Col. Charles C. Weber has been

and either he or Manager James
Power will receive contributions for
the club. President Weber announces
that the success OF the 1911 season
depends entirely on whether the
town supports the team with fnan-
cial aid. The Metuchens are a fast
team and can play good ball and all
games will be played at home If it
can be made to pay. If the games
are not patronized the above sched-
nle will be modified and some of the
games will go out of town.
Metuchen likes baseball but in
times gone by has failed to put up
the coin. Plenty of fans turned out
but they fought shy when the hat
was passed. This kind of business
won't go this year.

Nashville, Tenn, Jan. 23.-Strikins

for Luke Lea the United States sen.
atorship in the fight in the Legislature
over the seat soon to be made vacant
by James B. Frazier. At ten O'Clock
this morning Lea said he would moi
allow his name to be used today. Al
eleven o'clock the fusionists had de-
cided to vote solidfy for one candidate
but whom they did not know. At II 80
they had decided to leave B. A. Enloe
who they had been supporting, and 60
to Lea, who had just given his con-
sent to being put in the race. He was
elected at 1880.
When the last Name had been called
OH the roll call Of the joint session he
lacked one vote, but member who
had refused to vote went into the Lea
column and later two we're changed,
giving him two more than the neces-
sary sixty-six to elect.
Lea received practically the solid
vote of the independent democrats and
republicans. His. victory is one for pro-
hibition, and is 4<Sstinct defeat to the
Patterson wing of the party. Lea has
been hard fighter for prohibition and
has taken part in loca campaigns on
the side of what was usually termed
reformers.

Chicago, ILL.,, Jan. 29-Caution III
the extension of federal control over
the issuance Of securities by railroads
was urged by Marvin Hughitt, chair
man of the board of directors of the
Chicago, & Northwestern railroad, in
the initial hearing in Chicago today of
the railroad securities commission. The
commission appointed by Taft to in
vestigate the practicability of the fed
eral law to regulate capitalization of
railroads resumed its sessions here,
after meeting in New York and Wash
ington. Hearings in the west will be
concluded Friday, after which the COM
mission will adjourn to meet in east
ern cities. Although he courted wide
publicity in the affairs of railroads, and
jurisdiction over railroad development,
Hughitt declared that the government
should 90 slowly in imposing any new
restrictions. The Chicago & North
western railroad has charters in three
states. he said. To allow the federal
government to impose another regula-
ton might create a conflict of authority.

en- positions against the confirmation OF
Judge William Hunt, now serving as

peals, and promoted to circuit judge

When his case was called up in the

position his friends did not press the
case, although all of the others ap-
pointed to circuit judgeships for service
on the new court were ordered report
ed favorable. Judges acted upon were
Robert w. Archibald of Pennsylvania,
John F. Garland of South Dakota, and
Julian w. Mack of Illinois. .,
Judge Martin A. Knapp, former
chairman of the interstate commerce
commission, was congrned before the
holiday recess for presiding Judge.

whom there were no contests, are ex-

soon as those reported today are con-
6rmed. 80 a~,-' ~'~ ...-s
Soon after the appointment of Judge
Hunt was sent to the senate, charges
were gled against him by Montana land
owners, who alleged that while serving
On the federal district bench there he
had aided the smelling interests by de-
laying court proceedings brought by
land owners, who complained that their
property was being injured by fumes
from the Anaconda smelter. The ef-
feet Of the charge was to cast reAec-
tions upon Hunts integrity by seeking
to show that he had been subservient to
influences.
The subcommittee took up the
charges against Hunt and made an in
vestigation, which resulted in two re-
ports to the full committee, the ma
jority being in favor of his comfrma-
ton. When the full committee consid-
cred the case today, the democrats are

GOVERNMENT HAS

OF custom DUTY
Investigation has Disclosed
That Tobacco Trust has
Been Gamer
(8y Associated Press.)

New York, Jan. 23-The Tribune
will say tomorrow that country wild,
investigation by the treasury depart
| ment, it is said, has disclosed discrep
| ancies i'll the statistics of the tobacco
imports from Cuba, which have de-
prived the government of between s.,
coo GEO and S., 900, 900 annually for the
last FIVE years.
According to the Tribune, the tobac.
co trade statistics show that pure Ha-
vana cigars must have six per cent
wrappers, while tn statistics of the
treasury department show a fraction
under one-fifth of one per cent of Gu
ban importation paying duty as wrap
per-
Advance reports on this investigation
show, it is said, that Cuban importa-
tions have been admitted under clas-
sifcation which in the fiscal year end
ing June 30, 1909, deprived the GUS
toms house of between So, 900, 900 and
s., 0oo, 900, and it was said today by
the treasury department officials that
approximately the same sum had been
lost to the government for at least the
past five years.
From the investigation thus far,
however, it was the belief that this
loss was more in the matter of long
established trade custom than fraud.
Collector Loeb is quoted as saying,
I'VE know that the tobacco trade has
been getting the best of us, but the in
vestigation has not proceeded far
enough to determine yet to what ex-
tent"
The probable result of the inquiry,
Loeb continued, would be an amend
ment TO the customs regulations.

IS NOT, CHANGED
(9y Associates Proes.)

Albany, N. Y, Jan. 23.-The fifth
ballot for United States senator today
showed no change in the deadlock that
has existed since last Tuesday. Today
most of the democrats could see but
two ways out of the difficulty. One
was a radical change in Governor Dix's
attitude of non-interference; the other
was the elimination of William F. Shee-
han through his withdrawal from the
race or the desertion of his cause by
the New York county delegation. On
the surface there was nothing to show
that either was probable.
The tactics pursued by the Sheehan
supporters indicated that they have set
tied down for long siege.
