Because of his ability to; hit the
ball hard, his speciality being
home runs, Jack Murray of the
Giants was dubbed Home Run"
Murray. Little was thought Of
his failure to hit in the first few
games of the worlds series, but
as he went hitless game after
game; it got on the nerves Of the
Giant supporters.
1t has been often said by base
ball players that the longest walk
in the world is from the home
plate to the bench after you have
struck out. No doubt Murray
believes in this. After Murray
whitfield at three of Jack Coombs'
offerings and been legally declar-
ed out by the arbitrator, he start
ed on the parade to the bench.
$50 that is Home Run Muir
ray" remarked a Philadelphia
fan, in voice sarcastic. The fan
had one of those penetrating
voices and no doubt Murray
heard it.

would start him in that direction

a popular fayorite in St. Louis be-
cause of his six victories in sever
starts. Much was expected of
him in 1911.
Just before the season opened,
Nelson suffered an attack of rheu-
matism that put him out of the
running until June, and made it
impossible to show his worth at
any time during the season. No
young pitcher ever showed more
promise, and his illness was a sad
blow to the possibilities of the
Brownies.
After a game in Cleveland one
day, friend with whom he passes
much of the time during the win
ter shutting the pasteboards,
stopped "Red" as he was leaving
the field. For want of something
better to say he remarked:
what kind of year are you
having, 'Red?'"
Knowing his friend was great
card player and not much of a
baseball fan, Nelson was in doubt
as to his meaning, but to play it
safe he replied:
GIVE had a bad arm all year,
but it hasn't affected my card
playing"

ARGUMENTS IN
TOBACCO CASE
Highest Court Hears the
Pleas Of Attorneys.
CALLED A FAIRY TALE

Counsel for Corporation So charac.
terizes Portrayal of ). c. Mercy
holds of the Department of Justice,
Who Asserted Tobacco Trust Was
Constructed Out of Fortunes of Dis.
heartened Competitors.
Washington, Jan. 10.-To listen to
the story of the tobacco business of
the world was the days work almost
exclusively of the supreme court of
the United States. First the govern
ment was to conclude it's tale of the
growth, wealth and power of the so
called tobacco trust" portrayed as
having been constructed out of the
fortunes of disheartened competitors
Then there was to be heard some
thing from the other side, by way of
defense, of the lawful acquisition,
through keen American ingenuity, of
tobacco industries. Upon it all de-
ponds the proposed dissolution of the
American Tobacco corporation as a
combination or monopoly in restraint
of trade.
J. c. McReynolds was to conclude
his opening argument on behalf of the
government
On Friday last both bar and court
followed him intently as he described
the trade in tobacco, first in the COLO
NAL days, with rival buyers coming
to the door of the farmers cabin to
barter for the leaf from his tobacco
patch, and then in the present day,
when he described competition in the
leaf market as so completely eradi-
Gated that the American Tobacco cor
poration even purchased leaf on CON-
mission for the British tobacco
trust"
THAT is as interesting as a fairy
tale" said one who had sat under the
spell of the speaker to Delaney Mic
oil, who was to open the argument for
the tobacco corporation.
1T is a fairy tale," remarked Mr..
Nicoll, as he jotted down a note for
reference in his argument Immediate
ly following Mr.. McReynolds.
After the history had been conclud-
ed there was much speculation as to
whether or not the court would ply
the attorney with questions, revealing
possibly the knotty points which may
have led to the assignment of the case
for reargument.

The postmaster general is directed
also to cancel any contracts held by
any person who gives undue prefer
ence to any particular persons, cor.
porations or locality, or any particular
description of traffic
The total expenditure in any one
year under the bill is not to exceed
S4,OOO,0OO and shall not, in any case,
exceed the amount of revenue re-
ceived from the foreign mail service
over and above the amount otherwise
paid for such service -..
The trainers of the bill believe that
it will break the present monopoly in
ocean transportation between the
United States and the principal coun-
tries of South America. It is regard.
ed as likely to create at least two
lines from the Atlantic coast to Brazil
and Argentina and line from Puget
sound and San Francisco to Panama
and the west coast of South America
These new services would require the
construction of from twenty to thirty
steamships, capable of a speed of at
least sixteen knots an hour and with
a gross tonnage of from 5000 to 49,
900, to be built on designs approved
by the navy department.
Under the terms of the contracts
the ships would have to be turned
over to the United States government
in times of war. Not one American
steamship is now running on any of
the routes covered by the bill.

POISON MYSTERY UNS0LVED
Wife Held Pending Investigation Be,
comes Stricken in Cell.


Pittsburg, Jan. 10-With George N
StrObacker, we'll known merchant of
Sheridan, recovering from strychnine
poisoning and the condition of his
wife becoming hourly more serious
the police are striving to explain the
latest phase of the poison mystery,
how the drug was administered to
Mrs. Strobacker while in cell at the
police station.
It was ten hours after the woman's
arrest that she was seized with con-
WILSON'S and the physicians at the
South Side hospital agree that the
poison could not have been given to
her before she was taken into GUS
tody. -, ...
Her condition became so critical
that it was necessary to remove her
to the hospital. where her husband
was taken Saturday afternoon. An
analysis of jelly spread on the bread
in the lunch Strobacker took with him
from home Saturday is said by the
physicians to have contained sufficient
strychnine to kill twenty persons and
that an overdose was ali that saved
Strobacker's life.

WOULD DECLARE
SEAT VACANT
Beveridge Submits Minority
Report in Lorimer Case.
LATTER CLAIMS INNOCENCE

Makes Brief Speech In Which He De.
MES Bribery on the Part Of Himself
or His Friends-President Taft Said
to Be Actively Interested in the Ef.
fort to Gust the illinois Member.
Washington, Jan. 1O.-The fight to
prevent Senator Lorimer of Illinois re-
tanning his seat in the United States
senate was opened with a contest be-
tween Senators Beverage of Indiana
and Owen of Oklahoma, both of whom
contested the right to fire the first
gun in the same cause.
Senator Beveridge, by virtue of be-
ing member of the committee on
privileges and elections, which investi-
gated charges of bribery against Mr..
LOrimer, gained a tactical victory by
filing a minority report attacking the
petition of his colleagues on the COM
mittee who voted to exonerate the
Illinois senator.
Senator Owen, however, introduced
a resolution to declare the election of
Senator Lorimer to have been illegal
and void, but he was not permitted to
address the senate in it's support.
The senate held that the resolution
under the rules would have to go over
for day. Mr.. Beveridge then sub.
mitted his report, the conclusion of
which was:
THAT this election was invalid un.
der any possible view of the law If
the senate so concludes it is our duty
so to declare. Therefore l submit the
following resolutions:
Lorimer Not Duly Elected.
Resolved, That William Lorimer
was not duly and legally elected to a
seat in the senate of the United States
by the legislature of the state of ILL
nois.'"
Before the report was filed Senator
Lor1mer made brief speech declar-
ing his innocence of bribery and the
innocence of his friends of any par
ticipation in corrupt practices in con-
nection with his election.
He announced his intention to be
present during the discussion of his
case.
President Taft is actively interested
in the Lorimer case and it has been
said that it was largely due to him
that Senator Burton of Ohio decided
to take a leading part in the fight
against the Illinois senator.
This mixing in by the president is
resented by some of the old school
senators, who contend that the SEN
ate and the senate alone is the judge
of the qualification of it's own mem.
bers. 1t is said that one and pos
sibly two speeches are in process of
incubation that will assail the presi-
dent bitterly along this line. Senator
Bailey of Texas and Senator Paynter
of Kentucky are named as two pros
pective defenders of the senate's pre-
negatives.

SOUTH AMERICA
Ship Subsidy Bill introduced
in Senate.
PRESENTED BY GALLINGER

Measure Forbids Contracts Going to
Any Bidder Engaged in Competitive
Rail Transportation, This Provision
Being Expected to Break Any
MonopoIy-Cost Limited to $4,000.
900 Annually.
Washington, Jan. Ex-senator Ja.
cob H. Gallinger of New Hampshire
introduced a revised ocean mail sub.
sidy bill which eliminates from pres.
ent consideration all transpacific lines
and applies only to the establishment
OF ocean mail services on routes to
South America, south of the equator
that is, to Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina,
Chile and Peru.
No special provision is made for
lines to the isthmus of Panama, be-
cause it is expected the canal will be
open for commerce by the summer of
1913, which is as soon as the proposed
new lines could be established. Steam
ships then can pass through the canal
on the long routes to the west coast of
South America.
AS in other bills presented, it is
proposed that the postmaster general
shall be authorized to pay for ocean
mail service on vessels of the second
class on South American routes, the
same rate per mile ($4) as is now paid
for service on vessels of the first class
between the United States and Eu-
rOpean ports. s-~.~'---
In order to serve the new commerce
which it is expected the canal will
open for the Southern states it is pro-
vided that if more than one line is es.
tablished from the North Atlantic
coast one of the lines shall touch at
least one port south of Cape Charles
for mail, passengers and freight on
the outward and homeward passages.
A provision, which is new in subsidy
bills, forbids the award of any con.
tract for an ocean mail line to any bid
der engaged in competitive transporta
ton by rail, or in the business of ex
porting or importing merchandise
Moreover, the postmaster general is
directed to cancel any contract, the
performance of which shall rest with.
in the control of any competitive rail
road company. or any person or per.
