GOODWIN is CONFIDENT
SAYS Rutland viii Have Club in Base
Ball League

The Rutland Herald this morning
published the following:
Referring TO the statement of the
Bennington Banner of Saturday that
it has been definitely decided to ex-
clude Rutland from the baseball
league composed of teams represent
ing Bennington, Hoosick Falls, n. Y,
Adams and North Adams, Mass. Ar
thur Goodwin, who proposes to start
a team here, takes exceptions to the
statement in question, and emphati
cally denies that his plans have fall-
en- though. The statement from the
Banner is quoted in another part OF
this paper IL is to the general effect
that Rutland had been denied admis-
sion because it was so far away as TO
necessitate long jumps, and to de-
plete the treasures of the Massachu-
setts teams. Ii continued that sche
dule had been arranged without refer
ence to Rutland.
MIR. Goodwin said last night that
his plans were by no means upset,
He said he was practically certain OF
admission to the league to the south,
and that the meeting tomorrow night
would be held Just the same, and an
organization formed for the purpose
of promoting a baseball team. Mr..
Goodwin said a majority of the teams
i'm the league were with him in his at
tempt to gain entrance, realizing that
his presence with a team from Rut-
land would mean money in their pock
cts. He added that the only real OPP
position to his purpose developed in
the North Adams team, which was r.
nancially in a very poor way.
so far from the other contestants
being against him, he declared they
were eager to get him in. The man
ager concluded with the sanguine
statement that he expected to be in
the league whether it was four,
FIVE or six team organization. Glens
Falls is yet TO be heard from, but is
expected to decide in a day or two

WANTED TO LIVE IN BOSTON
Mrs. Chubb Drowned Herself Be-
cause Left to MANAGE Farm.

Wolcott, May 25.-The body of
Mrs. Elmer Chubb, who committed
suicide by drowning in the Lamoille
river Friday, was found yesterday
morning not far from where it is
supposed she plunged in. Desponden-
cy is thought to be the cause. Mr..
Chubb, her husband, is in Boston in
the automobile business. She is al
so survived by four children.
Mrs. Chubb, who was 3S years olc,
had managed the farm on which she
lived with her parents, who are too
old to assist in the work. Besides
farm cares, her small children re-
quired attention. Since a neighbor
had returned from Boston, telling of
the expense incidental to living
there, Mrs. Chubb had not been in
good spirits because she had desired
to move there and live with her hus-
band

TWO MORE DEAD As
RESULT Of PIER
COLLAPSE
Total Number Killed at Long
Beach 35
HUNDREDS WERE INJURED
DAMAGE Suits to the Amount OF
over Million Are Filed
Against City.
HUNDREDS WERE INJURED

Los Angeles, May 26.-Prospective
damage suits aggregating probably
$1,000 900 or more and a grand jury
investigation engaged the attention
of city officials at Long Beach, CAL,
as the most imminent outcome OF the
disaster Saturday when 80 persons
lost their lives in the collapse OF a
portion of the municipal pier just af-
ter the close of the British Empire
day" pageant The list of dead,
which numbered 33 Saturday night,
was added to by the deaths of Mrs.
Z. c. Bush, of Long Beach and
Mrs. NJ. P. Mcdonald, an aged wo-
man of Compton, Cal, who succumb-
ed to their injuries yesterday after
noon. The list is expected to be fur
Their increased by the death of Miss
Marguerite Reed, II, of Long Beach,
whose back was broken and of Will
liam Cooper of Pasadena, one of the
two veterans of the Crimean war
who were in the van of the Empire
day parade.
While City Attorney Stephen Long
was occupied with the legal phase of
the ulSdSleI . dltSlIidNA yColSiuds,
Mayor |. S. Hatch, members OF the
city council and of the board of pub
lie works conferred with District
Attorney John ID. Fredericks with
reference to the grand jury inquiry
which will be started either on or
just before the coroner's inquest to-
morrow The object of the inquiry
is to fix responsibility for the condi-
ton of the pier, a section of which
in front of the municipal auditorium
went down under a weight of human
beings which has been estimated at
less than $50 tons.
The grand jury investigation was
demanded by the officers of the unit
ed societies of British-born residents
and visitors whose celebration of
Queen Victoria's birthday anniver-
sary was interrupted by the accident.
All but the most seriously injured
were removed TO their homes in Los
Angeles and neighboring cities yes
terday. The total number of injured
probably never will be known accur-
ately, about 65, however, were seri-
ously hurt.

BENNINGTON BEAT
ADAMS I TO | IN
OPENING GAME
"Cy' Ferry's Men We're Weak
with the Stick
NEW PLAYERS LOOK GOOD
Best-Ballanced Aggregation That
Has Opened Season In Local
Baseball History.

Bennington won the first game in
the Northern Tri-State league series
yesterday by defeating Adams a,
Fowler park z to /. The game was
not by any means a thriller" but it
tunity to see the new players in &C
ton and the general verdict was that
the Vermont team was an active
well-balanced aggregation. McHugh
| at third, Conley at short and Edgar
in center field all showed up we'll.
Some good ball teams have been de-
veloped in Bennington in recent
years, but it is to be doubted If the
club has ever before played an open
ing game with such good material.
The ground was too slow for fast
ball playing. The dead diamond not
only hampered the infielders but it
checked the speed of batted balls
and thus took the snap out Of the
game. The field, however, is in
much better shape than at the time
of the early games year ago and
will improve as soon as the sun alb
serbs some of the moisture.
''Cy" Ferry's men were beaten
through their inability to hit Connol-
ly. the big fellow from Roxbury,
Mass, who was on the mound for the
home team. Adams made but two
singles and a double and no two of
the hits came in the same inning.
On the other hand, Bennington be-
gan to find Martin in the fourth in
ming and kept at it for the remand
er of the game. Neither team
scored during the first three periods.
In the fourth. with one down, Caro-
Ian hit through the diamond. Pitch
er Martin advanced the Bennington
first sacker by a balk. The balk
seemed to worry Martin for he was
hit for a double by Conley and a
single by McHugh. putting two Ben
nington runners across the plate.
Martin had another disastrous
period in the sixth. An error a.
passed bali, a free ticket and a sacri-
fee put two runners on second and
third. Three singles in a row gave
Bennington four runs.
Bennington scored again in the
eighth on Edgar's o-bagger and
singles by Connolly and Prindle.
Adams made a lone tally in the
eighth when Carney was given al
base on balls and was scored by Jay
Burns long drive to center field for
two bases. The score:

Editor Said Colonel Frequently
Got Drunk
WILL TRY TO PROVE IT
Big Array of Witnesses Who Will

Temperate.
WILL TRY TO PROVE IT

Marquette, Mich, May 26.-At
o'clock this afternoon, the scales
of justice were weighed in the Cir
cult court of Marquette county with
the editorial assertion of Publisher
George A. Newett that Theodore
Roosevelt gets drunk" and that not
jdfrequently on one side, and the lat
ter's declaration that the charge is
untrue and libelous and the proper
basis for punitive damages in the
sum of $4,000.
Judge Richard c. Flanagan of Nor
way, Mich, arrived here yesterday.
Judge Flanagan was of the opinion
that as only four challenges are al
lowed eA~n side the jury might be
sworn in before night.
The judge sad that as women sell
dem attenu court he was determined
they should have fair show at the
present trial. He reserved half of
the main floor seats and the entire
balcony for them. The Roosevelt
party. including lawyers and several
witnesses arrived this morning. Col
Roosevelt will be the guest of Geo.

Marquette. Mich, May 25.-A
strong fight will be made by the de-
tense in the trial of Col Theodore
Roosevelt's civil libel suit against
George Newett, editor of the Ishpem-
ing Iron Ore, who published an edi-
torial during the presidential cam
paign last fall charging that Roose-
welt mot infrequently" got drunk.
The trial will begin Monday.
The belief out here is that political
enemies of the colonel are support
ing Newett in his decision to fight
the case to a bitter end. 1t is said
that these enemies have searched far
Tor witnesses to be used against the
ex-president.
Roosevelts attorneys have not the
slightest idea as to the shot that is
to be fired into their camp from the
witness stand. They do not appear
to be anxious about the outlook, al.
though they admit that the plaintiff
may be embarrassed by lack of op-
portunity to get witnesses who could
TESTIFY to unexpected allegations.
Roosevelt relies mainly on the
long list of prominent men who have
known him for years, and whose
standing in the nation is such that
they cannot be questioned.
1t is said that the newspapers in

MoNARcHs WITNESS WEDDING
Emperors Of Three Nations at Prin-
cess Louise's Nuptials.

Berlin, May 25.-Three emperors
and gathering of lesser royal per
sonages, forming altogether the most
notable assemblage, which Europe
has seen in many years, watched
yesterday the marriage of the kais-
ers only daughter. Princess Victoria
Louise Adelheld Mathilde Charlotte,
to Prince Ernest Augustus, son OF
the Duke of Cumberland.
The bridegroom is expected soon
TO be made Duke of Brunswick, ruler
of an independent duchy, as part Ia
the kaiser's plan to bridge over the
gulf of so years which has separated
the Hohenzollerns and the Guelphs.
The marriage is regarded as the seal
of the reconciliation between the two
families estranged by the old Duke OF
Cumberland's disapproval of the new
order of things in Germany by which
his claim to the title of King of Han
over was set at naught.
The fact that the little princess,
whom all Germany had idoliZed since
her Childhood, was contracting love
match, one that would smooth over
bitter quarrel, and that the rulers OF
two of the greatest nations OF the OLD
World had come to be present at the
ceremony, made all the kaiser's SUD
jects forget everything else. Since
the arrival of King George and his
consort and the car of all the Rus
sias. Berlin has given itself up to gaz
ing on the unwonted gorgeous dis
play of dazzling uniforms in the
streets as the officers forming the
suites of the soverigns and the rulers
of the German principlities dashed TO
and fro between the palace and the
hotels where the royal guests to the
wedding have been installed.
