OWLS NO. TEAM
 HITS A FAST GAIT
Three Rollers Top the 100 Mark for
 Averages in Match.

Owls duckpin team No. l scored a victory over Owls team No. on Fri day evening at the Donovan alleys, leading their rivals by 1854 total pinfall and taking all three strings with ease.
 By the way the Owls No. l are cleaning up things in the duckpin line locally they will soon run out of op
 ponents unless some new experts on the alleys arise tp give them battle. All though they had soniy four-man team match on Friday night three ofs the four were at their top form for. the season, crowding well over the 100 mark when their high figures would do the most good, and the same three each got into the s00s for individual total. which meant an average of 100 for each of them
 Futile shot them over for 8 single of IA in one of his strings, total 301, Donahue made it 112 high single and BOP three string total, while Sullivan left his partners in the rear with single of 120 and total of 307. Teams that want to get on a match with the Owls will probably find no trouble in fixing on a date. The scores:

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
SAGGING OF PRICES. Buying Checked Because of impend- ing Message of President.

i New York, Dec. 1-Politics and money rates were the foremost con- alterations today in Wall street Poli- l tics were brought to the fore princi- next week. Call money was still held | at figures much above the levels which 1 have prevailed for several months. un- | til the last few days. Loans were placed as high as six per cent, the maximum reached on Wednesday. Both these influences were bearish, and speculative sentiment correspond ed. The pressure which has been di- of the week was conttHued and prices sagged, although losses were not heavy.
 For the first time in almost a year out of town banks were extensive lenders of money in this market The high rates for call money attracted much of this outside capital. espe- ciaIIy from New England and the mid de west. Interior banks are stronger than local institutions, whose resources are threatened with further depletion this week by reason of the continued outflow to Canada and the Pacific coast. The movement continued to- day with the shipment of S5o0,000 to San Francisco, bringing up the total loss during the recent outflow to ST. 270,000. Known movements of money for the week indicate a cash loss by the banks of between $5,000.000 and s7,0o0,000. In view of the continued loss by the banks. less confidence was shown today of a speedy return to low rates than was expressed when rates first began to stinen-
 The effect of political considerations upon the market was 1aregly negative. Traders displayed the reluctance to buy stocks which is usual when the converting of congress and the pubh- cation of the presidential message are close at hand. Northern Pacific was the conspicuoCely weak issue of the list, at one time ruling two points be- low the previous close. Trading was chiefly in the railroad stocks. and the pressure against them was insistent during the morning, although losses in most cases did not exceed a point. In the last half of the session the market became dlll. and toward the close cov- ering brought about some improve ment.

Former Brown HaIfbacLe Scents Re-
 turn to Brute Strength.

Madison, Wis. Dec. IA return to the old days of "brutalized" football and an unfair advange on the side of the heavier teams is predicted by Charles Mccarthy Of this city, former all-AmericaR halfbaclx, of Brown uni versity.
 Mir. McCarthy of this city, former a1l-American halfbaclk, Brown uni versity.
 MT. Mccarthy believes he scents a movement to nulliy the regulations now in effect. He points to numerous defeats and ties of large teams east and west as proof of the fact that the present rules tend to eQualize playing conditions and conduce to fairness.
 "The big colleges have begun the agitation to cut down the distance to be gained on three downs" said MT. Mccarthy. They have been beaten so repeatedly lately that they wish to return to old conditions

ooMPERs FEARFUL.
Declares That the Cause of Labor Has
 Been Imposed Upon.

New York. Dec. IT am astound- CT; l am astounded; my credulity has Teen imposed upon It iSpa bolt out of clear sky" The exclafnations were those Of Samuel Gompers, president oi the American Federation of Labor, when advise1 on a train tonight os the pleas of guilty fin the McNamara cases.
 If this is aIl true. my credulity has been imposed upCn," he declared. T am asrounded at this news. We have had the gravest assurances given to us by every one connected with tho trial, either directly or indirectly, that these olen were innocent"
 Asked If he would have anything to say about the prisoners personally, the labor leader replied:
 No: I shan't add to their misery by condemnation of them.'
 N nat effect do you imagine this will have on the labor unions?" was queried. To this MT. Gompers snap ped his fingers and calculated:
 When the fund which has been rais- ed by the American Federation of La for the defense of the men charged with the Los Angeles crime was men tfoned, MT. Gompers said that to date the fund amounted to about $190,000, and 1t had been turned over to the chief attorney for the defense. The collection, he said, was still going on. He added that. in the light of today's
 
 would be refunded.
 'I don't wish to mention Burns" he said derisively He denied. however, that he ever charged Burns with planting the dynamite at Los Ange- les, as Burns has insisted. As ne made ready to leave the trair at fhe Penn sylvania terminal in this city, his eyes were filled with tears.
 When the train reached the station, MT. Gompers sought the waiting room and rather excitedly requested a DOT ter to bring him a glass of water. T ms rked, and exhibited considerable impatience because the water was not brought to him quickly enough. Those two men must have been crazy. It is an act that l condemn with all the force that is in me-"
 Mir Gompers was asked again if he believed that today's developments would fnjure the cause of labor. Tears again came.
 "They are not going to do it any good,' he a lmitted huskily. But I want 10 repeat that the cause of labor has been imposed upon, both by sup posed friends and enemies. The men of labor were led to believe that the hoys were innocent and they acted on that belief. I received letters from them myself protesting their innocence and 1t was only last September that I visited them in their cells in the Los Angeles jail when they asked me to deliver a message to the labor interests of the country that they were innocent men,"

 Noted Safebreakers.

Detroit, Dec. 1-When James E. Me Namera and Ortie F.. McManigal were arrested here, on April I2 last, the public gained no knowledge of the charge against the prisoners. Even the Detroit police who assisted the Chicago detectives in making the ar rests were kept in the dark so far as any suspicious at Los Angeles against the men were concerned. The prisoners were hurriedly taken to Chicago and it was not until April 22 that their alleged connection with the destruction of Los Angeles Times building was made public In Chicago.
