I would claim the pennant right now;
just one more pitcher that could

right-handed pitcher and we would
be up right at the top
BRANCH RICKEY--Give us two
hItters and we would have a team
that ought to win a championship or
at least satisfy every one.

one hitting outhelder TO help out
That would make us the pennant win
ner.
BILL CARRIG AN-Wagner back In

and we'd win another championship
JIM CAIILAHAN--Two hitting out
felders and the pennant is ours,
HENRY O'DAY-We need short
stop and with top notch man there
we'd go right along.
JOHN McGRAW-Needs third
haseman, OF higher caliber 10 make
the pennant cinch
FRED CI.ARK--One more catcher
and an outfelder who can hit and he
would claim the pennant
GEORGE STALLINGS-A first
baseman. and a finished catcher TO
handle and steady young pitchers, and
his team would be up near the top.
MILLER HUGGINS--A hitting out
fielder and one more pitcher-and the
Cards would be there or Whereabouts.
WILBUR ROBTNSON--A short-stop
and one more reliable pitcher.
tRED DOOIN--A shortstop to make
the team formidable.

FRANK GLASS LOSES SEAT
Senate Decides, 80 to 81, Not to Seat
Albanian.

Washington.-By a majority of one
vote, 80 to 81, Frank P Glass of Ala
bama, lost his fight for a seat in the
United States senate. The senate sus-
tanned the recommendation of the COM
mittee on privileges and elections,
which held that Mr.. Glass was not
entitled to be seated because his APP
pointment by Governor O'Neal to sue
coed the late Senator Joseph F. john
ston was made after the seventeenth
constitutional amendment directing the
election of senators by the people had
been proclaimed in full effect.
In the face of determined opposition
from the majority members of the
committee, headed by Senator Kern,
the champion of the Albanian, pro
ceeding from forlorn hope, made re-
markable progress in gaining votes and
the narrow margin by which they lost
the fight created great surprise.

Washington. -Rioting and pillaging
broke out in Cape Haitien to such an
extent that Commander Bostwick OF
the gunboat Nashville landed eighty
men to protect lives and property of
foreign residents.
Commander Bostwick took action at
the request of foreign consuls. In
structions to his landing force were
to protect Americans, all foreigners
and theier property.
Davilmar Theodore, who had pro-
claimed himself provisional president
before his defeat at Gonaives at the
hands of the Zamor brothers, is trying
to set up a government at Cape Hal
ten, where he retreated after the bat
tie. He has appointed cabinet, but,
according to Commander Bostwicks
report, appears to be losing control OF
his forces.
Latest reports from Captain Russell
of the battleship South Carolina at
Port-au Prince, expressed apprehen-
sion for the safety of the city. How
ever. he reports no organized effort
to expel foreign naval forces policing
the city, though his earlier reports in
dicated dissatisfaction by natives gen

STATEMENT MADE IN LETTER
Thinks Nations Honor Is at Stake
in Regard to Panama Canal

row Wilson, in a letter to William
l.. Marbury of this city, says the ex.
emption of American coastwise ship
ping from Panama canal tolls con
stitutes a we're ymistaken policy from
everey point of view," and benefits,
for the present, at any rate, only a
monopoly" The president also pays
a high tribute to Secretary of State
Bryan, who, he says, deserves mot
only our confidence, but our affection
ate admiration"
with regard to the question of ca
nal tolls" says the letter, my opinion
is very clear. The exemption consti-
stitutes a very mistaken policy from
every point of view" and benefits,
unjust; as a matter of fact, it bene-
fits, for the present, at any rate, only
a monopoly; and it seems to me in
clear violation of the terms of the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty.
There is, of course, much honest
difference of opinion as to the last
point, as there is, no doubt, as to the
others; but it is at least debatable,
and if the promises we make in such
matters are debatable, l, for one, do
not care to debate them. l think the
country would prefer to let no ques'
ton arise as to its whole-hearted pur-
pose to redeem it's promises in the
light of any reasonable construction of
them, rather than debate, point of
honor.
your reference to the secretary of
state shows how comprehensively you
have looked on during the last few
months. Not only have Mr.. Bryans
character, his justice, his sincerity, his
transparent integrity, his Christian
principle, made a deep impression up
on all with whom he has dealt; but
his tact in dealing with men of many
sorts, his capacity for business, his
mastery of the principles of each mat
ter he has been called upon to deal
with have cleared away many diff
Guilty and have given to the policy
of the state department definiteness
and dignity that are very admirable"
