Unlike Cincinnati. Richmond plans
to welcome Senator La Toilette with
open arms, and the public welcome ex-
tended the progressive leader will. in
all probability. be in charge of the
Wayne County Republican Central
committee.
Wayne county is recognized through
out the state as a progressive Repub-
lican stronghold. Probably for that
reason Richmond was one of the two
cities in the state selected by Senator
La Toilette to deliver an address in
during his western trip, which begins
next month.
No arrangements have yet been per-
fected for the La Toilette meeting, but
1t Is probable the Wayne County Re-
publican Central committee will Sc

speak in. 1t Is expected the big build

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-With today's
game called off this morning in Phila-
delphia. the baseball world, or what
is left of it moved up to New York
this afternoon. AS soon as the official
announcement had been published
Manager McGraw hastily mustered
his team and escaped from Philadel.
phia before another rainy day could
roll around.
The rain has necessarily pounded
upon the stands and field at Philadel-
phia and the chances are that even If
it ceases tonight Shibe park will not
be in condition for play Monday.
Whether the series ever can be finish
ed is becoming a more vital question
than which team can win. The wealth
er forecasters both here and at Phila-
delphia announce more rain tomorrow
Inasmuch as they predicted clear
ing weather through three days Of
steady rain you may copper their
guess If you desire.
1t was a sad. bedraggle bunch of
players and fans that came back from
Philadelphia today. Many of the fans
had made four round trips hoping to
see ball game and the Giants players
have lived for four days in hotel
filled with frenzied fans. The condi-
tions of the Giants at time did not
seem good. The players were peevish
and fretful and the nervous strain
seemed to be telling on them. They
were glad. however. to get back to a
city that considers them heroes in
stead Of being surrounded by, bugs
who want to see them beaten

THOUGH OPPOSED
TO CONCEOE POINT
Council to Discuss Water
Works Franchise in Pri-
vate Session.

When the city councilmen meet
Monday evening to discuss the water
works question in private session they
will do 50 partly against their per-
sonal convictions. The majority Of
the city fathers are adverse to dis
cussing the question in secret meet
ing as they favor an open session
where the public may know Just what
is said and done but Henry U. John
son, special attorney engaged by the
city to assist City Attorney Gardner
in the fight believes that he should
first express his views on the city's
chances to carry through a successful
fight.
Attorney Johnson will tell the coun-
Gil tomorrow evening Just what it can
make the water works company do
and what it cannot make it do. The
main purpose of the meeting will be to
hear Mr.. Johnson's opinion on the mat
ter as to whether the books of the
company can be inspected by the coun-
Gil, as provided for in the law passed
in 1909 in order that the city may as
certain the true valuation of the wa
ter works plant before a franchise 10
granted.
Council will then decide whether it
will attempt to force the company to
open its books to councilmanic In
vestigation or not. A few council
men believe from the attitude taken by
Attorney Johnson at the council meet
ing last Monday evening in refusing
to express his opinion on the question
as to whether the company could be
forced to pen its books. that they will
be informed that the city cannot do
this
In this event the work of council 20
far will have come to naught ~ coun-

Foreign officer is After the Money
OF an American Heiress.

New York, Nov 19.-Hugo H. Rit-

for Lieut.. Edouard stars, of the Aus
trian army. today filed a complaint in
the supreme court, in which the Aus
trian officer demands $4,000 from
Miss Helen McMurray Of this city, for
breach Of promise Of marriage.
In his complaint STARS says he met
Miss McMurray while she was IN
Vienna in August and September, 1910,
and that while in those cities she
promised to marry him, but later
broke her promise, and he wants
balm for his wounded heart.
Stars declares that he took years
leave of absence from the army to
please Miss McMurray, thereby loos-
ing his chance Of advancement to the
office of second lieutenant, and that
he sold his racing stable Of high class.

He also declares that he was com
PEELED to purchase at enormous cost
civilian outfit and evening clothes.
The reason of this purchase was be
cause restrictions of other countries
prohibited army officers from wearing
their uniforms while not on official
duty.
All this, he says, he was compelled
to do because his fiancee requested
him to be with her while she was in
France.
He also declares that he gave Miss
McMurray many heirlooms which were
OF intrinsic value, and he also de-
clares that he spent a large amount
of money sending her wreaths and
punches of flowers and roses. Final

solicitation of Miss McMurray and her

she was almost a wreck. Writing of
her condition at that time she says:
Last winter was completely run

take Vinol and it has done me great
good. The tired, WORKOUT feeling is

disappeared and now | eat heartily

every tired, weak, nervous woman
could have Vinol, for | never spent
any money in nv life that did me so
much good as that I spent for Vinol."
Thousands Of women and men who
were formerly weak and sickly owe
their present rugged health to the
wonderful strengthening effects Of
Vinol. If you are pale, weak, nervous
and upset you owe it to yourself and
your family to try Vinol. 1t will build
