Wild Chuck Death Indians. Schang threw badly on'a ruli-down play between third and home in yesterday's tilt between the Indians and Saints and the lone tally of the affair resulted, the Saints winning, 1 to 0. Leifield and Seaton hookede up in a swell pitchers' duel, the former allowing four hits and the latter five.

A ninth inning rally which netted four runs gave the Brewers victory over the Toledo club, 5 to 1. Until the closing chapter, Bedient pitched swell hall. Hits were 10 and 6, Milwaukee. Comstock was invincible in every, inning except the, ninth when the losers averted a shut-out by pushing over a run.

Although outhit, 8 to 7, the Millers lost t( the Colonels 4 to 3. A hidden ball trick at the expense of a Miller star, robbed the team of at least a tie. I More than half of the hits were good fcr extra bags Dumont pitched for the losers, while Palmero, Stroud and Williams divided the slabbing for the victors.

TITLE HOLDER FACES KID.

Golf Champ Plays 15-Year-Old Lad In National "tourney. PHILADELPHIA. Pa., Sept. 7.—Never before have so many golfer of national reputation reached the third round of the national amateur goJf championship as this year at the Merion Cricket club.

This is due

the freak of the draw

for the early rounds and because the stars have all played up to form. Today's match between Robert A. Gardner, the title holder, and 15-year-old R, T. Jones, Jr., of Atlanta, was one of the features of the tournament and many experts figure that the southern wonder has an even chance to win. His medal scores to date warrant such an opinion. Jesse Guilford and Gardiner White, John Anderson and Chick 13vans are paired, and, as all are on top of their game, one-sided contests were not expected.

CONFEREES

UNAGREED

ON REVENUE MEASURE

Work All Night Without Beaching Assurance of Completion of Task Before Saturday.

"WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.—Conferees on the revenue bill were at work early today after a prolonged night session, but no assurance existed tfcat their report could be submitted before tomorrow, or that congress would adjourn before Saturday.

Tentatively the conferees had agreed to eliminate senate proposals for stamp taxes on various kinds of commercial papers and steamship and Pullman tickets, to abandon the house provision for tax on copper refiners and to increase from 10 to 12% per cent the net profit tax on munitions manufacturers In order to raise $5,000,000 additional which the stamp taxes would have supplied. The continuing appropriation for the tariff commission also was reported to have been stricken out. Revision of the wine tax schedule and the Phelan admendment authorising retaliatory action by withfloldlngr mail and communication privileges from citizens of foreign governments which discriminate against American trade, was being considered by the onferees, It was said.

Among the provisions whose retention, it was thought, would be recommended are the license tax on corporation stock, increased duty on dyestuffs, higher income and inheritance taxes, tariff commission and the retaliatory steps against foreign ships.

Restricts Expenditures.

Senator Owen was intent today, on continuing his fight for the corrupt practices bill which developed a torrent of bitter personal remarks yesterday after the senate had voted to take up the bill.

The bill would restrict campaign expenditures of candidates for the senate, the house and for the presidency and vice presidency to. a greater extent than the existing law. Senator Curtis argued that such a measure passed when a campaign is half over might \vork unfairly against men who have already spent the stipulated amount. He advocated a more stringent law than that proposed, and one that would particularly restrict the use of the congressional frank to prevent senaors or represenaives from sending out campaign appeals at the government's expense. He read a letter from Senator Ashurst to a constituent, reciting his record as a basis for support, and said he understood that 70,000 of these had been franked out. "If the senator charges that this is a violation of the law," said Senator

Ashurst, when he got the floor, "he has sweetbreads for brains." He explained that his letter ^ad been submitted and approved by the. postmaster general and one of his assistants as being matter which could be franked, and told how former President Taft when in the Philippines and the then Secretary of War Root exchanged cablegrams at flfty-two cents a word, paid by the government, to discuss Mr. Taft's health and^a horseback ride. "A little later Ashurst turned on Senator Penrose, who said he had noticed a "copper lobby" around the capital whose members had been talking with the Arizona senator.

Pending the revenue bill report, the conferees on the general deficiencies bill were holding up their recommendations.

THE BRITISH VIEW.

Guardian Doubts Advisability of Antagonizing Americans.*, LONDON, Sept. 7.—Commenting on the. amendment to the revenue bill passed by the United States senate Tuesday night, empowering the president to retaliate against interfereince with American commerce, the Manchester Guardian says "We should do well to note two things. 'First'—These reprisals are directed against the allies and primarily against ourselves second, they are popular in America."

The Guardian considers it Is not generally Dualized here how strong a Sentiment has been aroused throughout the United States by the blacklist policy and interference with malls and asks "If the foreign office is convinced these practices of ours are. so useful as to counterbalance the weakening of American sympathy they Involve, or that they cannot be modified so as to meet American objections without seriously imparing any utilities they may have for ourselves."
