A large tract of the great Chinese

of varying estimates as to the size of
China have been given. Any estimate
can merely be an approximation rep
resenting the last guess. This last
guess is estimated to be about 4,000,-
600 square miles for China's area
about 100000 miles larger than the
total area Of our United States. While
one of the eighteen provinces Of China
Is several thousand square miles small.

within the borders OF this Chinese
province there have been dwelling
20 times as many Chinese inhabitants
as there are Americans who dwell In
our great state Of Texas.
The size OF our own state OF In
diana corresponds approximately to
the size of the very smallest OF all
the 1S Chinese provinces. There are,
however more than five times as
many Cinnamon dwelling within their
native province as there are Amerf.
cans living In our Hoosier state.
The ratio OF ave to one applies gem
orally when making population COM
parisons between any locality OF China
and America. Usually when the Chi.

meant is China proper. This latter
is composed of 18 provinces. There

mi GILMORE
MEET IN

Buffalo. n. Y, July President
James A. Gilmore of the Federal base
ball league and Ty Cobb of the De-
troit American league club met yes
terday in a hotel here. Rumors that
the Federal league official had made
Cobb an offer We're denied both by
Gilmore and Cobb.
W just had a pleasant chat said
President Gilmore. I'VE discussed
the baseball situation in general and
after a few minutes talk Cobb left to
umpire a baseball game. The matter
of his joining the Fedora league now
or at any future time was not raised"
President Gilmore stated that he
came here to assist Hal Chase in free
ing himself from the injunction .ob-
tanned by attorneys of the Chicago
White Sox which prohibits the first
haseman from playing with the Buffa-
10 FederalS in New York state. He
brought with him the leagues attor-
ney, and stated that papers probably
will be served within the next few
days. President Gilmore left for Chi
cago last night and Cobb left by boat
for Detroit.

FOREIGNERS ON
u. S. DEFENDERS
Aid Of Norway and Sweden
Invoked in Guarding
Americas Yacht Cup.

New York. July With the vari-
the t%uning-up races corrected, the trio
or cup defense yachts are abou to
enter upon the second stage of the
Americas cup preliminaries. Begin
ming next week off Newport will be
staged the first official tests of the
Resolute, Nanitie and Defiance and
the cup committee will Ease it's final
selection of a defender upon the re-
suit OF these and subsequent races.
These initial point races, as they
are termed since the points scored will
count for or against the defense as
pirants. begin On July 7 with a series
of round robin races in which each
yacht will race the two others in turn.
1t is a peculiar fact in connection
with these cup yacht crews that al
most without exception they are for
eigners. Thu captains of the three
sloops have invoked the aid of Nor
way and Sweden in defending the
Americas cup for Vanitie. Defiance
and Resolute are all manned, for
ward of the mast. by descendants of
the Norsemen. Years ago., Americas
cup defenders were manned with Pc
noGscot bay tars, mostly from Deer
Island, but very few Yankee seamen
have been seen on the cup yachts
since the Vinal Haven crew on the
Defender assisted in defeating the
Valkrie III.
Morse Man Resolute.
Captain christensen, R~esolute,
brought nearly a score of me from
his native town of Bergen, Norway,
far up near the land of the midnight
sun, while Captain Dennis of the
Vanitie also recruited their crews
with Scandinavians, although all
hands give South Brooklyn as their
hailing port. They are a lively set of
tars, these yellow-haired red checked
sons of the Norwegian fjords, with
nerves of steel. 1t takes a cool head
to occupy the masthead position en-
a cup defender, especially in a smart
breeze and heavy sea.
Every man on the three boats Is a
veteran, and with few exceptions have
worked a ear and some of them five
years under their respective skipper.
Captain Howell Of the Defiance took a
number of his men from the sloopl
Gstalena. although some of them sailed
with Commodore E. Walter Clark on
the schooner Irolita, now the tender
to the Defiance.

RACER CRASHES INTO
FENCE AT SIOUX IT

Sioux City, Iowa, July IA desire
to take the turns at a seventy-fve-
mile an hour speed caused the first
accident on the Sioux City speedway
here yesterday, when Harry Shrunk,
in a White, al into the inside fence
of the track and damaged his car to
some extent and tore up the fence for
sixteen yards. Shrunk and his me-
chanician were not injured. but their
machine is in such condition that 1t is
probable that he will be unable to
start.
Shrunk, who is a local boy. was at
tempting to duplicate the feats Of such
stars as Patschke, Old1eld. Anderson,
Wilcox and Richenbacker when he
went into the south turn wide open.
He swung into the turn without a mis-
hap, but as he neared the center the
right rear and front tires blew. The
machine became unmanageable and
went into the rail,

the third straight game. The score
was 5 to 1.
Several times after that session, the
Flickertails had opportunities to win
h game, but they were unable to hit
in the pinches.
A near-rally in the ninth inning had
the crowd on edge for a few minutes,
but Foster, who, in the first inning,
scored the locals only run after ia
ing a triple, hit into a double, re-
firing the side.
The bases were full at the time, and
only n was down. In this same in
ming, ill-luck was with the locals
again, for. in connecting with the
ball, Foster broke the bat n it did
not, go far. 1t fell into the second
baseman's hands, and he had no diff
fculty in doubling on Freer. who was
sent in to pinch hit.
Morse did the hurting for the To-
calls. He was in fine form last night.
and held the visitors to six hits. which
were scattered over five innings. In
only one frame did the Twins get
more thar one hit on him. and, these
two blows. coupled with an error, cost

walked four.
Dumont pitched good ball for the
visitors. He was tapped for seven
hits. which he kept we'll scattered. He

Grand Forks got its only run in the

inning. Murphy. up first. famed, and
