BRAVES RALLY in
Time TOWN
EverS Starts Bombardment
Which Spells Defeat
for Cardinals.
lBy Telegraph TO The Tribune

Boston, Sept. l6.-The Cardinals,
stubborn crew, who still believe that
they have a chance for the National
League pennant, opened series here
to-day against the Braves and dropped
the first game by score of s to 3.
The score was tie when the eighth
inning opened, but at this stage of the
battle the Braves began to bat and
drove three runs across the plate. The
Boston team fielded brilliantly, par
ticularly Johnny Evers, who handled
eleven chances without an error. He
also started the rally in the eighth,
when he beat out an infield hit. His
playing was timely, for the afternoon
had been set apart as Evers day. The
fans presented chest of silver to the
second baseman.
In the eighth Evers made an infeld
hit and went to third on Beck's bad
throw. Connolly's sacrifice fly scored
him. Devore walked and crossed the
plate on Schmidt's triple. Red Smith
brought the first baseman home with a
long fly.
The score follows:

TIP TOPS Lose
THIRD STRAIGHT
Shut Out by indianapolis,
Drop Into Tie for
Fourth Place.

The Brooklyn Tip Tops lost their
third consecutive game to the Indian
apolis Hoosiers at Washington Park
yesterday afternoon, and dropped into
fourth place, tied with the Buffalo
team. The score was 2 to 0, the second
shut-out defeat suffered by the Tip
Tops in the three games.
Brooklyn had a chance to score IN
the ninth inning, but with a runner oil
second and two out, the hard hitting;
Steve Evans gave a realistic imitation
of the immortal Casey. Every ball that
whistled past his bat was beauty.
Moseley, formerly of the Boston Red
Sox, prosecuted the Tip Tops from
start to finish. He allowed only four
hits, and since these came at widely
separated intervals there was little
nourishment in them. Ed LATTE was
batted hard, but after the second inn
ing he pulled together in clever style
and had little trouble in blocking the
path to the plate.
The visitors scored in the first and
second innings. With two out in the
first frame, Kauf singled and stole sec
ond. He scored on Laporte's single
In the second Rausch took two bases
on HOfman's erratic throw, rounded
third on wild pitch and Tailed on 4
single by Rariden.
The score follows:

Head of Federal League APP.
peaIs to Organized Ball
to Give His Clubs
a Show.

Chicago, Sept. l6.--James A. Gill
more, president of the Federal League,
in a letter to members of the National
Baseball Commission, asked to-day
that his league have a chance to take
part in the worlds series.
Mr.. Gilmore declared that the ma
tional agreement did not prohibit the
clubs in organized baseball from play
ing an outside club. He also outlined
the claims of the Fcdcrals TO be re-
garded as a major league and contend
ed that no club could rightfully claim
the worlds championship until it had
met the pennant winner of the Fed
eral League.
"Our organization is backed by bust
ness men of high standing, who stand
for every principle which leads to the
improvement of the game of baseball
he wrote. "The Federal League has on
its roster many stars of worldwide
fame, and has gathered about it as
splendid an aggregation of baseball
players as is possible for any league.
while it may be true that in your
national agreement we are classed as
an enemy of organized baseball, the
phrase cannot survive the force Of
time and the demands of the sport low
ing public. Your national agreement
contains no provision prohibiting you
from an honest contest with any ball
club you may see fit to meet, and be-
fore either of the two clubs in o. an
lied baseball which win pennants in
their respective leagues can claim the
worlds championship it must in some
ma ner play the winner of the Federal
League pennant.

OFFICIALS AGREE ON
ARMY-NAVY GAME
Football Classic May Be Played
on Franklin Field This
Season.
From The Tribune Bureau

Washington, Sept. 16-Indications
point to the holding Of the Army and
Navy football game in Philadelphia
this year. The following year, accord
ing to an agreement reached between
the Secretaries of War and Navy to-
day, this football classic probably will
be played in New York, and thereafter
for period of eight years the pros
poets arc that it will be played in New
York and Washington in alternate
years.
Commander Pringle and Lieutenant
Fairchild conferred with Secretary
Daniels to-day, and Colonel Wilcox and
Captain Koehler conferred with Secre-
tary Garrison at Seabright. The agree
ment reached to-day resulted from
these two conferences.
A tentative plan to hold the game in
New York and Washington OH alternate
years was reached some time ago, but
Representative Fitzgerald, of Brooklyn,
acting in the interest of New York con-
stituents, blocked the plan to hold the
game in Washington by giving notice
that he would not permit any charge
for admission to a game held on gov
eminent property in Washington. Now
that an agreement has been reached
whereby the game will be held here in
alternate years, however, it is assumed
that Mr.. Fitzgerald will withdraw his
objection.
Ii is too late to arrange for this
years game in Washington, so there is
every prospect that it will be played
on Franklin Field. Next year, as it
will. be West Points turn to name the
place, the Polo Grounds doubtless will
be selected.

Radium Mining Improbable

Washington. Jan. 22.-Vigorous op-
position to the proposal to withdraw
radium lands from entry was made
before the house mines committee
yesterday by Thos. R. Henahan, state
mining commissioner of Colorado who
declared such action would ruin the
radium mining industry.
"All we want is to be let alone" he
declared, 1--WE are getting out the ra-
dium. If you tie up these lands pros.
pectors will not 60 into them. AS it
is 80 out of 100 prospectors fail. What
they ned Is encouragement, not dis
couragement, if this radium is to be
mined"
Joseph M. Flannery, president of
the Standard Chemical company of
Pittsburg said his company had spent
in three years $65O,0O0 to produce
two grams of radium. The grams
cost $3.50. 900 to produce, he estimated
and brought In $240,0O0.

Extend irrigation Payments

Washington, Jan. 24.-Representa-
tives Evans and Stout of Montana at
tended a conference today between
Secretary Lane and congressman
from all the other western states to
discuss a pending bill giving settlers
on government reclamation projects
20 years in which to pay for water,
instead of 10 years, as required by the
existing law. There was general
agreement on the main purpose of
the bill, but another conference will
be held to perfect details over which
some disagreement arose today.
There was difference of opinion as
to whether any payment should be
exacted during the early years of set
tlement, and the indication is that a
bill will be framed to require settlers
to pay either or 10 per cent. water
charges at the time of filing, and then
be exempt from further payments for
three or five years. It was not de-
termined whether the bill shall stip-
ulate graduation of payments, ap-
plicable to all projects, or whether
it shall be left to the discretion of
the secretary to say how much shall
be paid each year.

Will Prohibit Tipping

Washington, Jan. %. - President
Wilson promulgated by executive or
der tday what is practically an anti
tippin law for the Panama canal
zone. Aside from prohibiting employ

ceivin rebates or commissions on
supplis, it prohibits gifts intended to
influere any employe on the isthmus
withot the knowledge of the employ
er. lis entitled an order ito prevent
the crrupt influencing of agents or

ANTITRUST LEGISLATION
Measures Suggested BY President viii
Soon Be Considered

Washington, Jan. 23.-The anti
trust legislative program, as outlined
in bills made public yesterday, is not
the last word in proposed remedial
legislation to regulate big business.
That the preliminary measures may
be altered or extended was emphasiz-
ed today, in both branches of con-
gress, and the president let it be
known he did not consider the forms
of the bills drafted closed.
Pursuant to the purpose of admin
istration leaders to exhaust the sub
ject, it was determined by the house
judiciary and senate Interstate COM
merce committee not to introduce at
this time the measures relating to
prohibiting interlocking directorates,
definitions of restraint of trade and
specification of "out throat" competi.
ton. Hearings on the questions are
to be held before the bills go to con.
gress.
The interstate trade commission bill
introduced yesterday will be taken up
next week by the house interstate
and foreign commerce committee
which may see fit to alter the provis
ions suggested by the judiciary sub
committee, and Senator Newlands
chairman of the senate interstate
commerce committee.

Suit Against Butter Trust

Chicago, Jan. 22.-Eggs, butter and
oleomargarine will sizzle in the fed
eral frying pan here next week, un-
less unforeseen complications arise to
delay the trial of cases now on the
docket in Judge Landis' court.
Arguments on the governments
civil antitrust suit against the Chi
cago butter and egg board are sched-
uled to begin before Judge Lands on
Monday. The same day has been set
for beginning the trials of prominent
officials of several of the big oleomar-
garine companies who are under fed
eral indictment for alleged conspiracy
to violate the federal laws governing
the payment of special tax on oleo-
margarine containing an artificial COL
oring matter. Both the butter and
egg and the oleomargarine cases have
attracted wide attention.

Makes Powder Cheaper

Washington, Jan. 26.-The army
appropriation bill now ready for re.
port to the house will contain a pro-
vision to require the government to
manufacture, instead of purchase, the
bulk of its munitions of war. A SIM
liar provision will be in the fortifica-
tions appropriation bill.
Rear Admiral Strauss, chief of ord
nance, stated to the house naval COM
mittee today that the government at
the Indian Head, Maryland, proving
grounds, had produced powder at 40h
cents a pound, while the only private
