That Tulsa could start off the sea-
son with a high class baseball club
in case she procured berth in an
Oklahoma State league as proposed,
seems assured. H. " Beckley, who
offers to take out a franchies in such
a league, build ball park and finance
a team, has received scores of letters
from all parts of the county in
which baseball players and managers
some Of them with established repu-
tations, are asking for the privilege
OF being connected with the Tulsa
team. Yesterday the sporting editor
received communication from Geo.
McAvoy, eX-manager of the Sapulpa
Western Association club. McAvoy,
is at Ardmore and has options on a
number of good players, whom he
would like to place with Tulsa club
this year, as well as himself. They
are Scott, of last years SGpulpa team
Reed Bradbury. Wilson of the old
Muskogee club; Tanner, Gray. Patter-
son and Reynolds also of the old Sa-
pulpa team, and number of others,
not so well known locally.

Wouldn't it be nice If some Of these
crack bowlers in the Tulsa league
could frame up a team and enter the
twelfth annual tournament of the
American bowling congress to be held
in Chicago next March? There will
probably be 700 clubs entered in the
series. Chicago will have 200 clubs
entered. Secretary Flenner has is
sued no less than 10000 entry blanks
to all states in the union. A Tulsa
team by entering in the tournament
could spring into the limelight and
give Tulsa some mighty good adver-
tising. Why not?

FILING REQUIRED
 FOR FREE BRIDGE
SUPT. HART INSPECTS TIMBER IN VICINITY OF BRIDGE
 SITE
Surveying Begins Today and Piles Will Be Driven as Soon as
 Equipment Arrives.

John F. Hart, in charge of the con- struction work on the Free Bridge which is to span the Arkansas river near Pine Bluff, has lost no time since he arrived in the city last Sun day. In company with MT. Meier nan, who will do the substructure work, MT. Hart yesterday traversed the woods in the neighborhood of the bridge site in search of timber suit able for piling.
 A large quantity of piling will be required in the construction of the bridge, part of it for temporary use, and part of it to go into the peaman- ent structure. Mr. Hart desires to se- cure timter of good quality and speci- fled dimensions, preferably cypress. It is also desired to get the piling as close to the bridge site as possible. With this in view the construction men visited several lumber camps in the vicinity, looked at lot of timber, but did not make any selections.
 The surveying at the bridge site will begin today. This part of the work will be carried on by C. F. Rag an, an engineer of the firm of He'd rick & Cochran, of Kansas City. Mir. Ragan arrived Monday from Shreve- port where he has been engaged in the construction of bridge across the Red River
 Superintendent Hart says they will begin to drive piles as soon as their equipment is received. A trestle will be erected across a small stream which flows into the Arkansas at that point in order to facilitate the movement of the pile drivers. Then the work of driving piles across the river will go ahead with rush to permit the subst:ucture men to sink their cais- sons.

Boston, Septemper 24.-Charles Nagel, Secretary of Commerce and Labor, today formally opened the Fifth Internali iena Congress of Chamber of Commerce and Industrial Asscc aticns.
 His keynote speech was delivered to an aud ence of over 700 delega fes, two-thirds of whom came from for eign countries Among the countries repres nted were the Argentine Re public, Austria, Hungary, Belg una Brazil, The Brit: sh Empire, Chiie, China, Columbia, Ecuador, France, Germany, Greece, Guatemala, Hol- land, Honduras Italy. Japan, Mexico. Nor vay, Portugal, Roaman Russ a, Switzerland, Sweden and Turkey.
 Mr. Nagel's address was delivered in Enel sh, copies in other la9 qua ges beins distributed among the dele gates. He reviewed the past work of the international congress with ref aerence tc the unificat'o on of interna tionai trade forms and laws and pre- Gictal that through this body the shipment of goods between the conn- tries of the world ould ultimately be- come smooth and unhampsred by petty restr. ctions as in the in er- state commerce of the United States.
 Secretary Nagel was followed by Louis Canon-Lagrand, president of the. congress, who pleaded for the re- form of the calendar and the estab- fish Ment of fixed date for Easter. MT. Canon -Lagwand stated, that :he Holy See aad been sounded and he knew, from reliable source. that he Holy See had submitted the question for ,ne cons dera ion of the cengre- gat on on rites.
 The president suggested that the delegates to the permanent commit tee in charge of this matter work iE their respective countries in support of the calendar reform. He said that banks and commerc al houses could give and would give willingly sheir support of such project.
 The establ: shlnent of fixed da e for East and the reform of the calen- daT was entered upon during the sec end international Congress of Cham bers of Commerce and Industr.a al As sociations. The reform was urged because the variability of Easter carried with it long list of church holiday shipments matter of some uncertainty. It was further urged because of the present arrangement of days and weeks makes the calcu- lati2n of exchange, interest and fore closure. subjects of confusion.

MURDERS NOT
DUE To STRIKE
Family Of Four Killed in
italian Section.

Lawrence. Mass. Feb. 3.-Discovery
of a quadrnple murder in the foreign
section Of the city some time early yes
terday morning indicates the crime OF
either a maniac or some person wfeak-
ing a terrible vengeance for some real
or faneied wrong.
The victims were Mr.. and Mrs. 10
seph Savora. Mrs. Annie Dennis. who
boarded with the couple, and an I'M
Identified man. The arst supposition
was that the crime had TO do with the
textile strike. and 1t was rumored that
the four people killed were strikers
who had either returned TO their work
in the mills or bad expressed an inten-
ton OF so doing. The police made a
personal request Of the newspaper re-
porters o to send out any reports UNI
til a thorough investigation had been
made to determine If the crime had
any connection with the strike. When
this had beer completed 1t was an
nounced that none Of the -four persons
killed was a mill operative. and their
murders had no bearing upon the labor
trouble here.
The murder occurred ia the fourfam-
lily tenement house at 1877 Valley street.
In the section where many mill hands
live.
None Of the victims was more than
twenty-five years old.
The murderer. after killing the four.
must have attacked the bodies with
maniaeal fury after they were dead.
for each body was covered with wounds
and their throats cut repeatedly.
Miss Ida Muselin, who has a room ON
the same floor as the Savora suit and
through whose suspicious the police
visited the house. was fhe only person
who could give any information. She
said she wxs awakened by a disturb
ance in the Sa+ora fat. followed by
screams and groans. Then she heard
some n run downstairs and, looking
from her window. saw q mar In his
shirt sleeves leave the building and vi
up to Valley street. She thought he
had a long knife in one hand.
