ChlcagoOct, t. One "bonehead" play haa caused the directors of the Na Mortal baaeball league more trouble than the final settlement of any cham ' plonshlp yet conducted In the history of the senior organization. Chicago was in a fair way to win the pennant without a decision, but the situation may now return even more complex. , If New York decides to play the game" over with Chicago af ter the series with Boston, such a. thing as a tie in percentage with Pittsburg as .the other club can occur. New York has two more games to play with Bos ton, today and tomorrow. If the Giants lose one of these games and then win over the Cubs, New York, Chicago and Pittsburg will be tied for first place. However, If Chicago . wins over . Mc Graw'a men In the final game, provid . ed New York demands that? the tie be Flayed off, the championship will be ully established. " All that the Giants can do by wln- : nlng today and tomorrow Is to tie. with Chicago.

Since you have intro duced the plan of propounding queries, will you in your address at the Armory tonight, kindly answer the following: First. Since the nation requires a guarantee of its deposits in. national banks, since the state does and the city of Portland docs, why does Mr. Taft oppose such a guarantee of bank deposits for the farmer, the workingman, the widow and the orphan? Second. Since the convention that nominated Mr. Taft. rejected, by a vrtte of eight to one, a plank declaring for direct election of senator by direct vote of the people, what can the people of Oregon, who are overwhelmingly in favor of that plan, expect in that behalf from Mr. Taft and a Republican congress? Third. Since Mr. Taft is promising revision of the tariff but in aiding that "some duties should he increased,"' since every instance nf revision by your party ha resulted in a. big advance in duties, and since one of these increases cam after a tariff commission had recommended to congress a 20 per cent redaction on H duties, what assurance is there that Mr. Taft rd a congress of your party will give us a revision that n-ij reduce? - Fourth. Since the late congress rejected the recommendations of the Rivers and Harbors congress for a p pre priat ions for harbors and inland waterways, and refused to pay the expenses of the conmvs sion fer ro aberration of national resources, and since rejected an anti-injurctton bill, rejected the cbtld labor .bill, rejected the cam paign publicity bill, rejected in fact all the important measures ir wh'ch the people clamored, what reaon havf trt that Mr. Taft snd another congrf s er ynur party w::i t'p bur?
