intercepted the car at Haines street, and
the thirty six boys were arrested.
Police Turn Them Out
The boys made 80 much racket In the
station house after they had been slated
and the older ones put in cells---the
youngsters going to the detention room
upstairs--that the police were glad to
turn them out with orders to come back
today.
Magistrate Pennock asked the boys
IL they had anything to say. Several
replied vigorously, denying the charges
or protesting that all should not be
punished for the offenses of few.
THE crew said We refused to let
ladies on or off the car" said one fiery
young orator. "That isn't true at all.
We acted like gentlemen--or at least as
near as we could" He got loud
laugh for this speech.
Another boy blamed the swaying Of
! the crowd on the motorman, who started
and stopped with a jolt, the boy said.
and kept them all lurching back and
forward. Other boys pointed out that
some Of the worst troublemakers got of
the car as soon as the first patrolman
| got on.
DIR. Keller. the principal, made a
strong plea for leniency for the boys,
He said that the boys had been actuated
| by spirit Of boisterousness and not
malice, and he thought they might be
trusted to be more careful next time.
Some of the parents took hand in
the proceedings, mostly to express in
dignation at the arrest of the students.

"I think 1t is an outrage to drag
crowd of boys from a trolley car as
IL they were criminals" said one father,

street. What is more, don't propose
to stand for it. I shall call a meeting
of the parents of the boys arrested,
to see what can be done"
Another father, w. f. Taylor, a for :
mer newspaper publisher, whose home
is at 1886 Greene street, also made an
elouucnt plea for the release Of the boys.
Magistrate Pennock announced that
he would hold all the boys over sixteen
years of age under $500 bail to keep
the pence for year. and would permit
them to sign their own bail bonds.
The boys were glad to have the
chance to sign, until one of the parents
bcthought him that signing bail bono
would be an admission of guilt.
Don't sign" shouted half a dozer
fathers to their sons.
"All right" said Magistrate Pen
mock impertubably. "If you don't wan
to sign the bonds why then there il
nothing else to do but to ask you t.

Biggest Deficit

necessary money, but this plan was re-
iectcd by the Republican authorities in
New York.
The trouble with the limit of $1,000
is that very rich men who could easily
give $4,000 or $4,000 without being
suspected Of having any sinister pur
poses give only the $1,000 and then
givers of more moderate circumstances
scale their contributions down in in pro: 70
rortion. The man who has $50 .00O. 900
gives $1,000 and the man who has
81 900 900 gives 500. and so down the
line. Vast numbers of contributions
have been received, but the total con
tributions have not been large.
Another difficulty has been the fail
urc Of the rich eastern states to con-
tribute their share of the funds. In the
mast most Of the money for both parties
has been raised in and around New
York city. This year New York and
PENNSYLVANIA have fallen down badly.
Collection of money for the Republi-
cans in New York. Pennsylvania. Con-
necticut and one or two more eastern
states was in the hands Of Colonel Will

iionairc. The country was divided 90
| TINT he collected for the district around
New York city, while Treasurer Up
| ham and his assistant, Henry NJ. Blair,
collected for the rest of the country.
The professional money gathcrors OF
| the west have been much more success
full than Colonel Thompson's organiza :
| ton.
The pinch due to this deficit is felt
chiefly in states where Republican sen
ators are difficult to elect. In severa
states the Republican candidate for tho
Senate will run considerably behind
Senator Harding. In these states
owing to the shortage Of funds. it has
not been possible to conduct effective
campaigns.
The Republican senatorial committee
which depended upon the national com
mittec for money. is especially dis
tressed over the situation. In spite oi
the practical certainty Of Harding
election by large plurality. control Of
the United States Senate is in doubt.
Little help has been given by the ma
tional committee to Senator Cummin'
in Iowa; Senator Watson. in Indiana
and Senator Smoots in Utah. all O

ing at once. Failing to convince the
management Of that fact, they decided
not to go on with the opera.
Signor Salmaggi was not in the
city last evening. but had appointed
as his representative, Signor s. NJ.
Lovergine. Mr.. Lovergine showed q
| statement which he said he had OBJ
tanned from the management of the
Metropolitan Opera House, and which
| showed that there had been but eighty
seats sold in the orchestra, thirty
three in the orchestra circle, 2S4 in the
first balcony and 253 in the second
balcony. This accounted for only
about 800 seats sold. There were sey.

the audience. as the lower floor of the
house was fairly well filed and the
upper floors were filed almost to ca

mated that nearly four thousand peo-
pie visited the lake in spite of the
threatening rain and muddy roads.
The chautauqua program started
on Sunday, July a. In the afternoon
the Dixie Jubilee singers were intro
duced to the lake audience. Major

address that day, but because of i'll
ness was forced to give up any at
tempt at speaking. Platform Super

On Sunday evening the Jubilee
singers appeared in concert. also with
the Municipal band. whose music was

one of the evening hours.
Governor Harding, of Iowa, inter
| ested his auditors in a splendid dis
course on patriotism and education.
Among the sport events of the day

| crowd. After ten innings had been
| played the score stood at tie, / to /.
Rain descended and the game was
called off. The purse of 500 was
evenly divided There were many
other forms of amusement that kept
all happy and interested.
After the supper hour at 1880 the
Dixie singers reappeared after the
| band concert. Along near $3.50
o'clock there was a grand display OF
fireworks out across the lake. The
bowery dance held forth from one
o'clock in the afternoon until a. m.
today.
Only in one case was any one hurt
on the big celebration day. A spec
tator watching the ball game was
struck by batted foul, though not

CAR SITUATION
TO IMPROVE
DAYS WILL SEE MARKED CAR
INCREASE IN MIDDLE WEST.

Chicago, July eff the car situ-
alton can be held so that conditions
do not become any worse, it is be-
lieved by rail officials that in 10
days a material Improvement will be
shown in the western territory. The
commissions order sending $4,000
empty grain cars from the east tn
the west is in process of execution,
gut because of slow movement re-
suits are not yet in evidence.
One big western road covering
Iowa, rather extensively, at this time
of the year usually has 5000 empty
grain cars on sidetracks in that state
awaiting the grain movement, it was
said. This year that line has not a
single empty car in Iowa. Many rail
road men, howayAT are of the opin-
ion that it is not wise to store cars
as it tends to create famines in 9th
er localities, they say. This road has
been named as the receiving line for
1.2OO grain cars ordered from New
York, New Haven & Hartford rail
way Another line that is TO receive
a similar number from eastern sys-
TENS received only eight of such cars
up to today, it was said.
