withhold warrants for the governor"
Judge Smith adjourned court until
the September term, which begins
September 5.
Sheriff Mester indicated immediate
ly after receipt of the opinion that
he would Immediately notify the gov
ernor that he held the warrants but
that mo attempt would be made to
embarrass the chief executive"
Cannot Call Troops
The opinion of Judge Smith also
ruled that it was beyond the scope of
the governors power to call state
troops to shield him from arrest"
The judge developed his opinion as
follows:
That there is no such thing in 1lli-
nois as the divine right of kings and
that the king has no counterpart in
Illinois.
That it is beyond the scope of the
governors power to call state troops
to shield him from arrest.
That Governor Small, despite his
position, is subject to arrest and
prosecution for his acts as state treas
urer.
That the statutes of limitation
would expire through any prolonged
delay in serving warrants on the gov
ernor
That it is not the duty of the court
to withhold warrants for the COVER
nor; that Governor Small should be
permitted to voluntarily present him
self before the court
No Physical Resistance
Governor Len Small's resistance If
attempts are made to arrest him today
| on warrants charging him with en-
bezzlement of state funds, will not be
| physical, it was said at the executive
| offices. Early today there were no
state troops called out to shield the
governor from Sheriff Mester and his
| deputies.
| Instead, it was said, the governor is
i prepared to say that as chief executive
of the state, he refuses to submit to
arrest.
County authorities gave no ind.ca
! tion today that they will attempt to
use force in taking Governor Small
| into court.
Case May Rest
| If the governor refuses to follow the
lead of Lieut. Governor Sterling and
| Vernon Curtis, by appearing in court
| to arrange bonds, it was predicted to-
day that the case will rest in that
| condition until States Attorney Nor
timer and his aides are ready to pro-
! coed with the embezzlement and con-
| spiracy cases.
| Company c, Fourth Illinois infantry,
| which was recently issued new equip

last night for drill and inspection.
Officers of the company declared that

spection, but in some quarters, the
presence of soldiers in the arsenal on
the eve of Judge Smiths opinion on
the proposed arrest of Governor Small
was regarded as significant.

DISPUTED STEAMERS
CHANGE HANDS AGAIN;
AMERICA TO LEAVE
(By Associated Press)

NEW YORK, July 26-Restored to
at least temporary control of the nine
big ocean liners seized by the United
States shipping board for alleged
violations of contract, the United
States Mail Steamship company
planned to start one of the ships, the
America, for Cherbourg and Bremen
at noon today.
Supreme Court Justice Burr re-
stored the steamers to their charter
ers yesterday by means of temper
ary injunction restraining shipping
board officials from interfering with
the United States mail steamship COM
pany's possession of them, pending a
further hearing on Thursday.
Hold Special Hearing
Elmer Schlesinger, counsel for the
shipping board, induced Justice Burr
to hold a second hearing at his club
last night on a motion to vacate the
restraining order. Justice Burr, how
ever, denied the application after ex-
tended arguments and warned Mr..
Schlesinger against permitting any of
his agents to violate the restraining
order
Following this hearing, Mr. Schles-
singer recalled United States deputy
marshals whom he had placed on
board the nine steamers when he
seized them last Friday. The United
American Lines to which the seized
steamers had been temporarily allo-
Gated by the board, also took cogniz-
ance of Justice Burr's order by sus-
pending further bookings for the
America and for the George Washing,
ton, scheduled to sail on August g.

MOROCCAN REPORTS
ARE LESS ALARMING;
SPAIN IS IN CONTROL

MADRID, July 26.-Official mess
ages filtering through from Morocco
last night and early this morning as
sumo less alarming tone in telling of
the recent fighting between Spanish
troops and Moorish tribesmen in the
Melilla area.
Spanish reinforcements under COM
mand of General navarro have left Me-
lila for Sididris, where a fierce battle
is said to be progressing favorably for
the Spanish, In addition to these re-
inforcements. a brigade of hussars has
been sent to the troubled area from
Spain.
General Berenguer, the high COM
missioner in Morocco, issued state
ment yesterday saying that the troops
near the coast are receiving support
from several warships. He added that
the declarations of loyalty to Spain
are being received from many quar-.
ters and that the situation was i'm
proving rapidly.
25,ooo Troops in Field
An official communication issued
last night says the total number OF
Spanish forces in the Melilla zone has
been raised TO $4,000. Between Nadol
and Zeluan groups of Spaniards con
tinue to resist the Moors and hold
their positions.
Some of the occupants of the sea
shore towns have gone aboard tht
warships. General Sanjurio has com
municated from his advanced position
that the work of fortifcation has beer
completed.
The government has decided to es
tablish a censorship over all war dis
patches. 1t also purposes to begin al

is to sell 100000 900 in bonds. This
S100,000,000 will not come directly
from the treasury but will come from
the people.
Nevertheless just to that extent 1t
will make it less possible for the
treasury to sell its own bonds to the
public. will increase the rate of inter-
the market for the money and will add
to the existing initiation.
Measure Defective
These are the defects in the organi-
zation of the relief which the Norris
bill proposes in the subsequent func-
tion of the relief that are further
economic defects.
II is proposed that the corporation
10 be formed by the Norris bill shall
buy and sell farm products.
Everybody knows that the buying
of the farm products by the govern
ment will come very easy but that the
selling OF these products will come
very hard.
II there was a market for these pro-
ducts a government institution would
not be needed Markets are always
sought out more easily and effectively
by private agencies than by govern
ment agencies. What would happen
would be the loading up by the gov
eminent of an immense mass of farm
products.
Price Fixing involved
Furthermore the experience OF SINH
lar agencies during the war makes it
clear that the institution contemplated
by the Norris bill would necessarily
have 10 be accomplished by a system
of price fixing.
The administration has been giving
thought to some way of finding re,iet
for the farmers which shall be free
from the defects in the Norris.
II is probable that if the administra-
tion does anything it will take the
form of recommending an extension
of the powers of the War Finance cor
poration. The War Finance corpora
tion Is now limited TO loaning money
for the purpose of facilitating exports
very slight broadening of the
powers of the War Finance corpora
tion would enable il to loan money OF
farm products for which orders have
not vet been received. This would
give relief to the farmers without in
volving the government in the owner
ship of great quantities of materials
and without putting the government ir
the position in which government is
nearly always a failure, namely ir
the position of a merchant trying tC
sell goods.
The administration is obviously con
cerned by the state of the farmers

COLLEGIANS STEALING BASES
Thorne Murphy Stole Fourteen Bags
in Sixteen Games for Yale
Other Star Features.

Base stealing is regarded as an art
temporarily lost in the major leagues.
The seasons batting averages for col
lege players would indicate that among
the cOllegians base stealing is still in
dulged in.
Thorne Murphy, a son of the late
Mike Murphy, playing 16 games for
Yale, stole IA bases. He was not
thrown out in any attempt to steal,
and he was the ranking base runner
Of the college field.
In all the leading eastern colleges
there were SO men that batted 300
or better, and few games were de-
cided by long scores. There was
plenty of good pitching.
One hundred and nine regulars Of
leading college teams were able to
gather only p home runs during the
season and no collegian made more
than two fOur-base hits in 1921.

Eastern football men for years have
been confronted by the problem of
overcoming tight lines of opponents.
Even Harvard, supposed to be one of
the best teams in the country, found
Princeton's line too much for it last
year and to tie the game, resorted to
clever forward passing. 1t was be-
cause the East has been slow in TAX
Ing up the pass-as shown by the
strong antagonism against the play at
every rule meeting-that Harvard sue
ceeded so well as it did.
That the East could overcome
strongly trained lines by trick play
and other thrusts indicates, possibly,
stronger attack than the Middle
West has developed, taken season
after season.
Football Intricate In West
The conference, taking to the for
ward pass as the line of least resist
ance, developed this highly. 1t went
farther, 1t developed plays to disguise
the throwing of the ball. In this
way, the development of regular line
piercing or rounding plays and the so
called curtain plays to cover a forward
pass, meant that the usual number of
tricks taught team ranged from 20
to 30, writes Fred A. Hayner in the
the Chicago Daily News.
The East handicapped by the ten
yard rule and the removal of the

line piercing in earnest, until now it
