forty-eight planned today to receive,
in order, representatives of the fol
lowing groups:

Just before the conference commit
tees session, Robert G. MacAuley, of

zation would insist on retaining Its
identity.
1.-The only way in which wo Will
join with the other groups is on a
common presidential candidate" he
said.
MacAuley repeated that Senator
Robert M. La Toilette, popular choice
of the other groups, would mot be
acceptable" He said his organization
would endorse either Henry Ford or
Amos Pinchot-
Sentiment had practically crystal
ICED today upon ticket to head the
proposed political party. The appar-
ent choice of majority OF the rep
resentatives of the various groups
was:
Senator Robert M. La Toilette for
president.
Amos Pincfot for vice president.
From authoritative sources it was
learned La Toilette has definitely de-
cided to await some guarantee of the
liberalism and permanency OF the
new movement before agreeing to
accept the nomination If it is ten
dered.
The resolutions committee Of the
committee Of forty-eight was sched-
uled to take. up plank calling upon

Dozen Games Separate Leaders and

NEW YORK, July 12-Cleveland, in
the lead by half game and Brooklyn
setting the pace with one-game mar.
gin at the half
A more hectic condition of affairs
than exists now in the major league
races hardly could be conceived.
The National league, with little
more than dozen games separating
the leaders from. the cellar holders,
has about as much stability as a
feather in a whirlwind.
Last week, Mitchell's men split even
in eight games-just ordinary base
ball. Yet the Cubs hoped from fifth
to third place.
The Reds won only three out of
seven games and they dropped out Of
the lead by only one game.
The Dodgers won eight out of nine
starts and got in the lead by only
one game.
The Cards and the Pirates won four
out Of nine games and dropped down
a notch.
The Giants split even in six games
and didn't bulge an inch.
The inability of the Braves, the
Giants and the Pills to move out of
the lower regions is the only consist
ent part of the race.
The American league speeded
through the week with not change
in the scenery.
At the half way mark it looks like
Cleveland, New York and Chicago for
the real battle in the American league.
Chances for the pennants in both
leagues appear to depend chiefly upon

open the session Fry dumped bunt
bach of the box and beat ii out. This
put two on with none out. Fry danced
Ion first far enough to entice Stephens
to peg, and the throw was a mile
wide. Finigan started home with the
peg, and scored easily.
1t was game that was fun Of
thrills from start to finish. Fort
Madison apparently won 1t in the
seventh when four hits, two OF them
doubles were made off Schwiete. This
was the only time the young Keokuk
star was in trouble. His support
which was sparkling in the pinches
saved him trouble at several stages.
Keokuk came back in the eighth
Iand with two men on bases Brown
dumped long fly into the hands of
Right Fielder Davis. The Indian
juggled the ball and finally dropped
it. To add insult to injury, while two
men were crossing the plate, Brown
,stole third.
Keokuk,s tenth was full of chances
for run, but a shoe string catch by
Blair and grandstand catch Of
Browns smashing hit by Fart spoiled
the winning run then.
Fort Madison scored in the first
when Niggemeyer was given life on
Bucks error. Sphinx hit to Schwiete
who threw to Rae, catching Nigge at
second. Rae tried to complete the
double play, but Nigge interfered.
Sherwood and Fart followed with
sin giles, scoring Sphinx.
Two for Locals.
Keokuk came back for two in the
second. Brown singled and went to
second on Ffnigan's sacrifice. Fry
lived on an error, which allowed
Brown to score, and he stole third. |
coming home on Jamison's wild pitch.
Fort Madison tied it in the sixth
on hit, sacrifice and an error on
Schwiete, who threw wide to first
base
In the seventh the visitors started
a cannonade. Davis hit for two
bases, and Stephens followed suit. |
Jamison's hit scored the catcher. Sal |
lander singled and Niggemeyer walk |
ed, but F'rr made a great catch of
Spink's dive.
In the eighth Keokuk scored two
and tied the count. Dickey lived ON |
bobble. Anderson walked j
Rae hit to the infield and Anderson !
was Caught at SeCOuu, DlCkey going
to third. Browns fly to the Indian i
in right was dropped and two scored. |
Dickey was hurt in the tenth when
he singled and went to second when
SaIlander dropped Anderson's fly.
Crimmins took his place. Rae famed,
and Brown swatted to center field, |
but was robbed of hit by Zart's
brilliant catch.
The work OF Russell Fry in center
field for Keokuk was sparkling, Sat
urday. The captain pinched off sew
eral long drives and he played won
derful fielding game. Anderson at |
first did some good stopping on
some wide throws, and altogether the
team gave Schwiete some brilliant
support.

work out plans for the machinery Of
the proposed amalgamation and to
formulate the basis of a common plat
form. while to the general body of
conferees was left the matter of
a suitable name for
the new third party.
The conferees adjourned this morn
Ing without having reached decision
on the name question.
Labor party conferees who insisted
the word tabor" be retained in any
new party title finally withdrew for
a caucus and it was agreed by the
forty-eighters, to postpone action. The
prevailing choice among the forty
Fighters was "the united party"
During the debate on the name
question, friends of Senator Robert

ferees his wish that the name be the

that his acceptance of possible
