Washington, April 29.-w. r.. D.
Stokes, IT.. aged II. and George Eltx.
aged 16, both OF New York. yesterday
made elaborate arguments before the
senate committee on commerce in OPP
position to the bill introduced by Sena-
tor Depew to regulate wireless teie-
graph instruments. The measure
seeks to give the government the right
to control the air for the transmission
OF wireless messages in order to avoid
fnterferences. which are now a source
OF great annoyance to the sending OF
wirless messages.
The lads represent the Amateur
Wireless Club OF America. and told
the committee that there were upward
OF 10000 young men throughout the
country who were conducting expert
ments with wireless apparatus. and
that the passage of the Depew bill

BRUSSELS LIKES HIM.


Brussels, April 29.-Theodore Roose-
velt's brief stay in Brussels came to
an end this morning with one of the
most enthusiastic ovations that the for
mer president has received since he
emerged from the African jungle. The
Roosevelt party left for the Neither
lands on the 1853 train, being given
godspeed by great crowd which
crowded the station and filled the
streets about.
All the pomp that has marked the de
parture of Mr.. Roosevelt from other
cities was observed here. Foreign
Minister Davignon bid him farewell on
behalf of the government, and there
were at the depot, besides the throngt
Of commoners, representatives Of the
king, the army and the navy.
An interesting feature of Mr.. Roose
velt's stay here was his meeting with
Colonial Minister Renken, with whom
he discussed the situation in the Con
60, and commented on the plans fol
reform promised and undertaken b,
King Albert, after the death of his
predecessor, Leopold.
Before the departure, formal invi
tation was delivered to Mr.. Roosevelt
from the burgomaster and the council
lors of Antwerp. asking him to hal
there for luncheon on his way to He
Loo.

RICHARD WON'T STAND
FOR HOLDUP GAME

When Tex Richard objected to hav-
ing Jeffries and Johnson fight in Fris-
co he probably did so because he real
lied that to pull off the worlds cham
pionship fight in California meant to
let lot of outsiders in with the en-
terprise. Subsequent developments
seem to substantiate this theory. for
it is apparent that there are folks in
Frisco who propose to have share
of the profits before the plan to have
the battle there will be received with
open arms.
Richard no doubt found that he
could make better terms in Salt Lake
City. Influential men there seemed
to be satisfied to have him take a
lease on >the pavilion at Saltair, in
which fortune has been sunk, and
for this reason Richard was for Utah.
Of course. there does not appear to
be much chance of holding the fight
there. but Richard proposes to Gre
ate the impression that he will not
stand for hold up, in the hope of re-
ducing the price to get into Frisco.

CHANGES WILL NOT
AFFECT GAME MUCH

:. Aside from simplifying the wording
of playing rules so that their inter.
probation will be easier, the changes
and additions which have been made
will not dffoc. the game of baseball
in any parti :rlar.
AS most oi the rules wee written,
! it was difficult matter in many ia-
stances for any one to understand
just what was meant. To great
extent the amendments made have
eliminated this evil, and it will be-
almost possible now for an individual
not familiar with the sport to get a
good idea Of j. by reading the code
as it is now arranged.
The addition of the rule governing
substitutes is step forward. Here
tofore these have been innuMerable
wrangles between managers and UNI
pires on the question of whether u
player who is announced to take the
place of another, but is changed for
another before he gets into the game,
is eligible to play at some later peri
cd. Umpires have differed in their
rulings on this point in the past. but
the new rule makes it very plain that
a player after being announced is con-
sidered as having been engaged in the
game.
umpires have always allowed base
runners in overrunning first to turn
either to the right or left without be-
ing liable to be put out it they did
not attempt to advance, though the
rules held that the base runner must
turn to the right after overrunning
the bag. The rule has been SO chang
ed as to give the player the privilege
to turn either way.
The rule governing overthrows has
been made uniform. and the base run
ner will be entitled to two bases, re-
CARELESS of where the game is played
In order to prevent clash between
the two umpires, the rule makers
have taken care to, insert a clause
which gives each umpire supreme au-
thority over that portion of the field
over which he presides. and he can
not be instructed by his associate I'M
less his opinion is asked. So far as
the scoring rules are concerned, few
changes have been made. Wild pitches
and passed balls are not charged as
errors against the batterymen, and
neither has any restriction been plac-
ed on the hidden-ball play, SO that
there is still lack of protection for
that class of players whose craniums
are solid lignum-vitae.

SPORTING WORLD

But Jeffries has determination, un-
falling courage. remarkable strength,
and the support Of the majority Of the
Anglo-SaxOn race.
Against this huge, undiscovered
framework Of Jeffries q negro of skill
will contend. Johnson Is not troub-
lesome fellow. despite reports Of quar-
rels. He likes to live as high as his
roll will take him, and IL it's wine
he enthuses no more over it than he
would beer. Johnson is not fighter
Of the slashing. boring type.
He Is seldom serious in the ring or
out OF 1t. A song. followed by buck
and wing dancing, is Johnson's first
idea Of little fun" Then he may
pick some strapping young athlete
from the door and toss him to the
other side of the room. A poke In
the ribs that makes q mans tongue
droop and his eyes water. is one of
Johnson's pleasant ways Of greeting

johnson q Born Boxer.
He has more confidence in his clev-
erness than in his strength, but above
the waist the champion is powerful.
johnson is born boxer; Jeffries was
developed gradually. Experts who
saw Johnson half dozen years ago
say he could box as we'll then as he
can now. johnson has repeatedly re-
fused to let himself out in bouts, hav-
ing as an excuse that he did not want
to scare matches away"
During his escapades with speeding
automobiles. johnson has shown an
astonishing fluency Of speech. He
likes to inject word Of great length
into every conversation, and he has
practiced 80 faithfully that he seldom
miscues.
1t does not seem possible to fright
en- Johnson. He continually talked
while in the ring with Burns, despite
the championship at stake and bitter
ness toward his opponent. He said
that he pitied Ketchel. Pictures of
the fight showed that until Ketchel
had landed a solid punch Johnson
made no attempt to finish his oppo-
nent. But he has no pity for huge
Mr.. Jeffries.
The psychological moment will ar
rive when Jeffries removes his bath
robe in the ring and is greeted by
admiring thousands. There will be
