NEWCASTLE TO TEST
 LAW ON CONTRACTS

Newcastle, Pa, July 9.---The right of organized baseball to sign a player who has a contract with an industrial or semi-professional club, without coming to terms with non-league teams, will be tested in court, accord ing to an announcement made here by w. E. Duerstein, an official of the Castle Cords nine of Newcastle.
 Iuerstein has telegraphed his at torneys at Macon, Ga., to take action against the Atlanta team of the South ern League, which recently signed con- tracts with Cliff Markle, pitcher, and Fred Mills, catcher, of the Cords The Cords had agreements with Markle and Mills to play with the club here this season, but, despite this. the At lanta team signed them, according to Duerstein. The question at issue, he said, is whether a contract with an independent club is not as binding as one with league team

PEN ROSE SCORES
 AN EASY VICTORY

The Triple Springs Farm scored double triumph at Aqueduct yester- day when the four-year-ofd lilly Pen Rose captured the Miss Woodford Handicap at mile which was the feature of the card, and King Agrip- pa led home a field of cheaper per- formers in the following event at a mile. The victory of Pen Rose. however, was won with the aid of racing luck. for the lilly got home first only after Commander J. K. L. Ross Mildmaid had bled at the head of the stretch and had to be pulled up-
 The accident to Mi1kmaid was de- plored not only because she was the favorite in the race, but more par ticularly because she is one of the most popular racers of her sex. She has been a steady and consistent per- former under heavy weights and against the best horses, and is gen. orally regarded as the best flly in this country.
 Milkmaid b1ed so badly that she had to be pulled up to a walk just at a time when 1t appeared that she was winning. It Is the opinion of her trainer that this was due to her long and hard campaign. She will be given a rest and may not be seen in action again until autumn

ANOTHER OLD-TIMER
 RESPONDS TO CALI,

Another old timer is gone," was the sad comment of the old-time sport fan when he heard of the death of Par son. Davies, the well known sporting promoter of the old days TT remem- her, back in the eighties, when Davies made name for himself as the man. ager of Dan OLeary, the famous walker. Later he took over the man. agement of Peter Jackson, the well known colored heavyweight, and he certainly did make a fighter out of that black man. It was while under the Parsons management that he fought a 60-round draw with Jim Corbett-and let me tell you, that was going some for any fighter.
 Later Davies put Jackson in the title role of a company playing Uncle Toms Cabin,' Joe Choynski acting as his sparring partner in boxing ex- hibitions which Davies incorporated into the plot of the play. He organ ized another theatrical company still later, with John L. Sullivan and Paddy Ryan playing leading parts"

 The rock on which the plans of the managers and promoters came to grief was that of contracts, the sanctity of which formed the basis of more than one speech during the progress of the meeting.

the Lincoln Highway from Medicine

pose of Locating any deposits of sand,
gravel, shale. etc. necessary for this
work. As all materials used must be
tested prior to their use. samples are
being forwarded to the laboratories and
tested, not only in order that the var

locality of the acceptable materials.
but that detailed report of the nature
of the terrain may be at hand. as this
is an important factor in determining
the haulage costs.
Bids on all of the above projects are
to be advertised for at an early date

under the income tax law. For the in

following:
Section 2S of the act of September

during any calendar year, shall render
n true and accurate return covering
the payments made, which return
shall disclose the names and addresses
of the recipients of such payments,
and the aggregate amount paid to each

gate of $500 or more TO any employee.
