Next Tuesday the first invasion Of the
East will be witnessed in the American
League and many believe that it Will
spell the downfall Of the Chicago White
Sox. II Callahan's team can hold it's

Jimmy McAleer has a frown.

The passing Of Joe Boehling is a good
thing for the youngster. He goes to
Billy Smith. one Of Gods own noble
men. where he is certain to be well
treated and obtain that training impos-
sible to acquire on a big league bench.
The boy has much natural ability and
should have another trial in the fall

The Nationals have reached second
place and first position is within their
grasp. There is no particular reason for
believing the Climbers cannot attain
that coveted goal. either, for their game
is fast enough for the best team in the

LAST ROMANCE
Mrs. Talbot Chetwynde Mundy,
Once Famous English Beauty,
Secures Divorce.

New York, July 6.-The last romance
Of the once famous English beauty,
Mrs. Talbot Chetwynde Mundy, has been
shattered To-day she obtained a divorce
from her second husband whom she mar
ried at Mombassa. East Africa, after
being divorced by her FIRST husband in
1905
Broken in health ana spirits she hur-
ried away to a quiet country retreat TO
rest, preparatory to returning to Lon
don. where some fifteen years ago, FIRST
as a dashing bachelor girl and later
as the wife or the Hon. Rupert Cecil
Craven. brother of the Earl or Craven,
she led one of the smartest cIiques In
the fashionable set. Rumor has 1t that
she will go to Craven, who divorced her
in 1909 and beg forgiveness, for she de-
clares that she still loves him.
When she learned to-day that supreme
Court Justice Hendrick had signed an
interlocutory decree from Mundy, a
former English army officer. and now
writer. tears gathered IN her
eyes.
Il simply had to do IT," she said to
friend. Ever since my divorce rrom

but stick. Otherwise II Is disaster TO a

M'VEAGH'S OFFICE
is A QUIET PLACE
Andrew Incident Closed and Quie.
tude Reflects it.

Secretary of the Treasury Mscveagh's
office was quite quiet place yesterday.
and 1t gave a tone 10 the other Offices OF
the Treasury Department. which like
wise were placidly peaceful.
The offices seemed to reflect a state
ment by President Taft at Beverly that
so far as he was concerned the resigna-
zion of A. Piatt Andrew as an Assistant
Secretary Of the Treasury was a closed
incident
Beneath the surface, however, there
was yet a rife gossip about DR.. Andrews
resignation and the charges which he
had made incidentally to his surrender
ing of his billet. Part Of the gossip re-
volved around a report that Secretary
MacVeagh was to resign despite the fact
that Mr.. MacVeagh had positively and
directly denied such a report.
The denial of the Secretary was rather
corroboratcd by rumors as to the prob
able action OF Congress on the matter
Members of the House, II is expected
will be favorable TO Secretary Mao
Veagh. He used to be a Democrat, and
the House is Democratic now. It was
pointed out. and this fact. while it would
not determine, yet might reasonably
prejudice a Judgment OF the case II an
by House committee were
II is recognized. however. that DIR.
Andrew has powerful friends in both the
House and the Senate.

for the third party convention to be
held In Chicago. August s. The call
was completed late to-day. It ID
signed by more than fifty men. and

Senator Dixon said to-day the tight
for the Presidential election had al
ready narrowed down to a contest be-
tween Col. Roosevelt and Gov. Wilson.
Taft is now third in the race" he
said. He will remain third and We be-
lieve he will be very bad third on
November 4.
Col. Roosevelt's mail exceeds 500 let
tiers a day. and in addition he is receiv-
ing hundreds of kilograms from all
sections of the country, and the fight
is hardly begun. From indications
am led to believe the President will
fail to carry a single State. and in the
Western States he won't carry a Con-
gressional district. il present indica-
lions count for anything"

day were two delegates to the Nation

half within a short time, giving their
reasons for their determination to sup
port this progressive movement I
think there will be others. particularly
from Western States"
Senator Dixon added that Republican
Congressman in many Western States
were Planning TO run on the Roosevelt
ticket instead OF the Taft ticket.
They know he said. that on the
Taft ticket they will have absolutely no
show OF election. Consequently. they are
anxious TO run on the new ticket.
This holds true In States where the
entire Republican organization will not
come over to us in a body. We expect
that the organizations in at least eight
States will come into the new party. in

OCCUPIES SENATE
Closing Chapter in Long Fight
Is Now Being Written.

The Senate took up the Lorimer case
yesterday under the special agreement
which provided for vote on the case
before the close of the legislative body
OF July 6. The case was not disposed
of during the day and a recess was taken
until Monday. continuing the legislative
day. Senator Dillingham;, chairman Of
the Committee on Privileges and Elections.
opened the discussion. He did not COM
plete his speech. but merely covered one
phase of the case and will continue his
remarks Monday. 1t is expected that a
or Thursday. Senator Luke Lea of Ten
nessee, who is TO be heard on the case,
will be here Monday. number of other
speeches are yet to be made. including
that of Senator Lorimer himself
When the case was first taken up yes
terday. Mr.. Lorimer was not in the Sem
ate. His absence started a story that
he intended to resign without permitting
his case to come TO a vote In the Senate
But this report was soon dispelled when
Senator Lorimer walked into the Senate,
an hour after the debate had begun.
and took his seat and remained an at
tentive listener during the rest of the
debate. Once or twice the Senator from
Illinois rose to explain certain phases of
the case
The debate was free from sensational
Incidents. Senator McCumber. OF North
Dakota and Senator Myers Of Montana
also spoke on the case. Mr.. McCumber
expressed his opposition to trying Senator
Lorimer the second time. He argued that
1t would be a bad precedent II the Sem
ate should vote that Senator having
once been tried as to his right to his
seat that his case might oe reopened at
any subsequent time. according to the
temper or political complexion of the
Senate. He said that no man ought to be
put to his defense the SECOND time. Mr..
Lorimer had once defended successfully
his right to his seat.
Senator Myers, a Democrat. spoke briefly
In favor of declaring the seat vacant.

his possession, or conceal on board of
or transport on any foreign or domestic
vessel or other water craft or railroad
car or other vehicle destined to or bound
from the United States or any of the
possessions thereof, any smoking opium
or opium prepared for smoking" shall be
subject to the penalties of the law pro-
hibiting the importation of such drug
into the United States The bill pro-
vides that masters of craft shall not be
liable to the penalties of this act IL they
can satisfy the court Of their ignorance
of the presence of the prohibited drug
on board their vessel. and that they ex-
ercised due diligence to prevent its trans
portation on their craft.
The clause intended to assist other
countrieS in the suppression of the drug
evil prohibits the bringing into the
United States Of the drug for transpor-
tation to other countries or the use of
any place in the jurisdiction of the
United States as a station for trans
