WILL SETTLE ISSUE
Of JURISDICTION
I. c. C. Announces Hearing
on Question Regarding W.
R..&E. Depreciation Rates.

The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion, it was announced yesterday. will
give hearing at 2 o'clock on the aft
ernoon of October II to settle the ques-
ton of whether that body or the
local Public Utilities Commission
should fix rates of depreciation for
the property of the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company.
Meanwhile the Interstate Commerce
Commission will conduct an inquiry
into the subject preparatory to the
holding of the hearing.
Issue Raised by w. n. 4 E.
The question of which body has
jurisdiction over the matter Of de-
probation was raised by the Wash,
weeks ago, when the local commits
sion announced that it intended to fix
rules to govern that phase Of the
company's finances.
A public hearing was held at the
District building to enable the COM
in the tentative rules as drafted S.
r. Bowen of counsel for the COM
pany raised the point that the Inter-
state Commerce Commission has 1uris-
diction over the subject of deprecia-
tion for the reason that the Washing
ton Railway and Electric is engaged
in interstate business.
Mr.. Bowen made a motion that the
Washington Railway and Electric.
therefore, be eliminated from consid-
Grafton under the rules drawn by the
local commission.
No Ruling by Utilities Board.
The local commission has not ruled
ION the motion, but has conferred
with the members of the Interstate
Commerce Commission. The hearing
announced today is believed to be
the result of that conference.
Chairman kutZ of the local COM
mission has stated that that body has
no desire to usurp any of the duties
of the Interstate Commerce Commis-
sion, but he wants to be certain that
the Interstate Commerce Commission
has jurisdiction.

it was to be regretted. was assuming

Senator Walsh said that the gov

movement to bring about agreeable
relations with its own employees be-
fore it should attempt to take
stand in employment matters between
private interests and their laboring
personnel.
Representative Hull of Iowa said
that the present time "is not the time
for the government to set an ex-
ample of false economy" in discuss

between the navy yard officials and
employees.

Golf "Pros'' to
Hold Annual Meet
To Reconstruct Organizations
Into State Bodies Instead
of Sections ...

New York, July 9.-(Special. 1.-The
annual meeting of the Professional
Golfers association will be held on
Monday, July Is, at Washington. on
the day preceding the open cham
pionship. At that time notice will be
given Of a motion to amend the con-
stitution to allow the organization to
be reconstructed into state bodies
instead of sections as at present.
Apropos of the pros, the interna-
tional matches as proposed by Mr..
Ross of Inverness last year, have
fallen through. The British Profess
sional Golfers association seemed
willing to nominate George Duncan
and Abe Mitchell. but for some rea-
son or other this pair of Britons
preferred not to accept the nomina-
ton.
The metropolitan section of the P.
G. A. at recent meeting in this city
recommended three courses for the
associations championship in the
fall. Courses named are Inwood,
Lido and Baltisrol. According to
the conditions adopted at the last
annual meeting held at Toledo, the
title holder, Jock Hutchinson, and the
top 81 in the U. S. G. A. open cham
pionship at Columbia will be drawn
for the first match round.

St. Louis Links
Very Difficult
National Amateur Golf Tour.
nament to Be Held in
September.

New York, July 9.-(Special.)-
Little has been heard concerning the
St. Louis Country club links, where
the national amateur championship
tournament will be decided in Sep
tember, so the following announce
ment from the club will be of inter-
est to golfers in general:
players new to the course will
encounter one Of the most difficult
links in the country in the national
amateur at St. Louis. Changes in
construction recently started will
sew up every green, so that rollups
are practically impossible, forcing
the contestants to drop onto the re-
spective greens and with a minimum
roll.
"All but three of the holes will be
affected and it is expected that the
new penalties will make the course
probably four or FIVE strokes more
difficult than formerly. Additional
traps and tees are being built
throughout, requiring greater accu-
racy and distance.
Extensive preparations are being
made for the national event. An
expert greenkeeper has been en-
gagged and assistance has also been
obtained from a prominent course
architect, while the advice of two
experts from the United States De-
partment OF Agriculture has also
been enlisted"

Due Riggs and Bowens Expected Stage Feature Lagl
Jack Dempsey in Danger When He
Tried to Box With Carpenter

| We were informed alter the battle
that Dempsey was working under in
structions from his manager, Jack
Kearns. Kearns said that he was
perfectly satisfied with the way the
worlds champion handled himself,
but it seems the roaring torties'
/, crowd wants to know more about it.
They can't see why it was necessary
for Dempsey to take the pasting
that Georges handed him in the Sec
pnd round. ...
There always is the danger of an
upset i'll this pugilistic game and
those who watched the Frenchman
wallop Jack around the ring thought
that this was going to be another.
1t certainly did look that way for at
least couple OF minutes.
If Dempsey really fought smart
battle against Carpenter, then we
don't know very much about this
glove welding game. All the world
knows that the worlds champions
forte is fighting, not boxing; there
fore why should he ever box, unless
he is tired and needs a rest?
Yet in that first and second round,
especially the opener, when he was
fresh, he essayed to play clever
game. Compilation of punching
table would show that Dempsey was
bested and badly.
Ripping, Tearing Mauler.
That punching by Carpenter
forced complete change in the
tactics of Jack Dempsey. When the
third session started he put his teeth
together tight and became the real
vicious tearing Dempsey, who fears
not what the other fellow has to Of
fer in wallops but is willing to trade.
And so he tore into Georges, no
longer broke ground, but forced the
Frenchman to move backward, and
the punching exchange began. 1t
finished with Carpenter knocked out
cold in that memorable fourth round.
Now, why didn't Dempsey go
right out and fight instead of boxing
from the jump? is the question we
hear. We think that if the worlds
champion had done so, the battle
would have ended in the first or
second round and make this state
ment in the form of fact; not to alibi
ourselves because we picked Demp-
sey to beat Carpenter in round or
two,

Terrific Hitting
Robs Base Ball OF
Much Of Its Science

New York, July o.-(Special Iele-
gram Manager Fred Mitchell OF
the Boston Braves, who is trying
10 overcome the Giants in the Ma
tional league flag chase, is one who
believes the powers that be in base
bali should do something that will
result in the curbing of the terrific
hitting now in vogue in the major
leagues. Mitchell, who is one OF the
sinartest leaders in the big show, is
OF the opinion that the high score
games which prevail nowadays do
not appeal to majority OF the fans. s.
A high score game in which safe
hits of various proportions are made
is all right once in while, but as
an every day happening they rob the
game of much OF its science, thinks
the pilot Of the Braves.
