CLEVELAND.
Custom of Providing For Widows Of
Presidents Will Be Continued.


Washington, Jan. 11.-That the Gus
tom of the United States in providing
for the widows of presidents may be

THAT FARcIcAL INVESTIGATION

One of the big jokes of the time is
the appointment of a commission tC
investigate the workings of the new
tariff and tell us if it has resulted in
higher prices. Such an investigation
will accomplish nothing, because
every man that has a dollar to spend
already knows the answer to the ques-
ton. What would be of vast benefit
to the people, though, would be an
down the duty to prevent the trusts
from skying prices. The truth is be-
coming more and more apparent that
the only solution of the tariff problem
and the only cure for the trust greed
is absolute free trade, buying and sell
ing in the open market. And becaus>
this is going to be the final solution
of this great problem, the people
should choose representatives to con
gress who are willing to work for the
people awhile instead of the inter
ests. There seems to be no limit 70
the extremes to which the trusts will
go to exploit the people, and the only
way to crib them is to invite compe-
tition The old song that no tariff
would hurt the American workman is
of no force, because the truth is the
trusts are paying as cheap wages now
as they can, and use cheap labor
wherever and whenever it can be had.

Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

VALLEJO, Jan. 1.-The 10 round
battle between Young Attell of this
city and Ray Baughman. the rising
young bantam weight of Petaluma, re-
suited in a draw this afternoon. Both
boys fought fast and gamely through
out and the decision of Referee Charley
Grennan met with the approval of the
big holiday crowd which witnessed the
battle
For the first five rounds it was all
Attell. He forced matters and had his
man on the road to dreamland. Baugh-
man, however, was game to the core
and fought back at every opportunity
But he did not seem to have a chance
till after the fifth round. when Atteil
suddenly blew up. He had been going
too fast pace and he could not main
tain the gait.
Baughman rushed Attell hard when
he saw that the latter was inclined TO
slow down. Attell fought a good
heady fight under fire and managed to
stall along for couple of rounds. He
got his second wind in the ninth and
tenth and met Baughfnan toe to toe.
1t was SO close at the finish that Ref
cree Grennan could do nothing but
call the battle a draw.
Barney Driscoll, the popular little
Vallejo fighter, returned to his old
time form in his bout with Joe Evans
of San Francisco, and scored a knock
out in the fifth round. Evans was
fioored five times In the last two
rounds, but showed wonderful game
ness and recuperative powers. Dris-
coll finally finished his man with a
shower of rights and lefts to the head.
Hook Keyes OF Vallejo had too much
steam and class for Jim Burgess of
San Francisco. Keyes knocked his
man out in the second round of a
mill which was carded to go six rounds.

but the fans hissed him so much that

accuse Label and Sullivan of putting
one over on them. The fight did NOT
look good from the outset.
The contests were given under the
