For the Rexalls every man put up
good game. but they were unable to
cope with the fast passing and accn-
rate shooting OF the whitmans.
The Whitmans have acquired Hop
Smith, one of the old Mystic Five
team, and the score will show that he
was the star OF the game. Hop" made
z OF the 1S points made by tho Whit
mans. The game was interesting from
start to finish as these two teams
were supposed to be the strongest on
the floor, and as the Recalls had such
a lead In the league standing the
whitmans were the favorites.

With one Of the largest crowds Of

lures as to Cause of Sudden
Change Of Plans.

London, Aug. 14.-Wide circulation
was given on Thursday to .rumor
that the government had received
news of military successes closely af-
fecting Russia. This rumor was based
on the activity of rising prices Of
Russian securities on the stock ex-
change. Russian exchange dropped
eight points to 1876.

What word the European buyers re-
ceived from abroad remained mys-
terry. 1t was of sufficient import,
however, to cause the foreign buyers
to surrender a profit of around ten

the contracts Cancelled, so that they
might be relieved on them.
Not only were cancellations report

Whether the Dardanelles was on
the verge of being forced, which
would release Russian grains for Eu-

u. S. GOVERNMENT
REFUSES REQUEST
Munitions Sale to Warning Ma
tons Defended.
AUSTRIAN NOTE is ANSWERED
Reply to Teuton's Request Upholds
Right to Deal in Arms-No Bar
on ALPHABETICALLY Old
as the Republic.

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE reply of
the United States to the note of Aus
tria-Hungary, refusing to stop the ex-
portation of arms and munitions to
the enemies of that nation as request
ed in representations June 29, was
made public here on Sunday.
Among the reasons for it's refusal
the United States gave the following:
To refuse the sale Of implements OF
war to belligerents would force mill
tarism on the world and work against
universal peace-which is the desire
justice and righteousness with one
another
The principle of equalization urged
by Austria-Hungary, should apply to
belligerents superior on land as we'll
as sea, thus imposing on neutral ma
tons duty to sit in judgment on the
progress of a war.
During the Boer war, the Crimean
war and the Balkan war arms and am
munition were sold to belligerents by
both Germany and Hungary.
The policy of the United States has
been to permit the sale of war sup
plies to belligerents SO that this ma
ton, which in times of peace main
tains no large military establishment,
may have access to markets of other
nations for the purchase of war equip
ment when attacked by foreign
power.

RUSS WIN BIG NAVAL BATTLE
German Cruiser Reported Destroyed
in Battle.


London, Aug. ia German bat
tie cruiser was destroyed and several
other German warships severely dam
aged in a great naval battle with the
Russian feet In the Baltic sea near
Oesel island, at the entrance to the
Gulf of Riga, according to news dis
patches from Petrograd. It is assert.
ed that, though the firing was ter
rife, the Russian feet escaped any
loss or serious injury.
Russian seaplanes again rendered
invaluable assistance, it is declared.
1t is believed that the German OBJ
jective was to bottle up the Russian
fleet in the Gulf of Finland or the
Gulf of Bothnia, but the seaplanes
gave warning in time to prevent such
an issue.
The location of the battle indicates
that the Germans are trying desper-
ately to assist their northern armies
with supplies and re-enforcements
from the sea, but the Russian de-
fensive action appears able to foil such
a move.

Aid Plan for Dixie Road.

Aio Plan Tor Dixie Road.
The Wisconsin end of the proposed
improved Sheridan road from Chicago
to Milwaukee, which will run through
Racine and Kenosha counties. may
become part of the famous Dixie high
way. which bids fair within the near
future to be the longest stretch of i'm
proved highway in the world
AS soon as the plans to improve the
Sheridan road from Chicago to Mil
Waukee are formulated and become
effective the three counties mentioned
may ask to be admitted to the Dixie
association, which has control of the
stupendous project to have one long,
continuous stretch of road from Flor
This will mean that an automobile
can start from Miami, Fla, and run
over roads of concrete, asphalt or
brick, through the state for winter
tourists, through Georgia, Tennessee,
Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan
and Illinois. Michigan, after looking
on for considerable length of time,
asked for admission to the association
and was admitted a few weeks ago.
That the project devised by repre-
sentative business men in Florida is
no idle dream is evidenced from the
fact that over $10,000,000 has been
voted in bonds and in tax levies by
the various counties through which
the famous highway will pass Prop
erty owners along sections of the road
which is now being constructed have
given financial aid to the plan and
work is being rapidly pushed
Congressman "Uncle Joe" Cannon
OF Illinois on July Ia drove 14S miles,
from Danville, ILL.,, through the rain to
Watseka, ILL.,, to attend a meeting of
Illinois good road boosters, and the
octogenarian himself turned the first
spade of earth which marked the be-
ginning of the Illinois part of the
Dixie road.
In Georgia and Florida large hotels
are being built for the convenience of
tourists, while iron, steel and con.
crete bridges are replacing the old
wooden spans which for years have
arched the rivers and streams of the
different states.
The mountain counties of Ken
lucky through which the highway will
run have begun to level off the high
spots to make the road as even as
possible. Many miles of the road have
already been completed in the south
ern states as we'll as in Indiana and
Illinois. Many counties also have be.
gun to improve the roads leading to
the famous stretch, so-that trade and
business may be diverted to the towns
not on the map so far as the highway
is concerned.
Everywhere is enthusiasm. Club
women, school children and Boy
Scouts have entered into the spirit
of the plan, and weeds are being cut
down, rubbish removed and trees
planted along the roadway
Every tree planted is named after
company of the Boy Scouts which
planted the tree to perpetuate it's
memory. On the land abutting the
highway all sorts of fruit trees will
be planted, the fruit to be at the dis
'pOsal of the tourists travelling over
the road.

Found Hanging in Cell.
South Bend. Ind, Aug. 1S.-Silas N.
Ebersole, the former Dunkard minis
ter, who had been formally accused of
numbering Hazel Macklin, aged if
teen, in August, 1914, ended his life in
a cell at the county Jail by hanging.
Though there seemed no doubt that
Ebersole took his own life, Charles A.
Davey. the attorney who was to have
defended him, gave out a sensational
statement in which he said Ebersole
had been murdered. Davey named no
one. The police are investigating.
Ebersole's body was found hanging
to the iron bars in the rear of his cell.
Ebersole left nothing in the way of
a confession.

Organize to Protect Game.

H. B. Wilcox of Racine is perfect.
protection of Wisconsin's fish and
game. Mr. Wilcox has already per-
fected an organization of this charac-
ter at Mayville and at Horizon. Aft
er number of towns and cities have
been organized a county organization
will be perfected. Several counties
in the state have already been organ
lied and it is planned to perfect a
state organization before the next
meeting of the legislature. Mr. Will
cox has been engaged in this work for
the last twenty-one months.
In discussing the plans and purposes
for which the organization will work,
Mr.. Wilcox says: I'VE want coop
sportsmen so that we can get legisla-
ton that will help protect the fish
and game while the farmer will be
given laws protecting his crops and
property. The fishing and hunting are
about played out in Wisconsin and we
want to bring about conditions that
will bring back the fish and game so
that the sportsmen and the children
now growing up will be able to go
out and get some. We want the sup
port of every man who hunts or fishes
or who wants the song birds pro-
tected.
I'VE want the use of the money
taken in by the game warden's de-
partment for protecting and propa gat-
ing fish and game. The surplus Of
$1,000 last year and 100000 the year
before, our money, was used in repair.
ing and constructing roads.
1--WE want to stop the netting of fish
when they run up the streams or into
shallow water to spawn.
I'VE want coupon license system
adopted which will limit each hunter
to 100 birds each season. 1t is a
fact that one family operating on one
of our inland lakes slaughtered $4,000
birds for the market last season.
I'VE want Jail sentence instead Of
a fine for violation of the fish and
game laws.
I'VE want ferreting of rabbits

One Injury Reported and Many
Buildings Fall at FL

At EIloree a fearful cyclone swept
over Elloree Friday afternoon, ranging
from a quarter of mile to a -alf mile
in breadth and several miles in length,
uprooting giant trees and demolis2ing
a number of buildings in its path.
Mrs. j. D. Strock, VINO was passing
the Methodist church, which was COM
pletely demolished, is the only one
reported to have received any injuries.
Mrs. Strock, who stopped in the porch
of the church, was struck by piece
of the falling building. Her injuries
are said to be slight.
No casualties from the country so
far have been reported, but it was
learned that number of farm build
ings have been reduced to debris.
The cyclone appears to have started
several miles south of Elloree, sweep
ing over the main business section Of

ward the Santee river, and it is rough
ly estimated that damage amounting
to at least $4,000 has been sustained.
TIE Methodist church, three ware
houses containing 200 bales of cotton,
stores, barns, stables and other build
ings were wrecked or badly damaged.
A heavy rainfall followed the storm.
