CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES
Cardinals to Battle Eagles While the
! White Sox Take on Clarendon

Cardinals battle the Eagles VINO
are leading in the club standing 10,
the series for the amateur DSSeo"ii
championship of northern virginla ,
tomorrow at the Cardinal diamond
at the head of King street. The game ne
is scheduled to take place DIV z''o
o'clock in the afternoon and the larg-
est crowd of fans who ever attehoea
baseball game in this city is ex-
pected to be present to witness tne
frav. which will be a fight to the finish
between these ewo clubs.
Sweeney viii in all probability DO d!
a. +,yirlmg honors for the Cardl-
n.ls while it is likely that the Eagles
! viii send Lefty" White to the mound
Roth these pitchers are in fine fettle
now, but still it is hardly likely that
the game will be of scant hit Variety
for both teams have sluggers prlm-
ed for the contest. who are anxious
to send runs across the plate. To-
morrow's game holds forth lot OF
interest.
While the Eagles and Cardinals. are
battling in the western section OF the
city, down in the extreme south
eastern part of the Cove grounds, a
lively fray is slated between the
Alexandria County Athletic, Asso-
citation nine and the White. Sox. The
latter to date have lost the two games
they have played in the title series
but nevertheless have made up their
minds to capture this game if the
spirit with which they will enter the
contest can avail them Of victory.
Clarendon is as equally determined
to go back to their home town with
a victory to their credit, so this game
will be about as interesting as the
one on King street, although the fans
will possibly turn out in large num-
bers to see the Eagles, series leaders
play.
Mondays Gazette will give interest
ing accounts of both games. Watch
for the dope on the series.

Hate to Look At.

CHARLESTON, Oct. 2l.-Times fly
and recolleCtions become dim. but
official actions. once recorded seldom
become obliteratod either from the
record books or the public mind.
Way back in 1897, on November 16,
to be exact, when @. w. Atkinson was
governor. L. NJ. LaFollettee auditor,
j. r. Trotter superintendent Of schools,
and Edgar p Rucker attorney general,
u. A. Kendall, as state treasurer and
as such a member Of the West Vir-
ginia board of public works, made an
official report to that boarG.
That report was made by official re-
quest, and covered the financial con-
dition Of William f. Chiffon, now
United States senator. who had just
retired as secretary OF state, but whose
conduct Of the Office Of secretary Of
state was reputed to have been such
that an investigation was asked for
and made, Treasurer Kendall having
been delegated to make 1t.
II find" says Mr.. Kendall in closing
the fourth paragraph OF his report,
and referring to William +. Chiffon,
the retired secretary Of state, that
his total shortage to date Is S17,5S0.
on license tax on charters"
Part of that total was obtained by
the investigation having disclosed that
Mr. Chilton's report was made on do
nestle charters for which he charged
himself $40, wehere in the charters
were issued to foreign corporations
which had paid $50 to the secretary Of
state.
when ! undertook to investigate
the accounts for the sale Of books and
the tax on state seal, found con-
dition OF things which was very re-
markable indeed" further says Mr..
Kendall's report. "HeA is an import
ant branch of business which involves
thousands OF dollars during term in
the secretary OF states office, but
found no record of 1t whatever. II he
ever kept any he must have carried II
away with him. The statute prescribed
that the secretary Of state shall make
detailed report OF these matters twice
year-in January and July, and GER
tify 1t to the auditor. and assesses a
heavy fine for failure to do so.
But find that during his entire
term Mr.. Chiffon made but one report
to the auditor and ! do not consider
tnat report within the meaning OF the
statute, for he simply makes q bald
statement Of the amount received"
Mr.. Kendall reported that he had
no means Of verifying reports made
after Mr.. Chilton's retirement from
ofice but says Il have made a com
parison between the business in these
lines during his administration and
the same as reported for the first eight
months Of the present administration
and find that the average per month
DUNG Mr.. Chiltons administration for
tax on seals as reported is $64.54. The
average per month from this same
source as reported by Mr.. Dawson is
$11S.S7. The average per month dur
ing Mr.. Chilton's administration for
the sale Of books as reported is $14s.1I.
The average per month from the same
source as reported by Mr.. Dawson is
$29S.s5.
