Whatever doubt may exist as to the
Gibraltars' title would be removed IL
they won today, or II they lose, when
the series executive committee takes
action tonight to settle several argu-
ments.
Settle Disputes Tonight.
One Of these disputes hinges on a
game the Gibraltars won from the
Shamrocks several days ago which
Umpire Tommy Crooks forfeited to
the Gibraltars because Of difficulty
over the handling Of a crowd on
Randle field. ~.
The executive committee tonight
probably will rule out Crooks decision
ON the forfeit and declare the game to
have been called in the fifth inning.
at which time the Gibraltars were
leading. There is extremely small
possibility the teams win be ordered to
meet again in any way, shape OF form.
Another dispute concerns the calling
OF Saturdays game between the Sham.
rocks and Winstons before darkness.
The Shamrocks won, to !, but &C
cording to many authoritative wit
nesses sthe contest could have been
continued.
Jett Hits EN- Hard.
Today's game is the last in the inter
sectional play-off series Of the un-
limited class. Here's how the teams
stand now:

HAYS ANNOUNCES.
new AIR mail CUT
New York-'Frisco Route Only
Retained in Plans for
Coming Year.

For reasons Of economy and op-
Grafton dificulties all the air mail
routes except the trans-continental
line from New York to San Fran
cisco will be abandoned. Postmaster
General Hays announced yesterday.
when the air mail service was
nrst organized" said Mr.. Hays. 'it
was planned that it would be
rapidly extended in various direc-
tions and the New York-Washing-
ton, st. Paul-Chicago-St. Louis
routes were TO be parts of airways
that would extend from the north
ern part Of the United States TO
the southern part.
AT present. due to the need for
economy and lack of necessary ap-
preparations no further extension
of the air mail service is possible
and on that account the department
does not feel justified in attempt
ing to continue operating these
short foutes. which are very expen-
sive and do not materially improve
the mail. service over service that
is in effect on the fast trains. II

not geographical divisions. have a
tendency to accomplish the same
purpose.
1T has been stated by an author
ity on railways, Ihat Washington
occupies a unique position in being
the only city in the United States
that has two competing railways
that charge S cents a ride in spite
OF the fact that one of them would
rather reduce its fare to five cents.
This, of course. is not what most
people understand as competition
but most people do not understand
the merger que stion.
The object of this merger is to
add one good railway to one that
is not so good and get something
that will benefit the public as a
