 Rain cant stop New Britain boys from playing baseball as was evil denced yesterday in the boys league. Four teams battled away in a down pour with ono game being finished and the other being called tie. A mixup occurred in the Boys Club Nathan Hale game when the game was called in the seventh in ming. Umpire Kcnney had gone to get the pitcher of the Nathan Hale team who was going through the park and when he returned, all the Boys club players had left. Umpire Kenney called the game to play and when the Boys club team did not respond. he declared the game fore feited.
 Manager Dwight Skinner of the league, declared last night that he would not allow the forfeit because 1t would not be square shooting. lie stated that he would order the game replayed.
 He also said that he was going tc arrange 10 get regular umpires.

Has More Mileage Than Any
 Other Country

San Francisco, June l9,--Railroad electrihcation in America comprises between go and 25 percent of the worlds total railroad electrihcation. states the report of the Electrifca- ton Of Steam Railroads Committee presented 10 the National Electric Light Association convention here today,
 The total mileage of electrified railroads in all other countries Of the world is 4bo4 miles, Sweden l.Sding with "A France second with 659, Switzerland third with G36 miles. Germanys mileage Is only one mile less that that Of Switzerland. Then in succession come Italy with 56S miles, Australia with 54S miles, South Africa with I'll miles Chile with l4S miles, Norway with 125 miles, Spain with so miles. Japan with 4S miles, Canada with 3S miles, Java with 51 miles, Mexico with 30 miles, England with 2S miles and New Zealand with s miles. In the United States there IS a lit- tle more than 900 miles of electrified railroad. exclusive of terminals.
 In it's conclusions the committee report says:
 This country has been built up on rail transportation. We must sustain it and we have now come 10 the point where, if industry is to continue it's magnificent growth, tnnsportation's capacity must al- ways be its equal; there must be no charge laid to transportation thot 1t has been a cause of Its inhibition. Each and every individual in this country depends upon the success of transportation. The United States and every individual section of it must he accorded its natural growth; that it may attain it, we must face the fact that traffic is going to double, and double again.
 For the growth in traffic which no one who believes in the future of America will question. it IS ob- Nous that, 10 handle twice, and more than twice the volume of the present traffic, intensiication of the use of the present tracks and faci- lties is essential"
