center of Massachusetts, but to approve
the acquisition of lines in that territory
by the New Haven. The New Haven, In
turn, agreed to keep out of territory
north of the Boston & Albany but to
approve the acquisition of any lines
there by the Boston e Maine. That
agreement, so far as the bill shows, was
never terminated, but subsequently the
New Haven, after seeing the Boston &
Maine acquire the northern lines, in turn
took over the Boston g. Maine and had
no competitor in the field save the YER
mont Central and the Grand Trunk,
which touch a few of the many towns
and villages In New England.
The bill points to the great industries
In New England whose products go to
every part of the nation, and shows that
relief from the alleged transportation
monopoly which handles the products of
these INDUSTRIES is of importance to ev-
cry section of the country.
The bill scores the methods used by the
New Haven to perfect its combination.

down the sciatic nerve, so much so
that it was impossible to get up or

AUSTRALASIA SCORES
VICTORY OVER CANADA

Lake Forest, ILL.,, July 23.-Australa-
STA today scored a one-sided victory
over Canada in the first of the Davis
cup elimination matches. In straight
sets, Anthony F. Wilding defeated R.
/. Powell. 6-1, 6-2, 6-2, and in the same
manner Norman Brooks won from B.
r. Schwengers, 81, 6-2, 6-2 The Cana
dians played desperately and made a
game fight for every point, but were
outclassed. The result gives the Aus
tralasians a big advantage since, to
win the series the Canadians now must
take the doubles tomorrow and both
the singles matches on Saturday. AZ
ter the play today, critics were unwill-
ing to concede the Canadians anything
but an outside chance. The first
match, that of Brooks and Schwengers.
was hardly completed before a terrific
stor mbegan. The showers, which last
ed more than an hour, drove the spec
tators to shelter and threatened to
cause a postponement of the second
match. Canvas covers kept the courts
nearly dry, but Wilding refused to
consent to having the match postpon-
ed. Wilding played wonderful game,
much better than his practice matches
early this week had indicated. His
passing was marvellous, alley shots,
just inside the side lines and just
short of the base lines leaving Pow
ell helpless at times. His drives just
topped the nets and his lobbying kept
the Canadians playing far back of the
base line. Powell occasionally showed
great skill in serving but his serving
was not to be compared with his OPP
ponent's.
Lack of confidence probably hasten
ed Schwengers' defeat at the hands of
Brooks The latter, though seemingly
not the brilliant master of the game
that Wilding is, easily had the better
of Schwengers.

Producing two Americans, Capt. G.

CONDENSED DISPATCHES

The memory of $50 British soldiers
and sailors who were killed in the
battle of Bunker Hill, June II. 1775,
will be perpetuated by bronze tablet
to be placed on the wall near the
chancel in the Old North church, Bos-
tor. from the tower of which the IA
nous signal lanterns of Paul Revere
were hing the night of April is, IT'S.
The tablet will bear simple inscrip-
ton commemorative of. the British
that fell at Bunker Hill. The list of
their names is considered too long to
be placed on a tablet in such a place,
but it is thought that second tablet,
bearing list of the British regiments
which took part in the capture of Bun
ker Hill, may be placed in~the church,
beneath the memorial.
