PLANS FOR RALLY
AT GETTYSBURG.
President to Make specialization to
Charleston, Union Army's Rep
resentative, Talks of Pro-
gram lor Blue and Gray.

Charleston, March 9.-Eli Torrance
of Minneapolis, past commander-in-
chief of the Grand Army of the Re-
public and chairman of the Union
army committee appointed in 1909
to arrange for the semi-centennial
observance of the battle of Gettys-
burg, who is a guest for few days
in this city, made known the probable
programme that will be carried out
at the celebration July 1, 2, and a
next. Declaring that some complica-
tions might arise, and considering
possible oposition which might vary
the proposed arrangements, Gen. Tor
rance said nevertheless, that it was
the intention of the committee to
have the president of the United
States deliver an address, the only
address for the closing day of the eel
ebration.
AS to the Gettysburg memorial, in
the form of a monument, Gen. Tor
rance declared that hope of federal
appropriation for that purpose had
been abandoned, at least for the
present.
1T only remains for those who may
participate in the celebration" said
he, "to come together, as they should
in broad and generous spirit of
national patriotism to make the field
of Gettysburg, already illustrious
and immortalized by deeds of unsur-
passed valor and sacrifice, still more
glorious by them and there consign-
ing to the tomb of forgetfulness ev-
cry lingering prejudice and bitter
feeling that may have survived the
ebbing tide of passion after half a
century of peace.
This is the purpose of the festivi-
ties and the proposed monument"
said Gen. Torrance, "to weld the
country together again by some ma
tionwide act of that kind"
The first day of the celebration will
be Veterans day." according to Gen.
Torrance. Already government engi-
neers are at work preparing for the
reception of the thousands of veter-
ans.
81 am opposed to any giant pa
rade," said the general. "The old men
should not be, made to endure such
a useless hardship. Let the opening
day be love feast"
July 2 will be known as Military
day." occupied by the National Guard
of the country in a great parade.
July 3 will besdevotad: to add
by prominent y speakers from ille'
North, South, East and West, en-
tirely cosmopolitan in effect, said
Gen. Torrance. President Wilson, it
is desired, will speak for the closing
day.
Gen. Torrance stated that it was
his committees hope to have suffi-
cient funds with which to start the
erection of the monument, so that
during the celebration the corner
stone might be laid at which the chief
justice of the United States might
act as master of ceremonies.

HADDAM LINKING BRIDGE DEDICATED
 BY GOV. BALDWIN

Haddam, Conn, June 14-There is new bond of friendship between that part of the state lying east of the Conn river and that portion on the west bank. It is of steel, a mighty structure and it will traverse the state east and west. This link is the Haddam and East Haddam bridge, built by the money of the state and dedicated to public use by Gov. Bal dwin, today, in the presence of an immense gathering. The celebration arranged by cooperation of the people of the two Haddams with the commission which built the bridge embraced all the features of an old home day for the Eaddamites. The strain of patriotism which rightly ob- served flag day and the dignfties which attended the formal reception of Gov. Baldwin and his party under escort of several bodies of the nai1i- tary establishment.
 The new bridge stands with the capitol at Hartford and the bridge on the lower reaches of the river at Say brook as one of the state enterprises which have been built within the sum allotted by the assembly. It has cost about s225.0 1000 and the commission will turn back some money into the treasury. The bridge will be a toll one. There are more than 1000 tons of steel xn the superstru cture.
 The fridge was erected under direc- ton of a commission and began in 1911. It was completed and turned over to the state today. A tablet on the bridge at the center will tell fu- ture generations of the men who achieved these results. The commits sioners have been, Albert B. Purple, William H. Caldwell and RoIlin U. Tyler. Edward ". Bush was the chief engineer.
 The program for the day was on an elaborate scale. The twin towns showered hospitality upon all comers In. the morning the bridge was open for inspection. It was a free day for all During the forenoon there were band concerts at various points by Hatch's military band, the F'ootguard Band of Hartford, the Bohemian band, the Putnam Drum Corps and the Moodus Drum Corps, giving a quaint touch of revolutionary days to the proceedings.

CINCINNATI HIT" BECOMES
 A HUGE JOKE IN BASEBALL
(By T. S. Andrews.)

The "Cincinnati hit'' in baseball is becoming as much of a joke as some of the rules of by-gone days.
 If the Baseball Writers association is really responsible for the adoption of the rule that gives players 49 which they are not entitled to, then 10 is up to the association to rescind the rule. It is certainly unfair to many players and does not assist in giving a true record of & players batting ability.
 Under the present rule, where there is a man on base and the batter hits to the infeId and the opposition fails to retire the man, no error being made, the man at bat Is credited with a hit. Formerly this would be SCOT ed a fielder's choice. unless 1t should be a case of the batter beating out the ball. Such plays were left Co the discretion of the scorer.
 A player may go to bat two or three times during game and never hit the ball out of the inheld and stil1 De credited with three safe drives. He may follow a man who gets his base and thus fall into a bunch Of "easy hits" Is this fair to the rest of the men on the team Decidedly not!
 It is a different proposition where a player deliberately attempts to sac rifice a man, and succeeding, is given no 1ti1he at bat, Or where he succeeds in placing a bunt and beating it out, but the ''Cincy'' hft-never. 1t is hard to understand how the major league scorers ever let such a joker get by It Is certainly one of the big gest jokes of the year in baseball rules and 1t is up to the league officials to take some action against 1t, if the writers association does not
 Tip O'Nei1l, president of the West ern league. says it is a joke and he simply ignores it. Tom Ch4vington, president of the American association, has not committed himself on the sub ject, but it is hoped that some of the minor league heads will have the good sense to issue instructions to all official scorers against it.
