MIDDIES WANT
CLOSING GAME
Midshipmen Looking for
Strong College Eleven
for Final Contest.

Annapolis. Nd, Nov. 1s.-There is
every reason to believe that the
football season at the Naval Acad-
emy viii close on November % with
the game between midshipmen and
the Great Lakes Naval Training Sta
ton.
A game with a good service team
could probably have been secured
either for Thanksgiving Day or
November 80, but the athletic au-
thorities want to test the local team
against strong college agSrega-
ton. Washington and Jefferson has
been asked to close the season here.
and has. not definitely declined, but
its failure to accept rather indicates
that it does not look favorably upon
the proposition.
On account of the situation the
attention of the local naval con-
tingent is being centered more and
more on the game with the Great
Lakes team. Practice will be secret
during the rest of the season.
Coach Dobie has not expressed
much satisfaction during the last
few days and does not hesitate to
say that some of his regulars are
a little too confident. He said that
he might enter the final game with
a number of changes. All of his
backs are now available with the
exception of Whelchel, whose illness
will keep him out for the season.
and Roberts. who may rejoin the
squad next week. Rodes. one of
the best substitute backs last sea-
son. who has been i'll this fall, has
at last reported.
The others of the string. all ready
to play, are: Capt. Ingram, Butler.
Coombs. Clark, Benoist, Rawlings,
Severn and Alvord, and any ar
rangement may be forthcoming. In
the line Coldwell, at left end: Den
field. at left guard. and Murray, at
right tackle. have doomed up as
possibly replacing Snively, Saunders
and King.
Basketball will bridge the gap
between football and the winter
sports. 1t is proposed to start on
December and play on all We'd
nesdays and Saturdays through De-
cember and January and February.
Baltimore City College will prob
ably be the midshipmen's opponents
in the opening game, and these
games have been definitely secured:
December IS. City College of New
York; January IS. Swarthmore; Feb
ruary 1, New York University.

NJ ADOO NOTE
STIRS STREET
Letter to Simmons Finance
High-Water Mark,
Says Holland.

since the communication which was
made by the Secretary of the Treas-
ury. Mr.. McAdoo. to Senator Sim
mons. chairman of the Senate Finance
committee, was made public. Il has
been, on the whole, the absorbing
topic not In financial but In business
circles.
The letter had been spoken Of fire.
quently as the high-water mark OF the
financial craftsmanship which Secre-
tary McAdoo has revealed himself TO
be master of since the European war
began. For this reason the Secretary
is spoken of as standing out conspicu-
GUS among the members of the ad-
ministration at Washington and espe-
cially conspicuous in comparison with
some of those who. in Congress. have
prepared revenue and other financial
legislation.
Perhaps the most earnestly and fire.
quently discussed paragraph in the
Secretary's letter. excepting OF course
his recommendation that war profits
and excess profit taxes be eliminated
as soon as possible. was his emphatic
statement that the United States must
continue the furnishing OF credits to
foreign nations even after peace
comes.
Allies Loans Well Secured.
1t does not seem to be realized that
the loans which our government has
made TO foreign nations really repre-
sent investment by the United States
in the securities, notes. or other for
NAL acknowledgment of the debt,
which the Treasury Department holds
and will hold until long after the war
is ended or until this Indebtedness is
liquidated.
At the time of the war between Ja-
pan and Russia. Japan entered the
American market for the purpose OF
obtaining loans and was successful In
that approach. The aggregate of
these loans was. for that time, large.
The transactions. however, did not
involve the government. for the loans
were negotiated by American banks.
Very, little OF the money went TO ia
pan.
Almost every penny of the loans
was drawn upon by Japan in order to
pay for purchases of supplies and raw
material which were made in the
United States. The bankers lent the
money. Japan used il 20 pay Ameri-
can manufacturers and farmers. ana
the obligations were regarded as an
excellent investment and were speed
lily absorbd.

The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1918-04-05

The following Washington dis
patch will be of interest to Times
readers: 1.-TWO years ago Walter l..
Hensley, Congressman from the Thir-
teenth Missouri District, announced
that he would not ask for reelection,
saying the health of his family was
such that he did not desire to continue
his residence in Washington. Since
then he has been receiving numerous
letters from his district asking that he
again stand for election. while
| have no desire to shirk my duty"
said Hensley today. 81 do not want
to continue in Congress and there arc
a number of good men in my dis
trict who would make just as able and
efficient representative as ] am. But
| don't want to quit if the people
who have been loyal to me and who are
insisting that l continue my tenure,
want me to run again. | am giving
the matter serious consideration and
will make an announcement soon."

Tom sat down.
From suppressed laughter in the be-
ginning of Toms speech, the entire
court had now dropped into subdued
sympathy. The old Judge himself
blew his nose vigorously, wiped his
eyes and looked carefully over his
charges again, while the major came
up and whispered in his ear. Quietly,
yet subduedly, and still wiping his
eyes, the old Judge said to the clerk:
"The Court is of the opinion it has
been too hasty in this matter, for, on
reading carefully the second charge
submitted by the defendants counsel,
the court is convinced it erred in not
giving this charge to the jury. The
verdict is, therefore, set aside, and a
new trial will be given the defendant.
The court stands adjourned"
The case never came to trial again,
III
day on. He was sobered, subdued,
crushed. He seemed to think "Marse
John had gone back on him." He
quit drinking, fighting and disputing
on things religious. He even quit
telling his experience "endurin' de
wah," and more wonderful still, went
to work. All this was too much for
him. He became melancholy, morbid
