GIANTS SHUT
OUT INDIANS

In the closing game, Of the Copper
league schedule the Ell Paso Giants
copped 6 to shutout victory from
the Juarez Indians, at FL Paso,
Labor day.
Louie Green, the Texas College of
Mines, all around star, pitched daz-
zlihg, ball for El Paso and was the
master throughout. He limited the
Indians to four hits, all of them
singles and would clamp down like
clam whenever Juarez threatened
to- score. The Indians succeeded in
getting men around to third base,
but failed to bring them home.
Cecil Coombs and his Giants met
Preacher Munns, their former mate,
with a steady shower of base hits
and seemed to like his offerings.
They clipped the tall preacher for a
total of Is ripe hits. The little
Giant skipper led the batting assault,
securing three hits in as many times
up, and was responsible for the two
scores in the. third inning.

but Rickard cut the request in half
because of the heavy demand.

Motor Service Hits Railways.

Passenger revenues of New Zealand
railways are said to be much affected
by the competition of privately owned
motor services operating on parallel
routes. In the neighborhood of We'll
lington alone some 80 cars are operat-
ing on routes from Is to 125 miles in
length, the main services being from
Wellington to Wanganui. Ostensibly
catering to intertown traffic, 1t actual
ly does a little more than one-tifth
interior traffic as against four-f1fths
through traffic. The quicker service
and cheaper rates charged, added to
the fact that connections with other
bus lines are conveniently made. has
diverted traffic from the railways.

MICE PREFER STARVATION
TO A DIET OF MATCHES
Upset Old Theory-Miniature Pile
Driver Used to Test Safety
of Devices.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July IA match is
a match to most every one, but to the
expert there is wide difference be-
tween a safe and dangerous match.
At the Underwriters Laboratories
here, where tests are made of thou
sands of devices and materials to pre-
vent fires, a miniature pile driver
daily pounds away on matches
The little weight falls on the side Of
the match head. If the match blazes
it Is reported unsafe. The require
ment is that it must be lighted only
by friction at the end of the head.
Another device tests the strength Of
the match stick to make sure it is
strong enough to stand ordinary
rough usage. Else striking may
break the stick and cause the burning
head to fall. 1t also is determined
whether the match will burn its COM
plete length without breaking off and
if breaking off. the spark dies immedf-
ately.
Matches and mice often appear to-
gether in stories of fires. Engineers
decided to make q test. Several mice
were put in a cage and given nothing
to eat but matches. The rats did not
gnaw the matches and finally had to
be released before they starved to
death.

Auditor Smith could get from the
dealers books sufficient information
to show this spread separately for
each kind of coal. The dealers.
through Attorney Roger j. Whiteford,
argued that they had to compute
the expense of handling coal on an
average and they did not see how
the auditor could allocate operating
expenses properly among the several
classes of coal handled by dealer.
Well" said Senator Glass, per
haps the auditor will find that such
ALLEGATIONS cannot be made. If it is
impossible to get, then the auditor
can come back and advise the COM
mittee to that effect. But I see no
reason why you shouldn't try to pro-
coed on that basis"
The dealers agreed to try to work
out the report on that basis and the
agreement was accepted.
Auditor Smith could not predict how
long it will take him to complete his
report, but it is certain 1t will not
be ready before the adjournment of
Congress.
Under the agreement Auditor Smith
and Mr. Whiteford will agree on the
group of dealers from whom informa-
ton will be obtained, but the reports
will carry letter designations, so that
the names will not have to be placed
in the record.

The bill was approved Tuesday

When 1t came back to the House

ALLEGATION of Cost Difficult.

THE foregoing exposition of the
books and records to be made in order
that the committees accountants may
verify the statements to be furnished
as above stated, and further to enable
said accountants to obtain the pur
chase price, expenses and average
sale prices, by grades, of coal"
Questions asked by committee mem.
bers yesterday afternoon disclosed
that the main factor on which the
committee wants information is
whether the spread between the price
at the mine and the price at the con-
sumers door is too wide. This means
a report showing what the coal cost
at the mine, the freight rate, and
the several items of expense that en-
ter into 1t before it is dumped at the
curb of the customer.
The only point on which there was
any hitch yesterday was whether
