New Orleans and who are about
to be formally investigated by the
process Of the criminal courts, re.
moved hundreds of employees Of
that Board with the idea that thew
were rendering Mr.. Parker poll
tical service. Mr.. Parker has
publicly approved their actions,
some of which were plainly and
obviously in violation of the civil
service law. Yet, only the day
before, he declared for civil SER
vice in New Orleans, and, in the
same statement, declared for nat
ural gas. Mr.. Parker seems to
be stronger on gas than on civil
service, and he is strong on repeat
ing denials. The more he repeats
that denial, the more he adver-
tises the facts.

"Parker makes this new denial

Fifty per cent more troops were han dled by the railways in the first six months of this year than were handled during the eight months of 1917 after the United States entered the war, ac
 cording to figures compiled by the troop movement section which have just been made public by the railroad administration. The total movement up to June 30 was 5,355,55S men, counting each movement, although of course
 there are Implications because most of them were transported two or three times, from the point of enlistment to the training camp, from the training camp to Q finishing or concentration camp and from the latter to a port of authorization, or has recently been the practice in many cases, from the train ing camp directly to the port of embar- kation. The total includes 1,395.514 na- tional army arrivals, representing the first movement of enlisted men to camp; 2,SS0,l lS9 moved in special trains, and 1.079,S55 handled on regular trains.

CONTINUE BASEBALL
 M MOD|F F|CAT|ONS

CINCINNATI, Ohio, April 14-In a statement issued by the National base ball commission here today, the su- preme court of baseball announces that the decision of Judge Stafford at Washington, in the suit of the Balti- more Federal league club, necessitates no modification of the system under which organized baseball is operating and advises all clubs and players that business will proceed as usual and that all legal contracts must be lived up to by the parties to them. The state ment says:
 The decision made by Justice Staf- ford that organized baseball violated the prohibitions of the Sherman act. was not rendered in a suit by the United States to dissolve the commis- sion. The decision, therefore, necessi- tates no modification Of the system un- der which organized baseball is oper ated Great investments depend upon it's continuance. The government of the United States has not challenged it. ~0n the contrary, when the attention of the department of justice was called to the system and it's operation, the de partment decided that no reason was perceived for governmental interfer ence.

 There will be some question raised as to the time during which Sullivan held the heavyweight championship as stated above. 1S90-1S99 The years given are generally accepted by critics and boxers as being correct, from 1890. Sullivan was the recognized and ad- mitted champion for many years pre- vious to 1890, but, beginning with that year, reliable sporting records have been faithfully kept. Hence, the dates arbitrarily set for the holding by Sul- livan of his championship until his defeat in 1892 by James J. COrbett.

Daniel Webster.

The ponderous strength OF his pow
ers strikes US not more forcibly than
the broad individuality of the man.
Were we unacquainted with the his
tory Of his life, we could almost infer
II from his works. Everything in his
production indicates the character OF
person who has struggled fiercely
against obstacles, who has developed
his faculties by strenuous labor, who
has been q keen and active observer
Of man and nature, and who has been
disciplined in the affairs of the world.
There is a manly simplicity and clear
ness In his mind, and a rugged energy
in his feelings, which preserve him
from all'the affectations of literature
and society. We never consider
him as q; mere debater, a mere scholar,
Or mere statesman; but as; a strong,
sturdy man. The school and the coll
lege could not fashion him into any
foreign shape, because they worked
on material too hard to yield easily
to conventional m0lds. ~ Edwin r.
