to progress from the head of the mid
dleweight division to a place among
the heaVies he will be able to will his
high standing to his brother Tom.
For Tom is a battler possessing
everything that Mike has and is
younger than the famous phantom.
Therefore, it is reasonable to presume
that he will continue his education in
the ring game and rise high among
the Clabbys, Chips and McGOortys.
Brother Tom took Fighting Billy
Murray of California on for a ten
round tussle up in Hudson, Wis, last
night, and the coast scrappeT was
trimmed with neatness and dispatch.
Gibbons did everything that a first
class fighter should do and made
mighty few mistakes. In the early
rounds he was cautious, having heard
much of Murray's Walloping power.
He gained confidence as the mill
progressed and sailed into his more
experienced opponent.
And both men fought. Gibbons,
however, had the advantage in nearly
every exchange and on several occa-
sions had Murray in distress. Muir
ray was swinging wild in an effort to
land a lucky knockout, but Gibbons
remained cool and elUded the slams.
Both boys were we'll marked at the
end of the tenth round.
Gibbons did not do as much dam
age to the coast fellow. as Eddie Nc
Goorty did, but he fought about as
workmanlike battle, and right now
could give the Oshkosh hero a stiff
argument, If he continues to inn
prove at his present rate he will fear
none of the top-notchers in a year, |
and the remarkable spectacle of two |
brothers fighting for a championship !
is not an impossibility.
Knockout Brown, the local Greek |
middle, has finally landed a fight. He |

If they aren't salVed with the coin

Just what form this desperation will

gobbled up by either the American or
National leagues. Possibly the
minors might take them, as Prender-

Three-Eye league. Fisk, however, is
a product of the local sandlots.
Last season Prendergast is re-
ported to have received 50, 400, con-
siderably more coin. than he was
given in the Three-Eye circuit in
1913. Fisk's salary check was for an
unknown sum.
In matter of earned runs off their
pitching Prendergast had a better
record than Fisk, though Max won
more games than Mike. Prendergast
was not well during a portion of the
season and that affected his work.
Both of the boys showed flashes Of
form during the season, but on their
records a boost of 5 per cent sounds
quite reasonable.
Certainly in no other line of en-

raise if his work was only fifty-ffty.
Tinker is so fixed for pitchers that

WASHINGTON, June 14.-While
President Wilson marks time walt
ing for the receipt Of the German
reply 10 his latest demand. the State
Department will complete compilation
of the data for the proposed note to
the Allies.
Already great mass of informa-
ton. showing Just how American
trade is being hampered is on file.
Chandler Anderson. who is acting as
counselor of the department, has been
looking into the situation for several
weeks He has prepared a record
which shows that not alone have
American cargoes been detained al
though plainly destined to neutral
countries, but that even when re-
leased, the owners have sustained
losses that they have no chance Of
being compensated for.
II is not likely that this note will
be finished until the German reply Is
received and the matters in dispute
with the Kaiser's government are on
the road TO satisfactory adjustment.
The President has emphatically de-
clared for one thing at a time. lnas-
much, however. as IL is admitted that
the data for the note has. nearly all
been compiled. officials see in this
admission a reflection of the admin
istration's confidence that the German
situation is very greatly improved.
Advices from Berlin indicate that
there has been a radical change in
the sentiment of German leaders to-
Ia.
last note was sent; the majority of
the officials there were opposed TO
any concessions. The contrary is
declared to be the case at present.
The only group which is not quoted
as favoring arrangements TO prevent
further misunderstanding is the
small group surrounding Grand Ad-
miral Tirpitz.

Find BODY With
WEIGHT FAST TO
IT IN THE RIVER
Deputy Coroner Nichols In
clineS to Suicide Idea
Rather Than Murder
MAY have WORKED IN
PHILADELPHIA BREWERY

With a roll Of steel spring wire
weighing fifty or more pounds strap
ped around the waist, the body Of an
unidentified white man was found in
the Christiana river, near No. bridge
Of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, not far from the mouth of the
Brandywine, this morning. The dead
man. who appears to have been about
fifty years of age, had nothing in his
pockets that might furnish a clue ex-
cept book of rules and regulations
of the Philadelphia Brewers Asso-
citation and a package of mourning
envelopes and writing paper.
Deputy Coroner Nichols, who re-
moved the body to the morgue, said
he was unable to state whether the
man had committed suicide or had
been murdered and then thrown over
board with the weight attached to
the body. When asked if he thought
il was a case of foul play, he said
1T is impossible to tell, the body
being so badly decomposed, but l
think it is a case of suicide"
The body was found by a deck hand
on a dredge which was working near
the railroad bridge II was floating
out with the tide. The body was made
fast and Deputy Coroner Nichols was
notified.
When he arrived on the bank TO
get the body, il was discovered that
it was held by some weight. After
Mr.. Nichols secured. assistance the
remains we're lifted from the water.
The heavy weight which had been tied
around Tho mans waist dangled
from it.
The body was taken to the morgue.
where an examination was made Of
( the clothing The body showed no
( tattoo marks, the flesh having de-
B composed to such an extent that IL
+ fell from the bones. In the pockets
of the coat we're the rules of the
Brewers Association, of Philadelphia
and the morning paper.
The drowned man had light hair an
light grayish moustache. The clothin
was of good texture, being of blacl
serge. The shirt, which was of stripe
/ material. was of good quality, as wer
the underclothes and hosiery.
Owing to the condition of the body i
was necessary to bury it this Afternoon
at Farnhurst.
Chief of Police Black, when advised o

afternoon, stated that he did not hear o

BERLIN. via The Hague, June A.
America has no need to be apprehen-

Everywhere in Berlin a decided
feeling Of optimism prevails, regard
ing the possibilities of a German
American agreement High officials Of
the foreign office. editors of Berlin

another term were re-elected-on Sat
urday. Out of a total of 1854 votes
cast at the school election on Satur-
day, 500 votes were cast by women

there was but one contest.
The men elected Saturday were:

Members of the Board OF Education
seeking reelection had an army of hired
workers in the First, Third and Ninth
wards particularly. The Democratic or.
ganization workers turned out to aid Dr.
/ Cooper in the First ward, and he also
| had the aid of some Republicans who
had been lined up by James Logue for
Dr. Cooper. In the Third ward the
Nerger hired workers included Republi-
cans and Democrats alike, there being
more of the Democrats than Repubi-
cans. Deputy Sheriff James Brown
being in charge Of the Nerger forces. In
! the Ninth ward Mr.. Logue had a host of
workers, and Samuel n. Baynard, presi-
dent Of the Board of Education, worked
openly and actively for Logue at the
polls.
The hottest battle in many years was
that in the First ward At the Third

TELLS OF ABUSE

When the divorce case Of Delray G.
Brown VS.. Martha V. Brown was call
ed in Superior Court today, Harry Z.
.Joslyn asked for $50 expenses for the
plaintiff, the amount being a second
installment of costs. The case was
called last November, but was not
tried as the petition was found to be
faulty. The court today allowed S2o
of the extra expense account sought
by the petitioner. Daniel o. Hastings
represented Brown. Brown IS under
bond to pay his wife $40 month
support money.
The couple we're married on Octo-
Der II. 1895, and lived together until
March %, 1911. Brown, when called

No. 300 West Thirtieth street when
the separation took place. When he
went home from work on that date,
he said, he found the house had been

His wife had gone. Brown said ne

ENTERTAINS AMID
FRAGRANT bowers
Classical Dances in Open
Air Theatre for Pierre
S. duPont'S Guests
EIGHT HUNDRED AT
HIS GARDEN PARTY

Pierre S. DUPONT entertained about
500 guests at his annual garden party
at his country estate, Longwood, near
Kennett Square. on Saturday after
noon and evening with that charm
and hospitality that always prevails
when Mr.. DUPONT is host. His garden
party not only is an annual fixture
to which society looks forward with
the keenest pleasure but il also is the
most noteworthy event in social cir
cles during the pre-vacation days.
Novelty was predominant in the en-
tertainment, classical dancers with
flowing draperies fitting in an OPEN
air theatre, with fountains spouting
nearby and fragrant flowers as sur
roundings.
Practically all the guests went in
automobiles to LongwoOd, and there
was a constant procession of motor
cars along the Kennett turnpike dur
ing the afternoon and evening. Many
of the guests came from Philadelphia
and its fashionable suburbs.
Opon their arrival the guests were re-
ceived by Mr.. DUPONT, who was assisted
IN receiving by his two sisters. Mrs.
Charles Copeland and Mrs William
Windor Laird. After greeting their host
and hostesses, many of the guests
passed from the shady lawn to the
flower gardens Others wandered about
the great pool in the formal garden and
watched in apparent fascination the
fountains of sparkling water, while still
others disappeared in the direction of
the famous green ride that stretches out
in back of the house.
No place for miles around is more
beautifully fitted to entertain than
Longwood. The house itself. which is
partly old and partly new. is ideally ap-
pointed and through the entire place
pervades a charm that is impressive.
The house is shaped like huge So
without the middle arm, in place of
which there is a conservatory or court
with a roof of glass. A center of grass
with flower borders from which two
paved paths lead into the two wings OF
the house make of il most attractive
spot. The stairs and woodwork within
the house are of fragrant unstained
teak wood One of the most interesting
features is the magnificent old library
which takes up one entire end of the
house Hugh fireplaces and a profusion
Of comfortable chairs and couches add
much 20 the cosiness of this part Of the
house.
Never did Longwood present more
picturesque scene than 1t did on Satus-
dav AFTERNOON with the hundreds Of
daintily gowned women amid the gar

French Retire after
SOUCHEZ MILL ATTACK
By The United Press.

By The United Press.
PARIS, June 14.-The Germans
have begun new attack on Souchez
They are hurling large quantities Of
high explosive shells against the
French trenches and the walls of the
old sugar refinery. An official state
ment this afternoon admitted that the
bombardment wrecked part of the
French trenches north of the mill
and forced French troops to retire.
This reverse, however, was offset
by French victory on the eastern
ridge of the Lorette Hills. The
French shelled and then occupied a
portion of German trenches in a clash
of infantry forces.
The Belgians have resumed the Of
fensive near Dixmude. In a night at
tack a Belgian battalion crossed to
the east bank of the User. south of
the railway leading to Dixmude, and
took up strongly fortified positions.
They drove back German troops in
the direction of Dixmude.
