SENATOR TlLLMAN SCORES THE PRESIDENT FOR HIS STAND
 ON CANAL TOLLS ISSUE.
SPLIT PARTY IN FACTIONS
Speaks of Roosevelt, "The Great Ad- Vertiser,7 Who Has Come Home ighted" to Find the 6Iunders That the Democrats are Making.

Washington, June 9-The senate today marched steadily toward final action on the tolls exemption repeal bill, but leaders tonight were unwil- ling to predict the day when a vote can be taken.
 Even with a night session tonight there was no certainty of a vote on the first proposition to be disposed of the so-called Simmons-Norris amendment qualifying terms of the bill,
 Senator Borah, an anti-repeal leader predicted that this amend ment alone would be debated four or five hours. Action within the next day or two, however, hardly can be avoided unless there are unexpected developments or an unlocked for fili- buster on the part of anti-repealers.
 Senator 1illman of South Carolina today made an unusual speech criti- cisns the president in vigorous terms country at this time and endangering the chances of the democratic party in congressional elections next fall. Senator Tillman announced he would vote for repeal only because he felt his state party convention had freed him from the tolls joker in the Baltimore patform.
 Tt staggers my common sense and have been unabe 10 understand just why he projected the fight on his party at this time," he said.
 "lt is of great importance to the democratic party to control the house at the next election and l believe the president should have kept quiet until that election was over."
 This speech came at the close of day devoted to debate on the tolls bill.
 Until this issue was pressed to the front the course of democracy had been onward and upward" Senator THman declared. There are so many things of more importance that the democrats ought to do that must say in my opinion it was a great blunder on the part of the president. The democratic party instead of pre- sentiug a solid united front, is split into contending factions" The senator> recalled that Roose- trelt, the great advertiser" had come home, "deelishted." Then he devoted his attention to Senator O'Gorman, anti-repeal leader sug- gesting that in the next campaign the New York senator would have some difficulty in explaining why two blanks so antagonistic as the tolls and ship subsidy blanks were placed
 in the Baltimore platform.

Three Cities May Be Dropped

we have made a mighty hard fight
against tremendous odds-against
odds so big that few persons ever
thought we would last right up to
now. But we're here to stay-and
Wen stay a good bit longer than any
other parties who have been here be-
fore us.
1--WE mean to give the fans major
league baseball, and when they come
to our parks and see the games l
guess they will admit they are getting
it. Some of our enemies have de-
clared that our lineups will be COM
posed of 'hasbeens and 'never-wus-
sers.' That's a bit laughable.
CsTT is true that we have some vet
L Grams on our rosters, but they
still have two or three good years OF
baseball in their systems Long be-
fore they are forced to go into the
discard many of the youngsters we
have will be ranking among the
brightest stars that ever shone on
the diamond. We have under con-
tract now some young players, here
tofore unheard of. who will prove to
be sensations in their first year out.
Had we cared to sign up players
already under contract to organized
baseball we could have secured the
signatures Of at least $50, and among
that number are the greatest play ers
in both of the big leagues But when
we started out we announced that we
would not sign up a player who was
under contract, and we have adhered
to that rule"

JEW YORK, Feb. 19.-The Fed
IN eral League circuit in 1915 will
be stronger and more compact
than the rather unwieldy one with
which the Federals will open the 1914
season.
President James A. Gilmore, of the
Federals, refuses to state definitely
just what cities will be dropped in
1915 and which new ones will be
taken in, but from one of the men
close to Gilmore and the Federal af-
fairs comes the tip that Kansas City.
Indianapolis and Buffalo will be sup
planted by Cleveland, Cincinnati, and
either New York City or Washington.
The Federals just now are at work
building stands that will seat from
$4,000 to $4,000 With the exception
of Chicago, st. Louis, Brooklyn and
Baltimore, the stands being erected
are regarded as temporary structures.
AS little money as possible is being
put into the erection of these stands,
no doubt because 1t is planned to
abandon them next year.
UTHE 1914 season win be something
of an experiment all the year for

it will be the first year in baseball
But we are learning fast; we are

that Jimmy was the real punch

fail because of the absence of the

TT was never figured around
here that Clabby was much of
a knocker-out at any stage of
his carer, and his friends did
not figure that with his extreme
cleverness he needed better than
the ordinary punch to win his
battles. The fact that he didn't
drop them for the count in four
out of 1--WE of his contests didn't
initiate against his popularity
around here, for he seems to
have just as many friends as
ever among the fans.

to take him twice, once in Den
