Tables were again turned on the
local high schools aggregation on
the copper works diamond Saturday
afternoon when the New Brunswick
nine handed defeat to the local
schools team by the close score of IL
to IL. Two home runs made by
Levy and Goldberger, of the locals,
and a three-bagger by Captain Coley
were some of the features of the
game. Smith, of the visitors, show
ed real form but received very poor
support.
Lack of practice cost the local
team the price of victory, assisted by
the absence of "Coodie" Hunt, who
plays third base, and John McCreery,
who has left school. The score:

INTEREST IN INTER
CLASS GAMES OF H. s.

Since the High School varsity nine
is not making a very good showing,
the crimson and white followers are
looking towards the inter-cIass
games for interest and keen rivalry.
The 1912 boys who showed SUPERIOR
tty last year, are badly weakened by
the absence of McCreery, Smith and
Jensen. The first two having left
school and the latter having been
transferred. This will make the 9TH
er classes equally strong and a. spfr-
tied series VIII most likely follow.
The Freshmen class met Friday az
ternoon and elected Franklin Henry
as manager and John Hunt, former
grammar school captain, for their
leader. A game between the Jun
Tors and Freshmen Will most likely
be played Thursday to start tho
ter-class games.

NEW MEXICAN PLATFORM
 HEAVY WITH REFORMS
Today Nominations Are Expected to
 Be Made.

Mexico City, August 29.-Wearied by the exercise of their constitutional but hitherto unused right to nominate candidates for the presidency and vice presidency, delegates to the first na- tional convention of the progressive party late tonight adopted platform that sags beneath it's burden of re- forms. Tomorrow. it is expected. the nominations will be made.
 The first work was done in adopt ing the various blanks of the plat form Arranging the first one was accomplished only after a noisy de- bate. It provided for the strict main tenance of the Constitution of '57. Some delegate proposed that there be added the measure by which Benito Juarez brought about the separation of church and state.
 Delegates, jealous of the untram- melIed exercise of their civil rights, shouted their approval of the amend- ment. The more conservative called tttention to the fact that the prtnci- pie of these laws had been embodied in an amendment to the constitution and therefore the alteration in the plank was unnecessary.
 For more than three-quarterS of an hour, however, the doubting delegates vigorously expressed their opinions while those who remained silent con- tributed more abundantly to the cloud of tobacco smoke that had settled over the parquet in the Hidalgo theater where the convention is being held. In the end the plank, as written, was adopted.
 The convention pledged it's candi- dates to carry out the principles of anti -re- election and to work for re- vision of the election laws.

Voeiferous Farewell Upon His De-

Seattle, Wash. August 2s.-Home- ward bound. Admiral Count Togo boarded the Japanese liner Tamba Maru today and started on the last leg of his tour around the world. Am ericans and Japanese crowded about the wharf in an effort to get a fare we'll glimpse of the naval hero. When Admiral Towo mounted the gangplank the crowd cheered vociferously and he smilingly bowed his acknowledgement. The ship sailed at 10 o'clock.
 Admiral Togo saw for the first time the Percheron stallion Togo, presented him by Fred R. Keisel of Ogden, Utah. when he went aboard the ship today. He was greatly interested in the beau tifu1 animal and petted it.
 The demonstration at the wharf was insignificant with that given along the water front. as the Tamba Maru. with Admiral Togo standing on the bridge besidde her commander. moved slow ly along through the harbor. Every vessel in the bay footed it's whistle and nearby factories joined in the noise making.

Middletown. Conn. August 29.-That the officials of the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad are still of the opinion that the wreck which occurred south of here Sunday night in which one person was fatally hurt and sixty or more injured, was the re- suit of someone's having pulled the spikes out that held the rails, is evil denced by a statement issued tonight. The statement is as follows:

 Today's fuller details simply con- firm the railroads original statement of yesterday that the wreck was caus- ed by maliciously removing track fas- teners.@ The track itself is in first class condition and capable of hand ling much heavier power and equip ment than are being used on it. The three rear cars remaining on the rails and four more remaining alongside of the rails, do not indicate anything approaching high speed at the time of the accident.

 The sails were pulled as much as possible and a gasoline engine started, but it was not heavy enough to drive the boat against the heavy sea run ming and the boat drifted around until help went out from here and lowed her in.

WILL NOT DEAL WITH
 FEDERATED SHOP EMPLoYES.
This Attit,.4==.;sn1dieat by Illinois
 Central Officers.

Chicago, Aug. 29.-W. L. Park, vice president of the Illinois Central rail- road, tonight indicated that the off, cials of the road have determined not to deal with the federated shop en- ployes, representatives of whom now are here from the south.
 In an official statement MT. Park said:
 We received communication from the international union officials asking for a conference, and have said to them that we will meet accredited rep resentatives of organizations with whom we have contracts, to discuss matters connected herewith"
 Vice President Park refused to am- pfify the statement, but representa- tives of the labor unions said that the statement indicated a refusal to rec ognize the federation.
 Representatives of the unions spent the day in secret conference with the federation officials, but so far none of the organization has met with any railroad officials.
 conference between the railroad and the union officials will be arrang- ed as soon as all the labor representa- reach here. At that meeting an effort will be made to arrange meeting be- tween the road and the federation del egation, headed by McCreery, and the actual fight to gain recognition of the federation will be begun.
