Leonard Gets Revenge

Boston, August 3O.--"Dutch' Leon
ard, who WINS knocked out of the box
by st. Louis in the first game of yes
terday's double header, came back to-
day and held the Browns without a
hit or run, while Boston scored four
runs off Weilman. Two men reached
first base, but neither got to second.
In the eighth inning Leonard passed
Severeid and again in the ninth he
gave base on balls to Hartley, who
batted for WeiIman.
Leonard struck out only three men,
for the most part forcing the batters
to pop up easy flies, and the whole
team, smartfng from yesterdays dou-
BILE defeat, backed up their star left
handler faultlessly all through.
Today's no-hit, no-run game was the
second to the credit of the Red SOx
this season. George Foster turned the
trick against New York last June and
sporting writer's directed attention to
the fact that in both games Manager
Carrigan was behind the bat.
An examination of Captain Barry's hand
today disclosed that a bone on the back
of his right hand was fractured and that
he would be out of the game probably
four weeks. Score: R.H. e.

To Develop Graphite Fields

Montgomery, August 30.-(SpeciaD
Due, it is believed, to the enormous adj
vance in the price of graphite resulting
from the war, the graphite mining in
dustry of Clay county has been given a
sudden impetus. Two large foreign cor
porations today notified the state auditor
that they will develop graphite fields in
that section of Alabama. Since the out
break of the war, graphite has advanced
from cents to II cents a pound, it is
claimed, and this is supposed to be the
cause of the activity in the graphite re-
gion. Clay county is said to have more
graphite stored up in its soil than the
remainder of the United States combined.

LEGISLATION FOR
PREVENTING CRISIS
BEING PREPARED
CONTINUED from page One,

w. G. Lee. head of the trainmen, said
tonight that Its enactment with a
guarantee Of the present rate of daily
pay would be regarded by the brother
hood leaders as a Satisfactory settle
ment." Immediately upon its becoming
law, he said, the brotherhood leaders
would send out the code message noti-
Tying general chairmen that the strike
order should not go into effect.
Even some of the congressional lead
ers who oppose other features of the
programme say such a law could be
passed.
SIDETRACKS REVENUE
The Senate virtually sidetracked the
debate on the crisis, while the inter-
state commerce committee arranged
Tor hearings beginning at 9 o'clock to-
morrow morning when representatives
of both sides will be heard Three
hours will be given to each side and
then the committee will begin drafting
legislation into shape for presenta-
ton to the Senate Saturday
One dominant thought in the minds
of members of Congress generally re-
suited in the Introduction late in the
day of resolution by Senator Blair
Lee of Maryland calling upon officials
of the railroad brotherhoods to post
pone execution of the strike order for
one week to give Congress sufficient
time for intelligent consideration of
legislation suggested in President Will
sons message. The resolution was re-
ferred to the interstate commerce COM
mittee without discussion.
SENTIMENT IN SENATE
Opinion in the Senate after the gen.
eral debate concentrated on the urgent
necessity for emergency action first,
proposals for permanent legislation to
be considered thoroughly after dan
ger of an immediate tie-up had been
passed. This sentiment was forcibly
expressed on the floor and echoed in
conferences of House leaders.
The interstate commerce committee
discussed the proposed legislation late
in the day but postponed action until
after tomorrows hearings. In the
meantime word came from the House
side that Representative Adamson,
chairman of the commerce committee,
and Majority Leader Kitchin had con-
cluded that the eight-hour day law
could be passed through the House.
