MORAN A FoUR-FLUsHER.
By Hal Sheridan.

New York, July 7.-Commenting here
on the recent Jack Johnson. Frank Mo.
ran fight in Paris, Bob Edgren. sport.
ing editor of the New York World, had
the following to say:
ITS fairly good thing to have
all the confidence in the world, but
it s much better to have good punch.
And it's still better to have the will
to go in aud deliver that puuch-or go
down trying.
=" Frank Moran lasted twenty rounds
with Jack johnson. There would have
been more honor for hiuSnlf if, instead
of losing the decision he had gone
down to early defeat while doing his
best to win. Can you imagine Bob
titzsimmons in his fighting days
dawdling through 20 rounds with
johnson, taking Il constant rapping and
maulng aud never once tossing victory
or defeat into the balance and going

BASEBALL FANS REJOICE
OVER SECURING AL COOK

Oakland, Cal, July baseball en-
thusiasts here were mbiant today over
the trade consummated yesterday by
which Shortstop AL Cook and Pitcher
Bill Malarkey go to Sacramento in ex.
change for "Dutch" Klamitter.
"l feel confident, said Jack Cook,
secretary of the Oakland club, today,
"that the trade win bolster up the
Oaks lineup"
While Cook and Malarkey were fac.
tors in the winning of the pennant by
Oakland in 1912, both have been going
poorly this year. Cooks fielding has
been up to the standard, but he has
fallen off woefully with the hat. His
standing with the willow is barely over
the 200 mark. Malarkey's work in the
box also has been ineffective. Out of
IA starts, he has won four games and
lost 10, Klawitter has a fairly good
record this season, having won 10 games
and lost 10.

WILL ORDER DECREASE
IN SMALL PACKAGE RATES

Decreases in express rates on
smaller weight packages will be
ordered soon by the Kansas public
utilities commission, according to q
statement made by C. F. Foley,
chairman of the commission. The
new interstate rates put in effect
by the j. c. c. the first OF this
month have affected a discrimina-
ton against interstate shipments in
Kansas that demands correction,
the utilities commission holds.
Under the new rates now in
force, a 25-lb. package sent from
Abilene to Kansas City. Mo-. would
cost So cents. To send the same
package to Armstrong, Kan, just
this side OF the state line, would
cost as cents.
When the weight of the package
nears the l00-lb. limit, the rate to
Kansas points has remained the
same while the interstate commerce
commission rates on interstate ex-
press is higher. To send a 1O0-lb.
package to Armstrong, Kan. costs
$1.35; to send the same package to
Kansas City, Mo-, would cost $3.50.
Under the new interstate COM
merce commission rates, 100-lb.
package can ben sent to Chicago for
$3.50 while the old rate was $685..
We expect to make the intra-
state rates on light weight ship
ments by express as low as on in
terstate shipments" said Chairman
Foley in a recent interview. The
express companies increased their
rates ON heavier shipments and de-
creased them on lighter shipments,
the dividing line being between so
and rs pounds. These changes were
on interstate shipments and were
approved by the interstate COM
MERGE commission. Then the COM
panies applied to this commission
lOT pcImIbSlOH " tAoI &c thC ooMO
rates on all intrastate shipments as
On interstate. The commission re-
used this application, pending an
Investigation into the whole matter.
This Investigation already has been,
ordered.

natter OF intra-state rates, and Will
make up schedule ourselves. do
lot know whether there will be any 7
changes from the rates
