ADMIRAL At BEST,
KURTS|NGER SAYS
Jockey Claims Seabiscuit
Will Take Bad Beating
in PimIico Special.
By the Associated Press.

~ inc ASSoclate0 Press.
BALTIMORE, Oct. 28.-Fast-step-
ping Seabiscuit was served notice to-
day that unless he does some mighty,
mighty fast stepping right from the
start OF things in his race with War
Admiral Tuesday. he will be q very,
very sorry second at the end of
things.
And Of course, added Charley Kurt
singer. he (Seabiscuit) will be second
In the two-horse race anyway; Kurt
singer was just suggesting that the
Biscuit get going right away in order
to be in sight when War Admiral roars
across the finish line.
Confident Kurtsinger is the Jockey
who will be astride the Admiral in
the 3-l6 miles showdown with Sea-
biscuit at Pimlico, and how does he
feel about his mount?
War Admiral Is the best horse to
come to the races in the last decade
He never really has been extended in
a race during the past two years. The
Admiral is in a class by himself"
That's how Kurtsinger feels.
The veteran, spill-scarred Jockeys
statement brought the impending
clash Of turfdoms mightiest to some
thing Of q verbal impasse.
Because only yesterday little George
Woolf, noted jockey who will ride Sea-
biscuit, was saying: Its a pipe for
the Biscuit = = know my horse,
and we will be there in front when the
time comes to judge the finish."

sociation must be in the hands Of the
association Nominating Committee by
next Monday and will be announced
shortly thereafter for the election
slated for December l.
With Mrs. Ralph w. Payne, three.
time president of the association, fixed
in her determination not to run again.
| the women who have. gone on the as.
sumption that Mrs. Payne again
would be candidate for the presi.
dency have become convinced they
must search for a new head for tho
association.
No Agreement on Successor.
So far few of the clubs have held
their meetings and have named their
states for the association Nominating
Committee to digest and form a slate
which will be the consensus Of the
five clubs which this year do the NOM
mating job. Grapevine rumors have
1t that there is no agreement among
the clubs on the choice of successor
to Mrs. Payne, and at least three
candidates have come out of the meet
lngs Of the club committees.
The situation is practically without
precedent in womens golf around
Washington and for the first time in
years political moves are being made
IN favor of the candidates. Hereto.
fore the clubs have been in virtual
agreement long before the time for
nominations closed on the new head
OF the association, but there Is no
such agreement this year
Several favored prospects cannot
accept the post for personal reasons.
Mrs. Payne, who has held it three
years, explains that the post of presi.
dent OF the association takes a lot of
time. Il cannot imagine any woman
accepting who wouldn't be willing to
give up great deal of time to the
work. she says.
Has Many and Varied Duties.
For example, the president Is re.
CURED to attend all the tournaments
ana to present prizes. She also Is
expected, in addition to these affairs.
to sit in on the arrangement of all
mterclty matches, to settle any oues-
tlons that may arise and to generally
function in an executive capacity in
all Women's golf matters.
The new president may be faced
with the job of organizing the femi-
nine golfers Of the city to handle tho
details of the national women's cham.
plonship. If it comes to Congress
sional-as is expected-in 1899. the
women's association will have many
little jobs to perform, among them
entertainment, arranging of accomo-
dations for competitors and the many
little matters that come up in con.
nectlon with major tourney.

A bill providing an emergency
appropriation of $173,Ooo to meet
the needs of the Federal Bureau
of Investigation for the balance
of the fiscal year. was introduced
in Congress today by Representa-
tive Fred L. Crawford (RO OF
Michigan.
The bill follows the exclusive
revelation py The Washington
Times last week that the FB1
was so crippled by lack of fumes
that a number of field offices had
keen closed and half the agents
placed on furlough.
In urging immediate action on
the measure, Mr.. Crawford said;
"If the underworld strikes
while half of our national force
of Omen are away on enforced
furloughs, the wrath of the ma
ton will be heaped on Congress.
This is not the hour to quib-
bic about which branch of gov
ernment is to blame for the
deficit in FBI funds. Our prob
lem is to get these men back
on the job at the very earliest
minute.
The hoodlums won't call
truce or take a furlough while
we delay an emergency appro-
priation."

Senator Wagner CD of New
York, chairman of the committee

Jones approved the program at

With controversial proposals
eliminated, the program has been
boiled down to loans of approx
mately $500, 900, 900 for equipment

of ICC approval of RFC loans
to the carriers until June 30, 1899.
The conferees eliminated many
suggestions to take the railroads
out of the "red" by President
Roosevelt in his special message
to Congress due to their con-

However, Senator Wheeler CD

This was disclosed today coinci-

agents have been ordered to speed

returns.
In former years inspection of
tax returns filed by persons with

attention to returns of individ-

brackets.
Under a new auditing program
Treasury agents will be authorized
to summon to Internal Revenue

was in order later in the day
weather permitting.
POOR FISHING LUCK
Since last Saturday, when the
President left Charleston Navy
Yard, he has enjoyed a complete
relaxation but rather poor fish

It was discovered yesterday that
