New York. May 9.-Manager Chance
worked out a new plan of attack for
the Cubs during their long cross-coun-
try run yesterday. 1t includes shake
up both in the batting order and on the
infeld with a view to producing the
strongest attack.
Doyle will be kept at third, where his
work in the field and at bat has been
of distinctly major league caliber in
the few games he has played recently.
Zimmerman will go in at second until
Evers RECEIVERS. That three base hit
which Heine made in the tenth inning
Sunday had quite as much to do with
the managers decision to put him at
second as did the errors made by Shean
In the same tenth inning. In the new
arrangement Sheckard will be given
the task of setting the pace during the
absence of Evers. Schultz will be pro-
NOTED to Sheckards regular place sec
ond on the list.

flashed on the Giants today is as fol-

MANDOT BEATS
JACK WHITE

Memphis, Tenn. May SACK White
of Chicago was beaten in his eight
round bout here last night by Joe Man
dot. losing the decision. In the same
ring few weeks ago his brother.
Charley. lost to Mandot. and Jack
hoped to even up the score for the
White family. Mandot gained most OF
his points by clean fighting, and his
blows seemed to sting the Chicago boy.
His cleverness also evaded many of
Whites rushes. especially in the last
few rounds. when White made ,.es-
perate attempt to put over a knock
out blow.

There wasn't any fight left in the
White Sox after the fourth inning of
their battle with the Detroit Tigers
yesterday afternoon at the south side
park Ty Cobb and Sam Crawford
knocked IT out of them with a. triple
and double respectively, and from then
to the end the Sox played a sleepy and
listiess game, while the Tigers scamp
cred away with another victory, the
final score being to 2.
The game became SO one sided that
in thee losing round the Tigers actual
ly refused to run out their hits, as n
such means were the only way to put
an end to the contest. 1t seemed they
stopped the Sox in their attack with
scarcely an effort. They always were
in the right place to get the ball. They
scored their runs with ridiculous ease.
and Ty Cobb displayed such delightful
prowess on the base lines that the
crowd applauded him time after time.
There was nothing they could applaud
with their hearts. Nothing except the
pitching of Frank LANCE in the lone
second inning. In that round the Iron
Man" famed three in row, making

HOUSE VOTES TO END
TREATY WITH RUSSIA

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE Sui
yer joint resolution for the termina-
ti0n OF the treaty OF 1882 between
the United States and Russia because
of the latter's discrimination against
Jewish American citizens, passed the
houst last night. 800 to l. The one
atiye Malhy OF New York.
A practically identical resolution
by Senator Culberson of Texas, is
pending in the senate, and favorable
action of both houses would be neces-
sary to make either resolution effec-
tive.
Both the Sulzer and Culberson reso-
buttons would direct the president to
give Russia. Immediately, the years
notice necessary for the complete alb
rogation of the treaty that has been
in force nearly so years.
An attempt led by Representative
Olmsted. of Pennsylvania. to modify
the Sulzer resolution so as TO avoid
making the direct charge that Rus
sia has violated the treaty in refus-
ing to recognize the passports Of
American Jews, was defeated, 1874 to
liz. Prominent Republicans declared
that the house should not go on rec
ord as charging a violation of the
treaty, but should adopt language
stating that Russia had so construed
the treaty that the United States
could no longer be a party TO II.
The sentiments announced here to-
day" declared Republican Leader
Mann, ARE such that IL they were ut
tered in another parliamentary body
they might bring such resentment as
would provoke war"
Mr.. Mann added that II the United
States asserted that discrimination
against races was violation Of a
treaty II might weaken it's own atti-
fude oward the exclusion OF Orientals.
This ought not to be considered
IN any way an affront TO Russia" said
Mr.. Longworth. The United States
desires the friendship of Russia, but
this question is above and beyond
friendship: 1t is question OF nation

settled in Kingsburgh. She died
March 5, 1890, and was buried in Kill

Miss MacDonald's operetta deals
with that portion of the Scotch girl :;
life in which she met the Bonnie
prince and aided him TO escape, and
her subsequent love affair with Allan
Macdonald. Much of IL is founded
upon private records in the hands OF
Miss MacDonald's family in Nova
