lfternoon, 4 portion OF the skull being

Boswell Under Arrest.
According to the police authorities
Boswell was under the influence of
liquor and had been cautioned by the
officer to be careful about his language

he ran up behind him and struck him
with the bottle.
Immediately afterward Boswell was
arrested. The following day he was
released on bail for the action of the
November grand jury. When Hewitts
condition became so serious yesterday
Boswell was rearrested and committed
to Jail without bail.

There is going to be no rush to enact stamp tax or increase in internal revenues on commodities. Although 1t is certain that additional govern ment revenues must be provided be- cause of the curtailment of customs the leaders want to hear from all parts of the country before a law is passed. They also want to consider thoroughly just how to spread the tax to the best advantage.
 There is no treasury deficit now and no immediate danger of one: conse- quently the democrats say it would be best to go at the task of providing for the ultimate deficit deliberately and safely.
 War risk insurance by the govern ment also is to be considered. al- though a bill to provide for this prob- ably will not take up much of the time of congress when the plan is worked out and a measure submitted.

BASEBALL WAR FUND.
National League Will Give One Days
 Receipts to Red Cross.

John A. Heydler, secretary of the National League of Baseball Clubs, issued statement yesterday as fol- lows:
 ''The National Baseball league has come forward promptly in response to the appeal of the American Red Cross in aid of the society's war relief fund
 ''The senior league will shortly designate day of its regular cham pionshipp schedule, the same to be known as Red Cross Day. On this day a percentage of the gate re- ceipts will be set aside for the urgent needs of the Red Cross in the Euro rean war. In reserving a day of its schedule for a special purpose, the National league has departed from a precedent of many years standing. 1t is expected that all leagues in or ganized baseball will take similar action.

DAILY WAR COST
 IS $50,oO0,0OO
Dr. Jordan Estimates Cost Of European .. Struggle in Dollars.

The menace of a general European war lends particular interest to what Dr. David Starr Jordan, America s distinguished peace advocate, said in his recent book, War and Waste:' What shall We say of the great war of Europe ever threatening, ever impending and which never comes? We shall say that it will never come. Humanly speaking, it is impossible. Not in the physical sense, of course, but with weak, reckless and goddess men nothing evil is impossi- ble. It may be, of course, that some half crazed archduke or some ha- rassed minister of state, shall half knowing give the signal for Europe's conf1agration. In fact, the agreed signal has been given more than once within the last few months. The tin der is we'll dried and laid in such a way as to make the worst of this ca tastrophe.
 Figure of Russian Intrigue.
 Behind the sturdy forms of the Bulgarian farmers turks the sinister figure of Russian intrigue. Russia and Austria, careless of their neighbors, careless of obligations, find in this their opportunity. And the nations of Europe in their degree are bound to one or the other of these malcon- tents. Neither Russia nor Austria can be trusted to keep the peace even in her own interest, for both, through debt abroad and discomfort at home, are in a condition of perpetual crisis"
 The armed forces of Europe in the event of a general war are thus tabu- lated by Prof. Charles Richet of the University of Paris:

FORD BADLY INJURED.
Ex-Yankcc May Not Be Able to Pitch
 Again.

Buffalo, Aug. 20.-Russell Ford, ex- Yankee and now pitcher of the Buf- falo Federal league team, is suffering from an injury to the spine and prob- ably will not pitch again this season. Three weeks ago Ford was compelled to quit in the middle of the game be- cause of a pain in his side. The trouble continued, and this week he visited "Bonesetter' Reese at YouDgs- town, Ohio.
 Ford was told that the injury to his spine was of long standing and that nothing but months of rest wo1ld benefit him, if he could be helped at ell Ford believes he received the ln- jury diving into a tank in California in the winter of 1912.

WAR KEEPS CONGRESS
 FROM ADJOURN|Nc
Democrats Clamp Brakes and Re- pubfCanS Are Eager to Get Home.

Washington, Aug. S0.-The war in Europe has materially altered the congressional situation. Not many weeks ago administration leaders were expressing the hope that the minority would restrain any filibuster against legislation, particularly the antitrust program, so that congress might adjourn in ample time for par ticipation in the fall campaign. The republicans many of them also eager to get home for the political fray, promptly agreed there should be no filibuster and that all would pull to- gether for early adjournment.
 Today, however, the adjournment prospect is eclipsed by multifarious issues and the democrats themselves are putting the brakes on legislation. Administration leaders, when asked about adjournment simply throw up their hands and say:
 Time alone can answer, we cannot adjourn while half the world is broil- ing"
 Legislative Pace Changed.
 The legislative pace has been changed from double quick almost to a IndTK-IlIno SCneQule.
 Consideration of the Clayton anti trust bill is not being hastened. AL though most of the important issues involved were thoroughly discussed when the trade commission bill was before the senate, they are again be- ing reviewed in proIonged speeches. Republican senators were ready to vote on the bill Monday, but it now seems that all this week at least will be consumed by the debate.
 River and Harbor Measure.
 Further assurances that the session would be more prolonged than had been expected came yesterday when Senator Kern, the majority leader, an nounced decision of the party leaders to dispose of a river and harbor ap- propriation bill. This measure had been before the senate for weeks, and was laid aside for trust legislation following a filibuster conducted by Senator Burton, of OnIo. Then the word will be passed around that the river and harbor bill would be left in the lurch by adjournment when trust legislation should be enacted. Reconsideration of this program is certain to hold attention of congress two or three weeks, at least
 In the house conservation legisla- tion now is being prepared and it ,s probable that it will receive attention of the senate when it reaches there.
