The Giants knocked the whey out of Mordecai Brown, slammed Jack Pfiester to every part of the lot and stung Orvie Overall, third and last patcher Chance sent in to stop the carnage, so hard it looked as though the Cubs' famous score of 19 to 0, made against New York two years ago, would be duplicated. ANOTHER "BREAK-EVEN.' Philadelphia. July 13. The White Sox and Athletics broke even in today's double-header, making the count for the series three to two in favor of the Sox. The opening game of the afternoon was a struggle between Ed Walsh and "Rube" Vickers, and Walsh won by a 3 to 1 score because he had better support. In the second game Johnny Dygert was pitted against Frank Owen, and the little spit ball thrower got the best of the soldier by a 7 to 2 score. There was another big crowd out to take advantage of the opportunity to see two games for the price of one. Nearly forty thousand people have turned out to see the five games. The White Sox packe their belongings right after their afternoon's work was done and hurried on to Boston. MISCELLANEOUS BALL GAMES. At Sterling, 111. Sterling Infants National Indians, 1.

We. the Clarke Station White Sox. hereby announce that while talking to the Harbor players, some of them disappeared and three of our best gloves lso disappeared. MORE ABOUT THAT GAME. Sporting Editor, Times: I read a piece in last night's paper stating that '.he Royal League baseball club got an jnfair game at Hegewiseh Sunday, and wish to say that we, the Blissmer olts, went to Hegewiseh a week ago Sunday to play that team and can say that It was the unfairest game we played this season. Mr. Freemeyer. one of the Hegewiseh boys, umpired the game for the Hegewiseh boys at the beginning but he didn't cheat in their favor. They save him a calling down. He then quit faying that if he couldn't umpire a

square game he

wouldn't umpire at all. They then got another umpire who satisfied them, for he cheated to the finish. During the game one of the players attempted to strike one of the young ladies that went to Hegewiseh to see the game. A great big fellow about six foot tall struck and kicked a 14year old boy who is mascot for the Blissimers, which broke up the game for a few minutes. During the whole game, and after the Hegewiseh "gentlemen" insulted the ladies of West Hammond who were glad when the game was over to get out of what seemed like an uncivilized community. The Blissmer Colts then asked the Hopkins Colts for a game for last Sunday, which they promised, but Friday they received a card saying that they were afraid of getting beaten. JOHN BLISSMER, EMIL LAMMERTINE, FRED HILDERBRANDT. RUN BETWEEN CHICAGO AND DENVER. The sixth annual tour of the American Automobile association for the Glidden and ITower trophies will be contested in 1909 over western roads, with the start from Chicago and the finish at Denver. This decision was reached yesterday by Frank B. Hower, chairman of the touring board of ,the A. A. A., following the arrival of the Glidden host at Milford, Pa. LONG "BIKE" TOUR TO INDIANS. Only Team to "Win Perfect Score from New York to Chicago. Indian motorcycles scored a complete triumph in the 1,200 mile reliability tour, which started July 6 from New York and finished at Thirteenth street and Michigan avenue, Chicago, at 4 six contesting teams each composed of three riders of various types of motorcycles, the Indian trio, Stanley T. Kellog. George N. Holden and B. S. Barrows, was the only entry to come through from Broadway without suffering penalty. While the victory of the Springfield made "bike" constituted the chief winning on the big run the prize for the neatest appearing team goes to the Excelsion folks, all three of whom are Chicagoans. AMERICANS HAVE OFF DAY. London, July 15. Another country whose flag the Olympic games committee faile to use in decorating the stadium had the gratification of having its colors hoisted on the winning pole today when Eric V. Leming of Sweden easily won the javelin throw, making a new record of 178 feet 7Vs inches. Few Americans were entered today and they had to be satisfied with one silver medal, earned by taking second place in the three-mile team race, which was won by England. It was essentially a day for the Britons, as they captured two events, the threemile team race and the 600-meter cycle race, while France also earned a gold medal by winning the 2,000-meter cvcling race. This means that England has now won four gold medals, America two and France and Sweden one each. "HAPPY JACK" CADY CHAMP. Rock Island, 111.. July 15. H. Chandler Egan is no longer the champion golfer of the west. "Happy Jack" Cady of the Rock island Arsenal Golf club eliminated the crack Exmoor and Louisville player, 4 and 3, in tht sec- 1 round of the western amateur tournament, whic his being held here on the government island. I This was merely the climax of a ay of surprises. Chicago was especially hard hit dudring the progress of the first and second rounds. Rev. R. P. Talbot of Wichita smothered Home- 1 wood's hopes of the title by trimming Warren K. Wood this afternoon, 4 and three. i BLACK MARKS FOR TWO AUTOS. Reo and Overland Run to Suffer Milford. In Glidden Milford, Pa., July 15. The sixth of the twelve actual running days was completed this evening by the aspirants for honors in the Glidden and Hower trophy contests with but two penalties, one of which was a perfect score Hower entry. Lockwood in the Reo runabout No. 101, was the victim in the run from Philadelphia. His penalty was for lost time, twelve points being charged for as many minutes behind schedule. The other recipient of black marks during the day was the 110 Overland, which broke a frame Monday. It became necessary to repair the car again and thirty-three minutes and points were lost. There were no changes watever in the standing of the Glidden touring machines, and it looks now by the way the cars are running that there will be more than two teams tied at the end of the regular 1,700mile journey. Tonight the betting has gone up to 3 to 1 in favor of the runoff. RELAY RACE IS STARTED. Progrf of the Y. M. C. Toward Cbleagro. A. Journey Due At Yonkers 11:45 a At Ossining 1:30 p.

Republicans Are Getting Busy on the Democratic Nominee For Vice Presi dent and Intend to Make Things Warm For Him. POLITICS POI ASIDE FOR CELEBRATION Candidate for Vice President Is Asserted to Have Made Boast That He Didn't Depend on Negroes for Any Votes After He was Defeated for Governor. (Special to The Times.) IndiannpoIlH, Ind., July 111. Now tlint John W. Kern is home ant the nonpartisan spirit is Njicnt, rrpuliliciin are getting busy u the democratic nominee with a view to s!iuiuuk that he Is not the wontlerful -:ia!i(Intr that the Indulgent press of liie slnle sind its charitable citizens hiivc Indicated. The republicans hold oil' in their criticism until after the prlile of citizenship had been asuirleil. They re joiced that members of (heir party Joined in the welcoming demonstration, t'ltixen flrst candidate afterward In the way they put It. This spirit was shown abundantly at the celebration. It was demonstrated by distinguished professional and business men, -who have alwayse voted the republican ticket, cheering Kern at the train, at his home and at the court house, where the speaking was done; by the presence of Vico President Fairbanks and Mayor Hookwalter, who were the prominent speakers; by tin? attitude of the press in booming the welcoming plans; by citizens generally who decorated their homes and got out to cheer. POLITICS OW OX DECK. But this is all over now and politics is again showing its head. From now on John W. Kern is a democratic candidate not an honored citizen of Inidanapolis. The republicans have a fruitful field in which to work. They know that Mr. Kern is not an especially valuable asset in Indiana. Ili.s ability may be summed up in tiie following paragraph: In 18!i5 the republican plurality in Indiana was 1S.1S1; in 11)000 when Mr. Kern was the democratic nominee for governor, the republican plurality was $25,1C!; in 1904, Mr. Kern being again j the nominee, the republican plurality was o:i.:44. These figures will be used extensively and probably with affect by the republican managers in the coming campaign. SAIU TO BK TAfiGART'S I.AWYF.R. Fastern papers have already referred to Mr. Kern as Tom Taggart's lawyer and it is likely that the state press will take up the phrase, once that the non-partisanship is cast to the winds. Mr. Kern is attorney for Mr. Taggart and it is recalled that in the famous French Lick cases, the attorney for the owner of the casino worked overtime in an effort to ridicule the law and bring its enforcers into bad repute with the people. Attorney Kern did not seek to win his client's case by legal practices but by wielding the sarcasm for which he Is noted. Instead of fighting the case through the law books he sought to fifght in through friendly newspapers by giving out a humorous interview In which he featured "the one eyed constable of Stammer Creek township," who was made the principal figure of the raiding party by the versatile and brilliant Mr. Kern. It no doubt was Mr. Kern's idea to convert to his use whatever anti-Hanly sentiment may have existed in the state at the time even though use of it ridiculed the administrators of the law and brought the law itself into disrespect. DIOVT IXCM'DE AKGROES. It is recalled, too, that Mr. Kern In a speech following his second defeat for governor boasted that the vote he received did not indue the suffrages of any negroes. This will be used for all it is worth. Strangely enough he Is on a national ticket just when the democratic party hopes to drag part of the colored vote away from the republican party. Democratic managers have seemed to see much anti-Taft senti ment among the negroes of Indiana. They have boasted that the colored voters would not this year swallow Taft and the platform upon which he stands. They have sought to organize anti-Taft clubs among the colored citizens and to induce the negroes to support Bryan. Republicans smile at the thought of negroes deserting their party and supporting a man who boasted that his votes, though few in number, did not come from the negro part of the population. Kern's exact words will be ferretted out and sent broadcast throughout the state. Republican managers insist that hey will nip in he bud any hope that the democrats may hold of winning colored voters to their cause. KKATCH SAYS IT CAXT W1X. Practically all Indianapolis democrats, who attended the convention, have now returned. All enthusiastic over the situation. Former Mayor Holtzman says everybody came away satisfied with Denver, delighted with the convention, gratified with the plat-

TELEPHONE COMPANY USES jye SYSTEM All South Chicago Calls Are Made a Matter of Record.

TO ACCOMODATE THE PATRONS Sufcscriben Heretofore Have Complained that Bills Are Incorrect and Are Overcharged. Owing to the enormous amount of complaints that have been coming in at the local of rice of the Chicago Telepnonp company relative to alleged overcharges on city calls, a representative from the down town office visited the South Chicago Times office today and explained why the company did not send out itemized bills for this class of calls. First, the company asserts that if they send out itemized bills it means a loss of money for them. This was explained by the fact that it required additional cleiical help and this, together with the operators' time naturally takes longer to get the party you are calling. In making out an itemized bill it is necessary for the operator to find out the number and I name of party calling and also the name and number of the party being called. In addition to this it is necessary to stamp the time talked by the two parties. The way the business is handled at the present time you simply call your number, but by a new syst m in operation a record of all calls remains on record at Cue down town auditor's office, where they can be referred to at any time. Record of All Calls. The remedy: If a subscriber thinks he is overcharged, first get into communication with the local manager, who will furnish you with a record of every city call that has went over your phone during the month and also the number of minutes that you talked to your party. By doing this the company believes that all difficulties between subscribers and themselves can be adjusted satisfactory to both. While the company admits that in some cases a party may be overcharged they deny that it is done intentionally, but comes through a clerical error, something that is likely to occur with any large corporation of such magnitude as the Chicago Telephone company. Their representative stated if the people would only take up the matter with the local manager immodiately upon receipt of their bill at the end of the month there was no doubt but what everything could be adjusted. Before the advent of the five cent toll for city calls it was necessary to allow from three to four minutes before getting your party and the chafge was ten cents for three minutes. Now the subscribers are having advantage of a five cent toll and the privilege of talking five minutes. The live cent charge for city call was effective Nov. 1. and enthusiastic over the ticket. He insists that it was the finest convention ever. James L. Keatch. former boss of this city, who elected Holtzman to the mayorality, says the ticket may be all right that it can not hope to win in Indiana or in any other so-called doubtful state. DEATH OF AGED A. K. Garhardt, One of Hobart's Oldest Citizens, Passes Away. Hobart. Ind.. July 16. A. K.

EXCITING CHASE FOR TP COPPER THIEVES East Side Police Bring Down Men Who Have the Goods.

EDISON COMPANY THE LOSER Miss 2,000 feet of Wire Yesterday; Men Are Caught on Way Out of Hegewiseh. Two mn are lying in cells at the East Side police station today, charged with burglary by the CommonwealthEdison company. The men, who gave the names of Martin Carmody and Henry Lumpp, were arrested after a chase extending over seven blocks. during which time several shots were fired by the officers. The Commonwealth-Edison company has been missing copper wire for some time and yesterday one strip of over 2.000 feet had been cut from their line and apparently the thieves had made a safe getaway. The East Side police station was notified, who in return notified the Hegewiseh officers to be on the alert for any clew that might lead to the arrest of the robbers. Officer Hagberg, one of the Hegewiseh policemen, ran onto a clew that looked so good to him that he notified his sta tion with the request that they had better bring along the wagon and a squad of men. This was done and the patrol wagon, in charge of Sergeant Bonner and six other officers, drove to Hegewiseh, where they were met by Officer Hagberg, who said he had positive information that two men were about to drive out of Hegewiseh with a load of copper wire. The patrol wagon started in pursuit of the two men and after firing several shots they were captured near Wolf j lake. The men were driving a single j horse which was attached to a light i wagon. The copper wire which constituted tiieir load, was lying in the rear of the wagon, concealed by a large burlap covering. The police are of the opinion that Carmody and Lumpp have successfully operated their game through Hegewiseh for some time and believe that with their arrest the depredations will stop. Both men deny that they stole the wire, claiming they purchased it from other men. CHASED OVER INDiANALINE Auto Case Reaches Governor of Illinois and Novel Suit Reported. Extradition for a chauffeur who started to go away from Sullivan, Ind., with an automobile and was caught, was sought from Governor Deneen yesterday. The heartng was held in the Deneen headquarters in the Grand Pacific hotel, and the case was taken under additional information on it. "Jack" Hoover, a chauffeur an fare-ban-machinist employed by a local auto company, Is the man sought. Warrants charging Hoover with grand larceny were sworn out at Sullivan, Tnd , by Elmer S. Goode of Flat Rock. 111., who is said to own valuable oil lands, and Sheriff M. F. Waters, of Sullivan county, Ind., came to Chicago to take Hoover hack if he could get him. Detec tive Sergeants Iavin and Sheeny of the Central detail were assigned to assist him and the state's attorney's office was represented by Assistant Stat.' s Attorney F. L. Barnett.

(The Times Square Automobile company,) paying 1150 in cash and giving a check for the remainder. While the company charges that Goods was to pay only $8,000 for the machine, is is said that his complaint avers the auto's value was only $3,500.. Near Sullivan, Ind., in a detour made because of the condition of the roads, the auto broke down, and Goode stopped payment on his check by telegraph. A polite salesman was hurried to Sullivan. Conferences were had, at which it was agreed thai Goode should pay $600 more and the company repair the auto. Orders Him to Chicago. Hoover was sent down to do the job. after several Sullivan mechanics and one Chicago man had tried it and failed. Hoover also failed. On Juno - his employers ordered him to bring the machine or ship the engine back to Chicago for overhauling. Having patched things up enough to make the machine go. Hoover started back. News that the auto had left Sullivan reached Goode and a hot chase followed. Hoover was overtaken eight miles from town and ran the machine into a farmyard. He then came to Chicago and Goode followed, demanding a settlement. Instead of a settlement, he ran Into a suit brouglrf by the company for $289, said to be due on his account, and departed after telling the company what he was going to do to Hoover.

POULTON CANDIDATE

F Friends Want to Send Him Back to the Legislature. HAS PROVEN HIS ABILITY Only 29 Years Old He Has Hewn His Own Niches in the Steep Path of Success. Fourteen years ago John J. Poulton was selling newspapers on Ninety-second street and Commercial avenue. South Chicago. Today lie is a candidate for democratic nomination for tiia state legislature. After two highly successful terms, during which he has demonstrated his unquestionable ability to take charge of the people's interests at Springfield. Some of the principal bills which Mr. Poulton has been prominently identified with are the cent g;is bill. thshot firers bill ,tho railroad safety appliance bill, the Calumet canal annexation bill, tiie small parks bill and various other measures in behalf of labor and the Calumet region. Poulton's early life forced the young man to make his own way in the world since he was 15 years old. His father died when John was that o JOHN J. POULTON. age, and since then he has been the soie support of his mother with whom he lives at 9131 Exchange avenue. He came to South Chicago with his parents in 1SS3. His father, John Joulton, senior, was a prominent democrat and at one time was editor of a South Chicago newspaper. Upon his father's death, John began working by day and studying by night. He attended the local schools and graduated from St. Patrick's parochial high school in 1S97. Later he took a four year course at the Kent School of Law, where he graduated and was admitted to the bar in 1902. Since then he has been practicing law during the time he has not been attending to his duties at Springfield. Mr. Poulton maintains law offices in the Ashland block down town and at the office of Lyke and Morrell in South Chicago. Popular Young Man. Poulton's personal popularity through the Calumet region probably exceeds that of any other young man in public life, as he is a splendid orator and his character and private life are above reproach. While the young man is only 29 years old. he has the experience of a man of 40 and during his last term in the legislature clearly demonstrated his ability for taking care of the Calumet region. At Springfield be has the confidence of his colleagues and when the local man mounts the stand preparatory to making a speech, there is a calm prevailing over tiie legislative body which means that he will bo heard and his speech acted upon. Fron the outlook so far there seems no doubt but what the local man will receive the nomination and getting the nomination, will aeain go back to thet legislature, according to his friends' prediction.
