URGES BAGGING AND TIE PROBE
Senator Smith Would Know Cause OF
Recent Rise i'm Prices.

Washington, July 17.-Senator e.
d. Smith, Of South Carolina, yester-
day introduced resolution directing
the Secretary Of Commerce and La.
Dor to Investigate the recent advance
Of the price Of bagging used in bal
ing cotton, as well as the advance
in the price of ties used to band or
bale cotton, and to report to the
Senate at the earliest possible time
the cause OF such advances. Because
Of the urgency Of the matter, Sena-
tor Smith asked immediate consider
alton of his resolution.
Senator Williams, Of Mississippi,
objected on the ground that cotton
bagging is put on the free list in
the pending tariff bill. To this the
South Carolinian rejoined that If the
government waited for the tariff bill
to pass its benefits would come too
late to apply to the present cotton
season, whereas an immediate inves-
tigation might bring results in time
to help in the marketing OF the pres
ent crop and save the farmers OF
South Carolina $4,000 or s170,-a
600 and those of Georgia $500, 900.
At this stage Senator Clark, of Wy
oming, called for the regular order
and the resolution went to the cal
endar.
Premature Announcement Clemency.
Newberry, July lit turns out
that the Washington dispatch OF last
Friday purporting to give the news
of commutation Of the sentence OF
Milton A. Carlisle from five years to
one was unauthorized and not true.
The fact is it was only a decision Of
the attorney generals department
to recommend that to the President,
and the news leaked" out somehow
and got mixed. The President has
not taken any action in the case.

SOUTHERN ON TO KNOXVILLE 2
Interesting Rumors Regarding Com.
pletion Of Road from Walhalla.
(Anderson Mail.)

Sometimes new rumors arise indi-
eating renewed interest in the ex-
tension of the Blue Ridge railway
through the mountains from WaIhal-
la to Clayton, Ca, and thence to
Knoxville, Tenn. 1t Is known that
a syndicate of Anderson business
men recently offered to float 81 ,OOO,,
900 of bonds if the Southern Rail-
way would put the road through, but
the offer was declined.
But S5 miles remain to be COM
pleted, and this would give the
Southern trunk line from Chicago
to Charleston that would be its most
popular line across the mountains
because of the easy grades. From
Walhalla to Clayton, Ga, would con-
meet with line already in operation
to Franklin, n. c., and thence there
is a gap to Fontana or to Bushnell,
N. c., either Of which places could
be reached by rocd following the
windings of the Little Tennessee
river until it is intersected by the
line from Maryville, Tenn, to Knox
Vile.
Along this line the following from
the Manufacturers Record of last
week is of considerable interest Just
at present.:

ant engineer of the Southern Rail-

that an agreement has been reached
between that company and the Alum
mum Company Of America rlder
which they will share the expense of
relocating and building the South
ern's proposed line along the Little
Tennessee river from North Carolina
into Tennessee. 1t is estimated that
the cost of construction for thirty
miles uncompleted between Fontana,
N. c., and Chilhowee, Tenn, will be
$3,000,000 or $4,0OO,OOO, and the
railroad will have to be built about
25O feet higher up the side Of the
mountain than the original location
"The Southern Railways proposed
line is from Bushnell, N. c., to Mary

struction for several years, and the
Knoxville report says that from

ward as far as Chilhowee and also
from Bushnell west as far as Fon-

HARVARD MUST
RECKON WITH
yALE'S ELEVEN
Rejuvenated Eli Team May Spring
Big Surprise on Crimson
Squad Next Saturday,
By Frank G. Menke.

ATEw YORK, Nov. 17.-Most Of
the headlines inform the pop
ulace that Nothing but Yale
now stands in Harvard's way TO the
1918 football championship OF the
East" Which, in a sense. is quite
true But II seems to us that the
nothing but" part of that headline
is a bit superfuous and totally mis-
guiding
Before the twilight shadows settle
over the Harvard stadium next Sat-
urday II may be found that the head
lines should have been yale stood
in Harvard's way" For that rejuve-
mated Yale team IN a force that Har
ward must reckon with and one which
promises to give the unbeaten Grim
son aggregation the greatest tussle
OF the year.
Yale to-day is rs per cent stronger
than Il was a week ago. 1t went into
the Princeton battle with an almost
entirely new team, as far as playing
together WAS concerned. And II played
3 game that was little short OF mar
velous This final week Of coaching
and playing together ought to whip
the Bulldogs into unbeatable form,
even at the hands OF the wonderful
Crimson team Which is a broad
statement, but it's broadness will be
found justified II the Yale gang. plays
against Harvard Saturday with the
vim, dash and skill that 1t displayed
against the Tigers.
THE Yale Princeton battle Satpr-
day seemed to mark the return
Of the old kicking game. and II seems
1,,s nil ha taA to 70
r. great extent when Harvard and
Yale meet at the end OF the week.
In the kicking department the teams
stack up Just about even. Knowles
is a wonderful punter, a man who
can get q wonderful distance on his
boots and yet send them high enough
10 enable his ends 10 get down and
wait for the man who catches the
ball. Guernsey. the substitute back,
who made Yale's only score Satur-
day, is a 45-yard booter, but he
doesn't seem to be able to get them
nigh enough to suit his ends.
Hardwck and Mahan. the Grim
son kickers, are a wonderful pair, but
neither OF them seems to be equal to
Knowles though both outshine
Guernsey.
DRICKLEY ia power that Yale
- must contend with Yale turned
back STREET the smashing Princeton
fullback, but Brickley is STREETS SUI
nerior. and the real test of the Yale
line will come when Prickley shoves
his frame against It. Brickley, II may
be recalled, is a drop-kicker OF some
merit. II Harvard can get the ball
inside the 40-yard line, Mr.. Brick
ley win he called upon TO score three
nOints for his team.
From this distance II seems that II
Yale can halt Brickley It may halt
he entire aggregation
THE grand old dope, however. in
dicates that Harvard will beat
Yale twenty to nothing. You see
Yale beat Brown only II to 0, while
Harvard trimmed them 81 to 0. a diff
ference Of 20 points in Harvard's
favor. After consulting the dope
lot of young men up at the Cam
bridge institution ~ learning to-day

the erection OF a championship flag

boys are bit too hasty.
