 Comparing the speed of fthe Peugeot to the muzzIe velocity of 3-inch gun used in the United States navy, 1t is found that Goux travelled more than 1-10 as fast as shell from one of the large guns The speed Of the projectiIe is approximately % feet a second.

Manager BouItes of the Bridgeport club announced today that he has se- cured Pitcher Martin Walsh from. Montreal of the International league Walsh is brother of Ed Walsh of the Chicago White lSox.

 The defeat of Leach Cross by Fred- die Welsh the British lightweight champion, places the latter in a pcsf- ton to demand a match with Willie Ritchie for the worlds championship. According to reports from Los Angeles the match between Welsh and Cross was not of the Slashing kind, but more on the scientific order. as the Briton was content to play safe, out pofntirg the New York boy at his leis- ure It demonstrated that Welsh is a wonderfully clever boxer and hard to get at when he wants to play on the defensive contest between Welsh and Ritchfe would decide the worlds title.

 New York. May 14--Tn a letter now being sent to secretaries of clubs in it's organization. the United States Golf Association sounds g warning to anna teur golf players who are treading on the border line of professionalism.
 Owing to the fact that certain situations now exist, says the letter, eft is necessary to change section 7 of the by-Iaws of this association which defines the status of an amateur golf player
 Situations complained of in the letter include the writing of articles for money on how to play certain shots accepting free board from Fo- te1s to play in tournaments held for advertising purposes and accepting certain makes of golf clubs and balls. The letter asks each club to make suggestions regarding changes in the rule defining amateurs with the aim in view of barring evidences of prbfes- sionalism.

HONOR AMERICAN HEROES
Sailors and Marines Killed In Battle
at Vera Cruz Are Brought Home
All Nations Pay Tribute.

New York.-The nations dead-the
seventeen blue jackets and marines
killed at the occupation of Vera Cruz
have been brought home.
No sun ever beamed brighter than
that which struck upon the colors OF
the funeral cruiser, the United States
ship Montana, as she appeared
through the haze of the narrows from
the anchorage off Sandy Hook. The
first glimpse of the Montana and her
convoy was most impressive.
At the prescribed clip of IL knots
the United States ship Wyoming led
the way. The Montana came along,
nineteen ship lengths away. at the
same speed. The regulation distance
also separated the presidents private
yacht, the Mayflower, which was fly
ing the flag Of the secretary of the
navy.
Just as the Wyoming nosed out of
the narrows the converted Portuguese
yacht, the Ideal, flying the Portu-
guest flags at halfmast, gave the first
salute. by dipping colors. Instantly
the Wyoming responded while the
Ideal crossed the bow to starboard.
Then the flag saluting came from
ships at anchor on all sides. At Fort
Hamilton great crowds in automo-
biles and afoot lined the shore road
to watch the flags nat the fort dip
gracefully to the incoming funeral
cruiser and her convoy.
Across the narrows the sun shone
full upon the assembled garrison of
Fort Wadsworth, where the colors
were also dipping.
The crew of the funeral cruised
stood at general quarters. The flag
draped caskets were easily discerned
on the superstructure with their blue
jacket guard, each armed with a rifle.
The caskets we're laid out in rows
Of four on the boat deck, just abaft
the bridge, on the port side. The blue
jacket guard of honor stood at atten-
ton during the passage through the
lower bay.
Over the office of the French con-
sui the flag of France was at half
mast. And every noticeable building
in lower New York had the national
colors at halfmast.
BY the time the ships passed the
Statue of Liberty and Fort William on
Governors Island it was a case OF
constant saluting by the dipping of
colors to passing boats, land forts and
buildings.

MEDiAToRs WOULD GIVE BOTH
FACTIONS REPRESENTATION
IN REPUBLIC.
SUCCESS IS VERY DOUBTFUL
Plan to Appoint Commission of Five,
Two to Be Named BY Huerta,
Two BY constitutionalists,
Fifth BY Mediators.

Washington, May INFLAMMATION
Of General Huerta and the establish
ment of a provisional government in
Mexico in which both Huerta and
the Constitutionalist factions would
be represented, is contemplated in a
plan which the three South American
mediators now are working out, to
be proposed for the solution Of the
entire Mexican problem.
1t was learned that the proposal
might be that the setting up Of a
temporary government be undertaken
by a commission Of five persons, two
of them to be named by Huerta, two
by the Constituencies and the fifth
by the mediators.
While the mediators have with
drawn their invitation to the Consti-
t~utionalists to send delegates to their
conference, it generally is believed
that information is being sought as
to whether the Constitutionalists
would consent, in case of the elm
nation of Huerta, to some form Of
temporary government in which he
would be represented. Those close
to the mediators say it is believed
that some such arrangement al this is
the only possible one under which
peace may be restored in Mexico un-
der conditions satisfactory to all Mex
lean factions and to the United States.
