Nationals Win Eleven Out Of
Twenty-one Games Play
ed on the Road.
WITH REGULARS INJURED

Lineup.
WITH REGULARS INJURED
BY WILLIAM PEET.

Cleveland, Ohio, May 22.-Of the twenty
four games scheduled on the Nationals
long out-of-town trip, twenty-one were
played, and of this number eleven VIC
tories were chalked up against ten de-
feats-a trifie better than an even break,
incidentally a fine showing when 1t Is
considered that the Climbers were with
out third baseman Eddie Foster. and
that Chick Gandil warmed the bench dur
ing two important series.
The real test comes tomorrow, in
Washington and in the Quaker City, Sat
urday. Monday, Tuesday. and wednes-
day, when seven games in five days will
be played against the White Elephants,
present leaders OF the American League.
II the Climbers are able to hold their
own against the House OF Mack, and
win three out of four. Griff predicts that
the club will never drop lower than third
place during the entire season.
Il looks as If Frank Laporte was out
of II for a week or ten days. Laporte
pulled a muscle loose in the region of
his right thigh during yesterdays game
and could hardly walk when he scrambled
out of bed this morning.
Grin was forced to send Schaefer to
third where he will likely play for the
present at least.
ChiIk Gandil stopped Graney's low
smash with his bum toe during the eighth
inning of today's game. and he. too. may
be forced to warm the bench tomorrow,
in which case Williams will hold down
the initial sack.
Manager Griffith split up his squad just
before boarding the train for Washing
ton tonight. sending Walter johnson,
George Mullin. Joe Boehling. Nick AL
trock. and Acosta in charge of Jack
Ryan, direct to Philadelphia, where they
will be Joined by the remainder of the
club Friday night, or Immediately after
the game against the Athletics.
Tom Hughes. Joe Engel. and Mel Galha
will be in uniform at National Park to-
morrow. ard Hughes is slated TO oppose
the Mackmen.
Walter johnson had no alibi to offer
for the defeat handed him by the Maps
this afternoon. Trainer Martin and
others declared Walter was far from
right, but this the great pitcher denies.
They beat me. and that's all there Is
tito it, he said.
pires Hart and Billy Evans will be on the
job, this will be Evans first appearance
in the Capital of the 1913 season.
II was learned after the game that
when Milan slid into the plate In the first
inning yesterday Catcher O'Neill banged
him on the temple with the ball The
blow dazed Milan and also left a lump

The Temple of Peace, to be open- ed to-day at The Hague as the home of the Permanent Court of Arbitra- ton, will afford a magnificent aviary for the dove of peace. Architectur- ally the edif1ce is among the finest in the Dutch capital. The palace, built with money donated by Andrew Car negie, is an outgrowth of the move ment commenced in 1899, when the Czar of Russia invited representatives of all nations to meet in The Hague and frame a, plan for a permanent in- ternational court of arbitration. For ty-two nations are now represented in the tribua1, which has for it's pur- pose the arbitration of international disputes which it has been found inn possible to settle by diplomacy. A number of such cases have already been passed upon by the court.

EXPENSES OF CANDIDATES SHOULD BE BORN BY THE
 STATE, SAYS coy. BALDWIN

Colorado Springs. Aug. 28-Just as the State bears the expense of con ducting elections, so should it bear the expenses=or most of them-of can dfdates for party nominations at the primaries, in the opinion of Simeon E.. Baldwin, Governor of Connecticut, who addressed the Governors Confer ence yesterday. Here is. the list of can didates' expenses which Governor Baldwin would have the State shoul- der:
 Printing and distribution of ballots and other papers required by law.
 Travelling expenses of the candidates to and from appointments for meet ings incident to the campaign, wheth- CT public or private.
 Travelling expenses of speakers in their behalf to and from public meet ings.
 Copying poll or registry lists.
 Providing cha1lengers.
 The burden of these legitimate ex- penses in most states, Governor Bal win said, falls on the candidate for nomination and deters the poor man from entering the political lists, un- less he puts himself under what he would be apt to deem an obligation to those who supply him with the necessary funds.
 'fThe government must have a right Governor Baldwin said, ''in self-defence so to regulate the mak- ing of nominations, whether by. par ty conventions or primaries or by di- rect primaries of the whole people, as not to dictate the choice, but to as- sure that it fairly represents the choice of those who make it. The State must have a right. if the people
