MIDDLETOWN. Del. June IL
Lefty Finn was feeling right pert on
Saturday afternoon so the Artillery
Fuse combination from Wilmington
gave up the game with hardly a
struggle. twenty men marching back
to the bench on strikes. Finn twirled
totally different game from what
ne piched last week. and it was i'm
possible for the game to result any
different than a 6-1 victory for the
stellar southpaw. The Artillery boys
we're lucky to score their one lone
tally
Charley Ellison who played the
hero role last week. made one of the
longest hits ever seen on the local
grounds. lifting the ball over the cen
ter field fence BY a ruling Of the
umpire however the hit was only
good for two bases Had the field
been open Charley would have been
able 10 step around the paths twice.
This was Finn's second victory on
his new winning streak. Score by in

THE GOVERNOR As a BORROWER

The statement Of II. c. Poe, former
president and director of the Temple
State Bank, with which Governor Fer
guson is connected. and to which he
refers as "my bank" has stirred up
q hornets nest In Texas, and II now
looks as II there is going to be some
thing doing. In fact, under the bank
ing laws OF Texas, the Eagle hardly
sees how action OF some kind can DO

brought into dlsrepute and disgrace.
So serious did Mr.. Poe regard the
condition Of the Temple banks al
fairs, brought about by the exception
ally large and illegal loans made to
the governor, that he resigned all con-
nection with the bank on the day his
statement was given out. The Hous'
ton Post, warm friend of the gov
ernor, takes the matter seriously and
says action should be taken. In an
editorial discussion Of the matter the
Post says:
"The senate would not permit the
statement Of Mr.. II. c. Poe to be made
Of record by publishing 1t in the sen

There are important statements In
the Poe statement which involve the
