EVANS, BARNES, MAXWELL, EAST VS. WEST NOW IN BATTLE OP DOLLARS TO GET SIGNATURE OF LEONARD FOR TITLE CONTEST Chicago Promoter Is Desirous of Booking Cham pion Against WhiteNew Yorker Seeks Benny for Tilt With Dundee Dy LOUIS AS'OTHEB. East vs. West battle Is raging. Jt This time fuel for the fireworks Is In the form.of fllthy lucre, and Benny Leon ard Is tofblame for the interactional argu ment. A man In Chicago with a healthy bankroll and another guy of greenbacks In New York aro putting on the big stuff. Since Fred Welsh was forced to re linquish his grip on the lightweight crown as a result of nine rounds nf rather rough sledding In the ring with Leonard, there have been at least two contenders raising a lot of duct on Benny's trail. They. are Charley White, of Chicago, and Johnny Dundee, of New York. It Is evident that either will get an opportunity In a short time to nee whether his mettle with the mitts surpasses that of the marvelous Leonard person. Twenty thousand dollars, all for himself, has been the bait of the Windy City pro moter to Leonard for a twenty-round con test with White, to be staged somewhere In Illinois. Dick Curley has been author lied to clinch the match from the 1-conard angle White, of course, already has been signed for the fus9. Now comes John Relsler. the Barber. The Barber steps Into the breach with the announcement that h has an option on a club somewhVre within a few hours' ride from New York, where a 20-round contest to a decision Is permissible. John pro poses to make Dundee the other principal In a championship tilt, rather than White Present Indications show that the West leads the East by $6000 In the fight for Leonard's services In a championship battle, as the Barber's best bid to Leonard for a Dundee mix Is $16,000. Unless the raior man screws up enough courage to outbid the Chicago offer, there Is no likeli hood of Leonard jeopardizing his laurels In an eastern match. Benny no doubt wouldn't mind traveling out somewhere near Chicago, especially when a mere mat ter of live thou Is the magnet. Traveling ' l work rather than pleasure, but the dif ference In the purtcs would pay the champ for his trouble of pointing his nuae to the setting sun. Ray Shows Speed and Everything JACK CARUSO rtUSSO, the New Or leans nineteen-year-old lightweight. Isn't the best boxer In the world, nor Is he the worst. There" are many better fistic men than the Loulslanlnn and there nre a lot below hla caliber, in winning from Russo on Saturday night at the National Club. Johnny Hay, of Pittsburgh, had to keep on high gear throughout the six rounds, even though there was not a doubt at the finish that the Pirate pug was the winner Ray showed n lot of speed, cleverness, straight punching and everything In win ning from Ru'so. Some one at the ringside said that Russo was having an off night. Whether he did or not. there was little doubt that Ray had It all over Russo a dozen different was. After outboxlng his opponent In the early rounds, Ray stole tome of Russo's stuff by slugging In the last round. And Johnny beat Jack at Ills ewn game. Two record knockouts were chalked up iOW TO JjCharlzs (CAidc) Evans Jr. Holes IT IS said that the Lloyds Insurance Agency will wager 30.000 to 1 that a player can not make n given hole In one Itroke This looks like big odds, but I cannot help thlnK Ing that tho Lloyds are a little on the easy side at that, it would be hard to calculate how many golf strokes I have played so far In my lifetime, and I have made only one hole in one stroke. The hole that I made In one was the ninth nt the Chicago Golf Club, and without flatter ing myself I think I can nay that no one In the country has ever, day after day. pitched nearer the- hole than I have, and I have CHARLES EVANS been pitching, near holes, year after year, all over the country. I have made num berless twos, and once landed In the hole on the carry, but the Instance at the Chi cago Golf Club was the only time the ball disappeared Into the cup when driven. Another strange thing to me la that I have been able to make numerous noies in two on holes where the green cannot be reached from the tee. This allotment of holes In one to golfers Is really an Interesting and curious thlig. I dare say there nre 11 large number of golfers throughout the country, to whom I could give large handicaps, who have made many more holes In one than I have. It Is Bald that one of the big English golf magazines has nn Innor roll for golf ers who have made a hole In one, nnd I would 1'ke to know how many holes In one the big three Vardon, Braid and Taylor have made. It Is rumored that Vardon aas not one to his credit. Gardner the Star I think the only time a hole has ever been made In one during a national cham pionship was at Detroit, In 1915, when Rob ert Gardner holed out from the tee on the HO-yard sixth hole. His opponent had a two. and that is probably the only time In the history of big championships that a two has lost the hole. Every one remembers JCed Allls's hole In one at Homewood during the western cham pionship of 19U, it Is perhaps the most famous pf all American holes In one, for It was a smashing drive from the tee of the old first hole, and that hole measures more than J00 yards. It waa a record-breaker, and persons have never tired talking about It- flight here, however. Is an Interesting point to note It la much easier for a rolling ball to hole out than It s for oneA land In the hole either on the carry ojTbaunce and stuy there.. Therefore, I Uhk there art more ones made pn holes that are more than ISO yards than on those under that distance. The pin In the hole makes a 'difference, too, I have seen balls strike In the canvas of the flag and drop In and tay, but that Is the only circumstance where I have seen the ball stay in the cup n the carry. One n a Glen View Golf Club tourna ment Chandler Egan made the seventh hole n one, and then a player unknown to fame Jbo was behind him did the Identical thing.. PuIai Orant, while playing In tho Call, fofnla championship at bel Monte against ck Kevflle recently, made the eleventh j Jn one. Nearly all the olubs hold choice score or : ir" evmt, aw. it would fce ntereUn II. JAFFE n the prelims. Young Robldeau opened the show by flattening Harry Oarson In one minute fiat. Tommy Hogan followed this feat by knocking Pat Marley off his '"l '" minute ana twenty seconds. Battling Murray finished strongly In a great bout with Bobby Burns, of Baltimore, and the former deserved a slight shade the better of the bout. Billy Manz, of Mil waukee, won a six-rounder from Jack Herman. Looic Tendler, the Awkward ROCKY KANSAS, he who possesses a rocky wallop and a Jaw of steel, will b among those present at the Olympla Club tonight. The Buffalo caveman Is on the evening's program as a headllner. and will put on an act with Lew Tendler as the other character. It will be a bout between a fighter and a boxer who Is considered to be awkward despite his cleverness. Because of his style of attack. Tendler has crossed the dore so often that he has been picked a winner whenever he has answered the bell In his recent matches. There la no doubt that his extended right arm fools his opponents and while they are trying to fathom Loole's style the newsboy goes along In his nonchalant manner win ning on points. That Is the way tonight's contest probably will result. Gus Lewis and Benny Valger are to ap pear In a bantam bout In the semi. Valger has been going nicely here this year and he may give Lewis a little trouble. Jimmy McCnbe and Darby Caspar will appear In the third number, preceded by matches between Billy Hlnes and Battling Ionard and Young Louisiana and Ray Belmont. The Color Line Erased WHEN Benny Leonard recently disre garded the well-known color lino and knocked out Leo Johnson and Fddle Dor sey. the lightweight champton dropped the bar against lnter-raclal bouts. This, will give the negro nn opportunity to get back Into the pugilistic limelight. From the time that Jack Johnson knocked out Tommy Burns for the heavyweight title back In 1908 until Leonard boxed Johnson, all champions absolutely refused to appear In competition against a dusky opponent. This brings to light the fact that Phila delphia may spring to the fore with a negro contender for a champlDnshlp. Preston Brown, after a short absence from the ring. Is hack In harness again. He started by scoring a one-round knockoat two weeks ago. If he can snow the same form of two or three yearn ago. Broun may place himself Into line for a chnncc pt a championship. Tomorrow night Brown Is to met Kddle Morgan, the r-lever Englishman, at the Nonpareil Club. If Brown succeeds In winning from Morgan, Pres will prove that he still possesses nt least some nf his former class Morgan Is n clever boxer. He has showed good form against some of the best his weight In the country. Morgan and Brown put up two of the greatest bouts ever seen in the N'atlonal ring sevpral years ago. PLAYGOLF in One to check up on these and see Just how many ones are made during the season. ' Some Faked One-Shotters There arc the stock strrles at golf clubs of the p ayer who comes boasting Into the nineteenth hole declaring he has made a hole In one. only to discover that John .Smith, who was ahead of him, had de posited the ball In the hole. I advise the joker who fancies thin to try It on a blind liole. There Is another story told, too, of the drunken man who made n hole In one. and when his caddie, nfter a search, showed him the ball, said: "Darn the luck; give me my niblick." Just consider how perfect a shot must be to go In tho ho'e In one shot. What a miracle of distance, direction, windage, height, break of ground went Into lis making, and yet the last one I heard of being made was by n player who half topped his shot, hit 011 the top of a bunker near the green and ran up Into the hole. A prominent professional once said a ball has to go somewhere and might as well go Into the hole. EDDIE HEARNE WINS IN 168-MHE RACE Leads Classy Field of Auto Drivers at Uniontown Louis Chevrolet Hurt UNIONTOWN, Pa., Oct. !9.

Ilarnea and Looa made tin COURT HOLDS TOWN TICKET Continued from rage One Smith faction, opened the argument !! declared that 1602 signatures affixed to the papers as of persons swearing to the affi davits were forged. He asserted that 6S2 names that were supposed to have been signed to the papers were forged and that In addition to these there were 2024 names of men who had never appeared before a notary In making their signatures. There was a total of 6798 names signed to the petitions, ho said, and of these, he alleged, 4324 were there Improperly In order to make the applications good 3380 names are required. Mr. Connor then argued that the printing of the Town Meeting party name on the general ballot would be a virtual disfran chisement of the 156.000 electors who voted the Republican ticket nt the primaries, .since the names of the Town Meeting can didates will appear on other tickets on the general ballot. He based his argument on the plea that the duplication of names of candidates on the general ballot would be unjust An nit-mnt was made by the ounty Commissioners to have tho Town Meeting party compelled to bnvc Its papers rectified between 10 o'clock tomorrow morning and n o'clock tomonow afternoon. After Judge Davis had announced that the papers should be amended In the County Commls sloners' offices. County Commissioner Kuen zcl entered a protest, saying: "Unless tho court assists us with a ruling as to the time In which they can be amend ed. It will be Impossible lo have the ballots printed." "Well, you cmild give tbeni twenty-four hours, couldn't jou?" asked Judge Davis. William A. Glasgow, counsel tor me Town Meeting party, objected to any Hme limit being set. while Commissioner Kucn 7.el suggeHted that the affiants bo called between the hour of 10 and n tomorrow. The suggestion brougtli forth n rebuke from Judge Davis, wlm snld "You told m the other day that jou were In no hurry about this case If the opinion of the court Indicates that a suf ficient number of papers can bo amended so that the Town Meeting ticket can go on the ballot, you can go ahead with printing the ballots and the nomination papers can be amended afterward." In continuing Ills argument for the com plainants. Mr. Connor nserted that the Town Meeting party had no right to file papers In the first place. If. as he alleged, they wcr not properly sworn to. CARELESSNESS IS ADMITTED "We do not defend the careless, sllpshop manner In winch the papers wero gotten tip." said Thomas Raebum White, of coun sel for the defense. "The only explanation we enn give Is that the manner In which thev were prepnred Is a custom which has grown up In this city during many years. There was no criminal Intent. Ignorance nnd carelet'ticss wero responsible tor me errors. "There were two nr three ce of ras cality. In tliee rae the court will. r)f rnure, throw nut the papers a Invalid. I'nder the method employed for preparing the paper, n man who wanted to wreck the ne-w pirty could eaally appear and 'o'ae the name of signer and then dleappear." Mr White then asked for a ruling as to how the papers should be amended. The rourt ruled thai the affidavits must be made before a notnrv by five affiants who were duly qualified electors and who had signed the papers H- added that they might have five or more nfflants for each paper, but that collectively they would have to swear to all the signatures of all the papers. He then cnlled upon the County Commissioners to co-opernte In tho work. Judge Davis announced that lie would designate late today or tomorrow morning what papers can be amended. William A. Glasgow, Jr., of counsel for the Town Meeting party, confined his argu ments chiefly to correcting Mr. Connor In his citation of court decisions pre cedent for tho Justice of the contentions being made by the Vnre-Smlth faction. A request that the court rule that the amended papers should not be stamped 111 tho headquarters of tho Town Meeting partv was made by Mr. Connor, w.ho pleaded that they should be vouched for either In court or In the County Commis sioners' offices. He asked also that the court rule that Frank Rnu. a notary, who witnessed many of tho original papers, should not bo permitted to place his seal on the new papers. Mr. Glasgow asked the court to name an acceptable notary, but this Judge Davis refused to do. giving the Intimation that the papers were not to be taken from the County Commissioners' of fices. DEMAND FOR STATE POLICE A demand for State police to take charge of the maintenance of law nnd order In Philadelphia on election day has been sent to Governor Brumbaugh by the Town Meet In reference to the request for State con stabulary. Howard R. Sheppard, chairman nf the Town Meeting party campaign com mittee, made the following statement: I do not see any reasonable ground upon wlilcn uovernor iirumnnuKii i-.m refuse the request of the Town Meeting partv that he send the State Constabulary Into" Philadelphia on November 5 nnd 6 for the enforcement of law. the protection of our cltliens and to Insure nn honest election In which every qualified voter may be given full opportunity to mark his bollot as his conscience dictates, and to have every ' .lot properly counted. The request , no frenzied or hysterical' petition bass. ,on an Imagined menace. Danger exJHfaow upon a far broader scale than inSf on Primary Section day. when murder was committed In the Fifth Ward. That murder was the result of the fail ure or refusal of Mayor Smith to take precautions against open violations of the law. of which he was frequently and pub llclv warned. Policemen, firemen and of ficeholders have been forced to even more pernicious political activity since then, and although forty-eight hours now have elapsed since his receipt of a public demand upon the part of the Town Meet lng party that he take Immediate and adequate, stepa to restore order and en force the law which city employes are compelled to violate, there has been no word of reply, nor any visible evidence of an Intention upon his part to take the steps necessary to fully protect the citi zens of Philadelphia. The appeal to Governor Brumbaugh is Indorsed by some of the clearest-minded nnd most respected cltlzenB of this city, and we are depending now upon a ful fillment of the Governor's words on Oc tober 7. when, discussing the crime of primary day In the Fifth Ward, he said : "If I had been asked to act, I certainly wotild have sent troops down to the Fifth Ward." lng Party According to dispatches from Harrlsburg. William II. Ball, secretary to the Governor, said today that the request had not yet reached him, but that he would bring It to the Governor's attention when he received It. Governor Brumbaugh him self had notning to say on me suojeci to day. This unprecedented action, the demand for the protection of the State constabulary In a city election, was taken by the Town Meeting Party, It was stated, to safeguard the city from such lawlessness as reigned In the "Bloody Fifth" Ward primary elec tion. Mayor Smith has abandoned the city a 4000 policemen to factional politics, ac cording to the message sent to the Gov ernor, resulting in lawlessness and making State protection necessary. The Governor Is warned that the citizens may be com pelled to "resist force with force in the protection of their citizenship." Former Director of Transit A. Merrltt Taylor tonight will launch a vigorous cam paign against tnug rule, lie win speaK at a rally to be held In the Fifth Ward, at Majestic Hall. 623 South Fourth street, as his Initial appearance in the campaign, In a statement issued by him last night he appealed to voters to emancipate the city from the control of "political slaves of greedy contractors." "Government by mur der, violence and intimidation must be scotched;" he said. Today's testimony will concern the papers for the councllmaritc, magisterial and other minor nominees of tha Independents. APPEAL FOIt CONSTABULARY The appeal to Governor Brumbaugh, for MEETING IS WITHIN THE LAW the State constabulary, which was brought to Philadelphia for ht car strike ot 1910, was contained in a registered letter sent last night by Howard R. Sheppard, chair man of the Town Meeting party campaign committee. It reads as follows: Sir On behalf of a large number of citi zens of Philadelphia, I respectfully urge upon you the necessity as well as the P.ropI!',J' of sending a strong force of the State police Into the County of Phila delphia to take charge of tl.e maintenance of law and order on November 6 and 6. Tour Excellency Is undoubtedly In formed of the flagrant and continued maladministration nf law and order In certain sections of Philadelphia since the beginning of July. The Mrtyor has aban doned the Department of Public Safety to the control of factional leaders, resulting n an uninterrupted reign of intimidation, fill 1 ii .""'i.iwmuub upon peace .iiftcua, luuniniLunr- in onramzea raids unon nouees mrf nniui.i i..u- wherein citizens, lawfully nssembled have been blackjacked without protection Under the eyes of the constituted police authorl Repeated protests were answered by In creased lawlessness on the part of the authorities of the city. A solemn warn ing from one of the most revered clergy men of Philadelphia, that the course pur sued would result In murder, was heeded only by new nnd extraordinary brutality mi the part of the police of that district. Murder has been done. The lieutenant In charge of this district, himself a brutal assailant of helpless men, now under bond In a heavy sum upon the charge of conspiracy to murder, Is continued In undisputed control of this unfortunate dis trict and gives every evidence of an In tention to direct his men to repent their brutal and lawless acts nt the coming election, while the whole police force has been used Incessantly for the last ten days In an Impertinent nnd outrageous hounding and Intimidation of decent men. MAY USE FORCE The people of Phlladelnhln will nni ih. mlt to the degradation of their elections or to the pollution of their ballot boxes. Unless your Excellency acts In such fash Ion that these lawlers police may be kept within the boundi of law, many citizens of Philadelphia will feel that they have a right, a duty, to resist force with force In the protection of their citizenship.

The action today was In the form of M appeal from the decision htnded down fcy the Publlo Service Commission when . tha same group of business organization sought an order compelling the tranXt company to build and operate the propose line, The Service Board, In an oplnln handed down by Commissioner Ryajv MM that It did not have the .power to order ttat' construction of the line because the Char ters of the transit company and Its subsid iaries do not cover specifically the root where the lino would be constructed. The commission's ruling sustained tlw' arguments advanced by the company both at the hearing before the Service Board and before the Superior Court today. These were briefly that charter rights for the proposed line nre lacking and that, there fore, the company cannot be compelled to build. The line. If constructed, would be actually an extension of P. R, T. Route 81. whlh now runs from Third and Dock streets along 1'assyunk avenue to the eastern end of the, Passyunk bridge over the Schuylkill. The extension would begin at the bridge and tun to Sixty-third street, to Woodland Ave nue, eaBt on Woodland avenue to Fifty sixth street and north on Fifty-sixth street to Lancaster avenue, a total distance of about five miles. Four principal arguments were advance today lo combat the commission's ruling an the company's contention by C. Oscar 3eas ley. attorney for th8 business organizations. These were in brief: First. That the Public Service Com mission has the jurisdiction and auuiorltr to compel any public service corporation to exetclso any right or privilege pos sessed by Buch corporation whenever the welfare of the public requires the exer cise of such right. Second. That the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Company and Its subsidiaries do now possess charter rights and municipal consents to occupy with and extend their tracks to any street In the city. Mr. Beasley held, contrary to the conten tion of the company's attorney and of th service board, that the company possesses this right by virtue of the privileges se cured to It by the 1D07 contract. Third. That whenever a public service corporation has the right and purports to serve an entire city or district, tha Public Service Commission has the Juris diction and authority to compel such cor poration to extend Its facilities to new streets In the city or the district covered by its operation. In support of this point Mr. Beasley pre sented a long array of court decisions, one being by the court which is hearing the argument today, to the effect that the com mission has such right. Fourth. That the Public Service Com mission Is not a Judicial body, but is an administrative body only and has no right, therefore, to limit Its powers or Jurisdic tion by opinions In the nature of- Judicial Interpretations. Boyd Lee Spahr. assistant general counsel for the P. R. T., who appeared for th company today, denied all the contentions of Mr. Beasley and asserted that the flrs step toward constructing the line would bo to obtain the consent of the city, which 'as yet has not been done.
