NORTHERNERS SHUT OUT

c. U. defeated Amherst yesterday on
University Field. in one Of the best play
I'd games seen this season. score 3 to o.
The game developed into q pitchers
battle between Croker and Brough. The
Red and Black twirler had a little the
breaks Of the game. Brough, who was
on the fire line for Amherst, pitched
q game that would win four times out
Of fve, but his inield faltered at the
critical moment and his good pitching
went TO naught.
Amherst threatened several times, but
Croker had something in reserve and
was able TO make the next batter pop up
or make him hit an easy roller to the
infaeld and the man was out at first He
was never hit for more than q single in
any frame except the first. when he was
nicked for a single and a double. Two
hands were down at the time and the
next man hit an easy chance to the
pitcher and the danger was over.
The Red and Black team fielded in
great shape behind Croker and the only
miscue was on a hard hit ball that went
through Whites legs. In the fourth
Brough passed Donnelly and Lynch in
succession and Cooley hit for a base
scoring Donnelly- Lynch was thrown out
at the plate on an attempted steal OF
home. In the seventh on an error. pass
and a hit c. U. scored two more runs
and the game was safe, as Amherst
went out in one-two-three order in the
eighth and ninth
Balmos had an easy time as he faced
Croker four times and was passed each

MUCH DISTRESSED
He Will Try to Devise Some Plan to
Relieve Demonstrations Against
Him, 1t Is Said.

New York, MAY 2.---Iohn y. Rookie
feller, jr., it was said at his office yes
terday, feeling that he has been forced
to bear the brunt of the criticisms grow
ing out of the mine strike in Colorado,
hopes in the near future to devise some
plan by which he may relieve the sit
uation SO far as the demonstrations
against him are concerned. just what
he purposes to do was not made clear.
Mr.. Rockefeller spent the day at his
home in the Pocantico hills, transacting
all his business over the telephone.
"Mourners" were again marching up and
down in front of the Standard Oil build
ing at 20 Broadway. A threat to keep
hearse on the scene did not materialize
during the forenoon.
MIR. Rockefeller's secretaries said that
though he was not ILL., he was greatly
distressed by the ordeal he has under
gone. They could not say how long he
would remain in seclusion.
At Mulberry Bend park, several blocks
from the Standard Oil building, a great
crowd assembled to attend meeting
of the Anti-Militant league. Alexander
Berkman called the meeting to order.
Among the banners displayed was one
bearing a skull and crossbones with the
caption "No. 26 Broadway"

Denver. May 2.-Goveinor Ammons
yesterday telegraphed Secretary of War
Garrison requesting additional federal
troops on being informed by Major W
A. HoibroolS that he would be unable to
spare any men from his present com
mand for duty in the northern Colorado
coal fields, where two hundred militia
under General Chase still are on guard.
A war department bulletin, issued
yesterday, said that conditions at Wal
senburg, where Captain Smith is in COM
mand of United States army troops,
were reported critical" but that the
work OF restoring order in Trinidad and
Canon City districts was going forward.
At the hour set for the strikers mass
meeting at Trinidad to consider the ques-
tion Of surrendering their guns to the
federal troops, it looked doubtful if any
meeting could be held. Snow was fall
ing after a day and night of continue
Gus rain. General John Brown said he
did not think the men woud come to the

Designates Interstate Trade
Commission to Consist
Of Five Members
DIRECTORS TO BE HELD
PERSONALLY LIABLE
Interlocking of Boards and
Rules for Fair Compe-
tition Laid Down

Washington, May 2.-The Senate trust
bill, as agreed on in the subcommittee
of eight, was reported to the full COM
mittee yesterday and made public.
Many of the features of the bill have
heretofore been made public.
Public interest has been aroused prin-
cipally in regard to the regulation of the
! holding companies, the question of in
terlocking direetorates, watered stock
and labor and price fixing. The two
last subjects were ignored entirely.
The interstate commerce commission
| is to consist of five members, not more
than three of whom shall be of the same
| political party. The terms of the COM
| missioners are fixed at seven years
| Salaries of commissioners are to be SI0,-
600, with secretary at $4,000 and an
assistant secretary at $4,000. The COM
missioners are to be appointed by the
president, subject to confirmation by the
Senate.
The following is the section regulating
interlocking directorates:
"That no corporation shall engage in
commerce if upon its board of directors
or other managing board or among its
officers there Is any person who is a
member of the board of directors, or
other managing board or one of the Off
GERS of another corporation engaged in
commerce and carrying on competitive
business. Provided, however, that no
suit or action, civil or criminal, shall be
instituted to enforce this section against
any corporation having such community
of directors or officers which, within one
year after the passage hereof, files with
the commission, or, If a common carrier,
with the interstate commerce commits
sion, petition asking that the business
Of the corporations involved is not 10
fact competitive, or that if competitive
in any degree the community of direc-
tors or officers, or both, does not de-
stroy or impair substantially competi-
tive conditions as to such corporations
and which petition is sustained BY
finding OF the commission, in the one
case, or the interstate commerce COM
mission, in the other"
Provision is made for investigations
and public hearings to determine wheth-
err competition exists.
Section 10 of the bill enacts "that no
corporation shall engage in commerce If
1t owns, holds, or controls, directly or
indirectly, the whole or any part of the
capital stock or any other means OF
control of any other corporation carry
ing on competitive business"
There is the same provision permit
ting the corporation affected to establish
that they are related by common own
ership OF stock.

FIND rs BODIES
IN SEARCH FOR 172
The Rescue Parties Continue Work in
Wrecked Mine--Boy Saves
81 Lives,

Eccles, w. Va, May 2.-Rescue crews
have found rs bodies at the foot of the
shaft in mine No. of the New River
Coal company, and are continuing their
work of exploration in the hope of find
ing the rest of the liz men who, it now
seems certain, lost their lives in the ex-
plosion last Tuesday afternoon.
Pumps were kept going during the
night and by dawn yesterday the mine
was comparatively free of water. The
force of the explosion was SO great that
masses of earth and rock were dislodged
and the galleries ehoked. It may be
days before the dead have been recov-
cred.
Thirty-seven miners employed in No.
when the explosion occurred owe their
lives to the courage of little Davy Buck
harmon, trapper boy, and the resource
fulness of the fire boss, A. p. Burdiss.
Davy heard the explosion in No. and,
like all miners, knew the afterdamp
would soon sweep the workings of No. 6,
Without thought of himself and not
knowing how soon the dust in No.
would let 90, he ran along the gallery,
shouting warning at the mouth of
every room. The men ran up the main
entry, where the fire boss quickly gath
cred them at the underground store
house. There he distributed brattice
cloth, and, directing them to room far
from the entry connecting with No. s,
showed them how to build wall that
would shut out the gases. After three
hours of anxious waiting the imprisoned
men were found by rescue party head
ed by Superintendent Thomas Donald
son, who piloted them to safety.

country is predicted by experts of the
federal forest service in announcing yes
terday an increase in the number OF
livestock for which grazing permits have
been authorized on the 100 national for
ests for 1916 as compared with last
year. This year nearly 100000 ami
mails can be grazed, including nearly
100000 head of cattle and horses, near
ly 100000 head of sheep and goats,
and about $4,000 hogs. This is an in
crease for the current year of about 3s,-
900 more cattle and horses and 347 900
more sheep and goats, although the gross
area of national forests at the begin
ming of the year is almost 100000 less
than at the beginning of last year.
During 1913 more than 2700o stock
men paid the government for grazing
permits on national forests.

KENYON ATTACKS
"INVISIBLE' RULE
The Senator from Iowa Says That the
Rockefeller Millions Control
the Government.

Washington, May forfeiture Of its
federal charter was urged against the
Rockefeller general education board by
Senator Kenyon of Iowa yesterday. He
introduced bill to revoke the act OF
Congress of 1908 authorizing the foun-
dation.
From the data submitted by various
government departments, the Iowa SEN
ator said he learned that over S2,000,000
worth of the boards foundation fund.-
is in stock Of the Colorado Industrial
company the storm center of the Col
orado mine strike, and over S4,000,000
of the fund is in steel trust stock.
IF John d. Rockefeller would go out
to Colorado" said Senator Kenyon, ''and
give some of this blood money to the
families of the poor strikers which his
company IL now fighting, instead OF Civ
ing same to colleges and agricultural ex-
perts throughout the country, he would
be going long way towards making
amends for the ruin and devastation
which he has helped to bring upon the
suffering people of Colorado.
II think it would be far more hui
manitarian act for Mr.. Rockefeller to
raise the salaries of these men and see
that they have better surroundings, than
to force them to submit to his terms
in order that he can secure a few more
dollars to endow colleges and UNIVERSE
ties throughout this country,
"Just think, the government Of the
United States, through its agricultural
department, being copartner with such
corporations as the United States steel
trust, the American Cigar company

cerned in existence in this Countrywide

why this government does not care to

Alcohol Barred from Navy.

Alcohol as a beverage has been barred
out of the United States navy. Follow
ling the recommendation of Surgeon
General Braisted, Secretary of the Navy
Josephus Daniels has issued an execu-
| tive order abolishing all alcoholic liquors
from every ship and station Of the navy.
| The order reads, "The use or introduc-
ton, for drinking purposes, of alcoholic
| liquors on board any naval vessels, or
within any naval yard or station, is
strictly prohibited, and commanding Of
| ficers will be held directly responsible
| tor the enforcement of this order" The
significance and extent of the change
which has taken place in popular views
regarding alcohol. as indicated by this
sweeping order of the secretary, can be
appreciated only when one recalls the
stories of naval experiences of past gen
erations, when rum, brandy and whisky
formed part of the regular official rs.
lions. when liquor of some kind was
served, as a routine procedure, to officers
and men before going into action, and
when one of the chief characteristics of
sailors, whether officers or seamen, was
their ability to dispose of an amazing
quantity of intoxicants. The develop
ment of scientific methods and the use
OF instruments of precision in warfare
have made alcohol absolutely detrimen-
tai TO the modern naval man. Sea fights
in the past were won by brute hardihood
and physical endurance which could per-
haps be stimulated, temporarily at least,
by large doses of alcohol. The modern
warship is floating laboratory of deli
cate and accurate machines. The gun
pointer who directs l4-ineh rifle on the
modern man-of-war needs not only per-
sonal courage, but also absolute steadi-
ness of nerve, clearness of vision and
fine muscular coordination. All of
these things modern physiology has
shown to be impaired by even small
amounts of alcohol. The engineer who
superintends the machinery at the heart
of the modern battleship, the man at the
wheel who directs its course and the
captain or the executive officer on the
bridge, as well as the most humble MEM
Der of the crew, need at all times to be
in a condition of maximum physical and
mental efficiency. Intoxieation in the
naval officer to-day might easily be as
disastrous as cowardice and treason. The
Journal of the American Medical asso-
citation thinks that Surgeon General
Braisted's recommendations and Secre-
tary Daniels order are simply in line
with our growing knowledge. The
nation needs on it, battleships to-day
the most capable, clear-headed, cool
Drained and steady handed men, and
these men arc not found among the ha-
bitual or occasional users of alcohol in
any form. Entirely aside from moral
or sentimental reasons, and considered
simply as scientific regulation in the
interest OF efficiency, this order will
recommend itself to the vast majority
Of the American people.
