In the trial heats yesterday in the Winged Foot tank he was beat en by both Herbert Nollmer and Joe Wheatley, the latter finishing first and second respectively.

 Club and Clemcnce Brown of the Hamilton Club, Chicago.
 The Duke took his defeat calmly yesterday. He explained that he left his home in the best of condition. The hurry and hustle since he has ar rived in the States has proven tCo much and his defeat followed. Voll- mer set fast pace at the start Kahanamoku followed almost at his side for the first hundred yards with Wheatley a close third. It was not until the last fifty yards that the finish Wheatley started a great spurt, which put him in second position. Vollmer won by twelve feet ::l ? minutes 30 1-5 seconds.

Boston, April 1O-Tris Speaker, the famous center fielder of the Bos- ton American league team, whose sale to the Cleveland club was an- nounced Saturday that last night that it was not yet certainty that he would go to the Western team. Speaker came here yesterday from New York to have a talk with President Lannin of the Red Sox about the deal.
 There is no need of my stating that this deal was a complete sur prise to me- said Speaker. Tt near ly took me off my feet. As I under stood it, MT. Lannin and I had prac- tically agreed upon terms.
 After talking with him on Friday ally fixed up and that there was no longer anything between me and my continuance as a member of the Red SoX save the signing of a contract, 1 realize the difference now.
 'I shall see MT. Lannin tomorrow l have not signed any contract witn the Cleveland club yet, although I believe that as far as I am concerned the Boston club no longer has mc on it's list. Whether I shall, go to Cleveland remains to be seen. As I said, everything depends upon my interview with MT. Lannin"

The Welsh Controversy.

Sir: Suppose Freddie Welsh de- cides to hold the lightweight cham pionship indefinitely by refusing to meet any good man in a twenty round match-by holding out for terms that no one can meet? There doesn't seem to be any rule of the boxing game to bar such a cOntin- gent, and Welsh has already shown that he isn't going to take any s chances of losing his title for some time. He has been stalling for the greater part of two years now in ten round no-decision bouts-that is, taking no risk whatever. And the humor of it is that many people will still pay to see him in these affairs, drawn by the lure of his title when there are at least two lightweights who could knock him out in twenty rounds-Benny Leonard and Charlie White. RINGSIDE.
 As long as the American box-fght loving public continues to support MT. Welsh in his Take No-Sort- of Chance attitude there isn't very much to be done about it beyond emitting an occasional useless squaWk

The Opening Jubilee. Arise, o Muse, and get in the game; Arise and kick in with a song; Slip us the anthem of acclaim From voices thirty thousand strong; Come, help us hit the metric cup, Responsive to the thrills that wait, As Cobb advances to the plate Where old Ed Plank is warming up Arise, o Muse, as Homer did For bush-league troy and Electors
 fall;
 Come on, tear in and lift the lid From, old Doc Winters barren pail; Come, blow us to virile strain Of three-base hits and double plays, Of Lohnson's speed and Matty's
 brain
 And other well known lesser jays. Sing us, we'll say, a song that rings Like Bakers double over third; The roaring note as Evers swings Through mid-air like a flying bird; The crashing bat, the thudding mitt, The breeding hush before the din, And then-the cadence of the hit As Speaker drives the runner in. Sing us the frenzy of the shout, And then-the hush that follows
 where
 The sacks are full and two are out With Honus Wagner waiting there; The hush that grips, with hands
 clenched tight, White faces and heart beats still And then--a gray streak into right As felders chase the hurtlng pill. Come on, old Top, and swat the Tyre, Smash it across the right field fence, Where those who hear may never tire But say, This stuff is Great,
 Immense!"
 Tear off an anthem for ride Whose medoly is sweet as this Wow! Slide, you bonehead busher,
 s-l-i-d-e!"

The Boston Peril.

A year ago at this date two Boston clubs were picked to lead their cir cults and give the Citadel of Culture an exclusive world series. Then Evers cracked an ankle, James lost a pitching arm, and only one of the two came through.
 Today two Boston clubs are again favored, and this time Stallings has fortified his machine against the set backs that broke it a year ago. But there is this difference-the competi- ton will be far keener and the upward march for any club will be a tougher one.
 Yet with two such clubs it is fairly safe to hint that Boston will at least take part in another world series, even if she doesn't gobble the entire show.
 There are some assignments that are soft, requiring no great per- plexity. The pitcher facing Detroit in a. tough pinch can pass Ty Cobb With nobody but Bob Veach and Sam Crawford left.

so is through plan which will en-
able the farmers who have the best
security in the world TO borrow
money more readily and more cheap
ly than they have done heretofore.
1.-THE rural credits bill, which con-
tains the best of the European sys-
tens. provides for amortization, for
Expenditures. and for organizations
to bring the borrower and lender to-
gether; which can make longtime
loans and receive payment therefor
in annual installments, and which
can issue long time debentures that
will appeal to the investor. The sys-
TEN provided Is under the closest
federal supervision and control.
That is objected to by some, but gov
ernmental supervision and control Is
absolutely necessary to a successful
rural credits system. The financial
assistance given by the federal gov
eminent has been objected to by
some, but this financial assistance is
only temporary.
There is one probable develop
ment of the system which ought to be
of great advantage to bankers. In
Europe there is ready market Mt
all times for the debenture issued by
land banks, and they bring as good
or better prices than government Sc
curitles bearing the same rate of in
terest. There Is every reason why our
debentures should be equally de-
sirable. With the large number OF
banks, insurance companies, trust
companies and private investors
which we have there is no reason
why land bank debentures should not
have an open market where they can
be as readily bought and sold as our
corporate and government securities.
Good loans secured by mortgages on
farm property are always attractive
to local investors even in times OF
stress. and land bank debentures.
