REPORT STEEL WAGES
WILL RISE 10 PER CENT.
Advance for Common Labor
Run1ored in Pittsburgh.

Special Dispatch to THE NBw YosK HraALp.
PITTSBURGH, Oct. 21.-The report is
widely circulated that the big steel COM
panies will advance the wages OF COM
mon labor 10 per cent. November 1
in the hope OF remedying the serious
shortage of that class of worltmen. Most
Of the steel mills could operate at fully
10 per cent. greater capacity except for
their inability to get enough iaborers.
The immigration laws. which have
checked the flood of cheap foreign la
borers to this country. are believed to
have a direct bearing on the situation.
Mine operators and railroads are pay
ing higher wages than the steel mills
for common labor. and It Is realized by
the steel operators that to compete with
these other corporations they must
offer the same pay.
A prediction Is that tho stoel COM
panics will turn TO the negro if the
shortage of white labor becomes much
moro acute.

ARE BIDDING
FOR HIGHER BERTHS-
GIANT LEAD REDUCED

NEW YORK, Aug. The Pitts
burgh Pirates were in third place to-
day and making a bold bid for tie
higher berths held by the Giants and
Cardinals as a result r. a slugging
streak SURPRISING even he most VIC
lent batting outbursts this season and
rivalling the best on the record books.
BY taking a double victory from the
Phillies 1873 and 7-3, making it 10 in
a row, the larrupiag Corsairs brought
their hit and run total for the last
three games with the Quakers TO IS
and 43 respectively, giving the team a
batting average of .466 for the series.
They made % hits in the first game
and 81 and 10 in yesterdays contests.
A remarkable feature was the fact
that every member of the team con-
nected for at least one hit in each Of
the games. Reb Russell and Tierney
set the pace with 10 apiece, the for
mer turning in the high mark in the
first game of the double header with
five bingles, including two doubles
and a homer and five runs in as many
times at bat.

Fish and Game Laws
Being RigidIy Enforced

That fish and game laws are being
more rigidly enforced this year than
they were last year is indicated by
the increase in the number of arrests
for this cause, as given in a report of
George N. Mannfeld, superintendent
of fisheries and game. The report
was made public by John Holiday,
court reporter for the Wayne circuit
court and secretary of the newly or
gained Fish and Game association OF
Wayne county.
Persons who pay in their money for
fishing and hunting licenses are en-
titled to know what is being done with
the funds, and it is for that reason q
report is made, the letter states.
Bass planted il various parts of the
state from fish h~atcheries exceed
100000, although six weeks remain
in which to continue this work before
the fiscal year ends. Bass are worth
from $3.50 to SITS per thousand com.
mercially, and the value of the fish
planted in state waters will exceed
! 500, 900.

REDLEGS' SPLENDID
PLAY DROPS GIANTS
FIRST Time IN EAST

NEW YORK. Aug. 8. = Cincinnati
opened successfully against the Giants
at h Polo grounds Tuesday and with
the aid Of four large tallies IN the
tenth inning, won out z to 8. Eppa
Rixey was the Red hurler who was
effective with men on bases, although
he allowed 13 hits during the 10 inn
ings. All three Giant TALES were
home run hits.
Numerous boners were pulled by the
Giant infeld and helped the Redlegs
TO win. Bancroft was credited with
two errors, which proved very costly.
Wonderful throws by Burns and
Harper saved the day for the Moran
crew. Burns cut a runner off at the
plate with a beautiful throw in the
seventh inning. Harper was Iespon-
sible for another game saving peg.
This n was to second base, when
Cunningham tried to stretch his single
to right into a double. The throw
nipped him off second and prevented
him scoring, as Ryan connected for
a single as e. man up.
Hargrave Breaks Ice
Rixey and Nehf were both hurting
great ball until the fourth when Har-
grave broke the ice with a home run
into the left field stands. Rixey
stopped the Giants in their half of the
inning, and the weather threatened
rain. But, the rain held of and the
game continued.
Cinci let a chance to pile up a big
lead go by in the sixth when they had
the sacks loaded with none out. AS
it was they could score but one tally
and that was a lucky one. Burns was
safe on a tumble by Bancroft, and
DalDert and Duncan followed with
singles. Harper bounced to the box
and Burns was forced at the plate.
Fonseca's grounder toward third base
was so slow that Groh did not have
time to head off Daubert at the plate,
and the run counted while the runner
was being thrown out at first.
Homers Fall to Help
New York's homers came in the
sixth, seventh and ninth innings, but
that was all they amounted to, just
a record of circuit swats.

20 per cent efficient; his right, as
far as the timing and. delivery of

misses five shots out of six owing to
telegraphy and a few kindred faults.
He might hace improved his shin
ing hours in the u. S. A. by taking
some lessons in The art of boxing.
But he didn't. For Firpo came to this
country suspicious and distrustful

He managed himself. He got three
fights and knocked out his three dub
foemen-Salior Maxted, Joe Mccain
and Jack Herman. 1t was about a

QUESTION OF DEMPSEY
FIGHT IN INDIANA Up
TO ATTORNEY GENERAL
(Bv Associated presgl

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 9.-Whether
holding of the proposed heavyweight
championship bout between Jack
Dempsey and Bill Brennan at Michi-
gan City, Ind, will be permitted prob
ably viii be determined after an in
depreciation is placed on the Indiana
boxing law by the attorney general OF
Indiana, it was learned today. If the
attorney general finds contest consti-
tutes a prize fight, it will be prohib.
tied. Governor McCray announced,
stating that the Indiana law permits
boxing contests, but prohibits prize
fights.
Shortly after it became known that
negotiations were being carried on for
the holding of the bout at Floyd Fitz
simmons Michigan City arena, the
governor asked Attorney General Lesh
and some other attorneys to investi
| gate the difference between prize
fights and boxing matches, as defined

ion.
Mccray Opposes Bout
Governor McCray is known to be
/ opposed to the bout being held in the
state, having previously announced hi:
opposition to such a contest. There
has been some question among per
sons interested, however, as to wheth
er the executive has the power t
place a ban on the match as long a!
it comes under the class of exhibi
tons termed boxing contests.
officials connected with the attor
ney generals office did not indicate
when a definition of the provisions o
the law would be given by the attorne!
general. Meanwhile considerable dis
cusSion is being aroused in boxing
circles as to the manner in which thu
decision will affect other Indiana cite
where boxing is being conducted.
Hard to Decide Status
One attache of the attorney general
Office gave it as his unofficial opinion
that it would be impossible to pas
judgment on a contest until the prin
cipals were in action. Then if tn,
bout ceased to be a Scientific exhibi
ton Of ~isticuffs" he said, or become
brutal combat" the authorities coul
declare it a prize fight and stop tn
contest.
Others we're Of the opinion that cor
tests as they are held under present
day rules do not constitute what /
known as a prize fight.
Heretofore it has been left up t
local authorities to determine whethe
contests accord with the state law, an
