TWO MEN FAMILIAR WITH
TEXAS POL|T|C HOLD
DIANE TR|C VIEWS UPON
STATUS OF JOE B ALLEY
WITH LONE STAR VOTERS

Texas has an important work TO
do on the 2Sth of August" said II. B.
Oats who is here today from Dallas
where he is engaged in business.
Mr.. Oats said, II helped Mr.. Bailey
ia enter congress and | helped him to
defeat Horace Chiffon an denter the
United States senate, but his stand on
public questions has ruined him as
public man. He does not speak the
language of the Democratic party.
he does not any longer stand for
democracy's sacred principles. He
promises many great reforms for the
state but if he We're to be elected
he could not make good on a single
promise, because he could not get
a legislature in Texas that would work
in harmony with him. 1t is doubtfui
if he could hold the office because
ne Is clearly a nonresident"
In speaking further on the situa-
ton Mr.. Oatis said: Just as import.
ant to democracy was the defeat of
Gore of Oklahoma and Vardamhn of
Mississippi and Kirby Of Arkansas
and the certain defeat of Reed of
Missouri, in 1913, just so it is import
ant TO the democracy of the country
that Joe Bailey of New York be de-
feated for governor of Texas"

cific passenger No. 1S. west-bound he.
tween Kansas City and st. Louis,
left the track three miles west OF

lieved to have been the cause OF the
wreck.
The fact that the accident occurred

ably prevented n more serious wreck.

IN ROU CHI n e. BALL

Boston, Aug. 1S.-The explanation
Of Carl Mays of the New York Am
orleans that the killing of Ray Chap.
man, star shortstop Of the Cleveland
club, was due to a rough spot on the
hall Mays pitched which caused ii
to take an unexpected twist, was the
subject of a statement today by Um-
pires William Evans and William
Dineen of the American League.
mo pitcher in the American League
resorted to trickery more than Carl
Mays in attempting to rough a ball
in order to get a break on it which
would make it more difficult to hit"
said the statement Not until the
new pitching rules came into force
which put severe penalty on q
pitcher roughing the ball, Mays con.
stantly used 10 drag the bail across
the pitching rubber in order to rough
en- the surface. Hundreds of balls
were thrown out every year because
of this act"
Tho umpires took notice Of re.
mark attributed to Mays that Umpire
InOflluS NuIlldnN, WIlO WIS DtluHu
the plate, was responsible for the ac-
cident because he permitted n rough
ball to stay IN the game. The UNI
pires characterized this alleged state
ment as all 'alibi" that came with
poor grace from the pitcher. "A
short time ago." they added, "the
club owners complained to Ban John
son that toQ many balls were being
thrown out President Johnson sent
out bulletin telling the umpires
to keep the ball in the games as
much as possible, except those which
were dangerous.
Pitchers Of the Boston and Detroit
clubs who were at the point yester
day Of signing petition to have
Mays banned from the game. today
awaited word from Manager Speaker
of the Cleveland club, az to his opin
ion of the pitch which killed Chap
man, ana his views on their proposed
action. Several asserted that regard
less Of any general action, they woult
not go to bat against Mays, again.
