DANVILLE MAY
LOSE ITS TEAM
Effort Being Made to Transfer
Franchise to Another
City.
[Special to Tho Tlmes-Dlspatch.) j
Danville. Va.. August 10.?Secretary
Treasurer W. M. Sncad. of the local
baseball team, ottered his resignation
to-night, and It was accepted. Mr.
Knoad regarded the crowd's criticism
of Grlllln yesterday as a criticism of
hlrn also. President Roach's resigna?
tion was not accepted. Mr. Snead
staled that he was joking about trans?
ferring tho franchise, but stated that
efforts were mill being made to trans?
fer the remaining scheduled games on
account of poor attendance. No satis?
factory offer has been received. Rob?
ert. Davlo was elected secretary-treas?
urer.
Suffolk May Get It.
(Special to Tho Times-Dispatch.]
Suffolk, Va.. August 10.?There arc
rumors that Suffolk may take over tho
francliiao of tho Danville. Virginia
League, team. Several telegratns have
been exchanged, but nothing definite
yet has resulted. It Is claimed that
Suffolk will furnish much better
crowds than have been given in Dan?
ville. I
Newport News Wnuta It.
[Special to The Tlmes-Dlspatch.] i
Newport News. Va.. August 10.?Ne?
gotiations for the transferring of tho
Ijanvlilo franchise of the Virginia
League to Newport News were opened
to-day betti uen president Roach and i
Hecretary Snead, of th> Danville club,
and President Abo Horwltz, of tho
Newport News Baseball Association,
Incorporated, which owns the Casino
Hall Park, and which operated the
local team in the Tidewater League.
Tho Danville magnates wired Presi?
dent Horwltz this afternoon, asking
the local association to make a prop?
osition for the placing of tno fran-i
chlse here.
Until he can ascertain lust what the
firoposal of tho Danville management
s President Horwltz will not make
any proposition. If the Danvlllo
magnates merely want to transfer the
team and hold th.e tranchlso then the
proposal will not be entertained. This
city has demonstrated that It can sup?
port a State League club, and the at- ,
tendanoe records this season show it
to be the third best club In the State.]
being next to Richmond an<i Peters- I
burg. For that reason the local asso?
ciation feels that It can land a berth l
In the Virginia League next year, and '
the only proposition that will be en-j
tertalnod will be the purchase outright
by It of the Danville franchise.

Toney I? Oenioerat.
The replies made yesterday to Mr.
I.edman are as follows:
Richmond. Va., August 10, 1911.
Mr. S. L. Ledman. Richmond:
Dear Sir.?Your favor of the Sth
inst., mailed to me on the 0th. is re?
ceived and contents noted. I heartily
agree with you in the assertion, "that
every candldato Tor public office ought
to be willing to give to his consti?
tuency his views on public questions?
questions of public Import."
I desire to state that I have boen a
Democrat all of my life, and have
abided by the Democratic platform. I
believe that the time-honored prin?
ciple of Democracy, "local option." is
the best solution of the liquor riuos
tioh. allowing each community to gov?
ern Itself. This question has been
discussed time and again In our con?
vention by very able leaders, and their
decisions have Invariably been favor?
able to "local option." so much so that
It was embodied Into our platform and
still remains. Therefore, being a can?
didate upon the Democratic platform. !
subject to Its primary, 1 respectfully
decline to pledge my support to eith?
er proposition or bill as set forth in
the petition accompanying your letter.
Very respectfully, etc..
(Signed) D. D. TONEY.
Folkcs In Opposition.
I would vote against both proposi
Hons If elected to the General Assem?
bly. Against the first for the reason
that If the people In "dry" territory,
who want liquor, will buy liquor, they
have as much right to have the same
shipped to them from Richmond and
Petersburg as Baltimore and Wash?
ington.
I am opposed to the second proposi?
tion because the policy of local option
seems to be best, and the party Con?
vention?: of the party, whose nomlneo
I am for tho Senate, have declared 'n
all Its conventions for many years for
"local option." I see no reason why
1 should "bolt" the party on this doc?
trine, and I will not do so.
With great respect for the signers
of these two propositions, 1 am.
Yours respectfully, etc.,
(Signed) E. C. FOLKES.
3Ir. Cox*m Position.
I am In receipt of your letter ol
August 8. with Inclosure.
You desire to know how I would
vote upon certain questions if I wera
elected to tne House of Delegates
lrom the city of Richmond.
Your first Inquiry Is (here the query
n3 to shipment of liquor Into local op?
tion territory is repeated).
My answer to this inquiry Is that I
would vote against such a bill. Until
Congress acts upon this matter any
legislation by the Stale would be of
no effect and would deprive the State
authorities of such control of the busi?
ness as they may now or hereafter
have.
Your next question is as follows
there the query as to the State-wide
enabling act is repeated).
My reply to this 13 that I would
vote against such n measure. I have
always stood for the principle of local
option. The proposed bill is opposed
to this principle and Is certainly con?
trary to the spirit of our present State
Constitution: and. assuredly, in tho
present condition of the finances of
the State, no person can so vote. For
this act to be effective there must he
ntteched thereto some condition as to
inisir.tr tlie revenue of which the state
v. ould be thus deprived, and you do
not Indien to upon whom or where this
burden would 'all.
In addition to these reasons I nm
tunning as a Democrat subject to a
Democratic primary, and the last plat?
form of the party declares for tho
principle of "local option."
Yours truly, etc..

rules, "he may take who "has the pow?
er," and "he may Keep who can," havo
been the guiding principles In Inter?
national disputes. Might, not right,
has prevailed.
To Eliminate Wnr.
Traolng tho history of International
arbitrament from tho peaco of West?
phalia down to Tho Uaguo confer?
ences, Mr. Bruce pointed out that there
has been a steadily Increasing dispo?
sition,to eliminate the horrors of war,
and to formulate an international ju?
risprudence. Itapld transportation is
bringing the nations closer together.
So ore the morning newspapers, where
at the breakfast table one reads In pa?
rallel columns of the proceedings of
the lawmaklng bodies of all nations.
' For Instance, the people of the United
States arc almost as familiar with Ae
| quith and Lord Lanedowno as with
Cannon. Clark and Underwood.
The newspapors and other Influences
are bringing the nations Into close
contact and Intercourse, and corre
j spondlngly arc Increasing International
I differences In various matters. "Just
j as sure as the sun shines." said Mr.
, Bruce, "there will bo a court to decide
I the disputes of nations, modeled after
. the courts which settle controversies
between man and man."
i Mr. Bruce detailed fully the origin
and acts of The Hague Peace Con?
ferences, the first of which was called
by the Czar of Russia for the real
: purpose of chec. ng the increase of
! national armaments. Russia later
I abided by the decision of Tho Hague
; tribunal, when that body decided
] against Russia in a ca.se which came
' up in the Russo-Japanese war, when
I a Russian cruiser fired on English
I ships. Thus "the power of truth
among men" was recognized.
In the permanent court ot arbitra?
tor., said Mr. Bruce, there are the j
defects whloh always accompany such
a mode ot settlement of disputes. This
body, which Ib really not a court, but
a panel, has made good. It has been
valuable in composing controversies to
eomo of which the United States has
! been a party.
President Taft was described by the
speaker a? having goae further in
j the advocacy and advancement of ar?
bitration of International difficulties
i than any other President. In his ad
I ministration two treaties of arbltra
1 tlon have been signed, one between
. France and the United States, ofle
between the latter and Great Britain.
These arc pending the Senate's rati?
fication, and Mr. Bruce expressed th<!
earnest hope that these treaties will
! be ratified.
Defects Criticized.
1 The International court of arbltra
tlon was criticized for its defects by
Mr. Bruce, who pointed out that thj
, judges are not permanent. Scrv'ng
but onco. they do little toward cstab- j
lishlng principles for the future. They
; regard themselves as representatives
of the nations from which they come. !
"I believe the opinion of the world '<
Is advancing toward a permanent i
court," he Bald.
Referring to the second Hague peaco
conference, he said that It established
t prize court of limited jurisdiction,
only acting in time of war In cases
i of the capture of vessels on tho seas.
The courts of England ana the United
States have different conceptions of
international law from those enter?
tained in the continental countries.
This has brought up tho question as
to what law shall govern, and it has ;
I been decided that the International i
; court of arbitration shall determine i
! controversies by the natural principles:
of right and justice, which seems
proper In each case. The court thua
; nracticclly formulates Its own law. i
> This establishes a precedent for tho!
; future. The sole obstacle preventing
: the establishment of a permanent In-1
; ternatlonal court of plenary power
: and jurisdiction is that r.o satisfac- ]
: tory method has teen found for tho
sele.-tlon of the Judges for such a.
? court.
"As certainly as sap rises in tho'
! spring time." said Mr. Bruce, "so sure
: ly will the people demand the creation

Given Vote of Thanks,
i lipon motion of Major Grlflln. a ris?
ing vote of thanks was tendered Mr.
Bruce for his powerful address, which
made a deep Impression upon the as?
sociation.
The members of the association have
enjoyed greatly the varied social at?
tractions of the place. The older mem
! hers gather In groups and many cele
i brnted characters and incidents are
revived by the well known members
of the bar. chief among whom Is Harry
St. George Tucker, who always has a
score of people assembled about him.
Richmond lawyers have figured con?
spicuously at this session. Everybody
is charmed with the courteous and
I effective way In which Judge Chris
I tian has presided over this session,
i All that he has said has been apt and
to the point. None of his rulings was
I appealed from.
Everybody agrees that Secretary
: .lohn B. Minor, of Richmond, may have
his oflice perpetually. His wonderful
grasp upon the routine work of the
association, his fine courtesy und wil?
lingness to be of all possible assist?
ance to those who need his help, cause
him to be one of the most popular, as
well as one of the most efficient olB
cers the association ever has had.
Hill Montague and S. S. P. Pattason,
of Richmond, have taken a leading
part In the debates and have beer,
foremost In securing the passage of
; constructive reform measures.
The Annual Ilaiiqiiet.
The event of the evening was the,
annual banquet. After an elaborate
menu an unusual feature took place,
when, as pr?arr.mged, the women of
; tho association! superbly gowned,
marched Into the hall to the air of
"Dixie,'' where they were greeted en?
thusiastically by the members of tho
bar standing. The scene .was full of
color and brilliancy. In the meantime,
tho University of Virginia alumni, of
whom many were present, enlivened
tlte occasion with university songs and
cheers tor various prominent members.
Judge Geo. L. Christian, toastmaster,
opened the speechmaklng with most
appropriate and humorous remarks. He
then Introduced Helm Bruce, of Louis?
ville, tho guest of honor, who deliver?
ed a clever after-dinner speech, scin?
tillating with anoedpte. . He told of
a magic lantern shew In Lexington
many years ago in which there was
hilarity and jollity. By accident a pic?
ture of the recumbent statue of Gen?
eral Lee was thrown on the screen.
There wag Instant, reverent silence.
This, thought Mr. Bruce, was typical
of the Virginia attitude toward General
Lee.
Professor Armlstoad Dobie, of tin
University' of Virginia, followed. He
spoke on the "Young Lawyer." In semi
sutrlcal vein he sketched the vicissi?
tudes and amazing encounters of tho
newly-fledgod barrister.
Judge Robert R. Prontlj, of the
State, Corporation Commission, was tho
third speakor. Hlo theme was "Aftar
Dinner Speeches," and was delightful.
Ovation for Wine.
John S. Wise, of New York, received
a wonderful ovation when he rose to
speak His speech was characteristic.
He said he saw few men before him
who were prominent when he went to
the bar, in 1SG7. He said he was jflad
to see Clerk P, H. Winston, of the
Richmond Daw and Equity Court, who
was sheriff when Mr. Wise started out
as a lawyer. He said the only time
he was called "Wise of York."
was when he came back "sticking his
nose In Virginia poljt.es." Ho paid a
tine tribute to Virginia. He apoke of
the Virginia bar of the oid days, and
paid a auperb tribute to his law
i teacher. John B. Minor.
