 moose national convention in Chicago on August 5, the fourth anniversary of the progressive party'S birth
 X conference of progressive leaders from all parts of the country is scheduled for un eastern city some day this week. The dute and place have not as yet been definitely decided upon. At this preliminary conference an inventory will be taken of the pro- gressive insurgent strength, and plans laid definitely for the proposed con- vention
 There is little likelihood that tho convention will put a third ticket in the field by providing some substitute candidate for president in the place of Colonel Roosevelt. The hat of John M.

The Passing of Youth.

The baseball writer that day wen
 to work with a feeling of heavines: and depression. Apparently some queer change had drifted across his philosophy, for on this day he had the . feeling that he was on old man and that the machinery had about run it's course.
 This was decidedly unusual. For baseball writers. whether they are nineteen or sixty-one, as a rule work ~pn in the morning of life. Their heads may be gray but the spirit of tho game, which knows only the spirit of youth, takes good enough care of their hearts. And the heart is the measure Of time.
 No man could follow baseball year in and year out and ever grow old. Unless, possibly, he had to follow the Mackmen or the Reds or the Browns IS they have been going in the past w Tho baseball writer was beginning to find that his work came harder and harder. He couldn't understand it, 1ecause physically he felt as well as SNCA I1C WStS Sllll uiluGT 1OTJN ana he should apparently have been in his prime with fifteen or twenty years left.
 And then he began to look over his career. He recalled the day he broke into the Big League, just seventeen years ago. He was assigned to the Giants and he had been with them eI CT since. He recalled, too, a certain big blond youngster that had started just about that time. His name was Christy MatheWsOn and the baseball writer remembered predicting at the time that the Giants had landed what looked to be a promising recruit.
 At this point the baseball writer began to recall just how much of his copy through seventeen years that MatheWsOn had taken up. When the big pitcher once got going there was no longer a dreary and daily tale of defeat to relate. There was inspira- tiOn and cheerful copy at last. He re- called how, in 1901 with a bum ball club around him, Matty had won twenty out of thirty-seven games. | These victories helped lot in the l compilation of daily lore. And there | was the campaign of 1903. Pitts burgh that year had a grand ball club 1

effort to have him Withdraw his name as candidate
 May Cast Votes for Wilson.
 Bainbridge Colby, who has been most pronounced in his opposition to the proposal for progressive endorse Elent Of the republican nominee. and who Is looked to by progressive in Surgents in all parts of the country as q probable leader in any concerted acton of nationwide scope that may De decided upon by the anti-Perkins element in the party, has told his friends that he regards a third ticket thls year as utterly impractica bIe, Tn oemocrat1c circles there is a joyful ex- Iecatation that the insurgent progres- slVes may be induced to throw their solid support to President Wilson.
 MT. Colby announced that he was William Fl. Hotchktss and other bull moose leaders in favor of a Hughes endorscment-that they had suffl- clent number of votes to put their program through-was preposterous
 Tho most amusing thing about the Nhote meeting" said Mr. Colby, was
New Britain herald., 1916-07-25

l the manner in which the Perkins vote4 1 flew out Of the window At 8 o'cIoc1 l ilt the morning the Perkins peoplx were arrogant, by noon they becama | civil, at o'clock in the afternoon thct were soIicitous. At 9 o'clock in tl4 evening they called it a day and lied l inc town.
 "The meeting in Syracuse was mol i even good sport. It was like shooting | mackereI in a barrel. Tho wrecker{ of our party in their zeal to showA loyalty to their new party have showrj the speed of renegades and have dis E played such conspicuous aptitude aS disloyaIty to their own party that it would not bo surprising if the ChicagSS conference is not as well attended a4 it should bo"
 Mr Colby announced tthat he wa4 preparing to go to Chicago for thd new bull moose convention, and that prior to that affair the New Yorlj state progressive leaders of the anti Perkins faction would consult with tho insurgent bull moose leaders fron5 other states where the banner of rel volt has been raised against the| Perkins program.
 Wilson Endorsement Possible.
 One progressive leader said that while at first the Chicago conferenceI had been suggested largely for senti- \ mental reasons and with a view of1 giving the party launched amid suchl a burst of patriotic fervor four yearas ago decent burial on the anniversary of it's birth, latter day developmental had wrought a change in the situation2 and vested the prospective bull moosel gathering at Chicago with much more1 importance. This leader held WILL son endorsement by the progressive insurgents when they meet in Chicagob is not at all improbable. and addede that assurances had been received from democratic quarters that pro- gressiVes turning to Wilson would have no reason to regret their action.
 Walter A Johnson, chairman of theE progressive state committee, said thatS he would call a conference of pro-H gressive leaders in this state for somaH day late this week, to determine uponH some future course of action,
 fI would have called it earlier. butE thought it best to give them a chancez to cool off after the Syracuse meetingB before bringing them together" heI said. Chairman Johnson was veryI anxious to have it made clear that he| had nothing to do with the turmoil at| the Syracuse meeting.
 'I think it was the local police de- partment which decided that the pres said MT. Johnson.

FAVORS SIR EDGAR SPEYER
Court of Appeals Decides He Is En- titled to Remain in Privy Council Despite Anti-German League.

London, July 25, 11:45 a. ne.-The court of appeals decided today that there Is no question of the rigbt of Sir Edgar Speyer to remain on the roll of privy council This rulir < upholds the decision of the lower court in his favor Sir Edgar Speyer, partner in the Speyer banking firm of London, New York and Frankfort- On-Main, is d. British citizen of Ger man birth and parentage. At the out break of the war he was the subject of violent attacks in England on ac- count of n3s; German origin His enc mics openly charged him with disIoy- atty, but he was warmly defended by Premier Asquith.
 In May, 1915. Sir Edgar resigned h,s membership in the prfvy council and asked for the revocation of his baronetcy. The College of Arms de- cided that there was no way in whfcn the banker could dfvest himself of his title.

WILLIAMS BEATEN
Former National Champion is Beaten By Sensational Californian ill Straight Sets at LOngHood.

Boston, July 25.-California's $ strong hand in lawn tennis was ap- parent yesterday on the courts of the Longwood Cricket club. R. Nor ris Williams 2d, former national I-champion, was put out of the twenty sixth Longwood singles by Clarence J. Griffin of San Francisco. Tho score was. 7-5. 7-5
 More followers of the game picked i Williams to come through to the new bowl than favored w. M. John ston, the national title holder. Griffin was no better than a third choice The result was a distinct shock to Fasteners.
 Williams exhibition was far from the tennis he plays when at the top of his game. There was little finish to his strokes, despite the fact that he played like star last spring. There was some suggestion of the real Williams in the first set, when he outplayed Griffin about two to one, but against his placements were six teen netted balls as many out and four double faults. That eloquently tells the story of Williams game in that set. To most followers of ten- his the appearance of Williams in the tournament came as a big surprise. Reports had him resting up for the national championships at Glacier National park in Montana. His name appeared among the entries for the new Longwood bowl but few thought that Williams would really play. His game yesterday showed that he had been playing little tennis,

And then came 1905. That year
 Matty won thirty-onc out of forty
 games, and tho Giants were sent
 against the hard hitting Athletics with
 Sox Seybold, Ossie Schrec1, Harry
 Davis, Lave Cross, Topsy Hartsel and
 Cthers who could hit. But the base
 Eall writer had no fear of the result.
 "Matty," he recalls writing at the time, Twill make them look sick" There still remained in his memory those three games that Mattv worked; the fast ball, the fadeway, the perfect control-the final word In perfect pitching.
 TWenty-seven innings through three games and not a run! Twenty-seven innings against a hard hitting club, With nothing like a tally. He could have written ten columns a day about each game Mathewson pitched. There was everything that any pitcher ever had-f1ne speed, perfect control, a spine-breaking curve, brains, cour- age and absolute poise.
 Copy was too easy to write then. The main trouble was in quitting through lack of space.
 And then came the years beyond this. The great campaign of 1908, where Giants, Cubs and Pirates swung into the last day or two on even terms That year Matty won thirty-seven games and saved a dozen others. He recalled the play-off against the Cubs and the misjudged fly that brought defeat to Matty's overworked and |! weary arm And then there were the l flag winning campaigns of 1911, 1912 l and 1913 wherein the Old Master won seventy-five games, still more than holding his own against the field as he made copy easy along the way.
 Tn 1914 and 1915 there were those who said that Matty was slipping. But the baseball writer didn't believe t. It was one Of those things that couldn't be. It was precisely the same -bng as saying that the world was coming to an end.
 So the baseball writer remained | cheerful and bided his time, waiting | for the man he began with sixteen years ago to get started again--weit- Ing for the hero to re-enter the plos.
 Tn the meanwhile there were o[-n ITS , 10 write about. Not Mattys, of course, put fairly good substitutes against the Jay of Matty's return. MatheWsOn through? He was willing to admit that John D. Rockefeller might be sCwn to his last kopeck, but the other was too much of a joke to be con- sidered All he needed was a little time, and then the same old Matty would be back again with about the. same old stuff.
New Britain herald., 1916-07-25

This spring at Marlin the baseball writer had no doubt, of course, that Matty would come back. But he began to watch Big Six warm up and to take note of his progress, not talk ing quite much for granted. And then on the first long trip he watched Matty curb the Cardinals in St. Louis and old the Braves to five scattered hits in Boston. And they said he was through! The baseball writer knew all the time that it couldn't be. and copy came as easy again as it did in the old days. The leading hero had re-entered the dramai The story that started in 1901 was still rich with the lore of the games greatest pitcher! He felt once more that he could write

SUMMER BALL AGAIN.

There are all sorts of rum Ors from various resorts of college baseball players who are taking chances in tho way of playing summer ball. If this is true it is evidence of the strong hold which the practice has upon our college stars, a hold which causes them to indulge in the game in spite of the bitter experience of players at Yale and Princeton and other seats of learning last year.

DETROIT SEEKS CATCHER.

Macon, Ga, July 25.-Catcher Jack one of the best backstops that have ever donned the mitt and mask in the Sally. The Macon club has re- ceived several offers to sell him; in fact, President Jacobs turned down $3,0O0 for him from the Detroit club recently. The Athletics and both St. Louis clubs are among the other big league teams after him.

MOOSE MAY ENDORSE
 WILSON AT CHICAGO
Make Preparations for Another Convention on Party'S Birthday

New York, July 25.-With the progressive state organization shat tered as a result of developments at the stormy meeting of the state com mittee in Syracuse last Saturday, the bull moose leaders now are trying to save the pieces. Everything indicates that from now on the two progressive factions will travel along different routes.

"a pennant winning machine, with Wagner at his best-a ball club good enough to romp in with the pennant.
 Yet Matty that year beat the pirates seven times out of seven starts, rolling them back with ease. Those were all great games to write. He was doing much better work be- cause Mathewsons success was mak- ing his copy easy and was giving him a big feature to handle about twice a week. Matty that year won thirty games and lost but thirteen. That meant at least thirty stories and he took pleasure in giving his paper.
 And the next year, 1904, Matty won thirty-three games and lost only twelve, and by his great pitching gave the Giants thoir first pennant in over d decade. That was the year the baseball writer fairly reve1led in his copy, because he always had a hero to lead the drama who was more than making good.

10, 900 words a game whenever the biz pitcher took the mound

And then the baseball writer ran into this story-a story that he knew to be true under this headline "Matty's Pitching Days Over; Will Leave Giants to Manage Reds"
 And about that time the baseball writer began to feel old and worn out and of not much further use. He felt as if he had put on twenty years in a Waak. He tried to figure it all out, but he couldn't understand it. He only knew that for some unknown reason Youth had left him with his face buried in is hands, faded, weary and uninspired.

buying of July, October and December was

there seemed 10 be little demand and the
tone was unsettled with the market conn
paratively narrow during the middle OF the
morning.
Reports of unseasonably low temperatures
