 MUCH OF GRIMES

CHICAGO, IL, Jan. 9-Manager Rogers Hornsby of the Chicago Cubs expects Burleigh Grimes, the spitball pitching veteran he ob- tained from the St. Louis Cardi- nals, to win at least fifteen games for the Cubs the coming season. Grimes took the transfer philo- sophically, when told of the deal.
 NO matter where I am," he said, I'll pitch just as hard to win as I've pitched in the past for Pittsburgh, New York, Brooklyn, Boston and St. Louis. It's all in the game"

Juneau high school boys basket ball team in the Juneau high achcol gymnasium last evening de- feated the Douglas high school hoop quintette by a score of 18 to Is. The result surprised many fol- lowers of the indoor sport, predic- tions relative to the game having generally favored Douglas.
 The contest was ding-dong affair, requiring an over time period to determine the winner. Both teams were fast. Juneau checked to better advantage and made the most of natural breaks. Douglas was favored in weight and heighth.
 Two Out of Commission
 Each of the quintettes tcok the floor with star player missing. Thomas Redlingshafer, Juneau guard, has bad knee that is likely to keep him out of the game for the rest of the season. Rex Fox, Douglas forward, IS also nursing a leg injury that may possibly in capacitate him for the remainder of the season.

ANDES RAILROAD
ENDS OPERATION
High Tariffs of Argentina and
Chile Force Line to Aban-
don Service.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated PreSS.
MENDOZA, Argentina, April 20-The
world-famous Transandine Railroad,
which links the Atlantic and the Pa
cif1c over the Andes, two miles above
the sea, was abandoned today
Tariff walls which have have sprung
up between Argentina and Chile, each
struggling to maintain its business in
times Of economic distress, have halted
the trains over the 155 miles Of mar
rcw-gauge track and have terminated a
60-year battle of engineering against
the forces of nature.
Chile and Argentina are committed
stubbornly to the prevention Of foreign
imports, even from each other in their
fight for economic survival, and the re-
sulting retaliatory duties have killed off
the freight traffic which sustained the
transandine line. It's British admins
traitors suspended its operation today
rather than continue indefinitely at
loss of $4,000 month.
Both Governments Interested.
Both governments are financially IN
terested in the line, at least indirectly.
and they deplore the stoppage Of traffic
on the line, but they feel that their in
tereSts require policies of domestic self
sufhciency which are inconsonant with
the free movement of commerce over
the mountains.
The people have refused to believe
that railroad so costly and seemingly
so indispensable to both nations actually
would be deserted, but its executives
insist that only a drastic change in
governmental policies can bring about
resumption of traffic, and they believe
the prospect for such a change is bleak.
The chief blow at the roads business
from Argentina to Chile. Intergovern-
mental conferences were held up to
midnight last night, but they failed to
arrive at solution.
William WheelWright presented the
question of the possibility of a trans
andine railway before the Royal Geo.
graphic Society in London in 1860. In
1873 John and Matthew Clark obtained
concessions and built the line across
the Pampas from Buenos Aires TO Men
doza. Then they started the Chilean
portion of the road.
Line Completed in 1910.
In spite of financial vicissitudes
which the two governments helped to
solve, the actual transandine link from
Mendoza to Los Andes, Chile, was COM
pleted in 1910 with the construction of
a 197-nile tunnel under the interna-
tional border at an altitude Of 1882
feet.
Cog wheeled engines, gripping saw
toothed track between the rails, pulled
the trains up the 8 per cent grades.
Snowfalls and avalanches halted oper-
alton Of trains 697 days during the
first nine years, but after that the de-
fenses against these troubles kept the
traffic regular.
Passenger trains operated twice a
week between Buenos Aires and Santi-
ago, Chile The fare was about 35
cents mile over the transandine sec
ton proper.

BY the Associated Press.


CADIZ, Ohio, April 2O.-Fresh dis
turbanceS broke out today in the East
ern Ohio coal fields, where miners are
on strike against wage reductions.
A mysterious explosion shook the viii
lage of Jewett, 10 miles north of here,
about l am, but apparently did no
damage.
Sixty miles to the south, in Noble
County, nearly 200 strike sympathizers
a few hours later attempted unsuccess-
fully to prevent 200 non-strikers from
going to work at the Caldwell mine,
near Caldwell The strikers were dis
persed by Sheriff Clayton Mckee and
six deputies with a machine gun, al
though no shots were fired.
A group of strikers was reported ear
lter on the march in Guernsey County,
but authorities there were unable to To-
cate them.
Six shots were fired near the Tasa
mine, a short distance from Jewett,
but National Guardsmen at the shaft
reported no one was hit. They were
unable to discover who did the Shoot
ing.
The explosion was possibly a short
distance outside the village. Its exact
locality was undetermined, but a
check Of nearby mines showed none of
them was touched.
The National Guard troops had anti
aircraft guns in position in the Cadiz
sector today to prevent any attempts of
an airplane bombing of the mines.
These weapons were set up after an
unidentified plane few low over the
Somers mine, scene Of recent rioting,
and dropped an object near the tipple.
Meanwhile State officials hastened the
preparation of plan for peaceful set
tlement of the strike Gov. White ex-
pressed belief the plan would be ac-
ceptable to both miners and operators,
and that the time is near when both
sides will be willing Ito listen to rea-
SON"
The strike spread to another mine in
the Eastern field today. Three hundred
union picketS appeared at daybreak at
the Warner Galleries Co. pit north of
Steubenville and succeeded in convinc-
ing IS working miners that they should
strike. The mine. owned by Cleveland
interests. had been working fairly
steadily.

The charge that William Wolff Smith,
general counsel Of the Veterans Bureau,
was a "membr of a clique" that has
been robbing the Government for a
number of years" was made today be-
fore the House Military Committee by
Representative Blanton. Democrat, of
Texas
Blanton is author Of bill to remove
Smith as counsel of the bureau. Smith
collapsed under questioning by the COM
mittee last Saturday and a physician
testified today he was still unable to
appear for further questioning.
Loses His Memory.
The physician, H. w. Baxley, psy-
chiatrist at Mount Alto Hospital, said
Smith was weeping and quite agitated"
when he was admitted to the hospital
Committee members questioned DR..
Baxlev closely about Smiths condition.
The psychiatrist said Smith was suffer
ing from some loss of memory.
Blanton asked whether "a shrewd
LAWYER might pleItIlu llG NdS III Udu
mental state if he knew evidence was
coming" which would destroy his stand
ing and integrity.
Couldn't he pretend ir case like
that?" Blanton asked.
Baxley answered he did not think
Smith was pretending. He added it
might be several weeks before Smith
could testify again.
Would Return Pay.
In addition to his salary as counsel
for the bureau, Smith is drawing
monthly allowance for disabilities.
Blanton has charged his ailments are
not due to Army service.
At the committee hearing last week
Smith offered to return his disability
pay to the Government in the future
if the committee thought he was not
entitled to it.
Representative Stafford, Republican,
of Wisconsin, told Blanton he had
heard since the last committee meet
ing that Smith got his place through
political influence.
Have you any information about
that?' he asked the Texan.
Yes" Blanton answered. do you
want me to give it to you noW?"
Stafford answered that he would hear
it later at an executive session of the
committee.

GAINS FOR HOOVER
SEEN IN JERSEY
Wet Stand Has Helped Him
There as RooseveIt's Co.
Iumbus Speech Hurt.
BY EDWARD M. GILROY.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

TRENTON, N. j., September 10
Republican candidates and party lead
ers are greatly encouraged in New
Jersey over the gain in sentiment re-
Gently for President Hoover and the
Republican administration. They are
confident this definite trend will con-
tinue without cessation until election
and will carry the State for the Re-
publican ticket.
From discouraged group of poll
ticians seeking only to salvage some
thing for their local tickets, most Re-
publican chieftains now believe they
have at least an even chance of win
ming.
With this chance they are willing to
go out and work, whereas two months
ago they conceded defeat and intended
to save themselves the expense and
effort of campaigning.
President Hoover's wet acceptance
speech has helped him considerably
here. Conversely Gov. Roosevelt's IS
Columbus address with its mention of
Federal control for the Stock Exchange
did not help him in State having so
many Of its interests tied up with Wall
Street and so-called big business.
Democratic politicians declare that
the personal appearance of Alfred E
Smith in New Jersey and an exhortatior
by him to support the ticket Is neces-
sary for Roosevelt's chances. This feel
ing was clearly visible at the monster
reception Mayor Frank Hague, State
leader, staged for Roosevelt at Seagirt.
Great as the crowd was it was discern
ible they were not strong for Roosevelt
personally. Hague's lieutenants have
declared Smith should come into the
State and aid Hague's position out of
at Chicago for Smith.

SOCIALISTS ARE ACTIVE

Members of Party Circulating Peti-

November Balloting.

Special Dispatch to The Star.

RALEIGH, N. c.. September 10
With speaking campaigns of the two
major parties delayed by unseasonably
warm weather, the Socialist party,
heretofore unorganized in this State,
has furnished the bulk of political
activity during the past week, trying to
get 10000 signatures to put their elec-
tors on the ballot.
To date the Republicans have been
more active than the Democrats. Ma
tional Committeeman Charles A. Jonas
who was elected to Congress IN 1923,
was defeated in 1880 and is making
his third attempt this year, has
widened the breach between State
party leaders and President Hoover
Previously the State leaders had an
nounced that they would not go along
with the President on prohibition but
would retain their bone dry attitude
Now. Mr.. Jonas has declared firmly for
immediate payment in cash of the SOL
diers bonus, thus splitting both with
his own national leaders and the in
cumbent Representative, Maj. A. l..
Bulwinkle. who is a prominent mem
ber Of the American Legion, but who
voted against the immediate payment
of the monus in the last session of
Congress.
