HUME WINS
Butler Batters Unable to Solve the
Pitching of Ruchaber Who
Holds, Them to Three
Hits.

Ruchaber, pitching for Hume in
Sundays game against Butler, had a
slight advantage over Close, the But
Ter hurler, and that just about eN-
plains, the defeat of the locals, al
though neither OF the Hume scores
were earned.
The Butler team had been strength
ened by the addition OF Williams at
short, Luscomb behind the bat and
Close in the pitchers box. Close
pitched good ball and deserved to
win Hume started scoring i'll the
fiji st. Addy, first man up, was safe
al first when Ellis let Williams as
sist get away from him. Hickman,
the next man up rolled an easy
grouner to Close who threw to sec
ond for a double play, but the TIM
pirc called both runners safe. and
Addy then scored on Leggtt's two

went to third while Duncan was be-

when after long run Hupp dropped
Addy's long fly.
Butler made their lone tally in the
second when Grims9ey found Rucha-
Der for a two base hit; went to third
OF Payton's sacrifice and scored when
Hupp rolled all easy groundcr to
Duncan who threw to the plate to
catch Grimsley but the Hume catcher
i,t the ball get away from h,m and
the run was in.
Outside of the good pitching the
game was featureless. The fielding
was good but two OF Buffers errors
resulted in runs IS their errors came
at nopportunc times.
Next Sunday the game will be be-
tW cen the old rivals, Rich Hill and
Butler, and there il, no doubt but that
the game will be fought al the way

the strengthening Of one or two weak
spots and the team should go better.

MEANS HIGHER PRICED
SHOES
Representative Halves Analyses Pro-
posed Duty on Hides.

Washington, Juune 22.-lhe shoe
bill of the people OF Missouri would
be $4,oS4 1866 year higher if the duty
on hides proposed in the tariff bill
is approved, Representative Halves OF
St. Louis sad today in analyzing the
effect OF this tariff schedule. The
farmers would reap little benefit, but
tie packers would, the Missouri con-
gresham said.
The hide schedule is one Of the
storm centers of the bill, before the
senate and it now looks as if it would
be defeated over the committees rec
.cmmendatien, and hides, shoes, har-
ness and leather would be put on the
free list.
Repre- sentative Hawes has reduced
the schedule to simple terms i'll the
following statement. nt.-----..--.,--4
"A duty of 2 cents a pound OH
green hides and a cents pound on
dressed hides, such as is proposed
ii: the tariff bill now pending in the
senate, is the equivalent Of more than
IS per cent ad valorem and would
produce an estimated revenue of 10
million dollars. But it would cost
the citizens of our country 1872 mil
lion dollars annually on $50 million
pairs OF shoes.
This duty will tax mans shoes,
his belt, his hatband, his razor strop,
his trunk, his horses harness, his
cows halter, his dogs collar, his att
tomobile's upholstery, the belt that
n.ovea his machinery, his leather
pocketbook and most Of all, his pa
t:ence.
THE advocate OF the duty on hides
may advise shooting the dog, wearing
shoes, or going barefooted.
He could not escape from the other
things.
The population OF Missouri is S.
4cAO55 Each person using three
pairs Of shoes at an increased cost or
~ cents pair would put tota4 shoe
tax on Missouri OF $4,oS4,So6. 1t
would put siloe tax on 81. LOUIS OF
!; o27 5000, would put a total shoe
tax upon the citizens of my congress
sional district OF $2oS,o2o and upon
tine United States, 1872 million dollars.
The American Farm Bureau Fed
GRAFTON, one OF the most powerful OF
tic farm organizations, filed with the
sc:latc finance committee brief con-
tanning its opposition to duty on
h dcs. 1t had this to say:
Since two-thirdI of the domestic
hides are taken off by packers and
hey also control about one-third OF
the tanning business, they are i'll a
position to be dominant factor IN
lie hide and Rather market. AT any
given time they have a large part OF
he stock of hides under their control
and are in a position to sell Or with
,old them from the markets al they
choose.

MINE WAR TOLL, "a
Tales by Surviving Defenders Show
Terrible Methods Used to
KILL

Carbondale, ILL.,, June 2a.-Bloody
Williamson County, heart OF thu
Southern Illinois coal mining dis
trict, has smeared another red sp!otcl
over the name that has clung to i
since it'd vendettas of the early Sos.
At least twenty-ninc non-uniol
miners, probably more than forty
have met horrible deaths at the hands
Of striking union mob.
The strip mine of the Southern Hi
rcis Coal Company, eight miles
northwest of Marion and scene of the
glirnest industrial clash in the history
OF the state, is in RUNS Tracks,
buildings and hundreds of thousands
OF dollars worth of equipment were
dynamited as today's battle closed
shortly before noon, amid the hilar-
ious whoops of two thousand blood
drunk miners and the adnliring
plaudits OF their women,
But reports tonight from Herrin
from which the deadly assault was
directed indicated that soberness was
setting in
Col. Samuel N. Hunter, returning
to Marion from Herrin as the repre-
sentative of Adj. Gen. Carlos Black,
said state troops had not been or
dered out and would not be unless
requested by local authorities.
Before noon today thirteen bullet
ridden bodies were to be counted in
the timber fled two miles southeast
of Herrin, where the vanquis'lled
workers, already battered and bleed
ing, had been herded into a clearing
like cattle in a roundup and shot i'll
their tracks.
Squatted near the group OF thirteen
was fourteenth. He breathed. Sit
ting bolt upright, he surveyed ap-
preaching newspaper men with un-
seeing eyes. He was Sobblng softly,
his clothing torn to shreds, matted in
blood. SO he sat for minutes, then
he toppled back dead.
Many union men who witnessed
the massacre, but who were sNekened
by the awful spectacle talked freely
tonight, Seeming thus to gain relief
for overwrought nerves.
The mine safe was looted and one
man, with some $500 in bills. stood
with a aemi-cirle Of men around him
and dealt out the bills like cards, ac-
ccrding to wounded men who were
there.
The correspondent saw men
wounded almost to death, kicked
around in the scorching sun in dusty
reads. He saw men chased through
fields like rabbits by shouting per-
sons who opened fire, once catching
hnn accidentally between two fires.
Surrounded by armed men, he saw a
knife plunged into the throat of a
wounded man who, in his dying
breath, gasped a plea: In the name
Of my mother, in the name OF your
mother, in the name of our Cod give
1re water" only to receive laughs and
gibes such as: Where you're going
you w,n't see water as a reply.
Mothers carried babies into the
morgues and up to pies Of bodies in
the roads with such remarks as:
Take look at what your papa did,
kid"
He watched man walk Up to the
bedside OF dying man and curse
him and jeer at him' asl he breathed
his last. Through it ALL although the
fight area was traversed a dozen
times, there was not word heard OF
sympathy for victim. The senti-
n.ent seemed to be that strike break
ers deserved slaughter and that these
hid received it.
