NEW YORK - Hymie Caplin,
manager of Lightweight Champion
Lew Jenkins, has been indefinitely
suspended by the New York Box
ing commission and may not be
in. Jenkins corner when he fights
Welterweight Champion Henry
Armstrong in a non-title bout
July II.
The commission added a 500

levied because Caplin signed for
a Jenkins fight at the Broadway
arena when he had no contract

Snead Jolley
Hitting Ball

SPOKANE-Big Smead Jolley,
one of the vests most natural
hitters, is showing the way for all
batters the nation over to date.
The big Spokane outfielder of the
Western International league al
ready has driven in SO runs for his
club. National statistics reveal
that Lou Novikoff, the Mad Rus
sian with the Los Angeles Angels,
is second with SO runs driven in.
At this point in the 1899 WI
chase the leader was Lloyd Chris
TOPPER, Wenatchee. He had 81.
That gives an idea Of how the big
Spokane performer is pelting the
agate in the department where it
really counts.

Mt Lincoln bowl. when the
powerful GMC Truck club
meets the SIN O h-working
Turf Smoke Shop boys. Either
krupp or Felt will be on the

Harry Hall turned in a swell
pitching performance Tuesday
night at Lincoln bowl to give Su-
perior Dairy TO 2 win over
Smelter Local. Hall allowed eight
hits. three coming in the last in
ming. when the Smelter boys
staged belated rally that had
the tying runs on the bases.
The lanky Superior hurler

corners with n neat curve ball
and at no time was he In
danger. He famed 10 and
didn't issue n pass.
Dick Smith started for the Ore
men but four successive hits in
the fourth, which netted two runs
before a man was out sent him
to the showers and Del Michael
son carried on. Del stopped the
run-making right now. that is,
until the eighth when two hits
gave the Dairy lads their third
run. A single by Marcusson and
a double by Art Berg gave the
Milkmen the last marker in the
final canto.
SHUTOUT SPOILED
For a while it looked as though
Hall was going to turn in shut
out, but double by Rooney and
single by Strife in the sixth
accounted for the first Smelter
tally. A double by Wise and a
single by Bowers in the last in
ming gave the Smelter followers a
bit of hope which rose higher
when Van Slyke. batting for Heb
ert singled to deep right, sending
Bowers to third, but Garnes
grounded out to end one of the
hardest fought games of the sea-
son.
Manager Wise Of the losers
stole fielding honors, accepting IL
chances at short without a mishap.
The Oremen turned in three fast
double plays.

Department of Agrculture) Trad
ing was very quiet in the Boston wool
market last week. A few pur-
chases of domestic wools were
made by users with urgent needs.
Prices realized were about steady on
fine territory woods.
Quotations advanced on low
quarter-blood territory woods as a
result of an urgent demand for small
supplies on strengthening prices for
wool of similar grade in South
American markets.
Graded, bright, combing fleece
wools were quiet, and nominal quo
tations were unchanged to 81 to 40
cents, in the grease, for fine Delaine,
SO to 40 cents for half-blood and a
to 43 cents for three-eights and

Joint control over them, would have
to join Great Britain in their de-
fense, thereby becoming involved in
war. Such an arrangement consti-
tutes not only a political alliance
but, what is more, military alli-
ance, inasmuch as even the arma-
ment of the islands could be agreed
upon secretly by the two govern
ments.
THE United States is being de-
liberately entangled in Asia for
British political purposes. British
economic interests in Asia are 10
times greater than those of the
United States.
"This alliance was closely fol-
lowed by our notice to Japan of
termination of treaty relations,
move manifestly in accord with the
British policies in the Far East. Now
we have threats of embargoes by the
United States of trade with Japan
and threats by Japan of retaliation,
