HUDSON RIVER PIERS
Are Re-ocatsd by Sec. Stimson-Riv-
er's interests Protected.

Washington Feb. 6.-Secretary Sims II,
today, approved changes in the pier head
lines on both sides of the Hudson river
at Hoboken which he believes finally Will
insure the Hudson river from further en-
croachment and afford basis for the p r
nanent adjustment of the long standing
controversy between the local and nation
al governments over the location of The
piers.
After correspondence between himself
and Mayor Gaynor, which the secretary
regards as sufficiently binding upon the
city and state of New York, he has Ie-
located the pier lines so as to provide for
the longest piers in what are now the
broadest reaches of the river, taking the
precaution to embody the agreement in
the form of memorandum TO be filed in
the war department.
BY its terms, the secretary approves
the report of the harbor line board so as
to permit the strengthening of the pier
headline on the New York side between
the Battery and the foot of Gansevert
street permitting the construction OF
piers over 1860 feet long therein and also
Strengthening the pier headlines on the
New Jersey side of the river between the
Morris Canal basin and the foot of Fifth
street III Hoboken, The latter will per-
init the necessary accommodations for
the Hamburg-American Line and the
North German-Lloyd Line without mar
rowing the river gorge, while the former
extension will accommodate the Interna-
tional Mercantile Marine Co. after its

DRINKING IN PUBLIC
NO JOKE FOR FIELDS,

That ordinance No. 654, enacted by
the city council a month or two ago,
is not an April Fool JOKE was proved
Tuesday morning when Judge Creag-
er assessed the minimum fine which
the statute provides against NJ. w.
Fields, he having violated the provis-
ion that prohibits drinking in public
places. Fields was quenching his
thirst from a bottle of liquor in the
view of the public on Sixth street, all
against the peace and dignity of the
commonwealth, and when hailed be-
fore the court he was let off with the
lightest possible fine in view of the
fact that this was the first arrest un-
der the ordinance.
The ordinance prohibits drinking
liquor in any public place in the city
except in licensed saloons.

CLOUD OVER GRANTS
PASS BASEBALL sun.

Before a crowd numbering CSC
persons the Chicago Colored Giants,
suspected by many to have been un-
der at least double-wraps. yesterday
afternoon at the A. A. c. grounds
defeated the Grants Pass baseball
team by a score of 3 to nothing.
Manager Foster of the Giants
smilingly deprecated any suspicion
that his team did not do its best.
%We nevah win by much noah tan
three runs" he graphically declared.
"Yoh all see, we just must win
though, as our continued VICTORIES
are out best advertisement.
The game itself was an extremely
enjoyable one, as it abounded in some
sensational catches, and the crowd
had much good-natured fun with
Foster, the fat manager of the
Giants, who pitched the first five in
nings for his club, and also exchang-
ed happy banter with Second Base
man Monroe, the namesake of the
fifth president holding easily his own.
Baker made a circus catch of a
foul-tip, clutching the spheroid with
the nails of two fingers; AL Schmidt
and Guy Smith distinguished them
selves by remarkable running catches,
and Ray Crawford, evidently an ant
eater in some other life, evinced par
tiality for digging every put-out he
made out of the dirt.
In the fifth, with the score 8 to 0,
Foster, the corpulent heaver-man-
ager Of the Giants, who makes Frank
Capp look like a museum skeleton,
gave the crowd chance to see some
of his other Brazilian-dyed lumin-
aries perform, sending Johnson to
the hillock in the sixth and Lindsay
in the eighth, both showing speed
and class. Petway, the marvellous
catcher, gave way to his substitute,

and with the support and cunning be-
hind old man Foster-he has been
pitching IS years-the score would

BASEBALL EXCITEMENT
is CAUSE OF APOPLEXY,

Isaac Smith, who lives on West ]
street, suffered a stroke of apoplexy
while witnessing the ball game We'd
nesday. His son, Guy Smith, was
playing in left field for the local team,
and when one of the colored Giants
from Chicago lifted the ball into deep
left, Guy made a spectacular running
catch, the crowd cheering the play.
The excitement of the moment af-
fected the elder Smith, who was sit
ting in the grandstand, and he suf-
fered the serious stroke Physicians
who were in the stand gave the un-
fortunate man immediate medical at
tention, and he was resting easy at
the last report
