COFFEE MARKET.

NEW YORK. July 1.-THE ex-
pectatiop of continued government
support of milreis prices for coffee
in Brazil has served to check spec
ulative selling in the futures mar
ket here, but demand has failed
to broaden. Buyers for consump-
tion probably feel that they will
experience no difficulty in securing
adequate Supplies as these develop
within a reasonable margin of the
governments buying figures. and an
early advance in today's market was
checked by reports of an easier
ruling in Rio. First prices were
unchanged to points higher. and
active months sold to 6 points
above last weeks closing figures
shortly after the call. There was
some trade buying of March, but
otherwise very little demand, and
the market later sagged off under
scattered realizing.

100 reis higher. At Rio, however,
the early cables reported a decline
of 50 to 275 reis and later the mar
ket was ur-Nanged to 200 reis low
er. This was taken to nean that
the cold snap reported late last
week had caused no nervousness
over coming crop conditions. and
the easier ruling of foreign ex-
change was considered against any
immediate revival of European de-
mand for coffee.
Temperatures in one district OF
Sac Paulo dropped to the zero point
toward the end Of last week, and
frost was reported in other dis
tricts. but the weather was fair
and warmer on Sunday.
No change was reported in the
local spot situation, and quotations
were more or less nominal on the
basis of 6h to 6% for Rio Is, and
9h to 9& for Santos As.

Steel Price Reductions.

The further reduction in steel
prices by the principal producer
which was not unexpected. ranges
from 81 to $40 ton, and marks the
second official revision of the year
Additional wage adjustments have
also become effective. and the indus
try is steadily working toward a
point from which a revival may de-
velop. The rate of manufacturing
meanwhile, has receded to an even
lower level than previously. the

smallest of any month since Janu-

the East Siders will have one Of the
best high school teams in the state.
With football out OF the way the
school leaders are turning their at.
tention to basketball and the local
public should be treated to some
real floor games during the season.
There will be q meeting Of the NO

uIday, when the schedules for the
teams in this association will be
made up. These games OF course
include only those between the
members of the association, and
each individual member of the or.
ganization Will schedule several
games outside the schedule. The
local public Is very fond Of good
basketball and with two high
schools, the Normal school and
several independent teams in the
field this season the fans should
have a real run for their money.

SCHAEFER TELLS
ABOUT VICTORY
Man Who Defeated Hoppe
in Billiards Gives
Story of Win
BY Jacob schssfer, Jr..

I have always believed in the
theory that comes to him
who waits and works-c tally
works.
For almost IL years, ever since
the billiard championship was
transferred from my father TO
Hoppe, / have been waiting. pDac-
ticing constantly and working to
get the title back to our-the
Schaefer-family.
But playing at billiards.. that is
playing at them we'll and prof.
GENTLY. is unlike anything else in
the world that / can think OF.
The expert billiard player. or
the player who aspires to become
expert at the game in my estIma-
ton can never acquire sufficient
skill through his own endeavor.
Primarily he must have been born
with the trait OF the cue and the
stroke"
In other words, billiards. not
the mediocre game but the game
of experts. Is an inherited faculty.
1t requires vision for strategy.
courage for rebuff and great nerve
reserve.
My father was champion for
years until 1909 when he played
his last tournament with Willie
Hoppe.
Hoppe himself Is a marvellous
opponent. He has every bit OF
technique and prodisious mastery
of the games fine points and de-
tail.
But had made up my mind
to defeat him. OF hours and
hours before the Chicago tourna-
ment began. and which I knew

That was where ! had the better

ing his title. / Aad told myself
that l had to beat him.
With that sort OF incentive urg-
ing me, I simply went ahead and
played for all that was in me.

as good II not a better tackle this
year, but injuries prevented him
from being at his best in the Yale
game. A number OF critics for tina.
reason may weaken on Keck. but
to my way OF thinking it is impos-
sible to overlook his great ability.
In the west Mcclure is rated as
a great tackle. In the first two
periods of the ChiCago-Princeton
game Mcclure slightly outplayed
Keck. Coach Roger easily explain.
ed this by saying that Princeton
had expected Chicago to play an
open game. and that he had in
structed his line TO play high and
keep their heads up. Instead. Chi
cage played a running game OF
tackle and round the ends. The
Chicago forwards charging low
were making trouble for the Prince.
ton line. and Mcclure was putting
Keck out OF many a play.
McGrire himself admits that
when Keck got down and started to
charge low, it was Impossible to
make any advance against him.
Into Of Yale draws the other tackle.
The ends In the easl THIS year are
generally admitted to be below the
standard. In fact there are not
very many good ends in the east.
Snively Of Princeton Is a wonder at

throwing forward passes and is a
good defensive player.
Macomber OF Harvard makes u
fine running mate for Snively. On
.offeuse he knows how to box the
tackle, and is a wonder at getting
Interference out OF the way. He Is
also a good man at receiving the
forward pass. Sturm Of Yale and
McCollum OF Penn State are two
other good ends.
Brown Of Harvard is just about
the hest guard in the east In the
Yale game he was at his Peak. He
smeared most OF the plays directed
at him. and made many tackles be-
hind the line. Carney Of Annapolis
Is also a mighty fine guard. His
work has featured practically every
game the Navy has played. Against
Princeton he scored the touchdown
that heat the Tigers. Baker OF
Princeton is close M.
stein at. center has PLAYED his
usual fine game. In only the Ne.
braska game has he failed TO shine.
He has been the strength Of the
Pittsburgh line. and has done more
open field tackling than any man on
the team. Wittmer Of Princeton
and Shurtletfs Of Brown r close
rivals.

OF the east, who can do everything

believed that twice as many men

BURNED ALIVE BY
INDIAN FANATICS
Aged Widow Is Selected as
the Victim.

CALCUTTA. July 16.-That religious
fanaticsm, with its attendant horrors,
still prevails in India is evidenced by a
recent case IN Malawa. one Of India's ma
tive states. The inhabitants OF Malawa
and Morvada refused to pay taxes to their
overload. and they had recourse to the
traditional method Of calling down ven
geance upon the state by burning an old
woman alive.
They selected an aged widow and pre-
pared pyre upon which she was placed,
her relatives being present. Then the
pyre was fired. A revenue officer who was
In the district upon being Informed Of
what was happening, ordered troops TO
rescue the woman.
AS the soldiers neared the pyre the
doomed woman was seen TO be making
frantic efforts to save herself. but every
time she struggled she was pushed back
into the flames. the natives being deter
mined that their sacrifice be completed.
Armed with sticks. knives, daggers. and
swords, the Indians prevented the troops
from approaching, and It was not until
several soldiers had been wounded that q
yoley was fred and the crowd dispersed.
The woman. however. was dead. Seven
natives were killed by the soldiers In the
attempted rescue.

CLAIMS LEGION
DOING CROOKED
WORK FOR PLAZA
G. w. Miller Charges Deception
by Men Opposing Effort to
Force Referendum.

Charge that deliberate attempt is be-
ing carried out to cause withdrawal of
signatures from the anti-plaza petition
by deception was made by G. w. Miller,
leading opponent Of the plaza plan,
today.
The charge is based on a postal card
questionable which has been sent to
signers of the petition by the county
council of the American Legion. Three
questions are printed on the card:
did you personally sign the petition
against a World War memorial in Indi-
anapolis7
what is the street and number of
your residence address?
Are you opposed to the construction
Of the proposed World War Memorial in
Indianapolis"
The first and third Of those questions
are purposely misleading" said Mr.
Miller so far as We know no petition
against the World War Memorial was
ever circulated. AS far as the con
struction Of a World War Memorial in In
dianapolis IS concerned, provision has
been made by the State Legislature fol
such construction and I know Of no one
who has any idea of opposing 1t at this
late day.
Our petition Is a remonstrance against
the proposed addition Of a costly plaza
to this " orld " ar Memorial
"A number Of PERSONS have inquired OF
US how they should answer the question
naire Our advice has been to ignore
It. or, II the recipient felt that he was
obliged TO make answer. to say no.
Letters accompanying the question
naires were signed by J. Frank Cant
we'll chairman OF the Marion County
Council Of the American Legion, The
envelope bears a return card with the
address OF the American Legion commit
tee, $50 Lemcke Annex building. The
letter is as follows:
Dear Sir or Madam.
I'VE have discovered many irregulari-
ties In the petition against the World
War Memoir n the City Of indianapolis
Your name appears among the list OF
signers. In order to find out what the
real facts are we ask you to answer
the questions contained on the enclosed
card and return to US in the enclosed
stamped envelope at once"
This attempt at confusing the issue
is the elimination Of the campaign OF
publicity to entagle this matter so that
the voters Of indianapolis will find diff
fculty in expressing their convictions
at the polls" said Mr. Miller. We have
repeatedly pointed out that this remon-
STRANGE is not against the Indiana World
War Memorial The indianapolis News
nevertheless has continued to refer 10 1t
as the anti-vsr memorial petition.
