RAIN HALTS ALL
TRI-STITE GAMES
Senators Will Have to Play Sev
eral Double-Headers During
Next Two Weeks
Ror the second time this season
nearly all games in ;he Tri-State Lea
gue had to be postponed on account
of rain. The Harrisburg club is now
scheduled to play half a dozen bar
gain day matinees. The first will be
staged in this city this afternoon.
Then at Allentown Saturday another
double-header will be taken on with
the Teutons.
Eddie Hooper, the newly-appointed
pilot of the Red Roses, has started his
expected sliakeup by releasing two
players. Third Baseman Hopke, who
was secured from the Utica club, of
the New York State League, and First
Baseman William Yale have been
handed pink slips.
Yale had been sent to Lancaster by
President Graham, when Foster re
fused to join that club. Roy Doty,
lately with "lazy" Hoffman's crusad
ers, has been signed to cover the dif
ficult corner for Hooper's aggrega
tion.
' Charley Herzog, manager of the
Cincinnati Reds, has promised to turn
over some promising recruits to Hoop
er. The Roses need pitchers and need
them bad and a change is expected
daily.
' Manager Jimmy Jackson, of Wil
mington, has signed Bill Harkins, a
pitcher for the Troy club. The mana
ger of the 1913 champions is after two
more pitchers. He is dissatised with
the work of his pitching department
and has decided to make a change.
PLAYGROIM) INTRUDERS ARE
REPRIMANDED BY MAYOR
Several boys accused of trespass
against the city ordinance that for
bids boys more than 16 to go on the
playgrounds are being heard before
Mayor Royal this afternoon. The boys
are accused of refusing to leave the
Calder and Penn street grounds and
with interfering with little girls at
Play.
PROGRESS TO PLAY LINGLES
TOWN
Progress and Linglestown will play
at the latter place Saturday and the
match will probably draw a large
crowd. Alcorn and Smith will be the
Progress battery; Garverich will pitch
for Linglestown and Atticks will be at
the receiving end.

ATHLETICS' WORLD
PEIHIIT DISGUSTED
Just Wouldn't Unfurl When It Felt
So Like a Wet
Hen
Philadelphia, July 16.—Scenes sur
rounding the raising of the Athletics'
fourth world's championship pennant
yesterday were about as gay and
blithesome as an execution.
The small incident of playing two
games with the Browns had to be
abandoned because of the rain. ■
Even while the players were march
ing to the pole with a band of wet
and miserable musicians trying hard
to play some inspiring piece ahead,
Shibe Park looked like a freshet had
struck it.
The players and musicians had to
I pick their way through the wet turf
] and avoid the lagoons and bogs that
, beset their path. Captain Ira Thomas
of the Athletics, and Manager Branch
Rickey, of the Browns, elevated the
muslin banner to the top. Even the
pennant was disgusted and refused
to unfurl. It wrapped Its folds around
the pole and felt just like a wet hen.
It was the third straight day that
rain spoiled baseball plans, and the
Mack schedule is all twisted out of
I gear. In addition, there is a financial
loss of several thousand dollars which
Messrs. Shibe and Mack will have to
asfume.
Flag-raising day had been exten
sively advertised, while much money
was spent for music and fireworks.
Under the circumstances, a three-flay
postponement, which includes an un
usual celebration, cuts a hole in the
club's bank account that will take
it some time to repair.
Motorcyclists to Race For
American Championship
By Associated Press
St. Louis, Mo., July 16. —The first of

j vessel when he was thrown from his

to abandon the trip to St. Louis. C. J.
Wagner, of the same city, was thrown
at Hammond, Ind., and suffered a
hroken nose and lacerations of the
face, but continued his rlife.
Curtin Heights Club
Organizes For Sport
Another church athletic club has been
added to the list that is forming in
Harrisburg. The latest is the Curtin
Heights Methodist Church Club, wnich
was organized last night. Plans were
laid for a participation in every form
of athletics. One of the features that
the club will work out this Fall will
be cross-country long-distance runs,
and possibly the old game of hare and
hounds, which gives zest to a cross
country canter, will be indulged in.
Basketball and football will occupy the
attention of the club to a considerable
degree this Fall and winter.
George Bufflngton was unanimously
I'elected president of the club; Chester
I Bufflngton. vice-president; Charles
Frank, secretary, and Robert Loban,

CITY WINS OUT IN
i TAX LICENSE CASE
Judge McCarrell Sustains Solicitor
Seitz in Famous type
writer Appeal
anoe agency license tax problem that
was argued In the Dauphin county
courts on Tuesday. The same pro
position is involved in the life in
surance question as in the typewriter
[problem, they contend.
| The opinion which was handed
'down by Additional Law Judge Mc
iCarrell in the Smith-Premier case in
cidentally is a decided victory for City
| Solicitor D. S. Seltz. It was based
|on the city's effort to collect license
| taxes for the years 1905-06-07-08. The
! collections were based on the provis
ions of an ordinance passed in 1903
which stipulated that the purpose of
ordinance Was for "general revenue."
The language was taken from the
act of 1889, but this was amended in
1901 in such way as to strike out the
clause for "general revenue purposes."
The fact that the ordinance specitled
"for general revenue," in violation of
the language of the amended legisla
tive act was held to class the meas
ure as a police regulation rather than
a general revenue ordinance accord
ing to the typewriter company. The
i difference lay in the fact for a police
i regulation only such fee can be
charged as will pay for the conduct
of the office of collector, etc. City
i Solicitor Seitz contended that the
clause "for revenue purposes" was in
advertently allowed to remain in the
city ordinance and that it was ob
vious that the city meant to levy an
ordinance for that purpose.
Allows Verdict Appeal.—ln a brief
order handed down to-day the Dau
phin county court allowed the appeal
from Alderman Hoverter's judgment
iin the case of the Douglas Co-opera-
Itive Investment Company against W.
I H. Craighead, and the other officers
lof the company publishing the "Har
[risburg Verdict." The sum of S2OO
was involved and the Verdict attor
neys contended that the alderman had
no jurisdiction in the case.
Reverse Judge Henry
in Will Case Appeal
DauphinCountyCourt appeals figured
considerably in the decisions handed
down by the Superior Court yesterday
afternoon, among which was an appeal
fioni Judge C. V. Henry, I.<ebanon, who
specially presided, and in which the
court's judgment was reversed. City
Solicitor D. S. Seitz was the fortunate
attorney for the appellant In the case.
The question was an appeal from
Judge Henry s decision when excep
tions were (lied to the report of the
auditor who distributed the estate of
Katherine Lightner, an aged seam
stress. Miss Lightner for years re
sided with the family of Harvey
DeWalt, superintendent of the United
I Ice and Coal Company. By her origi
nal will she bequeathed SBOO each to
the Misses Mabel G. and Helen E.
DeWalt, daughters of the superintend
ent, and SIOO to Annie Cottingham.
The residue she left to the Home for
the Friendless, Fifth and Muench
streets. Eleven days prior to her
death she added a codicil where she
reduced the bequests to the Misses
j DeWalt and left the remainder of the
will unchanged, thereby adding about
S9OO additional to the bulk that was
left to the charitable institution. Mr.
Seitz, attorney for the Misses DeWalt,
excepted to the auditor's report, but
Judge Henry overruled the exceptions,
j Then tho appeal was taken, the city
solicitor contending that the act of
1555 specifically provided that no
changes of will to a charitable insti
tution could be made within one calen-

Other Cases
The other cases were In the action
of the I. D. West vs. A. P. Hanna and
the Washington township election ap
peal.
The former was an action brought
by Isaac D. West against A. F. Hanna
to recover a certain property near
Lykens which was desired for right of
way and in which it was alleged that
the question of title was more or less
vague. Judge McCarrell issued bind
ing instructions to the jury to return
a verdict for Hanna and this was ap
pealed. The decision of the court be
low was reversed and the issue directed
to be submitted to trial by jury.
The Washington township case grew
out of the objection to the election
whereby the question of the division of
the township was raised because of the
alleged illegal fsrm of the ballot. The
Dauphin County Court decided that
the election was legal and the appel
late court sustained this view.

Venango County Judge
Is Upheld in Refusing
All Liquor Licenses
Special to The Telegraph
Philadelphia, July 16.—The discre

well in refusing all applications for
liquor licenses in Venango county be
cause of their non-necessity, based on
"the growing sentiment against the
sale of liquor," was sustained in the
Superior Court yesterday by President
Judge Rice.
Judge Criswell's ruling closed twelve
saloons in Oil City, seven in Franklin
and one in Rouseville.
Remonstrances had been filed
against every one of the applicants,
the sole objection being that no neces

objection against the liquor traffic gen
erally and that in point of economics,
morals and law and order, the grant
ing of any liquor license would be
detrimental to the community.
The liquor men contended that it
was an abuse of judicial discretion for
Judge Criswell to refuse all the appli
cations on the sale ground of non
necessity, based exclusively upon the
conclusion that there is a growing
sentiment against the sale of liquor.
The Legislature, they maintained, was
the proper body to decide what weight
should be given to such sentiment,
and that no judge had any right to
form his own conclusion.
Judge Rice, who goes into a long
review of the liquor license question,
said that the decree of the lower court
was not made arbitrarily or solely
upon his own conclusion of the grow
ing sentiment against the liquor busi
ness.
