airy, L. n. c., last night in the fourth
contest Of the arc-light season staged
IN the armory at Thirty second street
and Lancaster avenue. The score was
1o to Z. The winners made touch
downs in the second. third and fourth
periods and the losers counted in the
second quarter.
A big crowd saw the battle from the
galleries and sidelines. There was a
large sprinkling of femininity in the
huge inclosed arena, many Of whom
helped their male champions in a siren
uous roofing contest. Glenside brought
a large delegation down and the Troop
erH had. as usual, fine following.
The Cavalrymen were first to score.
In the second period Glenside had the
ball on their own 30-yard line. Gray
shot forward pass across the field
which Chuck Keogh intercepted and ran
for a touchdown. Schatel, the former
West Philly High player and Argonne
hero, kicked the goal. Shortly after this
Gray crashed for a touchdown after
Glenside had obtained possession of the
ball by punt which fell at the 15- yard
line after hitting a girder.

Other Singers
BIZ SuLpester RnnLinn.

CINGERS figured largely in the mu-
y sical Weekend. Titta Ruffo, at
the Hdppodrome, last night, had
1000 hearers. He was not in good
voice, probably was suffering from a
cold; but that made no difference.
Tho audience. largely made up Of
italian oompatriots, forgave him all
his defects and aided and abetted him
to the full extent Of their lungs in his
EFFORT to raise the roof. The supreme
moment was reached after his singing
Of F'igaros factotum aria from "The
Barber Of Seville" Then there was
pandemonium that reached climax
IN Mr.. Rutfo leading the acclaim for
himself. Mr.. RUffo has the best bari

training he is an artist; but Mr.
Rufo, for the present at least, has
chosen to abandon his art 70 the
Philistines. Assisting him was Nina
Morgana- soprano. who sang arias
from operas by Bellini and Rossni.
Another baritone was heard yesteT-
day, Reinald Werrenrath, an Ameri-
can, who gave recital in the after
noon at Carnegie Hall. Here we
heard an artist to his finger tips, with
a voice Of no great dimension. but OF
quality in every range, with an enun-
citation absolutely clear with an APP
probation Of and penetration into
the very heart of the intention Of the
composers that was convincing. He
began with old italian airs, eXquisitely
sung, with the "Nittoria" of Giacomo
Carissimi for a climax. Later he gave
a group Of Songs of the Hcbrides,"
collected and arranged by Marjory
Kennedy Fraser. to whom he paid
tribute, adding tcrse explanation Of

nj English and American songs by
R. Vaughan Williams, Thomas p

 KILLING IF TURFMAIV

NEW YORK, June 22.-District At torney Swan announced tonight that he had sent for Miss Ely Hope An dersop. a Minneapolis singer. to ques- ton her in connection with his investi- gation of the murder of Joseph B.

While dining on the hotel roof, they met Elweu, accompanied by Miss Viola Kraus divorced wife of Non Schlegell, and other friends. The district at tornev said he intends to question Miss Anderson about this meeting and of events prior and subsequent thereto.

HAGUE TRIBUNAL TO PLAY B|G PART IN
 WORLD R|GH COURT
rRepubllcan A. p. Leased WlteJ

THE HAGUE. June 22-Discussions of the commission of jurists today strengthened the theory that the exist ing Hague arbitration tribunal will not be abolished if a high court of na- tions is formed, but on the contrary, that the tribunal will not only func- ton as formerly, but have a consid- erable part in selecting the high court judges.
 The members of the commission took under consideration. today the possi bility Of dove -tailing the Root-Philli more plan with the plan proposed by Baron Des Camps for which a meth cd was suggested by MT. Root.
 Though the efforts of the jurists working on the draft plan of the court of nations are entirely unaffected by politics, the delegates have been sub jected to the usual flood of letters from organizations seeking to force national aspirations into the limelight.
 All these letters, of course. are cast aside. as the members are firmly de- termined that their duty is merely to form a court.
 The first Hague tribunal arbitration since the war will take place in Sep tember next. with MT. Root as chair man of the arbiters. This has to do with a litigation begun before the war. involving Spain, France. Portugal and Italy in the question of responsibility for damage to churches and property in Portugal during the revolution.

Ascribe Cause of Quake

SAN FRANCISCO. June 22.-The tembIor that shattered Inglewood, Los Angeles county. last night was southern California's second experience with earthquake shocks within three years. On April 21 1918, the towns of San Jacinto and Hemet in Riverside coun- ty. about 70 miles southeast of Los Angeles, were severely damaged in a' series of three earthquakes. The effect of the disturbance was plainly felt in Los Angeles, where plate glass win dows were broken. An earthquake affecting the same territory occurred on December p. 1889, and there was extensive property damage and some loss of life.
 No earthquake has occurred in Cali fornia in recent years, however, ap- preaching the severity of the disaster that visited san Francisco on April IS, 1906. when the city was laid in ruins through the combined effects of the earth disturbance and fire.
 Laymen familiar with causes of earthquakes in this state ascribe last nights disturbance in Southern Cali fornia to a slipping of the strata r., the principal geological fault extending along the coast range mountains from a point on the northern California coast about 200 miles north of San Francisco to Gulf of Lower California This fault follows the coast line closely for a distance of about 100 miles south of San Francisco. when it swerVes in- land approximately 20 miles and grad uaIlv extends further eastward. trav- ersing Los Angeles, Riverside and san Diego counties.

DIES MONIES, Iowa, June 22.-With the announcement today that Iowa's delegates had in caucus voted to sup port Mrs. Thomas c. Winter from Min neapolis for president of the General Federation of Women's Clubs doubt as to the result of the election held here today was swept away. Mrs. Winters opponent was Miss Georgia A.

 Iowa cast 332 votes and most of the middle western states had declared themselves for Mrs. Winter. All of them have large delegations. Miss Bacon was supported by eastern and New England states, with smaller delega tions.
 Other officers are being chosen in the balloting, which closed late to- night. Only Mrs. Adam Weiss of Colo rado and Mrs. B. B.

IRepublican A. P. Leased Wlrel

DUBLIN, June 22-The government again today directed that the police board the train at Cloughjordan for Dublin and the railway workers again declined. as they did yesterday, to move the train.
 Although some Great Southern rail- waymen have been dismissed for re- fusfng to drive trains in pursuance of their anti-munitions policy. it is eX- pected a strike will not follow.
 The policy of the men seems to be to avoid a strike, which they say the premier is playing for. They announce they will continue in their refusal to handle munitions or drive trains with troops aboard. They are prepared for individual dismissaIs, but say they will not strike in protest.
 Officials of the national union Of railwaymen are standing aside and this attitude is meeting with criticism by the executives of the Irish Labor party

GIVES REASONS FUR BELIEVING CARRANzk
 DIED AT OWN HANDS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

MEXICO CITY, June 22.-Carranza' s own words shortly before his death, the position of his body when found, the nature of the wounds and the three empty cartridges indicated that the president committed suicide, according to Maj. Ernesto Herrero, upon whose report Gen. RodoIfo Herrero, who IS charged with responsibility for the late presidents death, bases his oft-repeat- ed statement that Carranza killed him. self. Ernesto Herrero made this asser- ton during an interview with the As sociated Press correspondent today. Ernesto and Rodolfo are cousins.
 Relating the story of the battle at Tlaxcalantongo in the early morning of May 21, Major Herrero said:
 'sTwenty minutes after the firing stopped my men and I. who had been forced to retire by the fire of Carran- za's escort, knocked at the door of the presidents hut. When We received no answer we shouted Wa would fire if the door was not opened.
 We then received a reply assuring us of admittance. but we were ordered to have a light to avoid a surprise at tack as we entered. This was done and we passed into the hut, no shots being fired by either side
 "Berlanga. minister Of the interior in President Carranza's cabinet. advanced toward us and appeared to fear we would harm him From the direction of the gaze of his two or three com panions I learned in what part of the hut Carranza lay. He was lying on his right side with his hand clutching a pistol from which three shots had been fired His shirt showed powder marks
 "Berlanga said that Carranza had told his companions he was wounded in the leg and that those who could had better save themselves. because he was unable to do so. Berlanga ex- pressed belief that Carranza had com mitted suicide. and so declared in a signed statement later. I examined the body, but could find no leg wound"
 General Rodolfo Herrero. who was present at the interview. pointed out that the wound in Carrauza's chest had been made bv an fashioned pistol. which he said was found in the presi- dents hand. and not by rifle fire. Ro- do1fo denied he had assigned buts to the Carranza party and asserted the bullet holes concentrated in the corner of the hut wheref Carranza lay might have been made later by the presi- dents followers to throw suspicion to- ward me"
 "Carranza's escort was capable Of anything" he declared 'Onlv RoniI- las Cformer- ambassador at Washing ton) defended himself like a man"

FATHER IF DRY ACT BEATEN FOR
 DENOMINATION
LRepublican A. p. Leased wirel


 ST. PAUL, June 22.-Congressman A. J. Volstead. Republican, author of the prohibition enforcement act, was defeated for renomination in yester- days primary by the Rev. O. J. Kvale of Benson. Non partisan league can- didate, on virtually complete returns tonight.
 This congressional upset in the Seventh district, the only district in which an incumbent seeking renomi- nation was unsuccessful, almost over shadowed the unusually close race for the Republican gubernatorial nomina- ton.
 J. A. O. Prens, state auditor, still had a lead of 15000 votes in the guberna- torial race over Dr. Henrik Shipstead, Non partisan league candidate, when returns had been tabulated from more than 2500 of the 3195 precincts in the state.
 Rev KvaIe is a pastor Of the Nor wegian Lutheran church and is 52 years old He has been a clergyman for 26 years. In connection with Vol steads authorship of the prohibition act it was pointed out by friends of Kyale here tonight that he advocated absolute prohibition for more than a score of years. He became minis ter in Wisconsin but moved to Minne- sota several years ago.
 Two years ago, Congressman Vol stead was opposed for renomination by Dr. Shipstead, now seeking guberna- toriaI houors.
 Returns from 2,645 precincts out of 3.195 gave Preus, 124,956 and Shipstead, 1O9S45. In the Seventh congressional district, 331 precincts Of 375 gave Kvale, 15, 40S. anG Volstead, 13,So3.
