LANDS
FATHER WEBER OF SANTA FE
ADDRESSES BROCHURE TO
CONGRESS

Santa Fe, Aug. 20-Remarkable both
in literary and in a historical way
is a pamphlet or brochure just pub
lished by Father Anselm Weber. the
devoted and venerable Franciscan
missionary to the Navajos, stationed at
st. Michaels and we'll known through
out New Mexico for his learning and
piety. 1t is entitled "The Navajo In
dians, Statement of Facts" and is
an argument against the proposed al
loting of lands to the Navajos and the
throwing open of the Navajo reserva,
ton to the homesteader. His indict-
ment is:
THE Indian has no representation
unless congress as whole espouses
his cause. Too often, however, con-
gress as body relies implicitly upon
the delegation from such states for in
formation, guidance and act'cl and
such delegations are, at times, lnisin-
formed by interested constituents
am stating the case as mildly as
possible
Father Weber them takes up some
OF the misstatements and cites facts
and figures which are perhaps, as COM
plete summing up of the conditions
on the Navajo reservation, as has
ever found it's way into print. OF
course, the writer is an authority
having lived with the Navajos on
their reservation for many, many
years, knows their language and their
customs, has their confidence and is
much beloved by them.
He defends the Navajos against the
charge of lawlessness, and quotes sta
tistics showing that the Navajo has
not any too much land on his reser-
yations 1t is an intensely interesting
review of the situation, and the 30
pages of the pamphlet will no doubt
be welcomed by congress, for which
it was written.

at an age three years greater than
that at which Napoleon died and when
- years older than was Frederick
the Great, when by the treaty of
Dresden, in 1745, he obtained posses
sion of Silesia, for the second time,
and by his military genius had raised
himself to a great position in Europe
"The kaiser has so well kept the
peace of Europe during the 26 years
of his reign that Carnegie, only few
months ago, presented to him a trib-
ute as an expression of the admira-
Ition of peace lovers the world over for
TIE magnificent work he had done to
prevent war in Europe during his years
of power. Now to say that he has
plunged nations into war for a mere
freak is to misjudge entirely those ra-
cial currents which for centuries, like
some deeply hidden stream that under
mines mountains and brings the lof-
tiest peak level with the plain, have
torn through all conventions and dlplo-
matte agreements, and made their way
in blood to the attainment of their
ultimate object. There has been
more than one occasion when the
mad, could have thrown his sword into
mad, could have thown his sword into
the balance with far more chance of
achieving success than at the present
time.
Americans not having been placed
in environment where they could feel
the pressure of rival races, naturally
form the opinion that the great mill
tary establishment of the German
emperor is responsible for this war,
and they can not understand how
thing that appears so small to them
as the Austro-Servian dispute should
result in this Pan European conflagra-
tion. This attitude on their part Is
due to their ignorance of conditions
that have obtained in their own coun-
try. Only few months ago the United
States invaded territory of Mexico and
seized her creates port because a
certain salute was not given to the
American flag. Doubtless the Ameri-
can people would have been much ag-
grieved if Europe had Knocked them
for entering upon hostilities for such
a trivial cause.
Americans are inclined to condemn
the strenuous methods adopted by
Austria to punish Servia for the assas-
sination of the heir to the Austrian
throne, yet our own government re-
fused to recognize the authority of
Huerta on the ground he was impli-
Gated in the assassination of Madero,
a Mexican-a refusal that resulted
eventually in the invasion of Mexican
territory.
''We who watch over the Monroe
dot trine with nervous care are scarce
ly in position to shout militarism
at the Germans or Austrians when
they risk the arbitrament of war for
a principle of racial homogeneity, that
may have just as solid a basis in the
needs of the people as had that doc
trine"

MORE INTEREST IN
 CORNELL CREWS NOW
New Coaching System Increases the
 Interest.

The new crew coaching system at Cornell, which went into effect re- gently, is expected to materially in- crease the interest of the student body as a whole in rowing. Under the ar engagement between the Athletic coun- cil and the Inter-College Athletic Board the college crews are to be coached by John Hoyle, under the direct su- pervision of Charles Courtney. The new system will give the college oars men 8 regular coach and will assure them the daily advice of Courtney. Rowing under Courtney's instruction Is likely to stimulate interest in the college crews and form a better source of supply for the varsity boats than heretofore. By the new arrangement the number of men will be largely in- creased. The equipment of the unI- versity and college navies will be practically merged.
 In speaking of the new system Courtney said
 All of the crews that row will not be under one head and if I should want to pick one of the college oars- men for a, varsity boat in the middle of the season will know that he has been given the proper training up to that time.'

RICHARDS TO COMPETE.
Will Swim in Sandy Hook Race
 EInosky Thinks Course is Short.

Those followers who are still trying to settle who is the champion long distance swimmer of America will have an opportunity to see their respective champions in the first competitive swim from the Battery to Sandy Hook, which will be held under the auspices of the American Life Saving society on July 19, according to an announce ment made by President Brennan the other day. The race will be for anna teurs only and will be sanctioned by the A. A. U. Otto Wahle has been chosen referee.
 Sam Richards, the Boston champion who accomplished the swim last sum- mer and is the onlX amateur who ever completed the course, has sent in his entry. His great rival, Charles Dur borrow, the Philadelphia bank clerk saw at opportunity open to him and followed suit.
 Not to be outdone, Buster Elionsky, the 265 pound New London lad, who among other aquatic feats swam eight miles down the East river with his hands and feet chained while juggling 8 beat with seven passengers on board a total of 1256 pounds, also sent in his entry. FlionSlxy thinks the course too short. He is trying to convince the authorities that the long distance championship should go to the swim mer who can cover the greatest dis tance He wants to swim from the Battery to Sandy Hook in two tides, return to the Battery again and then take another tide to Coney Island, cov- ering in all about 70 miles and taking about 4S hours to accomplish it.

BURR LOOKS GOODS
 TO THE YANKEES.
Both Burr and Cooper Have Good
 Prospects.

Manager Chance of the Tanks will bring back two new faces, as far as his pitching staff is concerned, for big league inspection. The ones we have reference to are Al Burr, the big Will Hams college pitcher, and Cooper, from the Petersburg club in the Vir- ginia league.
 The New York leader said the other day that they both looked good enough to bring back and that he would not let them out until he had given them more than the "once over"
 '1 think both Burr and Cooper are good prospects" said Chance on his way to the train for Mobile, Monday. "They may need some experience, but I think it would be good idea to keep them around to see how things go in the big league. I like their style. Both have speed and seem to average hurler breaking into the big league"
 Burr has the record of not losing a game He did some pitching for the Hotehkiss school two years ago, and then did some f1inging for the Choate school at Wallingford, Conn. From there he went to William scollege. He measures feet inches and weighs about 190 pounds.
 AS for Cooper. he seems to be one of those wise birds who act as if they had been in the big league before. Boils on Cooper's neck have set him back considerably, but every player on the club has been constantly say ing that he looks mighty good for big league material.

A SPECIALISTS ADVICE
 IN KIDNEY TROUBLES

Rhis is to certify that for number of years I was employed as @ motor man until 1 was taken so seriously ill with kidney trouble l had to resign my position. For about six years I was unable to do any work whatever. I deetered with several doctors to no effect. Finally I went to Toledo to see @ specialist who advised me that I had kidney trouble in its worst form. He told me I was in a serious condition and asked me what I had been taking. I told him Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root and he said there was mt anything better. I returned home and continued to take Swamp Root and have practically recovered my health, and I am now able to work. I am positive that if 1t were not for Swamp Root I would not be here to give this testimonial. I heartily recommend Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-R Root to any one afflicted with kidney trou- ble. You have my permission to publish this testimonial If you so de- sire.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
STATE OF DEADLOCK.
New Haven and Lehigh Valley Lead
 Upturn in Afternoon.

New York, March 3o-Speculation reached a state of deadlock today The slow decline in progress last week was halted, but little else was accom- plished. The lack of public demand for stocks and the downward trend of prices recently caused traders to take the short side in the early dealings. Professional pressure was not severe, however, for the shorts bore in mind the comparative steadiness of stocks in the face of depressing influences to which they have been subjected of late and proceed cautiously. Quotations were forced down in spots. but re- sessions failed to bring out stocks in any quantity, and after noon a recov- cry set in
 the upturn of the afternoon. Anal ganated also developed strength and in the late session the western railroad stocks moved upward smartly, so that at the close a, number of issues showed gains of a point. The average change, however, was slight.
 North American extended it's recent large gain. Studebaker and Goodrich were strong on reports of increased business in the automobile industry. A few specialties gave way sharply. Tobacco stocks once more weakened on the prospect of an antitrust suit against the tobacco companies dis tributing agent. Oil shares also were under pressure, with heaviest losses in Mexican Petroleum issues
 The late advance in the western railroad shares followed publication of St. Paul's February report, which was in contrast with the poor statements of other large systems for last month. There was an increase of $117,o 900 in net earnings, although the gross fell eff $419,000. Southern reported a shrinkage of s24S,0o0 in February net revenue
 Despite the cash loss shown in the bank statement of Saturday in place of the expected gain and notwithstand- ing the preparations for the quarterly payments to be made on April 1, the money market reflected continued ease Time rates and commercial discounts again were shaded slightly. Bonds re- f1ected mild pressure in spots. Total sales, par value. $1,S6o, 000
 United States bonds were unchanged on call

DANNY MURPHY IN OLD TIME FORM
Connie Mack May Serve an Injunction Hin-Cncnnati Agreement Federals Contracts Are Without Reserve Clause-Danny Makes Homer With Bases Full

Danny Murphy, who has signed with the Brooklyn F'ederals, has received word from Connie Mack that an in- junction would be served on him to stop him from playing, but nothing definite has been done yet Connie is waiting to see how the Outlaws will come out with their suit against Catch CT Killiferf which will be tried in a short while.
 The Cincinnati agreement which was introduced into organized ball by David F'ultz the president of the Players Fraternity which was adopt ed, says that a player after playing with a club for 10 years is entitled to his unconditional release or he becomes a free agent. So, according to this agreement Connie Mack cannot hold Danny to anything, as he did not sign any of his contracts and was a free agent when he signed with the Fed erals. His contract with the Federals has no reserve clause attached to it nor has any, of the Federals' contracts. All the friends of Danny will be glad to know that he will receive a larger salary each year while playing with the Brooklyn Feds. Another fine feature or the~OutlawS' contract is that a play CT can be suspended only for ten days and in organized ball a player can be suspended for a whole season
 Word from Danny says that his knee is in the primest of condition and that he is in right with the natives of the south. If Connie Mack should read the account of the game that the Brook lyns played the other day he would scratch his head in wonderment. For our hero Danny made 8 homer with the bases full, besides other good healthy wallops out of the ball. The best of alI he had speed on the bases and stole 8 base, Danny says that he did not know that he had so many friends in the south and that when he walks to the plate he receives big ovation and the crowd yells: Put 1t out of the lot, Danny, and show Connie how good you are"
