CARL MORRIS MAY

Pittsburgher's Victory Over
Cowler Removes Last of
New Crop Of Hopes.

Boosted a few months ago as n
semifinal to match with Jess Will
lard for the heavyweight champions
ship a Carl Morris Frank Moran
night finally has come to he really
thar thing At that time two other
hcaVywcights were considered better
prospects for the heavy crown than
either Morris or Moran. These were
Fred Fulton and Tom Cowler. A few
nights ago Morris won clean cut
victory over the former and Friday
night Moran put Cowler To sleep in
-four rounds
These two heavies now undoubtedly
are the two best In the challenging
class, and practically every dollar Of
oklahoma money Will go down on
Morris If the two are matched
In answer to question OF whether
Morris could be considered good
match for willard I'm Brown. the
New York fistic authority who ref
creed the Morris-Fulton fight, has an
sWcrcd.
"Ile certainly would. Morris is a
mighty strong, big man. He's big
enough to fight willard, and he can
get into good shape for an important
fight like that. He was thin for Full
ton. down around 220 pounds He
trained hard because he wanted TO
beat Fulton to get at willard and he
showed that in shape he's danger
ous man.
Morris strength amazed me. lie
handled Fulton like welterweight.
Fulton was helpless in his hands.

Special to The World.
FORT SMITH, Ark, April 14-Pa-
ience typical of that of the American
people under the aggravations of the
kaiser was that exhibited today by
the Tulsa Producers in the face of
umpratical decisions which went n
long way toward bringing about the
third consecutive defeat of Wooley's
men by the Twins. The score was
to ..
1t is hard to estimate the exact
damage in runs done the invaders by
decisions of Umpire llealy today. IL
was great, and even the home fans
shared in the opinion of the Tulsa
players that the arbiter erred griev-
ously on more than one occasion.
How Damage Was Done.
The first came in the second inning.
Jeffries was declared out at the plate
on Olson's attempted squeeze, de-
cision that brought n storm Of pro-
test. In the very next inning lieaty
drove a long one down the right foul
line good for three bases with Brady

mark but Healy called it foul asd
Heatly famed. In the ninth Olson
cic2e one to the same territory that
TO many looked fair and which would
have counted Mcknight and landed
Olson on third, but again ii was de-
clared foul and Olson whitfield.
Richardson FoOzlcs Again.
Except for this and another eXhibl-
ton of neffectiveness by Richardson,
the Tulsans had good day. Evi-
IDENTIFY thinking the big lad could re-
deem himself for his bad showing OF
yesterday, Manager Woolcy permit
ted Richardson to go back on the
mound again. Before he was con-
vinced that Richardson could not find
the plate nor BATTLE the locals, the
Twins had scored six runs. Bern
brock who relieved him pitched a nice
game.
How Runs We're Made.
Robson elevated the bail over the
boards in the third and seventh with
Gardner on both times. A bunch of
errors, walks and two hit batters re
suited in three runs being scored off
Richardson in the sixth. Gardner
walked, Williams famed and Robson
got hit. Richardson threw wild on
Barrs grounder Gardner and Will
liams scoring and Barr going to third
tarphagcn got hit and Nevitts drive
scored Barr. In the first Boyd walked
reached third on Jeffries wild peg to

scored on Robison's sacrifice fly

NICARAGUA NDORSESU.S.
COURSE IN ENTERING WAR
Sends Message of Sympathy, But Is
Silent on Neutrality-Not to
Aid Gonzales.

Nicaragua has aligned herself with
the Latin American nations indorsing
the entry of the United States in the
war with Germany. The foreign ofiice
at Managua notified the State Depart
ment today that the government there
sympathizes with the United States in
its action. but made no mention of neu-
trality.
Reports of anti-German riots. in Ar
gentine. wholesale dismissal Of nation
ais of the central powers from .governl
ment workshops and arsenals and the
order to German residents to ssyacuate
certain suburban zone OF Buefi6s Aires,
are construed here as indicative Of the
diff1culty the Argentine government will
have in preventing itself being forced
by it's own people into an open break
with Germany.
Denial was made at the state De-
partment that the United States, in
concert with any nation. was pressing
Peru to define more clearly its attitude.
The policy is not to press any govern
ment into any course.
It also was denied that any assist
ance would be given by the United
States to the deposed President Of Costa

for the recovery of power in that
country. 1t was pointed out that the
new president. Federico Tinoco, might

milton always was largely question

.TEN-H0UR DAY OPPOSED
BY OFFICIALS OF U. S.
Chiefs Agree Overtime Work Would
Not Make for Efficiency in
Handling War Rush.

"a straight ten-hour working day for
AL government employees would defeat
its purpose" declared Ethelbert Stew
art, chief statistician of the bureau of
labor statistics. discussing today the
possibility of such a step on account
of the rush Of war work
Possibilities of the ten-hour day, to-
gether with the suspension of Saturday
half holidays this summer, were dis
cussed throughout the departments,
and the eoncensus was summed up In
the statement by Mr.. Stewart
The whole experience of England. in
its mobilization or labor. shows con-
clusively. the chief statistician pointed
out, that overtime work in departments
where the clerks are already rushed
to death" would result in decreased
efficiency and a lowered grade of work
on the part of those subject to such
increased hours.
Every man and woman in the gov
ernment SERVICE" Mr.. Stewart said. sis
willing to give all there is in them to
help win this war. But actual physical
experience. not theoretical figuring, must
measure the amount Of energy that peo-
pie can expend."
The statisticion's view was upheld by
a high official in another branch Of the
government. man who has been in the
federal service for more than a score of
years.
The two fatigue hours between 4 and
o'clock" this official declared, "are alb
solutely unproductive"
Neither the ten-hour day nor suspen-
sion of half holidays this summer would
In the long run help the rush of war

GERMANS WATCH 20 MEN
DROWN AS SHIP SINKS

LONDON. April 19.-The torpedoing
of an unnamed Scandinavian steamship
with the loss of all on board except
Capt Karstein Olsen. is reported in a
Reuter- dispatch from Christiania. The
captain says the submarine rose to the
surface after the torpedo had been fired
and watched twenty-nine persons
drown without offering assistance.
The Norwegian press comments Bit
terly on this incident. The Shipping
Gazette says the present situation of
Norway is worse than il she were at
war. 1t adds that the United States
should have the most cordial co-opera-
tion Of all the Scandinavian countries
in the effort to shut off Germany from
exports. even from neutral countries.
"All neutrals ought voluntarily to
break of commercial relations with
Germany" it says.
