OFFERED BY ATTY WHITMAN
, Vindication was not forthcoming to
whe Randolph A. C. baseball team and
yesterday afternoon they bowed their
"heads to the Italians in a 5 to 2 com
bat. A few week ago at Randolph
the Orange county lads hold the Ine.il
aggregation of ball toners to a tie
game, Gay, their southpaw, allowing
but one hit.. Heralded as confident of
victory, the Randolph team threw a
score "into the local ramp ; but after a
few innings, Beaton had them sized up
and was in full control of his steam
plow.
Randolph drafted a pitcher, Paul
Scampini, manager, player, captain and
pitcher of the Montpelier I. A. C. Out
aide of Scampini's exhibition of play
ing there was not much variance from
liatlessness. His work in every de
partment was a revelation to the crowd,
; which took an enthusiastic interest in
the artifices of the 'former Barre boy.
A braco of two-baggers in his first two
trips to the plate amazed the gather
ing and for several moments bewildered
pitcher Beaton, who was hoping for an
easy time in disposing of him.
Ban Beaton was an enigma for the
llandolph organization. He ' allowed
' them but four hits and struck out ten
men. He fanned every player to fate
with the exception of. Scampini and Vail.
In the opposition works was Gay, the
young southpaw, who has been lauded
to the skies for some time past. He did
not faro as well as ' expected, being
, hammered for efcht solid hits. His
efforts might have lieen more fruitfully
rewarded with an airtight combination
performing behind him. seven aiiscues

Sl'lie Orange county lads scored first.
In1 the second round, Scampini opened
fire with a two-bagger and took t'ie

Notes of the Game.
Clare, the local shortstop, gave a dar
ing exhibition of base running in the
fifth inning. He rafped a drive over
Scott's head. Ordinarily the hit was
only good for two bases, but he con
tinued tor third and mnde it, as the
throw to head him off was a little wide.
The third baseman dropped the ball at
his feet and Clare conned the situation
but for a flash of a second and romped
home before the baseman recovered his
wits, i
Kibbee, the visiting catcher, i an old
university of Vermont player. He act
ed as backstop to the team that Reul-
bach pitched for. Since leaving college
he has played independent ball consid
erably. He is instructor in a southern
school and is spending the summer iu
the vicinity of Randolph. ,
Beaton was not obliged at any tme
to exert himself. He was holding him
self in reserve for Saturday's contest.
Vail, who covered first base for Ran
dolph, is well known in baseball circles
in this state. He won a reputation
several years ago pitching for the Ran
dolph high school team. ' He entered
Dartmouth and pitched , some on the
freshman team, lie is now at Middle
bury, having been one of the college's
consistent pitchers. About a year ago
he was troubled with his twirling arm
and has not been able to perform on the
mound with the same efficiency as of
old.
The putout Bottigi was credited with
in the last inning off Scampini's fly was
one of the longest drives ever made on
that field when a fielder has been cred
ited with the putout. -
Williams seems to play all infield po
sitions with the same smoothness. Yes
terday he started out at second and was
shifted to third when Davidson with
drew', being indisposed. He handled both
positions capacbly.

New York, Aug. 22. Charging that
"some members" of the police depart
ment knowingly permitted the escape
of "Gyp the Blood" and "Lefty Louie,"
the missing - gunmen indicted for the
murder of Herman Rosenthal, District
Attorney Whitman last night announced
the offer of a reward of $5,000 for the
capture of the fugitives or $2,500 for
the capture of either.
Whitman stipulated that the reward
was not offered to any member of the
New York police department or anybody
in the employ of the police. He said
he was actuated by no feeling of un
kindness toward the police but by the
belief that if proper work had been done
tho indicted men would now be is cus
tody. "I cannot escape the conclusion that
some members of the police department
have known, if they do not know now
the whereabouts of these murderers." ba
declared.' 'Whitman also said the gen
erosity of private citizens made the rc-
wum oiler possible, which probably will
he announced in circulars to be sent
throughout the country.
One of hitman s reasons for sus
pecting the police allowed the gunmen
to escape was indicated last night, when
it became known that Sara Schepps on
Wednesday told the grand jury that
three detectives from New York police
headquarters recognized him while he
was hiding at Fallsburg, N. Y,
It is understood Schepps told the jury
he and the detectives knew each other
well," and they accepted his facetious
declaration he was ''Mr. Smith" with
mock apologies for disturbing him.
uyp the Blood and Lefty Louie
are believed to have been at one time
in the same vicinity,
further details o( bcheppsr testimany
involving roice Lieutenant Charles BecK
er, accused as the instigator of the tnur
dcr, have been learned.
Schepps declared that Becker Bpeak
ing of Rosenthal said on one occasion,
I am clad he is out of the way. the
our should have been killed long ago; no
one cares about Rosenthal anyway."
Schepps testified further that Becker
told him to tell Jack Rose, then in hid.
ing after the murder, not to surrender
himself, declaring, '"I can control Wal
do and no one need be afraid. Don't
worry about the district attorney either.
I can prevent him from doing anything.
The district attorney cannot do ny
thing without evidence and IU see that
the police hold out the evidence."
The news from Washington that Wil
liam J. Flynn, chief of the New York
division of the federal secret service,
would resign temporarily in order to
assist in the graft investsigation by the
aldermanie committee caused a sensa
tion in police circles.
Flynn was formerly second deputy po
lice commissioner in New York, head
ing the detective bureau, but resigned,
stating publicly he did so because his
powers were curtailed in closing gam
tiling resorts. He declared . then that
when he furnished evidence several high
police officials were dishonest, nothing
was done so he resigned to "maintain his
self respect."

SPORTING NOTES.
Neal Ball, the former' Cleveland man,
is a handy man for the Red Sox to
have around. In the few games that
he has played lately his hitting and
base running have been very much in
evidence.
C'ashion is pitching great ball for
Washington. His work of late indi
cates that Griffith has found a young
stcr full of promise. In a year or two
the Washington people expect to see him
making a name such as Johnson has
made.
Ihe .National league clubs " can see
but little difference between the three
leading teams of the American league
race, and it makes little differene to
them which club wins. Every one of
the teams has -a star pitcher capable
of working three games a week if nec
essary and coming from behind are at
least two hitters of note with each club
Boston has Joe M'ood to call on for
the world's series, Washington John
ston and Philadelphia Coombs.
Maxwell Bank, a Now York lad, won
the eastern point tournament for young
sters recentlv. The cud was present
ed by Julius Fleischmann, formerly may
or of Cincinnati. Julius, jr., was a ?om-
petitor but lost to a Washington lad.
The defeat of Touchard by Little is
regretted by many followers of tennis
since it practically means that this year
the former will not be ranked among
the first ten. His career in the world
of tennis has been one of rapid stride?,
and if he is set back this season it is
hoped that next year, after having re
covered his health, he will again figure
in the top flight. He has done excel
lent work this year for a man that has
not been m good health.
Smith, the Brockton outfield, put on
a bitr leasue uniform yesterday. He
was shipped to New York for Maloncy.
He is a left-hander and it is likely that
Wolverton will give him a good work
out soon.""'
There is a possible chance tliat Mc
Millan will Mot leave the Rochester
team to go to the Highlanders. There
has been considerable talk about this
youngster and he himself is anxious to
break away from the International
league. Rochester is now having
tough fight to maintain its lead in the
race and therefor Manager Ganzel de
sires to retain him. McMillan has been
the player who has kept the Rochester
aggregation on the top. '
Joe Jeannette stepped over into New
ark one- night this week and disposed
of two men in one ring. Bill Tate of
Tennessee, with hopes of killing the
fierson from Hoboken, was put in the
and of dreams in two rounds. Battling
Brooks, who imagined that he could do
even better tlian Tate, was a dead is
sue before the first round was over.
They say that Russell Ford is the
"cock of the walk" around the Yankee
clubhouse. Never before was ha con
sidered much of a hitter but this year
he is hitting over .300 and takes the only
opportunity lie may ever be embraced
with to annate M some or tne nittirs I
that were accustomed to crab him.
Jimmy Esmond of the Cincinnati club
is to be sold to the Baltimore Orioles,
where he will play at third base.
uregg of the aps, Johnson ot Wash
ington and Walsh of the White Sox are
three of the greatest pinch hitters in
the game to-day. '

New York Postoffiee Clerk Under Arrest
for Robbing N. E. Mails.
New York. Aug. 22. Following the
mailing of a special delivery letter con
taining four marked bills, addressed to
Burlington, Vt., toward J. Collins, a
foreman in charge of New England mails
in the central postonice here, was ar
rested yesterday, arraigned and com
milted to the Tombs In default of bail.
The postal authorities believe the ar

bery of New England mails during the
past three months, inousanns of peo
ple in New. England have suffered untold
losses through failing to get valuable
man matter.
Each of the 40 clerks handling Nev

Washington, Aug. 22. Senator Cum
mins of Iowa, hitherto counted as a
Taft adherent, is . preparing to support
Koosevelt, if he can do so without leav
ing the Republican party. Senator Cum
mins, it is understood, will make public
his position when he returns to Iowa
upon the adjournment of Congress. ies
terday he was silent on the matter, and
this information has only leaked out.
It is stated that Senator Cummins has
read the . evidence In tho cnaes of the
contested delegates to the Chicago con
vention, and has become convinced that
the president's renomination was fraud
ulent. Always reckoned as a Progres
sive, the step to Roosevelt was easy,
but the difficulty has been that the Iow-a
senator has not wanted to leave the
party. It is said that he has told Roose
velt that he will work for him and for
Roosevelt electors if Roosevelt will ac
cept his support on the terms just out
lined. The matter is still under consideration.
indirectly the order to run came from
Colonel Roosevelt himself. "The colonel
desires a complete ticket in the field
from this county," said Dr. Zwick.

INCREASE IN SPELTER.
Statement by United States Geological
Survey Shows Large Production
for First Half of 1912.
The United States geological survey
has just made public the statistics of
production of all zinc smelters operating
during the first six months of lOli!.
These figures, compiled by C. E. Sieben
thal of the survey and including figure
. e . i. . l .... e . i -.:.. 1. i
the production of spelter from domestic
ore in that period was 159.052 short tons,
and from foreign ora 0.544 short tons, a
total of 10(l,4S)d tons of primary spelter,
compared with 140,100 tons for the first'
half of 19U and with 14UJU tons lor
the last half of 11)11.
If the production , for the remainder
of this year keeps pace with that of the
first six months, the output . lor luia
will be about S30.000 tons, approximate
ly 40,000 tons greater than the produc
tion in lfll, and more than double the
production of any year prior to 1004.
The apparent consumption for the first'
six months of -this year was 150,046;
short tons, against 145,157 tons for the
last half of 1011 and 134,002 tons for the
first half of 1011.
There was a falling off in the imports
of , zinc ore during the period, 27,04
short tons, containing 12528 tons of zinc,
having been imported in the first six'
months of this year, against 38,007 tons
of ore, containing 17,112 tons of zine,,
in the last half of 1011. and 37,885 tons
of ore, containing 15,028 tons of zinc,
in the first half of 1911.
, Kansas led in the quantity of spelter,
made in the first six months of 1012,
with 52.485 short tons; Illinois was next,
with 44.224 short tons; Oklahoma third,
with 36.010 Bhort tons; the remainder,
33,777 short tons, having been supplied
by the other spelter-producing states.
Inquiry made by the geological survey
at the "beginning of tie present year
showed that the total capacity of the
smelters reporting production was 81,582
retorts, and that the construction oi
15,868 additional retorts in 1012 was
contemplated. Allowing an annual av-
"As for setting aside the will, any praKe 0 414 tons per retort, the spelter
lawyer of the slightest experience would
not advise that it could oe possibly done.
All of the provisions strictly conform
to the laws of the state. 1 In reference
to the article of the will providing for
post-humous children, it must be said
that while the fund of $3,000,000 seems
to be rather small in view of the large
estate Col. Astor left, and as compared
with the sum William Vincent Astor
will receive, nevertheless, a large for
tune was left for the heir's maintenance
and education. It is likely, moreover,
that this trust estate will quadruple
by the time the child is 21 years old."

capacity of the 81,582 retorts for th
first six months would be 173,362 ton,
less than 7,000 tons in excess of the ac;
tual production of primary spelter. Tak
ing into consideration the secondary mai
terials, such as zinc drosses resmelted at
the regular smelters, the low-grade car
bonates recently smelted, and the im
possibility of operating continuously at
maximum capacity, it is evident that)
the smelting capacity of tho plants in
operation has been strained to tha tit-,
most during - the last six months, and
that any added retorts must have been
put into operation as fast as completed
The price of spelter ranged from 6.2S
cents a pound at St. Louis in January
to 7 cents in June. As the average New
York price for January was but 0.79
cent a pound higher than tho average
London price for January, and as the!
duty on spelter is 1.375 cents a pound,
it is interesting to note that tho monthly
summary of the bureau of statistics for
January gives the imports of spelter fo
that month as 4,377,300 pounds. , -

' Smoke Sickle Plug.
You'll like it because it's good, and stick to it
because it's best.
Sickle Plug keeps its original flavor and moisture
better than smoking tobacco in any other form.
The moisture and flavor are pressed in by machinery
and kept in by the tobacco-leaf wrapper. This nat
ural protection is far better than such aids as
cans, bags or other artificial covers.
Just fill your pipe and see.
