quotient of 13,449. To allot the seats
under the new law, the average vote
of each party is divided by the
quotient of the number of voters (S8s-
1889 divided by the number OF can
didates Cd which equals 13, 449. For
each time this quotient (13,449) is
contained in the average vote seat
is auocated. Thus the conservatives
with an average of 1888 get one
seat and the radicals with an aver
age of 24,323 also get one. The re-
naming two seats, according to the
text of the new enactment, go 9o|
to the candidates of the party which
polled the greatest average of votes
and thus the radicals obtain them.
AS to the candidates obtaining the
seats those who polled the highest
number of votes on the lists of the
successful parties are chosen as rep
resentatives.
1t will be seen from this example
that the radicals of Var would have,
obtained only three seats, under the
; new law instead of getting the whole
four.

SPEAKERS CR|TICISE
STATE LEGISLATURE
Because It Failed to Make Ap-
preparation for Service Men

The legislature which recently
closed it's sessions at Hartford came
in for some severe criticism at a meet
inlg of the soldiers and sailors held
yesterday afternoon in Fox's theater
for having failed to pass an appro-
priation for the ex-service men. The
meeting was held under the auspices
of Leonard Wood camp of Hartford,
and Benedict M. Holden, Of Hartford,
and Thomas P. Mccarthy. master-at-
arms, Z. S. Navy, were the principal
speakers.
Mr.. Holden explained the purpose of
the meeting and proposed forming an
organization in this city. "A fund for
the association was started with a gift
Of SIS by Mr.. Holden. The purpose
of the organization will be to give aid
to any soldier or sailor who served
under the colors and has an honorable
discharge. Leonard Wood camp was
started in Hartford soon after the
trouble with Mexico and has accom-
plished a great deal of work in it's
short existence. 1t is planned to have
branches in every city about the state.
A charter has been obtained from the
legislature.
Mr.. Holden explained that some of
the organizations of veterans were not
political. The branch to be formed
in this city would be chiefly POLITICAL
he declared. The organization would
mix in politics enough to select the
right men who would give the SOL
diers the greatest amount Of help.
I'VE did not have the proper rep
resentation in the Legislature at the
last session and so we did not get
some of the things We wanted, but we
hope to get them at later sessions
when we are organized" said MI
Holden.
Membership in the organization,
said Mr. Holden, would not be limited
to soldiers, sailors or marines who
fought in the World War. Any man
who has ever donned a uniform for
the defense of this country would be
eligible to membership, providing he
had received an honorable discharge
and was not a conscientious objector
or a Stacker
because conscientious DIRECTORS
and slackers were forced to do their
bit is no credit to them,'' said Mr..
Holden, and we don't want them
| with u.s.
! Mr. Holden sugg ested that an ex-
| ecutiVe committee consisting of one
veteran of the Civil War, one from
| the Spanish American War and three
! from the World War be chosen to
| handle the business.
! Mr.. Mccarthy who presided at the
| meeting, told of the benefits derived
| in other states by the soldiers The
i legislatures showed their appreciation
| of the boys by making appropriations,
he said. All the men in Connecticut
| received, he continued, was "Thanl1
! you; we appreciate the fact that you
wasted your time for us" The
| speaker said that the soldiers wanted
| better representation and that they
| would get it, providing they were or
| gained in a body.
He explained the fees and dues and
! secured the names Of a number Of
| men who desired to become charter
! members of the local branch. At a
| meeting to be held in the near future
the local branch will be named and
arrangements made to secure a

CicOtte's Arm
InCOOd Shape.
Says Gleason
White Sox Manager Declares
Star Will Be Ready to
Pitch Opener Tomorrow

CHICAGO. Sept. 29.-Thousands of
to Comiskey Park to-day seeking tick
cts, for which they had made reserva-
ton, only to find that in most cases
each person was being awarded about
f~eae~ffth the number Of admission slips
applied for.
With applications for tickets run
ming up to the 2OO, 900 mark-the great
est in the history Of local baseball--the
White SoX management found it nee
cssary to cut virtually every order
and to throw out thousands Of others.
The White Sox did not hold practice
this morning, because of work being
done on the field in preparation for
the games here. but this afternoon
Manager Gleason held meeting of
the players, at which final plans for
the opening game at Cincinnati
Wednesday were discussed. The team
left for Cincinnati tonight.
Following the meeting, Manager
Gleason said that Eddie Cicotte, pre-
micr pitcher of the American League,
whose arm has been giving some trou-
bic the last few days, was in perfect
shape, and ready to start the first
game at Cincinnati. Every man on the
team is in perfect shape. he said
Besides Manager Gleason and his
twenty-threc players, ten or twelve
newspaper men accompanied the team
to Cincinnati. The Woodland Bards,
official White Sox roofing organization,
has rounded up party of 250 fans,
who Will leave for Cincinnati to-mor-
row night.
Every man on the team was declared
to DO fit. and each expressed himself as
confident that the Sox would come back
to Chicago Friday with a two-gamc
lead on their National League rivals.
Manager Gleason has given his team a
complete rest since they clinched the
pennant several days ago. In the final
three games of the season. each of
which resulted in defeat for the Chi
Sagoans, the lineup was made up most
~ of substitutes, and the regulars
played such indifferent ball that they
were booed and hisscd by many fans at
yesterdays game.
Tomorrow the team expects to take
q stiff work out in Cincinnati, either at
the Reds park or, if the Reds use it, at
some amateur field.
w me no ucllnllc announcement has
been made, the White Sox players are
sure that Gleason will pick Eddie CT
cote to hurl the opening game, with
Claude Williams as the likely nominee
for the second contest. Gleason said
Cicotte and Williams would work the
first two games, but would not say
whether the right-hander or the south
paw would be his first choice Both are
said to be in excellent shape, Cicotte
having recovered from the soreness
which troubled his arm the latter part
of the season.
Louis Comiskcy, son of the owner of
the White Sox, did not accompany the
team tonight. He is reported Seriously
i'll, threatened with appendicitis and
probably will not witness any of the
games.
