Broken glass is said to be respon-
lsible for fully so per cent OF the IN
juriss inflicted in automobile and car
accidents. While only per cent OF
the wounds from broken glass are
fatal. 10 per cent cause serious 1nua
tilation, and over 35 per cent leave
indelible scars.
q new process applied to glass will
practically abolish all danger from
this source. It consists Of separating
two sheets or ordinary glass by q thin,
sheet of transparent cellu1oid. Fhe
three sheets are firmly joined by.
chemical agents and heavy pres
sure. The product is known as triplex
glass.
Experiments demonstrate that
when ordinary glass would break IN
and fly in every direction, tripleS
glass simply shows a network OF fine
cracks running in every direction In

more than fifty MEN were brought out
alive from what seemed their tombsis

These qualities shone within the mine

 WASHINGTON. Sept. 11-senator Willard saulsbury. of Delaware, a member of the Senate Committee of Foreign Relations, today declared. on his return from a trip through the far east, that war between the Unit ed States and Japan can come only as the result of political crime" and that in his opinion "all this talk of Japanese peril is the veriest hum bug"

Arena Was Historic One
 The ring in which Mike Gibbons and Packey Mcfarland met week ago Saturday night is one that has been the scene of many famous con- tests. No less than six champions have fought in 1t, not to mention the scores of boxers just outside the tit- ular pale. The ring formerly was the property of the National Sporting club which promoted many of the biggest bouts staged in New York a decade ago. When that organization went out of business the ring was bought by Billy Elmore, who staged many an important contest in it, until the no- torious Billy Papke-Sailor Burke f- asco compelled him to leave town.
 When Harry Pollok came into pos session he turned it over to William C. ('You're on'D Marshall. promoter of the McFarland-Gibbon contest.
 It was in this ring that Joe Cans the "old master.' fought his last fight with Jabez White. Che Englishman. in March. 1909 Abe Attell. then fea- therweight champion of the world. and Jem Driscoll. the crack English boxer. considered by many experts the cleverest boxer that ever laced O glove. fought their memorable con- test in this ring. Stanley Ketchen fought in it several times, one of the bouts being with Philadelphia Jack" O'Brien. Frank Klaus also battled in 1t, and so did Ad. Wolgast who then was in possession of the worlds lightweight championship.
 Some Of the biggest matches stag ed in New York after the repeal of the old Horton law were in this ring. It provided a fitting setting for the McFarland-Gibbons bout, the most im- portant match that could be arranged among presentday boxers.

Who Won tho Scrap?

Who won the McFarland-Gib fight? All the experts of the Ameri- can press within a couple of thou sand miles Of Chicago were on the spot. Half of them gave Packy the verdict and they can start a real old argument any time they want with the other half, who cannot be con- vinced that anybody but Mike had O look-in on the verdict. The A. P. rep- resentatiye says "Packey's old-time cleverness was lacking. while Gib- bons outboxed him at all stages"
 Ed. Smith of Chicago, whose abil- ity to analyze affairs pugilistic is be- yond question, says Mike was @ lem on and developed into the worst irost as a boxer that O star possibly could" Mcfarland outpointed him without trouble" says Smith. land was entitled to the verdict. not alone on the fact that he outscored Mike with ease. but also on the basis of doing about eight-tenths of the fore ing from bell to bell"
 The thousands who saw the contest, and the boxers themselves can not name the winner. As the New York boxing law forblds the giving of de- cisions at boxing bouts. Referee Billy Ioh did not go into the customary proceeding of raising the hand of the victor and as a result the winner is as much in doubt today as before the fight. and the many wagers on the bout are still the subject of discus sion.
 The concensus of opinion among the sport writers gives Mcfarland a slight lead, although the majority Of the newspapers. as well as the refer. ee thought the contest was a draw. The Tribune" and the Associated Press picked Gibbons as the victor; the "Sun," Press" Herald" and the World" thought Mcfarland had the best of 1t. while the American" the Times" Telegraph" Evening Sun" and Telegram" decided that the con- est was draw. As Referee Billy Ioh afterward stated that he would have called the 30 a draw had de- cision been given. the contest will probably go down in history as a draw

 For years the Philadelphia Nation al League team played ball in the Quaker City without any one paying much attention to them. The Athlet- ics drew all the patronage. The Phil lies, being consistently losing team, were much in the discard.
 But this year the story is differ ent Since Connie Mack disposed Of most of his best players the Athlet- ics have hit the toboggan and hit it hard but the Phillies-Oh, my, see how those boys are going
 The famous Red" Dooin was nev- CT able to bring the Phillies into the lead; it remained for Pat Moran to show the Quaker City fans that a team could be built up of raw mater ial. Moran took charge of the team this year under discouraging condi- tlons.
 Sherwood Magee had gone to the Braves. Otto Knabe had jumped to the Federals, and several of the oth- CT best players had left Not prom ising outlook
 However. Grover Alexander con- sidered to be the best pitcher in the National League. stuck with the team. Cravath developed an amazing amount of speed as the season wore on, and then Fred Luders came to the front with his mighty bat and the Phillies began to climb
 But back of the ball playing ability of the members of the team is the strategy of Pat Moran. who has coach ed his men with a rare baseball know ledge. Much honor is due him for the showing of the Phillies today.
