The maj could be seen by all of the spectatort and there was no complaint from anJ source relative to poor view. The failure of several of the wrestlera to arrive caused Promoter Nespor to placc local Greek amateur with Lewis, wht won with ease. The Draak-Leon matcf

Address Plea for Ballot to 50 Senators and Congress men Gathered in ROtunda of the Capitol

Washington, May 16.-Envoys of the Congressional Union for Woman Suf-
 frage brought their 1o,0o0-mile 3S-day tour
 of the country to climax tonight With final plea to about 50 representatives
 and senators gathered in the rotunda of
 the capitol for passage of the Susan
 B. Anthony suffrage amendment at this session of Congress dozen suffraSists, including several representatives of states
 in which women are enfranchised, urged
 their cause and hinted broadly that this
 would be good year for both democrats
 and republicans to get on the suffrage
 band wagon. As many spectators as could crowd into the rotunda listened to the speeches and hundreds stood in the plaza outside to applaud the suffragists, who marched on the capitol in a body to the air Of "The Marseillaise."
 Four hours previously the Suffrage spe- ciap' rolled into the gayly decorated rail- way station to be received by large local delegation of women workers There followed a luncheon at which about 3oc persons were seated and an "experie&re meeting during which most of the en- voys spoke Then the envoys were borne to the east steps of the capitol in motor

The statewide organization meeting held at the auditorium of the Chamber of Commerce last evening was well att tended by enthusiastic insurance men from all over the state The meeting was addressed by Mark T. Mckee, secretary of the National Council of Insurance Fed erstions, and as usual he drove home in forceful and convincing manner the importance of utilization among all insur- ance men, regardless of individual lines or interests
 United effort and cooperation seemed to pervade the meeting. MT. Mckee also advised that at meeting of the Alabama Underwriters association, which he at tended in the forenoon, resolutions were adopted by that association to affiliate with and to become members of the h. surance Federation of Alabama. This resolution goes so far as make a mem- bership in the association a compulsory membership in the federation, showing in this act spirit of harmonious co-opera- ton. This resolution of the association suggests that other associations of the state do likewise.

scouts have filled a place that no other organization could fill, and they have done their part nobly.
 q have noticed particularly that when ever a scout is needed there is no neces- sity to go out and look one up. A scout is always at hand, and they always are within calling distance. And the man. ner in which they have acted as guides for veterans, carried baggage, and de- livered messages has made the work of the several committees several degrees lighter, and has made the stay of the veterans in Birmingham much more pleas ant than it otherwise would have been.
 '"Too much cannot be said in praise of the scouts, and I am of the opinion that a dinner especially for the scouts would in a small measure express our apprecia- ton to them. Let's get it up"

cars for triumphal march into the building.
 The steps were crowded with suffra gists garbed in white dresses and the purple, gold and white sashes of the organization and carrying flags of the same color.
 Five little girls preceded the envoys strewing flowers in their path, and at the top of the steps holding aloft huge congressional union banner was Mrs Belva Lockwood, who is S6 years old, and who says she has been a suffras1st ever since she was 16.
 The senators and representatives had no chance to leave once they had gath cred As they faced the envoys they were encircled by a ring of rope held by 100 women workers and beyond that was a second ring of yellow ribbon supported by young girls.
 Mrs Rogers declared that throughout the country was a demand that the An thony amendment be passed. Mrs. Eliza beth Gerberdine and Mrs. Wallace Will Hams of Washington, Mrs. Frances Haire of Montana and Miss Alice Reynolds Of Utah spoke along the same line, and then Mrs Florence Bayard Hilles of Della ware and Miss Anna Martin of Montana told the congressman that their aid was expected. It is most necessary you demo- crats remain in power, Miss Hilles said, but it also iS most necessary that you recognize that the paramount issue fac ing you is the enfranchisement of women. AS democrat I appeal not only to demo- crats, but every man who stands for a republican form of government
 Miss Martin said the suffragists hoped to be friendly and that they would not have to oppose any political party An iced cake weighing 150 pounds was brought back from the west by the en- VOWS as a gift for President Wilson.

CHICAGO, July 15.-Dodge, owned by Weber and Ward and ridden by r. Murphy, won the American Derby, the $lO0OO race with which thor oughbred horse racing was today re- Nived in Chicago.
 R. J. Mackenzie's Faux Col was second and Franklin, Dodge's stable mate third. Tie time for the mile and d quarter was 2:04&.
 Gambling was prohibited but big force of deputy sheriffs could not stop the mod" system by. which a number of bookmakers did a fairly thriving business in and about the stand. By this system Dodge and Franklin the Weber and Ward entries were made an odds-on favorite, for the derby. Churchill and Faux Col were equal second choices. A fast track, hardened somewhat by it's years of rest and a hot sunshiny day made racing conditions fairly good. A secondary feature of the card was the Hotel sherman handicap at a mile and sixteenth, R. J. Macken- zie won this handily with Leo Skolny.

TENNIS FANS ARE
 WATCHING MAURICE

NEW YORK, July 15.-Officers of the National Tennis Association and followers of the court game in general are watching with unusual interest in tuning up progress of Maurice F. Me Loughlin in the expectation that the famous California racquet star will make final effort at the coming Ma tional Championships to win outright the singles bowl, enblematic of the title. The Comet already holds two legs upon the trophy and needs but one more victory to clinch possession and add the bowl to his large collec- tion of prizes won in all parts of the world
 The present bowl, a massive silver urn, is the eighth of the series offered by the Y. S. N. l.. T. A and was put into competition in 1911. w A. Larned won it the first year and Me- Loughlin captured it along with the singles championship in 1912 and 1913. The following season he fought his way to the final round only to be de- feated by R. Norris Williams and last year, after playing through the tour nament. he lost to William Johnson As result Larned, who is out of championship play, Williams and Johnston each have one leg on the trophy, while Mclaughlin has two and needs but one more to gain permanent possession.
 From present indications the famous international list will face hard field when he takes the courts at Forest
 Hills. l.. l., next month. In addition to Williams, Johnston and other lead CTS in the tennis ranking there will be i the two Japanese players, Kumange and Mlkami as well as several of the younger experts whc are rapidly ar- preaching the first rank. Much of
 course, will depend upon the position
 secured by Mclaughlin in the draw. Should he be fortunate enough to be placed so that his progress to the
 semi-final round is comparatively easy he can conserve his strength for the | final drive. If, on the other hand | he is forced to meet number of rank | ing players in the preliminary rounds he may reach the finals in the same | weakened psysical condition which was | so apparent a year ago
 1 Johnston also showed the strain oi | his tennis campaign late last fall and | was ordered by his physician to rest | for several months. This spring he i has complained of sorenes in his rae | quet arm but it is expected that he vii | be in perfect condition when he comes
 east to defend his title. R. Norris Will | Hams, the other former champion ha. | played but little tennis to date but i. | understood to be taking a specia
 course of training in order to be fit fol
 the National Championship tourna 1 ment so that it can be seen that Mo
 Loughlin is going to have a decidedl!
 hard task ahead of him in his effor
 to win the singles bowl outright thi
 season, which may be his last il
 championship play.
