demolished two railroad stations,
wrccking two hotels, two storage
warehouses containing large quantities
of broom corn and wool, and several
minor business houses.
Efforts to estimate the damage in
Coles county tonight were futile be-
cause OF the difficulty of communi-
cation. 1t was not believed the loss
Of life in the country districts was
heavy. Farmers asserted that much
damage had been done to growing
crops.
Late today wire communication was
established over the long distance tele-
phone with st. Louis and several
southern Indiana cities. The office
was swamped with calls from persons
seeking TO rcassure relatives.
Scenes in Charleston were similar ia
those in other parts of the state, the
leafy ruins of majestic trees, torn from
their moorage. forming in the resi-

over the ugly wreckage beneath. To

CHANGES LIKELY Y
in RULES FOR
WORLDS SERIES

New York, Jan. Proposed revi-
sion Of conditions governing the
worlds series will be discussed by
the members Of the National Baseball
commission when that body holds its
annual meeting in Cincinnati today.
Other important matters, including
requests from the minor leagues for
the elimination Of the draft, re-
quests from Players Fraternity and
the resolution asking for the forma-
ton OF board Of control to act upon
minor league cases. will come up for
action and officers for the ensuing
year will be elected, but the worlds
series subject is of more interest to
the baseball public.
1t is understood that several sug-
gestionsl will be made for changing
the present conditions. Ban Johnson,
president of the American League,
will represent his organization in fa-
vor of reducing the price for the
series, while President Tener Of the
National league will present a plan
to divide the receipts in such way
that seven Of the e1gnt clubs, In each
league will receive a share of tho
money. WI
Another suggestion will be made to
increase the series to nine games, in
stead of seven with a division of the.
money going to the first division
clubs. Whichever of the suggestions
is adopted, if there is a change, there
is sure to be lot of discussion over
the matter.
