Chicago, Nov. 5. There is mourning in the American league and Charlie Taft's National league headquarters is draped in sable bands, for "Uncle Joe" cannon has embarked as a baseball magnate. Late dispatches report that he has purchased the South Bend, Ind., club and will transfer it to Danville, his home town, to play the circuit of the Illinois-Missouri league. "Hurrah for Umpire Cannon!" What chance will such Insignificant teams as the "world's champions" have in competition for the patronage of that great army of vocal enthusiasts known as the "fans" against the

MAGNATE CANNON. Danvilles with Uncle Joe as umpire? It was noised about In baseball circles yesterday that the Danville capitalists have ralsod a fund to increase the seating capacity of the grounds to twenty times their present size In anticipation of the influx of "fans" who will go down there to see the speaker of the house apply his ironclad rules to the great national game. Insurgents Show Joy. In the ranks of the insurgents there Is untold joy. Already, though the news is less than twenty-four hours old, those men who are still smarting from the severe application of the Cannon rules at the last session of congress are smiling with glee at the prospects. In their minds they picture him, in pad and mask, the Inevitable long cigar protruding at the u6ual angle through the bars, as he stands behind the catcher. In imagination they see htm standing cold and unperturbed in the midst of an hungry mob of players, threatening him with fist and bat, on account of some close decision. They think they see him trying to apply the rules of the house regarding recognition, as with calm serenity he points his gavel at Capt. "Smith" of the nonprotesting team and. in strident tones, announces, "I recognize Mr. Smith of Danville." But even "Uncle Joe's" most .vindictive political enemy draws the kindly veil of silence over the picture that comes to his mind of what will happen then. What does political preferment amount to when "Bill Murphy" is out in the ninth, on a close decision, and he game is lost. Will the crowd of fans hesitate to assail Uncle Joe with their usual missiles or to Invoke their gods against him simply because of his speakership. Will they cease to cry. "Kill the umpire." "Beat his block off," "You're a mutt." and other choice fan phrases? Will they? The insurgents answer with a smile. Feel Lash, Then See a Game. "It Is barely possible 'Uncle Joe will triumph over us and become speaker of the next congress," say the insurgents, "but when things grow dull in Washington and we feel the lash of Ms apposition, think, of the consolation, even pleasure, that we will find as we look forward to the rift in the clouds when congress Is over and we can journey down to Danville to Bee Uncle Joe umpire a baseball game. Others ask whether It may not be that the speaker's baseball experience will have some effect on the rules of the house. ' Three motives have been suggested as the reason why Uncle Joe is about to embark in this new enterprise. The first one comes from Danville merchants, who declare that it is simply a means of advertising their thriving city. Another suggestion comes from Uncle Joe's arch enemies, who assume that he is about to relinquish his ' throne and, therefore; has sought out a field In private life that will present equal opportunities for strenuousness. The third suggestion is that "Uncle Joe" is golns to build up an organization of enthusiastic fans which will be atrong enough to return him to power.

STUDY INACTIVE III PROSECUTING III A MILK CASE City Attorney Has Taken No Steps, It Is Said, to Arrest Dairyman Horning for Violating Ordinance. INSPECTOR MAKES A VIGOROUS COMPLAINT Alleges He Has Informed Mr. Study and Asked Prosecution But That His Recommendation Is Not Heeded. "I am absolutely disgusted with the matter and will have nothing further to do with it. I have done my part, and if City Attorney Study does not Intend to do his, I will not concern myself any more on the subject." Thus spoke Dairy Inspector Mark Stewart, when asked why steps were not taken or an affidavit filed for the arrest of J. L. Horning, the dairyman, whose license was revoked last week, and who sold milk in this city on the day after he received orders to discontinue the practice. Hornlng's case is a serious one, it is said, and Inspector Stewart declared that he can not understand why Mr. Study does not have the man arrested. On Wednesday of last week, Hornlng's license was revoked in view of the fact that he disregarded the orders of the officers to clean up his premises and enforce more rigid sanitation about his dairy. Ordered to Stop Sales. He was notified to stop selling milk to bis customers in Richmond or he would be arrested. Notwithstanding this fact, it is alleged, Inspector Stewart states he has positive proof that the man did sell milk in this city on the Thursday following the day his license was revoked. City Attorney Study was immediately consulted by Dr. Stewart in regard to the matter, it is said, and asked to file an affidavit against Horning for hts arrest. According to Chief of Police Staubach. no affidavit has been filed against Horning, however. Mr. Study was asked if an affidavit had been filed and what he intended to do in the matter, but he refused to discuss the case, stating that the proper place to discover if any affidavit had been filed was to look up the records. The affidavit would be filed in the city court and the police have no knowl edge of such a proceeding having taken place. Dairy Inspector Stewart is greatly incensed over the matter and the apparent unconcern with which the subject is treated by the city attorney. He declares that an example should be made of Horning and thinks the man should be arrested. Caused Much Trouble. Stewart asserts that Horning has been causing him trouble for several weeks and repeated attempts to have the dairyman make the necessary changes and keep his place strictly sanitary, have proved of no avail. "The conditions that exist on his premises are deplorable." said the inspector. "and his milk is not fit to be sold in this city. He has violated the city ordinance by selling after his license has been revoked, and I cannot understand Mr. Study's cttitude in regard to the case." While Horning is not now selling milk to his customers in this city, it is alleged that he is evading the law by conducting the sale on his premises ,the customers coming to his place, four miles north-east of the city after their milk. It is said such a proceeding does not constitute a violation of the city ordinance, but City Health Officer Dr. C S. Bond stated that he was of the opinion that such a sale could be declared illegal in view of the fact that the dairy had been condemned. Used at the Westcott. Practically all of the milk used at the Westcott hotel Is bought of Horning, it is said. It is alleged that men are sent out to Hornlng's farm, who purchase the milk and return it to the hotel, where it is used. On the averago of ton gallons is brought from the

condemned dairy daily, it is said, for use at the Westcott- Horning seTls his milk at 5 cents a quart, while all of the other dairymen charge UVi cents a quart. George Gay, proprietor of the Westcott. declares that Horning's milk is all right, and that he believes the man is being unjustly condemned. However, Inspector Stewart, who has made himself thoroughly familiar with the conditions that exist on Hornlng's place, states that the milk is unfit for use. What will be done on the subject is a puzzle to the city health officials. The answer invariably appears to be the same-nothing.

In 1487 Bartholomew Diaz sailed far enough south along the western coast of Africa not only to descry bat to doable the Cape of Storms, as it was then called, and as the coast was ascertained to run toward the northeast the prospect of success in the direction of India seemed now so clear that the Portuguese monarch renamed the cape Cabo de Boa Esperanza,' or Cape of Good Hope. The -good hope" was realised in 1498 by Vasco da Gama. who. doubling the southernmost point of Africa, sailed on to Calicut, thus opening up the long dreamed of route to India. He Wasn't Glad.
