TARIFF BOARD ITEM
RESTORED
Chairman Tawney Frames Az
Amendment to Sundry Civil
Providing Quarter Of a NIL
lion for Purpose,


IBy Morning journal Special Leased WireI
Washington. May 23.-Chairman
Tawncy of the house appropriations
committee today succeeded IN framing
an amendment TO the sundry civil bill
providing the president with s250,000
to obtain information concerning
prices of manufactured articles that
stood the test OF conformity with the
rules of The house.
BY a strict larty vote of 1f0 to SO
the amendment was adopted Previ-
ously the house by a vote of 81 to
loo rejected the Fitzgerald amend
ment reducing the amount to $4,000.
The provision to accomplish his
general purpose had been ruled out
of order by Mr.. Mann OF Illinois in
the chair. The first proposed By Mr.,
Tawney called for q mass Of informa-
ton beyond any direct requirement of
the tariff law, while in his second
amendment there was q provision
that the president should make an
investigation OF such prices for the
purpose Of making recommendations
TO congress. Both were out of order
bccnuse they provided for doing
things not specifically authorized by
law.
Preceding the decision ruling out

Tawney accused the democrats Of de-
string to be in ignorance of the facts
about the tariff, a brief debate oc-
CURED.
When the appropriation of S5S.000
for distinctive paper for the national
currency was reached. Chairman
TaWney explained that the proposed
plans for laundering paper money
had not yet reached such a satisfac-
tory stage as to warrant reductions.
The house discussed the efforts Of
the administration to reduce the ex-
penscs Of the government. Mr.. Taw-
ncy declared that from the time of
Alexander Hamilton there had been
no change in the system of the treas
ury department until the effort now
being made to improve 1t.
Mr.. Fitzgerald declared that that
system could not be improved. He
said any attempt to run the govern
ment as a private business might be
conducted would result in Il lot of men
being sent to the penitentiarv. Gov
and business, he insisted,
were essentially different.
There were TOO many political
chair warmers in the government
ervice he added, to permit efficient
administration.

STARK is TOLEAvE
Probable That Popular First
Stacker Will Go to Connec-
ticut League.
MORE MONEY is MAGNET
Local Association Not to Stand in His
Way of Advancing Himself in
His Professional Work.

1t is practically assured that Claude
Stark will not be an Islander the coDl-
ing season Manager Tighe stated to-
day that in all probability there will
be strange face on the initial sack
when the season opens and that Stark,
the king of the diamond comedians,
will be playing ball elsewhere
If has been rumored around for
some time that Stark would go to
Aberdeen with Manager Clarence Row
land, but this is denied by the ISL
ander chief If Claude leaves Rock
Island it is more than likely that Hart
ford, Conn, will Jet his services.
Stark made an agreement with the
local association whereby he was as
sured of his release if he could land
a job with more money in it than this
city could pay under the Three-Eye
salary limit of $3.50 per man.
At the same time. however. it was
agreed that if he could be sold, it
would be done. Stark would like 10
go to Aberdeen, but Manager Rowland
is unwilling TO pay this city anything
for him. while Hartford wants him
bad enough to be willing to pay. Ac-
cordingly. although the deal has not
been closed yet, it is likely that Claude
will go east to the Connecticut league
next year.
VIII be Missed.
Local followers of the game will be
extremely sorry to see Stark go, as he
has won place in the hearts of the
fans here such as few players ever
succeed in doing. In addition to being
the peer of all the comedians in the
game. he is a player who need take
a back seat to few and as a first-sack2r
there is none in this league who could
touch him. He is ambitious to earn
more money than he was getting here,
however. and he has found several
openings, and it is not likely that the
local association will stand in the way
OF his advancement.
Just who will cover the first sack
if Stark goes is not known, even TO
Tighe himself The manager has
signed up several first basemen, two
of whom are left handlers with good
records and prospects, and it is ex-
pected that the Islanders will have
the advantage of a left handed first
baseman this season.

LOOKS GOOD HERE.
Local Fight Followers Believe
Jeffries Can Return to Old
time Form.
CHAMP IN CITY YESTERDAY
Troupe of Star Athletes Show at the
Illinois-Dr. Roller Defends
Rough Sports.

James ]. Jeffries, undefeated cham
p.on of the world, and his band of ath-
letes appeared yesterday afternoon at
the Illinois theatre and put on series
of exhibitions The work done by JEFF
fries on the stage impressed the local
fight followers that the champion is
really able to regain his old-time form
and that the great battle set for July 4
will be no farce in any sense of the
word. unless it is the colored fighter
who makes a farce out of it.
To the eye of the layman, the big
fighter is already in excellent condi-
ton physically. He is almost down to
weight and apparently there is no fat
upon him whatever. His flesh appears
to be hard and firm and it is easy to
see that he did not resign himself to
dissipation after his retirement from
the ring several years ago. The most
interesting feature on the program of
the afternoon was the exhibition the
champion gave of his training meth
DDS. He skipped rope. did some shad-
Ow boxing. pulled the weights, and
boxed three rounds with Sam Berger.
He appeared to be as fast on his feet
as ever. and the exertion and exercise
which he went through did not mater
tally, affect his breathing. Berger, who
is a pretty clever big man, was merely
a punching bag for the champion, as
jeff apparently was able to rap him at
will. The big fighter certainly looks
good to uphold his end of the coming
contest with the colored champion.
DIR. Roller Speaks.
DR. B. F. Roller, famed as the most
versatile of the great athletes. made an
Interesting talk during the course of
the program He earnestly defended
boxing, wrestling and the so-called
rough sports, and said that the men
who opposed them were for the most
part "boneheads" He cited few sta
tistics TO show that boxing and wrest-
ling are not nearly as dangerous as
some of the sports which are consid-
cred very fashionable, such as auto
MODELLING and hunting. He said that
the boys who engaged in rough sports
were the ones who rose TO the high
est places, as they learn that they must
come up smiling after each setback or
adversely which they meet with The
doctor is a wonderfully well built ath-
lete himself He has been pronounced
by many to be the most perfectly built
man among the athletes of the world
After his talk he put on Z wrestling

Tighe Believed to Have Ragged
a Prize in Paris Center
Fielder.
GREAT FAVoRiTE AT HOME
Sensational Work Makes Him Star of
the Blue Grass League the
Past Season.

Fred Ochs, the little center fielder
from Paris in the Blue Grass league
of Kentucky, popularity known as
Freddie seems sure of berth on
Jack Tighes Islanders of this year.
Following the announcement that Ochs
would be candidate for a position on
the team, The Argus received the fol-
lowing letter from the baseball author
tiles at Paris:
Too much cannot be said in praise
of the little center fielder, Freddie
Ochs. His sensational fielding, hard
hitting. and all around good playing
made him easily the star of the Blue
Grass league in 1909. He is 3 feet
inches high. weighs 155 pounds. and is
only % years old. Though small of
stature. he is mighty of arm and he
can whip the ball to the plate from
deep center with the best of them, as
his phenomenal record of so assists in
112 games shows He began playing
professional ball in 1907 with the K. l.
o. league, and the following year he
was drafted by Dayton in the Central
league. He remained there one sea-
son and then was sold to Paris because
of his refusal to play any longer under
the Dayton management.
Finishes with Fine Average.
"He played the season of 1909 with
Paris, where his work was watched

of 324 chances, and made IA runs in
112 games At the close of the season
he was drafted by Norfolk and later
sold to Rock Island. and Manager
Tighe is to be congratulated on having
secured him, as there are few young
players with a more brilliant future
ahead of them. His Paris admirers
will look for him among the big
