I'ortliind Suit Lake series starts to

(United Press staff correspondent)
New York, Aug. 22. Two recruit
liurlers are the heroes today ill Pitts
burg. One of them, Klin'er Jacobs,
came through a contest against the
great Alexander yesterday with a vic
tory In tne first name of a double
header and the other, Billy Kvaas, set I
tne rhiiiies down wita another defeat
in the secoud clontcst.
iliilndelphia got to Jacobs for sev
en hits and scored 3 runs, but his term
inates were pounding Alexander at op
portune moments, and thanks to a
double with the bases filled, he had lit
' tie trouble winning.
This is Jacobs' first year in the biir
show. He mnde his entry last spring
' Irom the International league. Ho fur
- lie has been used little, having been
i suved mainly to finish games.
(.vans' performance is more remark
Bide. This youngster, college prod
uct, pitched bis first big league game
when he went against the l'hillies. His
previous effort was several days ago
when he finished a gnme by pitching
oue inning after it apparently had beeu
lo-t.
Yesterday's double defeat shunted
the Thillies into third place in the Na
tional race and sent the llraves back to
necouri place because of their victory
over Cincinnati. At tho same time the
!mlgers were dropping a game to the
Cubs and the Stailings erew again has
become a menace to the chances of
W'ilLier Robinson's pennant chasers
Hostou gained a little on Chicago
through the victory over Cleveland,
while the Yanks were taking the White
Hok to a drubbing. New ork s vic
tory, however, shows without a ques
tion that Hill Donovan's charges have
recovered their lost equilibrium and
they are likely to prove troublesome.
Chicago is ready for another start to
day ngiiinst the New Yorkers.
New York's cripples are nearly all
Colorado Springs, Colo., Aug. 22.
Keenly realizing that his title of light
weight champion will be in danger,
Freddie Welsh is putting in some great
licks at training in preparation for his
20-round Labor day battle with Charley
White.
Welsh is on tho rond every morning at
7 o'clock with the trainer and makes
between six and eight miles. This is
followed by an hour's work in his train
ing quarters and eight rounds of boxing
with his sparring partners. Welsh box
ed two rounds with Benny Chnve'r. and
three rounds each with Jack Brnddon
and Battling Keddy, displaying all his
cleverness beforo a crowd of 300 enthus
iastic fight fans.
White will not start his boxing un
til Wednesday, as he does not believe
more than 10 days hard training will
be necessary to put him in hape. Thus
far he has confined his training mostly
to road work to develop his wind.
Charley claims to be in fine condition
now.
Welsh and White met again last night
at the Ilayes-Jucksnu bout nt Ksmona.
The men were introduced to the crowd
and received a great hand.
Welsh continues a slight favorite in
the local betting. But the wager that
attracts most attention is the three to
one that White won't score a knockout.

Railroads Stocks Strong
Feature of Market
New York, Aug. 22. The New York
Evening Suu financial review today
says:
Operators iu stocks who had looked
forward to a substantial reaction from
the high prices recorded iu today's
early dealings found little iu the course
of the "general market, following the
initinl forward movement to encourage
the idea that anything more than quick
turns for short account would be profit
able at this particular period. Buying
power represented was euormous. A
Inrgo amount of stock came out on the
advances, but it wns so well absorbed
that the impression on .prices was small
in proportion to the number of shares.
Speculative attention, although fairly
well riveted upon United States steel
common, which made a new high rec
ord, was directed also toward runny
parts of the list, including other steel
shares, equipment issues, the Connor
land Reading, while the general rail-
ros.il group, especially In the late trad
ing found more followers than in Mon
day's operations.
Otitaido participation was heavy
heavier than had been reported in many
months. The profit taking sales in the
day we.re heavy in volume and at times
in the afternoon moderate recessions
from the early high points were record
ed. Rnilrond stocks were in far better de
mand as the session approached its
close, with strength in Krie, New York
Central, 1'iiioa Pacific, St. Paul and
Reading. While recoveries from realis
ing rectious were under way in va
rious ports of the list. Wall street 'a In
formation from Washington continued
to favor the idea that au adjustment of
the railroad labor controversy would be
effected.

Is Prisoner James Gaffene
As He Claims, Or Is He
Murderer Tortorici?
San Francisco, Aug. 22. A dark
skinned man paced slowly before the
witness stand in the superior court
room today that witnesses might have
the chance of studying his every pose.
He started each walk confidently
and ended it with shoulders dropping
and walk unsteady.
This man declares he is James Gaf
fene. an innocent man. But five ac
cusing hands pointed him out as I'ietro
Tortorici, the man who murdered Bing
gio Vilardo and then hacked the body
into pieces, hiding it in a sack. Only
once did hope come to the accused man.
ft was when Policeman James Deuser
took the stand.
"That man looks just like Tortorici
did 11 years ago," said the officer.
"Had 1 met him 11 years ago there
would be no doubt in my mind."
The case is one of the most remark
able in local criminal history..
The one defense is that there has
been a case of mistaken identity and
that somewhere there is a double, the
reol Tortorici. George Schmneke, a
laundry worker; Felipe Ferita and Mrs.
Ienn Orbent, nil former friends of
Tortorici, declared from the stand that
the man before them was the slayer.

Karly relief is promised in the car
shortage situation by a letter received
from General Manager Scott of the
Southern Pacifjc company nt the office
of tho public service commission this
morning.
in explaining the present shortage,
the general manager says that inabili
ty to get cars unloaded on the Atlantic
const through lack of stiippiug has tied
up about 5000 of the company's cars.
He states that early in tiie year the
company placed an order for 3000 new
cars, which owing to a shortage of la
tor and large war orders have not been
delivered, although the company had
the promise of early delivery. The
first shipment of these new box cars,
however, will be coming forward in a
few days, the company reversing its
usual custom and billing them through
empty and paying freight on them in
an effort to satisfy the demands of
the Pacific coast. The letter follows:
"We appreciate fully the seriousness
of the car situation, not only in Ore
gon but everywhere on the Pacific
coast. We have been sending empty
equipment regularly to Oregon to meet
the requirements there, iu addition to
all the loaded cars going in that di
rection, which of course as soon as un
loaded are available for use iu that
territory. We have delivered this
mouth 325 empties to Portland and to
day (August Hi) iinvc enroute 132 ad

have delivered llii.'i loaded cars to that
division. Mentiou is made of empties
to show we are not discriminating a
guinst Oregon shippers, but on the con
trary are assisting them in every way
possible.
' ' You ask what may be expected in
(lie future. We bone of course that
the situation will improve. We had
reason to believe we would not be con
fronted with a shortage this year, be
cnuse early in the year we placed an
order for 3000 cars and had the prom
ise of early delivery. On account of
shortage of labor and large war orders
being handled ill eastern territory the
i-ur ltii liti ii ir concerns have not been
