Adams Was wrecked and two people narrowly averted serious Injury In a typical wet etreet accident at Broadway and Clay streets this morning- A motorcycle driven by Leslie E. Yelton. proceeding south on Broadway without control, Was responsible for the collision. The Adams machine was bound east on Clay, street at -a speed of approxi mately 15 miles an hour. Just after It entered the interned Lon. the motor cycle, pounding downhill at what the driver admits was 20 miles an hour, on a "slippery street, crashed Into the rear ot the automobile. In attempting to eiicape the motorcycle, the driver of the automobile accelerated his speed and danhed Into a telephone post, wrecking the machine. Telton declared he was unable to stopi although his brakes were applied. He was rolns too fast on wet pave ment, not expecting an automobile appear at the Intersection. to MAILS IS LATE IN E (Contioaw) from Tas One ) key pk snd Redland Field !ast fall, and when you to up in the press room over to Chanteys field you face 2 kinds of indwichsH, ham and cheese, witch was maybe named after some of the uth- letes or the writers ' themsclfs.

And Charley was no tickled with the act that he wanted to sign up the pedestrian till Robbie told him that in baseball Biibe Ruth is the on'.y man that is allowed to walk around the bases, and the rest of the boys is supposed to ptop at 1st base when they waik. And In the 1 6th place Charley standi for ethics in the disorganized pastime of baseball. For Inst in ' the 6th innings today Hy Myers hit a fould ball out to right field and Joe Wood piked it up and tossed It into the stand for one of the feeble minded to take it home with him, and somebody went up to Charley and ast hjm how would he like to have Joe Wood on his ball club, and he said GEJTING AM ravoLK TODAY "THE LAW OF STARTING TOMORROW A Pictwe that travels on high from the first flicker to the last amazing climax.

STRADDLES LEAGUE By lUyrnjorui Clapper With Senator Harding En Route to Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 8. (U. P.) The October rdrlve of Senator Harding against the League of Na tions appeared today to have been put Into full swing. The Repub lican nominee apparently has been advised of the Democrats' plan to fight the remainder of the campaign on the league issue, largely, and has jumped in and tried to get the of fensive before his opponents get un der way. Harding stirred the tremendous Omaha audience by saying that if elected presi dent he will never submit the league covenant to the senate again while it contains Article X. Yet Harding continues to make con cessions to pro-league sentiment. He declared In his Omaha speech that he is not completely in accord with Senator Borah, favoring some form of interna tional association which the Idaho sen ator opposes. The league is proving by far the most popular campaign issue with the crowds that turn out to greet Harding. They listen respectfully while the candidate discusses the railroads or the merchant marine, but the moment he begins to pound the league the crowd is on Its toes, cheering and waving hats. In his speech last night . Harding de clared -flatly against amnesty for po litical prisoners, saying it would be no more Justified than a grant of am nesty to yeggmen. Deportation of undesirable aliens also received the nominee's approval. "The treacherous alien within our borders must be led to the gateways and told to go," he declared, amid cheers. HARDING HECKLED MORE AXD MORE IX MISSOURI VALLEY By Geo. B. Holmei En Route With Senator Harding. Omaha, Neb.. Oct 8. (I. N. S.) Well satisfied that Iowa and Nebraska are safely Republican by big majorities. Senator Warren O. Harding swung southward today Into the closely con tested state of Missouri. ' Senator Harding has. found In this brief Invasion of the Middle West that the League of Nations is the paramount issue, and every stop, whether It has been for half a day or 10 minutes, his audiences have been loathe to let him go without Borne declaration on the league issue. Consequently, the league will receive more and more attention as be goes along. ijTESTIOHS ETABED Both in Des Moines and in Omaha the Democratic newspapers have , published questionnaires on the league Issues, ad dressed to Senator Harding and requests that he answer them. Here in Omaha the paper owned by Senator Gilbert M. Hitchcock, who managed the president's fight in the senate for the league, pub lished a series of questions to the Re publican candidate, ranging from one which asked If he was in "accord with Borah" clear down to why he voted against confirming Louis D. Brandels for the supreme court. Senator Harding largely ignored the questions, except to say that he and Sen ator Borah were not in "perfect accord. The heckling which Senator Harding received in his first day's campaigning through the Missouri valley has led him to expect more of it as he dips down intc. Missouri and Oklahoma, two states which both Democrats and Republicans alike admit to be very close. SPEAKS AT 8T. JOSEPH After spending the night In Omaha, Senator Harding's special pulled out at 9 o'clock this morning. The first sched uled speech of the day is at St. Joseph. Mo., where the tram will stop for an hour this afternoon. The senator will be taken to the auditorium for a speech and then rushed back to his train to re sume the journey to Kansas City. He WiU reach Kansas City at 6:20 o'clock. deliver a night, speech and - depart at 10 :15 for the Southwest Insistent calls for more speeches have led the Republican managers to make several additions to his program.

Glass and Houston, repeatedly conferred with committees of congress. Congress preferred not to act. The council of national defense, the war industries board, the food adminis tration, the department f agriculture, the fuel administration, the federal trade commission and other agencies kept closer touch on production and distribu tion than bad ever been attempted, and made frequent public reports a the In dustrial and agricultural fields, which HARDING FIRMLY RECONS uncontrolled motorcycle on slippery left little undonfe in the way of survey I and recommendation. In their reports and recommendations was plenty of material upon which Senator Harding and his colleagues could have acted had they 'been as eager for reconstruction then as they are to talk about It now. Meanwhile the tariff commission haa gone ahead with its work and made elaborate reports on various industries. providing he data needed for intelligent ictionin the field Its work is steady. and while Mr. Harding recently said it was not functioning, its 20 odd special reports show an immense volume of investigational work. MERCHANT MAEIXE . The buildings of the merchant marine was eminently a work of reconstruction, and this has provided the fleet for after war commerce which made the recent Jones act possible. Now the complaint is not of lack of ships, but too many. In a statement just issued by the Repub lican national committee iti said: "It is clear that the Democratic gov ernment ownership policy has overdone the thing. There is too much shipping in the world." Of course, there was no "government ownership policy." except as it rose from the necessities of the war. When the shipping board was asked j to submit plans to congress at the cfcse of the war Chairman Hurley proposed the sale of the government ships. DEMOBILIZATION WORK At the close of the war the immediate demand was for demobilization. The men overseas wanted to come home, the people wanted them home, andthe gov ernment went about the work with sys tem and dispatch. In the first month after the armistice 600,000 were released, and in one year 3,200,000 had been dis charged. It took a Republican adminis tration 10 months to demobilise 179.000 after the war with Spain. These are some of the 'outstanding facts about "reconstruction." Adminis tration efforts to frame a comprehensive program were refused, specific recom mendations were for the moet part Ig nored, but demobilization was accom- j pusnea in a surprisingly snort time ana such agencies as the federul reserve ays- tern, the farm loan board, the shipping board and the war industries board. established by the administration and scoffed at by Harding and his element in the senate, have made the way back to peace conditions comprehensively easy.

Aldxich 36, who is being held by the police for the Chicago authorities on a telegraphic warrant, clears himself there, he may be returned to Seattle to an swer a charge of issuance of an other check of $150. R. E. Ed wards, connected with Frye & Co., a -meat packing company, told Deputy District Attorney. Deicb Thurs day that he was in receipt of a commu nication from F. A. Daniels, his com pany's Seattle representative, ' that he had indorsed a check for Aldrich. Acting for Daniels, Edwards called at the jail to see Aldrich Thursday after noon, and Aldrich is said to have prom ised that he would remit the moneys? on his arrival in Chicago. Otherwise he will be returned to face Washington courts. Edwards told Delch he waa advised by Daniels that Daniels knew Aldricb's father, a meat packer of Nebraska City, Neb., and for that reason had Indorsed the check. Aldrich's father wired him $250 Tuesday to pay a check returned to J. M. Ramos of this city, Delch said that he does not doubt but Aldrich will make good the check which Daniels is holding. .Aldrich haa waived extradition and will be delivered to Chicago authorities on their arrival here. He told Deputy District Attorney Delch Thursday' that he may have made out several checks while in Chicago which have been re turned because of overdrawn account He claims, however, that he will be able to settle them after he learns the amounts. The latest check brought to light is also drawn against the Coin Exchange National bank, Staten Island, N. T. Aldrich Is said to have produced fevidence that he once had a large ac count in this bank. Sign Didn't Mean Big Melons, Too; Vendor in Trouble Nick Jsrvia, proprietor of a fruit and melon store at Second and Alder streets, had a huge pile of cantaloupes. Near the bottom of the pile the melons were all small and "those on top were all large. The eye of the passer-by, according to the laws of perspective, would fall first on the large melons on top. Then the eye would least econom ically on a large sign near the bottom of the pile. The sign read, "15 Cents 2 for 25 Cents." P. N. Forsyth, noting the sign, stopped and foreseeing a melon before his breakfast plate Friday morning, pulled a two-bit piece from his purse. The btg melons, he then learned, were more expensive than the little melons. Forsyth had Jif-vls arrested on a charge of raise advertising.
