u. S. HALF FREE SAYS
PRESIDENT WILSON
Signs Tariff, Saying Financial
Reform Now Needed.
MAKES A MODEST SPEECH.
Impressive Gathering as Executive At
taches Signature to Measure Which
Became Law at Midnight.

The Democratic tariff revision,
the second low tariff law that has
been put on the statute books in sew
enty-fve years, is now reality.
President Wilson signed his name
to tbs Underwood-Simmons bill at
9 10 O'Clock last night in the pres
ence of an impressive gathering.
Two hours and fifty minutes later, at
midnight, the new law went into
effect with the exception of a few
items.
With the last stroke Of the Pres
iGent's pen ending seven months OF
continuous labor on the part OF the
Democratic leaders and many years
of agitation, the President arose, and
facing the friends whom he had in
vited to witness the ceremony deliv-
cred speech In this address he
Served notice that the Democratic
party's task was only half completed,
its journey half finished, and that
currency legislation must follow at
this session Of Congress.
His signing Of the tariff bill, the
President said, was only the first
step in the freeing of American bus
iuess interests from the shackles that
had bound them. That freed)m in
the Presidents opinion, will not be
complete until the power to create
monopoly has been destroyed and this
power is lodged in a control of
credit
The President, in the speech
sounded a modest note so far as his
personal efforts were concerned, and
generously granted to others a richer
share of the honor, though with
Henri V. hs exclaimed: eff it be a
sin to covet honor, then am ] the most
offending soul alive.
The signing of the new tariff law
took place in the Presidents Office
At 9 O'Clock those whom the Pres;-
dent had invited to witness il passed
through the door of the Office. The
President, wearing a black dinner
coat, shook hands heartily with every
person entering.
Those present, included Majority
Leader Underwood, who had super

members of the Presidents Cabinet
and their assistants, the WAYS and
Means Committee of the House, the
Finance Committee of the Senate,
Senator Kern, the Democratic leader
of the Senate; the Presidents broth
er, Joseph l.. Wilson, of Tennessee,
and number of especially invited
guests.
Every person present see med deeply
impressed with the Importance of
the event about to take place. The
witnesses arranged themselves in a
circle about the Presidents desk. To
his left aud just behind him stood
Representative Underwood and Sen.

YALE AND HARVARD CREWS
MEET IN ANNUAL REGATTA
Of 46 Previous Races the University Crews Have Evenly D
vided-Wth New English Stroke, Yale
Hopes to Triumph.

New London, Conn. June 19.-The crews
of both Yale and Harvard universities
are, figuratively speaking, resting on
their oars tonight, for on the morrow
the rival eights and fours meet in the
forty-seventh regatta of the two New
England colleges In point of competition
these crew races hold precedence over ali
other forms OF dual sports In which the
teams of Harvard and Yale are accus-
toned to match skill and endurance.
Stretching back to the autumn of 1852
the history of the inter-varsity races
shows that with but a few exceptions
during the infancy of the sport, the oars
men have tested stroke and stamina each
year.
In point of antiquity, tradition and
prominence these regattas yield to no COL
lese contest in American sporting an
nails. Anteceding the football, baseball
and track meets now a. part of the an
nual athletic curriculum, the boat races
are in fact only overshadowed by the
historic series between the crews of Ok
ford and Cambridge which began in 1871.
Added interest is also given the regatta
cf tomorrow because of the fact that the
winning crew Will break the tie of VIC
| tories now existing as result of the
| forty-six races that have already be-
come part of the boating history OF
Harvard and Yale.
Have ROwed 46 Times
| Since the first race was rowed on Lake
| Winnipiseogee on August 3, 1852. the oars
! zen OF Yale and Harvard have matched
speed and strength 46 times. and the total
number of wins for each university is %,
showing how evenly matched the two
universities have proved during this
period of 81 years. Victories, how
ever. have not been 50 evenly apportIoned
| In the matter of years for both Harvard
and Yale have won and lost races in
groups of three or more as a rule.
Harvard, opening with a victory In the
initial contest, appeared to enjoy the eX-
rerience, for during the first % races
| Harvard won 15 to Yales eight. The Ellis
turned the tide in 1856, and from that
year until 1908 the regatta on the Thames,
| so far as the varsity eight cared crews
were concerned. saw the blue-tipped oars
| finishing first in every year except In
! 1891, 1899 and 1906. Then the pendulum
| swung to the Crimson again and for the
past five years Harvard has led the way
across the finish line.

From the Angle Of the Bug
by REUBEN A. LEWIS

has registered his fortieth stolen
cushion with the San Francisco
seals. Not content with a wonder
ful theft record Johnston is slug
ging with the leaders.
The wonderful progress OF the
former Baron is shown in the Sport
ing News by the San Francisco
correspondent:
Manager Del is beginning to
wonder where he will find a sat
1sfactory man one year hence to
I'LL the shoes of Jimmy Johnston.
For II this same Jimmy Johnston
remains in the Coast league more
than a single season, the followers
of the game who have seen man
after man go from here to the big
league will willingly set themselves
down as the most impossible
Judges of playing merit In the
world.
More than any other individual
player is Johnston responsible for
the unexpected showing the long
despised Seals have made. He has
set the pace, and the others, after
watching him in astonishment for
a few days, began to initiate him.
The, result has been a general in
crease in speed and a general re-
vival of effort.
Johnston has onlv recently got
into his batting stride. He is ton
ping .2S0 now and is still climb
Ing. lie has scored more runs than
any other player in the league,
and he not only leads in stolen
bases by a wide margin, but has
cha1ked up better than 40 steals for
the season, which is only third
over. Several games recently won
by the Seals have been won by
Johnston's scoring from second on
an infield hit or an infeld out. In
the final game with Venice in the
latest series he scored from sec
ond on a hit handled by the pitch
er. The ball rolled out of Spider
Baum's reach and he had to pursue
1t, but 1T was never more than 25
feet away from the plate.
San Francisco is simply John
ston crazy. The club is divided
into two parts for discussion. John
ston and the rest of them. And
Howard himself, Justly priding him
self on having picked Jimmy out
of the White SoX bunch as the
one available man he wanted, says:
Give me one more man like
Johnston and I'll win this pennant
by so wide a margin that it will
not even be a race"
That Jimmy will go up to the
big league next year is looked upon
as a certainty. If he doesn't, then
in general opinion there hasn't been
man who has gone up from the
Coast league in years who had a
license to remain.
The speed merchant was one of
the most systematic youngsters
who ever cayorted around the run
ways. When Johnston broke into
the Southern he related last sum
mer that he began study of the
pitchers windup. Carefully noting
the movement to first, the Baron
soon discovered the motions which
would allow him to steal
Although he could not sprint 100
yards in II seconds, the little gard
ener was the most wonderful base
runner in the league. A daring
hook slide was his greatest asset.
To one who has carefully watched
Johnston during the progress of
the game, it is noted that he al
ways was vigilant observer of the
pitchers.

ELBERFELD HURES A

Chattanooga, June 19.-Breckenridge's
wild throw on an easy chance, after two
were down in the third gave the locals
two runs. A single. a pass and Johnsons
double then made the total five for the
inning, enough to beat Nashville.
In the first inning a ball pitched by
Breckenridge struck Elberfeld's head with
an audible thud and rolled back into the
diamond. Breckenridge recovered the ball
and while Elberfed was recovering from
the shock tossed 1t to first This action
irritated the batsman, who threw his
bat at the pitcher. For this he was put
out of the game. Sommers held Nash

mined to go back to England for stroke

Consequently on the eve of the regatta
Yale is found with an English shell. an

men than Yale in tomorrow's contest.
Course Is Slow
Because of the sluggish tide, the
Thames course Is slow as compared with
the intercollegiate course at Poughkeep-
sic. The time of 20 minutes, 10 seconds,
made by Yale in 1888, still stands as
the Thames record. while the record for.
four miles lane on the Hudson river is
| is minutes SO and one-fifth seconds made
| by Cornell In 1901.
AS a marine picture, the Harvard and
Yale regatta on the lower reaches of the
Thames probably surpasses anything of
| Its kind in this country. Because of the
proximity of the Thames course to Long
| Island Sound, hundreds of steam, mo-
| tor and sailing yachts are able to OBJ
| tain good observation anchorages near
| the finish line. where for a day or two
| they are afiutter with crimson and blue

| and observation trains on either bank
keep other thousands abreast of the con-
test.
