Printers Trim Cubs

The Printers daubed black ink on
the noses OF the Cubs at the Ball Park
Saturday afternoon and the creatures
were soon tanned. The final score
stood 1s-1 in favor Of the Printers.
The Cubs used four pitchers, Grace,
Hahn, Christian and Grace again. All
were daubed with heavy hitting with
every - printer practically chalking
down a safe slam. Hahn made rec
ord for balls when he threw ten
straight, wide OF high ones,. walking
the printers freely. Herb Hengstler
banged out three hits and Joe Kvam
connected twice. All in all some nine
good hits were registered for the prin-
ters and gift of three hits was pre-
sented to',the Cubs by Pitcher Heng-
stler. of the Printers. One error for
the Printers was remarkable ball
playing contrasted with the frequent
spilling of the ball by the Cubs. The
game was tied until the 5th, when the
Printers got three runs. Ed. kiland

no clue TO the murderer but descrip;
ton given By Mrs. p atrick Mccarthy,
living nearby. of a man SHE saw walking
up ana down in front of the Bartlett
home. This man is described as more
than six feet tall and very thin. OF "A
dark and saturnine cast OF countenance
with a small black mIlstache. Mrs
Mccarthy said that sever al times when
she went TO her front door between s
and 10 o'clock IN the ma ming she saw
the man walking up and down In front
Of the Bartlett house. and that later
she saw him admitted TO the place by
the front door. Mrs. Mccarthy thought
nothing of this, however. because since
the property has been known to be for
sale many persons have visited the house
and others have walked tsast 1t and in

This man. seen by Mrs. Mccarthy, is
believed by the Nassau county authori-
ties TO have been the man who said he
was Nicholas Steffin; but whether he
is also Mr.. Quinn is not known. The
Garden City police, however. said last
night that so far as they have been

preliminary to the opening of the Ritz
Carlton Hotel. Atlantic City's latest

Bader and other city officials
The principal address was made by
William Harris. president OF the COM
pany, who said that the new hotel was
here to do business for the average
American citizen and not for the mill
lionaire.
IF the average American citizen
said Mr. Harris, wants q chop or bread
and cheese his custom will be welcome
to us. II the millionaire likes to come
we shall be glad to have him. but we
are not making il our speciality to cater
to him for two reasons. First OF all
there are not enough of them to go
around. and | find mllionaires like just
as much for their money as the ordinary
citizen, and sometimes more"
The new hotel, which possesses many
unique features, occupies All entire block
on the beach front between Iowa and
Belmont avenues in the Chelsea section.
II will be run on the same plan as the
other hotels of the company i'm the
United States and Europe.
One of the novelties is an elevator
exclusively for bathers. who may put
on their bathing suits in their rooms and
go down in the elevator to a tunnel
which leads to the beach.

"Speculators got such large snare OF
the loans,' said the statement, that
they were able to gamble in wheat with

the price of wheat to the American
farmer 20 cents a bushel during 1926
and at the same time forced up the price
33 cents 4 bushel to starving millions In

Washington, ID. c., june o2.
Planning to produce crops. livestock
and other commodities valued at $20,-
ooO,000,000 this year. farmers of the
United States are considering pro-
posals for the establishment of a chain
of banks extending from coast to
coast. Secretary Charles Lyman of
the National Board of Farm Organiza-
tions. announced to-day.
Farmers and stock raisers from all
parts of the United States will meet
in Washington soon to discuss plans
sfor the banks. said Mr.. Lyman. The
conference will be called by President
Barrett of the National Board and OF
the Farmers Educational and Coopera-
tive Union.
would guarantee to farmers, the neces-
sary credit to carry on their business
without loss" said Mr.. Lyman. Farm
ers lost $1,000, 100000 last year princi-
pally because of inability to obtain
credit Other contributing causes of this
gigantic loss were profiteering by mid
dlemen. including speculative gambling
and arbitrary restriction of credit by
the Federal Reserve Board In other
words. farmers were forced into unnec-
essary deflation.
Farmers furnish one-half the money
on deposit in the nations banks. There
Is no reason why they could not supply
the capital necessary to set up a chain
of cooperative banks which would make
credit easy to obtain for carrying on ag-
ricultural work."
100000 to Back Plan.
The plan for a chain of banks will
receive the backing of the 100000
members of the National Board of Farm
Organizations. Mr.. Lyman said The
board now is circularizing farmers in all
sections. representatives in Congress,
bankers. Government officials and busi-
ness men with a statement of the finan-
cial needs of the farmers.
The story of the farmers losses as
told In this statement begins with an
explanation of the cost of distribution
of food, meat bearing animals. cotton
and other farm products. According to
the statement so cents out of each dollar
spent in the United States now goes to
pay transportation costs and into the
pockets of middlemen and dealers. The

troll in Hands of Victors.

Minneapolis George e. Leach was
elected mayor of Minneapolis by ma
jority of approximately 10000 votes
over his opponent, Thomas Van Lear.
This is a striking reversal of the
primary result, when Van Lear's plu-
rality over Leach was $500, but with
practically an even break against all
opponents. AS the result of an inten-
sive campaign, $4,000 additional regis
tration was secured since the primar-
les, the gain accruing largely to the
Leach forces.
The unofficial returns give George
e. Leach 1924 and Thomas Van Lear
63,337.
Leach Gains in Rivals Wards.
Leach gains came not only in the
former Leach territory, but in several
Van Lear strongholds. The swing to
Leach was apparent almost all over the
city. Even where the Van Lear

better percentage of gain than Var
Lear and on complete returns from
the Third, Seventh, Ninth and Tenth
wards he cut down the former Var
Lear margins, in spite of the big in
crease in the vote. Mr.. Van Leaf
again carried five wards, but he came
