and second with none out, and sac
rifice would have put the poisoning
runs in position. But the sacrifice is
still to be produced.
Chase, Bodie and Demmitt got the
Sox hits, Halls being a triple in the
first inning.
Guessing the Sox is a real task.
Wednesday they clouted II safeties,
and punched them when the OppOr-
tUnities were ripe. Yesterday they

come through when the sWats we're

Walter johnson is billed to pitch

and the First Ward may also go
dry.
The Chifeds dropped their first
game of the eastern trip to Buffalo,
but there is still chance for another
crack at the same battle. Tinker pro-
tested the game because of a decision
by Umpire GoeckeI in the ninth in
ming, when the Buffeds put over the
winning run. A man was on first
when Pitcher Anderson popped to
Fisk, who had gone to the mound aft
er Stanley batted for LANCE in the
eighth. Fisk dropped the ball and
tossed to Beck. Fred touched the
man on first and then stepped on the
bag, completing what he thought was
a double play. Goeckel refused to
allow it on the grounds that Beck
didn't touch the bag.
1t looked very much as though
GoeckeI pulled boner, and then
stuck to the decision, grimly, in spite
of themistake.
There was one out at the time of
the disputed play, and Buffalo would
have. been prevented from scoring.
Fisk went wild, and passed enough
athletes to force over the, winning
run.

Ply and never gives up. Two passes,
an error and three singles were
grouped in the one frame.
Young Erwin Lange pitched ] in
nings for Chicago, and was touched
for only five hits, tanning seven. He
failed in one frame, however, and
Buffalo put over three runs. The re-
cruit is still an uncertain fielder, and
got himself in trouble by making a
bad peg to Zeider on a force play.
Few young pitchers field well, 50
there is plenty of hope for LANCE in
the games to come.
Pittsburgh batted Demaree hard,
but Adams spilled his own game in
the first by an error and wild pitch.
New York only got five hits. Wagner
was out of the game and Mccarthy
went to short. Gibson, got a triple and
two singles and Mitchell single. KEEL

chased with Herzog for disputing a
decision. Davenport held the Braves

RELEASE BOUGHNER 49,
OF FORGERY CHARGE

L. A. Boughner, a dope fiend who
has been in trouble a number of
times here, was released from the
county jail at Salina, where he had
been placed awaiting trial on the
charge of forging checks. In addition
to being dope fiend, Boughner is
said to be afflicted with tuberculo-
sis and the county commissioners
released him because they thought
that he would not live long. 1t is
said that Boughner confessed to
forging the checks. He has been
sent to the home of his brother near
here.
L. A. Boughner was held here on
the charge of breaking into the
Northcraft drug store. Though sus-
picion was strong against him, there
was not enough direct evidence to
warrant trial, and he was releas-
ed, promising to go to his brothers,
home and stay out of trouble.

W. A. and e. A. Sinclair. in which
a temporary injunction was granted,
has been settled out Of court. 1t

PREVENT PERSONAL RIVALRY
Informal Meeting at Aqua Calentes
FavOrs Government Similar
to the Philippine

Washington, Oct. 10.-A commits
sion form of government for Mexi-
co until order is restored and until
the resumption of full constitution
al functions by the people, has been
suggested at the informal discus
sions at Aguas Calientes preceding
the formal meeting between repre-
sentatives of CarranZa and Villa.
This was reported to the state
department here today. The plan,
it was believed, would eliminate the
personal rivalry Of various factional
leaders and lead to early restora-
ton of strong central government.
Officials found somewhat Of o
parallel for the plan in the organi-
zation and powers Of the Philippine
commission. They thought 1t prob
able such a commission would at
first be OF a military nature.
Further reports Of distress on the
west coast of Mexico came from
Admiral Howard. The food shortage
there has been called to the atten-
ton of the American Red Cross.
