Hom. Rule Must Pass.


Mr. Asouith then definitely refused the
Unionist demand that the Home Rule bill
should be submitted TO the electors. lie
said: I'VE believe it to be wise and just
measure, and we have disclaimed and will
continue to disclaim any submission OF it

The Premier claimed that there was
complete moral and constitutional justif-
cation for the application OF the Parlia-
ment act, and passing the bill despite its
rejection by the House Of Lords. He con-
tnued a
None the less, we are earnestly a.

Mr.. Asquith said his county local option

and spoke with pleasure OF the desire

the current debate to find a road TO a set
Element He added:
For myself, repeat that am anxious
for peace. | close no door to a settle
ment, but peace-and 1 say this for both
sides-must be peace with honor, and in
any settlement reached we must secure
the putting Of Home Rule bill for Ire
land on the statute book We hope and
think that that is not incompatible with
careful provision for meeting the convic-
tons OF the minority, and I firmly believe
that in time and with experience there
will be converging OF forces in the direc-
ton of complete Irish unity"
Principle Must Be Extended.
The Premier then gave the idea OF
federal scheme for the British Isles his
blessing. He said that the same process
must be applied with the necessary va
ratons and without undue delay to other
parts OF the United Kingdom. Such a re-
construction OF the constitutional organi-
cation would. he said, lead 10 greater
efficiency in the conduct OF both local and
imperial interests. and the quickened
patriotism OF every part would stimulate
the larger patriotism of the whole.
Before closing Mr.. Asquith made a bid
Tor labor support by enumerating the re-
forms projected. He remarked that with
one exception recent by-elections had
been lost by the government by a split
lin the progressive vote" He added:
1T is time that that state of things
came to an end We must not allow our
selves to be troubled by trivial differ
onces. When united We are irresistible"
The Premier was accorded a great ova-
ton by crowds of excursionists who
thronged Ladybank from all parts OF
Scotland.

Pays a Tribute TO Army

Paying a tribute TO the army, Premier
Asquith declared:
",The British army can be counted on
from the highest 10 the lowest rank with
out qualification or reserve TO undertake
all the duties it's obligations require II to
discharge. The army is not, and | pray
may never become, a political machine.
The army has no place and no voice IN
the making OF our policy or the moulding
OF our laws. The army will hear nothing
OF politics from me. and in return ex-
pect to hear nothing OF politics from the
army"
Referring TO the subject OF exceptional
circumstances In which the army might
be called upon to assist the civil power
Premier Asquith said that in such emer-
gencies lit is the duty of the soldier and
the duty OF the civilian TO comply with
the lawful demand of the civil power
The doctrine promulgated lately oy the
leaders of the Tory party struck at the
very root not only OF army discipline. but
of democratic government"
The Premier emphasized the idea that
1.-THE new dogma now contersigned By the
Tory leaders will be invoked whenever the
spirit OF lawlessness claims TO stop the
ordinary machinery OF self-goyerning So
ciety"

OWNERS NOT MAKING MONEY
Few Clubs viii Have Balance on
Right Side Of Ledger When the
Present Campaign 10 Over.

Owners Of ball clubs are not going
to lay up q lot of money this year.
Few Of the clubs in the two major
leagues will have much OF balance
on the right side Of the ledger when
the present campaign is over. and 20
far az the Feds are concerned, their
losses must be enormous. Conditions
have not been for the best interests
Of the game this year.
There has been lack Of interest
from the outset. The public did not
take kindly to the talk Of players
Jumping and the prominence which
the mercenary end Of the sport has
been given. The threatened war
with Mexico also had its effect, and
the present European mixup also
helps to detract from the sport.
Because Of the one.sided contest In
the American league race the organi.
xation has been particularly hard hit.
The present DAce in the National
probably will save several clubs In
that league from suffering losses.

JULY WAS FULL OF FREAKS
Accidents, Extra.innlng and No.Hit
Games Among Unusual Occur.
renceS In National Game.

A series Of unusual occurrences
marked July in professional baseball.
Extra-inning, no-hit games and acct.
dents on the diamond were grouped
within few days, as was the case just
about that period in 1913.
Taking these unusual features by
dates, July IL saw Clyde Milan in col.
lision with Moeller. his teammate, as
both raced for fly ball in the Wash.

that Milan received badly fractured

cumstances and was severely injured
about the head.
A no.hit.no.run game and Q 21.innine
struggle also figured in the record Of
July II. At Pittsburgh the New York
Giants and the Pittsburgh Pirates
played 81 innings, the New York club
winning by 8 to 1. Rube Marquard
and Babe Adams. the rival pitchers,
twirled the entire contest. With the
exception Of the 24.inning game be
tween the Philadelphia Athletics and
the Boston Americans on September
1. 1905, this 10 the longest game ever
played In the major leagues.
Three days previously the Hartford
club defeated the New Haven team
Q to 1 in a 23.inning game in the East
ern association, which IL the third
longest game in the record of profes
sional baseball.
The 28.innins contest between Deca
tur and Bloomington Of the Three.Eye
league, played on May 81, 1909, still
holds first place, and the Philadelphia
Boston 24.inning match second posi-
ton in the record Of long games.
Getting back to July II again, James
Withers, pitcher Of the Duluth club Of
the Northern league, twirled q no.hit
no.run game against the Virginia clut
Of the same league. This IL the third
hitless game OF the Northern league
this season.
The next day at Lebanon, Pa, the
Lincoln Giants, q semi. professional
team. varied the schedule by defeating
the home club 20 to 3. and incidentally
scoring eight home runs. Three play
ers each secured two circuit hits.
Moving on to July 10, the records
show that the Wichita club Of the
Western league defeated Sioux Cit,
3 to . in q 21.inning game which re
quired 4 hours and IS minutes to play
On the same day at Long Branch
N. J., Jose Acosta, the Cuban pitcher
Of the seashore team, shut out the st
Louis American league club without Q
hit or run. winning a 3 to 0 victory
In which he did not give q base or

1t Is an open secret that the poor

Is due to the inability of the managers

Players who believe In having a good

THE old.time first sackers, such as
Arson and Brouthers, couldn't hold q
Job in the big league today. Comiskey
alone Of those early first sackers could

Claude Rossman was about the
last OF the old type. The Athletics
learned through Ira Thomas, previ.
ously with Detroit, that Claude
couldn't throw. Hence in Rossy's de.
clining years the Athletics played to
get the ball in his hands and then,
we'll nothing could stop them on the
