SHERMAN answers
Man IN THE CROWD
Give Fiume and DaImatia
to Italy Where They
Belong, He Declares.

How about Fiume," inquired an ex-
cited voice in the crowd when United
States Senator Lawrence L. Sherman
of Illinois, addressed 5000 people from
the court house steps on Monday aft
ernoon, when the Italians celebrated
Columbus Day. I'VE will soon tell you
something about Fiume," answered
Senator Sherman as he told how the
outposts of ancient Venice should go
back to Italy, because it belonged to
her originally, and because the treaty
itself provides that the nations should
choose their form of government.
Arithmetic of the league of ma
tons" was defined By Senator sher-
man when he told how Greet Britain
and its colonial governments had six
votes while United States had but one
Canada with seven millions Of people
has one vote and the great states OF
PENNSYLVANIA, New York and Illinois
have but a portion of one vote.
Senator Sherman, who held his
crowd for more than an hour, told the
assemblage that he believed that the
United States should confine its bust
ness to the new world and not inter-
fere with back-fence quarrels in Eu-
rope why do they call the boys GU:
of the corn fields Of Illinois; from the
mines of West Virginia and from the
factories of the Pittsburgh district Tor
service in Silesia, Armenia, Siberia or
Northern Ru4sia?" he asked.
A storm of applause broke when
Senator Sherman told his hearers that
he proposed to vote for the johnson
amendment, which provides that the
United States shall have a voting
mower equal to that of any power
Senator Sherman believes in return
ing Shantung to China, contrasting the
theft of it by Germany, which country
is Obliged to give it to Japan by yir-
ture of a secret treaty entered into be-
tween Great Britain, France and Rus
STA and Japan, to a thief returning
stolen watches to a third party. Dali
malta should go to Italy he believed
and thought that if agitation is kept up
italy may secure Fiume. The other
speaker was Attorney B. Merentino
of Clarksburg.
Last night Masdeo's band rendered
a high class concert at the South Side
park. Ten thousand people witnessed
the display of fireworks, which was
one of the finest ever seen in the city.
The pieces were very elaborate anl
the Italians we're roundly praised fo.
their courtesy Of admitting the public
10 the park gratuitiously.

SATURDAYS GAME
NOT A REAL TEST.
Contest With Maryland
Expected To Show What
Mountaineers Can Do.

afoRGANToWN, Oct. 1.-THE rea
of the strength and power OF

Tiny" Maxwell after the game made
he public statement that no football
team In America could beat West
Virginia ESQ But the Pitt score
enualled Just that and West Virgin
ians everywhere admit that Pitt de
iseryed to win so that settles 1t.
But nobody is willing to admit thai
west Virginia is going ahead thru
tie rest Of the games of the season
playing the brand Of football that she
eShfbited on Saturday. The men art
there and they are ambitious; the
coaches are there and they are tai
ented and capable, and every other
element that goes to make up a strong
ifootball team is at hand.
The Maryland game on this sat,
ufday will determine to some extent
west Yirginia's ability to come
back" The Marylanders have an all
star combination which beat virginia
University on Virginia's field by the
score of 1870 while Pitt was slaughter

BASKETBALL LEAGUE
MEETING IS HELD.
Seven Teams Are Trying
for the Six Places in the
Organization.

Much progress was made at the
meeting of those interested in the or
ganization Of the proposed Industrial
Basketball league which was held last
plight at the Y. NJ. c. A. and it is now
assured that the first game of the
season will be played on the Y NJ C A.
floor November 10, and that the league
will start with six very we'll bal
anced teams, thus insuring good sport
practically from the start.
At present there are seven teams
asking for representation in the league
and from these six will be picked
before the organization takes per-
manent form. The applicants are the
Watson building, the Monongah Glass
the Fairmont Mining Machinery. The
West Virginian, the American Legion
combination formed of employees of
the clippers and Mid West plants and
the electricians.
The eligibility matter has been
worked out to the point where it is

agement of each team which may not
be deviated from while the team re-
mains in the league. These agree
ments have not yet been workd out
in detail but they will be soon, and
it is possible that the constitution
and the playing rules can be adopted
at a meeting which will b held next
Monday evening.
The members of the teams have al
ready begun 10 practice Most OF
them will do their working out on the
y. NJ. C. A. floor when it is not in
regular use, but the Mining Machinery
and the Monongah Glass have made
arrangements to share the playing
floor in the old Normal building and
doubtless there will be im9royised

1t. is believed that the league will
start with a lot of fans. Basketball
always was popular in Fairmont and
the low price of admission which will
be charged ought to attract many
