Mr.. Editor: The poor condition of
the baseball diamond OF Michigan park
prompts me to write this short article
in regard to it. The diamond for the
past two years has not been taken
care Of and IL has been and is being
used every Saturday and Sunday by
the smaller in town teams. Sundays
it is used by the City league teams.
The backstop has been battered al
most to pieces and the wire netting is
full Of large holes. The grass in the
infield is at present eight inches high
and the infield Is also full of small
stones. the size OF mans fist. Be-
tween second and third bases there ID
a hole at least three feet in diameter
Can't there be something done TO put
the diamond back in its former con-
dillon?

HERO'S FUNERAL
FOR c. GOMPERS
Sailor Killed by Haytian Sniper
Gets Last Honors at Navy
Yard.

Charles Columbus Gompers, the
young sailor who was killed by a
sniper's bullet when Rear Admiral
Caperton's forces landed at Hayti two
weeks ago, was buried from the navy
yard yesterday. Burial was in Cypress
Hills Cemetery, Brooklyn, after full
naval honors were paid the body at
the naval hospital. Samuel Gompers,
the young mans uncle, attended the
funeral
The young mems parents wished that
the funeral be held at the navy yard.
A guard of sixteen tars in white suits
was detailed by Rear Admiral Nathaniel
K. Usher, the commandant, 10 give their
comrade the last honors of the navy.
Most of the sailors in the guard were
from the electrical class.
Several hundred spectators stood
with barred heads at 2:15 p. m. as
Gompersis body, lying in a coffin
draped with a large American flag, was
carried out of the reception room in
the hospital. Sailors and patients in
the institution stood at attention.
Three volleys were fired over the cOf-
fin, and before the echo had died away
a bugler stepped forward and sounded
taps.
Eight Of the guard with rifles took
their places ahead of the cstafalque
and marched to the Flushing Avenue
gate, where they stood at attention
while the funeral procession passed on
TO Cypress Hills.
President Wilson, in q letter of con-
dolence 10 Mrs. Gompers, wrote that he
had requested Secretary Daniels to
make an investigation to see whether
she is entitled to indemnity from the
Haytian government for the death of
her son. She was dependent upon his
wages for her support.

CONDEMNED. MEAT SOLD
Cargo Sent to Charleston Not
Seized, Says Jury Chairman.

Charles r. Brown. chairman of the
Federal grand jury committee, which
sent an open letter to President Will
son demanding shske-up in { he
steamboat and meat inspection SER
vices, denied yesterday that a cargo of
rotten meat had been seized by Fed
eral inspectors In Charleston, s. c.,
after being condemned in New York.
The meat, reeking with maggots,"
said Mr.. Brown. was shipped from
New York after being condemned by
Federal inspectors here. In Charles
ton the consignee retailed it TO
butchers. They sold part of it to
white customers, and what was too
rotten for these they sold TO negroes.
These facts were brought out by sworn
testimony before the grand jury.
AT that time the jury recommend
ed that packers be prohibited from
manufacturing inspection stamps. The
public would like TO know why the
recommendations Of the jury were not
carried out, especially as it has been
said that an additional appropriation
Of $4,000 for the Department OF
Agriculture has been obtained this
year"

WIFE IMPOVERISHED
BY HUSBAND HUNT
Two Drug Stores Sold and the
Proceeds Used for Nation
Wide Search.

Eight months of unceasing effort to
find her husband, Ernest n. TONES,
who was prosperous Harlem druggist
when he disappeared, has left his wife,
Mrs Ida NJ. Tonnes, penniless.
When TONES disappeared he lived
at Kelvin Hall, $50 West 180th Street.
On Christmas Eve Mrs. TONES re-
ceived a postcard from him stamped
Charleston, s. c. 1t told her to take
care Of their boy, that he intended to
commit suicide, advising his wife TO
collect his life insurance.
Mrs. TONES had circulars printed
with the description of her husband
that she sent to every postmaster and
chief of police in the country. This
was a heavy drain on her finances.
Finally it became necessary for her to
sell her two drugstores. The proceeds
have gone, and now Mrs. TONES and
her son are without any means, and
the head of the family has not been
found.
But the loyal wife has not given up
hope, nor has she quit her efforts to
find her husband. 1t is her theory that
her husband suffered an attack OF
aphasia, and for some reason she be-
lieves that he has been going under
the name of E. H. Taylor or 4. II.
Jones. Tonnes is thirty-four years old,
six feet tall, weighs about 1853 pounds,
has dark brown hair and a small scar
near the left eye.

rondon. Aug. 15.-Much interest
attaches here TO an Amsterdam
telegram containing a Berlin report
that the German government is anx-
;ors 10 make peace. Private news
t-om American visitors TO Germany
confirms these reports and produces
tbs impression that the war may

Yearly complete with New York for

steady American exchange for con-
siderable time. Fortunately our
cold supply is rapidly growing, and
further exports appear TO be quite
feasible in the near future should
they be required.
The weakness Of French francs
ard Italian lire is undoubtedly due
% the large volume of imports from
America and TO the lack Of gold to
EXPORT. as military conditions neces-
sarily reduce the exportable surplus.
Germany's growing debt and re-
dundant paper currency recently
have had little effect on her ex-
changes. because she is unable to
import freely and therefore is COM
pelled 10 do without foreign lux
uries. comforts, and probably even
some necessities. At present, in
site Of the mobilization of her labor
on the battle lines, one can find
enough exports of coal, dye, chemi-
Gals etc. TO pay for her small vol
ume Of imports.
There is some talk of a rise in the
