    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.

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."

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,

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 promise of John A Phillips, vice
president ot the State Federation of Labor,
and several other laborltes to "deliver" tho
labor vote to the candidates on the "Frog
Hollow" ticket was unsparingly condemned

Wednesday and told him that organized
labor was solidly for the "fifty-fifty" ticket

the meeting and Mate that In announcing
the support of labor for the "Frog Hollow"
candidates they represented no opinion but
their own.
After listening to unsparing condemna
tion of his conduct lu heading the delega
tion. Mr Phillips said:
I did not represent the pilntln-. trades
of the Stnto Federation of Labor, but
only myself as an Individual. I pledged
no vote for the Republican party but my
own.
A call upon Democrats to be on .guard
on election day against fraud and Intimida
tion was Issued last night by ex-Magistrate
Joseph S. Boyle, reorganization Democratic
leader of West Philadelphia. Mr. Boyle's
statement was a call for a rally of Inde
pendents and Democrats to the Town Meet
ing ticket.
Vnre-Smith-Dcutsch followers of the

known Vare men for the purpose of liood
winking the voters of the ward Into be
lieving that the party was not affiliated
with Isaac Deutsch. But the meeting closed

Fight for New Qrosstowfe
Route Renewed Befowv
Higher Jurisdiction ,; ,c
APPEAL FROM RUtW,
The long fight to compel the PhltoML
phla Rapid Transit Company to pnvim ,
direct trolley connections between Huw
and West Philadelphia by the construct
of a cross-town line pn Fifty-sixth M4a,'
Woodland avenue nnd Sixty-third s-iitr,'",
was renewed tdday before the Su4,'
Court by attorneys representing twtjp- '1
one business organizations In West, FMtos
delphla. 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.
